Bravo Thread 3/25

[eb777888]

Anyone watch RHOP?

That finale! Yikes! They saved all the drama for the end. Fucking Deborah.

Candiace and Robyn are out.

Anyone sticking with VPR? Or watching The Valley?

[fivechickens]

Deborah sucks. But fuck Wendy for condescendingly saying ‘are these the people you associate with’ after Ashley just said she didn't know she did that. Does Ashely control her friends? No just like Wendy doesn’t control her mom. And Ashley is allowed to invite her friends to a party. I don’t even think Ashley knew it happened. I wish Wendy left with Candace and Robyn.

Oh, I missed that!!! I liked Wendy fine her first couple of seasons but I really disliked her this season! I'm starting to see what people have been saying about her. 

[eb777888]

And I'm holding on to the hope of Wendy leaving this season. I'd rather her go before Candiace and Robyn. It'll be interesting to see Giselle without Robyn.

[eb777888]

Anyone watch Top Chef??? I'm super happy with who went home.

[dancingnancy]

RHOP: this went from being my favorite franchise to being my least favorite. They need to clean house. These women just don’t like each other and their significant others want no part of it. Keep Karen and Giselle and get all new people.

VPR: hate watching at this point. I need to keep reminding myself this was filmed 4 months after Scandoval.

The Valley: I said I wouldn’t watch but did and kind of enjoyed it in a train wreck-y way.

TC: I have always been a Kristen fan and was psyched when they announced her, but if she’s gonna try to fill Padma’s shoes her “please pack your knives and go” needs some work.

[Jalapeñomel]

The Valley is terrible. I can’t imagine people wanting to watch these folks talking about babies and their marriage problems.

Rumor has it that this is the last season of VPR, which isn’t surprising.

Love Top Chef, and I’m interested to see Wisconsin play out.

I agree! I know Giselle is a very polarizing character but the dynamic between her and Karen is so entertaining.

ETA: I wonder how Karen’s DUI will be dealt with. Sharon is still on the RHOC after her’s so it should not effect Karen being on the show but….well you know.

Dup

[eb777888]

I was listening to a Bravo podcast today (She Speaks Bravo) and Emily and Kendrick said that they're filming RHOC and Jon Jansen is with Alexis Bellino and they are cast members now. Oh, and Jon is suing Shannon for like $90K he loaned her for plastic surgery. I don't recall if Shannon is filming this season or has been let go?

I CAN NOT if Karen isn't part of RHOP.

I love Kristen as the TC host. Oddly enough, she was the first person who came to mind when I read Padma was leaving the show. She'll never be Padma and she shouldn't try to be so I'm not comparing the two. I'm rooting for Kristen.

Shannon is still on. Alexis and John started dating and then she was asked to come on as a friend of. And yes he’s suing - I saw for $75k. Shannon and Alexis were never on at the same time and have never been friends but, still, MESSY.

I like Kristen! She already has more inflection on her voice than Padma ever did (Padma grew on me…I despised her voice at first). 🤣

Shannon is filming this season. 

[notsopicky]

TC: LOVE Kristin and super happy with the axed chef.

RH: Candiace (confirmed) and Robyn (rumor) are being let go from RHOP.

Vander + Valley: both trainwrecks, much of it unwatchable. Will always love Below Deck (LOVE KERRY). Summer House needs a recast, although I'm loving Ciara & West together.

I've given up on most of the RH franchises and only watch the reunion (Jersey, Miami, Atlanta, BH, SLC); I can't take the screaming at/over each other anymore, and in the case of NJ & MIA, I cannot watch Teresa & Alexia (I swear, in some alternate universe, they are the same person). Potomac, NYC & OC seem to have survived, lol.

Bravo-adjacent: I semi-binged Traitors yesterday (Season 1 with lots of FFing) and the reunion of Season 2. That show is SOOOOOOO SLOOOOOOOOOOOW I cannot watch full episodes (I realized after the reunion of Season 1 that I didn't need to watch the episodes of Season 2). Please let this phenomenon not be the future of reality competition shows.

[klee23]

I begrudgingly watched the valley and I think I'll give it a few more episodes. On one hand, the cast (especially Jax) are trying to make something happen- like harping on Kristen abput having a baby. Jax really doesn't care that much... unless rumors are true that J&K kept hookimg up all these years and that will get shut down

The flip side of that is it is similar to early VPR where almost everyone is awful and they are all doing horrible things to each other. Jesse may possibly be worse than Jax. Brittany is still excusing his poor behavior. Child star Danny seems too shiny and/or just smelled a fart. Zach seems like he is just trying to have a viral moment (more so from the trailer)

Janet and her husband seem decent, Nia seems fine despite her breakdown about her husband being pantsed (hormones flying + hubby's peen on camera early on on filming). Jasmine seems like a cool friend of.

Kristen also already had hosting experience. I'm not sure Padma did.

She also brings technical perspective that Padma did grow into, but she was mostly just a face initially.

Anyone but Katie bot!

I have never thought of them that way but it is very accurate. Lol. Weird though that I kind of like Alexia but can not stand Teresa.

[ssmjlm]

The only Bravo show I watch is below deck. One deckhand down and now a stew.

I do like the new captain.

[jac]

I'm behind on RH Potomac, but I'm glad Candice is out. She shamelessly body shames and it's disgusting. I know they all say terrible things, but she's been exceptional. Not sure how Robyn will earn money without the show. I always got the impression they were on a bubble, but may things have changed. I like Karen, Gizelle and Whitney. The rest can go for sure.

I didn't think I could enjoy BD without Captain Lee, and I didn't watch Adventure, but I am really into this season. Looks like it gets a little more messy going forward and I am HERE for it.

Not sure I can watch another season of RH OC where Shannon is the victim of everyone.

Yes I am glad Candace is gone too. She is very emotionally stunted. Probably in part due to her mom.

[basilosaurus]

Candiace occasionally has very funny confessional clips, but I won't miss her. Robyn brings absolutely nothing to the show. And the fact that half these women won't film with each other, goodbye.

The BD murder mystery actually looked really fun. Sure, there was no actual figuring out of the mystery part, but it sure as hell beats yet another dumbass white party.

There was a guest of back when they were in Thailand who was on reddit. She said they were encouraged to put all sorts of outlandish requests. That's why the beach picnics or lugging everything to the top of Eze (it's a slog). For theme requests this is probably one of the best. And no groping of male crew to boot!

Dylan should just stand around and look pretty and never speak in his falsetto.

Season 2 of Selling Sunset dropped on Netflix, and they’re discussion the Kyle/Maricio split.

Edit: Buying Beverly Hills

There's no way I'll watch it, but I'll definitely look for a reddit thread.

I really like Kerry!  I liked Lee too, but I was ready for him to leave, TBH.  

I'm curious about the new stew - they are clearly trying to make us think it's Camille, but I've read that it definitely isn't.  Is it someone we know, or just someone Ben knows?  

[bex1973]

I haven't started the new season of Below Deck but just recently watched all the episodes of the OG and Med and loved them so I need to start the latest season.

Summer House Martha's Vineyard just started again - anyone watching? So many arguments in the first episode LOL

Maybe they're bringing back Leigh-Ann from last season who Ben was trading DMs with?
