Tonight’s episode title seems to place the blame directly on the boys this week when things to south with Thomas and Kathryn, Craig and Naomie return to fake TV therapy and Shep interferes with Chelsea’s relationship with Austen.
We’re going to start with dueling Kathryn and Thomas scenes. I need someone to remind me why I dislike JD because I have forgotten and I am falling for his act a bit this season. His restaurant looks amazing, he knows how to dress like a Southerner. I have forgotten what is wrong with him. Thomas meets him at his Bar and Grill for some good ole boy talk. Thomas acts like he is being very gracious to allow the kids to take photos with their mother. JD let’s Thomas know that Landon is not the best choice for a romantic interest.
In the Kathryn scene, Cameran has done a complete turn around on Kathryn and going shopping with her to help pick out clothes for the kids to wear in a photo shoot. She recently posted a couple of photos from the photo shoot on her Instagram while when she had the kids this past weekend and all hell broke lose because people thought she was posting old pictures to make it seem like she had the kids. Nope. The kids were there eating junkfood as usual and she posted the photos from that weekend as well. So this is three weekends that the schedule has been followed.
Landon’s father tries to encourage Landon to get into the real estate field. Since he is a developer, this is a no brainer. She recently posted that she was taking the test to get her real estate license. She is not thrilled with this idea because she has to actually work if she does that. That said, the realtor exam is difficult. I doubt she can pass.
Cameran goes to visit Shep who has been furiously cleaning up after his latest frat party. She is once again encouraging him to go after Chelsea. He points out that Chelsea is with Austen. She says that she and Shep both have insecurities about getting hurt in the relationship. Shep says his issue is his concern with hurting other people. Then he explains that he doesn’t care about anyone. What was the point of this scene? And who at Bravo thought Shep could carry his own show?
The editing of this episode is the worst every. The weird scene with Shep and Cameron was stuck in between the scene of Cameran going to meet Kathryn and Chelsea and arriving at the baby clothes store. While Cameran’s chat with production has her being very sweet to Kathryn, we get a talking head of Kathryn that was clearly shot after things go down hill where Kathryn is dismissive of Cameran. I will be paying special attention to Kathryn’s confessionals in the long-sleeved blue outfit. You should too.
As it turns out we are not picking out clothes for the kid’s photo shoot, we are picking out clothes for Kathryn to wear in the photo shoot. Also, Cameran is helping herself to champagne as Kathryn goes into the fitting room. Cameran and Kathryn discuss whether they should off Kathryn wine. Chelsea says they probably should not be drinking in front of her. Cameran says she’s just going to live her life. Chelsea suggests that Cameran do a sexy photo shoot as a gift to her husband before she gets pregnant and her body goes to shit. Cameran invites the girls to party in Key West. Then Chelsea and Cameran encourage Kathryn to buy the ugliest dress in the store.
Austen and Chelsea have a weird scene in Austen’s car. Chelsea tells Austen that Shep grabbed her in the bar the night before and tried to kiss her several times. Austen was there with the group when this happened. Austen is pissed. She says that Shep was trash talking Austen and trying to get with her. Austen has plans with Shep and Whitney later that night.
Later, Austen and Craig bond over their hatred for Shep. Then Whitney and Shep arrive for the guys night out. Shep doesn’t deny a thing about the situation with Chelsea. He says he was doing it as a test for Austen’s benefit. Whitney defends Shep. Craig defends Austen and mentions that Shep tried to sleep with Naomie. Then Shep blames Cameran for pushing him toward Chelsea. Shep doesn’t remember telling Craig that Chelsea was just slumming with him. Shep is storming off like he is the victim. He’s offended that Austen repeated the stuff that Shep said. Shep can’t remember what he does or says when he drinks. And he is always drinking.
Thomas shows up with the kids to the photo shoot. Why are they not showing Saint? He was totally there but is not being shown. Did anyone else freak out that Chelsea was spraying hairspray like there was no tomorrow while Kensie sat in Kathryn’s lap? Why can’t anyone ever just brush Kensie’s hair? Kensie pitches a fit when it is over and clearly wants to leave with Kathryn. That is heart breaking. Kensie is literally kicking and screaming as Thomas puts her in the car. Kathryn has a breakdown.
