Did they explain why Katie wasn't invited to Jeremy's party? Is there an issue between Katie and Sandoval or Ariana?

LVP really doesn't want Max on this show. I do believe they limit his screen time to help hide his addictions

What addictions?   I must have missed something. I've never heard of Max having any kind of drug or alcohol problems. I haven't always been a regular viewer of the show though so I may have missed it. I do remember the first season of BH Housewives that Lisa was all up in arms that Max's friend smoked weed. I remember her fretting about a little weed while she was pouring Pandora a huge glass of wine (hypocrite).  What is he addicted to? 

 The conversation here about constantly texting or calling your boyfriend/girlfriend made me laugh. When my husband and his friends go our, they put all of their phones in the middle of the table and the first one who's wife calls or texts has to pay for dinner. My husband has never had to pay once.  Two of the guys have jealous, clingy type wives and those two us alternate week to week.

Yeah. Maybe. I don’t put anything past producers to create situations. And yeah.. when/if katie goes nuts on Schwartz later this season.. I’ll remember that he ditched her for two parties and also that they were parties she never got an invite to.

I'm gonna laugh if Jax goes back into "I hate you more than life" mode with Katie and he blurts out Schwartzie asked that you not be invited to parties so that he could get a break from your sorry ass

Anybody else get a chuckle at how this show tries to portray Brittany as this wholesome, innocent Country Girl who just got crushed by the evil Jax Taylor?  Yeah, it sucks that Jax cheated on her, and clearly she is hurt about it, but the idea that she was some innocent girl is comical.  Let us examine the history of this girl:

1) She apparently met Jax in Las Vegas, and that's assuming she wasnt social media stalking him first.  Either way, you arent meeting Jax Taylor, at a place in Vegas, that isnt super trashy or full of people partying hardcore. That's where she also happened to be.

2) After meeting him, you know she looked him up and saw all kinds of dirt on him (assuming she already hadnt been stalking him).  Who he was, how awful a person he was, and how he was a big cheater.  But no worries, she was good with that, because...

3) She insta-moved to LA at the drop of hat to be with him, all to be on TV like the fame whore she is.  LOL.  Oh yeah, what an innocent girl.

4) Tattoo behind the ear and who knows where else.  Ill placed tattoos tell a lot about a girl, and they dont point to innocence or wholesomeness.

5) She let him buy her new boobs because HE wanted them bigger.  LOL.  Sounds like a real wholesome girl.

6) When we saw her in Kentucky, we met her friends, and they were all hard partying single mothers.  LOL.  All of them!!!  Even her sister had a skanky past.

7) We saw her ex-boyfriend.  LOL.  Hmmmm, Im sure THAT didnt go over well in Kentucky church.

8) She found eyelashes and knew Jax was cheating, and never said anything.

9) She had sex with Jax literally days after finding out he raw dogged skanky Faith without a condom. 

10) She stayed with him to current day.

So please, spare me the sweet, innocent, country girl charade Bravo is selling.  This girl was a hard partying fame whore, who probably stalked Jax on social media, then met him, then sunk in her hooks, then got herself to LA and on a TV show she probably watched religiously.  Brittany got exactly what she should have expected out of this, a little money, some TV time, and an STD from a cheating JAX.

Thank you for this!  I have been thinking something so similar for so long....here's a girl they portray as little country mouse being treated poorly by her evil boyfriend in the big city.  I don't see her that way AT ALL, and you've said it so well.  I didn't watch their show so idk about her ex-boyfriend and her friends and sister, but it doesn't surprise me.  This chick bolted her small town to move In with a guy she barely knew, who lives in LA and plays a jerk in a reality show.  What did she expect.  It makes me laugh when she keeps saying "after all I did for you". What did she do for him? She moved to LA for HERSELF and he was her only ticket.  She must have been the hot girl in her town and was always told to get out of there and get famous, and that's what she (sort of) did.  She is using Jax more than he is using her and while I think she probably has some feelings for him and is hurt or embarrassed, she is in this for herself and is trying to get ahead out there in Cali.  I'm not going to judge bc if it works for them, fine, but let's put the obvious truth out there. Nope, I don't feel bad for either one of them, this is the deal they made.  One of them will leave, maybe they'll have a made-for-tv free wedding first, but one will eventually leave when they find something better to get them to the next step and that will be that

Agree and I think Jax realizes this, too. He may be a dirtbag, lying, cheating whore but he ain't stupid. He's been around. A lot. He knows what she is and what she's after, and I think he's getting tired of it. 

