I doubt the whole Kim leaving article. Radar started the article and then it circulated. On the same day Radar said Kyle was being fired and Kathy was being brought in. Not to mention, that Kathy had cut Kim off...then another article saying Kim was moving in with Kathy. If Kathy was to join RHOBH it would only be to save Kim's job. I can't see Kathy coming in when Kim, Kyle or both leave.

I'm liking RHONY. It's such an improvement over last season. It's a shame the ratings haven't improved much. The episodes quality are a little hit and miss though. The Atlantic City episode was the best episode they've had in years.

I'm loving Bethenny but she does grate on me sometimes. She loud foghorn voice is so irritating. She cries way too much too. Why was Heather crying at the table in the last episode? To look a victim?

They need to amp the drama up a little. We're 10 episodes in now. The cast is a little too big as well. I'm still not seeing the point of Kristen or Carole. Heather annoys me but at least she is doing something. Carole not backing Heather up or agreeing with her at dinner could mean things are about to change. Carole and Heather usually have each others back 100%.

I'm excited for OC! I hope it doesn't take forever to heat up like Lizzie claims though. I'm so happy that Jeana, Lynne, etc will all be making appearances. There doesn't seem to be a lot of buzz though.

Apparently, only Kenya, Nene, and Kandi are returning to Atlanta. I'm hoping they keep Cynthia around part time. Phaedra, Porsha and Claudia can go. I'm hoping Phaedra is out. I can't bear to watch another season of her. She's just not fun any longer. I live for a Sheree return. I'd love to see Kim return for a few appearances too (since she wont come back full time).

Yes I'm hearing that Kandi, Kenya and Nene are the only ones back too. I only want Cynthia part time as I love Peter, I find him hilarious. Can't wait to meet some new ATL women.

I'm really loving Dorinda in NY. Hope she's guaranteed a spot next year.

I might give OC a chance this time, I haven't watched it properly since Gretchen's fiance died, the older guy. That was a few seasons back

Damn I was hoping Claudia would be back. She's got a ton of hate online for going against Nene though and unlike Kenya doesn't have a major fanbase to fight her corner. Still praying for Marlo to join, she was at a wedding recently that Kandi attended, pics of them on instagram together.

I'll be glad to see Phaedra and Porsha gone.

Wow that's 5 seasons ago on OC!! I would suggest catching up on season 9 - IMO the best season of OC ever. One thing I love about OC is the great job they do at casting every time. No cast member has ever been a waste of space. And as long as Vicki and Tamra r there, there'll always be drama!

Never been into Atlanta... May try it if there's a revamp on the cards...

I love Dorinda. She's hysterical. I still laugh at her saying Sonja Morgan is like an urban myth on the Upper East Side . I wasn't so happy about her dig at Ramona about Mario on WWHL the other week though. I'm not even sure there will be another season though because ratings are dire, especially considering the hype around Bethenny returning. Apparently the Turks and Caicos trip is crazy though, so I hope ratings rebound. I think they go on that trip in a few episodes. At this point, they could ditch Carole & Kristen. Then one of Luann, Sonja or Ramona. I love Ramona but her "character" is becoming a little tired. Sonja and Bethenny have been my favourites this season though.

You should watch season 9 of OC. It's an awesome season.

I'm not surprised by Claudia not returning. She never had a storyline, outside fighting with Nene. She just came across thirsty. I say that and I like her. I wanted her on the show before she got casted. A Sheree return with 2 new wives would be great. I don't think 3 new wives will work that well. Marlo returning part time would be great. She'll never get full time, she's got too many violent convictions and Bravo wouldn't want the headache. I can't see them dropping Pheadra. I wish they would but that's a ballsy move which I don't think they're brave enough to make.

Just watched the new OC... And just remembered how much I LOVE Vicki and Shannon. Also, just how much I love that franchise. I don't know how but there is always guaranteed drama (ep 2 kicks off already!) ATM the new girl seems not very nice but il see. So good to see Lynne back though! Can't wait to see more old faces! As for brianna saying brooks is faking his cancer - she should be ashamed of herself. I feel so sorry for Vicki having such a disgusting daughter who through her under the bus as soon as she ran off with her hobo husband she knew all of two minutes.

NY - I have to laugh at just how shut out Kristen is. She is useless tbh and I don't blame Bethenny for ignoring her lol!!

Well can't say I'm shocked, she could have gotten herself such a catch of a guy, and still could if she ditches Peter's ass.

NYC
Filler episode before the trip it seemed. I'm very over Kristen she really is trying to make a name for herself.

I hope the Bethanny/Sonja thing isn't as big as it looks, I wish everyone would get off Sonja's back, they basically insinuated she had a drink problem at dinner which I don't think is cool.

Bethanny never seemed to have an issue with the trip she just wanted to leave early, but of course they made that molehill into a mountain.

The Peter thing is probably a ploy to get Cynthia her peach for season 8 - and if they add the women he kissed then even better for them. Cynthia will get her peach and can play victim and do some damage limitation after last season.

RHONY is such a non-event this season. Heather, Carole & Kristen could easily be fired. Luann hasn't really done much either, which is disappointing. Although, I love her interactions with the others.

Turks and Caicos will be 4 episodes long! It seems everyone has their fare share of fighting with each other. I'm glad because I was afraid it would end up everyone vs Bethenny or Sonja.