Long rehashing of the Shep situation with Cameran and Chelsea. No one cares about Shep. Why is this a storyline.
Craig and Naomie go to counseling. Naomie greets Craig with “Did you just wake up?” As Craig says, that was a low blow right off the bat. Craig tells a story of Naomie making a joke at his expense. In the flashback the joke was totally scripted. Just like this therapy. This is all make believe. These two are happy as claims on their Instagram. Basically, Craig is the battered wife in this fake scene. It’s not nice and I don’t want to see it.
Later, Shep and Cameran talk and Shep admits he doesn’t remember what he did. Cameran points out Shep has entitlement issues. Cameran says that Shep is jealous of Austen. Shep adamantly denies it.
Next Week: The Shep saga continues. I am not interested. Kathryn tells Cameran that Landon and Thomas took the Valentines Day trip to London that she and Thomas planned together. The gang goes to Key West. Landon is confronted for placing her vagina on a platter for Thomas. Craig has had enough of Naomie’s put downs. Everyone, including Kathryn gets drunk.
After seeing how Kensie is craving and longing to be with her mommy, as little girls that age do, and knowing the heartbreak for the child that her being deprived of Kathryn at this age is causing Kensie — for life — I can’t even comment. And Thomas was so cold, whereas Kathryn was so warm and loving. Thomas just tossed and stuffed Kensie in the car with no kind words of conversation or soothing of Kensie. I am sorry, but that is very tough, and very hard to deal with, and would make me want to drink. NOT advocating it .. but the kind of cruelty that Thomas inflicted on Kathryn snd Kensie.. makes my blood boil. Just horrible.
Duh, he’s following a court order. Stop romantising this famewhore fool.
Stop being so cuntastic. There is nothing romantic about this. Kensie is clearly suffering, and you call her sobbing mother a famewhore? Are you really Landon, posting under the name “Spunky”? What is wrong with you?
I guarandamntee that “court-order” was bought and paid for in a lounge of the local Country Club by Thomas’ Dad!
I could ask you the same question. I guess I hit a nerve for you to call me a derogatory name that you weren’t even creative enough to think of yourself.
Kathryn is to blame for all of this heartbreak. It’s terrible for the kids who I only have sympathy for. She’s so self absorbed she couldn’t put that child in Thomas’ car and try to comfort and calm her down? That’s what a REAL mother would do. No, it’s too upsetting for poor victimized Kathryn so Thomas had to do it and he’s the bad guy? Then he had the responsibility of calming Kensie down when they got home while Kathryn cries and feels sorry for herself while whining to Chelsea. Not a word or concern about poor Kenzie, just on how she paid her price. All me, me, me.
What you apparently don’t understand is that this situation is between the Courts and Kathryn, not Thomas, as far as visitation, custody, etc.
Fools like you give tacit approval to Kathryn and her behaviors.
You falsely accused me of romanticizing, so I am entitled to respond. You can dish it out, but you can’t take it. Anyone who would be so unkind, the way you have been about Kathryn, after seeing that scene of heartbreak is just ugly. And woe to those who call others a fool, as you keep doing.
You are romanticizing. Come on.
My thought was that Kathryn was about to lose it and didn’t want Kenzie to see her crying. I would have done the same thing
Shall we all remember the fact Kathryn did lose custody after this was filmed. I hate Kenzie is hurt in all this but her mother is an addict who should have been thinking about that before she failed a drug test and the courts ruled in Thomas’ favor. Imagine if those children were hurt under her care. She’s got a long row to how and she can do it if she wants it bad enough. Time will tell.
Spunky you are giving yourself away. Landon you are so stupid you can’t even disguise yourself. I can’t stand the way you talk. I can’t stand the way you laugh. You are a vapid waste of space and great exercise for my mute button!
I’m not Landon. LOL. I wish I was with that great opportunity her gracious Dad gave her.
Whoa! I wanted to crack these parents heads together on many occasions, but can’t we just focus on the kids? It’s a huge punishment for Kathryn’s stupid mistakes, at least half of which is punishing the children. But does anybody think TRav’s nose is clean (pun intended) in the same regard? He is not a nurturer, and for all Kathryn’s stupid actions she seems to be. At least if those kids are doomed to have screwed up parents let them at least be exposed to the best each has to offer.
