Most nights it feels like I have just recapped the previous week’s show. But for some reason, I had no memory of the first part of the reunion until I started pulling photos. It feels like a lifetime between this episode and the last one. We already know the big moment of tonight’s episode when Kim returns Rinna’s baby gift to her in the snottiest way possible. We’ve been talking about it there for days. Let’s just say it’s very hard to find a Kim Richard’s supporter in this situation. There are actually a few people that like, PK from the land down under, but Kim not so much.
It is PK we begin with. Until Erika completely shuts down the conversation. LVP tries to say Erika should have had a sense of humor. Erika tells her to stop with the damn British humor. It’s not working. Amen to that. Andy reads a comment from a view that says that LVP has never gotten over Erika calling her a sniper from the side. As he is reading, my screen is paused on LVP’s very sour expression. The commenter claims that LVP is manipulating PK and Dorit into annoying Erika. For the love of God, can please stop talking about pantygate! Because I am done with the subject.
When they play back scenes from the dinner at PK and Dorit’s rental property, PK and Dorit both look very glassy-eyed. PK says he has never ever done coke. That has to be a lie. Rinna brings up the crude conversations PK and Ken engaged in about Erika at the finale party. PK says that Dorit had just returned from Hong Kong “distraught” and he had a few cocktails and he and Ken were just being naughty. That whole conversation bordered on a certain “grab her by the pussy” comment we’ve heard. As Erika says, “Get the fuck outta here, PK.”
They talk about the ladies jobs. Erika was booked to perform at Christina Aguilera’s birthday party. Kyle has six stores now. Rinna’s HSN clothing line is doing extremely well. Kyle also is a producer of the TV show that she wrote. Erika is back on Y & R again. Dorit talks about her um, businesses. Eileen leads the entire left couch in complimenting Dorit on her swimwear designs and Erika encourages her not to let that go because she has talent. This really pleased Dorit. She just lit up. You can tell she really needs Erika to like her.
It’s time to bring out Kim and Eden. Eden on the left couch at the end and Kim sits next to her sister. Kim admits she went out to dinner with Donald Trump back in 1996. LVP wants to know if she slept with him. Kim doesn’t answer. Wow. I would have denied that even if I had done such a thing during the 90s when I wasn’t thinking clearly.
I can’t wait for the episode of Catfish: Eden & London. We have an Amber Alert that stops the show for a good three minutes. I do not understand this. There is no photo, just a voice over and a screen crawl. I am home watching TV. It’s nighttime and the curtains are drawn. While I am very sorry a child has been abducted, I am not out driving where I might spot the car they described. This makes no sense at all. I suppose it doesn’t matter. This is the most boring reunion episode in history.
The show Kim and Rinna making amends and hugging it out on the show. Kim acts like everything is just fine with them. Then Andy pretends a reader has asked what Kim did with the bunny. And then this happened…
Kim could not give the bunny to her grandson because it had bad energy. Kim actually says that she is all about energy and positive things. Rinna says nothing but a barely audible “okay” and tears up. Then Kim rubs salt in the wound by telling Lisa, “You don’t have to cry over it.” Kim is just mean. I love Eileen cutting off LVP’s stupid comments attempting to make it seem like Kim is somehow being nice. Rinna says that it was Harry who thought the bunny might be a nice gesture. Rinna wasn’t sure if it was a good idea or not. She’s full on crying now. She is not saying anything mean in response to Rinna. When Kyle points out the Rinna is hurt by what Kim just did, Kim say, “I think it is good that your feel bad, because you hurt me.”
Rinna excuses herself from the couch to collect herself. My TV is paused on Kim’s face, and she has the crazy eyes watching Rinna walk away. Eileen goes after Rinna. She says that was a calculated attempt by Kim to hurt and demean Rinna. Meanwhile, Dorit doesn’t seem to know when to keep her stupid mouth shut. She tells Andy that Rinna has been mean to her too. Rinna is all ready to go back in and Kyle sends Kim to explain to Rinna why she is superstitious. That was such a dumb move by Kyle. Then Andy encourages Kim to pick up the bunny on the way to Rinna’s dressing room. What the fuck is wrong with these people? Is Kim suddenly going to not be a cunt on the walk to see Rinna? Andy tells Erika, “That bunny makes me laugh so much.” Yes, Andy, this is a really funny situation. Kim walks up to Rinna like a moron with the bunny and says, “Can I talk to you?” Rinna says, “No” and walks past her. Good for you Rinna.
Next week: Rinna tells Dorit to shut her stupid pie hole. Because someone needed to. Kim tells Eileen that “we’re not acting here, this is real.” We talk about drugs. And LVP cries about Max.
Moral compass. Deny a child a gift yet date Donald. Kim’s energy is so bad nothing will ever fill her black hole soul.
I agree with you, Kim Richards walk around with this I am better then you stick. She talks crap about everyone, and then when it comes back at her it is every ones else’s fault.
Then she makes comments about everyone else’s looks, she need to take a long look in the mirror because she reminds me of one of those fishes that has the big bug eyes.
She is just a nut case, and I will have to say that I do not think that she is sober, and as for the bunny she is just being a vengeful b***h.
If I was Lisa Rena I would take the bunny and give it to someone who will appreciate it, because Kim Richards does not appreciate anything from anyone, accept those people who walk around with blinders on when it comes to her drinking and drug issue * This will say she is not sober, she just pretends to be*
Time for Kin Richards to go back to rehab, one that will assist her and no enable her like her sister does.
No wonder Kim need alcohol, she’s tryng to forget 1996. Pop those pills and drink up. I’m ready to enable her.
Gawd this comment made me giggle.
Thank you for stating that kim pulled a total cunt move. I have voiced this a few times, however most posts I see are all prokim. I’m not a huge fan of Rinna, but kim is/was a total cunt here. She just wants sympathy for being the victim.
