Wooo hooo!!! I love RH!! NJ is going to be so different without Caroline and Jacqlin, though.

Sanibel21

Guilty. I can't believe OC is almost over. I don't feel like a whole lot has happened, other than Shannon bringing the crazy. I cannot even describe how excited I am to watch Jersey. I'm really sad Caroline and Jacqueline are gone. But I can't wait to see Theresa and Joe during this crazy legal stuff! I only watch those two though. DH would kill me if I got sucked into another one! 

YankeePeach08

Ahhhhh I didn't know Caroline wasn't coming back! Is that why Dina decided to come back??? Does anyone know what exactly happened between them?

Sanibel21

I don't know anything behind the Caroline/Dina issue. I think it's weird Dina is friends with Theresa though. Gives her less credit in my book. I may go over to the Bravo website and see if Caroline or Jacquelines blogs say anything about why they left. I mean I can't blame them but still. 

@kirotea I haven't watched the London one. My reality TV quota is full for now, haha.

Atlanta is the only one I don't watch for some reason; I need to get into it, though! 

I also am bummed OC is almost over, it seems like it just started, and it has been rather boring! Where is Gretchen?! Why didn't she come back? Call me crazy, but I liked her! And Shannon's husband, yeah, he's done with that marriage! What does he do anyway?  I missed the part of how they have all their money. 

I'm watching NY right now, and I still stand firm that Ramona is all kinds of wack-a-doodle!! I really can't stand her; I wish someone would just duct tape her mouth shut! And, I really like Kristen, and feel bad for her that her husband is such a jerk!! 

I really hope they update on how Jacqeline's son is doing! and here's a link I found that explains a little about Dina and Caroline. It was always hush hush on the reason they were fighting; I'm sure it had to do with money, though.

Ok, I'm way too invested in these shows..haha.

Ladies of London is really good. I love it! I'm also watching Million Dollar Listing Miami which is great as well.

The OC, man Heather is getting on my last nerve, they need to keep Vicki and clean house. Although I like the 2 new girls.

I don't know if I'm going to tune in for New Jersey, all that fighting between siblings made my stomach turn.

JenW1029

I know what you mean about Heather. I use to like her when she first started but her true colors seem to be showing now and I agree with Shannon- Heather is a master "spinner" of all situations. I feel bad for Shannon her marriage is over... her husband is so done- stick a fork in it.

zartisterica

Did you guys see Lisa Rinna, as long as it's not that Faye Resnick.

RHWONJ fan here! Kathy is gone too I LOVED that fam!! Gonna be so weird without all 3 of them. I'm psyched for it to start up again!;)

fish8412

I love the housewives shows!!! I hope Phaedra divorces or has already divorced Apollo. What an idiot! I feel bad for their 2 little boys.

Heather is getting very annoying. I feel like the past 2 seasons she just demands apologies.

NJ should be really good this season!

YankeePeach08

RHONY - I think I may have watched the first season but didn't really watch past that, wasn't too interested.

RHOM - couldn't get into that one either.

RHOOC - I lurrrrve it.I thought Gretchen was so annoying but I'm curious is her and Slade got/will get married and if she has a baby. I think she is super immature and her clothing/hat/purse whatever it was line was fugly. I also think Slade was immature and creepy.

     Vicki - I like her a lot more this season. I'm not sure what to think of Brooks. I tend to believe anything that her daughter has said/insinuated about him but he seems to be behaving this season. In the past he definitely seemed like he was out to get her money/fame and all of his inspirational bullshit was annoying/fake.

     Tamra/Eddie - end of last season and a little this season Eddie has seemed kinda chauvinistic, it's hard to explain but he seems a little different now. He oldest son seems to be doing better (other than buying some type of illegal steroids or whatever).

      Heather - her story line seems to be taking a similar path to Lisa from BH. the first 2 seasons they were on they were portrayed as mature, having careers before/outside of the show, the others would go to them for advice and like they overall had it all together. Then they both either had their true colors come out or the producers did some major editing. All of a sudden they can't get along with the other cast mates and were really making themselves look bad (well actually look like all of the other women).

   Shannon - poor girl. do not go on a reality show if you have ANY doubt about your marriage. She seems like she had nothing going on but being a housewife and mom, was bored and having an identity crisis so she did the show. Now I think it is only a matter of time before her marriage is completely over. I think the show really exploited her when she was in a vulnerable place.

