Between last night’s Nene drama and the Trump drama and the insanely good BB17 feeds that are still going on today, I have not been able to get to RHOOC until now. And frankly, I’m not really looking forward to the show. My I hate the new housewife post has been viewed A LOT since last night so I know it isn’t a fun show.
Heather sits down with Meghan because Heather has no compassion for Shannon and wants to be a shit stirrer again this season and finds Meghan to be the perfect minion in that regard. I swear the triumvirate of Heather, Meghan, and Tamra will be downfall of this series. And just like that Tamra sticks her nose in it. Shannon is crying in the bathroom. Meghan tries to kiss her alleged husband and he clinches his lips and flinches. Meghan tries to approach Shannon to apologize and then goes in on her again. Meghan is a bitch. Shannon walks away from Meghan again. Meghan needs to buy a clue.
Vicki returns home from Florida and she doesn’t feel well. Brooks and Vicki talk about juicing and um, other dietary changes Brooks is making to help with chemo.
Meghan has bought a friend to do all the wifely duties she doesn’t want to be bothered with. Brooks a brough an event planner to do all of the event work that she doesn’t want to be bothered with.
Heather is building a house. I bet you didn’t know that. It’s a lot of work for her to approve sinks and flooring. She has a very hard life.
Tamra, Vicki and Shannon go out to dinner. Tamra’s grandbaby is about to be born. Shannon tells the whole Meghan drama to Vicki since she wasn’t in Napa. Tamra tells Shannon she is not invited to Meghan’s party. Shannon had already bought a new dress for the party. Vicki says she is not going if Shannon is not invited.
Heather stops by Meghan’s to try to get her to invite Shannon to the party. Meghan is not having it. I am dumbfounded by why the baseball guy married this little bitch. She’s not attractive, she has a horrid personality and she’s dumb as a box of rocks. She must be a head doctor.
Tamra is getting her makeup done at Vicki’s and Tamra looks weird with no makeup. She has no real eyelashes at all. Vicki calls Meghan to tell her she is not coming to her party. She is going to take Shannon out to dinner.
At one point in history did women stop knowing how to do their own hair?
Jim really lights up around Meghan’s sister. I’m just saying. He tells Meghan to have her sister fix her hair that she just hired someone to do because her sister is “really good at hair stuff.” #SideEye
Holy Moly! Jim’s ex-wife LeAnn (v 1.0)is at the charity event. Meghan is quite friendly toward her to her face, but in her talking head Meghan says that LeAnn’s colon cancer is not getting better, it’s getting worse. HOWEVER, on LeAnn’s Facebook page, she announced she was cancer free in like 2012 with no further mention of cancer. So either LeAnn has had a relapse or Meghan is LYING ABOUT SOMEONE HAVING CANCER. Wow. Now Heather is saying in her talking head that LeAnn is “dying of cancer.”
I wish Lizzie was a fulltime housewife.
Shannon and Vicki have cocktails and dinner at Tortilla Republic in Laguna Beach. They definitely got the better scene. Shannon seems to think she should have gotten a call saying she is not invited to her party. Oh Shannon. Shannon cries. Shannon is just a mess this season due to the issues with David and someone needs to run interference for her with the cunt satchel.
Meanwhile, Meghan is terrible at giving speeches. And I HATE people having charities to “spread awareness” about things like, in this case juvenile diabetes. Your charity spreads awareness for those rare diseases that no one has ever heard of, you raise funds for things like diabetes and cancer to help find a cure or better treatment. #PetPeeve
At Meghan’s function, Heather and Tamra are sitting alone away from the guests having a staged conversation about Shannon being excluded. At a party with over a hundred guests, Meghan waits for production to cue her to interrupt. And she does, asking “Hey, are you guys talking about me not inviting Shannon?”
Lizzie bails on the boring party to go to Laguna Beach and Tamra takes the opportunity to jump ship too! Tamra and Lizzie came in starving because there was no food at the charity event. Shannon is happy that her friends stuck up for her. There was a man sitting at the bar with the ladies. Who was that? Lizzie’s husband?
Next week: Vicki and Tamra have a spa day. Shannon and whatsherface continue to bicker. And Vicki gets a very upsetting phone call that I believe is telling her that her mother died.
I caught 15 minutes of this fake drama. You are right, for someone so smart, Heather is clueless. There should be a store where people like her can buy humanity. Or a charity devoted to helping people learn compassion. Tamra is as usual an uneducated snake. And who is this unlikeable Meghan?. It’s interesting that those three found each other to like. Must be a lowest common denominator thing. Just ewww. Ick. Yuck. And nasty. Done for the season. Thanks for taking one for the team in recapping this. Oh and my brothet has lymphoma, the cancer that Brooks has. Highly treatable but known to recur. Best wishes to him on his path to recovery.
Meaghen is the stick figure with no soul, cut from the same cloth as Heather. You can’t teach compassion ans empathy unfortunatly, only how to fake it. I so so loved that Vickie ditched the party in favor of supporting Shannon. Thats what good friends do, watch and listen Tamra. I was appalled that Heather, as a doctor’s wife no less, announced that Jim’s ex was dying of colon cancer. And said it to garner more sympathy for Meaghen. Very intrusive and callous to make a statement like that about someones private health . Does the woman consider herself to be dying? Maybe shes still considering herself to be fighting it. Anyway, I would have much rather been drinking at the bar with Shannon and Vickie than been at that lame party for Meaghen the ruthless social climber to make her big orange county splash.