Im not pro Kim but dear God, Rinna reminded everyone she was arrested for theft, that she was an alchoholic, spoke about how shes near death and how her family is expecting it but Kim is a cunt for returning a bunny Rinna gifted her??? Lets put things in perspective…i think Rinna played the victim by this fake cry she gave coz of the return of said bunny
^^^This.
100% agree. Rinna is a manipulative mean person. At least Kim has drugs and alcohol as an excuse. So tired of the Rinna/Eileen show. Kudos to PK as well. Erika is coming off as an unforgiving bitch too. Glad this snorefest is almost over.
Well Kim IS ALL OF THE ABOVE #truthhurts when ur an addict in denial.
Exactly, Kim is all those things and has never liked anyone to call a spade a spade. Besides, if she was working a program, and felt she was hurt or slighted by someone, she would know the LAST THING you do is respond in kind.
but she wouldn’t know a program from her own ass, so, there’s that.
I agree 100%
Yes Rinna said all those things about Kim but they are all true, Kim is trash and Lisa took it out for all to see, what Kim did on the reunion was just more trashy classless behavior
I don’t think the tear was fake. It was probably out of frustration from being the only one willing to call Kim out on her $hit, yet because Kim is an expert victim, she turned it on it’s head to make Rinna look bad. Rinna has lived it and in her own way (while not always in the correct manner) she has tried to help them see the light. They (Kim’s family, viewers etc.) don’t want to and because of that they see her as an intrusion and thus turned HER into the bad guy. I have an addict relative and am the lone honest voice in my family….*I* am often vilified for speaking the truth. People do not want to deal with the hard realities when it comes to addiction. As well and unfortunately, people are extremely easily played by the manipulator (which all addicts are). To a reasonable and aware person, that anyone could defend or trust Kim is just beyond…… Andy gets it 100% and that’s why he keeps bringing her back. Why is she at the reunion in the first place? The majority of this shiznet is fake, but again, I think the tear was probably the most honest thing we saw all night.
GOD, SHELLIE-THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
I feel the same way, I really don’t see the need to have Kim part of the show. It is difficult for me to watch Kim. The fact she gave Lisa back the bunny, after saying there is hope for the relationship, Kim did it for show.
As for Eden, I totally hope she is brought back next season, she so abrasive and interjects herself in situations that have nothing to do with her…
Oops, I meant I hope Eden is “not” brought back
Shellie, I agree with you completely about Kim. During this season, Lisa R. explained their family painful ordeals with alcoholism and death and her concerns for Kim. Lisa apologized for telling Eden she didn’t think Kim was really sober and that she was close to death. Kim accepted Lisa’s apologies and it appeared they were both willing to move forward. Then as a lovely gesture, Lisa gave Kim a bunny for her new grandbaby, a bunny that was her children’s when they were babies. For Kim to return this bunny at the reunion show was just plain mean-spirited, disgraceful and unChristian. If she didn’t feel right about accepting the bunny, return it face to face, privately between the two of them or as Eileen said, return it by mail. I don’t understand why Andy keeps bringing her back. Kim brings nothing to the show. It’s time for Andy to end her contract, once and for all.
Ok come on now. Rinna pointing out facts about what Kim has done (during moments of aggression Kim always, and let me be clear, always instigates) does not make it ok for Kim to act in such a vile way. If Kim doesn’t want her bad choices aired on tv, she needs to stop appearing on a reality show. Or stop making bad choices, just saying. But Rinna has not lied about her. So yes, Kim is a cunt.
She did not only attack Kim….
Big flippin deal, so she gave back a cellophane wrapped bunny, so what, its not like Rinna went out special shopping for it anyway.
Agreed. She should give Kim something bc she wouldn’t have made it past the 1st season without her as her storyline. I really think she’s incapable of existing in the reality world successfully bc she not mentally stable enough to control her big flapping lips just like Kim shouldn’t be bc she can’t control her alcoholic temptations. Both of them really should stay away.
I so agree. I can’t stand Kim but I really get it when it comes to Rinna. I mean, she can’t stop herself two seasons since she left but it still is the central theme of Rinna’s storyline. Enough. Quite honestly I wouldn’t blame anyone she keeps doing her “caring”bit for, if they shoved the bunny down her throat. Big deal , take it back and stay away. I don’t even blame her. Can u imagine the bad joujou. Naked Rinna posting herself is a perfect example of a desperate attentionseeker known as Rinna. She no more stable than Kim, just trashy and smarter.
For someone whos motto is “how many fucks do i give zero” Erika sure does give a whole lot of fucks…jesus this pantygate thing is beyond ridiculous and Erika makes it worst along with her goons Rinna and Eileen…
It was uncomfortable but get over it, we ve all gone trough embarassing situations, no point on making over the top mountains out of them…let it go…move on…im sure shes lived trough worst wardrobe malfunction, especially as a performer in skimpy suits
I cant warm up to Erika, i find her abrasive, condescending and rude…
Kyle of season 1 is back…she laughs with dorit while buying the panty, says it may go wrong then says please wait for me so i can see it all while laughing but all of a sudden has to defend her new “friend” Erika who allegedly is a fan favorite and gets snippy with LVP who rightfully reminds her that she found it funny …oh the hypocrisy…
And Rinna crying becoz of that danm bunny? Please…we r back in soap opera land..i think Eileen should have also created a role for her BFF Rinna…that crying scene was soap gold…i may not like Kim but that line about how Rinna lies, cries &denies is right on the money
I even agree with PK who points out that in this group particularly Rinna, everyone says shit, then say they r sorry and everyone moves on and that maybe hes entitled to the same treatment…thats fair
The manufactured drama this season was beyond ridiculous….i guess life is so good in Beverly Hills they have to create stupid stuff…can we just get the glam and grand lifestyle & leave the rest behind?
