Sorry for the delay. I’m struggling to muster up the energy to function lately. But I’m ready to give it a go now.
It’s time to leave the ghost-ridden plantation. At least for the ones to survive the night. Justin was so scared that he took Kelsey and left to stay in a hotel. If i were Kelsey, I be dumping him on the car ride home. On the way home they stop to play some golf.
At lunch Tamica goes into a whole long story about her dad dying when she was five. Because we can’t go five minutes on this show without some depressing morbid shit. I had such high hopes for this show. Barry times to shut her up by asking her to pass the sauce and she has a hissy fit about. I don’t think Barry will be getting the sauce. Her brother says that Tamica losing her dad at an early age has made her an attention seeker. And then her says she is insecure. Oh Lord. Now you’ve said the “I” word. The hit dog is about to howl.
The boys somehow are able to go golfing without the ladies. They must be so happy for the peace and quiet. Barry talks to Jeff about Tamica and her need to prioritize. Jeff suggests they try bondage. Jeff is very serious. Jeff could never in a million years be a Dom.
The girls go shopping at a cute country store with romantic male ghost. Tamica feels like Barry doesn’t listen to her. I wish I didn’t have to listen to her either.
Back home in NOLA, Tamica says she doesn’t have time to eat with her family. It’s simply not a priority. She seems to be able to eat with them if a camera crew is there, though.
Justin goes jewelry for a one year anniversary present for Kelsey. They are at a store with six figure items. This is too ridiculous. Dude lives at home with his parents. What does he even do for work? Barry bought himself a swatch. I didn’t see what Justin bought. Whatever it was given by the store for promotional time.
Tamica brings her daughter home from a kids party and she is full of attitude. Wherever does she get that from? Apparently, it was a mother daughter modeling event. There was a raffle and she didn’t win so she started crying. The kid’s version is that her mother always ruins everything. The little girl says her mama always yells at her. She just wants to go to her room. Again, with the sad stuff. At least Barry is listening to the kid.
Justin and Kelsey go out to a fancy dinner to celebrate their anniversary. They both say this has been the best year of their lives. I am starving to death and they ordered redfish. I love blackened redfish. It’s not really easy to find in Atlanta. I used to go to Copeland’s for it. I should do that. If it didn’t require getting dressed and getting out of bed. Justin gives her a necklace. You can tell she was hoping for a proposal.
Barry takes Tamica out on a dinner date. They can’t even recall the last time they had a date. The food porn on this episode is killing me. Barry tries to tell Tamica they are losing their connection. Tamica needs to make time for him and the kids. She is not listening. Tamica finally agrees to work something out.
Next week: It’s Easter. Even that looks depressing.
I love the men on this show. I also love the scenery. It’s such a beautiful and mystical place.
I am hoping the women get better. Some more than others.
I don’t hate this show, there are worse still on and on and on. (winking)
Hope you are doing better.
Justin is a sports attorney and reps some of the Saints players, so he can hold his own in a nice jewelry store…even if it wasn’t product placement by Bravo.
As for living with his parents, it is while his childhood home undergoes some extensive structural repairs leftover from Katrina. I don’t blame him, I would have my kids do the same thing. He and Kelsey are my favorite couple on the show. If he proposes…I hope it is not on camera.
Tamica brings this show down. She has a great guy and takes him for granted. At least Jeff and his wife got along this week. There is something missing from this show I can’t put my finger on.
Fun. Fun is what is missing. The guys brings some fun when they are on their own, but most of the women are just depressing, mean, narcissists.
Not to mention entitled cunts. And not as smart as they believe they are. (Says the woman with a supposedly high IQ who is overdrawn on both bank accounts and old and poor and alone. But I do have great escape aptitude.)
They best be careful this does not go the way of SC Savannah. It seems to have the same problems. Such a shame, because it is tough to make NOLA boring. But Bravo seems to have found a way to do it.
I want to love this show because I love NOLA. Even though it’s been fifteen years since I’ve been there ; I enjoy seeing places I know & drooling over the food !!!
Tamica is the worse. She over talks everyone else, wants to be center of attention, won’t listen to anyone. I felt sorry for her child. Children do need reprimanded at times but they also need to be listened to & talked to. They are not adults. They grow up too quickly & you can’t get this time back. She is unfeeling & unaffectionate to all her family.
In the end when she loses her husband ( I hope he gets custody of the children) she will blame him because she can never take ownership of her faults/ wrongdoings.