If you look again you’ll see KD was pulling the tearless Bravo sobbing. And her smirks/sly looks when her routine works with TRav say more than her words which are rarely backed up by action.
Agreed spunky. She was going for drama by drawing the whole thing out and crying and he tried to be the mature one by making it quick. If she cared that much she’d be passing her drug tests and releasing the medical records the courts demanded she release. Think it’s all an act for tv.
Oh bullishit. He was being the mature one by not trying to drag it out and make it worse and filled with more drama like she was trying to do. He sat and waited a minute to make sure she was okay walking back inside. He went above and beyond by bringing her and being cool the whole time. Knew Kathryn would throw some drama in somewhere.
That’s a good point. I was looking at it from a mother’s point of view.
Thanks for the recap. I find Thomas and Landon’s gaslighting of Kathryn disgusting and obvious and am no longer watching.
I too find them disgusting. Landon was being offered an opportunity to do some property babysitting at the rate of $200,000/year, yet that was a pity me party, daddy is giving this to me, isn’t that terrible?
The scene was obviously set up and over-managed by Bravo ,and her every reaction was nonsensical and self-indulgent.
I don’t believe a word Landon says. And while she is telling her dad about all her blood, sweat and tears spent on the website, she is admitting, they did not trademark the name, so don’t have one. Meanwhile, at the opening event, the women working with her had admitted they had done the writing, programming and site development work the viewers saw, not Landon. So much for any effort at all on Landon’s part.
Did anyone else notice how slurry Thomas’s words are? This was during the day, at his home and at some events, he appeared to be slurring virtually all the time. It appeared to me that his endless drinking has caused fundamental physical damage to him. He appears far less interesting and far more lost a character this season. From his father’s treatment of him to his self- presentation, Thomas is far past his peak. His family’s dispassionate comments asking when he will stop being a burden/embarrassment,( I don’t remember the exact language) was a true cut to the soul.
And he too is lying- while we saw him being far more thoughtful with Kathryn last night, just after this period he disappeared for the summer with the children, according to court records, without court approval or communication with Kathryn. He is as big a con as he ever was. And gets a kick out of it, for sure.
I noticed Landon’s dad came to her door with a briefcase and rolled up blue prints..then cut to them getting in the car with the same . Why did he bring them to the door? Did not discuss and and then travel to the grasslands? Pure production junk. Why Landon agreed to do this was for one reason…to promote her Dad’s development. Reason: To keep him giving her money!
IMHO
I really don’t think that Landon’s fathers company needs promotion from bravo. It’s extremely successful and The Landon that we’ve seen on the show could actually hurt his profits.
Landan’s expression when her father suggested she work for him was priceless. This woman is so delusional. No wonder she can’t find a man to marry her.
Lol agreed. He’s paying her bills anyways. Don’t think it’s too much to ask for her to do actual work if he’s gonna keep taking his money to sit on her ass and cry about some bullishit website that will never come to fruition.
Loved the part where she holds up her phone and says oh well, no way to show Dad my plans since it’s a web site. I guess that means she never drew up a business plan at ALL and STILL didn’t have a working web page to show her beleaguered Dad. Jeez.
Ugh Landon makes me want to puke. I would love for someone to offer me a job that pays “a couple hundred thousand” without really earning the position. She should have stayed with her husband because she obviously does not want to be independent considering how little effort she puts into her travel site.
I don’t like/can’t stand Landon, but she’s already been married and divorced, and I believe she ended the marriage, so she can definitely “find” a man to marry her she’s just on a stupid quest with this joke of a site first. It’s beyond ridiculous that she would claim to have put so much blood, sweat and tears into a job when she didn’t even bother to verify the NAME for her company was even available for trademarking. It’s nonsensical.
Her father is right, dreams are nice and you should try, but you also need to pay the bills and have a back up plan. She would be smart to work for him and do the site on the side.
Thanks for the great recap! I just wanted to push Landon off the dock when she was wailing to her father. And the “deer in the headlights” expression on his face when they were driving out to look at the property cracked me up. Was he more alarmed by Landon’s driving or the fact that he agreed to be on this show? Poor dude!
