That’s it. That is the post. Thank you for letting me into your lives. Thank you for putting up with the crazy. Thanks for always showing up. Thank you for being my friends in a time when I really needed friends. Forgive me for not always doing my best for reciprocating the love. And Bobbi your hat is on the way! I still have a handful of hats left if anyone wants one. Maybe Bobbi can take a photo and you can see what they look like. This was my failed attempt to see if you guys were interested in buying merch. LOL. All the SASE are in shockingly odd different amounts. I just don’t know why postage would be so high. Anyway, I will be sure that the last two go to Cindy and Marc, my fiancéy and my twin.
You guys are the best. Some of you endure drunken calls and strange emails. You have given me the family of weirdos I always wanted. I love my real family too. But we don’t speak every day. But we do. And I want you all to know that I love and care about you all. You are my online family and frankly, I would have never made it through all the crap that has happened in the pandemic without you. Someone who rarely even comments here sent me all the survival things. And. I don’t mean to brag but I got Chanel No. 5 for my birthday and it continues to sustain me in a way I cannot explain
I am a crabby mess most days. And you still come. I am nobody special. I have a few good sources (also out of luck). And I really feel the need to thank you all for the community that YOU have built and I get to be a part of. I love you all even when I am being an asshole in comments. 🙂 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANKYOU.
Thank you Tamara for providing this space for your recaps and our comments. I thoroughly enjoy reading your blog every day. I will try to comment more going forward. I am just content with reading the comments from “the regulars”, Nanette, Marc, MelG, etc.
You don’t need to feel compelled to comment. I just like knowing who is out there reading. Comments don’t really matter in a financial sense, but sometimes I just like knowing who is out there. xoxooxox ~ttt
Thank You Tamara for being a ‘Lifeline’ to us! Speaking for myself, I come here to read your posts and to read the commenters, especially when I am having a bad day. You (you and the commenters) help me muddle thru those days…providing pick me ups, laughs, some tears but most of all, a sense of community….
THANK YOU Sweet Soul!
Thanks so much. You guys are my community too and I get back way more than I give.
You should be proud of what you built here. Its hard to explain to someone who has never been on this site how special it is. It has evolved into something really special and we all love you for it.
You guys are the best. I am so lucky to have you
No, hon. We are lucky to have you. THANK YOU
You’re welcome & thank you, too, Tamara. When my own family is driving me crazy I can count on you and this group to make me laugh (or cry). Looking forward to many more years of reading your posts.
We thank you! There are days your site has been the only thing that made me smile.
Ditto, it’s fun here. Thank you.
A few months ago, I found your blog on a whim and fell in love with it. I live in Australia – we don’t have access to Peacock and limited to the Bravo shows, so I come on here to get insight. I love how you have organised your posts so it’s easy to access.
Thank you for your dedication to this site and keeping us updated xx
Thanks so much Randy.
Y’all have me crying now. I’m just an old fat lady (WITH GREAT SOURCES) sitting on a couch wanting to be loved. And you guys all do that unconditionally and in spades.
Yes, we do love you – unconditionally and in spades. I still remember when/how I ‘met’ you but I can’t remember where it was (Twitter, Instagram, FB, maybe even this site when I first found it – I’m just not sure). Anyway, you kinda gave me a hard time about something (I don’t even remember what it was) but you caught my attention. You were like ‘who are you?’ and I was like ‘who is this woman questioning me?’ LOL. Instead of getting annoyed though, I became an avid friend and fan. Even though I don’t comment a lot, I’m here several times a day – checking for updates, looking for new stuff, looking specifically for ‘Tamara’s take’ on the world. I can completely relate to your hermit tendencies and your ‘hate the world’ tendencies but I also know that deep down you’re a wonderful person who cares. Thanks for being you and creating this place for all of us – even when you’re cranky 🙂 You’ve inspired me to comment on occasion and to look at the world in different ways.
Thank You TT – we are all part of ea other’s tribe lol It’s the only way I can describe it. I love reading comments as well as the recaps
You just continue to be you 🙂 no one expects more than that. Love to you & Banjo from the ‘ol canuck hahaha
Thank you for showing up, even when you don’t feel like it. You are appreciated.
Thank you Tamara, and thank you group for being here all hours of the day and night. Thank you for being the outlet I need. Thank you Tamara for being an honest straight shooter. I know when I come here, regardless if you are a “crabby mess” or if you are having a good day that you will be 100% authentic and that you have a heart of gold always ready to help someone else regardless what’s going on with you and Banjo. Love you dearly! ((HUGS!))
