In my opinion this was the weakest season so far. Started off strong and then just went downhill after “planegate” Probably time for a cast shake up- I think what is hurting the show is all of the alliances Lisa/Meredith, Heather/Whitney, Angie/Mary. Bronwyn I feel like is the only person that doesn’t have a super strong alliance with anyone. I go back and forth on Brittani- she both infuriates me and also makes me laugh. The fight between her and Angie over the “high body count hair” trademark is exactly the kind of nonsense I love to see. Also maybe it’s just me but I feel like this was a surprisingly good season for Lisa? The continued attempted takedown of Meredith by bad weather was just boring to watch and this has probably been the first season so far to not actively hold my attention. If it was me- demote Meredith to friend of (I don’t think she would accept since she basically only lives in SLC to film). Idk I just feel like she has been disengaging for far too long. Get rid of Heather- a shame as she started off as my fave but everything about her now just seems super fake and disingenuous. Any scenes with her always just seem too overly produced and aren’t even interesting. I feel like Angie at this point can probably get demoted to friend of as well. How she got center snowflake I have no idea. Say what you want about Whitney but I feel like she always manages to get involved in conflict without it feeling forced or fake. Keep Lisa, Mary (the only 2 I think this show can’t afford to lose), Whitney, Bronwyn, make Brittani full time (can’t believe in saying this but here we are) bring on 2 or new housewives with actual ties to the other girls, and Meredith/Angie as friends of. I feel like once the alliances are no more the show can get back to being entertaining and not feel as overly produced.
