Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap: She Can’t Come Like No Cabbage!

December 28, 2014 by tamaratattles 194 Comments

RHOA nene nasty rude

 

I just read the little synopsis for this episode and I’m telling you right now I am so over the Kandi and Todd storyline. It never ceases to amaze me how Bravo can manipulate our little pea brains to like or hate the same person from season to season. I really liked Kandi at first, then I was neutral, and now I could not be more over her.

CYNTHIA

Cynthia takes Claudia to Derek J’s for a make-over.

CLAUDIA

Claudia’s Italian mother, and  her black grandmother on her father’s side are in town for a visit. Claudia’s mom brought snail salad for her. Apparently, that is a thing.  She takes them straight to Lips, a drag queen restaurant.  Claudia’s  mother is pressuring her to have a baby. Claudia’s mother has never said “I love you.” The 90 year old grandmother says it to Claudia all the time.

RHOA Kandi

Kandi bought her mother the house. Joyce won’t let Kandi have a key. Kandi and the aunts are eating on national television at Aunt Nora’s house off paper plates and plastic forks and drinking out of solo cups.  Well one of them was using a fork, the rest were ripping up the fried chicken with their hands and placing it in their mouths. Kandi tells the old lady gang that Sharon wants to whoop Joyce’s ass.

Kandi and Todd are concerned that the promoter for the play is not generating any sales.  Then she tells Todd about her conversation with her mother.  Todd says she should not have told Joyce that Sharon wants to punch her. Todd said he will just spend holidays with his mother.

PHAEDRA

Phaedra and her mother go out to lunch to discuss Apollo showing up at the videoless video launch professing his undying love. *YAWN*

Later, Phaedra’s mom is at her house and Phaedra pretends like she makes sure the kids have their teeth brushed and get a story time. No sign of the 24 hour nanny, or the all day sitter who are always there as well as her mother.

KENYA

Kenya is looking for an office space for her production company with Brandon. I love her wide leg pants. Kenya is going to work with Roger Bobb on her “Twirl On” show.

NENE

Nene has her obligatory scene with good ole Porsha because no one else wants to film with her.  Porsha needs to thank Nene for the check because if she wasn’t needed for this, she would not even be a FOH.  Nene arrives at a very small place where all the patrons are clearly visible and tells the guy at the door she is meeting “a girl with a lot of weave in her hair.” That’s Nene being a good friend.

Okay stop the tape. Nene is wearing a black see through top with her black bra as per usual. Only this one has FAVELAS and the number 74 on it in big white letters. Porsha seems to think it is some sort of “sports lingerie” and maybe it is. But the hysterical part is that a favela is a slum in Brazil.  Brazil has a lot of poverty and those poverty stricken slums are the favelas.  She might as well have GHETTO 74 on her chest. And the best part is I am sure she has no idea. I am really starting to believe the whole “her stylist is secretly sabotaging her” theory at this point.  Okay there is a Givenchy version of this ridiculous shirt for $1000 or you can get the $45 knock off here. This is the stupidest thing I have ever seen anyone wear on TV.  Although I have eaten chicken this way when I was on set as an extra for hours on end and they didn’t want to have to redo all of our lipstick.

Anyway, these two just rehash the lack of video at the video release and the attempted makeup between Nene and Cynthia. The shirt was worth having to watch the stupid scene though. Favelas…lol

RHOA Porsha

Nene invited Cynthia, Kenya and Porsha out for drinks. She wears cut off denim shorts replete with the threads dangling and a white dressy jacket. Again, WTF? Professional on the top and Daisy Duke on the bottom. Kendra and Porsha  were not told the other was coming Nene tells Porsha she needs to apologize to Kenya for her actions and maybe Kenya will apologize for her actions.

Kenya throws some shade at Nene (and Porsha) for living in Duluth. Nene in her talking head throws back saying that Kenya drives up there to go to the outlet (it is a good outlet mall but damn it is WAY outside the perimeter in the hinterlands. It’s like a day trip to go there.

Nene and Cynthia start their ongoing argument again. They don’t seem to be getting very far.  Kenya points out that Nene went on WWHL saying Cynthia should lose her job. Kenya is trying to moderate. Cynthia and Nene both say in their talking heads they wish Kenya would have butted out. Porsha bails to the bathroom, followed quickly by Kenya who is wearing either a really short dress or a shorts jumper. It’s not her best look. Oh wait it’s a shorts thing. That makes me like it better. No one at the table is winning any fashion awards in this scene though. While they were alone Cynthia extended a heartfelt sort of global apology for her behavior that hurt Cynthia. Whatever it was. Nene did not reciprocate. Porsha and Kenya return from “the bathroom” and Kenya immediately suggest the two go to lunch together to talk more deeply and privately. Nene says that will not happen. Maybe in two years they can do that. Wasn’t Nene the one that set up his ridiculous rehash scene in the first place? It that really all we are going to do this season is fight in a variety of different restaurants throughout Atlanta?

Nene then tells Cynthia and Porsha to make up. Nene clomps away from the table in her cut offs. I can’t believe she was not turned away at the door. Cut off jeans are not generally allowed in any restaurant more upscale than Denny’s.  Nene and Kenya return with more cocktails just as Porsha apologizes to Cynthia for being an hour late to their last argument in a public restaurant.

