I still don't care or think Vanderpump is evil. Also, I love Erika and hope she comes back. Her fight with Kathryn was fun. She's my mvp this season.

It's up to interpretation, but it certainly doesn't seem empathetic to me. I'm not saying Ken owes Yolanda any empathy or kindness after she accused him of manhandling her, but I'm not sure why Ken's comments are automatically excused as being concerned about her health.

Popular Post film noire May 4, 2016 Popular Post Share May 4, 2016 (edited) Oh, Eileen. Wish you'd never left the set of Y & R, just to show us your ass (and with all the grace of a baboon in a zoo reading a Miss Manners book while displaying both cheeks). Despite all her self-help verbiage, her concept of real 'bonding' is sharing pain with near strangers on a tv show as an act of deepening friendship. (psst, Eileen? There's a free seat at Kim's next meeting -- and pro tip: one of the key steps is knowing that intimacy through pain is not bonding, it's co-dependent. But keep on giving those impromptu lectures on personal growth!) Oh, LVP. Somehow, I ended up on your team. These goddamn Housewife shows rip me to shreds, playing havoc with my psyche. I careen from one to another like a pinball -- while simultaneously tracking manipulative editing, scripting and camera work like a film student at UCLA watching Citizen Kane -- but still, I rise. To the bait. Every time. That's how you won my heart. Here it is in a pink box, labeled "Pussy" (cuz that word is so value-neutral in your easy breezy homeland -- that blessed realm of monarchs, Burke's peerage and classist rules of engagement -- that any reference to a woman's vulva is seen as so much tea and jam.) Oh, Kyle. Stop reminding me of Faye Resnick. I somehow manage to forget About That, and then you remind me About That, and then I hate you all over again (and have to imagine myself in your place with LVP -- me in a black neoprene caftan -- EAST COAST, REPRESENT! -- LVP both intrigued and frightened of my constant interrogations about the etymology of pussy.) Kathryn -- oh, I kinda like you. Who saw THAT coming? (Not me, by any means.) Loved the colour of your dress, although the cut wasn't quite right. (Reminded me too much of my Christmas Eve green velvet dress when I was a kid, circa mid-seventies. Too "One Day at a Time", maybe.) Erika; oh! How powerless you look -- playing the c*nt card in a bid for cutting edge status, while lowering your voice and eyes in your husband's presence like an obedient geisha. Oh, Lisa Rinna; poor fucking Harry, having to listen to you chow chow this shit for the next six months. Strap it on, Harry, strap it on. Oh -- and Brandi? Still got the world on a tampon string, I see. Edited May 4, 2016 by film noire 46 Link to comment

There is no wrong way to be, react or feel. They all think that others should respond as they desire. Having been a couples/relationship counselor for 30 years I have NEVER experienced this level of unawareness. I taught a high school course. My students knew more coming in than these women know now.

renatae May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 (edited) Well, due to my DVR cutting out at the very end, I missed whatever Rinna's "compliment" to LVP was. Would not be surprised if she didn't give her one. I swear in one of the clips she said that LVP didn't tell her to say anything, but that she nevertheless felt manipulated into bringing up the "M" word. I guess she is some sort of telepath or something Yolanda compared having Kim on the show to having Brandi on the show, but, no, idiot, it is not the same. First of all, Kim didn't come just to talk smack, and she was there for anyone to address or contest. Brandi's way - being taped so no one can reciprocate, and having nothing much to say but evil, well, she can take a hike. It's just as she said, "I'm here drinking wine, and no one can say anything." Coward. I see Eileen has adopted that witch face permanently. Edited May 4, 2016 by renatae 20 Link to comment
Jel May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 Bah, that episode felt like a gang up, and I now like Lisa V even more because it's activated my natural stick-up-for-the-underdog tendencies. That defensive apology Eileen gave Lisa would not have met Eileen's standards had it been from Lisa to ED. But I don't expect next season to be devoted to LVP's quest for the correct apology. And btw, Eileen, when DID the affair start? Just curious. I can't relate to Erika at all for a lot of reasons. One thing she said struck me and that was women (girls) have never liked her. The implication is, jealousy, but maybe the reality is girls didn't like you because you were what we used to call in my HS a two-faced bitch? Loved her objection that what she said to Kathryn was IN CONFIDENCE while being filmed for a tv show. She can get off my tv anytime. Rinna is the kind of person who likes to move forward, everyone! Slash and burn. OWN IT. Move on. How about instead you grow up a little, Lisa Rinna, and stop saying and things you need to later OWN. Stop saying things like, "This mouth" while pointing to your mouth, like your mouth is a crazed preschooler at a birthday party who just found all the candy. Just a thought. Brandi, ugh. Smug looks ugly. I ended up this season liking LVP, Kyle and Kathryn -- hope they are back. I expect the mother of GiGi Hadid to be back (if she wants to be). I would very much like to bid Rinna, Eileen and Erika good day. 10 minutes ago, renatae said: Well, due to my DVR cutting out at the very end, I missed whatever Rinna's "compliment" to LVP was.

