S02.E12: Reunion

[biakbiak]

Reunion is tonight at 10, not nect week! It's in the clubhouse so it might show up as a WWHL.

[Fiero425]

Poor Lauren is so delusional! Carl only wants her for a "drive by" and little else! It's amazing how the girls take up for Kyle against Amanda! I guess they have no problem with the drinking, but according to them she's playing "the victim!" ;-)

I hate the Wirkus twins and Lindsey looks terrible. 

[sadiebyuca]

Oh my gosh. I just stress ate through that whole debacle.  That was SO contentious.  

Lindsey, Ashley and Lauren were HORRID.  They sat there with self-righteous looks on their faces sneering at everyone else or screaming. 

Why was Amit there?  I just don't get the point.  Did they pay him, because he didn't do much for the show?  LOL

[RedDelicious]

Did Amit speak and I missed it? I like Amit.

The machine gun twins and Tits McGee (not Stephen) really ganged up on Amanda. Not cool. PSA: it's okay not to have a strong personality. Many people prefer it.

Stephen breaks my heart. I see a broken hearted boy who just wants to be accepted and loved.

Lindsey, Ashley and Lauren ARE horrid. I can't stand them. Jerks. They can rat-a-tat all they want - all I hear is static. 

[AttackTurtle]

That was obnoxious.  Do the twins and Lyndsay know that they’re completely replaceable?  No one watches this show for them. 

The attitude towards Amanda was gross. Amanda...you’re young, cute, you’re boyfriend doesn’t want to toss the word “marriage” around, and you’re boobs are natural.   Ignore these dumb bitches and hang out with your own friends.  Kyle’s suck.

Lindsey looked sooooooo bad!  The white hair is not a good look for her.  The hairstyle was not a good look for her.  The dress looked horrible on  her.  

[RedDelicious]

Lindsey's new boobs are uneven anyway.

I wish they would replace half of the cast and fill them up with Amanda's friends.  It would be cool to see her when she's in the "power position."  It would be interesting to see if her friends like Kyle and how they treat him.  I'm done with the twins and Lindsey. 

Or a house with Amit and his friends.  

This grouping is DONE.

[Pickles]

Amit and Danielle really didn't add anything during the season or at the reunion. The Wirkus girls looked so orange. The eye makeup was awful. I really thought this reunion was very uninteresting. I just tune out when all of the ganging up starts.

Andy was asking if they would ever share a house again. Surely, they must know if the show is coming back and who will be sharing. It is already April.

These people were horrid and I can't imagine wanting to be in a grouping with them! They're like high school mean girls deciding who should be in their clique and Amanda didn't make the grade! She was blackballed and all their animus towards her showed making them look quite shrewish! ;-(

[Thumper]

I couldn't figure out why Lindsey was siding with the Wirkus twins.

If the Wirkus twins would stop talking over everyone else, maybe the others could have a chance to speak. 

[Cosmic Shel]

I wholeheartedly agree with you all.  The Wirkus twins are nightmares when together, then throw Steven in the mix, and poor Carl, Kyle, and Amanda have little to no chance at completing a thought, or getting a fair shake.  I really hate that Ashley was brought back for no other reason than to cause drama with Carl.  Lauren is almost palatable without her in the mix.  

Who were the 2 people on the right of Amanda?????  Complete non-entities that simply needed a stipend while they were both out of work.  They may be nice people, but they added nothing to the show, yet took up 2 spots in the house.  I really hope they do not come back next season.  I also wish Steven would not return, as he's really a buzzkill to the entire show, spending most episodes pouting, crying, or talking bad about his housemates, especially poor Carl.  He sets the friendship bar impossibly high for his friends, while speaking so poorly them.  :(

I'd like to see Carl, Kyle, Amanda, Lauren, and Lindsey back, though with that new hair and boobs, I'm not so sure now.  ;)  They could then bring in 3 new cast mates, all hopefully with fairly happy attitudes, though I realize the shows needs drama to be viable.  And please, no Ashley visits, ughh!!

She went for the full-on Marilyn Monroe makeover look right down to the dress. All she was missing was a fake mole penciled in. She looked atrocious. 

Stephen looked better, though. He finally got a flattering haircut! Although I think he got some Botox, too, which made him look a bit like a wax figure.

