Rumours about a Sheree return to RHOA!

http://www.realitytea.com/2015/07/09...es-of-atlanta/

RHONY reunion cast seating was:

Kristen > Heather > Carole > Bethenny - Andy - Ramona < Luann < Dorinda < Sonja

I'm surprised about Sonja's seating. She's been the most consistent talking-point for all of them all season. However, it could be an indication that producers have felt her story arc has rounded off and are letting her go. It might make sense - we know her fashion line was launched so that could be a positive place to leave off for her on the show.

I was thinking the same about Sonja Bumble. It might freshen up the show in terms of storyline (as they can't use her anymore) but it's not the right course of action, imo. I think Sonja should come back again. I went off her last season but I've adored her this season. "Where's Dorrrrrrrinda?" "I am an artist. I raise millions for LGBT. LGBT. I raise miiiiiiilions of dollars for LGBT, Miiiiilions of dollars" "John John Kennedy? Madonna? John John Kennedy? I party with John John Kennedy all the time" and my fave "I'm not being attacked, I'M ATTACKING YOU B*TCHES".

Ramona on the other hand is becoming a little stale. Her drama is always the same and just seems so put on sometimes. I loved her coming for Carole though. I love Ramona though so I could just be going through a funk with her.

The seating should have went:
Carole - Dorinda - Luann - Bethenny - Andy - Sonja - Ramona - Heather - Kristen

I hope Carole gets fired or demoted next season (if there is one). Although, I'd be open to them bringing everyone back again and starting filming soon. Striking while the iron is hot and all that. Straight out the bat (episode 3 maybe) send them on a trip and bring in thee Jill Zaaaaaaarin.

I agree, Ramona is a bit stale. Next season I hope they get rid of Carole, Kristen, Sonja and Ramona. Bethenny, Heather, Dorinda and Luann would be good with a newbie. I know Andy will never fire Ramona though

Getting rid of Sonja would loose the whole comic relief from NYC, sure the others have the odd funny moment but Sonja for me is the funniest by a country mile. Ramona adds less than Sonja.

The only two on NYC I wouldn't mind not seeing again would be Kristen and Carole. I'd keep the others and maybe add one newbie or just leave it at 6.

The seating arrangement doesn't reflect who will and who won't be back! See queen Brandi glanville.

The seating arrangements are always about who has brought the most to the season / who has had the most reaction from the public.

Just started S5 of NYC and all these new HWs is a bit much to take in all at once.

Why did Jill leave? Was she fired or was it her own choice?

Kristen hasn't done much this season but she's just sooooo understatedly beautiful and stylish. And there always room for some of that to divert your attention, especially in a season where you're subjected to the scarily unhealthy sight of Bethenny Frankel.

And now Cynthia Bailey has gone overboard with the facial fillers and turned all confrontational Kristen can fill the boring but naturally beautiful wife gap in the market.

I wish Kristens husband was featured more this season. Last season he didnt come across that well. I wonder if they decided not to focus on their home life so much this season.

I don't know whats up with RHOA but theyve delayed production 3x now and rumours are that all the HWs are back including Claudia. It seems like such a mess with the producers, filming was supposed to start first week of June.

Kim R has left rehab again.

And Kim Z and NeNe's spin off has been axed already.

I'd never seen any of these Real Housewives shows before until recently, when I decided to start watching the latest season of Beverly Hills, purely because I wanted to see what my childhood idol Kim Richards was like. Dear oh dear, what a sorry, sad state she's become! She clearly needs proper professional help. Sad to see her like that. As as child I saw her in so many films and tv shows and she was adorable and very talented as an actress. Is it the classic case of a former child star having no proper childhood and going off the rails? Her sister Kyle seems more grounded and level headed or is she? As I said I haven't seen the earlier seasons, only the one that's currently showing in the UK. Actually, does anyone know if there's anywhere online I can watch the first few seasons of Beverly Hills? They don't seem to be available to buy on DVD here in the UK and any region 1 US copies I've seen are so expensive. I like Lisa Rinna, I used to watch her in Melrose Place and Yolanda and Eileen seem nice enough. That Brandi is awful!! I've actually become addicted to this show but I know both Kim and Brandi won't be in the next season, will they? I certainly won't miss Brandi but I've been finding it fascinating yet sad to see Kim in it. What was she like in the earlier seasons? Was she in better health/spirits or was she off the rails and drunk and crazy or what?

Nene and Kim's show being axed has added more fuel to the fire that she is in fact returning to RHOA next season despite what she said to People Magazine. That quiz show that shes doing with Betty White is only 6 episodes.

Hi, there are others here more expert than I but, I've bought them on Amazon or iTunes in the past. I watch on UK time but tend to stick in this thread at US pace because I've been here so long. There is a UK pace thread too.

I've never managed to find the NY season 6 (I think? The second season Aviva did) and the NY ones don't seem to be shown in UK of late even though all the others are.

ps - I loved the Witch Mountain films and thought KR was so cute as a kid, can't bear her now.