I cried like a baby watching sweet little Kensie cry for her mother. My heart broke for Kathryn as well. I don’t know their situation but I do know those babies need their mother and Thomas is so far from a Saint it’s a joke! I too want someone to just brush Kensie’s hair and leave it down! Shep has gone from my soul mate to a no-go this season; which is sooo sad.
I don’t care if the rest of it was completely scripted. The tears were real in that parking lot.
Kathryn IS paying the consequences for her actions. Unfortunately, so are her children. But she is clearly still childlike in that she thinks that such actions don’t have long lasting consequences, and her summer “retreat” into rehab wasn’t going to make everything go away. Making amends isn’t “one and done”.
Despite the Kathryn vs. Thomas mentality in other responses, both actually behaved appropriately with their child. Good on Thomas for not making Kathryn the bad guy in buckling up Kensie. Even in intact families – good dads do see when both Mama and baby are near tears, and step in. I thought Thomas looked very sad at watching Kathryn walk away. He couldn’t go after her – he had Kensie in the car. It may have been the most real moment for either of them on the show ever.
I agree with that. I watched him wait until she made it inside. He was trying to be the mature one by making it fast instead of making it some drama filled long drawn out thing like Kathryn was doing. I knew she would bring some drama into it somewhere. It was cool of him to bring her in the first place and he was cool the whole time and supportive and complimentary to Kathryn. Instead of whining “she wants to go with meee” and opening the door and then making him come be the bad guy, I’m over it. She’s gotta get her shit together. If she cared she would be passing drug tests, going to meetings, making an effort instead of posting selfies and going out partying. I get it’s a vicious circle that she uses because of her past mistakes that she can’t forgive herself but she’s gotta try at least.
And Kathryn allowed Kensie to both go to her car and to get in her car- which a smart Mom would not have done under the circumstances. In essences, she caused the situation to get to that level by making it a bigger scene than it needed to be, had she simply walked her to Thomas’s car and put her in it. Thomas was forced to clean up her mess. Had she ushered Kensie to his car ,minimized the tears and smiled her way through it, Kenzie could have recovered/failed to reach that emotional level . But Kathryn wanted the audience to see Kensie missed her mom, nd she wanted to be able to make a scene about it.
True, but the reality is that she hasn’t had a lot of practice at handoffs or being a mom to a toddler. I realize that her own actions brought that about, but she is still going to need practice to get better. None of us were wise mothers the day our first born baby came. It’s something you get better at with time and practice, like anything else.
I agree that Thomas handled the situation in the parking lot well. I also felt like Thomas was embarrassed that the tantrum was being filmed because it made it clear Kensie misses her mama. Thomas pulling the girl out of her mother’s car and into his was the best option. Kathryn doing it would have just broken her heart more.
I don’t think I can take a whole season of Shep and his complete disregard for women in general. Why don’t we have footage of the incident. Lots of cast there, filmed at Shep’s bar. Footage or it didn’t happen. They seem to be going in hard with the whole Shep has a drinking problem. Why? Especially since he has a spinoff where he basically drinks and fucks his way through the 50 states. How is this good for his spinoff or his brand/Instagram ads. He basically said he pushes himself onto women that are with other people “because it usually works.” Whitney is basically approving his behavior and telling Austen and thereby also Chelsea that she is over reacting to Shep acting on his every whim.
So to recap, Whitney has some production rights on this show. Whitney likes Shep. Shep’s storyline is he is an alcoholic who is a reckless whore with no regard for the feelings of anyone else.
WHY?
I feel like we are missing something here.
And lord help Chelsea couldn’t even tell Austen without wearing a shit eating grin the whole time. So I agree, if it wasn’t filmed it didn’t happen.
As far as Kathryn and her blue shirt confessional I totally wasn’t expecting it yet since the whole show she was in the pink top. I wasn’t paying much attention to the show until I heard her and I immediately thought well here we go with the downfall. It’s obvious bravo couldn’t wait to start showing her blue shirt confessional since they showed her in the pick the other times. And it’s obvious to all of us that she was doing good while filming in the pink shirt.
