It is very surprising to me that the ratings for RHOSLC are not as high as I expected. Porsha’s Family matters got 777,000 viewers last week. RHOSLC that airs right behind it got 722,000. I just try to get through the Porsha recap so I can get to my RHOSLC recap that I am way more interested in! Tonight, we get the return of Jen. So that should be interesting. Jen will cling to Heather because she is the only one naïve enough to ignore all the evidence against her. Jen recently tried to get her charges dropped because of the Hulu documentary. ROFLMAO. You can see how well that worked for her here. Spoiler alert, the judge threw the whole thing out. Also, this week yet another coconspirator rolled over on her. She’s fucked.
Every time I heard Mary’s stupid tagline it irritates the fuck out of me. I was raised in the church, The Bible is one of my strongest categories in Trivia games. I consider myself agnostic at this point in my life but I do attend church from time to time, and ALL THE TIME in foreign countries. There are days in my travels that I just sit in various churches. On a good day the organist is practicing and I am an audience of one. I also love being outside any mosque during time for prayer. I think most religions only differ in their beliefs about God and call him by different names. But, Mary is clearly not a religious woman. No pastor would say, “If you come after me, I will send Jesus after you.” That’s absurd if you know anything about Jesus. It just irritates me.

While I am on the hate train, Lisa is talking to her poor husband about the Vail trip and is still coming for Whitney. Why? Because Whitney is the only person on this show with a functioning brain! Everyone is whining to their family. Mary’s grandpahusband says that Mary is being discriminated against because she is black. NOPE! It’s because y’all are sham cult leaders stealing from your congregation. Allegedly. I hope the members of the church are watching this nonsense. Then Jen contacts everyone and asks if they will meet her for lunch. Only Heather agrees to go. Oh Heather! This is a mistake.
Jen Has Lunch With Heather
So Heather is the lamb being led to slaughter by Jen. They meet for lunch at a restaurant in their Project Runway fake fur coats. Jen says that she asked God to show her who her real friends are and Heather was the only one to show up for her. Oh Jen, here in the south, we have a saying, “God doesn’t like ugly,” and you are ugly through and through. And by ugly we mean ugly BEHAVIOR not looks. Heather tries to equate being charged with multiple felonies with going through a divorce. Jen Shah is without a doubt going to prison. And Heather will Do-Dee-Do her way over there and probably put money on her books. DOES! SHE!NOT!REMEMBER!HOW! JEN! TREATS! HER!

Jen Shah continues to lie to Heather’s face. She is sticking to the lie on Sharrieff! That’s a cold blooded liar right there. She says she got back into the truck. No she did not, her aunt came to pick her up. Then, she launches further into her poorly thought out story. She says a black minivan and a white SUV pulled her over. Um, I imagine there were blue lights involved. She says she thought she was being kidnapped. Why would anyone kidnap this bitch? Jen plays the pity card because her sons were held a gunpoint. She claims they were handcuffed. There is no evidence of that on the video. They were traumatized. But, THAT IS JEN SHAH’S FAULT. She is a terrible actress. But Heather is buying it.
Jen says she saw Stuart in the interrogation room. She is also trying to distance herself from Stuart. Ha! Even as I typed that, Heather seems to understand that much. Heather tells Jen about Lisa trying to distance herself from Jen right away. Lisa is a snake. But so are Jen and Mary. Jen pretends to cry about Lisa or Meredith. She claims she will be proven innocent. I promise you she is doing SERIOUS TIME.
Whitney is rebranding her business. And she hasn’t told her husband about how much money that is going to cost.
Mary Flashes Her Misappropriated Funds Again
Mary denies on camera that she has all the crap she has because she is taken people’s money. LOLOLOL. The closet organizer has her work cut out for her. Nobody needs that many clothes. Mary is a hoarder. Meredith stupidly agrees to go on a horseback riding “date” with Lisa. Stay away from the succubus, Meredith! Meredith understands what she is dealing with when it comes to Lisa. Lisa makes everything about Lisa. Lisa is also over Whitney and Heather. Because, truthtellers. Also, she wants to blame Whitney and lies about brining Cameron on the show for storyline. Meredith is not buying it either. Lisa blows her top. She says no one has her back! Lisa loves to rewrite history.