❤️
Thank you!! I will take a photo and try to figure out how to post it. I didn’t know how much postage it should be so I went higher to be on the safe side. I’m sure it’s half if not more than half of what I did. I will wear your cap with pride.
And thank you for the hours you dedicate to this site. You are the first email I look for the next morning after a show and can not wait to read the recaps and all the comments.
Thank you Tamara for all that you do for us! Your words melted my heart. You are a wealth of information, wicked smart, funny, cranky, generous, kind and lovable all mixed into one and we love you for being here for us!
I came to your site because I watch a lot of shows on Bravo but you have turned me on to so many other shows that I didn’t know were out there. All the 90 Days shows or 60 Days in, (which I really wish could return but not sure how they could.)
Beyond the shows, you’ve given us a sense of community and a place to share our personal thoughts and stories. We appreciate you for your dedication to us! ❤️
You are most welcome TT…I love being a part of your crazy online reality and real world familia…we always got your back and each others in this space and I love that 👍🏽💖🤩
😘
I’m fairly new to this site and have become so addicted with TT’s posts and reader comments. It’s 6am and I can’t get my day going without coffee and TT.
It feels like family and I’ve grown to think of all of you as friends.
Thank you TT and commenting family for being good people and entertaining me every single day! Oh yes and thank all of you for your fierce love of animals! Love you all the more for that!
Ever since I discovered you and this site, I can’t stop coming back. xoxox
Wow. I don’t really know what to say. I have been reading your posts and everyone’s comments for years and I mean YEARS. This site got me through me some really dark times and it often gave me something to look forward to. I may not interact due to extreme shyness. But I just felt compelled to say thank you for all that you do and for sharing yourself!
Going back into hiding now.
❤️
Thank you for being here/there. This is my morning coffee clatch with my friends and the first site I go to after the local news. I don’t always watch all the shows you post about but I read about them and have found a lot of programs to investigate and watch. Hope all is well with you and Banjo!
I totally get the Chanel No 5 comment as I am the same. Been using it since I was in my early twenties (now approaching 60). I even spray myself on the days when I am gardening or cleaning the house. I don’t feel myself when I run out.
Love you, TT. Your site feels like a family and that’s because of you. Come for the tea and stay because of Tamara ♥️
Awe…….I save your site for last…..you’re my fav……..I don’t comment often. Like your attitude, (most of the time)……enjoy your personalization……….. We’re don’t know each other……but you’re my friend
❣♥️❣
I enjoy your site and the “crazy” too!
I’ve been on the receiving end (and probably deservingly so) of one, maybe two of your smack-downs in the comment section but know that I consider it a badge of honour 😉
ME!!!
I want a hat. Mercy? Have I been under a rock?
Sent you video from Sunday brunch!
Love you girlie!
Thanks for this site all your recaps,thanks for opening a can of whoop ass when needed ( the funniest😂)The site had seen me through deaths family and workplace,its made me laugh when I don’t have anything to laugh at as life has been so hard lately. Thanks for giving me something to look forward to in my email.Thanks for the Tea T keep brewing I like mine hot.
Thanks to all those who comment I am usually not able to due to time delay etc.Love you all🥰
We love you Tamara!
I log on every morning, and couldnt imagine a world without your funny posts and great tea.
Hello Tamara, you are welcome and thank you for caring for us and giving us trustworthy gossip. I always come to your site to check facts, if you say it, its going to happen. Thank you for keeping us in the loop. I love you.
Long time reader, first time commenting. Love this site and all the people on it. We r 1 Big happy family here. I think we do put the “fun” in dysfunctional. 🙂
Thank YOU Tamara.
I’ve been following you for years.
When I open my browser, you pop up first.
You are relatable and hilarious.
I’ve had to jettison my cable, but keep up on the Housewives due to you.
I would be lost without you!
I pray for dear Banjo often.
I have a picture of him in my minds’ eye but would love to see an actual pic!
Keep doing what you’re doing.
PLEASE!
Love from Elizabeth Rose Houston, TX ❤
She’s posted a few photos of banjo on here before and he’s different than what I thought he would look like. He looks like a beautiful tan lovable hound dog. I pictured him a small but he’s a little bit bigger than a medium sized dog
You are someone special…..to us.
Thank you for all you do.
This is my first ever comment, though I’ve read your blog for YEARS; it’s its own funny little world and it not only brings great info, insights and tea, but also a sense of community and oneness that I love. Thank you, because no one else “gets it” like y’all do.
Yup.
