Today as I was preparing for this RHOSLC recap, I received emails to multiple sites reporting that there is a video out there (I didn’t hear it) where Mary is complaining about her congregations poor contributions to their tithing. Apparently it was her birthday and she only received a dozen or two cards with money in them. She went off calling her followers poor and or just stingy. They need to step it up of they want to continue paying for her plastic surgeries, skin lightening, designer duds and elaborate tea parties with Louis Vuitton ear buds. Why do people fleecing their flock feel so comfortable going on TV where all their vile behavior will be exposed?
Utah really does look beautiful. It is “the very first Park City Fashion Week.” And Meredith’s son Brooks is the youngest designer shows. Brooks is my favorite person on this show, but I know a lot of you don’t care for him. I find him highly entertaining. The Sundance Film Festival is also in town.
For reasons unknown, Jen is skating around her rental in old fashioned roller skates and hula hooping. She’s such a nutbar. One of her relatives is premiering a documentary and she is hosting the VIP party. She is getting read for some sort of party with her fake assistants. She’s so ridiculous and not in a fun way. It’s just annoying. Lisa has many, many events to plan for Sundance. Her poor husband is doing all the heavy lifting while she shouts out the orders.

Jen heads over to Whitney’s house, appropriately dressed in a snake outfit. Then she has an immediate costume change to get in the hot tub. I assume there is a swimsuit under all the black feathers somewhere. Oh yeah. There is a stipper suit under there. Jen thinks it is Cardi B. classy. Those words don’t even go together. Whitney is throwing a party for her husband’s birthday. All Jen wants to do is talk about Mary. Whitney warns Jen not to ruin her husbands party with another altercation with Mary. Jen is shocked.
Party All The Time
We find out that the housekeeper that Mary bosses around all the time is a family member. She says they are not close at all. Meredith Asks Whitney to walk in fashion week. It looks like the birthday party is coming up first. Everyone boards a huge party bus to head to the event. The party is at one of their friends houses! The hostess’s name is Kathryn. I already want to trade her for Mary. There are tons of party guests. Lisa couldn’t make it to the party she has too last minute things to do for her numerous Sundance events.

Mary tries to make amends with Jen. Jen in no way want to make amends with Mary. Jen completely denies screaming at Mary about fucking her grandfather. She clearly doesn’t remember that night. Nothing was resolved.
Jen’s VIP Sundance Party
It’s almost time for the VIP party. But first, we get a scene of Whitney and Heather out on the town. They head to a bar called Punch Bowl Social. It looks like fun place. I love how these two dress like normal people. These are the two fun girls. Heather tells Whitney that she is jealous of her happy marriage. Heather says that she can’t find a man in Utah who likes her. She’s divorced, she drinks, she has three kids. Whitney is a good friend to Heather.

Lots of people turn up for Jen’s cousin’s VIP party. Heather is on the prowl at the party and there are lots of options. Whitney invited Lala and Katie to the party because they were in town for “Lala’s movie premiere.” Lala and Katie want to try to get Heather “laid.” Heather has no game. And her voice sounds terrible. It sounds like she is going hoarse from yelling. But it looks like she got her man anyway. Did they do it in the van? Why is Jen on WWHL tonight? Wasn’t she just on? I guess that was the night everyone was on.
Park City Fashion Show
Oh look! Brooks made the joggers that Sheree only pretended to make. He is sad that his dad will not be at his fashion show. He’s tied up with work in Ohio. Brooks is running super late to his own event. Brooks is super anxious about his show. Then suddenly an alarm goes off in the house and they can’t figure out why. It sounds like a fire alarm but it is some sort of plumbing problem. This freaks Brooks out even more. He arrives 45 minutes late.

Brooks continues to freak out backstage. Whitney is nervous because she is walking in her first show. She and Lisa chat during hair and makeup about Seth not being able to make it. Then he sent Brooks an encouraging video. Brooks is still disappointed. Lisa’s confessional look in that white dress is everything!
Next week, Whitney Dad gets out of sober living. People suspect that Meredith is dating someone.