Yaaaaay ! Someone who gets it! Erika is not nice . I tried to support her on DWTS but she was so stuck up . She’s just not nice!
If you have not read the commenting rules, please do so. TT dislikes text speak. Kim is cunt!
Agree about Erika. Cannot get on board with her. Her wanna be “cool girl-gives zero f*cks” act is so fake and see through. She’s completely humorless, uptight and insecure.
I want to like Erika. I get her upset at pantygate. But she is taking it too far. She’s coming off as an abusive person who’s got a one-up on other people, and she’s not giving it up.
Sometimes I like her a lot but I’m getting a cluster B vibe at times. Beware people with stories of woe about how they’ve been so hurt by others (ie. Bethenny – and I like Bethenny).
If PK had talked about me the way that he talked about Erika,especially on national TV, I would be livid as well.
He implied that a woman who has been married for 20 years is promiscuous and ‘is available to the world’. Then he said that Erika’s marriage is ‘deeply troubled’. PK barely even knows her. He is just making up lies about Erika, then mocking and making obscene jokes about her based on his lies.
Thank you sjp. If I was Erika I wouldn’t speak to either of them ever again!
Patbugg your 100% right!!! Erika told everyone she wasn’t wearing any underwear and then can’t deal with the consequences. She says her stage persona isn’t who she is. She FAKE!!! She fools her fans!!! You can’t have it both ways. She can be as uninhabited in her bedroom but if you want to be looked at as the proper wife of a high profile attorney then don’t put yourself out there performing the songs (that by the way are 5-6 word sentences repeated over and over) with profanity and dressed to portray herself in a trashy image. She can just as well sing and perform in a manner that isn’t putting her husband and son who are in public positions in embarrassing positions among their colleagues, clients and close circle. I have respect for performers like Madonna and Cher to mention a few. Because they think like they perform. Madonna went as far as making a movie and book about her sexuality. Cher never tried to be looked at like a bastion of morality. They truly are who they portray to be when performing. Cher who is a legend didn’t hide her daughter’s sexuality. Yet Erica’s son is a grown man living with her and he’s off limits even to be mentioned on the show. Finally if her husband felt he was owed an apology from PK then he would if went on the show and asked for one. He would have also been by her side to defend her and her behavior. PK did!! She only went on this show to gain visibility when she plays dress up and make believe as someone else. Most people never heard of her stage act before her joining The housewives. Can we put her with the other borrrring, using the show to push their product or singing (not) aspirations like Yolanda etc I’ve already forgotten the past housewives that got fired (that’s how much interest they drew from me) except for Brandy she was a train wreck but she never denied who she was. Eileen should leave as well.
As I’ve said many times before, your husband, his colleagues, and your son knowing you’re a performer and that you wear provocative costumes, etc. and being embarrassed on tv because some lady’s creepy husband said he could see up your dress, “liked the view” and suggested you had done it on purpose, are vastly different things. I don’t understand how people don’t see that.
Obviously she’s fine with all of the above knowing her career, what she is not ok with, was what PK insinuated, that she knowingly flashed him.
I think you mean “uninhibited”. She has never indicated that her husband or son are embarrassed by her job or by her being on the show, and she didn’t say nobody could mention her son, she said is career and life are not topics of discussion because he is a private person, he is not on the show. She never said he can’t be mentioned, she has spoken of him several times.
Erika doesn’t need her high profile attorney husband to sit on a housewives couch and “defend” her, she’s quite capable. I also don’t think he would care if PK apologized or not, but she felt her husband deserved one, hence her request. I see their relationship as one of mutual respect, I think Tom knows she doesn’t need him to run to her side to handle catty woman drama.
I don’t understand why people can’t separate out what was wrong with how PK and Dorit handled this situation. I highly doubt that Erika’s son and husband are embarrassed by her and PK and Dorit DO owe her a sincere apology and then need to drop it.
exactly, justanothermary 🙂
Shae — Everyone from Meryl Streep to the much-mentioned Susan Lucci have acted provocatively as performing artists, and have probably skipped underwear to make certain outfits work. Does that make them whores? Does “Dame Edna” wear dresses and wigs when he’s at home with his wife and kids?
I don’t think you understand AT ALL how entertainment works, and these are not terribly sophisticated concepts to grasp.
I think you’re misunderstanding my point Auntie Velvet, I’m agreeing that an on stage persona has nothing to do with your character and who you are every day.
However Erika dresses or dances on stage, has no bearing on how she expects to be treated as a lady in her daily life, making PK’s behavior unacceptable and the situation very embarrassing for her and Tom.
did you maybe quote the wrong person? because that’s exactly my point…
I’m so sorry — I went back to check who had said that and didn’t scroll far enough. It was Giovanna.
I cannot apologize enough.
No need to apologize, Auntie Velvet 🙂 I was just confused for a moment lol
Let us not forget about the high and mighty LVP and the disgusting remarks her low life husband made to PK concerning Erika ! And while LVP seems to enjoy telling Erika she is over reacting, I bet if these same comments were made about her, neither she or her husband would be laughing.
The longer LVP is on TV, the more her true colors shine ! And they are not pretty.
What Erika chooses to do on stage is Her Choice but when someone peeps through your window it’s not ok and I feel sorry for any woman who has a partner who would behave in such a way because it’s not in any world the way a gentleman behaves
And Rinna’s “do you trust your husband” to Dorit was right on the money. That is exactly the source of Dorit’s tension, she was a little bit jealous I think. I hate Kyle for trying to make it like Rinna did what Kim did because it was completely different.
Talking about her son is off limits because he’s a cop & it could be a problem for him. He’s a cop in LA, not Mayberry!