Yes, I love that Vickie was loyal her without a doubt and without being asked. I would have done the exact same thing. She also showed class in politely calling Shannon to explain why she wouldn’t be there. Leave it to Tamra and Heather to chalk that up to Vickie putting herself in the middle. It’s called true friendship and loyalty, you hyenas.
Correction
*politely calling Meghan (I didn’t sleep last night)
And, yes, Heather and Meghan truly seem to be vapid and without souls. Heather can at least speak with intelligence and fool people a bit longer. Meghan puts all doubt out of your mind the minute she opens her mouth.
I agree with you 100% Janet! The fact that Heather said Jim’s x was DYING of cancer was so bad!!! So mean!
Yet she was and did….hmm go figure
Heather is fugly.
I am voting for Meghan as most annoying housewife ever. She looks like a swizzle stick with a Barbie head stuck on it. Her husband can’t stand being near her. She must have really bad breath. ‘I am not inviting Shannon to my party for Shannon’s own good.’ WTF?? I can’t wait for Vicky to take her down. It has to happen.
I love Terry Dubrow on Botched. He is smart, funny, courageous, empathic. Then he is around this creature, his wife…Why Terry, Why??? Their house is going to be really big and really ugly.
Tamra is so happy that someone else gets to be the mean girl. Didn’t she have eye lashes during her breast thing?
I am like Vicky more and more. Loved that she bailed on the damn party. Vicky and Brooks have an interesting relationship.
Fucking rich people and their fucking expensive wine and teeny food. What a boring party.
‘Oh my husband–I forgot his name–has a friend somewhere with a kid who has diabetes and it’s like…really sad.’ Okay, done talking about Ms. Swizzlestick.
Heather is a creature from another galaxy. She is not human. She doesn’t even look human. I bet she has implanted some weird chip into Terry to get him to marry and impregnate her. The pacifier is a breathing device! The house is a landing center for the attack from outer space!!
I want Lizzy full time too.
At least Shannon got to go out and have fun. That made me happy.
@lisamia – Shannon doesn’t know how to have fun.
Well, she seemed pretty close to happy with Vicky. Weird, I used to hate Vicky–now I am really liking her.
Vicky just had to get away from Tamra and her family (particularly that daughter and son-in-law) to become likable again. She is loyal, compassionate and knows how to have fun. More importantly, she has appropriate human responses so tends to root for the victims like comforting Alexis and now Shannon.
Yveline-good insight- that getting away from Tamara has been good for Vicki. I really was impressed that she stood by Shannon.
Yup, Meghan wins most annoying housewife hands down. I have an almost visceral reaction to seeing her face and hearing her voice. I think Jim feels the same. I’ve seen Shannon have her share of fun, I’d just like to see more of it for her sake. I think she has a great sense of humor except when it comes to David and then she’s lacking in the humor department.
The first couple of episodes I couldn’t see past my hatred of Tamra Judge to adequately hate Meghan. Well, that’s over now. My recap of this episode is: Meghan Edmonds is a cunt. I never thought I’d hate someone more than I hate Tamra but along came Meghan. And production obviously shares my (our) opinion. I love how they juxtapose her idiotic talking heads with footage completely contradicting what she just said.
Meghen is the kind of HW that I ‘hate to hate’. Already. Right off the bat and I TRIED not to. I really did try and check her out for a while and find SOMETHING about her that I could like, but I haven’t, and don’t think that I really will, because I skipped over the whole ‘love to hate’ part. Like @MissMissy, I get a very uncomfortable visceral reaction to her face and voice, and it’s not much fun looking at her, or seeing her lousy personality. So, WTF, Bravo?! Why they would demote Lizzie and her foine husband, and bring on Meghen and Jim, the TWO stick figures (thanks @janet) with zero personality and as wooden as hell, completely escapes me.
You are so right. Jim seemed to detest his wife and I keep wondering why he married her if he finds her so disgusting.
Heather looks like the girl from Animaniacs. I think her name was Daisy
Heather reminds me of Morticia Adams, especially the way she crosses her arms in her scene intros. Nit a fan of Meghan either…. Pretty sure Andy was trying to make his own “basketball wives”ish show, only with baseball players wives, since there was Katie Hamilton and MKE.
“Fucking rich people and their fucking expensive wine and teeny food.”
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!! It’s true! Their food is portioned out in milligrams!
I miss Lizzie too! She would totally mop the floor with Meghan. But gracefully. Like a lady.
I think Heather and Terry just have a business relationship at this point. I don’t think there is passion there. I think that is why Heather appears so cold and greedy.
Almost every episode, Heather makes a big stink about how she doesn’t want the huge fancy house but she’s doing it for Terry. Ok, Heather. Whatever you say. >
Heather needs a huge fancy house to fill a huge fancy void!
Best post everrrrr!!! ROTFLOL!
Thanks, soncee 🙂
Terry Dubrow is a better actor than his wife. He does the manner well. But I remember last season when he joined with his wife in the attack of cruelty against Shannon. I was shocked because he is a physician, and it was obvious that Shannon was having a serious emotional reaction to their cruelty. Terry is very good at performing Mr. Nice Guy doctor, but he is every bit as shallow as his wife.
Agreed! Very hard to forget once people show you their true colors. Some seriously hideous hearts those Dubrows revealed to us.