[NeverLate]

I think Brit was a little mousy, but she needed to find her spine living with Jax, and as much as he irks me, dirty man, I'm betting she isn't easy to live with. He has mentioned numerous times how she leaves her clothes on the floor etc.

People do like her though, so she must have some endearing qualities. Lala is back next week to stir the pot! Good..lol

[KungFuBunny]

Brittany met Jax in Vegas. The VPR crew were there getting paid by the club for making an appearance. People were crowding around them, buying drinks and wanting autographs and selfies. Brittany moseyed up to Katie first. Even, with the slim chance she didn't know Jax...she knew enough to see the crowds around the crew to know they were famous in some way, and she knew enough that Jax was part of the crew and not "security" or a "hanger on".

He's probably made the same offer to various hookups when he found out she lived out of state - but never really expected her to up and move cross country to move into his apartment.

If they stay together - Jax will continue to cheat. I think Brittany tossed out her birth control pills and she'll be pregnant soon.

[RHJunkie]

Jax is just a piece of shit who reuses the same old excuses to try and make his gross behaviour seem a little less gross. It's rinse and repeat with him. Cheat, get caught, adamantly deny it, act dumbfounded that not everyone believes him, eventually admits it because he's lied himself into a corner, blame it on rough times in the relationship and trying to make it seem like he only did it because he cares so much about this person that he got scared and sabotaged the relationship. And no surprise, he's following his pattern to a tee. Jax cheats because he's selfish and can't be in a monogamous relationship but he allows relationships to pursue with women who are very clear that they expect loyalty from him as a partner. There are plenty of women who are okay with casual dating or having open relationships and it's not that hard to find either but I would bet money that that wouldn't work for Jax because he'd quickly realize that the relationship works the same way for the woman as it would for him. Being disloyal and then lying are two separate red flags in a relationship and Jax has exhibited that he's guilty of both. Luckily for him (and unfortunate for them), there are women in this world stupid enough to believe that his bad behaviour is somehow because of how much he loves them instead of the reality that it's to do with how much of a pig he is. As for Brittany, she does seem like a really nice person. I don't necessarily buy that she was totally naive to Jax's reputation and I wouldn't be surprised if she made the move with Jax so quickly because she recognized the opportunities that could come with being a part of his world, however, I think that Brittany was genuinely in the relationship. 

Schwartz cracks me up because he isn't bullshitting when he talks about crushing on LVP and feeling nervous around her. The way he lit up when LVP said she loved him was like a little boy being told that he has super powers, lol.

So Stass has never heard of "galvanized" or "juggernaut" before?  And she couldn't figure out their definitions from the way he used them?  Is she dumb, or pulling a helpless dumb girl routine to appeal to him?  Either way -- ugh.

I vote for the latter, and it's just sad to me.  I envision Patrick as someone who needs to feel superior in the relationship, Stassi has likely learned over the 3 years to coddle his precious ego and try to make him feel smart.  

Spoiler

Happy to know they broke up again.  

She can do so much better.

[Never Again]

And what about Faith? This girl slept with her friend's boyfriend, multiple times.  First of all, even if you somehow believed his story about breaking up with Brittany, you saw they were still together after you fked him, so what's your excuse the second time? And the third? And when you ran up to them at the party and said let me come to your after party? 

And second of all, where's your girl code?  Whether she and Brittany are friends or merely coworkers, you don't fk your friend's boyfriends, you don't fk your coworker's boyfriends.  Jax is a skanky ho, and Brittany is shady, but Faith is a snake too

Yeah.. I’m still unsure if Faith is the girl Jax cheated with. Jax cheated for sure but is faith really the one who cheated with him? Or is she just a guest player on this show who has tried over and over to be a starring player in this hot mess? First she  tried with Lisa’s son but Lisa dose not want him anywhere near this show so that failed. So now she’s the girl who slept with Jax while he was with Brittany.

