I don't really get why they had to waste our time with Eva. She had no beef with any of the HW, her beef was with side characters with her being a side character herself. I know she is a 'Name' that will be promoted next season but she literally brought NOTHING. Even her time to "shine" was cut short by Cynthia getting into with Porsha!

I love that Kenya read Marlo left,right,up,down, and around the corner. I never really had a problem with Marlo but this season she just annoyed me more then usual and she needed to be put in her place. Her trying to be like "you're hurting my feelings by calling me a prostitute"  girl...now your feelings are hurt for what you call a "lie" but you go after Kenya over her mother? And her husband? Ok...

NeNe needs to regrow that personality that she has seemed to lost forever ago. I'm tired of looking at her stank face when she isn't in a position to tell a joke, she looked annoyed through most of it and even when all the other women were able to laugh she just sat there crossing her eyes looking angry. And she didn't take ownership for her rape comment, she blamed it on the audience! And tried to pass it off as a joke! When we all know damn well she didnt mean it jokingly.

I figured Bravo would wait until the very end to bring out Kim. It is such a shame who Kim has turned into because for the longest time I wanted her back on the show, I was ready for some fun from her and NeNe but Kim was just nasty the entire season and she brought ZERO fun the entire time she was around. All she did was drag down the scenes she was in so I was/am ready for her to get what she is owed this season. 

I used to like Kim, too, but, seriously, NeNe has gone so far afield with her Queen routine and nastiness that I am pretty indifferent to her victimhood vis-à-vis Kim. I agree with everything you said about NeNe. Kim didn't bring anything this year but trouble, but I feel the only thing NeNe brought were her appeals to Porsha to grow up and give a real apology.

Porsha is still a main irritant to me and Marlo is simply mean. The four of them could go and I would be happy.

I loved Cynthia's smooth response also. It was right on time. I was proud of Cynthia. I think Kim has burned her bridge with Andy , he was offended by the roach video as well. It was just a very low-down thing to do. Also Kim tells so many lies , she starting tripping over her lies , now tell me who would send her a picture of Nene's car at the mall parked in a handicapped spot? That heifer knows she took that picture !! Lies , lies and more lies. I can't wait until shaky-voice Kandi jumps in her shit next week. Lol !!

One thing I haven't figured out is what Kim has done to Kandi that she keeps getting in shaky voice mode. I would understand if she had done that when Kim really screwed her by not paying her anything for the song, but she was pretty cool with that, considering. I know she is annoyed that Kim doesn't show up and commit to the show, but I can't quite buy the idea that that is so upsetting to her that she is personally offended by it, resulting in the shaky voice. There has to be something else.

I wonder if the reason Nene can park in handicapped spaces is because of Greg and she just doesn't want to talk about it?

That could be. Otherwise, she is a jerk to have done so and managed to skate by her opprobrious behavior by deflecting onto Kim and her unfriendlike behavior, which, IMHO, somewhat pales in comparison.

Someone, maybe Andy, did ask her if she parked there because of Gregg and she said Yes and because of her other passenger as well. She said that they have a permit to use the handicapped parking space. Kim, of course tried to talk over her at the time.

Thanks! All I heard was NeNe shouting "the other person" and I couldn't understand much else as they were all screeching on top of each other. 

[Ubiquitous]

Is it safe to assume the only reason Eva was there was b/c Andy was hoping there'd be a "reunion baby"? The only thing i remember ob her is her claims  ob Cynthia's boyfriend.

I just wanna know what kinda hoodoo-voodoo Marlo is doing to be able to land a millionaire who buys her a house and cars and all else—-she’s a batshit crazy felon and not even all that attractive, so I’d sure like to know her magical secrets for entrapping such a wealthy suitor. But then again, I said the same thing about Kim back when she was getting homes/cars bought for her by Big Daddy, so maybe confident golddiggers are naturally more homely and rich men are infinitely more desperate in Atlanta.

And apparently I’m in the wrong line of work!

Nene actually mentioned this during the season when Kim initially brought it up. Nene had a temporary handicap placard because of Gregg's heart condition and surgery/stent(?).

When Kandi gets upset , shaky voice comes. She's very emotional, I just wish she could express herself without the tears.  It's not exclusive for Kim, Kandi goes shaky voice when she's angry , her emotions always get the best of her , it doesn't matter who she's speaking too.

Marlo's receipts were very weak and nothing exudes class like a cracked screen on your cell phone.  At least transfer the messages to your computer.

ALl I saw was Marlo post a picture of Kenya with a white guy, Kenya asked if Marlo could locate a Birkin-which apparently never followed through on and Marlo having Kenya as a guest to a NYFW show.  Yawn.

I really don't think Marlo has much of a chance for a peach if that is best she has.

A little Nene and Sheree beef:  

Keeping it classy.

Whew, thanks for all the tea, @zoeysmom! I give Marlo a pass on the cracked screen since it looks like an old phone: no service and the messages were from almost 5 years ago. Great eagle eye, @WireWrap! I love a messy crossover :)

I agree with whichever poster said this reunion could have been done in 1 part instead of 3; I feel that way about pretty much all the 3-parters. 

I'm sure I'm in the minority but I loved Porsha's look, you can see what she was going for and she nailed it from head to toe. Yes, it's ridiculous, but so are most of the ballgowns (to a freaking reunion couch!) and other reunion looks these other women wear that don't even have a theatrical element to them and are just plain ugly.

He probably also wants her to continue on the show next season.  She'll have quite the storyline with a baby and a wedding to a local politician.  