Meanwhile, newbie Jennie just wants to introduce the other ladies to Vietnamese culture. She wants to have a meal with all the ladies to talk. I love Jeannie’s little daughter. And she’s a food critic! LOL. I need to go get Thai food from the hole in the wall need my house with extremely high ratings that is often SRO. I just never know what to order. And yes, I know Thai and Vietnamese food is different. But the “Thai Restaurant” has like a ten page menu with literally all the Asian countries. And it is SO MUCH FOOD. There are a lot of greens and I could really use something more healthy than well, mostly beer and Christmas candy.
Sharrieff Is Still Filming? I AM SHOOKETH
It seems all Jen needs to do to makeup for their house being raided is to buy him some Popeye’s Chicken. How is this sweet, easy going Muslim man stuck with this shrew? She fake cries on camera while telling her husband she is innocent. Such a dramatic fake scene. Wasn’t he trying to divorce her before this. Jen says his family has abandoned her. BECAUSE SHE IS GUILTY AS SIN. This is Jen’s second pity party of the episode. Sharrieff swears that his family loves her. He promises his faith will not falter and he will not leave her. You know, until after she goes to Camp Cupcake.

Whitney goes forward with rebranding her company. Jennie points out that there is no product for her rebranding event yet. Jennie asks Heather about her lunch with Jen. Specifically she wants to know if Heather still believes she is innocent. She says she hopes and prays she is innocent. So that is a no. Whitney is sick of Lisa Barlow. Me too, girl. Whitney announces that she has called Cameron and they talked for about three hours. She says is Lisa knew that even one tenth of what they talked about was true, then Lisa Barlow knows that Mary is worse than they ever realized. Poor Jennie still trusts Lisa Barlow. But, our girl Whitney is going to go straight to Lisa about what she knows. Then, she wants everyone to confront Mary.
Next time: Jenn confronts Lisa. Heather’s Mormon story continues. Whitney continues to expose Mary. Mary tries to deflect on to Lisa. Lisa and Meredith fight.
I’ll watch WWHL next with Lisa Barlow and Jeff Lewis (who I love!) and will comment below if anything good happens.
As always, I’d appreciate it if you could follow me on Twitter. And special shout out to HihoKermit for all of the retweets of my posts on Twitter. It’s very helpful.
Ugh. Already Jeff is annoying me. He always likes the worst people, like Lisa Barlow. Jeff also seemed to be enamored with Jen Shah. COME ON JEFF. Who is the Jeff Lewis??? I do not like him. He seems to think Jen is innocent. Is he just being a dick for fun? He keeps throwing Stu Chainz under the bus. I do agree with him about Heather Dubrow being the Cruella De Ville of Orange County. But, that is only because he is very close with Shannon.
Let’s just say that Lisa Barlow is a cunt. She is not looking like a good person on this show, even thought Andy is giving her plenty of chances to look better, and she is blaming Heather a lot. She calls her “Bad Weather.”
I am craving food from that Thai (and other Asian foods) place. The menu is seriously like 20 pages long and I don’t know what most of it is. I do know that I can order Pho (but not what kind) and whatever else I’ve ever order has lots of like bean spouts and other unusual greens and stuff involved. I need to start looking at the menu but I can’t think of the name of it. Maybe Pho is in the title and not Thai. Because it’s literally every Asian thing (authentic, not what we think is Chinese food). Maybe I will just order Pho (but not sure what kind) and a few different appetizers. I probably won’t be able to eat any of it and tomorrow I probably won’t even want to order.
Lisa Barlow is trying to be a bullshit artist. She is not very good at that.
