Stan39 December 8, 2018 Share December 8, 2018 Serious question for the board, anyone have a NEW show they can recommend that’s similar to the OLD VPR? I found myself bored and disinterested through most of the season premiere, checking my phone a lot, and not interested enough to rewind and watch what I missed. I think I’m giving up on the show and would like something similar to the old show (young, single, ATTRACTIVE, bartenders hanging out, screwing around, and not really caring). The show seems too fake and scripted now, and I don’t really care about these people as 30-somethings marrying each other and still working in a bar/restaurant. Has anyone picked up a new show they like? Thanks for suggestions. 1 Link to comment
Sun-Bun December 9, 2018 Share December 9, 2018 @Stan39, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend any of these shows, but there have been several attempts to recapture that magic VR formula—-“What Happens at The Abbey” was the E! channel’s obvious copy in 2017. I never watched it but it must’ve sucked since it didn’t get a second season and almost any of the garbage on that channel seems to get picked up. Which brings me to the grossness that is E!’s “Very Cavilleri”, a shitshow I only watched because it’s filmed here in my city of Nashville—-somehow it got a second season, and it’s basically Kristen Cavilleri in the LVR role as she runs her shitty vanity boutique and oversees all her hired help/assistants. There’s one particularly thirsty bitch on there who essentially is doing the Stassi S1-S2 schtick. And then there’s Lindsay Lohan’s upcoming reality show on MTV in January, “Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club.” I’m gonna hate watch that shit just so I can see what kind of slimy douches LL would hire to work in her club. 5 Link to comment

Haha. Thanks for the (very honest) opinions. I liked parts of Very Cavilleri, so we’ll see what happens next season. I also liked Music City on CMT. By the guy who made the Hills, but based in Nashville and about young people trying to make it in music. The first season was really good, everybody was nice to everyone and people are really trying to make careers (rather than it being setup for the show). 2 Link to comment

geauxaway March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 Welp! My bestie and I have booked a VPR trip to LA. We are total homers, and we are good with that. Neither of us have ever been to LA. It was between this and a jersey Shore trip. I honestly cannot wait! Bring on the goat cheese balls and pumptini’s!!! 1 13 Link to comment
ghoulina March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 That sounds so fun! We expect lots of details!!!! Make sure you hit up the Taco Bell. LOL 5 1 Link to comment
walnutqueen March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 (edited) Have Taco Bell delivered (preferably before you sample the mediocre fare at SUR). If you're hungover and receiving an IV cocktail in your hotel room, so much the better. And if Jax is behind the bar, order a mojito (or any other muddled drink).

I've actually heard that the food at TomTom is actually good as opposed to the food at Villa Blanca, SUR, and Pump. I've heard that the drinks are better at TomTom too. This is a little bit on the old side, but Jezebel has a decent review of all of the existing restaurants at that time. https://jezebel.com/i-cant-get-over-how-bad-it-was-a-lisa-vanderpump-resta-1688222144 2 4 Link to comment

Pinke March 29, 2019 Share March 29, 2019 (edited) @geauxaway Have fun on your trip!

hoodooznoodooz March 29, 2019 Share March 29, 2019 (edited) I hope that I am not violating any rules, but I wonder if I could ask you all a favor? My son has a youtube channel. He is in a contest for most subscribers. Do you suppose you could hit the red & white subscribe button? If you google The Purplest Dragon youtube it should come up. He has 15 subscribers now. He has posted about 15 videos. There’s a cute hamster video. Thank you in advance for your help. Apologies in advance, if I annoyed you or broke a rule here.

We met Max, Guillermo and Jeremy. They were all super nice and gracious. I talked to Max for a bit, he was working his ass off and stopped every time someone asked to take a pic with him. I told him thank you so much I appreciate you and he said no no no it’s my pleasure. Jeremy was tending bar at the main bar, he was a total sweetheart. It was a nice time! 10 Link to comment

He has discussed the Housewives and has entered Scandoval. He is an empath, intuitive and channel has business experience start-up and management, worked in the entertainment industry and in academia. Interesting conversations if you are into the energy part of life. He has done two specifically on rachel. I will put them in her thread.

princelina July 23, 2023 Share July 23, 2023 I have a Facebook friend who is currently visiting her daughter who lives in LA - she just posted a pic of them at Schwartz & Sandy's and they ran into Tom Schwartz! He posed for a pic with her and was wearing a ball cap and his glasses, but looks much slimmer in the face and torso than I remember him being last season! Maybe his break from Sandy was healthy for him in other ways 😃 1 1 Link to comment