Kenya seems like she and Nene might have downed another one really quick at the bar. Kenya is SCREAMING  Cynthia’s name to get her attention for some reason, Nene is calling Porsha’s name over and over and Porsha and Cynthia are trying to have a conversation like Nene demanded.  Nene finally gets Porsha to acknowledge her and Porsha starts whining to Nene about the loud bitch (Kenya) at the end of the table. Um, this will not end well. Porsha says that Kenya is rude and disrespectful. And she was. I think she was also drunk. Not a good look.

Next Nene tries to get Porsha and Kenya to make up. Porsha says that Kenya doesn’t have the right energy for her to be open to it. Kenya says there were a lot of things that were said and done that we have to be ashamed of. Kenya says that she regrets some things that she said to Nene. So Nene accepts the apology but of course does not reciprocate by saying, “I’m sorry for all of the things I have said about you.” Oh no, not Nene.  Kenya says for her to move on she has to forgive Porsha and she has done that. Porsha then starts to get a bit of the bobble head happening and says, “Was I asking for forgiveness?”  Nene flat out asks Porsha if she is truly sorry for what she did. Porsha says she acknowledges “that that happened” and as a grown woman meeting Kenya that is not the way she wanted to react. No apology. Kenya gets up and walks to Porsha’s end of the table. She wants to hug it out. Kenya says she takes responsibility for her part and she is ready to move on. Porsha says “if you are accepting responsibility, then I can (give you a hug)”   Wait did Kenya just accept responsibility for getting attacked? Porsha  looks peeved.  Nene and Kenya I think are both over served and are somehow whooping it up laughing about ashy legs and how they are now friends. This interaction between those two seems to really bother Porsha. She was such a good little laptop and Nene is being all cool with her mortal enemy right in front of her?

Next Week: Cynthia and Peter go out to their new location and it’s a dump. Nene reverts back to hating Kenya.

    In the above pic, Kandi is wearing the same outfit she just wore to her Christmas party.

    Also, the girl that confronts Demetria about formerly dating Roger Bob is hairstylist Gocha. Oddly enough she lives in the same building as Roger Bobb and Claudia. Last year she was on La La’s VH1 show with her live in girlfriend.

    This show is starting to suck. Kandi get’s the most screentime, continuing to milk this whole Mama Joyce/Todd/Sharon fiasco. No one cares anymore and just out of respect for Sharon passing just cut out this whole storyline. It really won’t be a loss.

    Phaedra, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *Yawn*. Bitch says the same southern belle shit over and over again. She is boring. Kenya and Apollo really were her storyline.

    NeNe and Kenya have an odd relationship. Actually Nene is delusional. what was the point of this dinner? It’s like once Nene saw Cynthia sincerely wanted to move forward, she retracted any forgiveness. Not a good look for her. And now she’s gonna give Kenya and Claudia the cold shoulder next week? All this stuff is just getting boring and tiresome.

      Agreed about Phaedra. She should have lost her peach too. Besides bad mouthing Apollo (who she chose to marry, thus saving him from the waitress at the Waffle House), all she seems to have going on is her kids and her mother. I could have done without watching her and her Mom rake Apollo over the coals over lunch. I think her sons are cute but I don’t want to see them brush their teeth. Where are the scenes from her book tour? What is she doing with her funeral director’s license? Is she still a working attorney? None of those are all that interesting either but certainly better than this pity party and attempt to do damage control on her poor choice of a spouse.

      Jteaspills: nailed it!

      Kandi has become a miserable, insufferable bitch. Oh! She’s become her mother! She’s a horrible wife. Bravo has outdone itself on tackiness to keep airing the Mama Joyce/Miss Sharon story line. Talk about disrespectful. And where’d Kayla go? Did Riley run her out of town?

      Rhosy: yep re: Phaedra, her lack of story line, and her kids. If teeth brushing is featured in not one, but two episodes, it probably is a good sign you’ve run your course on the show.

      Nene, Porsha: GO AWAY. Porsha disgusts me. I can’t even get into that, but BITCH, YOU DRAGGED A WOMAN BY HER HAIR ON NATIONAL TELEVISION!!! I hope the prosecutors see her lack of remorse. Nene’s TV time should be limited to the midnight slot on HSN.

      Oh, Claudia, I can’t wait until you take over! She is one confident woman. (Nene, THAT is what being secure in your own skin looks like. Take notes.)

      Cynthia is so pretty and classy.

      I agree about them respecting Sharon. Although I have to admit that ‘she can’t come like no cabbage’ was the best line of the show and really hysterical, I am all Southern and have never heard this at all. And I’ve heard most of what they say, especially Phaedra. I really am starting to think that since Mama Elsa was such a hit with viewers and now Mama Joyce is keeping everyone entertained, that Bravo needs to do a show for senior women with zero f*cks to give about anything, like Kandi’s group of older relatives, they always crack me up. But like you said, Sharon has passed away so they really need to cut this crap now.

      After all, Kenya and Naynay the Moose are achieved thespians.

    Why do Kenya and Cynthia fall for Nene ‘ s
    BULLCRAP. She just want to see how many times she can show the viewers She can make those bitches bow down and they fall for it. I didn’t think I could every agree with a certain person but she was right they don’t really like Kenya you can even tell tonight that Cynthia just tolerates her too. Kenya just play your role for your paycheck. Don’ t continue to make extra efforts with them. Their opinion will never change. Now that Phaedra don’t have Kenya as her focus she is pretty boring. Please do not ask Porsha back next season not even as a friend. Please let NENE
    Go bravo. Kandi continue to love and support your mother but if it cost something in the end
    Remember it was your choice.