It's almost like he wants everyone to dump on her at this reunion. I thought she was his favorite yet he keeps calling her out on the carpet repeatedly. I wonder what she did to get on his bad side. I wondered about this also. He really seemed to be going after her, and it was odd. All he does is continually reinforce my opinion that someone else needs to be hosting these reunions. He was so gleeful when Brandi started talking; you could tell he thought the other HW's were going to light into her - but they dismissed her pretty quickly because she had no business being there. So that backfired, and he goes right back to the Munchausen. A couple of other points - if LVP doesn't want to share what happened to her, she doesn't have to. Maybe she doesn't want to bond with these women (and who could blame her?). That whole segment about her having to open up so they could be friends was just ridiculous. LVP is very smart not to think for one second it will help her bond with these b*tches. They should stop pretending to be friends - for the most part, they are co-workers who are forced to interact with each other. And, if she shares with these women, it airs on Bravo and we all get to know about it. Maybe, just maybe, she doesn't want that. Her choice, not Eileen's or Yolandas. I don't see Yolanda sharing much about her divorce from the King. Eileen can call LVP a manipulator all day long, yet she (Eileen) is clearly Rinna's puppetmaster. Kyle was a non-starter. I think she was determined not to get involved in any controversy, so she was pretty quiet. But here again, her friendship with LVP is no one's business but theirs. I'm glad it's over - one of the worst seasons ever. I'm glad Andy enjoyed it. I think he was in the minority. 18 Link to comment

HumblePi May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 (edited) The two Lisa's had one last chance to get it right towards the end of the reunion. Andy asks the two Lisa's "how do you think you can move forward with your friendship?" Lisa Rinna says, "I'm not somebody who holds grudges and I like to move forward in life and life is just too short. So yeah, in the bigger picture I would like to move forward because I don't like to hold grudges. I'm just disappointed and sad that it would come to this." Almost instantly Lisa Vanderpump says, "well I'm disappointed in you too." Hold on..... did I hear it right? I rewound and yep, I heard that right. Lisa Rinna did not say that she was disappointed in LisaV, she said 'disappointed that it would come to this' and immediately LisaV translated that statement into 'I'm disappointed in you'. This is where semantics come into play and affect their relationships. Lisa Rinna said and meant one thing and Lisa Vanderpump heard it but in her mind translated it to her way of thinking. It's the method that LisaV uses to either project or protect her true feelings. That's a little mind-fucking that she does constantly. She made it seem as though Lisa Rinna actually said the words "I'm disappointed in you", which she did not say. Edited May 4, 2016 by HumblePi 12 Link to comment

