Hi LittlePiglet, I for one would like a thread for ITV2 viewers, I too get abit lost on here
Just caught up with reunion shows, cant wait to find out why Jaqueline didn't show, I quite like her, Teresa used to be my fave, but have really gone off her in this season, her hubby Joe is a pain in the arse, drinks too much red wine, bit of an alchy me thinks!
I like Kathy, cant take to Melissa, and Caroline is coming across as 'too bloody perfect'

So it you want to start a thread, you go for it!

Has anyone watched this week's Melbourne? I'm loving Gina!

Holy sh*t. Looks like the best BH reunion ever! I'm going in team Kim and Kyle...and partially Joyce. I don't care for the others. I'm interested to see if the rumors about Joyce butting in and annoying everyone have any fruition.

Yay for 3 part reunion! Kyle and surprisingly Carlton look great just very superficially. Andrew I don't know which polls you have been looking at but by looking at the comments on the bravo blogs I wouldnt say Yolanda is very popular at all. Which i'm happy with after seeing the previews for the finale and what she says to Ken. What a stupid stuck up cow I do agree that Lisa is starting to milk the victim act a bit much atm. I hate how Brandi is trying to act like the victim at the reunion though. If anything she dropped Lisa for Yolanda. Caused a ton of shit for Lisa and wonders why Lisa doesn't want to be friends? She is a mess.

Has anyone done the 'What housewife are you?" quiz on Buzzfeed? I got Kim Richards!

I created it! here is the link - http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showt...8#post71644188

That reunion looks crazy and surprise surprise looks like a Team up against Lisa, Kim is desperate to stay on this show so of course she has to start shouting the odds. Kyle i can understand but Kim just milks her sobriety and has done for the past 2 seasons now.

Brandi looks a mess and she i s the one who dropped Lisa, she is the one who talks crap about people, and she has to bring up her husbands affairs which was what 8 years ago.....Brandi just shut up your pathetic. Who can blame Ken for not wanting anything more to do with Brandi...she showed what a bitch she is on this season.

Im surprised at Joyce and Carlton looks like they are bringing it but that is just promo we have to see how they are throughout the whole reunion.

Thats what annoys me about Kim, am I suppose to feel sorry for her that she was an alcoholic? Well I don't. I feel sorry for her kids. She did it to herself and she has to face the consequences of her actions during that time. I believe Lisa and Ken had decided to move on from Kim skipping Pandoras wedding but with Kim repeatedly bringing up her daughters graduation I don't blame them!! They said they were not going and sent a gift! Far more then what Kim managed to do

Exactly with Kim she always says 'I was ill, i had a problem' blah blah blah get over it and stop brining it up. Of Course Ken and Lisa will say 'you never showed up to our events' cause Kim keep brining it up. I think Kim is only on this show because of Kyle...If she didn't then Bravo would let her go simple, what does she bring to the show now? The first 2 seasons she had a storyline...then S3 we see her getting well and doing well but now its just her milking it and playing the sympathy card which has made me not like her anymore.

No they didn't.... they lied. They made up a story while claiming they absolutely, positively would have been there if they could have been. That was Kim's problem.

And of course they had to lie, Lisa was always the first with a snidy comment when Kim was a no show. So to make her not look a complete hypocritical idiot she would have to make up a lie to get round her not just wanting to go.

And so when Kim calls them out for lying and being disingenuous, for some strange reason they compare it to Kim not showing when she had an honest problem.

Lisa is incredibly intelligent but is incapable at understanding the nuances of interpersonal relationships. Sending a present with your patronising bull sh*t does not make the person you're bullsh*tting to feel any better.

Sorry, but your clear disliking of Lisa is clearly clouding your judgement. Lisa was at a charity event that day out of town. She RSVP'd to say they wouldn't be there and sent a gift (something I doubt Kim did when she had her HONEST problem that kept her from attending an event.) So what exactly is not to get? If I invited someone to a party and they RSVP'd saying they couldn't come I wouldn't care if they were sat at home all day playing with themselves, the fact is they RSVP'd (ie Good manners).
Now even if Lisa did say she would try and make it if they were back early enough and EVEN if they did get back early enough to attend, the fact is they had already RSVP'd saying they wouldn't be there.
I am willing to call Lisa out when needed, but on this occasion she did nothing wrong. I don't know how Kim has the nerve to go on about it as whatever the reason was that she missed all those events (probably smoking crack by the sounds of her voice) she is a hypocrite.