          Why?? Don’t you think she seksi? Cause she sure does. It would be difficult to recognize her as the same woman who first came on the show and then her glammed up azz today. She really thinks she’s got it going on. I think that may be part of the problem. She’s no longer content to be grandma in the background who is offended at nekkid male dancers at a party. She wants to hold a peach herself.

    The lunch at the end was ridiculous. Cynthia is either blind or stupid to think anything was resolved. She apologized to Nene for something Nene did, and Nene gloated over the “win”. How is that resolution? And then when Cynthia was smooching all over Nene…it made me want to puke.

    The same with the Porsha/Kenya exchange. One sided, as you said. I do find it creepy that Nene keeps putting these lunches together, giving orders on how to be a ” good friend”, but she can’t follow what she preaches.

    I used to like this show. Now, I watch it hoping the end is near. I’ve invested too much time to stop now. Bravo…PLEASE put me out of my misery!

      It is a great relief to come here and confirm that I am not the only one who sees through all this “drama.” ITA Why did Nene bother to arrange the lunch only to order everyone to apologize except herself. Then she turns around and tells Cynthia it will be two years before they can lunch together. That makes no sense. Cynthia should have told her then and there that that is exactly the kind of response that ended their friendship. Then she should have walked out. Ditto for Kenya. When the Rev. Airhead started spouting off about rude MFs. I would not get up to hug her. I would have walked out. This show is getting pathetic to the point of being boring. I want even get started on Kandi and the OGs.

        ​That is exactly what the airhead wanted her to do. Which is why Kenya did the exact opposite. She basically said, “I forgive you, You sank to your basic animalistic instincts because you are an ignorant fool. You should be ashamed of yourself. But let me give you a hug, poor dear. I take responsibility for overestimating your ability to control yourself in stressful situations. There, there. You poor dumb fool.”

        And then yukked it up with Nene to add a bit of extra salt.

        Smart. Devious. Calculated. And perfectly executed.

        When Nene and Kenya started laughing and high-fiving, Porsha gave the perfect “wtf just happened?” look. She clearly miscalculated in thinking Nene is her friend. It is all business with Nene.

        In hugging it out, Kenya effectively stopped giving Porsha a storyline. Now that she has “apologized” there is no need for Porsha to keep bringing her up. If she does, then she looks like an ass.

        Tamara, does the cast get some sort of bonus for playing peacemaker? Or is that all producer influenced and part of your contract?

So intentional. Kenya did have a good point about not being played like that as women, but dumb and dumber didn’t get it. Kenya made a point to Bravo too. I see you Kenya,I get you. I’m from the NE too and that bond you are looking for does not exist like that with some circles of GA natives in the south. They can’t get pass the jealousy to see how everyone could benefit from this opportunity without being divisive. It’s the plantation mentality. Move on, other great circles in GA will embrace you.

        Kenya is a reality tv mastermind. People are liking Team Pretty to the point that no one is caring for Phaedra, Kandi and Nene’s story lines. Nene burned her bridge with most of her fans during the last season. Phaedra and Kandi story lines are redundant. One more pretty unmarried woman and they should rename the show Frolicking in ATL

      I agree, in both instances the one who was a hundred percent in the wrong is the one who apologized. I actually like Porsha and think she is funny but I don’t think that she has a place on this show anymore after getting violent. Her only ally is Nene and even Nene really is not that much of an ally. Porsha really does seem to be just dumber than a rock. I always enjoy Kenya whenever she is onscreen, and I love Cynthia and all her fashion and different looks. Nene is grating on me so bad, I have all the same feeling about her that I did at the end of last season. Kim Zolciak is seemingly the only person on earth who can bring out the fun, light-hearted side in Nene. Everyone else she just rolls right over top of and brings the level down to gloom and doom. I really can’t understand why Andy did not get rid of her after the reunion when she was so disrespectful to him.

And it shows the fun side of Kenya, that this is really who she is, all her interactions with her friends they are always laughing and cutting up, she is surrounded by family that love her and support her so that is really the sign of someone who really does have some things together in her life, I just think she was knocked off balance last season.

    Gawd, bring on the vodka tonics. If I was married to Phaedra I would stay in a night club too. I’m sure she was relieved when Apollo went to the big house in order to keep his big mouth shut, kind of like Angela Stanton. Phuck Phaedra. YOUR actions say a lot too.

    Meanwhile, I think that Kenya could have been more graceful in their place of meeting, but hugging it out with Porsha was a stroke of genius. Even though it was obvious to me that she doesn’t give a rat’s ass about Porsha, it was enough to make Porsha look like the hood rat she really is. Poor bitch was so nonplussed she really didn’t know how to respond and look cool doing it. HA!

      Porsha’s expression was priceless to watch as Kenya went back to her seat after the neutralizing hug. You could really see defeat on her face and now she doesn’t know what to do. Without the Hate Kenya rant, she has nothing to say, especially to her “we-hate-Kenya” fans. She’ll have to find someone else to hate, but oh, forgot, she’s gone. There is good in the world.

