Southern Charm Savannah: Paintballs of Fire

August 15, 2018 by tamaratattles 35 Comments

We pick up on this episode after the Christmas and New Years break. There is snow in Savannah! That almost never happens. Hannah and Louis are back from their holiday trip to Denver. Daniel wants the clan to get together to go paintballing.

Hagood has successfully made her first batch of saké. It’s 22% alcohol. She’s also getting ready to paint Catherine’s portrait. Catherine and Lyle went to the mountains together for New Year’s Eve. Brandon finds out that Catherine and Lyle don’t even know anything about each others finances. Brandon thinks that Lyle wants the lifestyle he will have if he marries Catherine more than just wanting Catherine.

Hannah goes down to Saint Simon’s to meet up with three of her best friends because one of them got engaged over the holidays. Saint Simon’s has changed so much since I lived there. I don’t recognize this restaurant and have no idea where it could be on the island. Hannah is so ready to get married but Louis isn’t. Hannah tells her friends if he doesn’t get it together by the end of the year she’s going to cut bait and run. Her friends remind her that they have been having this conversation for five years. I don’t see why Hannah is so dead set on marrying Louis. How much money can you make selling socks? Hannah cries when the girls explain that Louis is not what she wants. 

Daniel and Louis rag on Lyle for taking Catherine to North Carolina for New Years. Daniel has been working so much that he hasn’t been out with the guys. Lyle says that they all work and he thinks Daniel is bullshitting them about trying to be a morning person. Then Daniel out of the blue let’s the bomb drop that Catherine sleeps with other guys. It seems that only Lyle was unaware of this information. Daniel is a mean drunk. Lyle says that Catherine can hook up with whoever she wants to. Daniel is really mean to Lyle. Lyle admits that it hurts him that Catherine sleeps around.

Hannah and Louis meet up at his new office. Louis trashes Lyle to Hannah and lets her know that Lyle did in fact know about all the cheating. I don’t think any of these people actually like each other. Nonetheless, they all get on the party bus and head off to shoot each other with paint balls. This is guaranteed to be ugly. Catherine wiped out on black ice and hurt her leg so she will be an easy target. Daniel brings two random friends.

The teams are Brandon, Lyle and the girls versus the other guys. This will be a slaughter. The girl’s team is called Team Vagine. Le sigh. Paint balls apparently hurt a lot. Team Vagine actually won.

The next stop on the party bus is a bar. When they talk about new year’s resolutions, Lyle’s resolution is to find a new girlfriend. Brandon, who is normally sane, takes Catherine and Hannah into the other room. He says that Lyle’s resolution was mean. WTF? Every guy on this show razzes Lyle for staying with his cheating girlfriend, so when he announces he’s ready  to move on, how is that mean? Catherine has been moving on their entire relationship apparently. Even Louis says that Lyle was being a dick. Why is this whole relationship suddenly Lyle’s fault? Thank you Hannah for pointing out that Catherine is responsible for the demise of her relationship too.

I don’t like the scenes with Daniel and his family. Daniel is having second thoughts about his call center idea. Daniel is depressed. Daniel wants to leave Savannah. He only came here to take care of the family business while his father was in prison. He’s resentful. Daniel says he wants to break all ties and be free to whatever he wants. He literally said he needs to find himself. His dad thinks this is ridiculous.

Next week: Catherine gets her portrait done. Hagood takes her sake to an expert for advice. Catherine continues to deny her relationships with other men and there is yet another breakup scene with Lyle and Catherine, and most importantly, Ashley comes to an all cast party!

    I must have zoned out halfway through this show because I do not remember the paintball scenes at all.
    How did this show get renewed for this season?

      Well, that’s the way I feel after watching SC Savannah.

    Feels like the producers realized partway through how boring this cast is so have tucked in Ashley scenes here and there to try to liven things up. Good luck.

    Every episode of this show is exactly the same. Hannah hopes Louis proposes so she can feel like the last 5 years weren’t a waste and get on the babymaking track before time runs out. Louis hopes Hannah stays with him without him making any changes. Lyle pines for Catherine to commit to him and not trear him like crap so he can not feel like a failure or outsider in Savannah moneyed society. Catherine hopes Lyle stays obsessed with her without her having to make any changes. rinse repeat with these four.

    Hagood, Daniel, and Brandon are just kind of there without their stories being intertwined with anyone else and no narrative tension would be lost without them part of the cast.

      I didn’t think this episode sucked as bad as they usually do. I totally agree about them editing Ashley in to breakup the snoozefest. Brandon and Hagood are two great editions. I don’t get house Catherine is the center of the story line when she literally has no storyline and isn’t truthful about her extracurricular activities.

        Oh, man, Catherine is such a snore fest.
        I also think that Ashley brought something to the show last year.
        I like Hagood and Brando, too, but the rest are just make me ZZZZZZZZ out.