Are couples on this show not allowed to break up?  C'mon, FI & Ari clearly ain't a couple anymore -- if they ever were.  Still think they're both gay.  And Brit & Jax seem stuck with each other.  Wonder how it is Brit hasn't gotten preggers by now -- by accident or on purpose.

Oh man, there's Lala in the preview in one of her usual hooker getups.  Is Lisa gonna hire her back?  Uh, why?  Well, at least she wasn't fired for being drunk on the job & mouthing off to bosses -- like James.  In what universe would anyone EVER hire James back after what he did?  Is Lisa a moron or is this more senseless scripted bullshit thrown at us?

I checked the preview for next week and Lala was taken back by Lisa! She's always had a soft spot for the girl for some reason! Lala supposedly has something that makes her the best at her job hosting @ PUMP I guess! ;-)

[OnceSane]

So no one has sex on this show except Jax, his latest gf and his sidepiece of the hour?  If FI and Arianna aren't having sex, a little BDSM in a public tent ain't gonna help.  Personally, I want to see a chucklefuck clusterfuck…like Scheana and FI legit falling in love.  The head explosions would require a whole new cast.  Jax is Jax--skeevy, jerky and riddled with STDs.  People fuck him at their own risk.  Y'all have been warned.  So no sympathy for Brittany or Faith.

Patrick is exactly the type of asshole I expected Stassi to cling to…and talk up as though he's Papoose from Love & Hip Hop (if you haven't watched, maybe the only decent guy on any of the L&HH franchises).  She may have a way with a turn of phrase, but she's just as big of an asshole as her "dreamy" bf.

[hoodooznoodooz]

How is it possible in 2017 that sexually active people are still hooking up without using condoms, and how could any person with half a brain cell hook up with Jax Taylor without using a condom? He has admitted to having sex with prostitutes, strippers-- are porn stars on that list?

Did anyone else notice, when Brittany got a drink from Tom for one of her tables when Jax was there and it was awkward, Tom told Brittany that he had no lemons, but there was a huge bowl of them sitting right behind him?

I just re-watched...Jax says to FI & James...Faith just said she had sex with me..

The nerve, haha! Barring some kind of unexpected, non-negotiable hurdle, I totally expect to hear from my BF of several years at least once a day (and, of course, that "once" can include, you know, just talking at home, as we live together). He's the same (ha, it's called being considerate and actually liking your partner). How is that even odd? No, I don't need it and, yes, I have my own life (more than I need, to be honest). 

Yeah, seems like a personal preference thing. I don't see how it defines a person. Some people are very social and some aren't. Whatever. I agree it would be odd if someone you lived with came home and nobody spoke the entire time.

Re: Amsterdam. I don't think it's that odd to not speak over vacation, depending on how long the vacation is- what was weird about it was that Patrick was so condescending and very, "What did we learn? It's best for us not to talk about what happens while we're apart." Uh, yeah... if my husband ever said that I'd get a lawyer with quickness. The "What did we learn?" would be enough. The "lets not discuss what I did on vacation" would be icing on the cake. That's not even a good code for "I'm going to be doing things that would hurt you, so let's just not talk about them, k?"

Gah, Patrick is awful. I take back every word I said about Ariana being condescending in the earlier seasons. Patrick could give freaking lessons on being a condescending idiot. Nothing he said was impressive, and it's sad that Stassi has to fake like she's beneath him.

Stassi's got stuff going on. She's on a TV show, has her podcast thing, and I think some other projects. I'm sure she has good money. Who is this homely weird guy? And he has a SPORTS podcast!? Not what I pictured. Not that having a podcast means anything to me, but that guy thinks about sports enough to have a damn podcast.

 

*Not dismissing Podcasts at all, I just have no idea how much actual work or knowledge goes into them. And please correct me if I'm wrong about the "sports podcast". It has to be something else......right?

Removed previous allegations.