Patbugg, I agree with absolutely everything you said!!!
Beyond ridiculous
I agree. Your very insightful but great minds think alike!
Kim please move on. I know you like the drama. I know you like the attention. I know you like the paycheck. Please MOVE ON! Rinna was crying because she was emotionally drained. She didn’t even want to give Kim that damn dollar store bunny. I mean I’m sure it cost $80 but that’s beside the point. Girl stop making Rinna your storyline now that your “sober”.
If Rinna is emotionally drained , she has no one to blame but herself! She inserted herself in every situation this season like a tornado !
Agreed…Rinna cannot shut up…shes about ready to do anything for that paycheck so that Harry Hamlin doesnt have to work…well i guess kudos to her…
If Rinna had kept her big fat mouth shut about Kim, Kim would never have become a SL. So for all you Kim haters you have Rinna to thank!
Kim and her issues were a story line long before Rinna was even on the show. Thank her family for enabling her behavior and covering shit up for her.
Say it a little louder for people in the back.
Actually, thank Kyle, since she a) got Kim on the show, and b) outed her alcoholism in the season 1 finale.
OMG…..Kyle did not out her alcoholism!!! It was a well know fact prior to the show airing.
Yep
Soooo true!!!! She does it to find an opportunity to add shock value for herself!!!! Borrrring
Why didn’t they wear pajamas and scuffy slippers to the snoozefest. Lisa Vanderpump is Rip Van Winkle fell asleep along time ago back in the eighties.
If I never hear the word pantygate again it’ll be too soon that said I like Ericka and Dorit has grown on me because she reminds me of season 1 Camille. I think Dorit and Peek a boo K will be back next season.
Good for Kyle not allowing LVP to talk over her. It looks like next weeks she’s finally going to say what should’ve been said years ago which is she is not responsible for her sister’s actions.
With Rinna and Kim I think they’re even. Rinna gives as good as she gets. I don’t support Kim, I am just tired of Rinna’s rage, repent and repeat. If Rinna had not talked so much Kim last season we would not be seeing Kim on our tv screen this season.
Forgot Eden was even on the show. Ok, not really but she is forgettable yet I feel a sadness when I look at her.
Did anyone else notice LVP and her restaurants and Yulin stuff was not part of the working women montage? Or did I miss it? It seemed Andy highlighted all of the women’s careers except LVP.
LVP said last season’s reunion was the worst for her but I think her virtual irrelevance so far this reunion may hurt her more. She’s taken quite a drop from her season 3 status but I still like her on the show.
Agreed about LVP – I think she actually enjoys playing the victim when everyone piles on her at the reunions, and then she milks it for months afterwards telling the press that she “might not return”.
She was so careful this season after getting caught out in her scheming last year, and it made the whole show dull to watch. I almost started to miss Brandi!
I think LVP is probably so happy to not be the center of all the fighting!
I thought that was some good shade on LVP. Everyone else’s work was highlighted.
LVP just got 24 episodes to highlight her work on her own spin-off lol. Frankly, these other heifers could never…..
Part 2 was just as boring as part 1. Unbelievable that it was all about pantygate and bunnygate. Incredibly boring.
Ok, I’m willing to be in a minority of one. I’ll try to defend Kim, just a little bit.
She’s an addict. She’s a mess. She’s in the grip of serious legal and financial problems, and dependent on the charity of her sisters and children (which we know they’ve threatened to withdraw in the past).
Kim would love another comeback next season, and not just for the money. At a reunion a long time ago, I think in 2012 just after rehab, she said that being on the show makes her “feel important”. That showed me how her self-esteem is driven entirely by her career, because that’s what her dysfunctional mother taught her. Her sense of inadequacy as she watches her sister’s star ascend, and she blunders from one court hearing to the next, must be incredibly destructive for someone like Kim.
And – while she’s feeling like that – she has the Bravo producers in her ear, prodding her about the bunny (it was obviously a set-up from the way Andy phrased the question), so she went along with it and staged a silly stunt that someone with less impaired judgment and better self-worth might have refused to participate in.
She’s clearly not blameless, I just think Bravo are the bigger villains in this scenario. They should either axe Kim entirely and leave her to self-destruct, or pay her a full season’s salary if they’re going to make her a storyline all season, and then manipulate her into propping up a deathly-boring reunion that would otherwise have been about Erika’s lady-parts from start to finish.
All that said, I thought Rinna’s reaction to the bunny was insanely disproportionate. She should have thanked Kim, put it aside, and given it no further energy. She needed one of her special smoothies to calm her down, I think!
Good point. If I was rinnabi would have just todded the bunny over my shoulder like who cares
Kim is such an ass. They hugged it out and forgave at the cupcake party. This made Kim look really bad and that evil face – yikes. Kyle sat there like the abused person she is. Vanderpump called this one wrong and glad Eileen spoke out. If anyone kept pantygate going it was Erika. She made up with Dorit and then Erika brought it all up again in Hong Kong. She should’ve just laughed it off if it was a real faux pas, but with her continuing to argue and deflect convinces me she set this up for a storyline. How desperate and embarrassing just for a half ass so-called career.
When they showed the flashback of her from last season totally butt arse naked trying to squeeze into her dance outfit in front of Mikey and co. and an entire Bravo camera crew, it made it pretty obvious all this faux outrage and pearl clutching was for a story line.
I missed the scene from last year when she was trying to come on to another woman’s husband and not respecting her own marriage — because for anyone with ears, that was Erika’s issue.
Who tried to come on to Erica? I must have missed that scene, too.
So true!!! Erica keeps the pantygate thing going because that’s all she can contribute to the show!! Can someone pleassssssse get her off the show ??
