Great Idea Zoeysmom. I'm really curious how this poll turns out.

[b2H]

No one but the kids were responsible for their mother.  No one.

or maybe Brooks.....

[zoeysmom]

If I had to pick one person, it would have been Tamra because she caused the accident.  While she and Heather, Kelly and chose to FaceTime Vicki, I don't feel they should, especially Tamra,  have held Meghan and Shannon to a higher standard.  Of course, Michael and/or Briana should have been there.  That is their mother.

Tamra seemed well enough to throw Eddie a birthday party so I don't think she was physically unable to see to one of the causalities.

I voted no one, because I'm mean like that .  Actually, I would have voted "best boy" or "key grip", but they weren't options.   

[MsDiva2007]

Her worthless children. What child hears their mom has been airlifted to a hospital and claims they are sick and can't go?

[FlyingEgret]

Shoot - I voted for Kelly because Vicki tried to throw up in her lap and thus (of the people who were in Glamis) she should feel the closest to her and want to be by her side - but that was before I read the entire list.  I would have voted for Briana or Michael, but I guess it's ok to have a little diversity...

Jimmy, because I hate Jimmy......

[FozzyBear]

I'm not saying anyone should have actually gone, just that everyone all around could have put their stank attitudes aside for 5 minutes and talk to each other like adults.

[dosodog]

Fozzy Bear for the win! !!!!

[JennyMominFL]

I said her kids. I don't blame Meghan for not going...That's not my issue. IT was her behavior in the immediate aftermath of the accident that bothers me

[BogoGog24]

I voted Kelly because she's friends with Vicki and was going on on the phone about how Meghan and Shannon should have gone and seen her and I'm like "Well why don't you?" Ditto for Heather. Yes they had their kids there with them but there were other adults on the site that could have watched them. The driving thing is BS too. Call an Uber! 

I also voted for Vickj's kids. Briana claimed being sick with the flu and no one had Michael's contact info. Hmmm ok. Wouldn't the hospital have tried to contact someone in Vicki's family to let them know about the accident? 

The whole Meghan/Shannon thing irked me so much. Meghan and Shannon both have issues with Vicki and are not friends of hers. Why should they be obligated to go visit her, especially when Heather and Kelly are both squawking about it on the phone while the 2 of them sit on their asses at the camp. 

I'll give Tamra a pass because she was banged up from the accident and probably just wanted to get back to the camp and rest. 

IMO it was a game of hot potato. Kelly and Heather kept insisting someone go see her, yet they didn't go either, so clearly they thought someone should go see her but no one wanted to actually get stuck doing it, not even her own kids.

HaHaHa...bet Vicki's neck problem would have cleared up immediately if her Love Tank had a chance of a fill.

[bblancobrnx]

Her kids should have gone for sure...and they are the ONLY ones who should have been expected to go (though it would have been nice of her "friends" to go as well). Shoot, my brother broke his neck playing rugby while in college at an away game in Providence, RI while my parents were visiting their parents in Michigan. I made the the 2 hour drive from northwest CT to the hospital to check on him every day after work and then back home for a full week until I knew for sure he was gonna be fine. How someone can not go visit their immediate family in the hospital after a bad accident like that is stunning to me.

Correct, but I still voted No One.

I've started watching this series so I am just now to this season. I can't believe all the harping going on here, and I find it rich to sit in a trailer drinking beer and getting all righteously indignant about someone not driving 48 minutes to see someone in the hospital that they don't even like, when you are 2 hours away and claim to be best friends with the person in the hospital. Does the extra 75 min really make *that* much of a difference?

 

I might have more respect for Heather and Kelly if they had been like, we're leaving now, we don't want Vicki to be alone, can you two please go sit with her until we can get there? Then again, I don't like Heather or Kelly. I don't really like Meghan either, but I think Shannon seems decent.

I don't think I would have gone, unless it was couched as a favor to Heather or Kelly. How is it doing any good to visit with someone with whom you have an openly hostile relationship? Should that make Vicki feel better about herself that two people who openly despise her were shamed into coming to visit while the rest of her so called friends continued their party at the dunes? Actually, now that I type that, that would be an awesome thing for Vicki to realize.

I was late to OC, so I saw that episode not too long ago. I couldn't agree with you more. I was team Shannon and Meghan. If Heather and Kelly thought it would have been nice to go despite any differences to show support, okay, their opinion. But it wasn't cool how they made Shannon and Meghan out to be awful people.

I love the comment in the episode thread by a poster that Heather was just salty no one cared that she had been in flipped buggy as well. And you know Kelly just wanted another scapegoat to take the heat off her.

 

And really, what is unreasonable? To not want to drive 48 minutes to visit someone in the hospital who has treated you absolutely terribly and never apologized or acknowledged it (and who, by the way, is completely fine), or to not want to drive 2 hours to see your supposed close friend?

 

Reading through the various episode threads, I'm in the minority clearly, but I absolutely despise Heather. Sure, Tamra, Vicki, and Kelly are assholes, and Meghan is also pretty obnoxious, but Heather has this massive superiority complex that is, in my opinion, completely baffling (that she should feel superior). Yeah, she has money and she doesn't lose her shit on TV as often as the other women. She's still a willing participant on a completely ridiculous show (not saying I am above watching it, but we all know it's ridiculous).

I won’t go that far, but my dislike of her keeps growing and growing.

At one point I found her to be entertaining TV, but that is less and less.

[RealHousewife]

Kelly was the one I found the least bearable. Her mean streak was the worst imo.

I guess I should clarify. Kelly is definitely worse than Heather, but Kelly was humbled on a weekly basis each time she made an ass out of herself.

 

Heather  like, metaphorically  winks to the audience over how much above these other women she is, like she's laughing at all of them with us, instead of being one of them. She's one of them. She may be more composed, she may be better educated, and she may make better financial and personal decisions, but she's still one of them- an attention starved, fame seeking, drama llama with NO capacity for self awareness. She may act self deprecating at times, but it seems very insincere, and she comes across as oblivious most of the time.

 

ETA: Just watched the Ireland episode...oh my. I love Kelly's call to her husband..."I kept irritating everyone, and when they all asked me politely to stop, I argued with them over why they should not be annoyed. And then when I was called out for shit talking the Alpha HW, I retaliated by saying the absolutely cruelest, malicious low blow I could think to say, and now everyone is mad at me and I have NO idea why!"

 

Kelly is awful, no doubt. I don't think there is any other HW on OC or NY (the ones I watch) that is even close to how awful she is, and THAT is saying something.