I love that I can disagree with you and we can argue and yet you still want to be my friend. This site isn’t about blogs, it’s about being there for each other. Loving, laughing and listening to each other.
Thank YOU!
It is a special site for sure!!
💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜
Love you. Love you. Love you.
Thank you! I’m a Southern Girl living in the PNW. Your wit, perspective, ,and insight make my day. Enjoy your day TT.
I dont comment often but i check in several times a day. Your site has gotten me through many lonley holidays, being snowed in for weeks, heatwaves, the Rona and countless other unpleasant situations. I know I can always come here and for a laugh and feel like I’m not alone. Thank you Tamara for making this possible and to all the readers who contribute..
And a special virtual hug to Banjo❤
Thank you! You are witty and clever, I read your site every day. It has helped me in many ways . Thank you for the community!
I have lost count of all the years I have been coming here. But it was long before your court trip with Sheree and your co- bloggers. I am in the UK and I am on this page at least once or twice a day. Thank you for this space and all your guest bloggers. I enjoy your candor.
What would we all do without you? THANK YOU!!
We all come here for more than just recaps <3
Thank you so much for being here and doing what you do!! I’ve followed you from the very beginning (from that other site eons ago,lol ) and plan to follow you till the wheels fall off…
I enjoy your views and recaps as well as everyone who posts here. I love our family vibe we have here!
AHA, Chris said he will take a picture wearing my hat. LOL
Umm let me think about that.
SHANNON is way cuter, LOL.😊
He finally gets it after i read your post. Finally!!💛
Hey TT thanks to you I have been around since the beginning I think. I don’t say much but I’m lurking getting different perspectives on this crazy world and our fellow inhabitants. Don’t go changing 😊❤️
Well you’ve all got me crying over here. Sheesh. Can we go back to being assholes now? 🙂
Thank you for doing what you do, I’m always checking out your latest recaps and enjoy reading every one comments.
Did someone call?
Meh, you’re ok-ish.
I looked up how long food can be kept in a fridge during a power outage. I’m pretty much fucked out of all of the food.
I’ve been with you since the beginning. Very rarely comment but I read all your posts. You’ve got me to watch several different shows. Off Bravo’s teat! Work in Progress, L Word, MAFS. 90 day fiancé etc! So thank you TT!! ♥️
I don’t comment often, but you’re my favorite site to visit each day. I always look forward to you take on bravo shows, what’s going on in and around the shack, how bango is, your tipsy posts, and anything and everything in between. You are my guilty pleasure without the guilt. Thank you for giving me something to look forward to during my down days, which are more frequent than I care to admit.
I’ve been absent from commenting (I rarely ever have to be honest), but I always read and so appreciate you Tamara. Thank you for giving this outlet of escape and kinship. You are one of the great ones. Sorry I haven’t said that lately.
I’ve been here for awhile now and I appreciate your site so much! I am a nurse (school) and it’s been pretty stressful. I did 20 years in a children’s hospital and made an abrupt change to school nursing in 2017. Your appreciation for reality tv was the first layer and writing about your life is so interesting and tumultuous as life is for us all.
Best, Clare
Wow! School Nurse is a tough job! Thanks for taking that leap. They are so needed especially right now.
Thank you for the fun
Longtime reader, infrequent commenter but NO Thank You! I usually save your site for the end of my day to read, laugh, (sometimes cry) and enjoy the gossip. It’s one of my favorite escapes of the day and I’m so glad its here.
Wanted to join in with those saying I’m not one who comments often, but I check in a few times a day and hope that helps you (and site) in some way?
I love the insight and the enthusiasm and the crabbiness (most of the time).
Thanks for it all.
Thank you for taking me out the sin bin 🤣🤣 I promise to behave, heads all over at the minute, we are finally getting a holiday /.vacation to Spain flying Thursday xxx lots of live your England pal Nicola xxx
Ha! At least you were not in the WLS. The sin bin is a good name for getting accidently locked out. Go forth and sin no more! xo
Thanks Tamara, can’t wait to get to Spain and relax, UK are slowly getting back to normal. Email me If there’s anything you’d like from either England or Spain and I’ll send you a little treat xx
Well the postage on a hot Spaniard in his 50s would probably be OUTRAGEOUS! But if you could shove one in box and poke some holes in it I’d be eternally grateful. 🙂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 sorry no can do xx
That street goes both ways my dear! We get all of that and more from you!
Love this site. I check in at least twice a day.
🤗🤗.