I feel like this whole season has been a giant promo for sheps new TV show.
I think this Chelsea the white trash princess they are fighting over story line is tired. She’s using Austin just to be on tv. No way shep “forced” his way on this chick she was eager to give it up to him before he left to that wedding. She was pissed he didn’t call yet tells Austin she’s a cool chick that doesn’t want a relationship. Guess she just wants a “relationshep”
And honestly I hate Craig at this point. He’s such a piece of shit. Man this can’t be scripted between them, the resentment she has towards him feels way too real. He treats her like shit. The comment about Pescaterian was funny. He needs to get over looking stupid, she just points it out, not like she’s making him look stupid. He does that all on his own.
these spin off shows are desperate. First jax and now shep?
I wonder if they have footage he came off as being very aggressive and they decided not to use it… Instead just downplaying it like ‘oh that’s just Shep… He’s just a fun loving frat boy’
Chelsea said he ‘grabbed her’ and when Austin repeated that he ‘grabbed her’ Shep seemed to get very defensive and walk away. I don’t know just crossed my mind after I saw footage for next week where it looks like Chelsea might be backtracking out of that statement (maybe because of Cameron)?
I’m rewatching and I really think they edited alot out of that Austin/ shep conversation. I think what shep did or said was a lot worse than how they portrayed it. Why did his friend beau have to get involved? And when beau was telling sheep what they were talking about they took out what he said after ‘money and…..’
The way they edited was probably how Whitney was protecting Shep.
And I think scene of Chelsea and Austin in car was filmed after…that’s why she was kind of smiling when she was telling story
I think you’re likely right. I thought the very same way.
Landon. Fool. Did you hear the kind of commission she could rake in? And she was all “Waaahhh…my website….waaaahhhh…” Please. With that kind of money on the line I’d study my rear off to get my real estate license and WORK.
That was when I started yelling at the tv. Every person I know who is starting a business HAS a job to pay the bills until the start up starts paying.
Landon knows less than the typical 10 year old about developing a website.
I just thought “You spoiled little brat” when Landon heard her dad’s offer.
You did a post between seasons (not sure which) and it was something about jd not being a southerner like whit. Also his wife giving birth while he couldn’t be found because he has many girl friends allegedly. Maybe that’s why you/we don’t like him. Oh and the fake bourbon business
Whoa what?? Not there? Girlfriends? He’s always given me the creeps.
Yes! I believe it was done as a blind item.
Didn’t JD say to Thomas in the beginning “You’re not thinking of marrying Kathryn, are you?” WHY do all Thomas’ friends KEEP saying that? Like Kathryn is radioactive? She is young, gorgeous, talented, charismatic, intelligent, stylish and elegant. And she was “good enough” to create, carry and give birth to Kensie and Saint. Who are Kathryn’s attackers/detractors? Many of them Boozers, some alleged drug users themselves, self-avowed stalkers of ancient wealthy man-prey, lots of skeletons in their belfries — and almost all of them horrible self-superior snobs? I have seen Kathryn defend herself, but never be a snob. Does Thomas ask these people to say “oh you can’t marry her?” From his pastor, to even JD, to Landon, the Carpetbagger and all her minions? They all COINCIDENTALLY and magically say it all the time. It was so sad when Kathryn cried that they felt like a family when they were filming, and that is what she had always hoped for. That is what Kensie and Saint hope for too. I think the breaking of that family dream crushed Kathryn and pushed her over the edge (asThomas knew it would) – along with – as blondesense noted above – Landon and Thomas constantly gas lighting Kathryn. There are ways to break a person’s spirit. If Thomas had married Kathryn, who truly loved Thomas, and if he had worked to make a loving family, it would have been the best thing for those children. But Thomas created the drama and heartache by finding excuses not to keep his promises to Kathryn and by allowing his hounds of hell to maul her constantly and horribly – Crypt-keeper Patti & Co. and Lazy Landon. Kathryn keeps getting blamed when Thomas admitted on Savanah that he “got what he wanted out of it – 2 kids – but he did not want to get married”. Oh… how thoughtful for the children.. to be spoken of as mere acquisitions – with no mention for creating a loving family for them with their own mother. And we see Kensie desperate for her mother in the parking lot. This stinks. It appears, from his actions, those of his “friends” and from what he himself has admitted — that Thomas had an end-game in his sights, so imo he gets no gold stars for acting mature in the parking lot when he knows he is being filmed and he has to do something to salvage the situation bc it is now obvious how much Kensie wants and needs her mommy. And it is all on camera. It all stinks.
and did you see in the previews where Landon says to Kathryn ” I feel like he uses me to hurt you” and I couldn’t believe finally the truth comes out of Landon’s mouth. Yes, Thomas uses Landon to attack Kathryn, finally someone said it, just was shocked it was Landon.