Seeing the scene leading up to Kim giving the bunny back to Lisa R. made Kim look worse. They seemed to be in a food place and then…bam! Oh, I am still mad, here is your bunny back. Kim should not have done it but the act secured her return next season. Kim should call it a day and get a job at Target.
“Good” place- I have fat fingers.
Lol, CupcakeScholar, I think we all knew what you meant. I agree that it did look like they were in a good place…. I feel Kim did that for drama
Kim’s eyes were so big because she was waiting on that moment when she sat down. BORING! No one was shocked nor cared about that bunny. Try a megaphone next time. That seems to get a better reaction. It felt like that awkward joke your weird Uncle tells and no one laughs. Then Kyle directs her to explain herself to Rinna. Hahahahahahahahaha!
Kim’s expressions are so fake. Difficult to watch her
I am officially over the whole bunch, the reunion shows are boring and they all seem a little nuts. Ericka dropped the crown and Kyle snatched it. Eileen is nice and is boring. Rinna is Pete and Eileen is repeat sitting on a fence. The season started off with promise but pantygate ruined it, it was just stupid. LVP was irrelevant but she has great parties.
Haha! Pete and Repeat sittin’ on a fence. Pete fell off who was left? Repeat.
Pete and Repeat sittin’ on a fence. Pete fell off, who was left? Repeat.
Thank you. Quite the true description of the tacky twosome. 🙂
I am so tired of pantygate as well, and have decided that Erika wanted to prolong the agony as it kept her relevant. I don’t care how much she belabors the point that entertainer Erika is different then real life Erika, she still needs to get a sense of humor. Cold, condescending and self absorbed.
I felt sorry for Rinna as the set up by Kim was surely a low blow and inconceivable that she would do that after allegedly making up with Rinna. It has been months since Kim was given the Bunny. She just wanted to be her evil self and get back at Rinna. I also felt that Kyle was gnawing on her fingers to hold back laughing. At least that is what it looked like to me. Glad that Eileen stopped LVP in her tracks and didn’t allow her to get away with trying to take Kim’s side with the Bunny.
Dorit is Dorit and I think she’s a little bit on the mouthy side and as everyone has observed, never knows when to shut up.
Now Andy – I used to like him but I feel he is getting to the point where he likes to sit back and orchestrate all of these shows and laughs at the turmoil around him. Beginning to think that he is misogynistic.
Love Eileen; she is just pure gold. Level headed and insightful.
Kim is a classless, delusional ,cunty alcoholic, LVP, is a grudge holding bitch, who uses others to do her dirty work, as to not damage the false facade she presents and Kyle sits there, with her ugly smirk. We are not fooled, the others are no price either, specially Rinna, but at least , they let us in on the BS.
BINGO!!!!
I’m happy Rinna refused to speak to Kim when she approached her. #girlbye!
It would be best if those two just ignore each other in the future.
As for next season: I’m wishing Dorit and her ignorant husband disappear, and Bravo/Andy has the good sense not to bring Kim back.
I was never a fan of LVP, and I don’t see that changing.
I pretty much agree with all you have said. I don’t ever want to see Dorit and her dickhead husband again. I fast forward them every chance I get. She wants to be a housewife soooo bad.
I did, at one time, like LVP. Now I just enjoy watching her get knocked down a peg– but only because she deserves it.
My order-
Eileen, Erika, Kyle, Rinna, LVP, Kim, Eden, Dorit.
@Kyb
As for LVP: I dislike the fact she has no issue using others to do her ‘dirty work.’ And of late, claiming her insults are just jokes. No, they’re not; as Erika said…that’s how people get away with shit.
I don’t dislike Kyle, but she flip flops, imo. She’s friendly with the other women, but works overtime to maintain her ‘friendship’ with LVP; it’s possible she’s intimidated by her?! I wish she would just be herself and speak truthfully or keep her mouth shut, i.e. when Rinna asked Dorit if she trust PK. The only person I’ve seen Kyle truly stand up for (regardless of her off behavior) is Kim.
Despite her long hugs, I feel Eden means well. I’m on board with her re the Crystals. 🙂 Rinna’s mouth will continue to get her into trouble, but she’s cool people. I like Eileen and Erika, and the friendship they’re creating.
Isn’t Kim behind on her community service hours? She’d better get off the couch and “hop” to it!
I wonder if Kyle will ever take responsibility for making Kim’s sobriety (or lack thereof) a six-season storyline…
You lost me there. Kim is a grown-up, she made the decision to come on the show and is responsible for her choices. I thought after six seasons of watching Kim’s poor choices, people had finally given Kyle a break.
Don’t blame Kyle she was designated driver since the Studio 54 days. Someone in the family had to be the responsible one.
@Nikki- WTF? “take reponsibility?” for what exactly…she is not responsible for what Kim does, you act like she has no life other than being emotionally abused by her sister. She has a lovely family and a lot going on with her multiple projects. She signed a contract with Bravo, she cannot simply edit out the unflattering aspects of her life. She did not need that kind of story line, no one does.
I wish that blue bunny could walk then maybe it could do some community service for Kim to help get her ass off the hook. Kim is a non factor who should be somewhere trying to stay sober instead of reminding everyone what a loser she is.
I’m still confused as to why Kyle is next to Andy. Dorit and Vanderpump have had more to do in both parts than her. I’m assuming it’s because they wanted Kim as close to Andy when she came out considering she was one of only three storylines this season.
Eileen’s dress is by far the prettiest. I just wish she’d hire an actual hair stylist.
I LOL’d at Rinna’s single tear. Nice to know that Melrose Place acting is still in her. This show could use more Taylor McBride!
And Kyle DID laugh at Dorit buying the underwear. The only time she mentioned that it might be a bad idea was in her confessional AFTER the fact. Nice try though, girl.