Jeff is asked if he could every make up with Vicki Gunvalson or Heather Dubrow. He says he and Vicki have been in contact recently and will got to dinner soon. But, Heather Dubrow is a horrible person. He has witnessed how she treats people and she is just a horrible human. He can never forget or forgive that.
Andy’s top five was a dig at Jeff Lewis’ lips. Tacky.
Yes – so frustrating listening to Jeff and his support of the crazy. I too was wondering if he was being an ass for fun or if he seriously blames Stu while saying Jen is innocent until proven guilty.
I always order spicy beef pho, beef larb Thai spicy and vegetable chow fun with extra gravy. I like everything spicy, however, my girls eat the more mellow versions and like them. I have to drive all the way to Dawson I’ll for good thai, Lao and Vietnamese
Dawsonville
Your recap hit all of the highlights. I don’t know why this show isn’t getting better ratings. The look on the closet organizers face was priceless.
Thanks. I once again missed that part because slow typist. lol. I can only imagine. I don’t believe for a minute that Mary is going to purge. If she does it should be free clothes for the cult members she keeps robbing. ALLEGEDLY.
I agree with Jeff, Mary is a hoarder and what’s even worse she has bad taste.
Happy Holidays TT, I love Pho and my daughter buys me a box of it every week, it comes in a bowl with all the ingredients, you just put noodles and seasoning in bowl add hot water and cover for 5 minutes and instant Pho like I order from restaurant 😋❣️
Now I watched Jen sit there and lie about the boys being in handcuffs, doesn’t she know the raid was shown on the show? Lisa was pulling her hair trying to get Meredith to believe her lies😂and Sharif just looks broken 😞.
Whitney has no business sense and will be bankrupt by end of season Mary and grandpa going to jail, and heather will be left with Judgie Jennie and Meredith to hang out with.
Can’t wait for next week .
And I wish Jen and Mary stop using the race card!
Thanks MK. This hole in the wall is literally walking distance and considered one of the best places in the metro area. I just need to remember what it is called. They will cook all of it for me. It’s a tiny little place that is often full. I never know what to order. The menu is the longest menu I’ve ever seen. LOL.
I suggest you start with the first item and work your way down item by item. Each time you try a new dish you can blog if you like it or not.
Lisa’s spray tans are gross. Her hands look disgusting. Plus, she lied about her own husband. He suggested she meet with Jen, then she said he told her not to meet with Jen. Lisa doesn’t listen to others. She is a narcissists and thinks way too high of herself. Even her tag line shows this to be true.
I am loving this show. It is so much better than the other housewives shows. I can’t believe more people aren’t watching it. Each week the next weeks previews look amazing.
Is it either of these? Both have Take-out and Delivery
Siam Square Thai Cuisine
In Windy Hill West Shopping Center
L’Thai Organic Cuisine & Wine Bar
In the Highlands of West Village
I love RHOSLC! Lisa is trying to do the housewives thing of stirring the pot then hiding her hands but she is doing a horrible job. I guess she is trying to make the best out of the predicament she is in.
I feel like Mary maybe doing some bad things but at the same time if you decide to give everything to the church thats your fault. You gifted it to them. You need to gain better judgement.
I found it odd that Jen & Sharrieff had separate finances. Married over 20 years and you still keep things separate. That should have been warning sign #1. Very Phaedra & Apollo -esque. I feel like I read they keep their finances separate. Did anyone else see that or am I crazy?
Since Jennie mentioned it, I wonder if Whitney is actually rebranding or if she just needed to come up with a storyline and bad business decisions was what she decided to do.
Hi! First time posting here…
I totally understand keeping finances separate. Been with my hubby for 27 years. He makes his money and has his own account, as do I. We obviously share in the bills.
Backstory so it might make more sense: i was raised by a single mom who left an abusive husband. She had no education and worked minimum wage jobs to keep food on the table and a roof over our heads. She struggled and i hated to see that. She never got child support and never went after it cuz he said he wld kill us all if she tried. She made do with what she had.