I saw/heard that too!! It would be super cool if Kathryn and Landon bonded over it all. I would so love that to happen!! And how cool would it be if Landon became her strongest defender, stranger things have happened in real life as well as on “reality” TV.
I can never imagine Landon and Kathryn becoming fast friends. Kathryn had 2 kids with this man..Landon was driving hard for $$$ and rebound love.
Landon older and not that smart. Kathryn, beautiful and the mother of his children..
Both of them have issues. T-rav is joined with Kathryn for a long time.
I know and you are quite right, I just think it would be cool and would leave Thomas looking like the jerk he is…
It could happen. Kathryn and Landon finally seeing the games Thomas is playing. The problem with Thomas is that he is not that smart, but he thinks he is.
Nailed it.
There is just something smarmy about JD. I want to go wash my hands after every scene he’s in. I don’t have any particular reason for this feeling but I can’t seem to shake it.
JD drops in and out somewhat like a bad version of Yoda . He dispenses his snip-it’s of wisdom..shows his restaurant and hawks his bourbon line.
Yeah, but God love him for seeing the Thomas and Kathryn situation for what it is and calling it like he sees it. On the first episode, he said at a party, he said “Watch, Kathryn will walk in and Thomas will be saying, “Oh, she looks good…”” When Thomas mentioned things were going well, he said “Are you going to propose?” Thomas replied “she’s a hard woman to resist.” It was a joke, but it’s obvious she still makes Thomas weak in the knees, versus all of the forced appeal of Landon. I liked when JD just closed his eyes when Thomas mentioned seeing Landon. I do believe JD and Elizabeth care for those kids and want to see them doing well, which means their parents getting along. Thomas and Kathryn are finally on a good path, and he’s going to sabotage it with Landon. It’s not worth it. Landon’s not worth it.
I think you bring up a good point. It appears very REAL that JD & Elizabeth (who is so nice) care for the well being of the kids. They do seem to want to see Thomas & Kathryn get along. No one else cares!
I agree with @justanothermary. JD is smarmy. Also, I’m still wondering why Craig had to pay JD $15,000 to work for him last season. Was Craig “investing” in JD’s bourbon business? I don’t think this was ever explained.
Man I mentioned this on Twitter and his wife and JD went absolutely nuts. She came flying out of nowhere attacking me then a day later made him come to her defense. I never addressed any tweets to them, they were just hash tagged southern charm. Where there is smoke there is fire and that shit was smoky as hell. They both bitched and attacked me then brought in their random friends to do the same and try and add me on Twitter because my wall is private. They seriously lost it when their dirty secret was publicly discussed. Lol I blocked them then they made this big deal that they blocked me. Pathetic losers. His wife is a moron for putting up with it.
I think Chelsea is loving this. She is NEVER definitive when talking to Austen or Shep. She said she enjoys two guys fighting over her. I think she is a prick tease.
I haven’t been watching the episodes, just reading the recaps but I must say, I wouldn’t mind two men fighting over moi! At 53 it’s probably not gonna happen any time soon, LoL.
I think Gizmo, and not Shep, should get his own spinoff! ??
Me too !!!!
I know, Scottishwitch – I don’t want to see Shep’s ridiculous show!!
I kept looking at Kensie’s forehead when Thomas brought her to the photo shoot. I swear I saw a huge bruise on the middle of her forehead. Did I see this correctly?
Toddlers get bumps and bruises.
My son had that till he was 3 from an assisted birth. It’s normal and also bumps and bruises are always on a healthy playful toddler!
