Come on, you've gotta be pretty devoid of empathy to not understand how sensitive a situation that is.

If her kids didn't know it's a revelation with huge emotional implications and lots of questions. That doesn't mean it's wrong or bad, but it's a massive discovery for a person particularly kids of a certain age. I mean if your mother told you the same tomorrow would you not find it a bombshell beyond bombshells? I'm an adult and I know I would so why should children in a such way that it's played out in the full view of the media.

To be honest I thought there was something wrong with Brandi for not getting that.. but it seems she's not the only one.

LOL Think we all reacted that way. Shame, without the wig and the warpaint she doesn't look like a tart, she looks a lot softer. ( Until she opens her mouth!)


Much, much, worse. One of the most uncomfortable franchises to watch.

Oh dear Adrienne. Been telling porky pies yet again?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...ex-issues.html

Not to sound like a kid in a playground but Adrienne started the war with Brandi first. I don't condone the way she retaliated but it is clear that Adrienne was the one going after Brandi to start with, getting her chef Bernie to release bits and pieces to the press about Brandi as a mother, trying to get her fired from the show. Did Adrienne stop for a second to think how her lies about Brandi would affect her children? I doubt it. Throughout all of this, Brandi is the only one telling the truth, Adrienne got others to do her dirty work for her, then steps back and says "Brandi started it". Then she hired a lawyer to stop Brandi revealing why she said what she said. Adrienne is highly manipulative IMO.

It's all out there on google but because of Adrienne's threat to sue, she cannot talk about it on Bravo.

So the ladies of BH are still in Paris. The focus of the episode is on Kim and her suspected drinking. I have liked Kim this season so far and I really hope she manages to stay on a clean path. I do have sympathy though that everytime she just happens to be running late or sleeps in then people will always have that suspicion in their heads. On the otherhand, her behaviour has been questionable up until this point on the trip.

So Kim hasn't shown up for the bus to take the girls to a cookery class. Kyle and Yolanda go to her hotel room to find her and both say in their talking heads that they are worried about what they could possibly find. Really? If you were that concerned you wouldn't let a camera crew follow you to film every single second. Anyway, she's fine and after what seems like a lifetime of waiting on the bus, Kim finally appears.

This episode actually doesn't show Lisa off in a positive light at all. She makes faux pas with Kim on the bus, upsets her and then takes people within the group off for little chats about Kim when she's standing just a few feet away. It's actually quite rude and embarrassing.

The ladies then venture off to the Eiffel Tower. Only in a show like this would the idea of 2 women having an argument at the top of the Eiffel Tower not be that much of a big deal. Lisa and Kyle discuss the change in their friendship. ''I feel you only make room for brandy,'' says Kyle. Wait, what?! Brandy? Lisa has a drink problem too?! What with Kim and Taylor's 4-glasses-of-wine-drink-problem then these ladies are really just drunken hags in designer clothes! ... Oh BRANDI? I get where Lisa is coming from actually. Kyle's comments during the last reunion weren't exactly complimentary so to mix that with her lack of backup for Lisa then I would probably feel the same.

How old is the Atlanta series on ITV2? The 4:3 format makes it looks like it was filmed in 1992 lol. It just looks really old.

I think about 5 or 6 years. I could be wrong though!

I'm totally on the same wavelength as Brumilad.
Completely agree about Bravo protecting her, just like Bethenny and we all know she got exposed for the shady bitch she is during her spin off. Then she threw the almighty strop and quit reality TV for good.

Lisa's quite similar. Don't get me wrong I've loved Lisa from Season 1 but the more I think back over the 3 Seasons there is something very shady about her. It's like she can give whatever wants but nothing can be said back. She's actually making me like Kyle! She's in her 50's/60's and is whining about someone not defending her, grow up. And its all a bit rich considering her and Yolanda were condemning Kyle & Camille for defending Adrienne. Such a hypocrite. Also, her and Kyle's problems started when Kyle became friends with Taylor and Lisa wasn't happy because it wasn't going her way and she didn't like Taylor, at that point. Another point Lisa is about to loose her third long time friend because of the show, It can't surely be everyone else's fault?

Also, Kyle/Lisa drama might just be to secure Kyle's place on the show next season.

Regarding the Taylor stories. I think Lisa was telling the editor (her friend) Taylor's drama knowing that she would publish a story and Adrienne had her number for that one. However I don't believe Adrienne was correct that Lisa was selling them or how she went about it either mind you. I think she was just feeding the information - a bit like Adrienne and Bernie. Adrienne gives Bernie the information knowing full well he'll plant a story. Speaking of Adrienne and the Chef, am I the only one thinking they're f*cking? It would explain why she's protective of him. Either that or she really doesn't wanna have to ever cook another chicken again.