    I feel equally bad for Daniel and Hagood when they show them with their families. Hagood’s mother and Daniel’s father could easily complete for worst parent in Savannah for how unsupportive they are of their kids. I’ve liked Brandon in the past, but I really didn’t care much for him this episode. He’s just enabling Catherine to think that she’s as perfect as she thinks she is.

      I totally agree with what you said about Brandon: usually like how funny he is, but he was just feeding Catherine’s delusions in this episode.

      I’m particularly shocked how critical and heartless Daniel’s father is, considering the whole reason Daniel felt he had to go back to Savannah was because his father went to prison.

        Daniel looked like he was going to cry when his father was telling him he didn’t think it was a good time for Daniel to leave the business. Daniel’s brother seems to be as big a jerk as his father is. It just made me so sad watching that.

        In one hand he was saying, ‘you didn’t have to do this’. ‘You’re an adult.’ But then when Daniel said he wanted to leave the family business, it was ‘this isn’t a good time’. Unbelievable. Daniel doesn’t deserve this, he is obviously a good person.

        Haygood’s mother is just awful. I get anxiety every time she’s on screen.

        Catherine seems drunk to me in every scene.

    I like Hannah. I wish she were with a guy who is as mature as she is. Louis seems nice enough, but he just wants to party. I thought her friends were a little harsh with her.

    Catherine always seems like she is on something to me.

      Totally agree about Catherine. She is always in some sort of daze and never actually says anything of worth.
      Doesn’t seem happy in any way.

      Yes. But I like Hagood and Daniel together. They’re both entrepreneurial, devoted to their families yet somewhat independent, creative, athletic, yearning to be free spirit types. Plus, they would look cute together I think.

    I’ll bet the actual issue between Daniel and his father is simply money. I’m guessing our Daniel wants a large chunk of it so that he can fund the idea that is so good he can’t even describe it. (Hmmmmm?)

    His father, on the other hand, believes Daniel has already been paid well for his efforts. As in, no one else would he give a large chunk of money to, in same scenario. Again, I’m guessing of course, but a loan at low interest might solve my imaginary problem. I’m sure Daniel imminently replaceable as Manager of service staff.

    As I was watching this last night I was thinking how much I disliked every single one of them. I was ready to delete the show from the DVR series list and then…..Ashley walked in the door. OK, I’ll give it another week.

    This season is a snorefest. The characters are either not like-able or so sad in their own delusion that we find ourselves yelling at the TV.

    Daniel: Get the hell out of town and leave your ungrateful family forever. Your bro and your dad are mean and expect never ending loyalty that is unreasonable.

    Hannah: Break up with Louie. You seem like a reasonable normal woman who should receive the love that you need and want. Louie is a man child and waiting around for him is futile.

    Catherine: I can’t. Even. Comment. On. The. Mess.

    Lyle: Move away and move on.

    Hagood: You are an ambitious young person who should follow her dreams and ignore her harpy mom.

    Brandon: Start a design show and make millions of dollars. You are TV gold.

    Ashley: Delusional and needs meds. Don’t miss the mess with her.

    The end.

    I can’t stand the awkward forced conversations that Hannah seems to be scripted to start. That we all know will inevitably start a fight or an awkward moment. High and low of the year. New Years resolution. Ugh. Who talks about the highs and lows of their year at Christmas dinner? Please tell me if that’s a thing. It made me cringe.

    It might be salvageable if Ashley comes back, they get rid of Catherine, get rid of Louis, and give Brandon more air time. Putting two dysfunctional couples on the show is not TV drama gold. Same for SCNO. The formula is a gold mine —best of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous set on some of the USA’s most histories and beautiful cities. But, ultimately, it is about THE PEOPLE and casts on both Savannah and New Orleans ,,, we just don’t CARE about them. They are narcissistic, entitled and BORING.

    2018 Seems to be the Season of Mean for Bravo/Haymaker. Every show is jam packed with people being all nasty to one another. There just really doesn’t seem to be any need for it. The Charms, The HW’s, Below Deck so far MDLNY has been ok on that front but we aren’t done yet!!!!

    I thoroughly enjoyed last season, and even then I was surprised that this show got a 2nd season. This season is truly horrible. I am very surprised that Bravo aired it at all- It is dreadful boring and lacking a charismatic villain or two. Lovely people, just bad tv.

    Southern Charm New Orleans has a much better and charismatic cast-

    OK I am 100% convinced that LYLE is on heroin or OxyContin or SOMETHING! The dude can barely keep his eyes open during every single show, and at first I thought he was just mentally challenged, but then he has (brief) moments of clarity. Why do people do drugs on national tv and think no one’s gonna notice?? Duh!!

    Tamara, I agree that Daniel is a mean drunk. When he was playing pool and starting sniping at Lyle about trusting Catherine? His rage came out of nowhere.
    And what man would stand there and let someone bully them about their girlfriend’s antics?
    Lyle is a wussy. Shit, they’re all wussies.