      Phaedra should have supported Apollo through his ordeal, a wife knows their husband, and has intuitions of things that may be happening. Now she is preaching to him about his behavior, trying to separate herself from his doings. No. She is an attorney, and should have been in the courtroom, conversing with his attorney, trying to act on his behalf. This is the father of your children, you would want him to spend the least amount of time in prison, so he can be around for their children. Her presence would have made a difference. She could have helped him secure the best legal team to help reduce the charges. Instead of keeping up the housewives, Phaedra should have been keeping up with Apollo, and constantly reminding him of his criminal ways, and not to be engaging in any of that activity any more. She had an idea, but she got caught up in the fame and the money. You know damn well if your man is in the strip club that often, he is not working gainfully and legally. But to leave him hanging alone, and scold him in front of your mother, like your hands are so clean, no, no way Phakedra!

        Maybe Nene was trying to emulate her BFF Kim K again. Favelas 74 is the name of Riccardo Tisci’s Spring 2014 collection. Tisci says “Men in favelas are more natural and more confident about their sexuality.” 74 is for his birth year. If you think this shirt is bad, you should see other items in his collection for men. . .like leggings with pink floral shorts that look like a skirt with a matching shirt. It’s hilarious. Who actually wears this crap, let alone pays $1K for it . . . and the shirt is sold out. SMH

      If anyone needs a makeover, it’s Cynthia. Her desperate attempt to look completely different in every scene is all over the place. It looks like she’s never gotten rid of any clothing or accessory item she’s ever owned.
      I know she’s a super model, but she does not appear to have any definitive style of her own. Maybe her style is rag bag, grab bag and she’s just trying to show how versatile her look can be, but a lot of it is ridic.
      At least she’s not wearing those stupid little tiny Fedora hats with everything. When she met with Porsha, she replaced that with a little ivy league cap and horribly ugly giant black rimmed glasses. The look was so bad, I had to look away when the camera was on her.

I think I like lapdog Cynthia better..now that she barks, I find her arrogant. I never liked Cynthia anyway, because I thought she was sneaky with the wedding, but I am mainly mad because she did not keep that fine ass leon in stock off with looking at arrogant peter.

    Kenya’s reference to Porsha’s family in an effort to remind her of how far from the Williams public service and advocacy tree Porsha had fallen seemed not to have fazed her. Not at all. No blink of recognition of what Kenya was referencing..

    Nothing.

    I have never been offended by someone’s lack of awareness, but Porsha’s arrogant and loud emptiness is stunning…

    Even for the loud and empty platform that is rhoa.

    The first couple of Kandi seasons allowed us to see her as a business woman, but the decision to reduce her to daughter and wife has produced a Kandi I do not understand. Her wide eyed lack of sophistication in NYC was very strange: She is a Grammy award winner presumably worth millions.

    Are we supposed to believe she is unfamiliar with nyc?

    And her mother’s and aunts’ grammar is making their scenes unwatchable.

    What are the producers going for with this incredibly shrinking Kandi?

    Finally, I do get Nene’s anger with Cynthia since while hanging out with Nene during off season (if Nene is to be believed), Cynthia decided to make her storyline be new assertive Cynthia with Nene as foil. So I guess Nene does feel betrayed.

    And why doesn’t Cynthia say how embarrassing it was 2 seasons back for Nene to point out how relatively poor Cynthia was with the whole discount pizza shopping scene? Are we to believe that the “rift” is because Nene called Peter a bitch?

    I wonder how many more seasons rhoa has?

      You ask great questions. As far as Nene and Cynthia go, in my (not so) humble opinion, Peter put a bug in his wife’s ear telling her to bring it, that they could use the dough. I also think that Cynthia is a sweet person who doesn’t really like controversy too much and can be persuaded, BUT I do think she was tired of Nene and her ways. I actually like Cynthia and Peter, but in this instance, I do think Cynthia was less than forthcoming with Nene. So, basically I’m saying that Cynthia was a bit of a chicken shit 🙂

        Peter definitely put the bug in his wife’s ear. Not only did he encourage the ‘Nene is the Devil’ story line, but steered her friendship w/ Kenya. Peter knows the lay of the land and wanted his wife w/ the ‘hot’ HW as her BFF. Too bad he didn’t know that Claudia was in the pike for that role and his wife can still be put to pasture.

        She was a bit chicken (Not shit. She’s better than that.), but the chicken sure as heck put a dang moose, running wild, it its place after she realized that Naynay treated her as poorly as she did, it caused her to consider what kind of friend browbeats and disrespects a friend, and what kind of woman (or chicken) was she for passively accepting Naynay’s abuse. Then, on top of that, she knew that Naynay asked Peter to speak up, and he did speak as a good and real friend would. He challenged her to be the better woman, said don’t let anger rule her, warned her, all IN HER BEST INTEREST. Then the man she called “buddy” became the interferring “bitch”. Cynthia was aware of her lie. Peter didn’t interfere. He spoke to Naynay as requested, and he encouraged, then challenged her to take the higher road. He did the tough work that good friends must do when they see their friend take the damaging low road. Rather than be true to herself and the housewifes, admit her error and her lie to those that didn’t see her ask Peter what was on his mind, Naynay continued to lie and use her lie as her sick-minded rationale to disrespect Peter, get up in his face, finger point, yell her insulting lie and she dared to call him a name that honestly was a custom fit for her.
        I suspect that Peter may have been so furious that he kept his words to himself so he could take time to process what happened, so he wouldn’t reply in deserved kind about/to Naynay, (and he also was probably hoping that Cynthia, who reeled from her own issues with Naynay, would note there was another casualty from Naynay’s fury. Him.) She did as Peter hoped and her furious fans demanded, and she realized more had to be addressed before calling a truce. She changed her mind and heart in the matter, and Naynay reacted as though a woman had never before ever reconsidered a decision after she realized it wasn’t a good fit, and of course Naynay thought that she had a say in Cynthia’s decision. It was the right thing to do as was evidenced by a very notable improvement in her and Peter’s marriage, so improved their happiness read ‘real’ to her fans I have a feeling that there is a special purpose to Cyndi’s efforts to reconcile. My guess is she wants Naynay to depart on good terms with her, or maybe she may try to reform or expose Naynay. Cynthia was a super model, and she didn’t get where she went by acting like Sweet Polly Purebred.