[Stan39]

Either Jax has mellowed with age, or he doesn't really care about Brittney. I go back to the party when the allegations came up and he doesn't really deny them, even then. Just keeps saying stuff like, "I can't believe this is happening!" "C'mon, man, you know me!" I think he's glad it's out and over. I never really understood them as a couple and would have been shocked to see them end up together. 

 

It's hard to feel sorry for Brittney when she says, "I thought I was going to be the girl Jax Taylor changed for". Cringe-worthy. I hate when girls knowingly date @ssholes because they think it will improve their value as a woman if the guy magically decides she's different and worth being a good guy. Hey ladies, just date nice guys in the first place and you don't have to work so hard to change them. Jax sucks, but Brittney knew full well the man she was getting involved with and only feels bad now because she can't gloat that she's better than other women?

 

I'll echo people's thoughts on Patrick. I didn't think he was awful, but somehow I pictured some buttoned up, slick haired businessman. I assumed he didn't want to be on the show because he took his career seriously and didn't think it would be a good look. Or, that he was somewhat normal and didn't want the cameras intruding in his life.  It was weird seeing the girls go apesh!t over him when he arrived at Stassi's place. Really? This guy??

 

I'll be the first one here to admit I'm tired of Lisa's schtick. As reality stars go, I give her credit for doing a better job than most when it comes to putting out a good public image with her charity work and businesses. But, at the end of the day I think she's totally self-serving and only does charity to make herself seem more important. Rather than spend a ton of money on a boujee dog shelter, I'm sure she could spread that money around more effectively just donating to lots of shelters to improve their meager settings. And I've noticed she's only an animal rights activist as long as it doesn't conflict with her lifestyle. She'll fly to China to protest their culture's treatment of dogs, but I doubt she gives a damn about where the meat in her restaurant comes from. Or the leather for her shoes, bag, and seats for her EXTRA Rolls Royce. I'm sure I'll get flack for this, I know LVP is pretty much unassailable in the reality tv world, but I'm just getting tired of her. I think she's completely fake and more cold hearted than people realize. 

[ihartcoffee]

That was Patrick? I expected someone much more polished,  not a douche with a man bun.  

Seeing old shots of Jax, my how bad he's aged as of late.  He has no room to talk about Brittany letting herself go.  I bet he still thinks he's cut like that,  he's so full of himself.  He makes rude comments and act like she's brought nothing to the relationship.   She needs to dump him,  her family has to be mortified by now.  

Lisa is so rich,  damn that woman and her nice cars make me so jealous!

Heh, well...that has happened in the wake of a few dust-ups, haha!

Now, I don't mean check-ins on the hour or drawn-out protracted conversations about the state of our relationship or anything, especially if one of the two of us is off having a good time--and as the GF of a musician, I do not need to talk to him on his breaks (in fact, he's the caller in those situations; I am merely trying to use those nights to catch up on all the shows that he mocks me for watching*!). But you know, a call or text at some point to say goodnight, whatever, and if something funny/exciting/weird/bad happens that the other would want to know! So, yeah, I don't find it remotely strange that a GF would want to hear from her SO while he's away on a different continent.

* Of which he pretends this show is one! Haha, he's totally into it!

[hoodooznoodooz]

Stan39: I kind of agree with you.  I don't know if she pitched the idea of VPR to Bravo or merely agreed to it, but after the first season, she might have realized this cast is too ignorant or fame-hungry or immature to be on a reality show. I want to say that she's KIND of exploiting them? Yes, I realize that they are in their twenties and thirties, but, in this day and age, I don't think that they are wise enough to understand that this ridiculous behavior on a TV show has consequences. 

And yet, they amuse me, and I watch the show, so I guess I am exploiting them, too. 

[Granimal]

Unfortunately, not a big LaLa fan. Or Raquel fan for that matter. I enjoy the originals. Though I can't stand Scheana, and think she's gotten worse over time. Total agreement that Britney is not some innocent lamb that needs protecting, however she is the nicest person in the cast. I can see what Kristen meant by "making us all better people." For a second there, she made a more "likeable" cast.

The "I thought I could be the one to change him" was cringey.

Stassi was even more cringe-worthy.

Tom has mentioned dry spells with Ari before. Seems like an odd thing to bring up. I also thought the masturbating to her haircut was weird though. They're a couple that lives together... if he thought the haircut was super sexy- why not initiate sex?

