Duke2801 June 7, 2016 Share June 7, 2016 (edited) 7 hours ago, Sonoma said: I think Thomas and Kathryn are individually gross and even more disgusting together. I don't blame Cameran one bit for not wanting to be around them and I cheer her on when she acts like a big old bitch about it. She was never Kathryn's friend, she only tolerated her because of Thomas. She doesn't owe Kathryn one bit of anything and good for her for being honest about it. I also think using but the "But she's a mother!", "But she has pregnancy hormones!" "But she has pregnancy brains", etc. complete bullshit. She was trash before she got pregnant and she's trash as a mom. I don't care what came out of her vagina. Same with Thomas and his coked-up antics. As Cameran's mom brilliantly put it-- any idiot can have a baby. These trashy idiots had two. I hate it when people are given free passes because they popped out a kid. I also hate them for making me root for Whitney and Landon against them. And I don't buy for one minute that Whitney was love-sick over anyone without a penis. So, so sick of them and I just fast-forward their vomit-inducing scenes together. These poor children were not conceived out of love and their parents are nothing but toxic to each other and anyone around them. Hopefully by the time they're old enough to know better, Thomas and Kathryn will have gone their romantic separate ways permanently. And again, thank you to Cameran's mom for going against reality show trope about having babies being the ultimate goal in every woman's life. Their primary goal should be getting their life together before bringing innocent victims into their narcissistic mess. Most of these Bravo women use having children as financial security, a relationship trap, and/or a selfish means to fill an emotional void. Whitney?? Pat?? That you? J/K ;) And I certainly don't disagree with your overall sentiment. Especially the last paragraph! I am loving Mrs. Cameron's mom. I also think it's gross how he's already favoring St. Julien and he's only a day or so old at this point. Whoever called him a "drunken scoundrel" was so on the money! Regarding the fortunate son: damn he is soooo teeny-tiny. He wasn't considered a preemie, was he? I think Kensie is a cutie and mostly seems like a happy, well-adjusted child. But she is STILL, more or less, a baby herself. I was exhausted just looking at the 2 of them thinking of how much work raising a toddler and a newborn at once would be. But then again, she's young and has the energy, I supposed. Thomas, on the other hand, not so much. Quote Again, totally staged except the client was one heck of a thespian...he didn't break character for a second. Dead serious. No smile, while Shep stumbles and goofs off half an inch away from him. So for Achievement in Bit Part Acting, the Oscar goes to : Grey beard man house-shopping with Cameran and Shep. Bravo! Standing O! Exactly! If anybody thought that scene played out the way it did without some nudging or outright direction from production, well, I've got some swamp land in South Carolina that I can sell you for a song. Clearly that whole "Shep and Cam buddy up to sell real estate" was a sham solely for the cameras, in and of itself. Quote How in the hell does Craig know that Kathryn slept with someone else besides T-Rav the weekend she conceived? Because they are friends and co-workers who live in the same tiny town where gossip spreads like wildfire. Besides Craig didn't even say exactly that. He said she was dating somebody else at the time that Kensington was supposedly conceived. I'm sure lots of other people knew this as well. Edited June 7, 2016 by Duke2801 1 Link to comment

bichonblitz June 7, 2016 Share June 7, 2016 So Craig is back on the lawyer train again. Guess he decide working with JD actually meant patience and WORK and he wasn't having any of that. I wish that lawyer he met with again would have told him to come back after he grows the fuck up. He should have at least told him not to contact him again until he passes the BAR, then they could have a serious conversation. These people are really fading fast. They have nothing going on.

Her performance in "Landon's True Feelings Revealed" was terrible. That whole scene was staged, but they purposely didn't tell Shep what the real point of the scene was, hence that got that remarkable wine-spit out of him. Just the fact that Shep brought the conversation up at Patricia's Chauvinist Pig Dinner means it's officially a film-able storyline. I know the cast complained that production drove this season's storylines and this one is so obvious.