Bottom line is i swore i wld never end up like my mom. I put myself thru school, worked and got an education and make more than my husband. I trust my hubby, but it goes deeper than that…i need my own bank acct for my own security and for my children.
Mike, ” but at the same time if you decide to give everything to the church thats your fault. You gifted it to them. You need to gain better judgement.” This is an education system problem. This is why we have morons sending Trump money. Uneducated people fail to learn basic reasoning skills. The poor and uneducated send money to someone who claims to be rich and owns multiple golf courses. Why is he asking for their grocery money? You actually can fix stupid. But you have to stay in school.
Ultimately, the blame lies with Mary, and Joel Olsten and his ilk and Trump for preying on the uneducated. And the saddest part is our education system is failing us. I was not really for Biden free community college plan but, honestly, if it gets more of us to have critical thinking skills, it’s worth a shot.
Jennie’s kid is so damn cute. Probably the cutest housewife kid ever. If Jennie gets another season I hope they handle all the attention well.
Jen is so fucked, and actively fucks herself more and more on the show. Production is clearly also not on her side. They made a big effort to show her close professional and personal relationship with Stu knowing full well that later on in the season her main defense will be blaming him for everything. The delusion and denial will not work in her favor. She’s exactly the kind of criminal that prison is for.
Next week’s episode looks really good. Add the implosion of Meredith and Lisa’s friendship to the list of things I can’t wait to see. The ratings should come eventually; there is no other way this show is just too good. It’s also a great show to get new (younger) viewers hooked on the satire that is housewives.
Jeff went for drinks with Lisa after the show and was talking about how she is a b*tch but he loves hearing the gossip. Bravo has taken him off the black list finally so I think that he’s trying to get her for his radio show.
Worse yet, he shared that Lisa body shamed Heather. She said “Heather is like Amy Shumer in I feel pretty.” She told Jeff she thought she was really funny with that weak comment. She is suffering the second year curse of over the top narcissism. She is vile.
Jeff Lewis is awful—he needs to not be seen on Bravo or anywhere else on TV. He is not a good guy. He is in the ADMIN EDIT!!! HE WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED! category of insipidness.
Also my TV guide said that Sherri Sheperd was hosting Wendy Williams today. And when I turned it on it was HE WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED hosting. NOPE! turned it right off.
Sherri had emergency surgery, appendicitis. He was a last minute replacement
Oooppppsss!! Forgot that rule😉
LOL! I’ll never forgive him for how he treated Kenya.
Perhaps Jen’s family abandoned her because she stole all their money? Just a Thought.
Happy to Tweet TT. I’m no longer watching the housewives because I can easily stay current by reading your posts and I love your recaps and commenters. Have a great week all!
I do the same thing. Save me lots of (mostly) wasted time! If a recap makes an episode sound good, I may watch it. Like the Sharrest! THAT one was worth it.
Happy holidays.
I’m recording them for the same reason Nanette but there never seems to be enough time!
Crap. I suck. Happy holidays to YOU too ☺️
You’re the best HiHoKermit!
I have to rewatch it but I think Jen told Heather that Stu said “I’m sorry” when they brought her to that building after they arrested her? She is horrible . Her husband is so bailing on her. I love Lisa’s fashion but she is so wishy washy. What happened to Jeff Lewis? Back in the day he did live seminars and he was amazing in person. I was so excited to ask him questions. Gage was great too. I miss the old bravo days
My heart goes out to Jen’s children for having to experience the terror of that fateful day. But when Jen is sentenced to prison, maybe she will be able to reflect on the fact that she brought this on her children. Maybe don’t commit fraud as a parent.
Innocent until proven guilty is fine – or innocent until the case is made against her in a courtroom. Several arms of law enforcement had been investigating Jen for years. These are not bogus charges being made against her.
If you don’t want your kids held at gunpoint by law enforcement, don’t build an empire based on defrauding innocent people. Parenting 101.
I totally agree – but it’s worth considering whether, say, if it had been Whitney accused of the same crime, her kids would have been treated the same way.