Jax and Britney will continue to make each other miserable. I actually don't think Brit is in love with Jax. If she were in love I think she would've stayed angrier for longer. I think she's in love with his friends, the job, the show, etc.

Yeah, I still enjoy her on RHofBH for her witty banter, real estate porn and fun gatherings, but she's a bit different on this show, and not in a good way. She totally plays up the bitchy boss lady schtick and isn't nearly as mischievous or lighthearted.

She comes off as some exploitative plantation owner who only pretends to care about her dimwitted slaves, and not in any remotely deep or caring fashion---they're just mere pawns for her and her Vanderpump empire. When she literally strutted like a peacock into Scheana's goofy masquerade party wearing the biggest and goofiest feathered mask in the place, I had to roll my eyes and shake my head. You know she was literally counting down the minutes until she could race out of that shithole filled with all her grossest, greasiest laborers.

I hate all the yelling in front of the dogs!! They are so sensitive and really do get traumatized by it.  

So Brittany has seen eyelashes in the apartment and didn't think he was cheating then?

I think he loves her, but I definitely don't think he's IN love with her anymore. The way he talks to her/subtly puts her down and acts mostly ambivalent about their relationship shows me that he's simply bored and likely just keeping her around because it's easier than having to deal with a breakup. And yes, he definitely acted far more into Stassi than he ever has with Brittany. She's just hanging in there with him for obvious reasons.

Agree 100%. I've always felt like Stassi was the only one Jax ever truly loved (or as much as Jax CAN love, anyway). Stassi is the one that got away for Jax. 

It always seems to me like he views Brittany as more as an anchor than an asset, like he feels she's not worth all he's had to give up b/c of her. He constantly complains about paying her bills, says stuff like, "I wanna feel like i'm getting something out of this relationship, too," etc. 

I think sometimes that the only reason he keeps her around is because he knows people would give him so much shit if he did. Maybe he even worries she might choose to stay in LA, anyway and turn his whole group of friends (and viewers) against him. I think he finds it easier to just keep her around and continue to cheat on the side. 

I'm one to believe that leopard doesn't change it's spots, I don't believe Jax will ever change, I don't believe he is capable of being monogamous. I can't believe Brittany doesn't see that. Did she honestly think she'd changed him?? With the way he treats her? Oh no, I knew there was no way. 

I wonder if she sorta DID know this, deep down, but kind of looked the other way until it was brought up on camera. B/c she mentioned that she found fake eyelashes in the house, that weren't hers. So whose did she think they were? 

I think, deep down, she probably knew, but it's the embarrassment factor that made her act this time, or at least try to. She kept saying how now she has to explain this to her family and friends back home, etc. 

Honestly, if I were with someone like that, I'd be more mad about the embarrassment part, too.

I can’t understand what I ever saw attractive in Tom Schwartz. Watching a 35 year old man get wasted, almost “whip it out” and pee on someone’s cake as a joke and cry about how they are just realizing what we all knew long ago  - that he has zero drive - is the opposite of attractive in every way. I used to wonder why he was with Katie but now I also wonder why the hell she is with him. His looks aren’t there for me anymore, either. The defense of Jax is just gross. Over him.

The way Patrick came across in his unfortunate appearances is exactly how he came across in the episode of Stassi’s podcast he did. He low key and not so low key insulted and was condescending towards her the whole time. He took over the episode and it was uncomfortable to listen to.  I guess based on who we have seen her date (Jax, Frank) I can understand why she would think he is some kind of catch but he’s a douche in reality.  And, sorry, but he’s nothing special to look at in the least.

I thought the same thing--he is a 30 year old frat boy with Peter Pan syndrome.  Katie is in for a LONNNNGGGG life if she sticks with him.  I had a Peter Pan once--it is exhausting

[TattleTeeny]

I have a partial one now. He's great and everything, and in no way a Tom, but every so often, I feel like the mean old fun-killer for reminding him of, like, you know, real-world boring grownup things. And it's not even like I am some bastion of seriousness myself; I just like shit to be taken care of before any nonsense!

