I don’t mean to keep picking on Emily, I don’t. I’m actually sick of talking about her. I’m sick of the woman altogether. Sick of her man voice, sick of looking at her plastic ozempic face, sick of her admitting she’s a bad mom so everyone reassures her she’s not (she is) and last but not least, sick of the pleated mini skirts. Sick of all of it.
This scene with her and Annabelle doing whatever they’re doing and AGAIN blaming Luke’s disorder that they’re not close, and she doesn’t spend time with her, to deflect from her laziness and disconnection to her family.
Annabelle knows she’s full of shit and putting on an act. She can’t even look up at her. The only response she can muster up is telling she’s not good with sappy convos and does the heart sign with her fingers.
Is it too early to preorder her book about what a lazy fake phony her mom was whilst pretending to be Mother of the Year for the cameras??
Blghhh I’m over her! There’s chatter of a NYC-style reboot for the OC, keeping a few OG’s (probably not Vicki) and replacing with a younger cast. I am here for that, and I am here for giving Emily (and her sidekick) the boot!
******
This kid that Jenn adopted is a handful and I foresee it getting worse. He gives zero fucks. She’s not equipped for this.
Does anyone think Gina and her ex are a little too cozy? Is it normal for two exes and their new partners to all go out together with the kids?
And what’s with Gina suddenly thinking she’s this super smart financial guru giving Matt and Brit all of this financial planning advice? Girl take a seat. She’s so proud she talked to a lawyer about a prenup and now thinks she’s Warren Buffet.
I think she’s trying to make Brit a Housewife, which probably means they’d keep Gina if there’s a reboot.
OMG, sorry I have to say this. Matt is so CUTE!!
Shannon talking to a dog psychic was strange. Shannon is really buying that she knows what Archie is thinking? Please.
Awww RIP Archie.
******
Tamra Jenn and Carmella attend a floating tiki bar.
The convo takes a turn to her obstacles with Vicki. She’s not invited to the sky top finale event, but plans on coming anyway to confront her.
She like Dolores can’t say ‘kumbaya’ either. She says koo-baya. Dolo on Jersey said ‘gumbaya.’ What is wrong with these women? They’re bad at expressions and pronounciations of words. Constantly.
******
Heather’s mom really does think she’s the main event.
Heather immediately scolds her for not reaching out to her grandkids like she thinks she should be. She dismisses that with they have phones too.
She’s kinda right.
I’m sure she has a certain awkwardness with Ace. She’s in her 80’s. There was no switching sexes in her day, so I can see her not being able to navigate that. I think a Gen X or young boomer grandparent might be able to handle that. Not an older boomer or silent. No way.
I feel like Heather is trying to pick a fight for the cameras, with her 80-something year-old mom and I’m not down with that.
Let’s face it. Heather is a lot LIKE her mom but doesn’t want to admit it. This whole sensitive and emotional schtick, is just that, a schtick. I have more sensitivity in my pinky that she has. Her own is mom is calling bullshit.
Her mom says that she cannot laugh at herself at all. She doesn’t say this, but it kind of goes along with it – she also has NO sense of humor.
Heather blames it on being ‘emotional.’ (I wish she’d stop with this shit. I hope you’re not buying it.) No Heather, one has NOTHING, NOTH- ING to do with the other. Having zilch sense of humor has nothing to do with being sensitive.
Like is Heather okay? She sounds like a fucking nincompoop weirdo picking a fight with her mom like this with her elderly mom for the cameras, not to mention lying about her entire personality.
They NEED to get rid of Heather in the reboot too. I’ll accept her as a ‘friend.’ Although not even sure whose friend she would be. That’s her other whiny thing, that she doesn’t have any of the ladies she’s close with.
Yeah Heather because no one can stand your dumb pretentious ass.
I would actually call her ‘insensitive’ to be honest. Remember her comment about Emily when she was still chunky and melting down at that fashion show that her dress was a particular size?
Heather is like ‘she can suck it, that dress was even tight on her.’ I guess she means she’s only sensitive when it comes to her OWN feelings and what is said to and about HER. A truly sensitive person wouldn’t have said that to the world knowing how ‘sensitive’ Emily was about her body.
I’m so ready to be done with this fucking poser who changes her personality every other fucking year.
******
Vicki prepares for the 20 year anniversary event. A lot of the Housewives past are going to be in attendance even some of the one or two seasoners that we’ve mostly forgotten about.
Vicki is upset about some of the old lady comments made by Carmella, which were by the way 100% in retaliation for the things that SHE said first.
People like Vicki can dish it out but CANNOT take it. You called her a shitty mom multiple times but you wanna sit here with your lip on your lap because she called you Betty White. It’s ridiculous. Actually it was an insult to Betty White.
My first Fashion Police moment, what’s with Vicki and all the leather constantly? And what the hell is Gina wearing? And can she stop fucking caressing her fake hair for five seconds??
******
Carmella’s ex is, or looks a lot older than I expected.
Jenn and Ryan chat about Dominic. It seems her ex does not care one way or the other about this kid. He doesn’t even care about his biological kids, why would he care about this adopted one?
I don’t get why Jenn freaks out when Ryan suggests he see a therapist. How is that way too much on her plate? Calling a therapist is too much on her plate for a woman that doesn’t even have a fucking job? Okay Jenn. Good luck.
******
They go to this dive bar as promised, and of course we still order espresso martini’s like any normal person would in a dive bar.
I curse the day Heather discovered these. I remember there was a scene when she first started ordering them, she didn’t even know wtf was in them.
“What’s in your espresso martinis?” Uhh the same thing EVERYONE puts in them – coffee,vodka, Kahula and simple syrup. Now they all drink them non-stop.
So they wanna fix Shannon up with a guy from this not-so-bougie establishment?
