Link to Brandi's podcast episodes - http://www.podcastone.com/program?ac...&programID=582

Kim Richards was her guest on the last episode a few days ago. She's on about 30 minutes in. It's pretty surprising to hear them interact so well together considering how it all began.

The same old storylines being rehashed in Atlanta is boring me. Cynthia's sister vs Papa Smurf, yawn! What a nasty piece of work he is. If my fella talked to me the way he spoke to Cynthia, he'd have a nice handprint across his face.
As for Chuck, YAK. Not as big a catch as what he seems to think he is. And Porscha, Porscha, Porscha, what the hell was she thinking getting that huge house for her and two tiny dogs? Once those housewives paychecks dry up, she's gonna find herself evicted. You have to laugh at how delluded and irresponsible some of these women are.

Im finding myself skipping some scenes in ATL Nothing seems to be grabbing my attention:

This whole Chuck stuff is boring and not interesting…I feel like this NeNe's way of getting her friend singed for next season.

Porscha…. Spoilt brat… and buying that big house really? from what I have been seeing online she will be gone next season so not sure if buying a house like that she will lose it when the pay checks from this show stop coming in.

Cynthia and Peter….Yawn same old story.

So yeah for me ATL is really slacking this season.

http://www.allabouttrh.com/is-kim-zo...es-of-atlanta/

I am so ready for Kim to make a comeback to the show! I actually miss her and she can take Porscha's place. I mean this season on ATL the women are hardly all together anyway and doing there own thing so why not have Kim back… come on wig

and her spin of show has got another season and is currently being filmed, I thought it got cancelled but I liked her show so glad its coming back.

I agree, Atlanta is very boring at the minute. Looking forward to New York, full trailer is coming this week (Andy tweeted)

Is it? I heard the new season is supposed to be full to the brim of drama and even violence. I'll be looking out for the trailer as NY has always been one of my faves, even with the cast shake up.

The trailer looked promising but the episodes have been very hit and miss. The previous episode was definitely a miss - they had to bring some random woman's husband in to cause drama.

Half the cast being unlikeable or boring is another problem altogether.

I'm excited for NY. It's make or break time so they need to bring their A game or they're all going home.

Is New York worth watching ? For some reason it never appealed to me but I might give it a go

Oh you should definitely watch NY. It was the first one I got into and has had some great moments over the years. Their trips abroad are always gold.

I'm so excited about New York. The cast shake up last season was a risky hit and miss but I'm really looking forward to catching up with them after so long. Who knew the producers could find someone like Aviva who made Ramona look rational and slightly normal?!

I wonder if Carol will drop the calm and cool exterior and actually lose it this season? I still can't believe she actually referred to doing the show as her guilty pleasure at the last reunion - somewhat looking down or alienating the viewers with that comment. It's alright for viewers to say that about watching the show, but you shouldn't criticise the viewer from within.

LuAnn - she's so clueless that it's actually hilarious.

If Sonja mentions her damned toaster oven in Season 6 I'll scream!

Oh god. If she mentions any product I'm out. I just wish they'd fire her or at least demote her. Her downward spiral since the she first began is tragic to say the least.

Season 1 & 2 (especially the reunion) were really great and then it sort of went a bit pear shaped. Although seasons 3 + 4 were ok they were just too bitchy and personal. Then season 5 was bland until Aviva lost her sh*t.

LOVE the New York franchise!!! Rewatching Seasons 1 - 4 on Netflix really made me miss the old cast though! There was always drama and Ramona really is TV Gold. Her & Jill's ridiculous spats just made me howl with laughter
I have high hopes for Season 6, can't believe LuAnn is STILL there though - she's only good when Ramona's slagging her off!



Also, been watching RHOC Season 8 on Itv2. Really missed them, it's my favourite franchise out of them all. Vicki's face does look strange at first, but Slade was so cruel to call her 'Mickey Rourke' live on Radio. Wish she'd deck him! - I wouldn't put it past her

I kind of agree about Luann. How she's lasted 6 seasons is beyond me. She does, however come out with some classic lines at times. Luann 'You walked in there, with your Herman Munster shoes'
Alex 'Er, they were Louis Vuitton'
Luann 'Well, even Louis Vuitton makes mistakes'.
Loved that one.

The OC is the only one I don't watch at US pace as it's my least favourite of the franchise. I'm just starting to watch on itv2 and what the hell has Vicki done to her face? She actually looks older. Her mouth just looks weird. Although I guess the surgery wasn't long before they started filming, so she would have been still healing.

This weeks episode of Atlanta broke ratings records for Bravo and was apparently the highest rated Housewives episode ever which I find incredible as nothing really happened. Quite a feat though for a show in it's 6th season and makes a nice change.

Definitely worth a watch. NY used to be my fave franchise of the lot. It was the first Housewives show I got properly sucked into. Its had some real classic moments over the years, the early seasons are brilliant, and while Season 5 was a bit hit and miss (getting rid of half the cast in one fell swoop didn't really help)I still for the most part enjoy the NY ladies.

Cant wait for the trailer to come this week. I'm so ready to catch up with the NY women, its just been SO long between seasons. This is a make or break season for NY though, and I really hope it brings it. I have to agree though regarding Sonja, if I hear one more time about this mythical toaster oven Ill scream. She needs to let that drop and fast! I agree with Andrew, she seemed to be on a bit of a downward spiral and I found it really sad to watch.

Onto Atlanta, the last ep wasn't the best. Its still my fave franchise, but yeah this season has been a bit patchy so far. Why is a woman as beautiful as Cynthia still with Peter? Its beyond me. She could do a million times better. I didn't mind Peter last season, but he is a total waste of time. If I were Cynthia Id be keeping a serious eye on my finances around him. Her sister Mal is back and staying with her and the issues are still as clear as day between her and Peter. It does feel like a bit of a re-hash of the stuff that happened in season 3 though.

Porscha is seriously going to regret that big house just for her and her dogs?! What was she thinking. Shes 32, yet she runs around like some spoilt princess. Kenya wont be the only one getting evicted if its true that Porscha is for the axe next season, good luck paying for that house when the Bravo $$ stop coming in!

A Kim Z return to RHOA? Id actually welcome it She was a bit of a spare part before she left, she clearly didn't want to be there anymore, but if she were to come back and really get involved again, Id love to see that. I'm a big fan of Nene and Kim together.

Is it true her spin-off has been renewed? I really hope so. I loved Don't Be Tardy- its a great little show Kim is incredibly entertaining. Her kids are so adorable as well.

I know the reason RHOA is the only franchise I watch (having caught bits of other franchises) is because its the only one that feels like its not totally scripted.

Its the only one that feels like some of the women are actual good friends and its the only one that deals with real issues that people can relate too, and deals with them in a not too staged and OTT way.

I think people are just sort of over OTT drama (not just with the RH franchises but look at the Kardashians delcining ratings too) and enjoy watching RHOA because it just feels a bit more real and relatable.

I know from some of the US forums that I go on that lots of people feel the same way about RHOA so the mega ratings don't surprise me.

I think I'm more shocked at Sonja waiting an entire year (Until they started shooting again) to have a Doggy funeral for Milou and then the ashes blow back in her face haha

NY looks like it's really delivering on drama this season and the new(ish) ladies are getting stuck in. Surprising lack of Aviva in that trailer though.

The final shot of her leg cracked me up though. It's like a mafia warning or something!

And it seems they have to blur out Sonja's vajayjay AGAIN!

I watched it on the Bravo website. You need a proxy to play it though.