I'd also like to recognize The Media Guru for flying in from New York to coldly crush Landon's dreams in less than two minutes. I don't know why everyone is so perplexed by Craig's choice to put lawyering on the back burner. No firm will give him the time off for the show and he clearly didn't graduate with grades that would give him top prospects. He's making so much more money doing this than he could make at any firm that would have him. He's been out of school for 3 years. He would likely only get work at a small or medium sized firm. He'd have to work 60+ hours a week to make $100 thousand per year. On the show, he gets excess of a $100 thousand for three months of work. He just needs to take the February bar. Every year that passes makes it that much harder to pass the bar because he's forgetting core concepts that he learned in school. 6 Link to comment

The network was good to me and to their word. I was allowed to wax nostalgically and poetically on what I love about the city. My brand was prominently featured. They even asked me to create a facsimile of a gala event, which I dubbed Founders’ Ball, to give the audience a taste of society. Of course it was exaggerated because I am exaggerated. But there were some good people who braved the cameras and attended to support me. And that was the generosity that makes me love the people here all the more. 7 Link to comment

Kathryn has tweeted several times that paternity tests were conducted at something like 15 weeks and proved conclusively the baby was Thomas'. I think playing up the "inconclusive" thing is ALL for the drama. I don't think Thomas Ravenel would just accept a son as his own if he weren't certain. Why should he get stuck paying to raise another man's child? He was not married to Kathryn so owes her nothing if the baby is not his. Now they're going to court, apparently, to settle support and visitation so now would be the time to declare or deny paternity, based on a "conclusive" test. 6 Link to comment

Maybe my experience is limited, but that scene was so loopy to me, it was like something outta sci-fi. Let's just say I thought Mama Cammy almost sounded like Mother Theresa in her understanding nature. Her attitude, while maybe quite sensible indeed, seemed pretty darned unusual to me. Now, is she really a very sweet lady (we have no reason as of yet to doubt this) or was she playing Mother Theresa for the Bravo cams? Or is Momma Cammy thinking Cam's sis will spit out some grandchildren for her -- as Cam implied? So then Cam is off the hook & the pressure is off her to have kids. Idk, not sure what was going on, but that whole scene with Cams & Momma Cammy felt very forced & fake to me. 1 Link to comment

I hear it yet I can't define it or quite describe it. There is a valley girl quality to it but its something about the tone or her ability to consistently modulate/control the tone. She definitely looked a fool again meeting with that Lockhart guy. BTW I also wondered what he was doing in Charleston, as their first meeting was in NYC. Is he from there or does he have a vacation home there? As she was leaving , she said, enjoy your stay and they met in a house, not a hotel. If she wants to write about travel, then why doesn't she get a job at a travel publication ? Oh, that's right, she might have to pay her dues and start at the unglorified bottom....and really work.

Why would Thom-ass do that if he wasn't involved with this show somehow? Anyway, he is ALWAYS insistent that his shows are not scripted, so these implications of fakery from cast members would definitely bug him. And I assumed Bravo in general does not like these sort of implications either. I seem to remember Tamra's idiot son Ryan making similar statements & he was shut down lickity split. Let's see if the same thing happens here. Maybe cast members from this show are not under the same scrutiny? I find that hard to believe. Hate to say this, but I understand & agree with (but only to a small degree) the earlier comment on the handsomeness of Thom-ass. It's strange to me. It really is. Occasionally, he does look extremely handsome. And other times (maybe when he's drunk off his ass, which seems to be most of the time -- at least when we see him) his nose has that bulby look of a haggard old boozehound & I don't think he's handsome in the least.