          ​Not to mention that you have to be smarter than a bag of hair to sell weave. Also it was kind of funny that Nene said that the Video Premiere with no Video is like a fashion line with no fashions. I realize that was a dig at Sheree, but recently Phaedra “launched her new lingerie line” which was filmed for David Tutera’s celebrations. There was no lingerie at the launch. Which was fine I guess because no one turned up for it either.

      I just have to comment on Porsha’s fabled “great family”. TT has been overly kind and has only mentioned it once that I remember. Hosea Williams did march with MLK, Jr. He was an important part of the whole Civil Rights movement. In later years, he always planned to feed all of the homeless in Atlanta for Thanksgiving and every year some major corporation had to come in and pay for the dinner at the last minute. Poor Hosea was lucky to not be jailed for multiple DUI’s. I’m not trying to throw shade b/c my own brother had more DUI’s than I have fingers and toes. I think the thing Porsha did to destroy her reputation wasn’t the reunion but the Underground RR comment. Please RHW’s take your peach from Porsha before she embarrasses herself more.

    for not saying “ok mama, you can’t go around calling this woman a prostitute when you know she was not”.
    for not saying “mama Sharon I understand what you are saying and I am so sorry for what my mum has done and said, and I understand why you would want to punch her. I’ll try to talk to her again”

    how can she not see she will not be disrespecting her mother if she asks her mother to respect her husband and mother in law?

      I wonder if Kandi has yet realized that perhaps ticket sales were slow for her touring play because nobody wants to see that made-up Mama drama. Her mother’s behavior and Kandi’s allowing it is disgusting and incomprehensible to a lot of us. She has turned off a lot of fans. I used to like Kandi. I thought she was level headed and tough-minded. Now I don’t know what her problem is. If I bought my Mother an expensive new home, I’d have a key to it whether she liked it or not. I probably would not use it but I would have it. Joyce is so ungrateful, as one of her sisters pointed out about the free house. This story line is old and stale not to mention the parts that are disrespectful to Todd’s late mother who can no longer defend herself. Enough already.

So shady that he manages to act respectfully with a bitter, evil, horrible, old ghetto trash woman who has done nothing but slander and threaten violence on him and his family on national television. With absolutely no support from his wife who allows this to continue and dare I say actually encourages it to keep her story-line relevant, and Kandi gives him crap because he chooses his holidays with his persecuted mother. Oh yes, so very shady.

        Todd,RUN! Get your lovely daughter away from Kandi’s horrible, spoiled, entitled, trashy, rude, stupid family before she begins to think that this behavior is acceptable. They will ruin her and you for as long as you allow them. Do you really want to have a child with someone who raised Riley to be that spoiled little monster.

      Yeah, I have to say, I wait for the day when Joyce shits on her so hard she will have no choice but to cut that tie. And it most likely will happen. And then she will have to go back over all the b.s. she took from mom and realize she should have cut that tie years earlier. She comes from the school that says no matter how deranged or lunatic your mother is you still worship at her feet because she squirted you out. Thank god things are changing, but apparently Kandi hasn’t gotten the message. I know if Kandi cuts off Joyce her whole family will come down on her. But she might as well be a battered woman because she is in an emotionally abusive relationship with her own mother. I have to hand it to Sharon for standing up for herself at every juncture, may she rest in peace. I really don’t think Todd and Kandi will last. I am not Todd’s biggest fan, but Joyce is just unbearable and knowing that the stress Joyce caused on his mom may have contributed to her death (because she was called a prostitute on national tv, that had to be devastating) is something Todd may find increasingly hard to forgive.

Is Kenya trying to play office , Kandi needs to grow a pair as far as Mama J is concerned or just go ahead to DIVORCE COURT , and it’s gotten to the point I block Cynthia out because she does whatever she is told by Peter or. Whom ever is her pal at the time!

    I was very disappointed that Cynthia didn’t hold her ground with NeNe….She seemed to be kissing up way too much. It was obvious that NeNe was not receptive but she kept going on and on and kissing, and hugging…it made me sick…smh
    Kandi is definitely a instigator! I agreed with Todd…It was NOT necessary to go back and repeat what his mother said to Joyce…very immature.
    I can see this being Phaedra’s last season if she doesn’t get some life soon. She is boring and draining.
    I’m waiting to see how Claudia and Demetria are going to evolve in the group…Oh and I hope this is the LAST week we have to see that wig NeNe is wearing.

        Personally, I have always liked Cynthia. That is why it bothers me so much to watch her allow herself be victimized. She put up with a lot from Nene before coming to her senses. She said she had moved on but still keeps going back to get her nose rubbed in more poop. I like the more aggressive Cynthia and want to see more of that Cynthia when she is dealing with the likes of Nene. You can’t kiss and make up with someone who really does not want to kiss and make up with you. Nene played her at that lunch by making her apologize then refusing to do so herself and further saying it could be two years before she can unbend enough to lunch with Cynthia. Girl bye.