@rozanna yep!!!! And did anyone see how he was looking at Shannon’s husband with daggers ,in the last episode .? Maybe he’s jealous of his looks . Terry is no looker , he should let Paul make him pretty .
I agree. I could not watch the episode where Terry Dubrow is yelling at David about “telling my wife to spread her legs…” with children present, etc.
WHO THE F CARES?
Yes, I vote for Meghan being the worst housewife ever. Vicky is turning me towards her also because she has Shannon’s back. Shannon does have fun with Vicky, becasue Vicky isn’t out to get her.
The only other housewife I hated this quickly was Carlton. If I heard Meghan talk about making a splash in the OC one more time I was gonna scream (actually I think I did scream at the TV). In the past I was not a big fan of Vickie’s pronouncement that newbies should sit down and shut up but now I’m beginning to think it appropriate- especially in Meghan’s case-she’s a selfish, entitled bitch who obviously watched past seasons and has Heather whispering nasty things in her ear about Shannon..
I’m renovating my house since April and it’s hard not to become obsessed with it -the pressure, mess and cost-over runs but I’d never, never discuss how much I paid for my bathrooms etc with anyone but a close friend/family. Tacky tacky Heather. As much as Heather doth protest, this house is a monument to both their egos.
“This house is a monument to their egos.” Well said!
she has avatar neck!!!
@lisamia lol!
OMG….Too funny!! Spot On!!
Does anyone know why they got rid of Lizzie? I liked her too. Why get rid of her and then take on someone like Meghan??
TT, I love your recap and agree…..she just sucks. Clearly all the nice and sane women know better than to put themselves on tv. This is all Bravo can get now…….
I’ve been feeling a bit crazy lately and could use a new head doctor.
You’re married. Or will be very soon. Perhaps you can hire a head doctor or two for the bachelor party.

You should have MJ from Shahs of Sunset plan your bachelor party. She knows how to throw together a real bacchanal.
Is it just me or did she get butt implants?? Not that there’s anything wrong with it…
What I find interesting is that there are WAY more comments about the show we DON’T LIKE than RHONY which was actually pretty good last night.,,,

OMG, funny. Phadrea, no?
How did your comment slip by without hysterically comments?
Why yes TT! I too think that Meghan must be a “head doctor” and a damn good one at that! I don’t know if that double entendre was intentional or not but I choaked on a pecan while reading it.
OF COURSE it was intentional! Applied to Phaedra and now Meghan.
I should have known it was intentional. I thought I was finally moving beyond “newbie status” here but obviously not. Baby steps…
If she’s such a head doctor, then why is he so cranky all the time? Call me crazy, but the idea of getting blown by a praying mantis with a massive, swollen jaw doesn’t sound sexy at all. Having been bulimic in the past, I can totally see how it would be good practice for that sort of thing, though.
She does have a head like a praying mantis LOL!!!! OMG Perfect!
LMAO, Minky! Praying mantis nailed it. Maybe he didn’t want to kiss her lips cause she just blew him. Also …. like many of you, I miss Lizzie. I had forgotten until her talking head how simply gorgeous her eyes are. And she’s as smart as she is beautiful…
Hehehe i just spat my coffee out … Praying mantis is a perfect description! What a vile girl, doubt that marriage will last long. What about when she referred to the house as being “our house”. She has only been married for 5 minutes and everything is hers.
Do not like her at all.
Oh and most important, thanks for the recap, TT! <3
Meghan. To me she’ll always be the FNG. Fucking New Girl.
Ha ha! Love it! Is the F in FNG a verb or an adjective? I’m so totally not a grammarian. My mother simply calls the F-word “The Verb”.
In this case it’s an adjective. But on some occasions it could be both. Not a verb with her husband it seems.
If you are really in it to be charitable, isn’t refusing to invite Shannon kind of counterproductive?
And stupid. Stupid, stupid, stupid. You run a charity like a business, okay. The goal is to make money. You can’t do that by alienating people. That’s just basic! Smile, nod, collect the checks, and STFU!
I also noticed that Jim really lit up around Meghan’s sister…. Hmmm. Wouldn’t THAT be interesting..
Dislike Meghan greatly, so many reasons, just can’t…
She truly is one of those people where it’s hard to know where to start. So many reasons…I can’t find one redeemable thing about here.
Agreed.
Well that’s it then, Bravo! We all want Lizzie back and Meghan out!
Yes, the man at the bar with the ladies at the end was Lizzie’s husband, the delicious Christian Rovsek.
Isn’t he dreamy?!!! One of the best looking husbands in the franchise, IMO.
I think he is the best looking. His smile is sexy.
He reminds me of Luke Wilson. I laughed so hard in the episode last season where he was doing his hair and making all the little wisps stick out perfectly randomly. It looks effortless but it’s not!
I’ve been waiting for the TT recap all day – yay! I know how you feel about Meghan and I like that you have sympathy for Shannon. I needed to read someone who was going to validate how I felt after watching such an awful display of bullshit. Meghan Edmonds has got to be THE worst housewife ever – and that is some steep competition. I’m getting to the point where if I’m talking to someone else about this show and they don’t dislike Meghan but choose to rip on Shannon…I can’t trust their judgement. There is so much to hate there, I don’t even know where to begin…doubting Brooks’ cancer for some really idiotic reasons…confronting Shannon for a misunderstanding…her b.s. that she’s trying to protect Shannon from herself…her entitlement attitude, complaining about “raising a 17 year old” …the entire conversation she had with her assistant, her weird smirks. She is stupid, mean and repulsive. I feel like I’m watching some caricature of a villain in a movie.