RHOA - I mainly watch b/c I live in Atlanta. I think there was a lot going on between Phaedra and Apollo last season. She seemed almost embarrassed of him and what he might do/say but she was stuck b/c she has 2 kids with him and couldn't divorce him b/c she had to save face. I think she had an exceptionally hard time b/c people warned her about marrying a "criminal" and she didn't' want to look dumb and have an "i told you so" moment. Really curious is she will be back next season (I wonder when it is filming??)

  nene should just leave the show, clearly she is too good for it (eye roll) or so she thinks. I used to like her but I'm bored with her holier than thou attitude.

  Kenya - I never really liked her but some things have been interesting. She dated that one guy for how long, talked about ovulating and having babies but I don't think they ever even slept together. I generally don't like her but after her and Porsha had that knock down drag out fight at the reunion I can't wait to see if they are both back and how they interact.

I also watch Kim Zolciaks show and it is coming back on. I probably would have grown bored of it b/c there isn't much of a storyline but since she had twins I will definitely watch. And to show that I watch waaaaay too much of this crap (if you hadn't gathered that already) I'm not totally convinced that they didn't use some type of fertility treatment. Something odd was going on. When they announced the pregnancy to her daughters they did it in the nursery at the new house they were in the process of building. the oldest daughter made a comment about 'how many are there?"....why in the world would a 16 year old ask that? why would she have any idea that her mom was having twins. I know most of the stuff on these shows semi-scripted but I'm pretty sure she hadn't even been to a doctor at that point. 

and now back to feeding and changing babies

zartisterica

Atlanta is the only show I will watch without a hundred other things going on. 

Nene is driving me crazy, she used to be fun and charismatic. Now she's got this over inflated ego and thinks of herself as an actor, a REAL actor. what a joke, it wasn't too long ago Sheree took her off that party list.

** I miss Sheree, I read they were trying to bring her back, I wish they would!**

Kenya is a trouble maker, bad to the bone.

Brooks from OC is super creepy and I am not sure why Vicki keeps him.

Gretchen was a disaster, once she was with Slade, it was all downhill. That purse line is fugly and how sad to get a "gift" that you need to make payments on ( the rolls royce). I'm glad she's gone though because Slade got on my nerves.

zartisterica

also did any of you see this? I'm so tuning in...

I watch NJ and NY. I'm psyched for Nj to start. I'll admit having schadenfreude at the Theresa and Joe situation. Those poor kids.

I agree!! OC has been so slow this season! I miss Gretchen too! Her and Slade are on the celebrity marriage bootcamp show but we don't have it  

Just how scripted do you ladies think the shows are??

marriage bootcamp already!!! i didn't even know they went through with it. I need to find that show and tune in.

I don't think they actually got married.

Did y'all see the previews for the parenting show on Bravo? Extreme Parenting is what I think it's called. It starts in August. I love all things Bravo!!

My BFF worked as a nanny for one of the housewives - the show isn't necessarily scripted, but definitely staged. The setup alone requires a certain amount of staging, but they would literally have it all planned out ex: so and so is going to pull in the driveway, camera needs to be behind so and so to catch their reaction. Drama takes some planning!

I'll watch literally anything Bravo airs. I really liked Below Deck, even though I know they casted the entire crew.

Sanibel21

I love Bravo too! I even liked Lisa Vanderpuffs spinoff.
I'm sad Trista and Ryan are in Marriage Boot Camp!!

knittinlins

I have fallen back in with the RH since I started staying home. Even record them now so I can watch in the morning while I have breakfast and LO relaxes.

I love the Ladies of London and have thoroughly been enjoying the replay of old RHNJ. I didn't know about Caroline not coming back, I will have to read the posted articles.

Also - I just saw on Hulu that the RH shows are available for streaming!!! Woohhhoooo

JenW1029

Meeee, I like the new show that he and Paul are staring in. Crazy plastic surgery stories! Terry is a funny guy...maybe Heather should let him talk once in a while on RHOC.

Is Botched on Bravo also? That couple must be rolling in the dough by now!

@Amentrikoski‌ I just saw it in E!
And I'm pretty sure they were already rolling in the dough; now they are swimming in it!!

I really like Terry too, he must be a very patient man to put up with Heather! She's been driving me Batty!

fish8412

Heather is annoying and thinks she is better than everyone else (talks down to people, demands apologies, etc). I have too many bravo shows to watch so I'm not watching Botched.