It does crack me up when the Lisa and Eileen have what I’m sure are genuine emotional responses, but they can’t help expressing them in truly soapy ways. Like when Brandi threw the glass of wine at Eileen and Eileen gave that perfect, “How DARE you?!!” line.
Did you see the unedited portion?
Woah, that evil smirk on andy’s face during bunnygate rivalled Kim’s. He truly is the modern Jack Warner, the king of hagsploitation.
All I can say is, if you don’t want people ogling your snatch, Erica, put on some goddamn underwear. Easy peasy. If you’re such a shrinking violet about your twat maybe you shouldn’t sing about how your kitty is a python. If that thang is worthy of song lyrics it’s worthy of some conversation, I’d say.
Blech, that whole left couch needs to go.
Always puts us on the floor in stitches over the double-entendres with her lyric about her noni “ticking ticking like a time bomb”.
I thought her argument or complaints on the trip were somewhat legit. Still, I expect someone who claims to be a tough cookie to actually look at the person across from her (PK) and not sit there picking at her nails and staring off stage right. So fucking passive aggressive.
You are so right. I would be surprised at all if Erika devised “Panty Gate” on her own to use as a plot line this season. Think about it, without “Panty Gate”, what would Erika’s story line have been?
I know there’s a lot of Erika hate happening here, but you’re really reaching.
Whether or not Erika had a story line, I doubt very much she’d choose the fuckery that’s panty-gate.
And let’s not forget it was LVP who started all *THIS* when she chose to push her hand underneath Erika’s dress.
Now, now, this can’t possibly LVPs doing! It must be Erika making her own self look bad.
🙂
Why are we acting like Erika is not guilty of exactly what LVP did but worse? She literally lifted the back end of Kathryn’s outfit during Kyle and LVP’s joint birthdays for their husbands last season and showed off her bare ass. Don’t sit here and complain about something that the supposed victim has already done to another.
I am so sick of Kim. It disgusts me that at every reunion, Andy never holds Kim accountable for anything. She was a beast to Kyle two reunions ago. She never apologizes and she gets away with it because Andy is a pussy. Why did Rinna have to apologize to her at the last reunion for sending “threatening” texts? Why was Kim inot made to apologize for her crazy limo ride and claiming to know something about Harry? That was disgusting. I would have done more than break a wine glass and send text messages. She has no consequences for any of her actions. Now the bunny incident? I am at least glad she came across like a cunt. I am also glad Rinna did not talk to her. I am also tired of Kyle’s reaction to her sister. For once take a stand and call out your sister for being a complete bitch.
Agreed. Kim has never been held accountable for her despicable behavior towards anyone and yes, Andy acts like a he’s deaf, dumb, and blind where she’s concerned. She’s constantly, speaking over others; it’s all about her and her hurt feelings. There was nothing left to say between her and Rinna. I applaud Rinna saying – NO. Done and Done!
Kyle doesn’t want to be attacked (again) by Kim, so she’ll not say anything to or against her.
It would be in the best interest of everyone, esp. Kim if she refused offers to be on RHOBH periodically.
I rewatched this episode and I think Kyle knew bunny was up next. The knuckle chewing was anticipation. The way she put her head down while still watching Rinna with a look of great expectations, she was pleased with Kim’s actions.
After all, Rinna, Ellen or Erica took more of the stage this season than Kyle, like them or not, they were present.
Look of gleeful anticipation was on Kyles face. Go watch.
Has anyone observed how nasty Andy Cohen is to these women? Watch behind the scenes.
Sober or not, Kim is a bitch. If you felt the bunny had “negative energy” that you couldn’t bear to bring around your grandson, throw it out or donate it. Don’t RETURN it, in cruel, dramatic fashion to the giver of the gift and pretend you’re “doing what’s best”.
Shady bitch. Rinna never would’ve known you’d thrown it away or re-gifted it. She’d be none the wiser and no harm done, but that wasn’t Kim’s goal. Nothing about this vile woman indicates she understands and is working a program.
Also, her biting Eden’s head off like she went around spreading lies about her is straight Kim Richards delusion. Eden is overbearing and intrusive, but she means to help and was alarmed by what Rinna told her. Repeating it to LVP does not amount to “spreading lies to everyone”. My god, I am so over this disaster of a human being.
The bunny thing was so staged!
When it looked like Kim had ended the discussion and agreed with the moving on with LR, Andy brings it all around again by jumping in with “Lilly from Springdale” question wanting to know what happened to the Bunny. Then Kim remembers with an “Oh! Well Lisa, hold on!”
Kyle is trying to hide her expression by looking down and smirking and LVP is sitting there like a rock taking it all in waiting for her moment.
I guess Kim’s delusional in that she must think she’s Queen Bee, because she wants Rinna to take the bunny back and give it back to Kim when LR’s in a better place. I agree with the commenter who said LR should just have thrown the damned thing over her shoulder. I think she should’ve done that and said, “No biggee, I was just doing what Harry had suggested, but it’s fine if you want to show your an ass!”
Queen Bitch (LVP) has to speak up with the most ridiculous statement, “Rinna, she’s saying there’s still hope for the future between the 2 of you.” What?! LVP is making an assumption that Rinna would even WANT to have a relationship with Kim!
And then there’s Kyle, Princess Bitch, trying to hide her glee at Rinna’s distress by sucking on her thumb – oh that’s her finger.
At this point, who gives a flip about Kim and how she feels. Everyone knows Kim is “THE victim.” And that everything that goes on in this world is all about Kim and her victimhood.
Ugh! Bravo please spare us! Why must Bravo put us through this?! Oh – that’s right, because we’re sitting here talking about it, giving it a life.