Love that you noticed how Jim lit up around his sister-in-law. I noticed that right away in stark contrast to how he acts around his wife. Her sister is pretty and probably less annoying…although she has that same weird twitchy smirk.
I like Katie Hamilton so far. Love that she rolled her eyes at Meghan’s announcement of not inviting Shannon, love that she tried to genuinely comfort Shannon in Napa. Her and Lizzie are sweethearts. I wish Meghan was the one going through a divorce instead of Katie. Meghan’s time will definitely come – unless she really is some villain from a Disney movie and that’s how she made Jim marry her. You know the one who hypnotizes the prince in The Little Mermaid and makes herself look and sound like a brunette Ariel but then is unmasked as the evil, hideous Ursula. I don’t think he’s a gem, but there’s still no other reasonable explanation for why he married this thing.
Does anyone else wonder why Jim’s first wife gets along with Meghan? Is she just putting on a front for the good of her daughter? Or, is it because they share a mutual hatred of Jim’s second wife in the middle of them?
Or, in all fairness, perhaps Jim is one of those jocks who can’t keep it in his pants? Some men are done after the conquest. It just feels a little icky watching them. I know it doesn’t change her, but it might explain how she got here. It wasn’t charm.
Trophy wife. Period. However, Meghan’s not so much a trophy as she is a booby prize. You can see the wheels turning in Jim’s shallow ass head. He realizes that he won a whoopee cushion at a carnival or something.
Ha, true. Still confused as to why they marry these ones. She would probably be proud to be considered a “trophy wife” without really realizing people are laughing at their joke of a marriage.
My feelings about Meghan exactly, the worst housewife ever, extremely steep competiton! Exactly, run don’t walk from a person who defends Meghan and rips on Shannon!
There is also that clenched jaw way of talking that she has. I do hate her.
(I just re-read the commenting rules and realized that I used the word “hate” twice in this blog. I don’t really hate Meaghan, just exaggerating – I guess).
we can hate people here. It’s just the people who hate everyone and everything comment after comment after comment that are annoying. 🙂 This is not a blog about hating everything. But we do have small moments of sparing hatred from time to time as appropriate.

Meghan sniping that she doesn’t want Shannon in her house sounds just like the popular mean girl in Junior High about who can sit with her at the lunch table.
Many pro ball players have stunted personalities, like around 15 years old.
So does she!
Many comments on other sites allude to Meghan being Jim’s beard (from St. Louis posters).
That would make a lot of sense. But you must be DEEP in the closet to decide that living with that shrew is less miserable than whatever the ramifications are of coming out. Especially now. It’s not 1950 anymore, Gay is the new black and shit.

Steroids? Maybe? Jim is an attractive man. I’ll give him that But, his personality makes him look a horror to me.
I was wondering if he was broke and that was why they needed the show?
@tamara . Bwhahhahahaha!
Jim’s ex-wife looked pretty damn healthy for someone who is (allegedly) dying.
But she looked like she was wearing a wig so…
She went thru cancer, being married to Jim & now having to deal with that cunt Meghan. She really deserves a better wig.
Lmao
Lol
This is an episode where production interference just defies logic. If I were Shannon, after the way Meghan treated me in Napa, wild horses couldn’t drag me to her party. Why would I want to go? For more insolence and condescension? It doesn’t make sense to be so upset at being “excluded”.
Did anyone else notice, in Napa, Shannon coming out of the bathroom after she stormed off? David had been in there too. It looked…interesting.
I can only assume that Meghan is a head doctor, has a trick pelvis (as Joan Rivers would say), or is a beard. She certainly has a very ugly soul.
Tamra with no make-up looked very much like her mother, and that’s not good.
I noticed that, too. You are right; looking like the mother is NOT a good thing.
Her mother looks pretty good for a woman who is about to become a great grandmother.
I thought the exact same thing!
@ericzku Are you doing a “Brandi” and accusing them of going to the bathroom to do crystal meth?!!!!! How dare you?!!!! LOLOLOL!
David put something back in her purse. A flask of vodka, bottle of pills or something innocent? The editing of that whole part was messed up. They showed Shannon leaving the bathroom where David was with her. Then they showed her walk past Eddie and Terry. Then the next shot David is standing next to Eddie and Terry and they act like Shannon just walked by. Bad editing.
She’s had a bad eye job-she’s beginning to looks Asian (no offense to Asian people). For someone who works out every day, her arms have very little definition…yeah, I’m being a picky bitch-I’m tired and cranky.
@the Lady Cocotte .
Shannon has David and Vicki has Brooks, so why did Vicki have to take Shannon out to dinner the night of the charity event so that Shannon wouldn’t feel left out? Where were David and Brooks? Why didn’t they all go out together?
Brooks isn’t well & Shannon doesn’t really enjoy being around David right now so I think a girls night makes total sense.
Because, girlfriends.
This.
Agree-it also looked like much more fun then the charity event-I love that the other women showed up to support her-made Meghan look even worse.
Yes – love that happy ending with Shannon and the girls. Yay for Vickie and Lizzie. Tamra…well, did anyone notice the different version she gave to Meghan? She made it sound like Vickie was texting everyone begging them to come out to Laguna. Reality: Lizzie said she wanted to join them in Laguna, she told Tamra she was going and Tamra jumped at the chance to leave Meghan’s event.