I don't think Stassi is over Jax. I do not mean that she is still in love with him, but that when she was with him she was very much in love with him. After Jax, she chose men that were creeps in some way - she has a type. I think she unconsciously chooses these men in the hopes of changing them since she couldn't "fix" Jax.

I have a feeling Schwartzie knew about Faith and all of the other cheating Jax has had. He has to back up and side with Jax no matter what because Jax has dirt on Scwartz. I think Schwartz has cheated on Katie post wedding.

It's hard to feel sorry for Brittney when she says, "I thought I was going to be the girl Jax Taylor changed for". Cringe-worthy. I hate when girls knowingly date @ssholes because they think it will improve their value as a woman if the guy magically decides she's different and worth being a good guy.

My immediate thought when I heard that awful "confession".

I think her ego is more invested in this faux relationship than her heart.

I am the superwoman that changed Jax Taylor.  Blech.

I thought the same thing--he is a 30 year old frat boy with Peter Pan syndrome.  Katie is in for a LONNNNGGGG life if she sticks with him.  I had a Peter Pan once--it is exhausting

people with Katie's personality (very with it, responsible, traditional, maternal, over-emotional but otherwise pretty straight-laced) tend to like guys like that, tho. i've seen a lot of couples like that, when i think about it. i guess opposites attract. 

i hear what you're saying, tho, he's definitely not for me!!!!

I believe it, that Scheana and Ariana knew beforehand. I don't necessarily blame them for not saying anything, b/c that's kind of a sticky situation, but once the cat's out of the bag, they shouldn't pretend they're hearing it for the first time, that's lame. own that you knew and just didn't feel comfortable getting involved.

Stan39: I kind of agree with you.  I don't know if she pitched the idea of VPR to Bravo or merely agreed to it, but after the first season, she might have realized this cast is too ignorant or fame-hungry or immature to be on a reality show. I want to say that she's KIND of exploiting them? Yes, I realize that they are in their twenties and thirties, but, in this day and age, I don't think that they are wise enough to understand that this ridiculous behavior on a TV show has consequences. 

And yet, they amuse me, and I watch the show, so I guess I am exploiting them, too.

Yeah, I still enjoy her on RHofBH for her witty banter, real estate porn and fun gatherings, but she's a bit different on this show, and not in a good way. She totally plays up the bitchy boss lady schtick and isn't nearly as mischievous or lighthearted.

She comes off as some exploitative plantation owner who only pretends to care about her dimwitted slaves, and not in any remotely deep or caring fashion---they're just mere pawns for her and her Vanderpump empire. When she literally strutted like a peacock into Scheana's goofy masquerade party wearing the biggest and goofiest feathered mask in the place, I had to roll my eyes and shake my head. You know she was literally counting down the minutes until she could race out of that shithole filled with all her grossest, greasiest laborers. 

 

If you've seen the Bravo special, Bravo wanted a spin-off set at Villa Blanca. LVP told them that this gang of idiots is where it's at. And they got paid nothing for the first two seasons. I think it was $6,000 or $9,000 in season 1. Something like $30,000 for season 2. Those brief moments when LVP's veneer drops that I find her to be really awful. Almost everyone says that the food at her restaurants is mediocre to terrible.  People go to SUR and Pump to gawk at these idiots and overpay for shitty cocktails.

edited out of Brittany's phone convo w/Mama:

 

"BABY GIRL you gotta get back in there if you wanna keep being a tee-vee star!  Do you always swallow?  What about butt sex?"

BWAH! After that awful Kentucky show, this is too accurate. Her mom's voice had "Oh no, Jax Taylor might not be my son-in-law" worry all over it. I would not be surprised if Frosty McLipstick was the one persuading her to get back with Jax.

Im dating myself here, (best date ever), but Patrick looks just like Mickey Dolenz...(one of the uglier Monkees) when he got all cool and pseudo rock and rolley...manbun and all...

[TattleTeeny]

Speaking of dating oneself: Is it weird to have no negative opinions on a man-bun*? I just don't care...though maybe that's because I went to art school way back in the early '90s; if you had long hair, it pretty much got knotted up into a bun at some point or another, regardless of gender, unless you didn't mind extricating paint, clay, plaster, whatever in the middle of the night.