Reunion Gossip. A surprisingly quiet Brandi and Kyle & Lisa at each others throats. No mention of Kim though.

What episode is the reunion show featured at the beginning of that video?

Lol that would explain it!!! I just thought maybe they were distantly related.

Ahhh found it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4AuF...A3_hC&index=27

That's a possibility too.

In the middle of watching the new episode and my god. Kim's "as long it's not quacking while he's doing the whacking" was just lol!

It premiered in 2008, so I guess it was shot about 8-9 months previously.

It's the only franchise in my opinion, that's got better each season. I didn't really enjoy the first one. But stick with it, in the unlikely event that ITV2 show more seasons.

Just watched this week BH. I think Lisa came of in a bad light this episode imo it all looked very cleverly edited. Its like they always have to have a villain in an episode then move onto the next one. I thought Lisa's words about Kim were only saying what we were all thinking she did seem out of it/high imo. Im glad she has stayed sober because she has come a long way.

I love Yolanda she has really come into her own over the past few episode and been a very slow burner.

The Reunion sounds like its not going to be as explosive as i thought it would be because i wanted Adrienne to face what she had started she is a total coward and saying 'oh i have moved on' you signed up for a reality show you know what reality shows do so stick it out.

Im looking forward to hearing what paul has to say cause i have read that Brandi and Paul are friends or on good terms so i wonder if paul is going to side with Adrienne or Brandi and what his side of the story is.

Ok, well I'm loving Yolanda now. She's really earning her spot as a housewive. I hope she's kept on for Season 4 as I feel she is just warming up. I loved when she told Lisa that conversation was already over when Lisa was stirring it which was even ruder considering Kim was at the other side of the table.

Lisa came of very catty at the end of the episode in her interview with Kyle. I don't get why the girls cry over her not wanting to be their friend, she surely can't be that mean when she isn't..

Loved Brandi this episode. Love her and Yolanda's love fest. Speaking of love fests Mauren's bromance is adorable, move over Lisa & Kyle. These two are hilarious together and you can see the genuine friendship. Mauricio was so cute buying Kim the bag. I hope they keep things on track.

Didn't miss Adrienne at all. Missed Taylor & Camille though.

Atlanta on ITV2. It got off to a slow start but it's growing on me fast. I can't wait until later seasons when the much loved Phaedra joins.

Nene is fabulous and hilarious but shady as hell to Kim and her singing career, as well as her friendship with Sheree. Deshawn is nice but not up to much. Loving Kim & Sheree and their friendship. The other one, I can't remember her name or anything she's really done so I couldn;t comment.

RHOA- If Sheree was told about Nene's singing "in confidence" why would she tell Kim? The only people that could have said anything were Deshawn and Lisa. Kim's performance for her music teacher may have been torture for her to do, but it was also torture to hear.

Kim's "I don't wear panties" line. Somehow, that sentence explained a lot. How would Sheree know what Dallas and Kim's friendship is like? When they met at the restaurant Kim introduced them both and Dallas acted like he barely knew Sheree.

Completely agree. Atlanta really just gets better and better. Watch out for the reunion which should be coming up, its all kinds of fabulous, and it was Nene's "Close your legs to married men" outburst at Kim that really set the show off Atlanta for me is the one I really look forward to each week.
The only thing I worry about is that they manage to keep Nene, shes doing so well for herself in Hollywood but I really hope she sticks with Housewives aswell, I cant imagine Atlanta without Nene! I think she will be back next season though. Also, I hope Kenya comes back for another season, shes crazy, but I think shes fab entertainment on the show and she plays the game well.

Im sad we are nearly at the end of Season 5 though (US Pace), but Im looking forward to the reunion, Im curious to see if Kim does show up.

Beverly Hills, well Im actually quite glad this season is coming to a close. Im so over the constant Adrienne drama and Im so pleased she has officially quit the show. I wont miss her at all next season. It annoys me she didnt show up for the reunion though, she obviously cant stand the fact she would have been called out on all of her shady BS behaviour. Shes such a coward, its a reality show. She should have been there to face it.

I have a feeling the reunion will still be full of tension though. If its true Lisa and Kyle got into it, Im glad. Its about time Kyle was called out for what she is, shes a total sh*t stirrer and plays every side going! I do think shes needed on the show though so I hope shes back next season.

