It finally hit me: Nema reminds me of Adam Scott (Parks and Rec).  He seems charming and goofy.  I only hope the "Angelina Jolie's brother" vibe was a one-off.  And of course the whole hitting on GG/has a girlfriend situation appears to be another trip down Shervin Street.

 

Have you seen the Wet Hot American Summer show on Netflix, maybe the Reunion, where Adam Scott has to fill in for Bradley Cooper and they make him up to look very puffy??  He looks exactly like that!!

How do they even do that finger snap thingy? I got confused just trying to figure out how they held their hands to do it. Loved Mikes comment that his friend was a “sale rack Persian” because he couldn’t do it. 

I figured it out. Put your hands together and snap one index finger off the other index finger. The "snap sound" comes from the downward moving index finger hitting the  side of the middle finger and/or the web area between the two. The cupped hands amplify the sound.

At least it works for me that way.

Nema and Mona are weird af.

Their whole Parent Trap story is creepy and they need to be studied by a university's psychology department.

It really would make a good Ph.D. research topic. So far they seem connected/attracted - perhaps in a genetic recognition way, but without the normal boundaries that come from being raised together.

Ok I was going to bring this up but I wasn't sure if it is too creepy for this forum -- there is that genetic attraction thing that happens when siblings or mother/son, father/daughter reconnect after having not grown up in the roles.  It is super weird, but an actual THING.  I know that there have been a few recent cases in the "news" (DailyMail).  I am getting a weird feeling about these two, in that way.  ((((SHUDDER))))

They are all such high-maintenance, hot-house flowers and I don't understand how they got that way.  It doesn't seem like any of them come from or were raised with real serious money.  I know GG is supported by her family and Mike's family has some successful careers in it, but those seem like well-paid, white collar professional money, not like generational wealth.  Reza is a successful realtor, but not on a Million Dollar Listing level, right?  

Like, on this episode, when Reza said there were no five star hotels in Big Bear so he rented a beautiful home and hired a private chef, I thought, "You people stay in five star hotels?"  Then MJ was like, "Where's the maid?"  Like, the manner to which they are accustomed is white glove, five star service!?  How?  Why?  Then the new girl was like she wants to have a private teacher for her children so they can travel all the time and....where is this money going to come from?  They all seem to think if they act like they have a lot of money, the money will come to them?

Meanwhile they all live in the same types of shitty apartments as the VPR crew, and I know the VPR cast has to be getting paid more than them!

I assumed it was part of their flossing habits.

I could barely tell the difference between Mike and Shervin during the final kitchen scene in Big Bear.  In the earlier seasons I thought they were both handsome however, now not so much.  Their muscular upper bodies just make them look too stocky.  

I think it would be really weird to go to an ob/gyn that I went to high school with, but I liked what he had to say about being positive and supportive with MJ.

This episode is just a mess for me.  Having a hard time staying focused.

I am totally not feeling this Nema/Mona thing with GG...

I've already seen MJ's wedding pics, so I'm beginning to think that this will not be a show I need to see.

GG seriously.  What does Reza and MJ'S past sexual encounters have to do with you?  Close friends or not. That was uncalled for.

I like Tommy.  I can't help myself. I do.  And dang if I don't find Vida a little nicer around him.  I mean her bar is so low, but still!  Send them to baking class!

Mj's house!  The glass walls!  And a swimming pool!  She really does seem to be getting parts of her life together.

Okay.  Angry GG is back.  Yay.  Said sarcastically. 

Is Tito’s that good?

Nemo is an ass.  Run Erica.  Run and don't look back.  I haven't even met you and I say GO.

I really love that these guys actually eat.

Ooooo.  Vida flashback. Quick!  Get Tommy back.  I can't tolerate her without Tommy.  OMG.  She is such a hag to bring up her dad.  God bless the doctor. What a wonderful, kind man.  It probably never crossed his mind to bitch slap that bitch.  

What mom doesn't want to hear " Mom I'm dating hos"?  

Um?  MJ is turning her bridal party announcement into an episode of the bachelor?  

Tommy is with Shams?  Instead of the party?  Awwww.

Adam is very upset he didn't get a rose.  Very. Upset.   I've only known Brandon and Chris for a hot tv second  but I like them better.  And your Team Asa Adam. Team Asa. Her mortal enemy.  