When Craig and Naomi met at the therapists office and she said “did you just wake up?” and he says something about it being a low blow. He was hoarse, red and puffy faced and looked dazed, wtf was she supposed to think? Either he was hungover or just woke up, or sick which he should have just told her. He’s a major dick and I’ve disliked him from day one. She’d be best to drop his ass and never look back, there’s much better fish in the sea sweet Naomi.
I think she knew he was sick or had allergies and said that to him so he would look bad on camera. That’s probably why he said it was a low blow.
She keeps picking on him in front of her new friends and on camera- I’m not sure if she thinks she’s being cute but I find it very obnoxious. And bratty
And I like them
Or maybe she’s tired of him sleeping all day while she’s working her butt off all day. There’s always that!
Yeah. But doubt it. Naomi hearts Camerontime
I can not stand to look at or listen to Naomi. There is really no one to root for here. Each and every one of them is obnoxious in their own way.
Craig said on WWWHL last night that he “wishes” the fighting between he and Naiomie was fake but it was real. Yeah, OK. I think the only storyline that is real on this show is Thomas and Kathryn’s sad custody issues which are getting out of hand if you ask me. Pimping out your children for fame and a paycheck is not OK. Kensie and Saint should not be exploited this way. Thomas and Kathryn can both eat a bowl of dicks for all I care. Booth are awful people who should not breed.
I am not feeling this Chelsea bish at all!!! She has no chemistry with either Shep nor Austen and she ain’t even that cute. I feel she is just in it to be on tv. Where did they find her anyway…on “Survivor” ???
She is not all that, despite the producers best efforts to make us think so.
I guess Cameran is the moderator of this show but all she does is drive around in her Mercedes and stir up other people shyt all day???Girl Bye!
Shep is creepy and my guess is if he wasn’t white & wealthy this story wouldn’t be thrown off by Whitney as an inappropriate advance. This is never appropriate behavior and he shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it, bad enough we have a POTUS who thinks it’s ok to grab women by the p****.
Landumb seems sure of herself that all she’d have to do is give the word and she’d have Thomas’s ring on her finger. Maybe he’s only looking for his next bed partner.
Her Dad looked totally exasperated with his daughter. She can no longer fool him. He knows she’s lazy, not that smart, and he will never stop having to pay her bills.
Did she not see Thomas promise to marry Kathryn if she had his baby? We all saw it and he still backtracked. He left one girl at the alter and sued a fiance for a ring back. What makes her think it will be any different with her?
I’ve wondered a time or two about what someone said up this string about court deals being hashed out in the back room of the country club. It’s not unheard of. Yeah, Kathryn’s done some stupid shit but we’re also talking about someone that’s done time for cocaine. I mean, WTF? No clean hands in this scenario.
I have no idea why anyone thinks Shep can carry a show. It’s ridiculous. Pushing himself on to women because he’s a self-entitled frat boy pushing 40 that lives off mailbox money? So attractive. That pic of Austen made me laugh. He looks like a mama’s boy. I hope I didn’t offend anyone waiting to be offended about mama’s boys.
I imagine kissing Austen is like kissing a bulldog with his underbite and thick slobbery lispy tongue. Ick. I seriously doubt Chelsea is hot for him. Just an act for a Bravo check. Man, I am really disliking the entire cast this season. I still kinda likely Craig. He is sweet and silly and amuses me with his hobbies. Did anyone see Sonja all over him on WWHL last night? Good lord she was in fine form and Craig looked terrified! Reminded me of The Graduate! Lol
Sonja was in rare form… over served perhaps.. Craig and Bobby and Daniel were nice to her. Andy..loved every seconds.
I didn’t think Craig looked terrified by Sonja, I think he was wondering what it would be like to sleep with an older woman & if he had a chance with her! LOL!
I have been waiting ALL DAY for someone to offend me regarding mama’s boys and now you’ve gone and done it!!
I dont get Chelsea AT. ALL. She flirts with Shep and acts as if her and Austen are just friends so its as much as her fault as Sheps really that Shep kissed her. Then when she is around Austen she acts as if he is the only one she wants so really she is the main problem.