I miss Lizzie, I also wish she was around full time. I just can’t deal with all Shannon’s issues, she needs to not be on this show right now. Meghan would have looked far better had she invited Shannon and let it all go, but she is attempting to assert herself as an equal. That is just my opinion. As for Jimmy, he is hard to read, i almost think he is not comfortable with her or them being on the show, like he is awkward or something. I am not nor have i ever been a Brooks fan, he is shady but Vickie loves him and she has protected herself financially so she is a big girl. Vickie supporting Shannon was a very nice thing to do, i probably would ahve done the same thing for a friend, and for the party to move to Laguna is a giggle. Tamra is still a cunt
Jim and MKE remind me of Kelsey and Camille Grammer, like he is giving her this opportunity (or parting gift) as something to do while he’s in StL doing something (or someone) else before the big divorce comes.
I hate Meghan and the fact that Jim is affiliated with the Cardinals embarrasses me as a fan. Possibly she is a beard as my husband said there had always been rumors about him. Did anyone notice that she called her assistant (seems more like a housekeeper to me) her “pet” while petting her head? What a bitch
I hope Jim Edmonds actually comes out and says he’s embarrassed by his wife’s behavior and is immediately filing for divorce. I wonder what the other baseball wives think of her.
Yes, I saw her do that to her assistant, and in front of a group of people. She acts like she was brought up under the porch or something. She has no social skills and is dying to show herself off in the limelight.
Jim does seem to like his SIL best. He even smiled.
I did notice David exiting the bathroom with Shannon, as mentioned by Eric. It made me wonder if she had called him in to listen to her tale of woe. Could they really be joined at the hip and much of their marriage issue is for the drama?
Yes I did notice that and I found that so degrading calling her a pet…I do not like mehgan at all
Haha-I noticed Jim’s eyes brighten up, too, when his mentioned his wife’s sister.
Dayam! I’m so annoyed I didn’t pick up on that like so many of you have done, and now I’ve deleted that episode.
I haven’t quite gotten around to hating Meghan- yet. I’m getting there though. She’s coming on strong. I’m still struggling with Shannon. I didn’t much care for her last season and that’s lingering for me this season, too. Shannon nags too fucking much and I see signs of batshit crazy trying to peek out. Yes, her husband cheated and I hate it for her kids but she chose to stay with him. So, suck it up buttercup.
I was starting to think I was alone in my dislike for Shannon. I didn’t like her last season and I still don’t like her this season. She just seems to suck the air out of the room. I liked the fact that the Meagan didn’t invite that freakazoid Shannon.
Ok after reading all the hate on M I’m just going to jump right in and tell you what I think of this hot mess. M called S and S acted like a tool! Can’t tell me she didn’t know who was calling as she claims and big deal .. M called her for advice and to prob get to know S over something they could maybe bond over. S was rude plain and simple and M new exactly that S was blowing her off and called her out on it. S could have acted like a grown up and said yep was a bad day whatever.. How can I help you but no once again plays the victim and acts like an entitled ” I make charities” raving bat shit crazy woman that she is! I think M handled her fine and was upfront and clear about how she handled it and why! Why invite that to a charity event. So S can start more drama with a full audience! Yep M is younger than the others and a pretty girl so what doesn’t mean she has to put up with that self obsessed moron that fakes her own funeral for attention from her husband! Really grow up S! David has left the building! Can this guy not go anywhere with his wife and not get told off like a 2 year old or watch his wife miserably walking off like a sour grape! Now onto Jimmy.. Aghr!! Does this guy have a personality .. Please buy one!!!
@Tam-
Thank God… I thought I was losing my mind for a minute! We were typing at the exact same time and I agree with you!
So completely agree. Shannon a cuckoo. Her BS about her private line and how she would have been nicer if she was expecting the call. Really? Does she get a heads up on every call that comes in?
I rather enjoyed watching Meghan not let Shannon get away with her crap in Napa. No one accused Shannon of being uncharitable, she was rude on the phone and called out for it. Even Shannon admitted she ignored Meghan’s text to clear things up. Shannon needs therapy, drugs and a divorce.
Everything that has come out of Megan’s mouth has offered me. Especially the way she flatly says that her husbands ex wife’s cancer isn’t getting better, it’s getting worse. I have the same feelings about her as everyone else. She’s is a bitch looking to make her mark as a rich bitch. She’s coming on way way way too strong and the way she spoke to Shannon in Napa was just .. Wow. That’s a real bitch. She’s a vapid, soulless ,stupid girl . She is a piece of work and I really , really can’t stand her. When Heather made the statement about Jim’s ex ” dying with cancer ” I was so shocked that I started to rewind and make sure that’s what she said but I thought surely she must’ve said ” dealing” with cancer. I can’t believe how callus both these women are being to this poor woman.
Yes, yes, yes!
Yes, spot on! I just can’t relate to people who root for Meghan and then rip Shannon apart. Seems like a lack of compassion. I think people with normal amounts of empathy will have a visceral reaction to Meghan and be repulsed by her…or at the very least just feel something just isn’t quite right with her.