Meredith’s Morticia dress she modeled in the beginning was hideous and unfortunately I also hated her slicked back hair in her white-dress confessional look. I don’t get it; why would you want to look like you just stepped out of the shower and combed your hair back? I hope RHSLC starts cutting out that “yia-yia-yia-yia” from the music. It is SO annoying! Every clip they switch housewives it is playing! Am I on the only one clawing my ears off? Sorry one last thing- Mary was such a B about her “family” Charlinda(?) “I don’t know anything about her” but she is family and helped her twenty years?? Wow. What a jerk and that’s saying something next to self-important Lisa. Why am I even watching? Happy holidays TT thanks for hanging in there with the recaps for us!
I don’t know if I hear what you hear in the music but I also find it annoying. I thought the dress was nice but agree on the hair. She was gorgeous in those pictures from when she was younger.
After that scene with Mary and her relative/housekeeper and str casually says that she knows nothing about her and that they’re not close, I said out loud that Mary is really crazy. Like certified.
Loved the black dress on Meredith. IMO she is the best dressed on the show.
I agree. Meredith has excellent taste and she is one of the more tolerable members of the cast as well.
She has great taste and is incredibly beautiful
She looks just like Katie Holmes to me.
I don’t want to be mean but Whitney’s dad’s hair though? Thanks, TT. I read you every day. Even though I may not comment much, I always look forward to it. ?
It’s certainly…different. Speaking of hair, I was surprised to see a waiter with pink hair and purple lipstick in Utah.
The dad is lucky to have that amount of hair at his age. And yes the waiters look was so wild ?
Wig! Is it really in doubt?
That’s what I thought. A really cheap one.
Inquiring minds wanna know… Did you notice the big, fat, crooked lips? (Meredith)
No I tried to look didn’t notice much. And forgot which one had the lips you didn’t care for.
This show is ridiculous and I’m here for it, I think. Jen is trying too hard and is crazy AF. Mary is disturbing and crazy AF. Lisa has a crazy voice and I’ll bet my last dollar we find out she’s crazy AF, too. The church/cult thing happening in the SLC culture has all of these women spun up into something strange. I kind of love it.
I so agree about Jen. It’s “ights, cameras, action” with her.
The constant harping about something that’s been apologized for 16x gets to me. But it’s the same thing on all the RH shows. I suppose it’s needed content but I find it wearing.
I still can’t tell Meredith and Lisa apart, but don’t like either one of them. I don’t know how they fit in the same room together — the egos are enormous.
Maybe it’s just typical HW behavior, but I think almost all these women are trying way too hard. The only ones who seem remotely real are Whitney and Heather. I was so glad that Whitney shut Jen down immediately about ruining the birthday party over Mary. She said it in a non-aggressive but effective way. And Jen’s reaction was priceless — she is so caught up in herself, she can’t believe everyone else isn’t on board.
Mary and that scene with her relative — just another example of what a horrible person Mary is. Another one who can’t get her head out of her own ass. I wonder what she thinks when she sees herself on tv. She is so deluded, she probably just thinks she looks good. smdh
Do we have to suffer another HW’s kid’s fashion show/line? Enough already. As if sweat suits are something unusual or stylish. And Brooks’ was nothing that would have gotten him a place in any show. At least he realized it was just because of his mother’s connections. (The cheap gratuitous shot of the sewage backup was typical HW production and why these shows are going downhill.)
I have to wonder if any of these women have real money in their mostly unfurnished rental homes.
Mary is truly disturbing and those eyes… got me thinking about “Ramona crazy eyes”!!!
I also still can’t tell the two brunettes apart.. agree with others that Whitney and Heather are good on this show.
The toilet was actively leaking an no one turned off the water they just screamed -left it and called someone and got ready for the event?
I don’t know if these people are truly rich but they sure are entitled
Turn off the water !!!!
Is it always snowing and cold in Park City?? It is pretty though! As I was reading the recap, I didn’t realize that others didn’t like Brooks…it’s not that I don’t like him…but the way he speaks to his mom (almost every time I’ve heard him) is very bratty and condescending. He seems to like to tell her what to do. I guess I just have an aversion to bratty kids. But, he is funny.
It’s not always snowing in Park city. It is town at an elevation high enough to get snow when weather permits. Snow is usually from Dec- April for sure which is considered ski season. It can come earlier and stay later for sure. It does snow in Slc but that is a few thousnand feet lower in elevation so It has to be that much colder down there for it to snow. Summer In park city and all mountain towns are amazing. Perfect temps, no humidity, green grass and flowers everywhere and tons of activities.