Why would they do that?  GG has no self awareness.  If you were THEIR friend, you wouldn't be constantly be bringing up past hook ups.

You expect GG to be a b!tch and kvetch about not being invited to be a part of the wedding party, but that was shocking to see Adam be such a d!ck about it as well! I can't believe it; GG laughing in MJ's face when she's trying to reach out! I'd of walked away for good as well! ;-)

I love Destiney and have from TPC.  I think she is the prettiest out of all of them women- with Mona a close second.  They were busting on Nema and Mona for not speaking Farsi read- less Persian- but they actually lived in Iran when they were older unlike the others who left when they were very young.  My point is I think they remember more of Iran so I think that they are just as Persian as the others and maybe a hair more. 

I guess Morgan is Persian too?  A Sammy sighting!!!  YAY!!

Sammy? Is he "on the outs" with MJ after that double date fiasco where she's getting mauled by an 'ex' in the club while Sammy does nothing? She ran out of there like she had been raped! The next day he wasn't very sympathetic and undercut her desirability! ;-(

I loved the trainer yelling at the car, "Slow down!  There are children playing and MJ's running!"  I laughed harder than was necessary.

Right!  But!  She went back to being tolerable around Brandon and Chris.

I particularly liked when Brandon cracked up and was amazed when Vida complimented MJ on her dress.  Because that was kind of jaw dropping.

Wow.  Just like with Asa last season, the video evidence is *not* GG's friend.  First she's pouting over her exclusion from the wedding party, then braying that stuff like that doesn't matter to her.  And that's the least of it.

I hate wedding drama -- "How come you didn't make me Maid of Honor/ Best Man/invite me to the rehearsal dinner/shower/destination ceremony??"  It's all a big blinking sign that says: "Elope, dummies!"  I'm guessing that MJ asked her trainer & his husband to be in the wedding party because she's finally figured out that she doesn't need to have Teh Toxic yapping in her ear during the whole thing.  Goad her about a teen hookup with her gay bf, but you're stunned she didn't make you flower girl?  I'd love to be able to selectively mute GG.

And..Adam?  WTF??  Are you 12???  

On a happier note: loving MJ's new house, and the Vida/Tommy lovetrain.  Although damned if Persian parents can't resist the snotty little poke sometimes.

Gg was clearly tipsy when they arrived at the party but clearly inviting Shalom’s ex wife and not giving her the heads up was also supershitty because it was planned and then they doubled down by announcing it on stage to the full crowd as a way of introduction was not even close to the same level as what GG said. It’s  also shitty to Shalom’s ex wife to expose her to a blindsided GG.

GGs inability to control her anger or drinking though is completely on her.

MJ exercising! Good on her! I know it’s bc she’s getting married but I’m sure Reza’s newfound slimness is also motivational.

There is something wrong w Vida. She can be kind to everyone except her daughter.

New guy being honest is somehow wrong in Mike & Reza’s eyes. pathetic. ALS, #5: it was recorded & will be on tv.

congrats to Mike & MJ on their new homes!

I am side-eyeing the exclusion of GG & Adam (?) from the bridal party. Especially the way it was announced.

Did they say another of Shalom’s wives was there??? TEAM  GG  on this one. I need GG’s long necklace.

Such growth for MJ. She’s really gotten her act together. She says she has gotten a trainer to look good for her wedding but I think she's also considering being in the best health possible to have a baby. Smart woman. Her new home looks nice and more put together (cleaner) than her previous condos. 

I loved that within the first 5 minutes there were cameras pointing to food. Also when they were in Big Bear that last morning they had a breakfast spread of fruit and something someone was rolling up...breakfast burritos? I was wondering what they were going to do with all the leftovers as so many of them left without eating some fresh fruit or other goodies. So many shows feature private chefs when their cast is away but not the Shahs. They cook and it looks scrumptious. 

