It seems like a million years to me since the last episode of RHOA and literally I have slept at least half the time since the last episode. Oh here is some tea, which is probably obvious but was admitted to me by a source, the reason RHOOC reunion is on right after this is for the RHOA lead-in, yet Married to Medicine who has already been picked up for another season is being dicked around with by Bravo.
I PROMISE you I have a very good source, but nothing they are saying makes a lot of sense and the source agrees with me at times while still defending the ratings in “the only group that matters for ads” about this shitastic season. It makes no sense to me but I am not a Bravo suit.
I have two Christmas movies to get to where I will likely sing to the dog after this and RHOOC so I am ready to get on with it since Banjo has been in a funk along with me because I don’t maintain his regimented schedule: Afternoon pee. Random pets, 7 pm dinner with a special flair for the kibble which is now at 6 pm because he DOES NOT FALL BACK, addition pee break in the middle of an 8 pm recap, a poop break during the 9 pm recap, or perhaps ten, and more water shortly thereafter. He’s such a taskmaster.
In other news, Andy Cohen is so thirsty to be on camera or on the radio that he does IG stories all day, I have to say I really like them because they are in NYC and it’s all very exciting to me. Anyway today or yesterday it was Santa Con and he talked to two black female cops. One told him to bring back Phaedra and the other told him to bring back Kenya. I love how he likes to pretend that is up to him (it isn’t, he is no longer a suit and is a producer in name only which means he gets the episodes in advance.) He does have the ear of the real suits, so… “potato, Potahto” I guess.
Sorry I got distracted by 60 minutes and want to know if I can wrap books for the Juvenile Delinquent Center in my area.
Okay on to much more important things /eyeroll
In other news, Nene is out celebrating her birthday and WHOOPING IT UP as Vicki would say. She need a whole week for this. While this cute if life is good… Le Sigh.
Holy Hell. Leon stayed the night night with Cynthia. Not like that but GURL… you need to make this work. He is miles about this Mike Hill dude. We neeeeeeeed more Leon. Please girlfriend. Make this happen. Noelle is going to Howard to study dentistry. I know you fools think that Cynthia is boring but that was probably the best scene of this episode. Co-parenting with sexy, hot as hell dad.
I didn’t even both to post the story about how Shamari and Ron owe nearly a half a million dollars to the IRS and basically said they had more important things to spend their money on. But they are going out with Kandi and Todd. No one cares about the Shamari and Ron being in an open relationship. Or Kandi’s. Do you. No one cares. Blah, blah, blah Dennis tattoos names oh himself from everyone.
It’s time for a Tanya scene. I have gotten eleventy billion offers for interviews with Tanya. The only person who has offered more is …well no one… but Leanne Locken is a close second. I really don’t want to know or meet or talk to these people in real life. I learned that a long time ago. That said, Tanya has long dollars and Nene’s dollar is dwindling.
Porsha and Kandi go to lunch. Kandi brings up all the tattoos on Dennis. My narcolepsy is falling in for real. Not just because this is boring. It’s a real thing with me. I just want to go to sleep. Kandi just wants Porsha to take things slow. Porsha is not listening.
Cynthia and her kid go out with Leon. Cynthia wants to let her kid drink. I love Leon. He is the sanity of this scene.
I’m telling you right now I cannot do a RHOOC reunion tonight. Sorry. I’ll do it tomorrow.
Nene has a Boobs and Bourbon party as one does when your husband has cancer. I’m so tired. And what goes better with a Bourbon party than a wine tasting. Oh, Nene. Your hood never fails to show.
Yovanna seems to be a huge problem from the start. I need for this to be over, it’s my nap time. I hate almost everyone on this show.
I love how Kandi says that Nene and Gregg met at the strip club. Then Nene calls out all the college educated people. That’s really funny.
Then Yovanna???? Who Dis Bitch? Says that she was besties with Eva in college. Say what?
The trip to Chateau Elan is supposed to be Gregg’s idea for a couples trip. Apparently, Yovanna or whatever her name is hooked up with Dennis. But did she get a tattoo? I really need to sleep again. So sorry y’all. I can’t with Orange County Reunion tonight. I promise to make it up to you tomorrow.
I am so over Bravo.
Porsha tells Dennis she is pregnant.
I literally paid no attention to the rest of your recap (don’t watch the show, don’t give a crap about anyone on the show, but religiously read every recap regardless) after your Banjo regiment comments. My dogs/babies have lived in a similar environment since they were born.
One daddy (me) has been self-employed and at home nearly 100% of the time and they are completely amenable to our non-schedule… except for dinner time which needs to be almost to the minute or the will remind you. They will always go to bed with first person to go to sleep and stay in bed with the last person to awake for the day. Potty time is at their discretion because of a doggie door. But my dogs are small. I imagine Banjo would need a doggie door that big enough for a human to enter your home through.
Big dogs are wonderful. Bit small dogs do have their advantages, lol.
I have a female corgi who is 30lbs. I can’t carry her anymore since I broke 4 ribs in June. She refuses to go to bed with me since I bought an entire new bedrooms on set & moved the bed around . She stays in the family room. I hate it.