Thank you for the info! I just couldn’t help but notice that these ladies were going out in the snow in their super high, open toed heels lol. And, almost every opening shot shows that it’s snowing. If it were *me* I would just dress better for the weather.
Brooks screaming and the dog shitting on floor was hilarious because it was a real moment. I felt so bad for Meredith having it all fall on her shoulders.
What I would have done personally was turned off the water leaver to the toilet and if that didn’t work I would turn off the master water leaver to the house.
Very funny scene
I have 3 days and they go out every 2 hours why is the dog shitting on the floor?! Why are they not taking him out.
I am guessing the dog had anxiety about the alarm. Assuming it wasn’t edited to seem like it happened at the same time.
did anyone else happy to notice the major nip slips jen had in her “bikini top” when she was in the hot tub? they either found a way to semi sensor it or made her put inserts in at some point, the poor camera person kept having to angle the camera up more. it was highly distracting and there is no way im the only one who noticed it
Yes it was awful. Her boobs are 3x too big for that swimsuit. At the party at her house (I think) she had another slip. Good lord, that is not a cute look
Yes!!!! Her boobs are HUGE! Way too big for her frame and they don’t look good. They legit look like two basketballs…
Meredith? Fran Drescher, The Nanny? Am I the only one that sees this? And I do think she’s gorgeous, but I can’t quit seeing this.
Crooked mouth, raspy voice, yes. But then again I may be thinking of the other one. Suddenly I recall them both having crooked mouths and raspy voices. Help! I fear it’s hopeless and we’ll never no the truth. ?
I have to admit that I have the show on but actively watch it. But from what I’ve see. Whitney and Heather are the only tolerable ones. Heather seems like a genuinely nice person and deserves to find the love of her life. Whitney is so naturally pretty but her talking head looks are no bueno. She looks much better in her regular, everyday makeup and garb.
Anyone else think Meredith and Leah Remini look and sounds do similar?
NO! And someone else said Fran Drescher! LOL. My horrible facial recognition skills just sort of register a blank face for Meredith and Lisa. I need one of them to go blond. 🙂
It’s hopeless Tamara. I’m convinced that they can’t tell each other apart. Just use Meredith/Lisa when referring to them and we’ll take it from there.
Oh wait! One of them gave birth to Brooks. Can we use that in some way to can tell them apart? Brooks+Meredith=BM. Does that help? ?
I heard one of them cut her hair but I don’t know which. Honestly, I don’t know any of their names yet. Except I think Meredith is the divorced one.
Ok I just binged them last 3 episodes. I cannot deal with Mary. She is delusional. I hate people that have money and assume that they are better or important because of it.
The Katie and Lala thing was useless.
I like Whitney and Heather.
I don’t like Brooks. He seems whiney. But what Meredith said about trying to get you kids to care about professionalism and being on time rings true. Someone who is chronically late presents as self centered. He just bugs me. The scene of Meredith and her husband was kind of painful to watch.
I’m still digging it. But Jen needs to either go, or bring it down 10 notches. Overall I think it’s a pretty good cast though. At first I was thinking they were trying to hard — but I think it’s impossible to cast a new franchise w/o the cast being aware of HW stereotypes nowadays.
Good take! We’re always critical of new housewives… boring, try-hard, fake. But these women are obviously trying to make themselves memorable in some of way to keep the “fame” coming. This is where I get my pleasure… from the truly delusional… Ramona, Mary M. Cosby, Phaedra, etc. And now I am DYING to see Erika put under the microscope! Who thought she was the one hiding the most massive skeletons in her closet?
Brookes makes this show. He is hillarious. Love love love him! Daddy Andy needs to give us more Brookesie!!
I only like Heather & Whitney so far. Most of these ladies are so conceited and self-centered they just don’t interest me. And Brooks…Wow! He is a lot, and not in a good way. Mary gets worse every episode. I truly hope her congregation wakes up to the fact that she is just a grifter.
The two brunette women have serious vocal fry. I catch myself paying attention to their nasal tone rather than the words they say. I can’t not hear it, they’re ruined for me.
