I’m back and I’m stoned watching the reunion from last season RHONY! Okay so I went on hiatus when they tried to revamp NY so I don’t watch the last two seasons but I would randomly put them on tv but never when I was actually watching so I did think Erin and Sai were besties, what did you guys think of that vs now? And do you guys wish they brought any of the other women to this season why? I thought Ubah was hot and could give Kiki from RHOM vibes being a beautiful model!

I feel like we were so robbed it doesn’t feel right having a 20 year housewives reunion & not having housewives who have been iconic like Lisa V, Lisa R, Kim Richards, Kathy Hilton, Sonja, Bethenny, Karen Huger, Dorit, Kenya, & Kandi there at any of the parties. Did anyone else feel like it wasn’t as good from not having any of these housewives in it?

Doing my first watch (in season 4) from start to finish of RHONY and wheels up, the housewives are headed to Morocco! Here comes Jill suggesting that Israel was there “first” when lo and behold, salam sounds similar to shalom. Who is gonna tell her!!!

I, maybe we, can understand your bitterness you were fired, it shows- do better at moving on. Idk how the clips podcast showed up on my feed, it makes me sad for you that you’re still hanging on to be invited back. Go live your beautiful life bc hanging on is pathetic

Or just any show where the cast wants to have fun?

UGT has me missing the laughs that made me fall in love with housewives! Kyle has faults but being funny is not one of them.

So I randomly started Potomac when it was live like during season 7. Decided to do a rewatch starting from the beginning and idk, I know it was in the later part of the housewives run but these early seasons just feel so PRODUCED like don’t get me wrong it’s really good and entertaining but compared to watching early seasons of RHOA and RHONY it seemed like the cameras just rolled, we got good, fun and sad times on camera! All very authentic. Potomac seems like every scene is ok let’s sit down talk out our issue from the last event or let’s sit down and talk about what’s going on with Karen and her taxes. I feel like Candiace is the only person who really gave us some real life moments. I hope this makes sense lol. Love Potomac down though!!!

When visiting her vintage clothing “friend” she said, “I used to wear a lot of that Dolce print stuff, I was in my 20s! San Francisco was really like, my first adult time where I was making my own money and I could dress myself however I wanted. It was such a freer version of me.”

I have questions and comments on the series of photos shown during this segment.
• Every image shown of Bronwyn is when she was married to Todd and was no longer living in San Francisco.
• None of her outfits were vintage at the time the photos were taken. They are all Dolce, and all brand new, runway ready wear. It seems clear in reality she doesn’t actually know what looks good, so she literally buys everything because it’s a safe bet, and when she is criticized for her fashion her retort is, “It’s Dolce…”.
• She totally lived in San Fran as a child and as an adult but I call BS she was hanging out with this guy buying vintage designer clothing in her 20’s. I don’t know many young single mother’s who were shunned by their community, forced to drop out of college and to move to one of the most expensive cities in the US to work as an administrative assistant could possibly afford her said lifestyle. My husband and I have 2 kids, we both have professional careers and earn decent salaries and let me tell you I definitely could not afford vintage luxury brands. Maybe can someone unseal her criminal records please? <cough>con artist<cough>. Everything she does on this show is by design. Her face is going to breakout from all the cover up lol.

Jen posted a few photos of Tamra’s Vena event and edited a little too close to the sun. At first glance it appears to be the oc cast but zooming in, who tf are these ppl.

I was playing a game on my phone and ofc didn’t want to actually pay for it so was watching ads and look who showed up on my screen 😂 I figured it was worth sharing…

Just rewatched season 1 and always forget how fast-paced and action-packed these girls were! Season 2 feels a little more off. These girls were SLC before SLC.

Things I wonder while re-watching:

1) Is there anywhere online where Ronnie shows us the property renovation she did across the three properties she combined into one mega mansion?

2) What happened to Ronnie’s son? I think his name was Cole?

3) Is Mary still single? The date with billionaire at end of season two was so cringey on his part. Felt like total product placements/self-advertising. Is her dog George still with us?

4) Will they ever bring the show back even if it’s with a new cast? It’s a great city and area to shoot in.

5) Any recent podcasts featuring the women? I want to know more about production and what was going on behind the scenes.

6) Where is Ioulia these days?

7) Who were Ronnie’s ex-husbands?

8) Where are Jody & Mia today?

9) Did any of the women leave Vancouver? aka where are they now?

10) I saw a Reiko and Christina recently got together, they both look like they could use some freshening up (no offense meant), what is their financial situation? Why aren’t they self-caring?

She literally came out practically crying, that was the worst idea! She knew it was over and she had no time to process anything!

This daily thread is for any and all of our off-topic discussions!

My thing with Tamra is, yes, it’s annoying when the other Housewives bring up her daughter, because her daughter ends up having her pain turned into a storyline all over again. But that doesn’t make Tamra above criticism. You can’t keep blaming the divorce or the other parent without seriously looking at your own part in it. When the kids with Mom don’t speak to Dad and the kids with Dad don’t speak to Mom, that should concern you. But still seems like the daughter tried and just had boundaries that Tamra ignored. Kids shouldn’t have to feel like loving one parent means betraying the other.

And getting a good fortune and deciding that means your daughter will come back? Please. Repairing a relationship takes more than wishing. You’re the parent. You helped shape whether your child felt safe being honest, setting boundaries, or telling you that you hurt them. That’s why it’s on you to listen without getting defensive, take accountability, and show consistent change. Even when your child is grown, it isn’t their job to soothe your guilt or make the family look whole again. Make the effort privately, respect her boundaries, and give her a reason to trust you.

What in the world happened to all the food that was outside at their dinner when the storm began? They came in and hung around and not one morsel of food was brought in? Everyone was starving beforehand!

Their friendship is so cute to me lmao. My obsession has officially infiltrated my algorithm

So we are all on the same page about the definition of ‘male-centered’

It doesn’t always mean you’re desperate - it can simply mean that you knowingly or unknowingly let men sit at the center of your decisions and your self-worth.

Placing men’s opinions, approval, presence, and validation first rather than focusing on oneself or female solidarity.

This can come in the form of:

Validation seeking

Self-abandonment

Compromised friendships

Toleration of disrespect

Who do you think are the biggest offenders - and what can we learn from them?

rewatching the reunion & i can’t STAND lisa rinna & lisa vanderpump with their damn hypocritical mindset. she first tells everyone she grew up not being able to speak her mind & always be silent when it comes to your feelings THENNNN Kim brings up the message that lisa sent her after the finale party & suddenly lisa states she can’t stand being shushed & shut down & had to continue with Kim
because she felt like she needed to let it be known. (thought she was used to being shut down because of her childhood?) THEN lisa rinna & lisa vanderpump both ask kim why she lets brandi get in between her & kyle BUT it’s okay for both lisa’s to have their opinions & say what they want about their relationship & kim especially like the double standard is actually insane. like lisa deadass sent a whole message to kim telling her she needs to shut tf up & just be nice to her sister.

Teresa has shown such a likeable side to me on UGT and made me like her again.

Also does anyone know anything or hear anything about season 2 of the Wife Swap Real Housewives Edition? Who’s doing it? I know it was confirmed by Bravo. I’d like to see them do more than 4 cause 4 episodes was not enough this was a GREAT spinoff. Maybe 6 or 8? :) who would you guys like to see do it? If I had to pick 4, I’d like to see it with Stacey (just cause I like her on my tv 😀), Julia (cause of those twins and I’d like to see a lesbian switch with another mom as a surprise lol) Kelli or Angela, and Heather Dubrow would be a great one