      I totally agree with your Cynthia kissing Nene comment. It just showed how desperate she is for Nene’s friendship. Nene can continue to dust the floor with her and she will get up and ask for more. All of that new Cynthia attitude was just a front to hide her hurt. She leaped at the first opportunity to patch things up. It’s one thing to be nice, and totally another to be a willing victim of someone’s ill treatment.

        Nene’s plot to mend fences was just that. A plot! I think she felt Cynthia one upped her so to speak. Or embarrassed her in public by bad mouthing her. And she ended the friendship with nene. So nene had to pretend to want to make up… Get Cynthia to apologize and take all fault. Then she comes out the innocent one. And Cynthia fell for it. Just my opinion.
        Nene use to be my favorite But not anymore. Since her sh&$ doesn’t stink anymore attitude I can’t stand her!!

    Givenchy’s head designer Riccardo Tisci, who is Italian, btw not Brazilian, started that Favelas 74 thing & I just don’t get it either — guess I’m just not high fashion enough. Nene probably wears it because of the Kanye/Kim K. connection to Tisci — plus the fact that she has more money than sense.

    The Good:
    Claudia’s 90-year-old grandmother should definitely show up more. This woman was hilarious and full of life. I liked their interaction.

    The Bad:
    Kandi is so clueless and emotionally retarded due to the abuse inflicted by her mother, that she honestly believes that if she doesn’t agree with her mother, she doesn’t love her. Also, Todd bringing up separate holidays, in the first year of marriage, is definitely a red flag. From the way Kandi laughed about telling her mom what Mrs. Sharon said while relaying it to Todd, I think she is actually amused by this and doesn’t see a problem with her mom’s actions.

    The Ugly:
    Nene’s “mm-hmm” face as Cynthia apologized. She sat there as if she were some type of benevolent queen accepting graces from her groveling subject, but she didn’t even attempt to apologize for her actions. Nene is as delusional as Joyce.

She’s instilled a sense of guilt in Kandi where she feels like she can never do enough to pay her mama back. And that’s just the way greedy bitch mama wants it. And she doesn’t want any interloper husbands or boyfriends coming between her and Kandi’s money.

    The whole show is a revolving door. Don’t know how Claudia will be able to work in a decent story line when all others’ storylines just are boring. Kandi offends me the most. I did like her once but I can see how Todd is going to leave her in the dust eventually. I like the way he stands up for his point of view, and then Kandi just walks away. Kandi said tonight, “I don’t care whether my mother is right or wrong, I’m just not going to let her [Sharon] say that to my mother.” That’s the problem with her. She just doesn’t care about any one elses’ point of view except hers and her mother’s. She is very, very selfish. Her daughter reminds me of MJ. Waiting for Todd, to dump her. Run Todd, Forest Gump did it, Run.

Those seem to be the people that do well in business. Kandi is as shrewd as they come which is why she has a sex toy line. Besides Bethenny, she definitely found a niche where she could make some money, because very few celebrities would put their name on something like that. I think the male half of Eurythmics, whose name I can’t remember, has a dildo line, but I can’t think of any other famous people who sell these products. So talk about a good exercise in branding.

      I still find them all interesting (except Nene) but I am the only one. I sympathize with Phaedra and her dilemna with Apollo. I had forgotten that she did want him to join the funeral home business with her, I remember that scene and how adamant he was that he was not going to do that. It’s a damn shame at this point that he couldn’t lower himself to do real, non-criminal work. And my heart breaks for her that it is clear what she is saying about how he has zero concern that his kids are going to be without him. He really DOES NOT CARE, and it is so obvious. And for her that has to be really hard to swallow. I have never seen someone so dejected as Phaedra is. I had suspicions that she might have been involved but I no longer do now. I think she was in denial and looking the other way, but now I don’t believe she had involvement. She stayed too busy to fool with him and expected him to be a grown up. I was so glad her mother was with her when he came in the room on the last episode. I see a woman putting her head down and trudging through a storm one step at a time, and I honestly admire her for her composure, especially now that it is very clear he is only trying to reunite with her because he doesn’t want to lose the lifestyle to which he has become accustomed.

      However I am done with all the other housewives shows. I am not interested in seeing Bethenny on NY anymore, the OC thing is tired, NJ is dead, the BH women ought to be flogged for even ever complaining about anything, as chi chi a world as they live in, I won’t be a party to that anymore. I tried to watch the Australia one but that psychic who was married to a rock star grated on my nerves so bad with her bragging that I gave it up. Ladies of London I thought was fairly interesting so if that returns I will watch it. Vanderpump rules is an enjoyable trainwreck but I am ashamed to admit I enjoy it.

I loathe the warped relationship she has with her witch of a mother and can’t bear to watch her and Todd have a conversation.

On to Kenya I thought it was very big of her to just let everything go in light of what happened to her especially since porsha was being so flippant about her part in it all. Nene just pissed me off completely. You could tell this scene was one that production must have wanted. Why else call Cynthia out to make amends and then when Cynthia tries to do that snub her completely.