Wait ! You said M is a pretty girl!? She’s literally the ugliest HW in OV history. If someone I’ve met once lied about getting my number and then asked a random question that didn’t pertain to me I would be confused too! M didn’t even give S the right effing name bc she’s too stupid to realize she got married! Shannon is smart (maybe a little crazy) but she’s not dumb enough to work w someone careless and rude like M.
@ Tam.. There are rules dear, and you’re breaking them . You don’t want a tongue lashing from Tamara
I like Shannon but I must admit she can’t be any fun to live with. She can’t help the way she is but she is just morose.
Okay- what planet am I on?
I am so confused! I don’t think I have missed an episode, and I love you guys, but Shannon is an emotional wreck.
I am not crazy about Meghan, but I don’t find her nearly as bad as some of the other housewives.
I thought Shannon was a complete fucking nut job when Meghan asked for her advice. She just went off and stormed to the bathroom. Honestly, I wouldn’t want her in my house if she did that to me. I didn’t get Shannon’s violent reaction to that and I still don’t. Meghan may have been nervous, not very clear about why she was calling, etc. but I really don’t think she had that coming from Shannon.
And what is with all these fucking yentas getting right into the thick of it. Calling from the party, Stirring the pot… So ridiculous!!
Anyway, I understand why she didn’t invite Shannon. However, that will catch up with her… You know it. These bitches don’t let anything slide.
Also, last week I liked Heather better. This week I hate her again. Is it her arrogance? The fact that she is discussing all the financials of building this ungodly expensive house? I don’t know… But I am finding that really obnoxious!!!
Bring Lizzie back and check Shannon into a state hospital.
Haha Pip .. Loved your comment.. I just had to write something cos I am thinking .. What the hell is going on here!!
Pip—you be funny.
It seems that people feel verrrrry strongly about the Mehgan/Shannon dynamic. They elicit strong responses in a very defined manner…seems either Team S or Team M.
Personally, I find them both to be short some marshmallows in their box of Lucky Charms.
Shannon will start doing her emotional Hokey -Pokey dance at the drop of a chapeau. Good God, she reacted like a 13 year old who wasn’t invited to a slumber party. “But I’ve already bought a dress”! OH, THE HUMANITY!
And Meghan? YIKES….Don’t even get me started on that freaky little ferret .
I agree, Maisey-
I don’t find either all that appealing. But I can’t come down on Meghan simply because Shannon acted like a LUNATIC when Meghan spoke to her about the charity event.
That was on Shannon… All the way.
It’s early yet, so we don’t know Meghan that well. However, she is coming off pretty badly right off the bat. I don’t see her as “soulless” or how others have described her. But there is arrogance there and she does seem materialistic and shallow.
I’m Team Nobody on this one.
“Freaky little ferret.” Hysterical, Maisy. Really. >
The real question is : why would that idiot call Shannon in the first place? She needed advice ? What with a full staff of event planners her sister and her pet ?? If she wasn’t told by production to call Shannon she’s a retard .
“She must be a head doctor.” Bwaahahaha! Maybe *that’s* why her throat — I mean neck — is so freakin’ long!
I have to admit that I did giggle at the following exchange between Shannon and Meghan (paraphrased):
Shannon: If I had known it was you, I…
Meghan (interrupting): You would have been nice?
Game, set, match.
Perfect!!!
Ha!! So true!
Can we please address how Megan on cue hangs up with Jim and says “Jim just bought me a Louis?” and then after the “charity event” she says something about being on the OC map now? BARF! Please donate your brain to science then I’d find one redeeming quality.
Gross.
There’s something about Megan that’s different than your average bitchy housewife. She truly is just repulsive. im actually having trouble describing all the reasons I hate her. She’s like a robot who’s been programmed to the super bitch mode. Someone turned the dial all the way up!
Yes! Love this: “She’s like a robot who’s been programmed to the super bitch mode. Someone turned the dial all the way up!” Ahhhhh.
The pattern here seems to be people saying they can’t even begin to describe all the things about Meghan that bother them, or they hate to hate her, are repulsed by her.
Yes, Vicki! She’s good people, and I’m liking her more and more. Tamra does look like E.T. without her spackling. And Meghan looks like an android. I really don’t like Heather.
Is it okay for me to say that I don’t like charities like this in general? I just can’t get over people like Meghan putting events like these together just to advertise their business, network and socialize in the name of some innocent sick or poor people who probably aren’t going to be helped at all from any of the collected money.
It is just very blah. I used to enjoy Orange County a lot but something seems off. Everyone but Vicki & Lizzy seem depressed or something. I get a bad vibe watching it.
It really feels like the marriages in this show are in a lot of trouble or just over with the exception of Lizzy. Its icky to watch.
Also Vicky has never looked happier or more beautiful. Go Vicki!
i don’t have alot to add – just that Megan makes me a little ragey. I hated the way she approached Shannon when Shannon went to sit with the other other ladies in Napa. She was very invasive and disrespectful. Like she was going to FORCE SHANNON TO LOOK AT HER. I literally wanted to slap the crap out of her and I swear I’m not a violent person. I’ve often likened Heather to a calculating mean girl but Megan is something more than that. She’s got this almost feral quality or something. Bitch makes me nervous. She’s similar to Tamra but less animated. Like the soulless fembot version of Tamra Judge
I’m LOVING Vicki for some reason this season. She’s like a “white trash” lady with a heart. I really appreciate her loyalty to Shannon. Shannon is a nut but she’s a sweet person. I like how Vicki brings out Shannon’s playful and fun side. That’s what I want to see more of on my screen: Kooky playful silly Shannon. Not angsty anxious angry Shannon
Meghan revealed her stupidity when she was berating Shannon on the couch in front of the other ladies. Meghan had them eating out of the palm of her hand with the whole “I didn’t do anything at all and she flew off the handle” story, she should have left it at that. But she let her raging bitchiness take over and left no question in anyone’s mind who was in the wrong.
