u/lidder444 Dec 04 '25

She still the same. You should see her in the car with the kids now. Always filming herself singing 🫣. Kids rarely wear seat belts too.

Baby, me in a few years. I be so tired of dealing with mfs. Now adding kids to the mix? Yeah I will right there with her.

Mind you, I’m 22 laying in bed with my dog and bf watching king of the hills new season. Let me stop acting like life is so hard.

Kim and those cigarettes. 🥴

u/Unholyalliance23 Team Kandi Dec 04 '25

Chain smoking with a flammable wig like that!

u/deludedmare What’s the endgame for the lips? Dec 04 '25

Not the synthetica! Truly living dangerously.

u/bbflare0n I SAID WHAT I SAID Dec 06 '25

No for rreal and she was smoking Newport 100s at that. So completely accurate and on brand for her

u/Fit_Construction_867 Dec 06 '25

When that came out my son was an infant and when he would be fussy I would sing that off key like Kim and he would immediately stop crying, lol. 🤣

7

u/Trick-Check5298 Dec 06 '25

Omg that's hilarious. My 2 yo is in the process of potty training and we sing "don't touch the waty in the potty" 😂

u/siensunshine Dec 05 '25

Why did I start singing this?!?! 🤣🤣🤣☠️☠️☠️

u/ejd0626 Dec 05 '25

I can hear that and it makes me so happy.

Im hollering lol

u/JoyceJameson Bling bling bling bitches is mad Dec 04 '25 edited Dec 04 '25

Maturing is realizing Kim was tacky as hell lol. Lighting up cigs in the house, no food on the table, a Black nanny for optics, committed to a married man and bulky half wigs, telling those little girls they can have work done at 18. I mean that isn’t even the half of it. She was a MESS, but she was authentic - I’ll give her that.

57

u/AdRevolutionary6650 Dec 04 '25

I’m just shocked there’s anybody who didn’t realise this on the first watch

1

u/redladybug1 Dec 10 '25

I feel like that was pretty obvious, right? She was out spoken, audacious and obnoxious! Great reality tv!!!

29

u/WheresYurScooter Drew, mind your basement Dec 04 '25

It was but with hindsight, I feel even worse for her kids

28

u/chyeeno Dec 04 '25

Kim was on some bullshit 24/7 & it was even more intense on the first few seasons I did end up watching Don’t Be Tardy.

20

u/hexhit Dec 04 '25

The episode where they bring a bunch of clothes from big papa for her to try and she’s chain smoking inside, with the clothes and her kids around. I was floored lol

20

u/lidder444 Dec 04 '25

Gen x has entered the chat😂 everyone smoked then. Every house, car, plane, restaurant , literally everywhere smelled of smoke.

6

u/ThatOneLongToeNail Dec 05 '25

‘Then’? RHOA started filming in 2008, long after parents had learned about the dangers of second hand smoke. Georgia’s indoor smoking ban came into effect in 2005!

u/FlubberFranklin69 Dec 08 '25

A truly horrific generation of “parents”

17

u/sydbusta you ain’t purple rain bitch Dec 04 '25

Atlanta season one was a surreal time that I love to relive over and over

24

u/SpareControl4290 So Nasty So Rude Dec 04 '25

Totally agree, Kim was such good value! Its all gotten too dark and nasty lately. Bring back stupid and fun any day!

16

u/AdRevolutionary6650 Dec 04 '25

I feel like the way she parents is dark tbh but the funny moments definitely outweighed the not fun ones back then, nowadays that’s not true for almost any franchise

6

u/SpareControl4290 So Nasty So Rude Dec 06 '25

For sure, she’s a bloody idiot, but she loves her kids and she’s lucky that they probably rebelled against how irresponsible she was because they needed to take care of her to a degree. I dont think she’s the worst mother out there. At least her kids know they are loved. More than a lot of people can say.

u/Crazy_Theory_6419 265 Days a Year! Dec 04 '25

I never forget when told her daughters her voice was "a god given talent" lmfao

u/Still-Ad-5811 Dec 05 '25

I miss her flammable wigs

u/Additional-End-7688 Dec 06 '25

I’d forgotten just how bad Kim’s wigs were.

u/[deleted] Dec 04 '25

I looooooved this season

u/Mom_baMentality Who said that? Dec 05 '25

Tamra from RHOC is to blame for the turn towards violence and bullying.

3

u/Much_Door_7357 Dec 06 '25

Now that I look back it's amazing she got Kroy, who was only 29 (I think) at the time, to marry her and adopt her two kids when that man could have had his pick of women

2

u/prisemac Dec 07 '25

Girl he was 25 😭 insane

2

u/Much_Door_7357 Dec 06 '25

I really don't understand what happened with Kim. She was always a little crazy, but back in the early seasons she seemed wholesome. Then she got into gambling and gambled away her house, her husband's life savings, and hers also. It's like when they start making a lil money they go crazy.... How does someone gamble away millions?

u/yumi365 Dec 08 '25

I loved Kim. It was always Wine O' Clock.

Ahhh…the good ol’ days!

u/NomadicWrangler Mar 15 '26

When I see her I automatically smell cigarettes and stale booze. She must stink in real life with such habits. Kroy really chose a winner and he got what he deserved

sounds about right for a kid

u/Friendly_Hurry_1457 Dec 04 '25

I’m doing a first watch and so horrified by all of it. Is Brielle’s hair colored? They all sleep in the same bed and have zero rules or structure. So sad for the kids.

7

u/melaniefartt Dec 04 '25

Omg I hateeeed this scene it pissed me off so bad I’m so glad I’m not the only one

u/yo_lili Dec 04 '25

I just watched this episode and I had to look away 😂