Heather has quit NY

Here's a basic recap of Kim's story throughout the seasons -

Season 1 - Seen as an outsider by the whole group. She arrives late to events and parties, sometimes not even showing up. She has a bit of a rivalry with Taylor and we learn the general dynamic of Kim and Kyle's relationship. A big secret about Kim is revealed during a fight in a limo which shapes the course of her time on the show.

Season 2 - Disaster! The running theme becomes ''Where's Kim?'' as she continues to be absent. She introduces viewers to her new boyfriend who is described by one of the ladies as looking like ''a gay bulldog''. She gets into a fight with Brandi where she's accused of taking crystal meth. It becomes painfully obvious on-camera that she's got a problem... The season ends with her entering rehab.

Season 3 - It's all about rebuilding her life and getting back on track. Surprisingly she starts making friends with Brandi. It's Kim telling the Maloofs about things Brandi has said about them that kicks off the major storyline of the season. Her sobriety is called into question during a trip to Paris.

Season 4 - Generally a pretty good year for Kim. The focus turns to her training her dog Kingsley. Her friendship with Brandi gets stronger.

Season 5 - Kim's sobriety is once again called into question, spurning a big rivalry with Lisa Rinna and her own sister Kyle - leading to 2 physical altercations.

Granted, Kim does seem like a total mess reading all that - and she is. But the reason she's actually quite popular on the show is because she's kooky and has some funny moments. Plus, I think viewers are always rooting for her to do well.

Hmmmm was she fired do you think? Iv just finished the Turks and Caicos (whatever it's called) trip and LOVED it! NYC back to how it should be - stupid arguments over nothing and Ramona up to no good!
Absolutely love LuAnn now and to think - I used to HATE her!!!

With Bethenny reportedly being confirmed for season 8 and Heather going, with dorinda and Kristen also reportedly getting the axe, I can see all the veterans staying and two newbies coming in... I reckon Carole may just cling onto a full time role simply because andy loves her although she brings bugger all. I'd like to see her as a friend of, that'd work.



OC this week and I felt SO sorry for Vicki. What a disgusting selfish pig brianna is. Vicki isn't allowed to take her boyfriend for support at her own mothers funeral?! Brianna is a disgrace and so is her hillbilly bullying pig of a husband!! really angered me!
As for Shannon and David... Oh dear, it's really all coming out isn't it! Their problems are BIG. I know Shannon wants to do the 'right thing' but I can see another OC divorce in a year or two... Tamra is actually being bare able this season and Iv enjoyed seeing her become a grandma. Meghan is gorgeous to look at, but I can't warm to her as a person... Heather, is just still miss fancy pants!

Any more news on BH or NJ? They're my other two favs...

RHONY just got 1.51 million viewers for this week. That's the highest it's had for any non-finale/premiere episode since season 5. It seems like the show might not be dead after all.

Letting Heather leave would be a big mistake. Her personality is the strongest of the 4 newbies (Her, Carole, Heather, Dorinda) and she naturally annoys the other women. They need to ditch Carole. Pretty much no one, other than Andy, likes her. Kristen is nice but boring as hell. There is no appeal to her on the show anymore. Cynthia becoming 'less beautiful' or whatever on Atlanta has no effect on Kristen's position for various reasons. The main one being that they are completely different shows with different audiences.

Sonja was giving me life with some of her random comments the other night. Love her so much.

Luann I love but she's a major hypocrite, lecturing them about the f-word before then running off with a married man, honestly she has no leg to stand on.

As Sonja said Ramona is just green about what you do with a guy after you hook up with him.

I doubt Heather was fired. A lot of comments on the RHONY FB are saying that she's concentrating on her son and his health. Heather doesnt really need RHONY her business is going exceptionally well, her husbands business too. She has a beautiful family and with an unwell child all the added stress is just not necessary.

As annoying as she could be Heather was a good HW, her first season she wasn't afraid of Queen Ramona, she didnt put up with no bull. She's gonna be a loss to the series (if it does get renewed)

Has BH started filming yet?

Is her son that ill, I know he has the hearing issue but I thought it was a relatively minor problem, not something requiring round the clock care.

Yes her faux-Spanx are apparently doing well enough unfortunately. Remember last year she claimed they were copying her designs, I laughed my head off at that, then she tired to play the victim when Spanx hit back at her and wrote a whiny open letter to Sara Blakely. The cheek of it given she copied Sara to begin with.

I'm surprised Heather doesn't use the show to push her faux-Spanx more, like Bethanny gets value for Skinnygirl.

Jesus Christ can nobody be lighthearted anymore.... it. was. a. joke.

Though I still think there's nothing wrong with having someone whose very nice to look at on the show. Who doesn't have bulimia cheeks or look like they're one facelift away from having a beard. And also someone who can carry off the high class style these show profess to be about. I'm a very visual kinda guy... I get pleasure from things looking nice.

And actually I think Kristen is kinda pretty funny too when given the opportunity, she's just got no-one to bounce off this year. I'd prefer they'd keep her and add a friend of hers. Than add another from that Sonja/Ramona pool.

He was born with a condition which led to him needing a liver transplant and they have had to deal with the complications from that.

He also suffers from a chronic lung condition and has pretty bad food allergies I believe.

Oh that wasn't the impression I initally got from the show, although I didn't watch in Heather's first year on.
