Oh goody, it’s time for the Real Psychiatrists of Orange County.

[Straycat80]

Gina’s vocal fry is killing me. 

[Thumper]

How many throw pillows does Gina need in the casita??????  There were many many in there, and she's bringing in more.

[Mu Shu]

Casitacasitscasita.

fire Gina right now.  Her ass lives in a studio apartment.  If I wanted to watch people living in a studio apartment, I’d look in a mirror.  My eyeshadow is better and I have an actual fucking walk in closet.  This shit is trifling.

At least her obnoxious children aren’t there.

[Mindthinkr]

Are Kelly and her ex Michael still flirting?

[pieinmyeye]

SHUT UP, GINA!! You don’t know your ass from a hole in the ground.

[Straycat80]

One thing about Kelly I’d that she’s a good Mom and kudos to her and Michael for working together to co-parent. 

The tea reader sees SH need help, could be Shannon, could not, could be any of them because they are all SHit stirrers. 

[LilaFowler]

The tea lady should keep her day job.

[Mindthinkr]

Tamra looks very uncomfortable at Emily’s. Her eyes said it all.

And the Not So Real Fortune Tellers...

I mean, who DOESN’T know a “SH”? And who here thinks she wasn’t fed that stuff to begin with? Reminds me of the fortune teller lady on Mama’s Family, who got all her intel from Vint on their rides to Mama’s house.

Bwahahahahahaha!!

[bosawks]

C’mon BRAVO, you couldn’t pay for one snippet of one song from “Oliver!” ?

[ivygirl]

WTF how do you have life insurance on an ex???

[Straycat80]

How the hell was Michael and Brianna not going to find out about Vicki’s face lift, it’s on TV! Duh!

There isn’t insurable interest  in an ex with no dependent children.  She had the policy prior to the divorce.  I’m not sure it’s valid, though.  

[Wicked]

Michael seemed genuinely concerned about his mother.  Have to say that surprised me.

Was he concerned about her or her money?

[Mu Shu]

Yeah that party decor and golden girls sequin dresses are tacky as fuck.

[TexasGal]

Oh god, finally Vicki got casseroles.  

Yeah, sure Tamra, you forgot to call Gina about dinner.  

[noveltylibrary]

How is it that Vicki looks worse with each facelift she gets?  Give it up already!

[Bronzedog]

No Archie tonight?  Why am I watching?

[ivygirl]

I think the enema party is more fun than Gina’s belabored sequin dinner.

[Mu Shu]

I’m not going to lie.  This Abuela party looks like fun, and Tamra is being funny.  Thank god the Ick took an elephant tranquilizer.

[jaybird2]

i'm laughing so hard at shannon & tamra

[Mindthinkr]

Why ever would Tamra decide to do an enema...for the first time...in someone else’s home and on camera? 

Desperate for what? She has her orange. Is there a competition between the ladies about who can do the worst storyline? Well maybe just between the geriatrics. 

[LilaFowler]

I dislike the ageism from the other women. Emily isn't really that much younger than the Tres Abuelas.

[jmcd44]

I think I’m done. I’ll come back & read all the awesome comments & listen to Watch Whst Crappens. But entertainment is now listening to a bunch of old bitches (I am old bitch myself) screech at the top of their lungs about enemas? The tres amigas make me want to bang my head against the wall. 

And fuck Vicki & her cancer scamming ass forever & ever. She makes me ragey. And I could watch the news before I go to bed if I wanted my blood pressure to rise. 

Edited to add: thank Vicki’s Jesus this show is done next week. 

Edited November 13, 2018 by jmcd44
Blinding rage followed by some relief for my blood pressure.

[Mindthinkr]

I’m seeing the clear division between the OG’s and the newbies.

Yeah and when push comes to shove, Kelly will side with the Abuelas, and Emily and Gina will be one and done. Next season, get rid of those two and bring Heather back, maybe Alexis.

