Generic Real Housewives thread. Comments on any franchise welcome.

[happilybemused]

As there isn't a lot of traction on individual threads I thought I'd create a generic thread as most of us seem fond of a few.

Loving the New Jersey trailer released today. Teresa is back to her table crashing ways. She seemed so chilled on the ultimate girls trip as well !

Just watching BH reunion, the MUAs need sacking. Dreadful makeup.

Oooh just watched the reunion. Looks like Rinna was egging Kathy on. Should be interesting next week.

I'm rapidly going off Kyle due to her gaslighting Crystal.

I think Rinna is a cow. She needs to say what Kathy said or stfu. And why didn't she record it? Or did she and she is holding it back? "Dark heart" was a very strong thing to say to Kathy unless Kathy said some truly awful stuff. Which I suppose she may have done, she is spoilt and entitled and probably not used to anyone calling her out on it.

And the whole grief thing making Rinna into a horrible person? To paraphrase Garcelle "you did that all by yourself" 😁

I think Garcelle is the sanest and nicest of all of them and it's awful what happened to her son. Poor boy.

I took Erika's point about them wanting her to virtue signal when she wanted the legal process to be concluded but she is still someone it's hard to sympathise with.

Crystal is a nutso millennial - hinting at racism isn't ok unless someone actually was racist.

Diana is also spoilt and entitled and I hope she goes soon. I think the illness was an excuse not to attend. I reckon they get paid less if they don't show up for the reunion but she DGAF as she's so loaded.

I feel sorry for Sutton, she is unfairly treated by most of them.

Also, WTF with new RHONY? Has everyone gone?!
OMG if so.

I liked watching LuAnn and Sonja and Ramona, for all their craziness. I wasn't keen on Leah. Or Eboni.

I dont know have they just let them go?

The thing about real housewives is you don't watch them for boring good behaviour and political correctness. You want a good old fashioned tequila fueled car crash. I want them to make me laugh not preach to me.

The last season of RHONY was awful though. There was so much screaming and yelling that I stopped watching half way through. It reminds me of when Vicki was in RHOC and that was exactly the same. By all means, have the occasional shit fit with each other but don't make that the essence of the show - that's just boring. The same with the Ultimate Girls Trip second season with Dorinda. Even watching it I felt like I was on eggshells, waiting for her to kick off.

I have just discovered SLC. I'm on the fence - it's early days at ep 6, but I don't find it as engaging as old school RHONY or RHOBH.

RHOBH reunion: I agree that something is off with regard to the break in. And Rinna's defence of her shitty behaviour with all the "I'm a work in progress". I feel like she's constantly acting. I remember her in Days of Our Lives (don't judge...it was the 90's, I was bored and living in the US ) and she was exactly the same! I really want to like Diana. She seems to be very real despite her immense wealth. But I don't know if it's siding with the European over the squealing Americans

@EdinaMonsoon Oh I like SLC, they are nutso too.

I love practically all the housewives franchise except Jersey. Just fed up of Teresa!

Is the recent series of Beverly Hills worth watching? I usually watch through heyu but wait until it’s all aired to binge watch. I’ve seen some snippets but it just all seems particularly bad this season.

Rinna crying at that dinner party is some of the worst acting I have ever seen

I seem to think that they were keeping some of the ‘original’ New York cast and calling it ‘Legacy RHNY’ but they paused it after filming for only a few weeks. It was Ramona, Jill Zarin, Luanne and Tinsley amongst others

Oh i hadnt realised they d started filming the legacy series yet. Have they filmed the one Sonja and Luanne were doing together yet does anyone know?
, Agree with comment earlier on the makeup in the BH reunion, it was SO heavy, real pagent style!

Anyone watching the new series of Potomac?

Yes I am, really dont know what all the fake drama over Mias Insta posts is about, no more attention seeking than the average RH post imo

yes, love Potomac. Confused by Ashley's divorce, they all get so involved in it, leave the poor girl alone if she wants to stay with him it's up to her. She doesn't seem that naïve to his goings on

Potomac is great, they are all such big characters, well apart from Robin

I think Robyn has upped her game this season. She is stirring the pot and Juan (sp) is looking resentful at a pre nup although she had to sign one pre marriage.

I love all the producer shade with flashbacks saying 10 minutes earlier.

I love Potomac

surprised everyone seems to be gunning for Candice's husband, agree with Robyn on that front that he really doesn't seem to have done anything wrong. Mia saying he was staring at her when he was looking in the other direction!

I think the truth of the matter is both Giselle and Ashley feel that Chris has become over familiar and regards them as friends.

In reality they are all cast mates as women and have to tolerate each other during filming.

The husbands are a no whether thrashing it out post reunion or trying to get you to come along the bar you are currently managing.

In the words of NeNe 'Keep yourselves out of women's business Patricia'

PS if Wendy wants to stop her stress induced hair loss perhaps not going into business with Peter Thomas is a start

Wendy is so different from how she came across when she initially joined.

😫 I’ve lost my chance to own the heated towel drawer

I can see Giselles reasoning though it wasnt at all clear to begin with. It wasnt anything to do with him or how he acted, it was her feelings around being on a room with any man in case rumors started, and in her position as a public figure thats a real possibilty, and in her position as a woman that has repeatedly cheated on she doesnt want rumors to cause issues in someone elses marriage. Theres a big BUT though.... BUT what she is expecting Chris to apologise for I have no idea. All she needed to do was say it to Chris on the day or address it with him afterwards, no need to be talking through his wife or conflate it with Ashley s turning a reply to your friends story as you idly scroll through Insta into a full on 'this married man was trying to entice me to a hotel bar in the early hours of the morning '.