Bltbear82

Below Deck is coming back in August with an almost entirely new cast, but still going to watch.

I read an article on Botched and apparently the first episode has a guy that has had a ton of work done to look like Justin Bieber. Like intentionally. My mind is blown.

mfarmer0811

Ahhhh watching the 1st 5 minutes of NJ and am tearing up!

Sanibel21

I legit had goosebumps the whole episode! If they were going for guidice sympathy they got it. Melissa is playing nice but she's prolly all "karma's a bitch" in her head. Not a fan of Dina returning. And not too keen on these new chicks yet either. At any rate I'll watch to see what has been going on behind the legal headlines online.

Sanibel21

@Jennibeanjld‌ I think her opening re-entrance line irked me. And I just feel like she has rubbed it in Carolines face that she is closer to Theresa than her. Her zen-ness and effed up animal collection may eventually win me over! Hah!

mfarmer0811

Watching Kathie Lee and Hoda, and they just said that Lisa Rinna was fling to be on BH! Then they spas, well, we need to confirm that. Lol
But I bet she will be! I can't wait, I've always liked her!

YankeePeach08

just watched NJ, I'm not giving one bit of pity to Joe and Teresa...you stole money/lied and now you may have to go to jail and miss out on A LOT of your kids' lives...too bad! They screwed up their lives and their kids b/c they were greedy. yes I'm assuming they are guilty.

Also, the new twins look like they are shit starters, along with melissa's old friend.

I got extremely sad for the kids, not J and T. I'm still shocked they are still living in that house/mansion and driving luxury cars. I would be selling all that crap and putting money in a safe place for my kids before the government comes and takes it all!

And assuming they are guilty, they will probably just get a slap On the wrist anyways. I'll be surprised if they get any jail time at all.

Bltbear82

I didn't watch the full first episode of RHONJ but it killed me when Teresa explained that she was working on a new dessert line to pay for legal bills. Welcome to actual reality, where things cost money! I have zero sympathy for them but I do hope she gets a deal so at least one parent is around to raise their daughters.

zartisterica

RHNJ, I watched it and it pulled me in. Those twins are going to fit right in. Theresa and Joe going to jail, I have no sympathy for them. Here I am saving my money to purchase a freaking Prius, so yeah no sympathy from me. 

Sanibel21

I feel bad for the kids!! Not Theresa and Joe. But the way Bravo aired, it was all sadness for them and barely touched on the mass quantity of laws they've (probably) broken. So they're really trying to get sympathy.
Amber came right out of the gate starting shit when she said "Melissa and I both wanted to be successful. I went to school and she married money." Yikes.
I just caught up on OC which had more going on in the last two episodes than all season. I'm really disappointed that Tamara seems to be instigating all this shit. And Shannon is just nuts, but I can see how Heather's nonchalant condescending behavior can be infuriating. And there's no way Terry said he wanted to take down Shannon and David.
Ugh! So good!
I forgot I do watch BH too.

I agree!!! Teresa and Joe deserve jail time instead of sympathy. I hope their daughters one day know the truth and seriousness of what their parents did.

Shannon does appear to be crazy, however I think Tamra's lies and Heather's condescending behavior would drive anyone nuts. I like Shannon and feel bad for her. Heather has such a pompous attitude and needs a reality check. She has a nanny and chef. All of her kids are in school or day care so what does she do all day?

zartisterica

That was a great part!! I even rewinded it for my husband. He did not know what to say! Like what do you do when someone removes a prosthetic and bangs the table with it?  :-/

I cannot stand Aviva but I want her to stay on the show. 

[-O<

YankeePeach08

Tamra is totally stirring the pot! Also, why is she freaking out so much about her son getting married. I get that it is a big life event but she is being dramatic and making it about her.

Also, if Vicki knows that Terry said he was "taking down the Bedours" then why hasn't she said anything? It would help make Shannon look a little less crazy.

YankeePeach08

also just heard that Ramona and her husband split. I don't watch NY but I think this was just recent.

Sanibel21

Tamra got so busted! I loved how they kept showing clips of her saying what she denied saying!
Jersey was crazy this week too. I think Amber is bringing the crazy big time.
Do you think they secretly get paid more if they start shit?

I'm so glad Tamra got busted. Her reaction to the girls was so fake and the footage proves everything.