Have they met Shannon? She went off on that guy she met on that matchmaking show because he said he doesn’t like vegetables. I’m not judging her thinking that’s stupid, because it is. I’m just saying, her man is NOT here drinking a Coors Light and playing pool.
She does get a phone number at the second place, which seemed a little better. He was kinda cute.
******
Heather’s going to be playing her pretend ‘I’m so sensitive’ card at the party I can see. Still whining about being left out of a stupid selfie.
I will say though, I can see Tamra doing that on purpose.
Carmella professes to tell Vicki what the hell is what.
Jeana Keough is with us, and looks like she has had some work done. I ll have to look up how she’s doing with her tongue cancer diagnosis and struggles.
I’m not sure what Jo did to her face, but it doesn’t look good. Looks like too much filler.
We have one-seasoners Peggy and Elizabeth. The latter seems to be dying to make a comeback. Lynne Curtin, Lizzy and the list goes on and on. And lots of flashbacks.
Flashbacks we’re getting whether we want them or not.
Gina brings Brit who seems to be auditioning constantly. I feel like she’s too nice and ‘normal’ to be a Housewife honestly.
Teddi of course is here, who is rumored to be part of the reboot.
I laughed when Emily arrived with Carmella. If she was still chunky there is NO WAY she would be caught dead walking with Carmella. And she would have been so cunty towards her like she was with thin and fit Katie and Jenn, because she was mad she was fat. I’m sorry but I’m not sorry. I’m not sugarcoating.
Vicki believe it or not, seems half-nervous about interacting with Carmella. I’m taking it to mean she’s embarrassed by her behavior and knows Carmella wants to hold her accountable.
They’re all admiring each other’s tops. Shannon arrives and tried a little too hard to make cleavage out of her small-ish boobs that have lost their perkiness a long time ago.
I’m really surprised she’s never gotten a little help in that department.
The look is just NOT good, especially from a side angle.
Emily grills Vicki on Carmella’s arrival.
Vicki does NOT like to hear about anything she does wrong. Most people don’t love it, but normal people can handle it. Vicki starts going off the rails yelling that she doesn’t care. She doesn’t ‘trust’ Carmella?? Why? because she thought she embellished her job? I kind of thought that too in the beginning, but then when they started showing some of her work, she’s much more than a typical ‘flipper.’
Like Teddi said, sounds like Vicki does care.
With Vicki and her pattern of being mean to the new girls, it just boils down to her being mad that they’re younger and cuter. I would say she needs to work on that, but it’s entirely too late.
I don’t think she’ll be back next season. Seems like they kind of threw her a bone and brought her back as a 20 year fun thing, but she’s just so bitter and not at all entertaining.
Carmella who is drinking something other than vodka and club soda for a change, has a chat with Vicki
Vicki does that thing where she goes so hard to claim she’s not uncomfortable, that you can definitely tell that she’s uncomfortable. It’s kind of funny seeing her all anxious.
Vicki claims they’ve moved forward and she’s not still talking about her which is of course a lie.
I don’t know why everyone feels the need to join them right away. This should be between the two of them. Carmella can hold her own.
She clearly has Vicki all worked up because she knows she’s been being a total dick for no reason. Let her deal with this.
Heather calls Vicki out for just shit talking Carmella a few nights ago.
They agree to be happy just disliking each other basically. Vicki walks away with her tail kind of between her legs.
That was the best scene of the season, I’d even say.
Jenn wants to know if Tamra is genuine in attempting to rekindle their friendship. Of course it is Jenn! If there’s one thing about Tamra ‘Judge’ it’s her sweetness, generosity and genuineness.
So what does this convo bring up? Well of course this fucking selfie in Tokyo that made Heather feel left out.
Why couldn’t Tamra just say I get it just to move on?? You don’t have to mean it. She says shit she doesn’t mean all the time. Ya know like the crap she’s feeding Jenn about wanting to be buds again.
My GOD Heather SHUT UP! Just shut up.
Gina shares seeing a lawyer about a prenup. She now feels “a lot betterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.”
Insert 2005 high school Gina voiiiiicccccce. She needs to lose that cadence. Especially since she’s a pretend Realtor. It’s so unprofessional and juvenile. How can Travis stand that??
They ask her about a wedding date and is getting encouraged to have a big celebration. She’s totally trying to get Bravo to foot the bill.
Gina bitches at Heather for her comments that Gina might be overspending when he ‘Real Estate gig’ (aka Housewife gig) could end at any second. She again reassures us she’s very smart with her money. And we still do not care.
I don’t know why Heather goes so off the rails claiming it wasn’t her that said it when it definitely WAS her that said it. The others were chiming in too, but she definitely made some comparison to actors who overspend when they land a role.
Her making an acting reference is funny.
She admits she said that, but didn’t think that was rude at all. But it IS rude to not be included in a selfie.
Gina points out and valid point, that Heather should mind her fucking business because she has NO CLUE what it’s like to be single and taking care of three little kids, which is where she was at after Matt’s DV arrest, which subsequently caused him to lose his job. She has no rebuttal for that.
She knows that’s true and her comments were overstepping, but she can’t admit that. Instead she claims she’s ‘worked hard and Gina should respect HER.’
Mmkay Heather. Just say you shouldn’t have said it. She’s being such a hypocrite because she’s not validating Gina’s feelings like she expected to be done to her.
Heather claims her annoyance is due to the fact that Tamra’s comments were worse. They flash on what Tamra said which wasn’t THAT bad. It was all just a thing because Gina was acting NUTS, shopping in that second-hand designer store.
Thank God Shannon took that bra off. She must’ve gone into the bathroom and under those horrible lights how weird her boobs looked.
That’s a wrap on that!
Tamra managed to accomplish what she wanted to last season – took her a year but she did it.