GG is pulling her weight as far as giving some shock value to the show. That wasn’t too bad when she asked MJ and Reza about their dalliance when they were very young when it was just the three of them in the bedroom.  I thought it was evil for her to keep bringing it up. Especially at the big party. GG,  if Tommy doesn’t have a problem with them sleeping together then neither should you. At least MJ called her beau to discuss the sleeping arrangements but GG stated that she’d bunk with Shervin but would never call for permission. I also wonder what would happen between GG and Shervin if she came to bed blasted drunk. He’s a bit of a whore/opportunist, and I wouldn’t trust him. GG may be a smidge better with her temper but she still has a long way to go. 

What was in that box shaped thing on the kitchen island? It had words on it such as: Stupid and Stoned. I don’t think that these guys are partiers (well maybe GG smokes pot as she also smokes cigarettes and seems to like numbing herself)  so I couldn’t figure it out. 

I guess Nema is a new cast member as is Destiny. I think I liked her better on TPC.

But there was no reason to tell GG she had shitty morals for not feeling it would be necessary and she specifically said “to ask permission” not just give a heads up. I mean that’s cool for MJ to have finally decide on those boundaries for her relationship but she went the extra step to say GG was shitty for not doing it. Gg and Shervin have slept together in the same bed they just seem to be close friends who aren’t sexually interested in each other.

I didn't watch this ep in its entirety, but did MJ's party planner really go to Costco/SAMS to buy candy for the party? How low-rent.

 

I've said it before, but I used to wonder why Adam tolerated Reza and stays with him. I guess I know why now...

For her health, yes.  She does know you can't exercise away those implants though, right?

I'm now beginning to wonder if she sees it as her schtick; that it's expected of her.  I guess I just don't want to believe that someone could be that unaware.

Seems very contrived.

Don't know if I've ever been team GG, but yeah.

So impressed with this group that they cook and clean at whatever resort they are staying.  Reza and MJ were seriously cleaning that kitchen. 

That’s because it was an off season air bnb. The only thing that made it different than Vanderpump is that Reza didn’t actually walk around with a binder like Scheana. I am still shocked that no one was hurt being based on how shitty the snow was which is we only saw two decent skiers, MJ and GG doing, anything on those crazy shitty slopes.

I'm still gobsmacked over Adam and his temper tantrum.

Adam was a whiney little bitch last season so it didn't surprise me but what did was the fact that Reza didn't bother to tell him before that MJ asked him to be in the wedding. Don't these two talk? 

Also, the whole MJ and Reza having sex once 25 years ago.....everybody already knew that and nobody ever cared before but now GG is trying to make it a big deal. Reza is gay so it's not like it's a threat to either Tommy or Adam. They must really be desperate for story lines this season. 

Mike and GG were on WWHL last night. When Andy Cohen said how nice MJ's house was and joking (showing pictures) of Mikes messy house, Mike snapped back with saying he owns his home, and MJ is just renting hers. What a prick. 

And these people all loooove each other and are like family.

I agree and she still spent $700. Why go to a "higher rent" place and pay a grand or more on the same stuff?

I can understand GG being hurt that she's not been asked to be a bridesmaid, but she needs to express her feelings better. I wouldn't want her either because she's way too fucking moody for that kind of thing. Adam may also have felt blindsided, but he acted like a child. If not for Reza, MJ probably wouldn't hang with him ever. 

I often wonder why Adam and Reza are together. Both are rather high maintenance in different kinds of ways.

I saw a few moments of WWHL and both GG and Mike seemed bitter/pretty angry with MJ and Reza. Now, I thought what Reza said about Mike dating and his mother was very funny (hair down to her tramp stamp). Mike's probably mad because while he doesn't want to date a ho, he doesn't go after the kind of girl his mother would like, either. Reza was just trying to get a laugh and Mike was taking it way too seriously.

It was interesting that MJ acknowledged that she and GG text everyday about her dad but it was all about her. I am not a GG Stan but you still invited Shalom’s ex wife and MJ didn’t deny that GG had ask for a casual meet up with her. Adam was thirsty but how Reza tried to backpedal from their mutual intro of Shalom’s ex when he was one on one illustrated he realized he even thought it was messy. Gg spurred it but it was info that was out there Shalom’s ex wasn’t and when she was going through it at the time added a layer. I also think it’s weird that Tommy wasn’t there and I think Shams was a weird excuse.

Weddings sometimes bring out the worst in people.  Adam and GG acted like the children they are.  Reza and MJ had sex a zillion years ago when they were teenagers, it's not like they were sleeping together months before MJ met Tommy. 

