S07.E12: Feeding A Need

[Tara Ariano]

Quote

Lisa Rinna confronts Eden over "near death" accusations. Also, Lisa Vanderpump buys her son a condo; a show inspired by Kyle's childhood becomes more of a reality; and Lisa Rinna is honored with an award, but Dorit has increasing suspicions about her.

[Pickles]

Dorit's baby girl is darling.

[Keywestclubkid]

for a woman who can remember vivid details of what everyone else said I find it odd she's trying to use the I don't remember still.... stop trying to act like eden did this horrific thing to you. you said it you lied you tried to throw her under the bus just own it Jesus 

[Emmeline]

I agree her Dorit's children are adorable and off limits on blogs and forums.  I am just appalled by the accolades to Lisa For her charitable works.  I feel sick.

[Straycat80]

This episode was a snoozefest.

I want LVP to adopt me. Just buy me a house or condo, I can decorate it myself.

Eden is kind of pathetic. She might be getting catfished and it was sad how hopeful she was that Kyle 'might' like her. 

[charming]

Way too much Lisa Rinna this ep. I'm astonished at her attempted spin casting herself as the victim of Eden's lies. If I have to hear her righteous indignation one more time I will scream.

Dorit has great style and her babies are adorable. 

It's wonderful to see Max get it together, become more responsible and get a fully furnished condo. 

[chick binewski]

I'm sorry I know it's not until next week but WHAT THE HELL is etched in Ken's brain? I mean - it must be serious because LVP was poking herself in the eye trying to make herself cry.

My first thought was-- oh no, did something happen to Giggy??

Dorits wee ones melt my cold black heart just a smidge. So presh!

[BlackMamba]

Meh. 
Dry episode. 

The only thing I found remotely humorous was Lisa R. was steadily trying to pile on her lies.   She's still running with the lie she doesn't remember but now she has to cover her tracks or try to deflect everything onto Eden.   Whatever impact, it must worked enough on Eden, because she didn't speak much once they all got at the hunger drive.  Eden wanted to tell Kyle but Lisa R was being a watchful eye. 

Anyhow I am slowly liking Dorit the last few weeks.  Don't know how long it will but Dorit has is actually listening, keeping her mouth closed, being the observant one and exposing later.  I'm sure LVP has coached her up how to play the reality tv game.  I like her being a little detective and spilling tea to Eden in order to get more info. 

Jagger ??? what an adorable little boy.  I can look at that sweet smile all day. 

Oh, did you all hear the Soap Opera Digest Awards weren't real awards.  Least not to Lisa R.  Just to give you all some history from this soap fan, Lisa won a newcomer of the year award and best couple for Days voted by - THE FANS .  They were the only awards she owned up until tonight's episode.  She should be appreciative of those awards because the fans didn't have to award her shit.  Those fans liked Rinna back then and some still do for Days.  I can only imagine if a Beyonce or Taylor Swift dismissed fan awards as being not real awards in the social media climate.  All I'm saying is be grateful Lisa R., because without soap fans, you wouldn't have been known if it wasn't for them.

Dorit's kids are so cute and I feel bad for judging her as a mom earlier in the season. The more I see her with them, the more it's clear that she's an active presence in their lives.

I can't even describe how nice it was to have an Eileen-free episode. More of those, please!

Also, I finally admitted to myself tonight that I really like Erika Girardi. However, I am and always will be allergic to Erika Jayne. 

[chick binewski]

Random thoughts: Rinna needs to lose those clip-on highlights and I've had less awkward conversations during pap smears than Tom & Erika had at lunch. 

[nexxie]

Interesting that Kyle, Kim and Kathy were in the room together for the births of all their children - hopefully they have smoothed out the recent rough edges.

[Pickles]

I thought Kim looked really pretty in this episode. Kyle is looking great this season.

I agree.  Kyle has been dressing how she's worth.  I haven't been seeing her in oversized or questionable styles.  I think has finally gotten herself a stylist.

I am going to take a guess that one of their dogs had to be put down and neither Ken or Lisa were fake crying IMO.

[dbell1]

I really wanted Rinna to fall into the giant mixer at the food bank. 

Loved Dorit's children, the ripped clothes can go though.

Tom & Erika really do seem to have a special arrangement - friends with private planes and other benefits.

Oh, I hope not.  Lisa and Ken love their animals so much.  

 

ETA:  Well, it's not Giggy or Harrison - they're both on WWHL right now (and, all glittered up, poor things!)

Jiggy is currently on WWHL so he's not who Ken is crying about.