[Bronzedog]

This is already over next week?  Why do Below Deck and Vanderpump Rules go on forever?

[A-Lo]

I am loving Gina's sparkly cocktail dressed friends celebrating her birthday in what is clearly an informal OC restaurant where the other patrons are wearing shorts, tee shirts, and jeans!  Was that all they could spring for?

I just think there has got to be more to Gina’s divorce story.  I think she playing along like it’s mutual to save face.  Of course who would want to stay with someone who only lives with you 5 of the 7 days a week.  I have relatives that commute daily from LA to Laguna Beach for work.  I think it will come out one day that her husband has had someone on the side for a while.

She sure mentions age a lot.  I’ll point out her beloved MIL is a lady of a certain age.

Gina is just a suburban street rat who is too fucking stupid to know that when you poop out three kids, you don’t hunker down in a fucking studio apartment when divorcing.   Casita my ass.  Get a real divorce attorney you rumpkin. 

[Straycat80]

I hate to agree with Vicki but she’s right, Shannon is not mentally ill, she’s emotional. Plus she’s going thru a divorce and meno-pause. 

I didn’t like the ageism either. This is why Shannon will never be friends with Gina and Emily. Aside from the enema stuff the tres Abuelas looked like they were having more fun than the other group. 

[ghoulina]

So now Gina is spinning the throwing of Tamra under the bus into a situation where Shannon manipulated her into saying those things. Come on, big girl; you wanted to stir the pot, you can't let go of the spoon.

The more I hear about her relationship with her ex, the more I think he was the one who wanted the divorce and she's just acting cool in the hopes he'll change his mind. He calls for her birthday and then tries to get freaky? Um no. He just wants to play. I wouldn't abide that. 

And I thought the casita was on their property? Like a pool house type of thing. They're actually paying for 3 separate homes? What does that man DO?

So I'm pretty much over Gina, but in the case of the birthday party, I'm totally on her side. Tamra did NOT just forget to call. And she's not as badass as she acts. Can't even suck it up and make a phone call. 

 

No enemas on tv!!!!

 

Michael and Kelly - another couple confounding me with their relationship dynamic. There's definitely still chemistry there. But I guess the actual relationship part was too dysfunctional. 

 

The most disturbing part of the episode? Hint, not the enemas. No, it was the fact that Vicki still has lide insurance on Donn. Better sleep with one eye open, dude.

[noveltylibrary]

wtf is a casita?  i hate when obsolete words are used that everyone's supposed to understand.

There seriously cannot be any other explanation.  None of this makes any sense.  And I learned the hard way men don't leave unless they found someone else.

I hope everyone loses.  This show has gotten so bad I'm ashamed I still watch.

Ditto!

[noveltylibrary]

I agree with Gina, it's a pocketbook!

[msblossom]

This season has been the worst! On second thought, not the worst (the last 2 seasons w/Gretchen come to mind). Definitely the most boring. 

 

Bravo, please ditch Emily and Gina! And give us Jeana Keough. 

[enchantingmonkey]

If next week is the finale, I may have to reconsider thinking last season was the worst ever.   Last season was painful but this season has been a total snoozefest.  Did anything happen besides a handful of attempts to make Shannon have a breakdown?

Nope, this whole season was poke Shannon, poke Shannon and keep on poking Shannon!

She was going thru alot but for ffs give the woman a break!

[nexxie]

I’m actually enjoying the new blood on this show - the age of the grannies isn’t a problem but their usual shtick is realllly old!

[msblossom]

I’m starting think the Housewives franchises are winding down and have run their course, with the exception of NYC. 

[noveltylibrary]

Oh brother  could that "reading" have been more staged?  Gina gets "you need to help Shannon".  Can they at least make it a little believable??

Me too, I'm embarrassed for myself!  I watched it years ago.  I happened to tune in tonight & stayed because I wanted to see how they looked after their surgeries.