RedHawk June 7, 2016 Share June 7, 2016 I agree about Thomas. We're the same age and of similar background and at times (when he's acting sober, calm, and gentlemanly) I see him as attractive. He actually resembles my father's side of my family, who are mostly English but have some French Huguenot blood. 3 Link to comment

Well, I do hope for poor widdle Snowflake's sake she merely had some very poorly written storylines in this ep. Cuz otherwise she is gonna be rooming with Kelly Bensimon in a loony bin somewhere. To me, any gal saying "I love you" to Horseteeth would make her way nuttier than Kelly ever was or could be. Edited June 7, 2016 by ScoobieDoobs 1 Link to comment
berly57 June 7, 2016 Share June 7, 2016 Brace yourselves, my fellow Snowflake devotees -- LOL. I have a very, very potential job offer with our special little lady. Ha! Back @ the beginning of May, sent her/site and email saying this: Landon (or whoever reads this), Truly enjoy you on Southern Charm and very happy you have "found your niche". Just wanted to shoot you a quick note re: your website. Under your Roam Worthy? section,emailng needs to be changed to emailing.I'm a bit of a proofreading nut, so stuff like this pops out to me. I just hate to see a misspelled word, especially on a brand-new website. Good luck to you with everything you do! Today, got this: ROAM Guide 6:29 PM (1 hour ago) to me Thank you so much for checking it out, and taking the time to let us know. I will reach out when we can afford to take on a full-time editor, you got the eye!! haha We are excited to share this journey with you. All my best, x Anna Please, please try not to be envious -- lmao 12 Link to comment
RedHawk June 8, 2016 Share June 8, 2016 (edited) I wonder if the show is at the point where the producers don't care if a castmember breaks the 4th wall on social media. I really question another season. I mean, sure, they can keep it going, and I'll keep watching, but I just don't see where they're going to get fresh storylines. None of the current cast are looking that good (in many senses) after 3 seasons, and their stories mostly seem to be treading water or just played out. Whit and Cameran in themselves have little of interest going on. Craig is becoming a re-tread though I do like seeing his relationship with Naomie. Landon is hopeless. Shep's gonna keep chasing girls, and while he's witty his whole routine has become boring and rather off-putting. Pat, eh. Cooper, fine in small doses. Let's not even imagine another season of Thomas and Kathryn drama. There's nowhere new for them to go other than a marriage (highly unlikely!) or another baby (no, just NO). Season 4 probably needs to be a big refresh/reboot with fresh Charlestonians. Edited June 8, 2016 by RedHawk 8 Link to comment
Bronzedog June 8, 2016 Share June 8, 2016 Craig's arrogance may eventually come back and bite him in the ass. I think the maximum shelf life for this show is 3 more years. I personally have never believed that Craig will ever be a lawyer, but, if he takes the bar in the next 3 years and continues putting off his career, he's not going to be on the list for fast tracking by any law firm. A whole lot of new lawyers join the work force every year. Especially if he mentions in his interview that he never misses a trip for a job. 6 Link to comment
FanOfTheFans June 8, 2016 Share June 8, 2016 Cam's Mom advice is correct in regards to any fool can have a baby. The hard part comes when you have to raise said baby, hopefully into a well adjusted adult. That's no joke there. It's hard work. When I think about having to get kids through the teen years again, well it exhausts me just thinking about it. Personally, I have never pressured my kids for grandchildren either. I am pretty sure Craig gave up the law temporarily for reality fame. That's fine but if he had been smart, shouldn't he have taken the bar fresh out of law school, before he forgets his education. I mean, at least for a back-up plan. 6 Link to comment

I mean, at least for a back-up plan. Boy, do you have that right! When I was in law school, everyone in my class either took the bar immediately after -- or ended up never taking it. We know this thru alumni surveys. Is this typical? Yeah, it is -- because it's just so much easier when this info is fresh in your head. Most still take a prep course before taking the bar, even if taking it immediately after graduating law school. I took the bar for a different state than one I had already passed it in -- 10 years after I graduated law school. Man, it wasn't easy. BUT I had been working as a lawyer for 10 years & the experience helped me immensely. But there were areas I had not worked in & much I had forgotten from law school. The prep class helped me enormously to pass the bar again. But I had to go at nite, in addition to working an 80 hour week. I just did what I had to do. Kinda doubt Craig would. Oh, Craigie, the law career just ain't gonna happen for ya, is it? As Whit said -- he's gone Hollywood. Good luck with that move, Craigie-poo. 5 Link to comment
Bronzedog June 8, 2016 Share June 8, 2016 Yeah. I think instant gratification Craig may eventually fall flat on his face. 4 Link to comment