    As always, Tamara’s recap is on point and hilarious. Last night’s episode was boring, but several things stood out. (1) I couldn’t believe Cynthia said she needs for Claudia to look fabulous all the time considering that Cynthia herself has not looked fabulous (or even okay IMO) in a long, long time. (2) Porsha “went Decatur” in a nanosecond. A Decatur girl like Porsha can only pretend to be a rich Atlanta socialite for so long. (3) Kenya was rude but Porsha was more rude. (4) This season seems totally scripted and the scriptwriter is not a good one. (5) Kandi and her relatives remind me of witches cackling and plotting at a witches convention how to cook Todd stew. (6) Chemistry among cast members and personalities make the show. “These girls”, as Nene says, lack chemistry. One has no true personality, one is a child in an adult body, one seems way too “normal” to be on the show, two are bullies when one bully is enough for the mix, and one seems seriously emotionally retarded when it comes to everyone but her mother. One of the things I liked most about the show in the past was humor and being able to see my own strengths and weaknesses in the women. I don’t see either this season, so my RHOA days might have to come to an end.

      If the season is totally scripted, then for all you know they were merely *acting* rude. Maybe both are nice polite people in “real” life, and Porsha is intelligent 😀

      I think this show, and the other HW shows, are more scripted/less real than I at first thought, or, over the years, the producers have been injecting more script, leaving little to no reality.

      This is one of the last HW shows I still watch (RHNJ being the other one), but I think this may be my last RHATL season … as it is, I’ve only seen bits of the episodes this season … not sure I’ll bother catching up with those I have missed.

    Am I the only one who thinks that NeNe and Porsche were the only two sober ones there? It looked to me like NeNe knew exactly what she was doing, playing along like she was drunk like Kenya, but playing her instead. They wanted NeNe to film with Cynthia and Kenya but NeNe wasn’t having that, so she played them instead. By the looks of it, they were there for hours as it was dark by the time they got done. As Kenya got drunker and louder…laughing and cackling away, NeNe would egg her on and laugh too, but that laugh/smile never reached her eyes. Kenya and Cynthia were too trusting and high to notice. NeNe extracts the apologies from them and then does not offer a sincere one in return. The look on Porsche’s face was of disgust and confusion. I’m thinking she was clueless as to what NeNe was doing. Of course NeNe wouldn’t trust her. That whole scene pissed me off..I am team Cynthia and Kenya, if only because I’m so NOT team NeNe. Come on girls, wise up, sheesh! Cynthia, that tearful apology was so cringe worthy..she’s in over her head. I was so looking forward to this season because I *thought* they were gonna take NeNe down a peg. So far, it looks to me like NeNe is still ruling the roost. I hope things change soon because like everyone else, this season is full of stupid.

    Cynthia was as tickled as a little school girl to be granted permission to crawl back up Nene’s tush.
    Nene and Kendra need to understand that once you reach a certain age….booty shorts are just wrong on so many levels.
    I adore Claudia’s grandmother and her mother and as much as I enjoyed watching them, I wish that she would keep them far away from this hot mess of a show….no good will come of it!

    I keep waiting for Oprah to jump out and yell, “You’ve dated Roger Bob and You’ve dated Roger Bob….everybody’s dated Roger Bob!”

      I’ll be damned if a woman as fine as Kenya Moore needs an expiration date on “booty shorts.” if you are sixty and you can bring it like that in booty shorts, then it’s all good over here. That “certain age” card does not belong in Kenya’s deck.

      As for Nene, I’d rather see her in booty shorts, than blonde wigs.

    *Cynthia looks a hot mess (again)..but giving a makeover to a prettier, younger Claudia. lol
    *Nenee is loud and rude…and needs to ditch the “cut offs” . no one her age needs this look. not even going to mention the “kindergarten/cut with dull scissors” hair mess.
    *Porsha…why is she even on this show??? no husband, no job, no money.
    *Kandi…money didn’t buy you any class. Stand up to your momma.
    *Claudia-so pretty
    *Kenya-why do you not already have an office for this alledeged Production Company?

      Kenya basks in the light of past glories and blah, blah, blahs about all her talents and what she’s gonna’ do and she’s a producer and actress, etc., but she never really does much of anything. All I see her doing is twerk and then laugh and laugh. A show called “Twirl On”? How unbelievably creative.

      It’s actually a real production company and it’s in the beginning stages of being revamped. So far the only known titles she has produced are Booty Boot Camp and A Movie with Borris Kodjoe.
      Her show “Twirl On” has a great cast and the pilot has been shot.

    It’s stupid of me I know but up until the Mama Joyce nightmare began, I would never believed that I’d be so disgusted by Kandi. It’s all bs! Kandi doesn’t love or respect Joyce a bit more than anyone else. In fact I think the whole think is sick, reality TV or not. I wanted Todd to bail before the wedding & now am waiting for the marriage to end. Now that Ms.Joyce has died, all bets are off.Todd seemed to love his mom dearly & I expect to see some pain & resentment there! All Kandi needs is Joyce, Riley & her money & I hope she’all live happily ever after!

    The only good thing about this episode was the bong hit I took while watching it, and then eating a whole bag of sweet potato chips.

    It also seems like this episode is the perfect set-up for Kandi’s new show next spring, “Kandi Gets Divorced”.

      ​I forsee in the divorce show a repeat of Bethenny Frankel who was furious that everyone thought Jason was perfect and she was a shrew. Bethenny is STILL bitter about that.

      Kandi’s relationship boundaries with Joyce, Riley, Todd and even Carmen are so unhealthy and inappropriate. Now that Todd’s mom is gone, I don’t know how Todd could ever forgive or really trust Kandi for permitting Joyce to disparage Todd’s mom and dad as the worst kind of lowlifes on national T.V. and have no consequences. I couldn’t get past the betrayal. He clearly comes last in her line of priorities, but of course that was clear in the details of her pre-nup.

