That was lame, have the dog make the quails fly into the air and shoot them from 10 feet away.

Then let the staff collect, clean and cook them up.

They were probably caged and released so that these "sportsmen" could talk up how they shot their meal.

That's why Whitney dressed like little Lord Fauntleroy.

Patricia's sage advice to Landon about hooking an older man with money. Boy toys aren't going to cut it.  She is really something else. From another time and century. But hey, if your goal in life is to live in luxury without much effort, then Patricia is 100% correct!

She would be like one of those elder ladies instructing American girls going to England to use their money to land gentry.  I think for Landon, Patricia is right.

It's so true though---Landon's now an immature divorcée in her mid 30's. She's no raving beauty, just well-traveled with a respectable family, and that's it. She's never going to rate any of these dapper young rich ballers she thinks she deserves. She *needs* to start looking to hook up with older rich men and get herself happily settled; that's what Patricia did and look how well she did for herself!

Better yet, instead of desperately pawning Landon off on Thomas, Patricia needs to start pushing her towards Whitney. Whitney and Landon would be a much better match than Thomas or Austen---they both mostly live in LA and are well-traveled, self-impressed weirdoes who annoy most folks, after all. Landon could even be like Whitney's beard. This could work; of course, this whole storyline is strictly a showmance, so why bother with the obvious.

Craig needs some serious couples counseling if he doesn't realize that name-calling and fighting dirty is unacceptable in a healthy relationship. If he genuinely is worried that things aren't working between him and Naomi then it's for the best that they consider some sort of intervention. Never mind what a whiny, pouty baby he acts like with her when they're angry at each other: words hurt and are never forgotten. When my husband and I first got together he made the mistake of letting some put-down's and names fly in anger; I left him for a few days and put my foot down on that just to let him know that I would not allow such behavior if we were going to stay together longterm---10 years later and he's never let that happen again. Naomi needs to leave Craig for a while just to give him a few days to consider the harsh reality of life without her: kick his ass out or stay away for a while to let him sweat and that'll teach him!

There is definitely a right and a wrong way to fight, especially when you're fighting with your other half. I learned that through some hard-purchased experience from the girlfriend I dated before meeting my wife. And from the non-relationship I have with my younger brother, I learned that once you say something, then it's out there forever and you'll spend many years making up for just one mean thing you've said. Another thing I learned: What we say to each other becomes what we think of each other. And that makes it that much more important to speak kindly and compassionately to your partner, especially during difficult times. Craig is setting himself up for either the total destruction of his relationship with Naomie or having to spend literal decades showing her that he was wrong and is sorry for what he's said to her.

If that's true, it was smart.  I certainly wouldn't want to pay for something I'd only wear once.  I would've been out fishing with Cameran.

I don't think Landon is physically unattractive at all, but her personality is dreadful. She is the one person I've seen on these shows that the term "snowflake" is an adequate description.  As far as physical looks she has nothing on Cameron.

i don't think Landon has any interest in someone in Austen's income bracket; however I do think she could smell screen time by trying to create a little love triangle/quadrangle with the new couple.  

I am not bothered by the fact that most of these guys/gals are independently wealthy.  Jealous yes, but I don't hold it against them.

The most funny to me was when Patricia is talking with Landon and she tells her that something puts a woman into desperation.  LANDON gets this ODD look on her face, as if she KNOWS what that is like!  lol  Too funny. I have to rewatch that scene.  Does anyone remember the exact line from Patricia?  I think it's the last line during their chat.

There does seem to be quite a bit of fakery going on.  I don't buy that Chelsea is all into trucks, hunting, tough guy turns me on, etc.   That is a stereotype that country music songs have perpetuated over the years, but, it's not true, of southern women in general, imo.  (I am born and raised in NC, so I think I know a bit about them.)  Here's a song that I find pretty funny.  IT debunks this preconceived notions about southern women and how they get turned on or NOT.

I also didn't find Chelsea's cavalier attitude with Austin very endearing.  Was that genuine?  I don't buy it.  I think they are trying to compare Chelsea to a Shep type.  Sort of like, she and Shep are more alike than she and Austen.  Rather silly.  

Did Chelsea mean that she is WARY or WEARY?  I know that was discussed upthread.  I wonder if she meant that she was weary of relationships.  Or was it WARY of them? I think she may have gotten them mixed up.

She said "if you Settle, then you will lead a Life of Quiet Desparation"

I love the dichotomy between Elizabeth and Kathryn in that scene. Elizabeth looks all fresh-faced and healthy, and Kathryn looks like a lost Kardashian sister.

During the hunting scenes, I have to admit, when Austen was like, "Quail who?" and then became a deadeye shot, it was kinda hot.

The weird discussions about Landon's looks sort of bug me. I mean, I find her screechy and intensely annoying, don't get me wrong; but it seems kind of overly mean to start talking about the quality of her skin or etc. She might not be Miss America, but she's more attractive than at least a good two-thirds of the general population.

That said, her personality is execrable and I hope she finds a sugar daddy and stumbles right the hell off my television. Also, apparently her given name is Ansley, which I feel is a good 80% of her problem right there.

Craig. What are you doing.

When Landon first started on the show I found her pleasantly vapid; in season 3 harmlessly vapid; this season she is now atrociously vapid. 

Was making chokers some sort of recreational therapy when Kathryn was in rehab? 'Cause girl has got a shitload of them. 

 

Katherin's choker looked like one  of those stretchy ones a teenager would buy at Walmart. She probably bought them at the 5 for 1 sale going on at the site where she buys her fake designer bags.

