I think Andy has started a trend now with the One on One’s with housewives . Now everyone is going to want one. Anyway, tonight it’s Lisa Vanderpump who is probably Andy’s second favorite housewife after Bethenny. So we should see a much different Andy tonight than we did in last night’s shit show. As I recap tonight’s show, we are still talking about last nights. It’s been the biggest topic of the day.
Oh that doucheface kid with Kristen and James was Lisa’s kid Max. Who knew? Speaking of all in the family, Pandora and her husband are bartending tonight. /sigh. Andy is still shocked that Jax and Tom eventually made up.
Why do they have poll questions about things that have already happened? Should Lisa take James back? Um, it’s clear she does.
Why are Lisa and Andy talking about how great the new season of RHOBH is? And that it is just like last season never happened? When by all other reports it’s the most violent fight ridden season ever? Which is it? They show a clip from tomorrows RHOBH and then say that WWHL will be live right afterward, which means expect 90 minutes on your DVR again tomorrow and make adjustments as necessary. 
Questions for Lisa:
Will you ever be able to forgive Brandi? Lisa says she thought they were on the right track but if you saw the trailer Brandi slaps her. Lisa said, she stabbed me in the back, she might as well slap me in the face. She says after this, she did give her a second chance but she thinks they are done.
How do you feel about Stassi saying she should bow down when Lisa reprimands her? Lisa says that is genuinely how they talk about her when she is not around. She’s fine with them feeling that way.
What’s your new tagline for the show this season? You can through me to the wolves and I shall return leading the pack!
What would it take for you to fire Kristen? Does she need to embezzle funds? Burn the place down? Well, keep watching. I don’t want to give it away. OH HAIL TO THE NOE. She must NOT fire Kristen! 🙁
Would you ever hire Stassi back? She has a soft spot for Stassi but she thinks she has moved on.
Which housewife would be the best server at SUR and who would be the worst? Best would be Kyle. Worst would be Adrienne.
How much fake hair do you wear? She says she has a little bit under there.
Do you think Tom will end up back with Kristen or will he stay with Ariana? Before Andy can even finish the question Lisa answers an empathic no. Poor Kristen.
Do you think that now that Kristen has the DVR back she will be able to move on from Tom? Lisa says she doesn’t think she will ever move on. Kristen has said that herself.
Did you find Kyle and Yolanda’s apologies to be genuine or did they just do it because they got a lot of backlash? Lisa says, “Good question!” Andy said he thought they were sincere. Lisa says she is in a good place with Kyle. She seems much more hesitant about Yolanda.
Yolanda is asked if she is still friends with Scheana despite the Kristen thing. She says yes she is but she has her own opinions about Kristen.
How much are the drinks at PUMP? $12 wow. You must predrink to go to PUMP it seems.
Andy talks about Lisa telling Andy he was a dick to her at the reunion and she didn’t want to come back. Lisa said he was right, she didn’t want to leave on that note. And this season is phenomenal and back to what it was. I hope so. But again there are many conflicting reports.
A lot of the staff thinks Kristen needs meds do you? Lisa says, “I think she’s had enough, don’t you?”
Gametime! You can only save one person from the burning building, who do you save?
Brandi or Scheana? Scheana!
Ken or Giggy? Giggy!
Jax or Gay Tom? Tom!
Kyle or Kim? Kyle?
Stassi or Katie? Katie! (That surprised me. She says Katie has a rough season this year.)
Yolanda or Lisa Rinna? She pleads the fifth… I think she would save Lisa she seems sort of meh on Yolanda tonight. They burned Yo anyway.
Ariana or Kristen? Ariana
P.S.. Did you notice the entire show was about the star, Kristen Doute? Because, Star.
I’m still lost on when this comes on, does it jot come on at 11:30 anymore. Also I hope as long as vp rules is on Kristen stays too, that’s legit crazy right there
As far as rhobh I love that lisa and Kyle are friends and seem to stay friends this time, I love them together. I feel like yolanda and lisa will never be that close because yolanda was the manipulator to Brandi last year in turning against lisa and Yolanda and Brandi are still friends, but honestly even when yo first came on I never got that her and lisa were all that close to begin with
Good recap. I’m still waiting for VR to come on. I read that recap already also. Just trying to stay awake to see them but oh well……..recaps might have to suffice until tomorrow when I can watch them
You might as well get some sleep and watch when you can FF through the commercials.

So in the new season Brandi slapps Lisa and pushes Kyle? What a bitch.
$12 is so cheap. My cocktails downstairs (the bar at the base of my apartment tower) is $18-$22. 🙁
Um even in the fancy pants places here they are more like 8 bucks. But in normal people places you can get bottomless margaritas for $15 bucks on Sunday Brunch. Allegedly.