TT, you are the one who should be thanked. You are awesome and spirited and cranky and cute! Plus a very talented writer. I don’t comment a real lot but I read often. so many people already say what I was going to say, or you have said it and I think…ok..that’s the ticket! But I think you are awesome. End of story.
Like everyone else has already posted, I appreciate you and this site so much! I particularly appreciate how many posts and comments happen at all hours of the day so that I can wake up in the middle of the night and read something new. It has really helped keep the anxiety at bay during the pandemic.
I wanted to comment on the merchandise idea. I would definitely be interested in t-shirts, maybe other things. I thought I would leave the hats for others because I look terrible in hats, but then when you still had some, I thought, oh, maybe I will. But I can never remember the steps long enough to act on them. So my thought on merchandise is that if we can click a link right on here and pay by credit card or PayPal, I can see it happening. But if there are too many steps, I would be too distracted. Ooo – you could sell TT socks and only those of us in the the know would wear them. You could see someone in a crowd wearing them and give them a nod for having such good taste in websites!
We THANK YOU for creating & maintaining this site despite all of lifes many obstacles.
xo Marc
Tamara, you softy! I visit for the tea, tomatoes, and shade. Thank you for providing this place. You are appreciated!
Hi Miz T! I read your posts everyday during my lunch or when I get home. I feel like I’m catching up with my favorite sassy aunts (even though we are probably the same era of auntie-ism😆) I always read the WLS rules to see if I’m one of these few, these band of WLS 😂🤸🏻♀️
I love when you tell it like it is. TELL 👏🏼US 👏🏼WHERE 👏🏼TO GO 👏🏼TT
However, lately I have always worried about you and specially when I *think* you’re stretching yourself thin and trying to please your audience. Thank you for giving us so much of your precious energy and time. I hope you’re being as entertained as we are. I want you to take care of yourself first. 💕❤️🥂💕
God I love you guys so much! I am so very lucky to have all of you as my friends. I don’t do 3D friends because I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to hang with you guys. So thank you.
TT you gave me your phone number, and actually picked up the phone when I called! I was in a bad place during a really bad time and you made me feel like I could get through it. You made me feel strong when I felt like a shitty weak woman. And you made me laugh and smile! And your recaps still make me laugh and smile! So THANK YOU. Hopefully, I can be kinda slutty again at 39.
Gurl, I highly recommend being as slutty as you can. The time will come when you can’t be. But dammit, I am pretty good at being slutty overseas. LOL. My memory is faulty but I think the last time I was slutty was on an overseas trip. Which is sad. I probably have cobwebs down there. lol.
Oh and I will always pick up the phone for you. What I don’t understand is why people always pick up the phone for me and my drunk dialing.
Well, Thank You for answering so quick! I just don’t how to interact with anyone. My first step is to get my hair cut and highlighted tomorrow. I have my little boys all the time so what do I do? But I don’t have them for the next two days. Back in the day, I would go out with friends but I don’t have friends.
I AM YOUR FRIEND. CALL ME.
Is it slutty? Or are you just sampling the buffet, ok?😂 Go forth, wear your protective gear, and sample the buffet in peace.
EXACTLY.
I’ve been in a relationship for 15 years so I don’t know where the buffet is. I know I still have game (does that make me sound old). Just, where do you find people? Specifically, men?
I come to this site everyday, but have never commented…until today. I need to disagree with one sentence in your posting – You are special! Please always remember that. You bring a lot to those of us who remain quiet, you are such a comfort, funny and endearing. So Thank You!
Thank you so much for commenting, Quinn. I know it can be intimidating when it looks like everyone knows everyone. But we only know each other because you comment! Most of us are sometimes assholes. ESPECIALLY ME! lol. But we are one big happy family for the most part. I hope you will comment more. I’m just an old lady who needs to bathe more and drink less. You guys are all my lifeline to the world.
I read your site daily and don’t usually comment on the Open Forum topics but felt compelled to today. None of my friends watch reality tv so your site gives me a chance to read the comments and I enjoy your recaps. The site has given me some needed entertainment especially during the pandemic and being home alone a lot. I had built a comfortable social network even though I found myself single in midlife, but the pandemic caused me to feel so isolated.
Like you TT I am also a retired teacher and can relate to your stories about working in the school
system.
I’ll keep reading the recaps and watching reality shows as my guilty little pleasure.
Thanks for the site.
Thanks for commenting Kadie… we have somehow made a community that anyone can join and be heard and that makes me really happy.
thank you for keeping this site alive! I cant count how many hours i spend a week reading your site escaping problems at home. i know I am one of many who feel the same. ❤️
Hi TT! Well, I comment a lot and probably drone on and on but I love this site so THANK YOU!! And you are special girl. You are funny and odd and quirky and brutally honest and you would make a hilarious neighbor!!