Vulture Recap:  http://www.vulture.com/2017/02/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills-recap-season-7-episode-12.html  Surprisingly warm.  Thankfully he glosses over the KIm/Rinna/Eden sobriety crap. 

[CrinkleCutCat]

I do not believe for one minute that Lisa Rinna does not remember what she said to Eden about Kim (when they saw each other at the store the day after game night). All this anger directed at Eden is just Rinna ACTING, darling.... trying to convince everyone she doesn't recall what she said. What a piece of work.

Edited February 22, 2017 by CrinkleCutCat
That one comma was too important to not be added.

[Dutchgirl]

Usually the board is lit up right about now....boring episode? Haven't watched yet but understand it was Rinna-centred. Pity.

It is interesting you say this because since the beginning I have felt from the moment Rinna was hired to do the show she has tried to make the show hers.  SHe is just not that interesting.   To make things work she uses Eileen as a crutch, and she is a weak crutch.  Soap opera audiences are as different as RH audiences and Erika Jayne concert audiences.

I find Rinna infuriating with her ridiculous claims of telephone game.  Now it is Kyle's fault. http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills/season-7/blogs/lisa-rinna/lisa-rinna-i-would-like-to-show-my  In the telephone game the facts are wildly distorted as they are passed around the room.  There are three constants in this story, Rinna said Kim is mostly sober, Kyle is her enabler and Kim is near death.  These remain constants and there is no way Rinna's intent is misunderstood.

As LVP said, Rinna has rage and regret syndrome.  She rages and then regrets when  others disapprove.

[Wings]

I am just watching now.  Rinna cannot understand why she is not respected.    Funny in a subtle chuckle kind of way.  A chuckle that says, this shit again?  I love that Lisa and Ken bought Max a condo.  I would love to have that ability.  Good for them.

Man she is doubling down on the I don't remember excuse.

Glad they got it on tape, thats for sure, Its nice knowing what actually happened vs the whole it was off camera. harder to care when you never know for sure.

And omg Dorits kids are sooooo cute. I think she is a good mom. they make my ovaries hurt. LOL. Its fun to see little kids again. Part of the reason I love RHNJ is cause of the families and their kids. Its fun

A royal blue velvet couch for a 24 year old guy?  Nope.  Not feeling it.  A guy that age wants a comfy leather couch.  I do kind of find it 'interesting' that now LVP is buying her kids houses.  I don't know.  I just get a weird vibe. Almost like it's for 'show'.

OK. I kind of enjoyed the women at the food place.  And nope, if I was Kyle, I just wouldn't have done the fish.  I hate fin fish.  Kudos to her.

Not feeling the lunch with Tom and Erika.  Very fake.  With that said, I do think that Erika and Tom's relationship works for them.  However, seeing scenes in the past, truth be told, Tom's in charge.

Oh God, enough with Kim's sobriety.  I'd rather go back to pantygate. 

I love Kyle but having all your sisters and being at your all your sisters' births is a bit weird.  Maybe it's me.  

Dorit's children are very cute but there needs more encouragement for her son to talk.  He points and that's an opportunity to ask him to say the word.  He may not say it but it's important to encourage him.  I also think that moving the stuff animal is OK but do it once and give her the reward of catching it.  She's too young.  Yeah, many will probably disagree.

LR and Eden are both wrong.  LR was wrong about saying what she did about Kim but at the same time, Eden was going around repeating it instead of just getting fresh input from others.  Let's not forget Eden's reactions about Kyle and Kim that had nothing to do with what she heard from LR.

[ninjago]

It's too bad for Rinna she is on the one show in the franchise where most of the women won't pretty much look one of their castmates dead in the eye and say, "Yeah, I said it because I don't like you and if you don't like it you can stay home from now on."  

Try to imagine how it would go down if someone told Nene, Tamra, Kandi, Ramona, Bethenny, Vickie, etc. that  they need to tread lightly around someone who shows no remorse for being a total asshole, sober and drunk.

Soap fans tend to watch both.  Plus Housewives is basically a docusoaps using real people.  It just so happens Eileen and Lisa R aren't the best choices after 3 yrs.  I was excited they would be joining at first but now they need to leave the show for good.

Eileen, I believe is over it.  Her telephone call tonight about her having pink eye didn't convince me.  She has been MIA most of the season and she brings nothing to the show besides telling us someone has died in her family.  

Lisa R is trying to hard to be Brandi IMO.  She creates unnecessary drama but she refuses to own it.

Honey!!! Rinna wouldn't get away with her bs on OC and ATL that's for damn sure.  She's lucky to be casted on BH where she gets a slap on the wrist.