….I’d probably die from alcohol poisoning with those prices to be honest. Happy hour starts in a few minutes and drinks go to $10 for a cocktail and beer bottles are around $9.
When I heard Lisa quote $12 a drink, my jaw hit the floor. Of course, my frame of reference is old (1980’s), probably, when you were a pre-teen or a ‘teenie bopper’, and based on prices at a known/popular night club for men and women aged about thirty y/o and upward on the south side of Chicago, which featured no cover live music four nights a week (or three nights of music, and a fourth night of a ‘headline act’; e.g. a psychic, hypnotist, slight-of- hand magician, pro belly dancers or a stand-up comic.)
Anyway, about $12 would buy you ten bottles of ice cold premium bottled beer and a slice, OR thirteen ice cold drafts of same brand w/a fresh frosted lager glass/flute and a slice. It was $1.50 for a bar trough booze mixed drinks. “Call” booze brand mixed drinks, $1.75. The most expensive drink we could offer were ice cream/heavy cream based two liquor concoctions, eg: pink ladies, grasshoppers, brandy alexanders, etc. were $3.50 – $4.00 (which utterly shocked our clientele to such an extent that bartenders and wait staff eventually were required to pause before noting the customer’s request to affirm in so many words, “Okay! One grasshopper coming up. You’re aware that your special drink has a different special price, right? $3.50. Game on?” During holidays or heavy traffic long weekends, we’d place index card sized “Feature Drink Offer” menus in table stands, which advertised/identified “refreshing creamy smooth, two liquor drinks” and their prices, along with bar food specials, upcoming special bands, acts, celebrations, even group day excursions, or overnight getaways, many which actually cost as little (at the time) as the equivalent cost of four to five PUMP cocktails plus a buck or two cheapskate’s tip.
Is it me or has Brandi been laying low, or did she secretly go away to rehab?
I want to go to wherever the bottomless margaritas are.
Sorry, I had a bit of a brain fart on that. It’s bottomless mimosas (obvi at brunch) and sometimes bloody marys. There are lots of places, but the one I hear the most about is Parks Edge.
Here is a link that will make Michael want to come to Atlanta!

I did bottomless mimosas last time I went to visit friends in NYC for the gay pride parade. It wasn’t even like you had to ask for a refill. There were girls going around with pitchers full of mimosa just topping you off every few minutes. It was magical. I learned that weekend not only that i am not mature enough for bottomless anything, but that I can’t keep up with gay men during pride. They’re on a whole ‘nother level.
I can get bottomless mimosas at brunch for $11 here. Also, we have bars where it’s $15 for a to shelf martini or $3 for a well vodka soda… not during happy hour. I wouldn’t blink at paying $12 for a drink at PUMP. For a trendy place like that, I don’t think that’s too expensive.
Great. Now I want to go to brunch.
It would take at least $60 to get buzzed at PUMP. I say if you have a driver, you should predrink before arrival like people used to do in college when going to the more expensive places. Start at the cheap drink places and end up in the high end places so you drunkenly go home with someone who can afford expensive drinks.
ALTHOUGH back when I was doing the bar scene, I never paid for drinks. But I don’t think guys do that anymore. At least not if you’re old. And fat. 🙁