Thank you for all the funny recaps, all the snarky replies and just being a good, real person! I read this site for a couple of years before commenting- now I don’t know why I waited so long. Fabulous bunch of people and you connected all of us!
I found Tamara Tattles when my pain level made it impossible to concentrate on anything but reality TV. The idiocy of the RH made me realize that I was much more emotionally healthy than I had believed. The first time TT came up on a recap search, I felt I had discovered the internet mother lode. I loved the writing — just enough snark and REAL sentences, not a bunch of R2FLUT4 crap. And … when I saw “cuntsatchel,” I was hooked.
I started feeling less alone as I got to “know” the regulars.
What you don’t seem to believe is how YOU built this community, Tamara. You gave us a place to go for those times when we can’t sleep and the “third shift” checks in.
Then … with the pandemic and the election and that craziness … we had a place to vent and support each other. That is HUGE!
I haven’t even gotten around to Banjo, our mascot. I wish we all could meet him.
I hope that we can get through this upcoming holiday season intact. And that Lentil 2022 will be the best one ever. I love you Miss T!
Brava. This is how I’ve felt many times. I don’t always comment but this is a community where we can share.
No, thank YOU, for so many things:
— for your genuine, in-the-moment recaps,
— for your candor about things that affect you,
— and for creating a place (was going to say “space”, but finding it an annoyingly over-used word lately), anyway,
a place where we can share our thoughts, big and small, against the backdrop of a shared interest in watching “real” people comport themselves on TV in a way that often allows the feeling of being less screwed up than what we’re seeing. (have always felt that is a big part of the appeal for me)
To quote Nanette above: “The idiocy of the RH made me realize that I was much more emotionally healthy than I had believed.”
I have felt less alone in finding my way through the shattering (worst-possible) effects of this pandemic by being able to come here and escape a little. Have also been touched to read at times of the heavy things other readers have gone through and kept going.
As a believer in food-as-medicine for all things, esp. perhaps mental health, I’ve even been worried, from another country, to read that you sometimes lately aren’t eating, or aren’t able to. Please take care of yourself — as you can see from the comments here, we need you and value you, so much.
Thank you!!! I love coming here for your perspective. Keep it up!
Crazy bitch.
You carried me for a year in 2016 when I was dying and you didn’t even know it. I survived, all good now and I’m still here even though I technically don’t need you anymore. I still like the boost.
Crazy strong bitch.
Hey now. No one is allowed to die on my watch! I need the page views. SUCK IT UP. 🙂 There will be no dying. Should I add that to the commenting rules? xoxoxoxo
Whatever happened in 2016, I am happy for you that you are OK now! 👏
Well yeah. I should have probably said that. But still. I need you all to try not to fucking die on me.
Tamara, also unbenouced (sp.✅) by you and our family, you held me up by just one post. About 2 years ago, I was one day away from ending it all. I had my plan in place, I made sure I had a place for my cat, had written my goodbye letters and ordered some of my favorite Chinese food with the last bit of money in my account. Then for some reason, I came here, and you had posted about how you were doing and how you were feeling. And I so wanted to make sure you were ok, that I didn’t go through with MY plans. Saying “thank you” doesn’t cover how much you and these people who somehow became my family mean to me. I never told anyone until right now! I’m not seeking for condolences or sympathy. You mean that much to me that I cancelled my cancellation. We live so close to each other, but I don’t have a car and I know how you feel about leaving the house. I would love to meet you and give you a giant hug, just for being YOU. I sincerely appreciate you, this group, Banjo and everything people have shared. I’ve been up all night and my mind is a wreck. But I’m sane enough to say, I LOVE YOU TAMARA!!!
Hope you have a blessed day ❤️❤️❤️
OMG! Nadia! I’m so glad I made that post and that you are still here! You are an important part of this site! xoxoxo
Keep the faith, Tamara. Like so many have said before me and stated more eloquently… you are the old neighborhood bartender that draws us all in. Even if I don’t agree with 100% it’s nice you are not afraid to share and have beliefs that are not based on the latest polls.
Thank you TT for keeping it 💯 all the time! You are my people.
Thank you for being here. Even though I don’t comment very much, I look forward to reading your recaps every day. You’ve also helped me feel less alone during a crazy time. I love hearing about your life. And Banjo’s.
As I love someone to talk to. I would be so lonely without you guys. Thanks for commenting and I hope do it more.