It's clear Kristen is out the door next season and she knows it. She doesn't fit it with the group, which she acknowledges in her blog. She's only one that hasn't been on WWHL, until last night when she was on with Heather and Joan Collins. It doesn't look good for her.

Bethenny said this was the last time we'll see her cry - thank god! Has anyone been checking Dorinda's twitter? It's more entertaining than the show. She's so bipolar on it and takes some pretty hard jibes at the cast. The reunion will be interesting. It's going to be a sh-- show. Dorinda will taking it hard for her Twitter remarks and her WWHL ones about Ramona. Interested to see how she will fare.

I hope it gets another season and the rest of this one is good. I hope they ditch Carole, Kristen and maybe Heather (because she can't film at home and the women are over her). Bring back Bethenny, Ramona, Sonja, Dorinda, Luann (either FT or PT), add a new woment that's a strong character and bring back Jill Zarin. I'd like to see Aviva back PT as well.

OC was good. Not great, but good. From the first 2 episodes, it seems they could have done with another new cast member. Loved seeing Jeana. Surprisingly, Shannon is annoying me a little. I know it will get better though. The ratings plummeted to 1.4 million though which is the lowest it's been for years.

Yeah I never know where Dorinda stands from twitter, as you said she'll get it at the reunion but its hilarious.

Last night along she said Kristen wasn't give a fair shot by the others girls, then goes on to say Kristen is getting a taste of her own medicine Maybe that daughter of her's runs the twitter lol

The consistent vibe I get is she doesn't like Heather though. I can't get a read about the others.

Am I the only one who doesn't care about Shannon and her marriage?

I also started watching RHONY and I'm on S3 and it's fantastic!

Oh my dear friend, the glory days!!! Jill and Ramona's incessant squabbling and psycho alex and Simon. TV gold.
The perfect NYC cast for me if season 8 came would be Ramona, Jill, LuAnn, Bethenny, dorinda, Sonja with Aviva and or Alex as part time. I'm looking forward to their trip though... Hope Heather gets it!!

OC - I fear Shannon is being given the bad edit this season which is crazy because she was SO popular in season 9 and I really like her. Personally I don't like the new girl. She seems snappy and a bit like Tamra... Which isn't good!

TMZ are reporting Brandi has been ditched from BH.

It was obvious Kim was a goner after her drunken arrest and she's pretty much Brandi's only friend on the show. So it be a bit hard to sell to the viewers that the others would even socialise with her now.

As for Orange County - I enjoyed the second episode far more than the first. Only because the women met up and interacted which is where most of the fun comes from. I found Shannon and David's marriage counselling to be really tedious however. We had an entire season of it last year so I hope this won't dominate again this year. The eulogy thing was weird (where the tombstones necessary?!). Not only that, I found the scene in which they line their daughters up so David could ask for their forgiveness to be the oddest thing I've seen on the Real Housewives' in a long time. The whole thing made me uncomfortable.

I'm really loving New York this season. Kristen finally gets a voice, even if it is a desperate ''Look at me! I'm relevant! I'm part of this group too! Please look at me!'' kind of voice. Then there's Blubbery Frankel who has cried so much that Ramona and Luann could almost recreate a scene from the final hour of Titanic! Anyway, has anyone noticed that Heather still hasn't had her own personal scene this season? All she's done is criticise Sonja and suffocate Bethenny!

If brandi has been fired then I'm done with the show.

What's to watch?
Lisa and her sex jokes?
Vile kyles poor me routine?
Eileens bland on bland lifestyle?
I don't think even a Camille return could bring me back.

Lisa rinna will be next seasons 'villan'

She can't film at her home so that pretty much rules out any family scenes and the other girls have the business storylines filled up. Whoever decided to hire her knowing she couldn't film at home should be given their pink slip. She's never had many solo scenes though. The only ones I can remember are her at the doctors with her son. It's a shame because she's the strongest of the 'new' cast members.


Brandi pretty much confirmed she's gone as well. Although, she's playing it off as her decision. It was a catch 22 because without Kim & Yo she doesn't fit in, but the show needs her drama. They need to bring someone controversial in. If she is indeed gone I think the producers might kick themselves during filming. LVP, Kyle, Eileen, Camille and Adrienne (if the latter 2 come back) are all too gun shy to get into fights again. Lisa Rinna wont be as forward this season because there isn't an obvious target (i.e. who the public will back her against). Looks like we'll be getting at least another 2 new housewives which is quite annoying. That's 8 new wives over 4 seasons (not to mention the PT wives). I'm not here for another Joyce & Carlton situation either.

It's already echoing season 4. I.e. the centre of the drama and all the storylines has left (S3 - Adrienne, Season 5 - Kim) which will lead to another lack of cohesion and a messy season.

Excellent. I find her horrendous to watch. I guess it just shows how viewers watch these shows for different reasons and enjoy different things about them. Everyone loves/hates different people!

Why is Heather not allowed film at home?


As for Brandi, I hate her but I like that she's a hate figure on the show, I'd rather her there with a friend or two than some faux fight between Kyle and Lisa to create some drama when it's likely totally choreographed. I'm all for her friend Jennifer Gimenez being more full time if it just means there is somewhere there for Brandi but there is still drama for her with the others.

I just worry it'll be all to dull without her and the fights will be something irrelevant like who invited who to a party.

Thank goodness, she brings a negative vibe to the show and her Jealousy and insecurity is not worthy of this RHO. I sense she is envious of the happily married housewives and her treatment of Joyce was not pleasant to watch. Ta ta Brandi.