* I admit that I do wonder about a super-tiny man-bun made of so little hair that it probably would not get in your way anyway. Like did you get that haircut just so you could have a bun? I mean, OK, if it means that much to you but it actually seems like higher maintenance than not. (I also wonder about people, mainly ladies, who put a little makeup-brush-sized ponytails at the base of the neck. There used to be some blond lady on a crime procedural show that had the dumbest ponytail that got on my nerves.)

Anyway, carry on...

I'll be the first one here to admit I'm tired of Lisa's schtick. As reality stars go, I give her credit for doing a better job than most when it comes to putting out a good public image with her charity work and businesses. But, at the end of the day I think she's totally self-serving and only does charity to make herself seem more important. Rather than spend a ton of money on a boujee dog shelter, I'm sure she could spread that money around more effectively just donating to lots of shelters to improve their meager settings. And I've noticed she's only an animal rights activist as long as it doesn't conflict with her lifestyle. She'll fly to China to protest their culture's treatment of dogs, but I doubt she gives a damn about where the meat in her restaurant comes from. Or the leather for her shoes, bag, and seats for her EXTRA Rolls Royce. I'm sure I'll get flack for this, I know LVP is pretty much unassailable in the reality tv world, but I'm just getting tired of her. I think she's completely fake and more cold hearted than people realize. 

This. ^^^  Agree with you.  I have never ever bought Lisa's "I'm so classy and wealthy and care about animals and speak French and care about the LGBT community" bs.  She couldn't care less about any of that.  Having lived in France doesn't automatically make you classy or cultured.  I've heard Lisa speak French and it's really terrible and her accent is atrocious.  Lisa and Ken ran gay clubs starting in the UK because back then, that's where the money was.  That's what made them rich.  I don't believe that she cares about LGBT rights at all.  It makes her seem like a compassionate, caring person and THAT's why she's talking about it.  Helping someone involves giving a part of yourself and getting your hands dirty.  Lisa would NEVER do that.  She thinks she's too good for that.

I also think that Lisa is the biggest shit-stirrer on the show.  She can't be trusted and is so smug.  She knows how to wind them all up and she even encourages the staff to behave badly.  Remember Carmen from season 3?  She pushed her to go out with Jax.  Why the FK would you do that to a young girl, knowing what a sociopath Jax is??  How would she feel if someone did that to Pandora???  I don't think she did enough for Max when he was growing up and always favoured Pandora.

She is definitely exploiting them. Yes, she's extremely manipulative and calculating.  She's definitely cold-hearted.  Lisa's the worst out of all of them.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the masturbation and dry spell thing was weird! Tom and Ariana are weird, to me. IDK what it is. Why is Ariana not fucking him anymore? 

Because she realizes, like so many of us, that he should have been the one to marry Schwartz.

I don't think Stassi is over Jax. I do not mean that she is still in love with him, but that when she was with him she was very much in love with him. After Jax, she chose men that were creeps in some way - she has a type. I think she unconsciously chooses these men in the hopes of changing them since she couldn't "fix" Jax.

I have a feeling Schwartzie knew about Faith and all of the other cheating Jax has had. He has to back up and side with Jax no matter what because Jax has dirt on Scwartz. I think Schwartz has cheated on Katie post wedding.

I thought he was going to confess to that when he was crying!  But I WAS laughing when he was saying to Brittany, "Of course I would lie to you if Jax cheated on you, but I don't know anything, do I'm not lying".

Riiiiiight......

2 episodes in and I've gone from being mainly charmed by Schwartz, to giving him side eye.

Where's Peter?  And yes.  I recognize he's less douchey due to less screen time!

[WhosThatGirl]

Yeah Schwartz is not looking good at all this season. 

Also yes an episode ago Ariana made gross comments about how hot Tom thought her new haircut is and made gross sex comments about it and an episode later tom is making comments about them not having sex anymore? Look as someone who worked in video editing and had to put together cohesive scenes to set up a story.. someone on the video editing of this show clearly has stopped giving a damn. Just like the production assistant who allowed Faith to go off book and start chatting up Brittany at Schenas birthday and then reminding themselves “oh no, Faith needs to get herself to a corner and start crying about how Jax cheated on Brittany with her! And a credits cast member needs to be in range! Why wasn’t I paying attention?” 