Popular Post SistaLadybug May 4, 2016 Popular Post Share May 4, 2016 The reunion episodes have been tedious but I loved that small moment when Andy asked Lisa V if she had anyone to whom she'd like to apologize and she flatly said, "No". No embellishment, no further reasoning or explanation. Just ... "No". Good. GOOD. Eileen wouldn't have accepted the apology. Rinna doesn't deserve one. Yolanda is a pretentious bitch who glories in the demise of Vanderpump's friendship with Mohammad so she shouldn't need one since I'm sure she feels vindicated. I think it's asinine for folks to apologize for things if those apologies aren't meant. Vanderpump would've looked better to me throughout the season if she'd given that same flat "no" to Eileen those 50-11 times Eileen brought up the affair bullshit. "I've apologized once. It was meant. If you don't accept it, fine. But will you receive another? No." THAT'S why I like Lisa Vanderpump. Do I think she's a snob? Oh, yes. She's probably just as frosty and standoffish as present and past co-stars have claimed she is. And I FUCKING LOVE IT. That's what I watch RHOBH to see - women who think their shit don't stink. No one is required to go through every hardship they've ever had in life to prove they're worthy of friendship. If she needs to have had her ass kicked, or have fucked married men or have a disease of some sort, or whateverthehell for y'all to "bond", then your bonding behaviors are weird. I'm not someone who goes around telling my friends about every time my life has gone to shit, either, and I'm bonded quite well with my friends. What they wanted was to see Vanderpump brought low - for her to prove that she cries or worries or whatever. She doesn't owe them shit. If she wants to live in a pink glittery world full of ponies and puppies, that's her right. 55 Link to comment

Nope - she's not that girl either. I'm glad that Kyle has learned this and accepted it instead of getting upset every time she thinks LVP has wronged her.

phoenix780 May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 Vanderpump may just have gone too far in trying to create the storylines, farther than the producers want, hence this season of scolding. She'll be more careful, more subtle next season (or the next season she's on). After all this talking I'm still in the same place with her. She's manipulative, imho, and I don't really care because I don't think she's malicious. She told a person on a reality show to discuss something on camera (do their job). She used the word affair with another who had nothing going on. Big fricking deal. I don't hate Eileen or Rinna though. At least we got something other than Lyme because of them. Heck, the one who should be faulted imho is Kyle for bringing nothing this season. 3 Link to comment

Popular Post RHJunkie May 4, 2016 Popular Post Share May 4, 2016 The entire reunion was focused on LVP. They didn't allow for a real discussion. Between the issues that were addressed, the social media questions that were selected for air and Andy's commentary, everything was focused on making LVP accountable when all season long, there was a lot of online commentary that addressed inconsistencies with Yolanda, Eileen and LR. None of those were really addressed well. It all found it's way back to LVP. Yet she sat there, listened to everyone say bad things about her, she kept a calm voice and in the end, she didn't offer a single apology and I loved it, lol. They collectively tried to take her out at her knees and she refused to give them what they wanted. LVP is not without faults and there are certainly times where she owes an apology and seems to have too much pride to give it - but to see the effort but in by the women and production to single out only her behaviour, it was a nice middle finger to all of them for her to say that she didn't have anything else to say to them. After everything I've heard, I'm convinced that these women feel betrayed by LVP when she stops co-signing their bad behaviour leaving them to deal with the drama they've created. I think they're using her as a scapegoat to deflect from the fact that the things they've said and done or all things that were part of their own agenda but they feel that LVP should share the blame because she was seemingly encouraging or defending their behaviour. All of the women co-sign bad behaviour when it involves their friend. Crying manipulation doesn't work in my books. I do think LVP has the qualities to be a great manipulator but I don't think these women in particular are being manipulated. It's easy to just re-use a word that was used in the past - helps to create a trend, doesn't mean that the trend is accurate depiction of reality. 28 Link to comment