We’ll never be free of Kim as long as we acknowledge her existence! 🙁
I believe LR sincerely tried to stay out of Kim’s crap this season, make amends and move on. LR made an early connection with Eden and overshared, then regretted it. Kim wouldn’t let it go, regardless of her words I think she enjoyed every minute of the opportunity at the spotlight LR provided. Returning the bunny was just mean, as Eileen said, it was a calculated move to demean, embarrass, and place herself at the center AGAIN. I predict next week LR is going to lash back hard, that has been her MO when she is hurt.
The only time I don’t care for Kyle is when Kim is in the picture. I don’t know if she is a true enabler or not, but I didn’t like her nervous smiles during the bunny return. She does make too many excuses for her sister’s shitty behavior. Superstitious or not, that was wasn’t about Rinna, that was all about KIM.
I use to like Erika, after last night I’m totally turned off her. She reminded me of Heather Dubrow with that apology crap. She was letting it go but she needed a better apology first, she was letting it go but she still has questions, she was letting it go but..please just let. It. go. Erika dragged it out far worse then Dorit. She could have at any time pulled Dorit aside and asked her about it. I felt like it was far more like how dare anyone talk about me! Erika talking about not having to be invited to be there and Andy correcting her was kinda funny. Beer confused on why people care that Dorit has nannies but defend Erika’s choice to leave her 3 year old son to love and pursue a career in waitressing..Erika did not “make it” as she likes to say, she married a gold mine, Tom seems nice and I’m sure their marriage is real but Erika did not moved to CA to get discovered, without Tom, no one is paying that 40000 hair and make up price.
Rinna did Kim far worse then she did Rinna. That whole close to death thing was bullshit. If she remembers why she said it then she sure as shit remembers saying it! She was let off way to easy for that. Asking about the coke thing was the same thing. The difference in the coke question and the Xanax issue was Rinna brought the Xanax out herself. She had a whole baggie of pills, no one made that up. I think it was Erika that told Rinna about Dorit’s comment.
You can make a sincere apology or attempt to have the last word, you can’t do both.
Sera tell it AWL!
Oh my gawd, these reunions!! Used to live for these, now, just Ugh. If after reading the comments, (recap was great), maybe if I’m looking for something to watch, I’ll watch.
I feel kind of bad for Eden and a truly unfortunate series of RHOBH events, as boring and awkward as she probably is as a person. My suspicion is that if Lisa Rinna had pulled her aside at the dress shop and said, “Listen, I think Housewife A is cheating on her man,” or “Housewife B used to be a stripper,” she may well have kept her mouth shut.
But Rinna happened to hit on what is clearly Eden’s big regret in life — that she could have done more to save her addicted sister from ODing, even if it meant ugly confrontations. In her mind, if someone tells her that Housewife C’s sister is close to dying from her drug habit, how could she NOT try to do something about it?
Why is this a 3 part reunion? This nonsense could have been condensed into a 1/2 hour.
No Kidding!
I agree Rinna is where she is at due to her own actions. However, excusing Kim for her behavior because of Rinna’s actions is in essence, us the audience, enabling Kim. Can anyone verify that Kim Richards was sober last night? We are all assuming she was sober. We are all assuming her anger towards Rinna is because Rinna’s talking behind her back. Maybe, it is because Rinna hit the nail on the head. She is not 100% sober.
Kim’s pupils we’re HUGE, like seriously giant. She went for the effect and got it. She is a mean spiteful lush who has basically made her whole family sick with her addictions. And I do believe she is near death, you drink and drug and do all those behaviors you are one incident away from death. Kim ladies out at anyone who calls her shit. Anyone!
I hadn’t noticed her huge pupils, but you can see them in the picture up above. I had noticed her skin was looking bad again.
That’s a real shame, she can’t afford to fall off the wagon again!
Christ on a cracker, Erika is off her rocker. She went from my favorite housewife of all time to the one I wish would drop off of the earth. She gives more f*cks than anyone in this whole franchise. Such a poser.
You are so right. It seems as if she walks on water here!
Ha ha ha ha ha! Way off her rocker!
That quote from Kim…”I think it is good that you feel bad, because you hurt me”…that’s some bad Karma coming her way & will probably be coming from her kids. It’s what she’ll hear from them when they cut her & her negative energy out of their lives.
If Kim had simply focused on how Rinna’s words had really hurt her – they were outrageous and even slanderous, saying Kim wasn’t sober, she was close to death, and Kyle was her enabler – it would have been much more effective…at one point I think Andy asked Lisa R why she said that stuff and she started to answer but the stupid antics coming from the bunny side just meant no answer was given if I got that part right, too much brew ha ha with the bunny took the focus off of what needed to be focused on, Rinna shutting her lips
Have you all forgotten that LVP hasn’t let pantygate drop, at every opportunity she has asked Erika if she’s wearing underwear. It’s not Erika that didn’t drop it! And the fact that PK still doesn’t understand why it was upsetting just proves what an imbecile he is!
Kim Richards is a cunt.
100% + 100% agree!
Think LVP might be a bit jealous of Erika being able to be ” panty-free”. As we age, panty less is not an option.
I can’t imagine anyone being jealous of that
The pantygate debate will resolve itself as they are dragged kicking and screaming into menopause. Not only will wearing panties be an absolute necessity, I add panty liners to those granny panties. As a bonus, they prevent camel toe. Sad, but just keeping it real, ladies. #menopausebites
Just my take, but seems likely that Erika’s (and the entire cast’s part) in perpetuating the dire no-panties drama was prompted by storyline-starved producers. C’mon, the “smoking gun” was fired by LVP herself (exec producer). She KNEW EJ was commando under that dress, and shoved her hand up there as a humorous “Brit” prank.
Also, LVP had a reasonable motive to play Cuba Gooding to Erika’s Sarah Paulson; in doing so, she gave Pal Dorit and the revolting PK a narrative they could munch on for the entire season.