[ticklemepink]

Again, Schwartz POURED A DRINK OVER HIS GIRLFRIEND's (now wife's) HEAD on national TV. AND cheated on her. AND refused to have her back when she fought with Jax. AND goes on trips/parties that she is not invited to.

I am certain that he would have a mental breakdown if you asked him to choose who to save from a burning building: Katie or Jax or Sandoval. He would be conflicted!!!

I feel so much pity for Katie for thinking that this is man who would be the best life partner for her, and the future father of her children. It's completely bone-chilling.

I don't think Schwartz would be conflicted at all on who to "save". He would save Sandoval, then Jax. If Katie managed to save herself, he would at the last minute grab her hand.  When she wakes up in the hospital crying that he didn't save her he would say oh Bubba, I did save you first - you were delirious from smoke inhalation and Jax and Tom would back his play.

Or he would accuse of having drank too much before the fire and start shouting “Tequila Katie!” At her! Schwartz is awful. I realized that last season during the bachelor/ette parties.

Also since before the new season started they did reruns of all the shows from last season, I always liked that on the reunion katie brought to his Jax and Tom were all having Schwartz’s back and never said one thing to have Katie’s and Katie Simon said “it hurt because I thought these people were my friends too” which.. point. FI made all their problems Katie’s fault during the New Orleans trip. According to him Schwartz was a battered wife! And in pain! Like.. it bothers me so much that the guys make katie to be this awful person. Which she actually isn’t. 

[Rubyslippahz]

Second all the emotions about Patrick.    I wish he would have stayed a mysterious off camera cipher. 

Where is Kristen's BF (Carter??)  

i wanted Schwartz to finish his thought about who he has Stockholm syndrome about.   Likely Jax - but I was hoping he would say Katie.  

So now James has his own crew rolling with Logan and Raquel.   I suppose Raquel wants to be the next cast member/Brittany 2.0 but she has no discernible personality and beauty queen of what and where?

Officially giving up on Brittany.   She needs to be in serious therapy.   Not sorry for her at all anymore.

Jax didn't seem to me to be all that upset over being caught. Sure is different from the way he cried when Stassi left him. I never thought he really loved Brittany as much as she loved him. 

Really - he’s counting on this being a permanent ticket out of Kentucky.

Looks like she’s working on a codependency with a narcissist, who will continue to suck the life out of her if she doesn’t get out soon. Wish her mom wasn’t so excited about having Jax in the family - Brittany needs to listen to her dad more. Run girl, run for your life!

This cast is savvy enough at this point that they  understand filming storylines. It certainly wasn’t coincidental that the big secret came out on camera the first day of filming the season. They might consider Brittany a friend, but not a good enough friend to jeopardize the big on-camera accusation. In fact, i’m more surprised that Katie didn’t insist on going to the party just to see the drama go down. Somehow Sheana didn’t get injured. It’s textbook VDPR for a fight to go down at Sheana’s birthday with her accidentally being injured in the ensuing melee. But, we veered off-script somehow with the cheater admitting episode 2 that the accusation was true rather than gaslighting the partner that s/he is crazy for believing it all season long, just to up and admit that it’s true in the season finale party. So is this because the producers realized the fallout of the truth might be more interesting than the cover-up this time, or is there ANOTHER cheating/break-up storyline on the horizon?

Why do these nimrods only seem to fk around with each other? I just surf by and they play musical chairs with who they're dating in the group! It makes no sense being out in California where there are plenty of eligible other people out there to have relationships with! The scene in Mexico where Schwartz pours his drink over Tequila Katie will be repeated again and again since both have a drinking problem! No matter how good a person, if they have to get plastered so badly they forget what they're doing, we have to separate! Why is JAX such a b!tch, actually gossiping and passing judgement on others when he's the lowest form of life in all of BH's? He ratted out Tom to Stassi so he can have something to say it seemed to me! These are the most empty POS on TV! Why is this show so popular? ;-(