CTO May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 (edited) 1 hour ago, HumblePi said: The two Lisa's had one last chance to get it right towards the end of the reunion. Andy asks the two Lisa's "how do you think you can move forward with your friendship?" Lisa Rinna says, "I'm not somebody who holds grudges and I like to move forward in life and life is just too short. So yeah, in the bigger picture I would like to move forward because I don't like to hold grudges. I'm just disappointed and sad that it would come to this." Almost instantly Lisa Vanderpump says, "well I'm disappointed in you too." Hold on..... did I hear it right? I rewound and yep, I heard that right. Lisa Rinna did not say that she was disappointed in LisaV, she said 'disappointed that it would come to this' and immediately LisaV translated that statement into 'I'm disappointed in you'. This is where semantics come into play and affect their relationships. Lisa Rinna said and meant one thing and Lisa Vanderpump heard it but in her mind translated it to her way of thinking. It's the method that LisaV uses to either project or protect her true feelings. That's a little mind-fucking that she does constantly. She made it seem as though Lisa Rinna actually said the words "I'm disappointed in you", which she did not say. Ok I see it opposite and this is my issue with Rinna. This also may explain why the ladies see LVP as manipulative. LVP is smart. She has run clubs, bars, huge businesses all dealing with people. She is by now a wizard at understanding people. No blame for that, it's a skill she learned and it's valuable. But the other women don't have that skill to same degree, if at all in some cases. When LVP responds or says something, she's genuinely coming from a place of reading a situation, person or statement correctly. The problem is exactly that - LVP reads them CORRECTLY which prevents them having their smoke screens in place. The problem is, perhaps, LVP is UNAWARE that she's doing this because she's just naturally being and expressing herself and doesn't understand it offends people. (Ironic considering...Brandi has same problem...) HumblePi, good eye to focus on this. We disagree on interpretation but it's a great bit to observe and highlight. I see this as Rinna projecting and gaslighting LVP. I see all of them, when they find fault with LVP, as a variation on that tactic. Incidentally, this may be why LVP was initially friends with Brandi and why she dislikes her so much now. They share this in common, LVP and Brandi. They both read people well. That clip of Brandi was something none of us wanted or needed but every single woman she directed a comment toward looked at the time as if "oh shit she's reading me exactly right and saying it out loud". That's not a good way for Brandi to go through life but it doesn't mean she was wrong. In the same vein, LVP isn't playing chess like Bobby Fischer, she's actually, possibly, as smart as Bobby Fischer and smarts are not really something to find fault with are they? Unless these women prefer the company of non-intelligent people... ? Does anyone else see this? Edited May 4, 2016 by CTO Clarifying point or trying to! 9 Link to comment

I'm in that age group and he is what I think a hubby should be..loyal to his wife all the way...GO KEN! Rinna would "throw up" if her husband said mean things about the others? Uh..sure....So your husband has NEVER defended you ,at home, when you complain? OK then..... Andy said we would "talk about it" as to Why in the hell the succubus was there (albeit on tape) But it was never mentioned. BG is a coward. She only said all that because she was on tape and she was safe. Bitch. I don't have a problem with what Ken said. He was at home with his wife and he was supporting her. Problem is cameras were there but he's not a man afraid to state his opinion if it will relieve his wife's pain. That's a good spouse in my book. Rinna lies. A lot. Maybe about everything. I actually feel sorry for Brandi and hope she gets off this train of letting Bravo and Andy use her. Because they always hurt her by getting her to hurt herself doing this! She plays into their hands for a paycheque because she needs the money. I'm not piling on her for it. I don't like it either but I don't see that any of these women don't do the same just with better technique. 4 Link to comment
JAYJAY1979 May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 does Andy and the other women save Kyle/Kathryn realize ganging up on LVP is what keeps making LVP popular? Is LVP manipulative and snobby? Yes! Is LVP a grudge holder? Yes! Are the other women on this shoe those things? Yes! My mom suspects Kyle truly doesn't like LVP..but learned her lesson in turning against her in season 3 and 4...hence this loyalty stuff we saw in season 5 and 6. 4 Link to comment
beaker73 May 4, 2016 Share May 4, 2016 I haven't read through all the posts yet, but I just wanted to give a big thank you to all all you posters that endured all three parts of this crap fest. I skipped Part 2 because I can't stomach Kim and I didn't want to watch the women grovel at Yo's feet. I had plans to watch Part 3, but then I heard She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named made an appearance, so I'm out. What a shitty season. 8 Link to comment