I actually think you're the one who's judgement is clouded. Kim's problem with Lisa isn't that she never showed up, I'm not sure how may times she has to say it before it will sink in. Her problem was that she lied about where she was instead of being honest about where she was. Which, before you deny it, was caught on camera when she said she was away for the entire weekend, then proceeded to call the hairdresser a liar, on national TV, to then say that she came back Saturday afternoon...I don't where you all live, but that's not a full weekend where I live or anywhere I've been. The party was on Saturday night so she could have went. If she had just been honest and said "I had other plans" or something to that effect then there wouldn't have been a problem. Just another instance of Lisa's lies creating an issue.

BIB- how crass. Seriously, low and crass.

You conveniently skip the part where I said Lisa RSVP'd saying she wasn't attending. That's the end of it in my book. If someone has the common decency to RSVP declining an invite it's over, doesn't matter where they were, or for how long they were gone.
Crass? Don't get mad at me for Kim ruining her voice from doing drugs, i'm merely pointing it out.

There's nothing decent about RSVP-ing a lie, especially when you flower it with a disingenuous notion you really, really want to be there. That's a crappy thing to do.

Of course it could be argued that she did it so as not to hurt Kim's feeling but the fact that after she was exposed instead of going 'I'm sorry, hands up I was just trying not to offend you' she continued to lie, accused others of lying and did her best to manipulate that idea while painting herself as the poor victim. If she RSVP'd and it was the end, why did she need to try and throw others under the bus with her continual fibbing? And why did her husband need to deflect the fibs by changing the focus away from telling fibs to not showing up?

It shows how superficial they are that anyone thinks turning up is the issue.

Kim's clear issue with Lisa (as she has implicitly stated on numerous occasions) is Lisa harps on about concern and support and says all the right things at the right time but only does so for her own selfish reasons. The reality is she makes little to zero effort with Kim. And she doesn't have to at all, Kim makes very little effort with Lisa. The difference is Lisa is the loudest voice when it comes to boasting about how supportive she is and such an amazing friend despite never do too much in the way of actions to suggest that.

And I personally don't think my dislike for Lisa is clouding my judging. My dislike for Lisa comes from how I judge her behaviour. And to be honest I think it's a bit rich to talk about my clouded judgement. As much as I might dislike a person it would never cloud my judgement so much as to encourage me to make unfounded attacks regarding crack abuse just because they were a bit annoyed about someone I like.

I didn't conveniently miss it out, it's irrelevant as I've already stated the point was that she lied...which you conveniently fail to acknowledge. I'm not mad, it is crass and based on little evidence. Smoking crack is clearly not what her problem was, anyone who's studied into drugs and their effects is able to notice that. Her problem was that she was abusing alcohol and prescription medication such as Xannax, which she takes for anxiety. Her voice has always been like that, all the way back from LHONTP


Wow. Mo is doing so well with the agency. He's the number 3 in America. He, personally, is raking in a minimum (3%) of $11 million annually from commission sales alone. Plus he'll get a percentage of company profits which must be huge considering two of his agents are also in the top 100. I think he gets a % of their sales as well. It's crazy how he makes this much and still worries about college fees and doesn't live in an over the top house. Maybe Kyle was telling the truth when she said that was her perfect dream house and she liked its vibe because on that kind of money they could be living in an Adrienne-esque house.

Atlanta should have been split into two parts: The first 13 episodes, then a five-week hiatus (Superbowl, week 2, week 3, week 4, Oscars) and then continue with the rest of the season (again 13 episodes I think). Bravo could have just shown repeats on those five nights.

I think this solution would have been perfect.

I like the idea of that. I'd be interested to see how it would effect the ratings and hype. Personally, I think it may have killed the buzz a little...but then so has these breaks.

I don't think it would have killed the buzz, many shows do those midseason finales nowadays and when the second half of the season premieres, ratings go up again.

Anyway, I just watched the newest BH episode and that last scene with Ken and Lisa gave me anxiety, I don't know why but I really felt sorry for them, it looked like they were preparing to go to war not to a party. I also hate it when the season finale party isn't at a housewives' house but at a neutral place, again I don't know why. I really loved season 2&3 finales, they were both really good and at Lisa's home.