I actually enjoyed what you had to say about Banjo more than I enjoyed this episode. I just can’t with Porsha so…ugh.
Thanks for the recap. I just can’t even watch RHOA this season. It’s awful. Just my HO.
I’m gonna start off by saying everyone on Twitter tonight was so confused on how Tanya is so damn fabulous and everything this show needs but lost her peach and Shamari and Eva got one ?.
Marlo is ghetto trash for bringing one of her highest paying clients to dinner tonight. That man thought he was going straight to her house and pay her after but she just up and pulled a fast one on him and took him to dinner with friends ? . She does not need to return next season at all.
Kandi talks about Porsha in every scene and it’s irritating to watch her do this shit every Sunday. She needs to go next season along with Ms. Lake Bailey.
Yovanna was ghetto and cracked me up in every scene ? she was definitely giving me Kenya season 1 vibes and I wanna see more of her.
This season is just terrible from casting to storylines and if I was bravo I’d bring Phaedra and her lying behind back next season.
Season 12?
Nene
Kandi
Phaedra
Porsha
Eva
Tanya
Shamari
Yovanna
Respectfully I did not enjoy this recap. I understand that you don’t like the show anymore but your recaps don’t really tell us anything. Maybe that is why your comments are dwindling
You win some, you lose some, but you live to fight another day!
Dwindling comments may have something to do with dwindling viewers…
I read every recap because I adore TT’s perspective and honestly when it comes to RHOA? I’d much rather read about Banjo’s lifestyle (that he’s become accustomed to…the sweet life from where I’m sittin’) than actually have watched this bologna.
I really don’t want to comment every week that I quit this…I’m still very curious and FORCE myself not to watch every week, um, going through a bit of HW withdrawal here. I think I quit NJ too (haven’t watched, deleted recorded episodes…yikes!) and I miss Margaret already!
Thank you TT for your recaps as well as the tea. No way I’d have quit on my without your site!
I feel the same way.TT is a humorist and I feel like I know her.
It’s TT’s blog & she can recap however she desires. The comments are down because no one can stay awake through this garbage
I stopped watching rhoa a few seasons ago but come her specifically for her writing. Her recaps are better than watching the show even if she’s writing about her dog or what she ate or whatever the heck. It’s like performance art, and I live for it.
Are they running out of places to film in ATL?? They filmed at Uncle Julio’s again tonight (Kandi/Shamari/husbands). They filmed there once before when Phaedra was trash talking Kandi. But I love the Tex-Mex food at that restaurant…used to go there often on Friday evenings for swirl margaritas and enchiladas.
Then they filmed at Chateau Elan again. It’s beautiful, but it’s a vineyard/winery, so why did they go there to have bourbon??
Both those places brought back wonderful memories of my years in Atlanta.
And this is also why I love Tamaratattles! I love hearing about personal experiences followers have in the HW setting, city, on their trips, related experiences in their lives, food/restaurants, clothing choices/shopping/tastes, friendship/relationships, memories etc.
???Lol! Uncle Julio twice?. Yuck! Uncle Julio is not high on good Tex Mex. I am thinking the 5 stars restaurants has decline filming opportunities. The free advertisement is just not worth having those fools come into their place of business arguing about weaves, who is thirsty,my house is bigger, licking boxes, and the list goes on with the low class conversations of RHOA.
This episode was actually good and much better than previous ones. I’m interested to see how much of Shamari’s tea Kandi is going to spill after that comment she made about assuming Shamari was cheating. Also, if the rumors are true that Shamari’s open relationship was with Missy Elliott, it will be interesting to see how this plays out in her relationship with Eva. It’s taking awhile but this season is starting to pick up with these new additions.
Leon is too well raised or too smart to dip his fine tie in this mess. Out of all the women I really only like Kandi. I can never forgive Porsha her gaffe. Nene is a bully. Eva remains to be seen…I would prefer Shamea. And this new girl DeVoe seems to be phony.
Thanks for the recap and get it together, girl! You know this is a busy night for recaps and we are depending on you.
Off topic, I must see the opera singer who was interviewed tonyon 60 min. He is talented and has a great back story.
Leon is everything, no need for volume in his scenes. I didn’t notice the dialogue at all.
More Leon , less Porsha-less everybody. That man should get all of the peaches. Lol.
Cynthia MUST stay on the show so we can continue to see Leon. Let’s start the Twitter campaign now.
Seriously, I like how Leon and Cynthia co-parent. They seem to have done a good job with Noelle. She looks like she will be a productive member of society.
Maybe Nene is probably trying to keep her mind off of Greg’s illness by traveling and partying. I’m trying to give her the benefit of the doubt but she’s making it hard. Out of respect to her veteran status, she should stay on the show.
Kandi has plenty of things she can discuss- her businesses, cute baby, Mama Joyce, etc. Why does she spend so much time on Porsha? Did the producers put Kandi up to it?
Eva is obviously trying to keep a peach and return next year.