Actually glad to see Reagan and Jeff having getting along. Al least this week no jabs from Reagan about Jeff.
I can’t understand why Tamica’s daughter looks MISERABLE in every scene with her mother. The only time she looked happy is when she was playing with her uncles (Tamica’s brother). It was honestly disturbing. I know this is a show and we only get to see mere minutes of their lives, but I found myself asking why someone like Tamica had kids if they just seem like a burden to her. That’s the way this is coming across.
Tamika is AWFUL!
That guy Jon….
OMG! He makes me sick!
Every painting he does is LIFE CHANGING.
He is so full of SUBSTANCE.
His sh*ts can even change your life.
Get the F over yourself.
What an asshole….You couldn’t ask for that ugly necklace to be put in a longer non ring shape box?
Of all the people to hate on this show, you pick Jon? The famous artist with the eight pack? WTF is wrong with you? He’d the shiny kernel of corn in all of this crap.
I’m going to presume you are a guy since you thought that tiny necklace came in a ring box.
No! I am a woman who can’t stand arrogance, and that guy Jon thinks his every move is life changing to the entire world!
And no, it wasn’t exactly a ring shape box, but it could have been! He should have asked for a long box imo, since he knew she was hoping for a ring.
I really can’t stand Tamika the most. SO dismissive to everyone,.
Jon is full of himself. I would also like to be full of himself.
Oops. Too crude? He’s hot. More Jon please.
LOL! ♥
And obviously they are editing him that way too….Repeating every time he says something like that.
I don’t love Jon either, but he is young, single, and in that self-centered, egotistical/cocky phase of life. I think he will outgrow it as he matures. He is trying to promote his art, so I get what he is doing, and he has his sister to knock him down a few levels. Idk I am in my late 30s, it helps to remember where I was during that time in my life and tolerate him for now.
Well said, and true.
Well said, and true. I agree.
The bald dudes on this show have the nicest hair and by that I mean, Jeff and Jon’s hair styles are TERRIBLE! They showed a pic of Jon when he was younger and his hair was so much cooler than it is now.
I hope Tamica realizes how awesome her husband is because he’s going to walk if she keeps treating him poorly. Also I never understand people who “don’t cook”. What do you eat at home other than take out? Cereal, toast and frozen meals?
I think women like Tamica thinks it cute to say they don’t cook.
And that they use their ovens for storage. Cooking is life. Cooking FOR someone is sexy. Cooking WITH someone is romantic. Clueless bitches. It’s like in the olden days, people thought being pale showed they were wealthy enough not to be toiling in the fields. Later, a tan showed you were wealthy enough to play tennis, sail, ride horses (or be the copy in an early Tampax ad). It used to be that only “peasants” cooked. Nowadays, every luxe home has a professional-level kitchen. If only for the personal chef.
I LOVE the show with just the men and the scenery.
Tamica hates the word insecure because she hates the truth.
Barry and Jeff are probably in shock now that they are watching these episodes and seeing the horrible shrews they are chained to (for now). I’m glad Reagan was calm this week.
Jon is cute but he needs to dial it down a bit. I’m hoping his “life changing” comment was sarcastic humor cause boy can’t be serious.
I wish Justin had placed Kelsey’s necklace in an actual necklace box instead of a ring shaped box because as much as she tried she could not hide her disappointment. I think as he watches Tamika and Reagan he is realizing what a jewel Kelsey is and settle some of his commitment phobia.
My husband doesn’t usually comment much on “my” TV shows but Sunday night during SC NO he said “you know, that girl (Kelsey) is really ugly. And this show isn’t as good as the Charleston one.” The angle they were shooting Kelsey in for that scene did make her unattractive, and SC NO is definitely not the OG SC! I had hope but there is really no one that I care about on the show except the pity I feel for Jeff…and the annoyance at Regan and her family inventing vermouth or bitters or whatever. Sheesh.
Yes, I agree about Kelsey (is that against the rules)?
Technically yes. In the commenting rules that neither of you seem to have read, state that we are not a big fan of attacking people’s looks. Instead we talk about their behavior.
That rule is being broken A LOT lately, and it’s quite disturbing. I certainly would not marry someone who spoke about women in that way either.
How about Tamica attempting to turn on the oven!!? How in the hell as a grown ass adult, do u NOT know how to turn on an oven! Hell, the words on/off are typically written pretty close to the corresponding buttons!
I still am liking this show, tho
New Orleans and St Francisville, LA as backdrops to any show makes me want to watch more and more!!!