You could be correct, they may go up, personally I may lose interest and think some others may do the same, that's all. A pre-planned and promoted mid-season may be better than an unannounced then 5 week break though.

Regarding BH. I disagree slightly about the finales. I like the mutualness of it all. The only person who had the balls to confront the host in her own finale party was Faye. (props to her for that). I like that it's a level playing field this year. I actually hoped the finale would have been held at Kim's for once because she only, truly, has parties that her 'friends' attend. (i.e. cast mates she genuinely gets on with)

I prefer finale parties at the housewives houses like in the OC. Where was the white party this year? It looks like it was always the intention to do the chamber of commerce parties as the first and last parties of the season. This party is going to take the whole episode so its going to be good!

I found the press release about the BH reunion and it just gives a rundown on what will be happening in each episode

Also looking because I have no life here are the synopsis for the first two New York episodes



Everyone should check out this article as it gives some insight into how real housewives are filmed http://www.imbringingbloggingback.co...y-no-for-real/

I am enjoying the Real Housewives Of Melbourne, but with the exception of Gina and the blonde woman I don't really like the cast.
The one who flies to an island to shop for cheese is truly awful. The psychic is definitely one of the most annoying women to ever be on reality tv and the other two i'm not sure of yet.
I did find it funny that they thought it was truly awful of Gina to buy a nice piece of jewellery for the psychic ones housewarming, but Native American headgear is apparently the perfect gift.

@TamraBarney: EXCITING NEWS…RHOC season 9 air date will be announced REAL soon. #BRAVO #RHOC #season9 #originals

I can't wait!

Do you think that the OC will take BH place on Mondays? I was not a huge fan of the OC until the last season and I really got into it.
I enjoyed this weeks Atlanta. Miss Derek is so funny, his reaction to being called Sir cracked me up.
While this season hasn't been my favourite Atlanta season, it is still head and shoulders above the rest IMO as it blends drama and humour perfectly.

I wish that Porsha had just shut Peter down and told him that her marriage is none of his business... Interestingly she wasn't allowed to bring a +1 with her which makes me think the whole Kordell conversation was a producer set-up, if Lauren had been there with her then it would never have been discussed IMO.

I love Phaedra but I am so over her calling Kenya a whore all the time.

Agreed, even Atlanta on a "bad" week is miles better than the other franchises. I haven't had a chance to watch last nights ep yet, but I'm looking forward to it. They should be taping the Reunion soon as well Id imagine? I'm SO looking forward to this seasons reunion.

I was thinking the same about The OC. That it will take BH slot on Mon nights and I'm assuming NYC will stick with the Tuesday slot. I'm looking forward to The OC, I'm so glad Gretchen and Slade are gone, and looking forward to seeing the newbies in action.

Also thanks to who posted the preview for the BH reunion. It looks brilliant. I cant wait for it and NYC to start this week!

Really liked the Real Househusbands of the Atl last night.

Seriously what business is it of Gregg's and Peters? Get the hell outta here. Although, good for Gregg for finally stepping in for Porsha, well sort of, when Kenya and Peter started cross-examining her.

LOL at Miss Lawrence's impression of Gregg, that was the highlight of the show. I wish Marlo was on the trip - I think Nene would have rather hanged with that big ass snake though. And where is the divine Lexis?

Kudos to Kandi for standing up for Porsha when Peter and Kenya were going in on her. You can tell it threw Kenya off guard from the way she shut Kandi down by changing the conversation. Kenya clearly doesn't want any of Kandi, which is wise considering she's the only one who doesn't dislike her, that much anyway.

I'm not entirely convinced that Peter wanted to say those things or bring it up, it seemed very producer invoked. I think Peter looked very uncomfortable during the conversation, especially his facial expressions and the way he slouched right back into his chair...meanwhile Kenya was lapping it up.

It doesn't seem like Cynthia is coming back, she hinted largely in a magazine(?) interview that she was being replaced.

Phaedra was quite funny tonight, especially, her quip about Porsha doing the history exam.

I actually liked the break we had now. Mainly because this episode was a huge change in direction and pace compared to the rest of the season - which has relied heavily on outside influence. After this episode and the preview from next I think things are about to get very, very heated.