And is it me or does anyone else think that Cameron would be with Shep if she wasn’t married?! Maybe she is living through Chelsea and that is why she is keeps pushing Shep to go after her and not freaking just let it go!!! Even when Shep says well she pretty much chose Austen Cameron wasn’t having that shit lol…she was adament of Shep to win Chelsea back and Cam has always hung out with Shep since season one. I know guys and girls can be best friends but she gives me the vibe that she is crush in on him and always has been tbh.
I agree – I think Cam is trying to live vicariously through Chelsea. Cam did the “proper” thing by marrying a doctor, while Shep is just the opposite of Jason.
Cameron has been motherly toward Shep.. done and over with. Cameron is having her own child now.
Shep’s grab them by the pussy attitude really calls for more commentary. I’m so disappointed in him.
Sheps eloquent vocabulary, proper etiquette and social graces reads very American Psycho to me
I TOTALLY agree with you. Shep is responsible for his own behavior, and his behavior is disgusting. The fact that he kept trying to kiss someone against their will is downright creepy. The fact that Whitney dismissed it as not a big deal, is downright disturbing.
And now we know that Shep serially goes after his friend’s girls. And if his behavior towards Chelsea is any indication, he repeatedly tries to kiss girls against their wills. And then he dismisses it as being a guy or worse as being too drunk to remember.
I think I am done with this show. It really should be called “40 and 50-Something Year Old Poon Hounds and the Women Who Make Excuses for Them.”
I was so happy to read that someone totally agrees with me. It seems so obvious to me that this whole show really, and this story about Chelsea and Shep is wrong and like a big fat advert for rape culture and drunken frat boy antics. I don’t understand how there are so many other WOMEN out there commenting on websites saying that things like this are somehow the woman’s fault. Like if a woman is not a complete virgin who is being held down and sexually penetrated by an ugly stranger while she cries and screams “NOOOO!!!!” then it’s somehow okay and it’s not really wrong. I’m so sick of all of the excuses. “Well she’s a slut anyways,” “she used to like him,” “she flirts with him sometimes,” “it’s not like she’s never been kissed,” “at least he’s cute,” “they’re friends so it doesn’t matter,” etc etc etc.
I enjoyed shepherd the first few years, but now he’s a younger Trav. Not sure why he thinks getting wasted and picking up women is fun at his age. In fact, the show made me glad to not be rich, because apparently you never grow up.
I don’t put much stock in the Kinsey scene. Kathryn is way too self involved to parent in any event. Crocodile tears. It was sad to see she still hopes for a relationship with Trav. Looked like she was going to say that and caught herself.
Personally, I like Austen and Chelsea. Team Naomi here. How could you not resent someone who is laying around, dreaming up projects, thin skinned and demands total devotion ? No words for Landon. Ugh. And yes, Trav was slurring words at lunch.
The only one who looks better this season is Whitney.
She’s used to be so cute and charming. I just cringe when he’s on my tv now. I’d love to see a side by side comparison of him then and now. It’s actually kind of sad. I think Shep adores Cameron but she’d never be interested in him.
SHEP used to be so cute and charming …
There was one, very redeeming quality about this episode… We didn’t see Ms. Pat once! Not one single staged scene with her and Landon.
Rewatching, and the editing is confusing. In the Sapphire shop scene, the saleswoman is holding a black/red/houndstooth skirt. Next scene, Cameran is wearing it.
There is a difference in the personality of the Kathryn blue long-sleeve talking head, and the pink sleeveless top talking head. The contour in her cheeks is really dark, too. Such a pretty girl…
And I noted Chelsea fibbing to Kathryn, saying that Cameran was in the area, so she got invited to the shopping trip.
It is like a mystery puzzle.
PS a show about Shep boozing and womanizing is dumb. Consistent with Bravos misogyny, but dumb. I guess there’s a frat boy audience somewhere.
Please let Landon fall off that dock and be eaten by wildlife. I can’t stand her.
Just catching up with this episode. Landon is a POS! Her dad is handing her a job, because he’s still paying all of her bills and she is ” oh but daddy I want to make my website work on my own”. WTF? She does nothing on her own….her daddy pays her bills and she rebuffs his plea to actually make some cash. Complete asshat, user of parents that is beyond words. Landon clements is horrible to friends. Family , everyone. She needs to fall and fall hard