It’s possible the show is coming back but that the cast contracts hadn’t been issued/signed until after seeing their performance at the reunion and fan reactions. So since I didn’t even realize Amit was there—and forgot he was even ON the show—he is most definitely out. The guy didn’t even try!!! On the other hand, Danielle at least tried by aligning herself with Lindsey and Laren to jump on the we’re BFFs and Amanda is a crybaby who wouldn’t sit at our lunchtable and now we put mean notes in her locker...or, I guess nowadays mean Tweet her. Those three harpies seemed to be WAY over-the-top. I also didn’t understand how Lauren and Lindsey thought ANYONE could possibly take their side with all of the drama THEIR relationships caused. It’s like they were trying to say A&K’s fighting brought them into it when meanwhile they also said A&K were off on their own—and most of their fights did occur in their room. So, I think they’re really mad that they didn’t get to participate in the fights like L&C and L&E’s fights. I mean, jeez, their knock-down, drag out fights were insanely over the top in front of EVERYONE—with boobs and watermelons flying (sometimes hard to tell which was which) and bystander housemates getting yelled at. And all of the cast mates were totally all up in their business taking sides, etc, then getting yelled at (Danielle) for possibly having an opinion or ulterior motive (she didn’t). And, you know, Lauren or Lindsey said something like you’d fight and wake up the next morning like it was roses—so what were we supposed to do?!? And I think that was the real issue that L&L were so angry about: You stopped fighting so we didn’t get to film any big reaction/aftermath/fallout scenes...like they’re “supposed to do” perhaps?

Next season I think they need a 2-Family house or condo situation with Lauren, Lindsey, Stephen, and MAYBE Danielle on one side, and Carl, Kyle, and Amanda on the other***. It will be like Melrose Place and drama will occur at the complex pool. Or just start over with new people.

**Eta: Maybe Everett could move into the Carl/Kyle condo.

[RedDelicious]

FFS the frog princesses and Lindsey are 28-30 years old. Amanda is 25. She has a career job. She carries herself well for someone so young. Especially when compared to the VPR kids. I actually didn't realize until now that there is a 10-year age difference between Kyle and Amanda ?

[ghoulina]

Lindsey looked awful. Her new tits look just as bad as the old ones, only bigger. A higher neckline wouldn't kill her. Her hair was also way too harsh, and every time I see her I think she had something new done to her face. No surprise that Ms. "Empowered Woman" is back with that douchebag, Everett. 

 

Carl is skeevy and gross, but I think it's also pretty obvious what he's about. If you're looking, you'd see the red flags. If you want to be delusional, that's on you. But I do think he's a good friend and I hate the way the other side of the room just went after Amanda. 

 

I just can't with Steven. I get where his hurt comes from, but I don't see him making an effort with his family at all. They seemed to be reaching out a lot and he even said in the final episode that he hadn't returned his mother's call....he just kept putting it off. Healthy relationships are a give and take. Hurt feelings aside, he needs to meet them in the middle and quit acting like this petulant baby who is so traumatized by them that he can't even ring them up. 

Did they even ask if he was still with Travis? I missed it if they did. (I was admittedly falling asleep and rewinding a lot.)

You can't hear a damn thing anyway. Andy needs to get better about moderating these things. It's not fun when everyone is shouting. 

[Pickles]

No update on Stephen and Travis. No update on Carl and that girl he was seeing. I imagine everyone is still single. I think they need a whole new cast, if the show even comes back. Lindsay and the Wirkus girls seem to feel like the show is all theirs. At least, that is my impression. 

[walnutqueen]

Those Wirkus twits certainly have a high opinion of themselves.  I hope they get a ton of feedback about being loud-mouthed obnoxious bullies - and then get dropped from the show.  They can take their familiar Lindsay with them.

[Stan39]

Looks like I didn't miss much last night. I was hoping to hear that Steven, Ashley, and maybe Lauren and Lindsey got called out but it doesn't sound like that happened. If they're not going to have a live audience or questions from fans then there really isn't a point to having a reunion. Stephen and Ashley can still just live with the delusions of grandeur and never apologize for anything. This show would be so much better without them, but I doubt Bravo sees it that way. 

[ghoulina]

Andy tried to call Stephen out....a LITTLE....on revealing what Carl told him. Stephen's defense was that Carl didn't tell him "in confidence". He said it to Stephen AND a group of his gay friends, whom Carl had just met. Stephen was under the impression that Carl was using it as a way to sound cool and funny with these friends, and that it wasn't some big thing. I still don't see why he needed to tell Lauren and, apparently, the entire house. Andy kind of let it go after that.

We already have a Jersey Shore reboot coming - I think these people are too freaking old to be hanging in a house every weekend drunk and blacking out.

I think Summer House should be put to rest.  Its a bully fest.  

But...did Lindsey ever confirm if her and Everett are back together?  if they are, PLEASE BRAVO do not put this shit show back on.

[janie2002]

I watched this show but I dont think I'll stick around for another season. It really is like 20 minutes of them driving up to the house, then packing and leaving the house. The rest of the time is them drinking and The frog twin taking out her saggy tit.