      And who’s parents expect their successful children to provide them with the same quality of lifestyle that the children have earned for themselves? My 85-year-old mom will hardly let us buy her dinner, let alone, expect a 7 bedroom home, cars, credit cards, etc. Mama Joyce seems to think she deserves Kandi’s riches because she raised her and sacrificed like most parents. She has Kandi so bamboozled with guilt about what Kandi owes her. And little Riley seems so spoiled and entitled. I wonder how she will ever find her own sense of self esteem and respect without Kandi’s money. People who aren’t hungry usually don’t find much success. That’s why rich kids often fail.

    These comments are on POINT tonight… Nene is kind of like a huge shark (with a crazy wig and 5 o’clock shadow) and all these women are fishing for her friendship…Problem is, only one person can snag her at a time, AND once they get her on their boat, she promptly bites them on the balls and flops back overboard looking for a bigger piece of tuna! Why the hell does anyone want to fish for Nene?!? P.S. I think Porsha is dumb enough to try to kiss a shark on the mouth as long as it’s a photo op!

      Thanks, lauraannb. There’s gotta be a purpose to Cyndi’s kissing and exaggerating her forgiveness, once, twice, three times. Almost biblical.
      Short-term, it effectively declawed Naynay. Her speaking poorly about Cyndi speaks badly of herself. Cyndi isn’t done.

    I had promised myself I was going to go “cold turkey” and stop watching this “show”, but I lied to myself. In any case, I sooo agree with Brina, jrleaguer and many other commenters on here about RHOA. TT does excellent recaps, and to add my 2 cents,it is disgusting to watch MJ and Kandi interact. MJ has a hard line constantly turned down mouth, poised for something “nice-nasty” to always come out. (one of her sisters looks the same way) Kandi on the other hand, always has this maniaical “joker” grin on her face even at the most inappropriate times (maybe she can’t help it). I feel sorry for Todd and hope he will get out in time if he needs to. Nene and Phaedra. They should have their own show with just mirrors. Nene could just look at herself and talk back and agree and worship herself, and Phaedra could conduct fake prayer meetings and call on Jesus to ‘fix’ it.
    Kendra needs to find a real job, and Cynthia ought to take her husbands advice and stop kissing Nenes’ a$$. Porsha…there is nothing I can say about this broad that hasn’t already been said. She just gets dumber and dumber. So far Claudia looks and sounds normal, don’t know how long that will last with this group, and I haven’t seen Demitria enough to comment. Ok I’m done.

    Gosh, darn it! I hate it when the show is so obviously fake. All four actresses in the “let’s get together and talk this out sequence” must have cringed as they improvised the awkward plot line.. Production has got to come up with more believable motivations – they just pulled this shit outta their asses.

    This was my least favorite installment in recent memory. Kenya’s “sleeve or hoof” read was classic though.

    Great recap. Was ashamed that I was hoping Kenya would realign Portia’s attitude and weave. But gratefully she didn’t.
    Portia is beating the shit out of herself!
    I liked the way production put all together…but, am disappointed at lack of integrity of Nene and Portia…sometimes Kenya.
    Tired of Kandi and her mom. It doesn’t seem she’ll EVER get it!!

    Tamara, great review as always! But, Nene did reciprocate somewhat to Kenya. When Kenya said she regretted things she said Nene asked “Do you really”, and when Kenya said yes, Nene said “Well so do I”.

    There’s no outlet in Duluth. Duluth is literally less than 15 minutes North of the Perimeter. The fucking outlet is way up 400 near Dawsonville. You are either on drugs or a recent expat to the area… Because that statement wasn’t even remotely correct. Also stop fucking hating on Gwinnett County.. Its not Buckhead but its definitely not fucking Bankhead Highway neither. Lots of celebrites live here fool.

    Nene should goooooo! She’s no good story line, she’s uses tactics to bully, that does not speak well on her part. She feels too big to admit to faults caused by her. She’s definitely jealous of beautiful people like Kenya. Kenya, has a good personality, educated and smart but not a pole dancer, or dump personal. Porcha should not be allowed to appear ok not the programme at all, pheadra is just boring. Nene, people put you where you are today, also, those people can take you OUT!

        @April, I don’t think Todd is an opportunist as he’s made out to be, but if he is, he’s the type that Kandi seems to attract. but personally I don’t think he is, and he doesn’t come across as a punk either, so I don’t know how much (more) verbal abuse he will take from Kandis’ mom. I wish His mother had lived, then we would all get to see that MJ is all bark and no bite.

    Makeup was weird this epi….Phaedra’s lashes and NeNe’s makeup used to be flawless but this season is idk. Didn’t like Cynthia’s pepto bismal outfit or her hair. Like TT I loved Kenya wide leg pants. ..those were great and she is stepping up her game this season but NeNe’s outfits were a mess. I liked Kenya being the bigger woman and would have liked if nene did the same. MJ got her keys and that’s all she cares about. Todd is halfway out the door and he’s right all Kandi does is defend her mom and run Away from the Situation…what does she think marriage is about? I’m single but I know you gotta talk it out if you wanna stay married. Claudia’s family was cute and I see her in both her mom and her grandma. My parents told me they loved me all the time so it’s hard to hear her say she never heard it but I also agree with her mom that actions speak.
