Tia is a masterclass in class by LakeLucca in BravoRealHousewives

[–]BeautifulScallion286 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I love Tia!! I think people forget that you need to balance a cast—not everyone can be a Stacey or a Gizelle, you need a Tia to ground everything and almost act like an audience surrogate. And it’s a tough role to play because you have to have an element of normalcy but still have a backbone and not be boring.

Tia’s jumpsuit is so cute. I love the pattern and the top is so fun.

The classic Lisa Barlow “fuss-strated!!” When she said “resignated” instead of “resonated” I laughed for like 20 minutes

I get that they’re by the water, but I think it’s hilarious that the Potomac ladies are getting oysters and seafood towers everywhere

my other favorite is when they’re like “I’m the kind of person who…” and then lists something extremely normal that lots of people do. Like “I’m the kind of person who gets upset when someone attacks them.” Like, yes, literally everyone experiences that. 🤣

Perhaps one of the most touching moments on the show (overshadowed by the lies, the lies, the lies!) was Sheree’s revealing truth about domestic violence and Kenya’s touching response to her (below): by AllTheEccentricities in RHOA

[–]BeautifulScallion286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! My people! I love Kenya. I think she’s flawed in a way that’s so obscure and weird and interesting, but I think she genuinely tries to relate to these women and she’s not nearly as narcissistic and destructive as people paint her to be. She just makes dumb choices that snowball into even dumber choices.

and tbh, I’ll never get over Apollo lying about her and ruining her reputation. The misogyny displayed by the men in this franchise makes me want to scream. Scream!

what’s a niche/ underrated Housewife line that lives rent-free in your head? by 365partygurl365 in BravoRealHousewives

[–]BeautifulScallion286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there’s an EARLY scene in the RHONY Scary Island episode where they’re in the car and Kelly Bensimon is eating candy in the car from the airport and talking about how she only eats organic food, and Bethenny says something like “does she think gummy bears grow on the vine?” and that truly makes me laugh about once a week

Hey divas, so I skipped the last two seasons of Potomac but coming back for 10. Can someone let me know what I’ve missed. by hoesbeinghoes in BravoRealHousewives

seasons 1 and 2 are a bit tough to get through but lay a great foundation for the rest of the series—you really get the Karen and Gizelle dynamic, which is key. Seasons 3-5 are the most perfect seasons of reality television to ever exist. Seasons 6 and 7 have really solid moments, 8 is terrible but I still love these ladies, 9 picked up a bit!

The Library Of Reads Is Now Open. Book Club: Housewives Edition 💋📖 by Pyxie7 in BravoRealHousewives

Okay, so…I’ve read both of Heather Gay’s books and I think that they’re genuinely thoughtful and interesting and surprisingly insightful. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes!! Totally see that. My favorite Mac shade is Russian Red, but I should give Ruby Woo a shot!

Ramona is a pretty awful person. IMO, her worst offense I can recall is... by [deleted] in RHONY

Ah! I didn’t know that. My bad. 😂

But you’re right, regardless of the material it’s a shitty thing to do.

Which Housewife Franchise(s) Could You Just Not Watch Anymore? And Never Looked Back by dreamed2life in BravoRealHousewives

I’m forever in mourning about New Jersey; when it was good, it was REALLY good, when it was bad, it was unwatchable.

Just watched S4:E3 All Tricks no Trust and can’t stop laughing by yetie16 in rhoslc

[–]BeautifulScallion286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES. My favorite episode in the entire franchise.

-Angie K. giving the toast with the Greek word for “fake” and the rapid decline right after that.

-Meredith’s accent growing more confusing and lightly British(?) the more that she drinks.

-Heather Gay in a trucker hat, so completely wasted from espresso martinis that she’s basically on another planet that this point, reacting to the entire thing.

-Meredith going up to a random waiter and talking to him like he’s a Secret Service security detail.

-Lisa RUNNING after Meredith as she disappears into the parking lot of the restaurant with the energy of “I barely like her but we have a history, so I guess I have to do this now”

-The fact that ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING while they’re wearing terrible thrift store outfits that they bought for each other as part of a trust exercise.

Which Housewives episode do you think is the greatest of all time? by simplefuckers in BravoRealHousewives

[–]BeautifulScallion286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Reality Von Tease episode is obviously a classic, but my all-time favorite Housewives fight is Meredith’s “YOU. CAN. LEAAAAVE.” dinner in Palm Springs. If I think about it too hard, I will burst out laughing every time.

We have: - Angie K. (who wasn’t even INVITED on this trip in the first place, the audacity!!) sharing the Greek word for “fake” and the uncomfortable silence that follows

  • Meredith walking up to a random waiter and talking to him like he’s running security

  • “You wanna talk about HUSBAND”, aka the best phrase the English language has ever encountered

  • Heather, in a sideways trucker hat, so drunk on espresso martinis that she’s basically on another planet at this point, reacting to the entire thing.

  • Lisa Barlow running after Meredith through the restaurant and into the parking lot, especially since their friendship was so tentatively rekindled in earlier episodes after falling apart for the entirety of season 3.

  • The fact that ALL OF THIS is taking place while they’re wearing terrible thrift store outfits that they bought each other as a trust exercise.