I'm, over it and Stephen is a sad loser,  I can imagine he is so facking draining. OMG Travis text me, omg travis didn't text me *dry*, let me be mean to Carl. Look at me, pay attention to me. STFU. I fast forward his scenes but the ones i have caught its just him being a little bitch.

And the entire TV viewing audience. Unconsionable. On every level. He's an insufferable dick.

I definitely see what you guys see, and there's no excuse for Stephen's bad behavior, but I do believe his pain is real. I can't hate him ☹️

I'm willing to believe, since this wasn't live, a fair bit of his contribution ended up on the cutting room floor because Andy has it for the twins and Carl.  I'm not impressed.

It should come back, no question with a different cast.  These people want to make you believe how put together and successful they are, but they aren't and the charade is over.

The twins are mean & nasty. Clearly they’ve been getting away w this bullshit their whole lives.

Lucky I wasn't there because I would have told them all to STFU! Screaming at the freakin' top of their lungs is such a habit with those shrews! It ain't attractive no matter the make-up job! The twins are too obnoxious for words and I wouldn't miss them if replaced; send Stephen packing with them! ;-)

[100Proof]

That Lindsey character looks like she got face surgery from jack the ripper. When will women that want their faces done understand that they will mostly wind up looking like ugly misshapen freaks of nature. Her boobs look exactly the same.... well maybe inflated a couple psi.

I just want to give the posters who watched this shit show reunion a huge thank you!, you spared me a lot of STFU's to twits de Wirkus, and a bunch of eye rolls to Lindsey.  Still don't like Stephen's attitude and puss face when he doesn't get what he wants   I still think Amit is a hot mute.

[RealitytvLover]

The Wirkus' are cruel, incredibly jealous (particularly Lauren), malicious, miserable women. Ashley's man will probably cheat on her especially with how demanding and demeaning she is, and Lauren....well, I don't think after this season she'll get that many high quality suitors so.... 

 

I was livid seeing them railroad Amanda. I wish she didn't cry and plead for their acceptance. I, personally, would've told the left side of the room to fuck off. I'd never want their approval, and if they did, I'd seriously question what I'm doing wrong in life. Carl dodged a blonde bullet. 

[Peper81]

I am beyond annoyed with Wirkus idiots.  Remind me again why Ashley had to be there for most of the reunion when she was only there for a couple weekends.  Her thoughts don’t matter and she should have been escorted off the stage after the Carl and Lauren relationship segment.  I can’t handle how they and Lindsay just feed off each other and just try to talk over and faster than everyone else.  Andy needs to shut that down.

 

I am also confused about Stephen’s bull excuses for why he decided to publicly talk about Carl’s story.  On the show he said it put him in the middle of Carl and Lauren and then at the reunion he says it’s because Carl said it amongst a group of his friends so he thought it was no big deal.  If it’s no big deal why did Lauren need to know and how did it put him in the middle?  The boy can’t keep his story straight because he’s nothing but a shit-stirring gossip who lacks a heart and common decency.  The truth is he wanted to hurt Carl and he knew telling this story to Lauren would do it.  

 

The Wirkus doofuses and Lindsay also can’t keep the story straight.  They lay into Amanda because according to them she only contacts them when Kyle is gone.  When Amanda points out friendship is a two way street and they don’t reach out they change their tune and say she doesn’t reach out and she blamed them for her relationship which wasn’t true at all.  They’ve seen all the episodes before the reunion so they know it wasn’t her and they know she was not the one to use the word bully but they still blame her for it because she’s somehow to blame for Kyle’s actions because they are dating.  Pretty sure Lauren’s head would explode if the same standard was placed on her when she was dating Carl.  I felt so bad for Amanda because I don’t think she likes confrontation and all those idiots know how to do is gang up on everyone.  I don’t understand why it’s so hard to just pull her aside and have a conversation with her.  Carl has managed to grasp this very basic concept and always pulls the person aside and talks with them so I don’t understand why these shrews can’t figure it out.  It doesn’t matter if Amanda and Kyle are putting on happy faces the next day.  It’s still possible to have a frank conversation about what happened the night before but I guess that wouldn’t make for great tv for them.

 

I think Amit’s only really contribution was pointing out how ludicrous the shrew’s claim was that there wasn’t any tension.  It’s a shame Andy didn’t ask him for more of his thoughts.

 

Lindsay and Everett are back together but Lindsay doesn’t want to admit they are back together on tv because then she can’t be the “boss bitch” she claimed to be a few months ago.  That unhealthy relationship won’t end until one of them moves far away.

 

I’d also bet money that Lauren and Carl will hook up again in the future and she will again think he loves her when all he wants is a piece of ass.  She’ll cling to any guy who tells her nice things.  