Lisa/Ken buying Pandora/husband their house was not filmed for the show. I think they are showing Max's condo as part of the show because he is on the show this season. As for the couch, if he doesn't like it he can always buy a new one of his choice.

[Marley]

What a boring episode. Rinna is such an annoying fake. Her joke about LVP's "gate" being closed for years was fucking stupid and not funny in anyway. Stop laughing so much at your pathetic jokes.

No Eileen? Wooo!

Go away Rinna's daughters. No one is interested in you. 

I am really liking Erika lately. Her and Tom's relationship works for them so meh I don't care lol.

Haha!  Well, you are right, it would go both ways!  I wonder if she would rather be able to just get into with the other women like they do on OC and ATL?  Her need to tow the hippy-dippy, "I wish you peace" bullshit line runs totally contrary to her real feelings.

I do know that they lost Giggy's dad last year and that may be what they are talking about, having to have him put down.

Soap opera people may watch the RH, I don't see RH audiences racing to the soaps because of Eileen and Rinna's exposure on RHOBH.  Same with Erika Jayne concert audiences, I don't see the RH rushing out to her concert venues.

[Jel]

Worst episode ever. 

[AndySmith]

Don't really care much for much Jagger, but Phoenix is quite possibly the most adorable thing we have ever seen on this show. Who knew PK's loins could produce something so cute?

Lisa R is going to get piled on hard at the reunion. If she had just done or said the following (as last week's Vulture review said)

"She should have said, “I don’t remember saying that, but, well, it’s kinda true and let’s talk about it,” or, “I don’t remember saying that, but if I did, I think differently now that I’ve talked to you and Kim and I should tell Eden that I was incorrect.”"

or something along those lines, I think she'd be ok. She'd get some grief and attitude about it both on the show and at the reunion, but otherwise, it probably wouldn't be a big thing. But doubling down by claiming she has no recollection and/or deflecting everything on Eden? She is not doing herself any favors, and all she is doing is digging herself a deeper hole.

[mbaywife123]

This epi lost me at about 10 mins. 

I did watch the preview for next week to see what is on tap and I also do not think Ken is faking his tears as he has really never been shown being sad soppy.

Kyle is looking great this season

Yeah, she looks much better. Especially digging the way she is styling her hair. Definitely prefer it being a bit shorter and wavy/curly versus the long straight look she used to have.

I had such fun visualizing these conversations. Ramona was the funniest. I see her flailing around and basically confusing Rinna to the point of backing off. Of that list, Kandi is the one I have some respect for, so I'd actually take her to heart (not that Rinna would, probably--she'd probably just blather on "oh you're right, I'm so horrible, I take it back," etc.)

The others--have you seen the video for Aphex Twin's "Come to Daddy"? There's a visual toward the end, of this alien/monster screaming at a little granny. In this analogy, Rinna is the granny and Tamra, Vickster, Bethenny, Nene are the alien. 

Thanks for the laughs over an otherwise mehpisode.

Such a contrast to last week's, which was one of my favorite RH eps ever...

[Teddybear]

I recognized Lisa Rinna's makeup artist Joey as Rachel Zoe's BFF/makeup artist.  Hadn't seen him for a while. 

Gigi's advice to Delilah was walk like you're going to get food.  Oh, so walk like you're hungry?  I found that part funny just based on the pure ridiculousness of that advice.  Maybe if Yolanda let Gigi have more than a lemon her walk would be totally different! 

[kokapetl]

The award ceremony was like a low budget version of NY Lyme Awards, but with an uglier winner, uglier model children, food by meals on wheels. 

[Blondie]

Rinna complaining about LVP not being there for the award was just stupid.  LVP showed up to help prepare meals, wasn't that enough?  And I didn't see Erika at the award banquet.  But I guess thats different.  What a loser.  She just keeps digging deeper and deeper.  I am thinking her attack on LVP last year was a made up deal.  I don't like her or trust her.

I think if Rinna said "harry Hamlin one more time I was going to lose my mind! What does she get royalties for each time she says it. Eden is an odd duck kind of Glen Close fatal attraction scary. That poor beautiful blue couch about to be defiled ugh

[ivygirl]

Wow, the bit on Eileen at the end of the Vulture recap was positively literary!

[zoeysmom]

WWHL with LVP was better than the episode.  Lisa looked good-she should use WWHL stylist more often.

She busted Rinna for her comments about LVP not going to her event because it wasn't about her.  Apparently, tonight Rinna was to host a fundraising event for her charity at LVP's PUMP Restaurant and she no showed due to illness.  Eileen filled in.

[yourmomiseasy]

I'm 8 minutes in.  I hate Lisa Rinna.  I don't know if I'll be able to make it much farther.