I thought it was funny what Reza did, Shalom's ex wife.  The way GG reacted was pure klass and I wouldn't want someone like that in my wedding either.  And then GG acts like a victim.  "Why are they doing it to MEEEEEE."  GG's name should be "Me Me" because it's always about her.

Reza didn’t even think it was a good move and when he talked to GG he said she was actually just MJs friend, despite what he said on stage. As GG said on WWHL why MJ and Reza standing on stage about an event MJ wanted to be all about her and try to force an interaction between Shalom’s ex wife and GG. She didn’t magically appear they planned it based on something they apparently always joke about (Reza and MJ fucking once or twice) in their group so GG bringing it up at Big Bear didn’t need that escalation. Invite Shalom’s ex to the party, hell even introduce them casually when people are mixing and mingling but announcing it from the stage was straight up nonsense that Reza tried to pretend he wasn’t involved in.

Gg even says you know I wanted to meet her but not like this and no one contradicted her it was crazy mean.

Give it to the core shahs Reza, Mike, MJ and Gg they talk shit to one another but even when asked about if Tommy and MJ will last longer than Mike and Jessica they were like yes! Though Mike was petty noting he owned his home (also he has to be doing some illegal activity or money from his parents because Andy mad a joke about his shoe line going nowhere) and MJ/Tommy was only renting. Do we know where Vida is living because it used to be across the patio.

Love all of this. GG is a monster with no control. She was married to Sholom for 20 minutes. That wasn't some great big love affair which needed all the gasps and screams and getting physically dragged out of the place, just because his other 20-minute ex wife was there. Who gives a rat's ass? Pull your shit together, GG, walk over and introduce yourself and have a conversation about your joke of an ex husband. Give me a break. The girl loves to put on a show for a camera. She loves the spotlight. She's an ass.

so Mona isn't a cast member! hooray for this at least. She looks like she's trapped in an elevator where someone has farted, it's a permanent expression. Given the company she's been invited into, I suppose that's not so surprising. I'm glad the cast brought up the weird dynamic she has with Nema. 

So tell me. Is there ONE persian man that's been on this show that is marriage material? Even the fathers of cast, like Reza's dad and Sham, MJ's Dad, all stepped out on their wives. Only Asa and GG and Mike, I guess, have parents who seem to love one another still. 

Mike continues to skeeve me out. That put on earnestness he adopts when he's trying to con someone else into believing something patently absurd was picked up by production this episode when they muted him out when he was raving about his new boo. The one he ditched for Mona briefly before he realised their 'philosophies' didn't align. And she's 25 to his Jax Taylor almost 40. Like when he's babbling about his house being a future house for the family and kids he wants. Or how the big money is in...wait for it...BABY SHOES. One of the cast commented this episode on how Mike needs constant attention and flattery. Mike is a narcissist. His Mum needed to straight up kick him in the ass when he was a teenager because it looks like Mikey Joon can do no wrong. Sherv the perv isn't far behind Mike either, in my book. He thinks he's all on the DL, but you can pick his creepiness at 100 paces. These straight Persian males live for clubbing and picking up the kind of woman Reza described (not that Reza can talk, and I fear for Adam sometimes).

When Destiney interrupted Vida and MJ, I got the feeling MJ was about to give her mother an ultimatum. Like: if you aren't going to be 100% supportive of my marriage to Tommy, stay out of the wedding. I'm glad Tommy and MJ are married and I think they'll last longer than Mike and Jessica did for sure. One thing you can't say about MJ is that she is secretive about her life. She seems to put it all out there, warts and all. I cannot unsee the anal bleaching from a while ago. I do get her complaint about Asa. But I don't think Asa is the devil. i think Asa is too highly evolved to be on this show.

Yes, that and seeing Lisa Rinna on RHOBH getting her butt waxed on camera. Aren’t doing these things embarrassing for them to do on camera?  For the life of me I can’t figure out why that is a necessary thing to do in their personal grooming routine. Then again I may not want to know.

I disagree.  I think Asa likes to think she's too highly evolved to be a full part of the show; but she's just as, if not more, full of shit as the rest of the cast.