Nice to see JD and his wife are teaching their kids manners and how to address adults. We were raised with "Yes Ma'am" and "No Sir"  and to use Mr, Mrs or Miss So and So and also learned which ones we could address as Miss. First Name. 

I thought the pink pig BBQ silly and only bought to "show" Patricia's "eccentricity".Patricia's Staffordshire dog kaftan was hideous and freaked me out. I find her incredibly fake.

Dang those Hoodoo dolls are expensive. $275-$350!

When talking with Patricia did Landon spit out "hunting exposition"  not use expedition? I would not want to hear her voice on a regular basis. Nails on a chalkboard is more pleasing.

Whitney looked ridiculous. I think that was his plan or his mother's.

 Everybody should wear blaze orange if Craig has a gun. Won't knock him for wearing it. If you noticed all the staff were smartly wearing it around unknown shooters.

Chelsey's camera ready morning after in bed makeup is no more staged than Patricia's props and affectations.

I'm enjoying this season's minimalist approach to Kathryn.  I don't even like to hate-watch her. I guess she has a Bravo stylist sometimes, because when she apparently does her own hair and makeup, she looks weird.

I like Chelsea and Austen, but not necessarily together.

The women in my southern family are a lot like Chelsea. They love "masculine" country guys - trucks, hunting, cowboy boots, t-shirts and jeans, the entire shebang. None of them live in cities, however. And the men don't buy new clothes to go hunting, other than camo wear.

Agree that this show is becoming too scripted. I suppose it's an effort to course-correct after the last couple seasons' horrors.

Saint and Kensie look like their mother - the big blue eyes that tip up at the corner.

I guess I'm overly mean then.  Commenting on reality star appearances happen nearly daily on this site.  And she's being portrayed as some trophy for the jet set of Charleston.  I'm simply saying she's isn't all that and won't age well because her face at her tender age already looks sun damaged.  It looks devoid of moisture.  Windblown.

By the way, Shep's dental situation is routinely talked about here as well as his bloated alcoholic look. Too mean? Or is that somehow different?

Of course there's plenty of liquor and what do you know, they arrange to have Austen and Chelsea by themselves in their own cabin.  Yes the morning after scene was staged.  She was made up and he was all shaven.  With all the cameras and lights, they were having a frank discussion about what their supposed hookup means?

It looked like a canned hunt. Just this side of snapping a wing and throwing it from a ladder or behind a bush.

I wonder how many birds they pulled from the coop to supplement the meal?

I don't know about trucks or tough guys, but she really is into hunting. If you look into her IG, she has a number of hunting pictures and videos there, unrelated to filming of the show. So it just makes sense that she would want a guy who likes to go hunting as well.

I agree the morning-after scene was totally staged. Austen at least looks like he slept in, with his dishelved hair.  And it's not only her lipstick, but the eye makeup was heavy as heck.

Landon/Austen? Meh. Totally scripted.  Because if Chelsea/Austen is now going to live happily ever after with still half a season left to go, then that would be boring. Besides, the teasers still reference the Thomas/Kat/Landon triangle heavily towards the finale, so I highly doubt the Austen thing will even be important.

I'm surprised that no one has commented yet that maybe the reason why Chelsea told Austen that she's not looking for a serious relationship is she was let down by Austen's bedroom skills. LOL!

If Chelsea is really an avid hunting fan, God bless her.  I have no issues with hunting for food.  She just seemed overly enthused to me.  I'm not sure why, but, she just didn't appeal to me last night.  

I would imagine that it would be quite embarrassing to have to decline invitations, due to having a felony conviction.  He can't vote either?  I bet Thomas was embarrassed.  .........Update.  Felons can vote, after off their parole.

As you may have been able to tell by my Landon's so terrible her skin isn't great posting :-), I'm not her biggest fan.  But the smartest thing she's ever said is that Thomas comes with Kathryn and that is a lot of baggage.   She's absolutely on point with that.

And T-Rav.  Is he really such a great catch?  I mean, he's not a bad looking dude and he evidently has money.  He does have a certain charm.  However, his flirting with women who could really be his daugher's age is gross.  And his procreating with a woman who is ice cold 2x says a lot about his maturity.  Money aint everything.

Either Austen is terrible in the sack, or this is most def a set up.   I don't buy the post coital non-relationship discussion from Chelsea either.  I don't think Austen's bad looking and he seems like an okay guy, but I don't buy them as a couple period.  

I *could* see her and TRav together.

That's how we do it in my family and most of us live in cities.   Some are much closer to natural areas.

You damn sure wouldn't wear new boots to a hunt. You gotta break those babies in, usually when you're working on the farm and ranch, hiking or out scouting trails. Lots of times the boots you might wear are what you wear when you are working the farm or ranch. All depends on the terrain. 

Besides they were driven in and I bet they didn't have to "hike" more than a quarter mile if that.

I honestly don't know how any man would find her attractive.  She's not that cute.  I mean, she really isn't.  The voice is grating.  Her skin is terrible and she already has the look of someone who has been in the sun too much.  She won't age well.

And her entire existence is based on where she has traveled on apparently her daddy's money.  "In Aspen, there's a saying..."  Or in response to TRav's "I like that jacket" comment, "I got it in LA!"  It's great she so well traveled but you would think she'd be able to impart some interesting insights on what she's absorbed or it would mature her in some way.  The only thing she feels compelled to do is basically name drop her locations and talk about something superficial.

"There is no there there" as they say. Landon can be taken entirely at face value, which is truly sad. And there are so many people in this world, some of whom aren't particularly well-traveled, who can have so much to offer in terms of conversation and entertainment. I'd be curious to find out what she studied in school, college, etc.