Good in Vicki. You don’t see a lot of acts of good friendship on these shows, but Vicki was solid.
You’re right. Vicki has been a true friend to Shannon The few times Shannon has had fun on the show were with Vicki.
“(Meghan is)…Like the soulless fembot version of Tamra Judge.” Yes! And, I think people who do have souls are tending to feel very uncomfortable (or “ragey” watching her – something very off there. I even hated the way she started over-anunciating certain words when confronting Shannon in front of the other ladies. So patronizing and strange.
I hate OC. Why oh why do I watch it? Meghan may be the deciding factor for me. I can stand the rest of them, but three major bitches is just too much for one show.
TT, absolutely dying at meghan’s “alleged husband” lmao. Seriously, he has ice in his veins towards her, I see no sign of love, affection at all…he barely looks as if he can tolerate her. I sympathize.
And what’s up with her nonsense about “raising a 17 yr old ” full time, her stepdaughter? she’s nearly an adult. you’re some johnny come lately floozy who married her dad and is basically closer to being her peer, I can’t imagine she wields much authority in that house, especially with jim talking to her like she’s 5. (which I understand, as she behaves that way)
Her speech was painful to listen to, as are most of her conversations with the women. I cringe. She got some combative with Shannon when she told her side, she acts like shannon walking away abruptly and ending the convo was some HUGE dramatic outburst that stopped everyone in the party cold. No. She’s trying way too hard and is already under my skin in more ways than I can stand. I can’t fathom I was this way at 30, mayyyybe 20 but even then I was never so obnoxious. Girl needs to grow up.
As I read your comment, it occurs to me more and more that there is something not quite right about Meghan’s whole set up – the cold husband, the 17-year-old child substitute, etc. etc. Maybe time will tell, but probably not.
Anything that can be attributed to her age is just a speck on top of the mound of whatever personality/character issues she has going on. I’m not much older than Meghan, still in my 30s and am stunned by her lack of maturity, empathy and social skills.
She chooses to confront Shannon in the midst of an otherwise nice party and then says Shannon can’t control her emotions and had an outburst. Heather and Tamra got this ball rollin last year and have really convinced people that Shannon taking sternly, Shannon raising her voice even slightly, Shannon stickING up for herself = Shannon freaking out (or “needing an ambulance”). I wish Bravo would stop showing that clip from last year where Shannon had her “melt down” – has anyone noticed that above Shannon’s voice, much more loud and shrill is Tamra screeching, “Stop it!” repeatedly in that clip? The other women always interfere with Shannon just trying to walk away and then they escalate everything.
After seeing how Jim was looking at ME’s sister, I hope she doesn’t end up getting “Kelsey Grammared”….wow! He acts like she makes his skin crawl when she comes near him.
OT I know but I simply cannot stand to see Heather carrying that toddler around. After the first episode where the kid had a pacifier in her mouth I’ve been totally grossed out. What are they doing to this child?
OMG! I thought the same thing. That kid was WAY to big to be carried around.
That pacfier makes me crazy.
The kindest thing both Shannon and Meghan can do for their husbands is to let them go.
To each other.
I have a feeling Jim and David would both have a happier life with each other.
I must admit I didn’t understand the Meghan loathing until this week. Of course, I don’t have any sympathy for Shannon, so that colored my opinion. After this week, I can’t stand any of them. Officially over the OC. That leaves RHONY as the last Bravo show I watch.
Now that Nene and Brandi are gone, I might try those two shows. They will be very different without those two. But I agree. I think I am done with OC.
I had no clue I’ve been so rude to people I don’t know, when they call me. I’ve responded just like Shannon did. I didn’t see a dang thing wrong with the way Shannon talked to Megan, can someone clue me in? I still say Megan is doing Heather’s dirty work. Megan had no reason to call Shannon, (no food anyway) or go on the attack. She’s Heather’s weapon to take the Beador’s down.
Her pose reminds me of Brandi, I think it is how much taller she is. She was hard to watch
Agreed. Shannon wasn’t trying to say she’s some big huge deal because she has a private phone number, just that she has a private phone number probably for the sole reason of avoiding calls from random people. I think it’s reasonable to think if a friend or acquaintance is going to give your number out to someone else, they should run it by you first. I would. I don’t give my friend’s numbers out to others unless I know a) the person already had it and lost it 2) I’ve checked with them. In today’s day and age, people can be very protective about their information, I respect that. Meghan just wanted to distort everything shannon said to make her look crazy. That alone would drive me batshit lol
Feels like Heather, Meghan and sometimes Tamra are gaslight in Shannon again to make it sound like everything she says is crazy. Shannon probably should have just kept focusing on the fact that she didn’t know who was calling and thought it was a telemarketer. I totally get the private cell phone thing, but when she mentions it more than once it gives the bi-otches something to twist and use against her.
If Shannon didn’t recognize the number, and it was from St. Louis, why did she answer the phone? Or am I the only one who doesn’t pick up if it isn’t someone she knows or a call she’s expecting?