[SheTalksShit]

I really liked Nene towards the 2nd half of the season. I really can't stand her when she gets crazy, though, the way she did w/Porsha and Kim. I think she is a good person, with a good heart, but when she's angry, she gets full blown psycho, like a rabid dog, like I feel like I'm watching animal planet. I felt bad for Kim when Nene came at her during Season 4 on the bus to Miami, I was disgusted w/Nene. Same thing when she came at Porsha earlier this season.

During the reunion this time around, when addressing Kim, Nene started off ok, said, "No, the issue is right here," gesturing towards Kim. Nene yelled at her as the 2 jabbed back and forth, but Nene was still ok b/c she was able to stay on point, yelling at Kim about the actual issue (b/c I agree, Kim was in the wrong, big-time). Things seemed to be calming down when Kim said she didn't give a fuck about her parking in a handicapped spot, that it was just a funny joke, Nene rolled her eyes and said she parked in a handicapped spot b/c Greg is handicapped, as is the person she was with. But Kim just had to reply with an eyeroll and throwing her hands up in the air, and that got Nene going again and that's when Nene lost the plot, started talking about Kim's fake boobs and all this other shit that was just weird and not a good look for her. 

Nene realllly needs to work on controlling herself and not letting anyone have that much power over her, b/c it makes it so hard to be #TeamNene (at least, for me) when she loses it like that bc she becomes totally unhinged. Kim sucks and deserves to be yelled at and called out, even ganged up on, but FFS, it's not like she killed your child, Nene, which is the only time I could understand Nene becoming as unhinged as she does when she's dealing w/Kim. 

I do like watching Kim finally getting what she deserves from the other girls, though. The whole season, she pranced around like her shit didn't stink, bringing Kroy everywhere, refusing to participate in activities, etc. If you can't spend a few nights away from your husband, then being a cast member of the RHOA is clearly not the job for you. She should stick w/Don't Be Tardy.

Hockey Addict's brain believes that Kim inside knows her own frailty now more than ever and her extra arrogant behavior may be cause she's a butt hole but maybe also a mix of things. She clings to Kroy because he is all she has besides her kids. Both her and his parents are out so there's that. Inside she has to know her money won't last forever and she pumped out several mouths to feed (also an effort to make sure love muffin wouldn't stray?) Just theories.

Maybe so, but if she knows she's got all these mouths to feed, she ought to know that if she wants her peach back, she's gotta work for it! That means not doing the bare minimum, not leaving every event/venue 15 minutes after she gets there, going on the GIRLS trips WITHOUT her husband (come on, lady, it's like, 4-5 days), etc. And if she can't handle that, then get your ass off the show. It's her sense of entitlement that bothers me. She thought that after a 5 year haitus, where she's barely seen or spoken to any of these girls, she could just come back into the mix, talk all this shit and judge all these ladies who actually DO what's required of their job as a RHOA cast member, acting like she knows what's up with Kenya, Kandi, Nene, etc. and she thought that would fly? She expected that to be enough to earn her a peach? Hellz no.

Really, I mean these women are not all that special. There are a million times better looking and smarter women in Atlanta...so I have no idea why the hell rich men were supported these two totally played out wannabes.

Kim is probably hoping that she and her daughters will turn out to be the blonde Kardashians of Atlanta.

Because better looking and smarter women have either wifed up a younger good looking rich guy or are too busy doing worthwhile things (working, traveling, going to school, volunteering, hanging with friends and family, and otherwise living their lives).

Here's what Kim has forgotten about the early days of the Kardashians, Kris didn't just let them ho themselves to fame and fortune. They had clothing stores, were stylists, and assistants. Those bitches hustled unlike Kim's lazy brood.

Done! ;-)

I found it amusing watching Kroy help Kim adjust her spanx before she joined the ladies on stage.

Not everyone who voted for Trump is stupid and not everyone who voted for Hillary is smart. Reality stars - fair game, politicians - fair game. Bashing people you’ve never met - not cool (FYI, I voted for a write in candidate)

[Gam2]

I stopped watching HWOA years ago for a variety of reasons, mostly the screaming and yelling. The same reason I have given up on the others. However, sad to say, I happened upon episode 2 of this year’s reunion. Again, the screaming, yelling, everyone’s boobs hanging out (not only on the reunion but also in the clips they showed), the HUGE false eyelashes, the HAIR, the dresses. OMG. So tacky.

[Gam2]

Kim just came on. She looks like an absolute freak! I don’t know how her husband can stand to look at her.

Especially now that she just majorly sunk their ship with her lips. I'm not a man but I'm thinking if it were my wife she'd be a lot less desirable to sleep with at night. Or procreate with.

I couldn't say why they are jealous, just that something drives them to be so nasty. I'm also not saying I love Kim, but her show is much more entertaining that this mess. I'd much rather watch Tracey and the kids and the more light hearted approach to life on DBT than women constantly screaming and trying to take each other down. I didn't watch the whole season because I don't find it interesting in any way, and I don't find any of them likeable. There's no house porn and they don't really do anything. I just caught the 2 reunions.  

This. When you break it down piece by piece there is really not much for anyone of them to envy about Kim. However, these are all grown ass women who repeatedly sell their soul, and their dignity, season after season to stay on this mess of a show. Deep down they want the screentime & the recognition of being a "bravolebrity", embarrassment be damned. Kim has all that without having to share the spotlight with anyone week after week, regardless of what night her show airs. You don't think any of them would jump at the chance to see their face on their own show over and over (for more than 5-6 weeks at a time?)