 

Lauren needs to learn how to blend her makeup.  Her face and neck were very clearly bronzed within an inch of her life while the rest of her was a more normal skin shade.  It was disturbing to me.  Lindsay needs style help ASAP.  Bigger boobs can’t fix bad style.  The girl either can’t or doesn’t know how to properly dress herself to present herself the best.  It’s tragic.

 

If the show comes back, I really only want to see Carl, Kyle and Amanda.  I could take Amit but he’s going to have to start bringing more to the table.

[Crazydoxielady]

The Wirkus girls with their weird smushed in faces and uber up turned noses can go away post haste. Ashley just couldn't keep her as* off our television, but of course after meeting Brad we know he is whipped and she can do as she pleases, married woman or not. That said, he is no prize, so there's that. Nice, but goofy as hell.

Lauren needs to work on being a better person, not focusing on herself. If that is one and the same then fair enough. She is still clearly attracted to Carl.

Carl looked yummy at the reunion. I love his relationship with his mom, he speaks well, and I have hope he will stop being a cad and settle down when the right gal comes along.

Stephen and his whiny whiny voice can go at any point. It drives me nuts. He looked a little thinner in the face, but still miserable. I am sorry his parents are religious trolls, but that will never excuse him outing Carl over a frivolous behavior from 10+ years ago. Dude can't get out of his own way.

Amit and Danielle are throw aways, added zero to the season (other than Amit being good looking) and should not be asked back.

Lindsay needs to realize she looks best with minimal makeup and natural looking blonde hair, and the foobs are not cute either. Of course she is back with Mr. No Chin.

Amanda is so pretty, they are all jealous of her youth and natural good looks and boobs, as well as her sense of fun. I don't think she did anything wrong this season. Kyle is immature, but overall the majority of the group ragging on them both came off as mean spirited and unwarranted.

I don't know why I watch this show, but am hoping to not see Ashley Wirkus or Meanny Stevey next season if I succumb to this mess again next season.

Everyone else seemed to confirm that they ARE together, but Lindsey was super cagey about it. Maybe she's embarrassed because she made such a display of stomping out of the coffee shop and declaring herself an "empowered" woman.

Wow, Amit basically said not a word.   They may as well have had one of their inflatable pool toys in his chair.   Guy is handsome though!  Danielle seemed trying to get in there though and fight for her spot.

Stephen looked cuter than usual but so weird they never mentioned his relationship status with that guy.

Ashley looked ok but Lauren looked like a gnarly old hooker.  Wow those chicks really despise Kyle n Amanda! The gang up reminded me of poor Cristina from last season. 

In my humble opinion Lindsey and Everett were not really broken up during the season.  I found it notable she didn't bang any of the sundry men she was around over the summer despite her loud insistence that she was single and horny.   Her and Everett are both awful so well suited I guess. 

This show, with this cast, can't come back for another season can they?   It's like a nightmare elderly cast of Real World that never changes!  

[greyflannel]

Lauren was just seething the whole time. Just because a guy you're having sex with is willing to date you too, that's not validation of this Great Romance fantasy you have in your head. That Carl wouldn't confirm that fantasy shouldn't be a surprise, it's not to anyone else. 

The venom directed at Amanda from Lauren, Lindsey and Ashley was really ugly, and said a lot more about the three of them than about Amanda. I don't believe Amanda is playing the victim, I think she's one of those people that cry when really frustrated and/or mad. Does Lauren have a crush on Kyle? She sure has a problem with Amanda being around all of the time, supposedly taking the fun out of her friend Kyle.

Although Steven didn't admit it on the show, I hope he admits to himself that what he did to Carl was vindictive and cruel. I also hope that seeing how mean, pouty, immature and self involved he was will make him realize he needs to make some changes. Or see a good psychiatrist. I'm not holding my breath.

Lindsey seemed to be in a happier frame of mind this season, but her desperate behavior with any guy who would stand still long enough was embarrassing. I'm pretty sure if a guy had behaved in the way she did, he would be branded a sexual predator at best. But, at the reunion, her mean old self was back in full force, reminding me of why I didn't like her in season 1.

I'd like to think season 1 showed Carl who he was and he tried to make changes. If not, the editors were kinder this season. He was likable on the reunion. 

Kyle really needs to get a handle on his drinking. Yes, the weekends are made for fun, letting loose, getting hammered, whatever. But getting that kind of sloppy blackout drunk all the time just isn't good. Even if he doesn't care about the health consequences, doesn't he think about potential clients? I know I wouldn't have confidence in someone like that. Anyway, he seems like a nice enough guy when he's sober to lightly toasted. He definitely seemed to be over his "friends" across from him during the reunion.

Danielle was really trying to be included, but she just didn't seem to fit in anywhere at all. Amit? I got nothin'.