I think that is a very interesting insight you have breelee, about Meghan being there to help Heather “take the Beadors down”. The way Heather said that Meghan’s x was “dying of cancer” made me think you are right even more, because it is like they both will support each other in their evil bitchy agendas.
Yup
Breelee, seeing your name made me realise I haven’t seen it for ages, or have I just missed your posts?
Meghan sounds like romy from romy and Michele’s high school reunion.
Let’s not forget, this event was mainly about Meghan putting herself out into society, and maybe a little about the charity or whatever.
From what I can tell, I kind of like the FOH that was supposed to be a Housewife and then something happened with her husband.
I really like Katie Hamilton. Sad that she’s the one getting divorced instead of Meghan. She seems like a class act.
I enjoy the sunny silliness of RHOC. These women’s antics—with production’s fingerprints all of them— amuse me. Yup, easily entertained.
Hey, I don’t pretend I’m watching Masterpiece Theatre here.
But what I don’t get is how an upstart amateur like Meghan could get under anyone’s skin much less send Shannon into another one of her emotional tailspins.
It should be pretty easy to dispatched this tall, nasty little Pez dispenser on feet. Vanderpump would dismiss her with a lovely British-accented remark that little Meghan wouldn’t even get until the drive home. Dorinda would verbally filet her like the annoying little sardine she is.
Shannon should stop the tears, pity party and running to the bathroom. She should flick this little flea away with a single flick of her well manicured finger. And chuckle at her while she is doing it.
I totally agree. She should flattened that little flea by not letting her get under skin, oh well…
Excellent advice.
With any other woman, Shannon could flick em like a flea. But Megan is the one that David fell all over himself over at the “ho” down. Introducing himself but ignoring his wife at his side. Offering a shot/drink to Megan, but not his wife. Then at the winery, Megan had to throw that fact in Shannon’s face.
Deserved or not in Shannon’s eyes, Megan is trouble for her marriage as she knows David is attracted to her. No wife wants the woman their hubby not only flirted with but dissed them in the process, pushing their buttons. That’s why Megan is the perfect weapon for Heather to use against Shannon. I wish Shannon could ignore her, but I get why she cant.
Whenever Heather is on camera it feels to me like she is acting on a sitcom. So fake. It is sickening how much money she and her husband are spending on that house. Is it really necessary to bragg about how much money they are spending on cupboards, bathroom, flooring etc? Im not interested.
I didn’t like Heather insinuating that Shannon was a mess by referring to the time when she shouted at everyone at Lizzie’s party last season (due to all the BS Tamara spread/stirred/made up). I thought that was very underhanded and nasty.
I think Vicki looks beautiful. Whatever she is doing is working for her. What a good friend she is to have blown off meghan the praying mantis’ party. That made me like Vicki even more.
I feel for Shannon, when you have problems at home you are not as strong emotiinally as you normally would be, Plus lets not forget how she was ganged up on last season and already she has the new bitch on her back. I hope she and David are ok. Shannon is a classy woman & she never pushes her wealth down your throat like Heather does.
@fanofTT I agree
well said
I don’t mind Shannon. On a show with people like Vicki and Tamra, at least she’s authentic. BUT she confuses me. She cares SO MUCH about what people think of her, like Meghan insinuating she’s not charitable made her lose her mind, yet she puts her most private family moments out there. It’s baffling to me.
@ Tamara ..Oh my goodness what is the matter with you ? You have me laying here with a headache crying !!!! Lol @ she must be s head dr. I can’t I just Can not with you , ok going back to continue reading
Never mind about the time in history when women stopped knowing how to do their hair . That’s a good thing
I can still do my own hair better than anyone. I’ve been doing it for years. It seems people don’t teach their kids how to even brush or wash hair anymore. Which is good for you.
That said, I’d love for you to do mine, one day!

I can count how many times I’ve had my hair “done” for an event on one hand and I’m 34 lol. I’m just not that fussy. I haven’t found an event yet where wearing my hair down or up in an easy bun that I can do myself, isn’t appropriate.
@tamara it would be my pleasure
Oh and I predict that the next divorce will be Heather ( she looks just like madam the puppet)
It’s always the people who drone on and on about how perfect their life and marriage is who end up divorced
Next will be the old man with the child bride .
He can’t stand her and insults her quite a bit .his daughter can’t stand her either .
I love seeing Vicky and Shannon together!! They seem like sisters! Shannon is fun when someone one isn’t starting unnecessary fights w her!! Like the dumb broad couldn’t even remember her name!! Jim is probably just scared of losing more money after a 3rd divorce! That’s the only reason I can think of why he would stay w that.
And Jim literally lights up whenever he’s not alone w his wife Lol. He little up when Tamra came threw the door too! My gay-dar has always gone off when he’s on camera though but he seems like a genuine soul
Jim clearly can’t stand his new bride Meghan so why the heck did he marry her? Katie rolling her eyes when Meghan was explaining why she didn’t invite Shannon to the charity event. …priceless. is it brooks or LeAnn lying about having cancer.
I don’t know if I can handle tonight’s episode. Even the previews are choking me up. I just can’t with Moms dying. I just can’t.
I feel the same way, Lady Cocotte. Poor Vicky. 🙁
I’m telling you now. DO NOT DO IT. It’s beyond bad. So very heartbreaking. I am trying to stop thinking about it. It’s HORRIBLY SAD.