I didn’t bat an eyelash when she quoted $12/drink…unfortunately I’ve grown to take for granted that medium to upscale places outside Boston (including NYC and other large cities) don’t charge an average $12-13 per cocktail (some glasses of wine are $11, believe it or not). I’d say prices are considerably lower at dive bars (max $10 per cocktail). Reading the different perspectives here makes me long for my hometown in the Midwest where $7-8 cocktails reign supreme….come to think of it, I’ll get to take advantage of just that when visiting my family next week 🙂
Agreed. I knock back $12 mojitos at my favorite bar all the time, then an $8 wine sampler.
We obviously are getting ripped off!!! This is why aussies go to Bali. $10 buckets of spirits all night apparently.
Micheal, dont you find cocktails here are weak as piss? My friend and I dont buy them anymore, we just stick to wine, which is cheaper and you know what you’re getting. I read somewhere once that in cockies the spirits are done as half or even quarter measures – esp in say Long Island Tea.
Okay, Lisa has been saying “I am done, dahling” and “I just cahn’t do this anymore” with an exasperated British sigh since the series began. But she is not, and she continues to do it. I will believe it when she puts her equally fame-whoring pink whatever’s away and goes back to being a restauranteur/bar owner. And takes care of her aging Ken doll.
Andy/Bravo coddles her as she is a ratings boom for them so she won’t leave until that changes. If anything with her recent financial issue she is even more aligned with Bravo. Holla for that dolla girl!! Lisa is a chav anyways.
OMG how have I not seen this trailer?! I was REALLY hoping Brandi would make a come back but she is fuuucked by the masses if she slapped Lisa fucking Vanderpump.
Doesn’t she also throw wine at someone?
I think Lisa is gorgeous but I also think she lies about her age – slapping the elderly will get you nowhere quick 😉
Brandi is long gone. She is the hyper violent one this season it appears. Pushes Kyle and slaps Lisa. I mean wtf. There is never an excuse for violence right? I can’t wait for the Brandi followers to come and comment on TT’s recap so we can enjoy telling them to stfu. Porscha and Brandi need their own fight club. Let them take it out on each other for ratings.
They didn’t get rid of Ramona for throwing a wineglass in Kristens face.
I didn’t mean ‘gone’ as in fired. Pyslocke said they wished Brandi would ‘come back’ as in curb her bad behaviour from last season. I was saying that with her violence shown in the trailer that first season fun Brandi is long gone. Cleared that up. And the Ramona thing was a plastic cup. Not glass.
I do not remember that Andy has ever questioned Lisa on the lawsuit against Villa Blanca. After the TT post of today that reveals the big payout they must make for the winning side’s atty fees, I was hoping, but doubting, he would. You know he would have done so if it were a NJ HW on the loosing end of illegal charges. I like Lisa, but Andy should treat all his employees equally. Good thing they have contracts and cannot file suit against him.
I think that’s the benefit of being a favorite of Andy’s, plus I really don’t think he knew about how much she has to pay for attorney’s fees. I do think it might get addressed at the reunion though.
There is some ambiguity about gay tom I seem to remember both Tom’s cuddling on that trip for stassi’s birthday! It really made me wonder what the hell was going on! Those two were spooning!
In Andy’s defense, the case is a civil one and not much in the news. Had I not had a source on this case, I would not have known either. I was emailed the info, just like I am for most good stuff. Y’all are great at sending me info, because most of the time I am busy blogging or moderating comments (lately by the way it is taking TWO TIMES moderating the same comments before they stick) etc. So don’t hesitate to email me info or links! 🙂

So…how annoying was Pandora “peeking” through all that flippin’ hair hanging in her face?! Seriously Pandie, you’re a grown woman, get that sh*t out of your face! It looks to me like she was hiding her face, probably because her husband is SO much prettier than she is. Shame she looks like daddy-o instead of her mum.
I still wonder if any of the violence they are showing in the previews is part of some soap opera acting class or a guest spot they did on one of the soaps in a crossover promotion. Would make sense with their two new housewives, and the aggression just seems a bit out of control to be real. Looking forward to this season. NJ was such a disappointment with the horrible editing and I just can’t watch Atlanta.
I suppose I could almost see that…. The two soap girls teaching them the fake slap and wine throw… But only because Lisa and Andy (two bastions of truth) keep talking about how the season harkens back to calmer seasons…

The push against Kyle looked pretty real but I suspected the Brandi slap thing could have been a stupid exercise where they both slap each other and move on (Bogan Brandi’s idea of course). I could also believe it is part of some acting scene or tutorial.
Yeah, I am also sensing the “slap” is a bit of a set up. A little too convenient for the previews. I think it is just some sort of role playing or goofing around. And remember the BEST part of last seasons trailer??!
The famous “Check mate, bitch!” scene? Yup……didn’t even make it to the actual series. Never shown.
These previews are just phony, shallow teases. You know, like Tom Sandoval walking down the street in West Hollywood.
giggles.

Didn’t get to see this last night. It was kinda crazy….when this was supposed come on (after the Vanderpump Rules epi), suddenly an intro to Lawrence O’Donnell’s The Last Word came on, from Nov 13…I immediately checked to see if something had inadvertently caused the channel to change. Nope…so I waited and about 3 minutes in – bloop – we switch to the interview from Sunday night with Kenya and Sherri……so I watched that AGAIN. Then waited until midnight (which would be the normal time for WWHL), but nope.
Watching Sherri and Kenya for the second time, I decided Sherri’s bad mood and behavior was because she was quite intimidated by Kenya.
Disappointed I didn’t get to see Lisa. 🙁
That’s weird. Are you watching in the US or somewhere else?

Well I’m happy Lisa seems to be team Kyle again. The “Dream Team” was thankfully such a short-lived whirlwind of awful.
I think it is Kyle, the Lisas and Eileen this season. Brandi is on the outs with everyone and Someone doesn’t like Kim. Is it Eileen?

Brandi is back to hating Kyle. Surprise surprise. I think Rinna is the one who fights with Kim. Eileen and Rinna didn’t get along, but I think it took a long time for them to come to blows.