Havent had a chance to catch up with this weeks Beverly Hills and Atlanta yet but ill post when I have. Also just found out theres a Reunion show for Vanderpump Rules Ill have to check that out aswell. I cant say I enjoyed the show much, some of it was ok, but theres just not a decent one among them, they are all total grasping famewhores! As for Stassi, I really hope to not see that girl again!

Tbh NeNe was honest about Kim's singing. I thought I saw Sheree smile when Kim told her she was going to text NeNe then never talk to her again. Sheree comes across to me as spiteful. I think she was blowing smoke up Kim's *** to spite NeNe.

I love the ones that are shown on ITV2 but I can never get into the ones shown on bio (can't remember which ones they are) I once left college early because the NY reunion looked really good and I didn't want to miss it.

I loved Camille in BH after disliking her the first series I saw her in. Not entirely sure if I like Atlanta at the minute.

My favourites out of all the ones I watch though are:
Cat (DC)
Jill (NY)
Tamra (OC)
Heather (OC)
Lisa (BH)
Kyle (BH)
Camille (BH)

I can't stand Vicki from OC now though. I liked her at first. Alexis has always pissed me off too.

A week into ITV2s Atlanta and I still dont care what happens to any of them..the only HW I havent got hooked on from the start..just dont like any of the ladies.

Didn't enjoy BH at all this week. It's rare that I dont like Lisa, but she totally went over the top this time. Give them to space, Lisa. You can save your mother henning for the morons you employ at Sur.

Yes Kim and Kyle have the most toxic relationship going, but IT'S NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU! I thought Yolande was, as usual, the voice of reason and while she doesn't bring any crazy I've warmed to her and wouldn't mind her being in the next series.

Things I loved about this episode: Ken and Mauricio pumping those machines around the streets of Paris, having a whale of a time. Hilarious, and nothing seemed forced.

And obviously, the no show of Adrienne and Trailer Trash.

I so dont miss those two. I hope Andy Cohen et all boot them out ( well I know Adrienne is going and Paul and Brandi have gotten close ) 'Bout time Paul found someone who appreciated him, I've always thought he had a great sense of fun without his harpie wife treating him like dirt.

But Lisa, stop acting like a mean girl in High School. You came across abysmally this week. Make up your tiff with Kyle, because sure as God made little green apples, she'll be backstabbing you again in the not so distant future,
Either that or shut up. Let it go. Kim wanted her sister ( why I have no idea) and you should have respected their boundaries.

As for Vancouver, I'd forgotten what had happened and was all kerfuddled. So I watched all 4 Episodes straight and think I now know who's who of the newbies It's an age thing!

Over in Atlanta Nene, quelle surprise. Nene has become the diva from hell. Dont they know that in lalaland everyone's tucked up in bed by 9pm so these hicks from Atlanta just didn't get it. Mind 2 hours late for a dinner is rude in anyone's book.
Loved Kandy's and Phaedra's asides, especially when they thought they were going to have to lug their stuff up the top to Nene's house.

And did I hear the Gods of Foreshadowing Doom rumbling when Kendra mentioned what a wonderful actress she was? "Ding Dong" Kendra's mouth runs away from truth normally ( although I think she's developed into television gold )

We shall see.

I've watched way too much HoWives in the last 24 hours, but at least I'm up to date.

Hi, I have been loving RHOBH shown on ITV 2, and previously loved RHONY too, but ITV seem to show a couple of seasons then stop. where are you all watching the other series on ?? I have only seen series 1 and 2 of these shows. I was just getting into the orange county one as well but again it has stopped. Im left with the Atlanta one which I really dont like at all .

Yes totally agree....cant take to it at all

Report on Lisa from a while back, when filming was taking place. This would explain why Brandi being caught having sex in Kyle's bathroom was never aired. Also, it provides support for Brumilads argument.

This past episode has made me question Lisa a lot and made me open my eyes to what she's done before. Has the episode aired where Faye calls her out on getting Brandi to do her dirty work? (It was in the promo before the season aired and I can't mind).

ITV2 viewers, Atlanta series 2 starts next Tuesday and after is that god awful Millionaire Matchmaker show. It looks like they'll be going through all the Atlanta's before we get anything else. *Prays for New Jersey* (I'd settle for Miami though since I haven't seen it).

I have been watching this and in spite of thinking I would not get into it, i have done. I agree with what you say. NeNe seems in yer face but if she feels anything she will say it, whereas Sheree is sly. NeNe's joke at Kim's expense was silly drunk joke, and Kim should have fronted her instead of listening to third hand versions and cutting NeNe off.

On a separate matter connected to the show, why do the women feel the need to set up foundations? If they have a cause close to their hearts why not raise money for an existing charity, there must be some. They seem to love having their own foundation. Hmm.