As a side note, Lovanna was on Say Yes to the Dress a few years back. She was an over the top bride, wanted a dress that showed her backside and was being rude to her friends.
Ronnie still brings in money with his singing group. He and wife may not manage money well, unfortunately. Plus, he has been into real estate for quite a few years.
He and his group, New Edition, sell out 2500-5000 seat venues all over the country. My good friend goes every time they have a show. She goes with about 6-7 of her friends, they are big New Edition fans. I went to a show last month, young and old people were there, singing every song. It was a good show.
I appreciate your recaps TT, fell better. Get some rest.
I saw the opera singer story tonight too. What a great story!
As for RHOA, I too do not understand Kandi constantly talking about Dennis. Doesn’t she have better things to do with her life?
Let’s give Leon A.L.L. T.H.E. P.E.A.C.H.E.S !
True dat ! Leon is dreamy !
Excellent idea!
TT- my goldens don’t fall back either and they ask to pee and poop the same time every morning and night. Love your recap about Banjo. I feel like I know him. I still think Archie is the hottest blonde in the OC.
What a strange dinner party. Not giving up on this show quite yet. We’ll see.
Over it too!
Cynthia acted like a fool with Noelle and Leon. I think Leon is the one that wouldn’t commit.
Not a fan of Sharmari and hubby.
I am over Bravo too. Would rather hear about Banjo. I also like Leon. I still salivate over him as Christ in the Like a Prayer video. Cynthia is so boring but I do like seeing her with Leon & her daughter. Thanks for taking one for the team. RHOA sucks without Kenya. Have a good week.
Yovanna was vying for camera time, with all those nasty comments
You can tell Leon is a good guy – he’s been supportive of Cynthia
Everything else was meh about this episode
I died laughing at NeNe decorating the room at the venue. It was horrible. She just threw fake petals and cheap beads in the corner.
Just drop the show…..every recap is a complaint…..lmaooo
I loved the scenes with Cynthia and her family. Leon is fine AF, I would watch all day if he were a regular.
They seem to be gunning for Eva. Last week the group talked shit about her having Nene in her wedding. Yovanna was GHET-TO! It was uncomfortable to watch her come after Eva for some BS. Eva didn’t remember her? Get a life and get over it.
Yovanna was wasted out of her mind. I was appalled when she referred to the server as a bitch that needed to get her a drink. Her companion needed to get her to be quiet. I wonder if she was embarrassed when she saw her behavior.
I can’t with Porsha. She’s so extra. I get that she’s in love but she’s a annoying to watch. If the season continues to prominently feature her, I’ll read your recaps to see if the episodes are worth watching.
I actually enjoyed this episode. Cynthia was so endearing, and Porscha was lovely. I really was happy for Porscha in that moment.
I have to say….I’ve actually been really liking this season of RHOA!! I know a lot of you don’t, but for some reason I’m enjoying it! ….should I just put myself in the corner?
NO! Someone might as well be enjoying it. 🙂 I’m just having to really focus to pay attention to anything lately.
I trust it’ll get better, right!? Nonetheless, I’ve been loving Porsha’s delusional love and loving on rolling my eyes at Nene. Cynthia is boring as usual, but thank goodness for Leon! It’s been a fun season so far!
Maybe your iron is low. I was like that too and wanted to go to bed as soon as I got up every morning and I was very anemic
Count me in, I’m really enjoying this season.
Kandi looks so skinny.
Forcing myself to finish this episode.. *does the Vicki gulvanson snore*
Booooring!
This season is so boring!
It seems more staged than usual. I’m not used to Kandi playing along for fake storylines, but her constant talking about Dennis and feuding with Porsha just screams FAKE to me.
Is it just me or does Dennis remind you of the bald white guy Porsha dissed on a blind date last season?
Seems like she’s just settling for him.
I didn’t get to see a lot of the show because I was in the Emergency Room waiting for a hospital room. Got admitted because they found clots in my lungs and one in my heart. Had to do something so I could take my mind away from thoughts of having a stroke or heart attack.
I would like to know who that ghetto chick was that insisted that she was “That Bi**h” in college? Who cares, we’re we supposed to be impressed? Who was the guy next to her shaking his head when she said that gutter trash comment?
Porsche gave me morning sickness watching her laugh at her “Birthday Present” to chubby boy.
That’s all I saw.
Can someone send me some real food to Eastside Cardiac Unit? I hate hospital food…lol
Oh no, hope you are doing okay!! The ghetto chick was a friend of a friend of Eva’s in college that was offended that Eva didn’t remember her. The guy next to her was/is either her husband or boyfriend.
I enjoyed watching Porsha too, she makes me smile.
Hang in there and get home soon, and I’ll say a little prayer for you.
Why would she get offended? Wasn’t college a long time ago? LOL
Her male companion needs to run as fast as he can, cause if her claim to fame is being a bitch in college, then it’s all downhill for her now.
Thanks for the prayers. I’m scared but hiding it. There are a lot of clots in my lungs. But God is watching over me. ??