Granted, being the spawn of a performing family, experience as a strip club waitress ‘tween Grown-up jobs, and as a late-in-life kinda feminist, I have strong biases. Exposing someone’s privates in public without consent is not a “joke;” it’s a sleazy power move and a personal violation. Whether it’s Beyonce, Erika Jayne, Sarah P, Cherry Flambe-Porn Star, or Mary-jane Doe: what one does professionally, by choice, gives NO one an excuse to assume it’s OK to pull up your skirts/pull down one’s top, etc.
What disappointed me most about the commando-Erika “story” (as if the weirdly puritan reactions and tedium weren’t bad enough), was that nobody really articulated the reasons that LVP, Dorit, and the grotesque PK were in the wrong. But maybe that would have made a premature end to the whole mishegas.
LVP is not, and never has been a producer on RHOBH.
Oh! Sorry; my bad! Was SO sure LVP had “exec” producer status, that I didn’t even do a web search. Grrr; note to self: Google is our friend.
Still, the only way I can make sense of her action in pulling the trigger on this lame, uh, panty-line, is that she had a stake in making this idiotic story happen. Am a total Reality parvenu, but the claims about LVP trying to prompt narratives sound pretty plausible to me.
Correct and neither is Kyle Richards for that matter. You seem to always mention that Kyle is a producer of RHOBH but nowhere online including IMDB list her as anything but a cast member.
Kyle is a producer. It has even been discussed on the show during the Yolanda fake illness drama. Kyle was on the producer email chain and that is why Yolanda was mad at Kyle for the whole Munchausen thing.
I’m not denying that at all as that’s what I thought. I just find it weird that when it comes to any website officially listing the producers or RHOBH that Kyle is never found. LVP’s found for Vanderpump Rules just as Kyle’s listed for American Woman. Why if she’s supposedly a producer is she not listed? There’s 11 producers listed throughout it’s 7 season but she’s not ever been one of them.
I definitely feel Kim was completely wrong to give Lisa Rinna the bunny back on the reunion. It was definitely classless. If she truly didn’t want the bunny, then send it back to LR or shove it in a corner. Who cares??
As far as the pantygate scandal, I do believe Erika shrugged it off in the beginning like it wasn’t a big deal, then all of the sudden in Hong Kong it was the end of the world.I think she totally exaggerated it. Lay off Dorit. She apologized, let it go!
I liked the way ok handled himself, Erika used the panty crap as a way to be involved, she gets naked in front of us for her show, what’s up with the whole ‘ I was scandalized, you were joking about me?’ The 3 did gang up on dorit in HK when it was supposed to be over!
The Kim thing, big deal, noticed eden didn’t get all teary eyed when LR said she had no idea where the stupid love jar was!
Winners lvp, Kyle, dorit and pk. Losers are the other side of the couch.
Saw the bunny segment. If I was Lisa, that bunny would be publicly disembowelled and it’s remains left wherever Kim was couch surfing. And what was up with the goofy look on kyles face when this was going down? I couldn’t tell if she was embarrassed or thrilled.
The bunny and Kim scenario would have been reversed. Stuffed animals matter as they bring joy to little children. Kyle was mortified. Kim’s all Humpty Dumpty and the world’s population can’t fix her mess. Besides real problems. Let them eat chocolate cake.
Oh yes, the Donald tried to pick up my friend back in the late 70s. She turned him down.
I re-watched this episode, and noticed something that passed me by first time.
Eileen and Rinna’s friendship is as fake as Erika’s hair: after Rinna’s hysterics, Eileen chased after her, and instead of checking she was ok she immediately launched into, “Listen, I need to tell you what to think about what Kim just did….”. It was incredibly controlling.
I wouldn’t be at all shocked if Rinna turns on Eileen eventually. They’ve had a long friendship, so I think she puts up with Eileen’s smug moral superiority (like when she pulled her aside in Amsterdam and demanded an explanation for “not having her back”), but she’s going to realize how imbalanced the relationship is at some point and react accordingly.
I enjoy your recaps a lot, TT.
One thing I am sure of is that I actually do not think PK ever saw anything under Erika’s dress. Why? Well it was already a topic before that awkward scene about panties. ‘Someone’ led Dorit and PK to make this a whole huge drama about something never seen and unfortunately Erika went right into that mean trap.
That’s always puzzled me, too, Pixa. It looked so staged with LVP going out of her way to ask Erika if she was wearing any underwear (who does that?) and the prior conversation with Kyle.
The whole thing was a set-up, whether this was orchestrated by Vanderpump or the producers or both.
Jasmine, thank you. I too felt LVP started this, your right who does that? It was a set up
Yes Jasmine, so much drama and I am sure PK desperately looked for a storyline and an ugly one.
i am so sick and tired of Erika and the whole pantry gate thing. First, it was Erika who told the world she wasn’t wearing any panties. Let’s not forget how provocative she dresses, wearing dresses and skirts up to her “who who” or the fact that she was completely nude in front of her staff and the show’s film crew as she tried to squeeze into a costume. Let’s not try to think she’s one person on stage and another person off stage. Because she’s not. Erika comes across as a cold, calculating, heartless, better than thou, self-righteous snobby Bitch. Never heard of her before she became a RHOBH. Never heard anything about her so-called career. All she does in her stage performances is twIrk her ass off, wearing as little as possible…..she can’t even dance (which she proved in DWTS). Like to see where she’d be without all her husband’s money. Money cannot buy you class!!!!! Not only is she sleazy, she’s underhanded as well. Does anyone remember when she first appeared on the show when she started some shit with her comments and when it was asked during a party who made the statement…did she own up to it…no way! She’s gossiped about her fellow cast members behind their backs, but when face to face, she a complete phony. I hope Bravo does not bring Erika back. I’d rather she Brandy..at least she’s truthful to her character.