Valid question – don’t know the answer. I do feel confident saying that Whitney would have been treated the same as Jen was personally if the same charges were made against her.
I doubt Jen will do anything to accept accountability. She will continue to blame everyone else and cry victim.
I have to believe she is rational-minded enough to know the extent of trouble she is in. If she is not, then she is even more delusional than it appears. She is ‘going away’ for years if even a portion of the charges against her are proven true. Sucks for her kids big time.
Jen per usual spending every waking moment pointing her finger at everyone BUT herself. Anyone who doesn’t support her she’ll perceive as an enemy to take down. It’s quite amazing to watch a chronic criminal do her thing. Character disorders show up as exactly that. They have no character including: honesty, nobility, or morals. She’s likely been what she is from birth. I don’t believe it’s any mistreatment that caused this little psycho to be what she is. And it’s definitely not racism. Sorry Jen, you’re going to prison. (God help anyone who gets in her way between now and then.)
Holy crap! I’d had the same epiphany moment regarding Mary’s tagline and was going to question it but you beat me to it. Yeah, i never really have gotten the vibe that Jesus is going “get you”. Should we think that she’s got Jesus as a wiseguy ready to bust some skulls?
How do we get Andy to ask about her tagline?
As for Jennie’s daughter, of course she is cute. But, I wonder is the producers are just rolling their eyes when Jennie mentions that she wants her to be included in her scenes. Or maybe the producers know that Jennie doesn’t have much story-wise going on and they’re like, “okay, get your kid in there” I’m sure at the reunion there will be a video package of her daughter, and everyone will gush. Again, that’s what they’ll have to do because Jennie doesn’t have much going on.
1) Go to the Thai restaurant and grab a take-out menu. Start trying things on the menu and rate them as you try them–mark the ratings on the take-out menu. After a few trips, you will have a few go to items.
2) Jennie was right about Whitney’s lack of focus on the rebrand. She had a chance to get her business in front of 700,000 set of eyeballs. What do I know about her business? I know that the ink on her back tattoo looks good in promotional photos of whatever the hell it is she sells. I wonder if she had the tattoos painted to make them POP… Does her product have something to do with tattoos in Park City?
3) Jen is awful. Thing is, her family seems to not be awful. They will be collateral damage from her crimes. Sad.Grim.Pathetic.
4) Lisa is a narcissistic shit-show. Meredith calls her on her bullshit.
5) Mary…ugh.
~APG~
…and what about Jen’s makeup in that one shot. It looked like a sunset exploded on her face and outfit.
Madness.
~APG~
“Sharrieff Is Still Filming? I AM SHOOKETH” i love that. When Lisa was on the phone with one of her 6 lawyers and said that i was like “who the F says that? Lisa & Meredith are annoying middle aged white women (i am too) who think they are hotter, cooler, smarter and more important than they are. They might be the most annoying ppl on TV.
New drinking game alert….Every time Lisa “snaps her hands” (I can’t think of any better way to put it, drives me to distraction) take a drink. We will all be loaded after a few sentences. It’s that two-hands-up-palms-forward-move-then-snap-your-fingers-down-flat-against-your-palms-because-your-damn-nails-are-so-long move. I am sorry but that is a bell that can’t be unrung for me….it is all I see when she talks.
Or it could be take a drink when Lisa strokes her hair. She takes her hand and runs down whatever part of her hair is laying in front. I think either version will get you drunky-drunk pretty darn quick.
Did Whitney bet the farm on a clothing collection? I don’t even understand what that gold thing was that she was modeling. Do you?
Her rebranding event with no product reminded me of Sheree’s fashion show with no fashion on RHOA.
Not every housewife is meant to have a fashion or product line, especially when they can’t afford it. 🤨
You should see if they have Tom Kha soup. It is my absolute favorite thing to order at Thai restaurants. Perfect for this crappy winter weather.
I’ll probably order A1 3 egg rolls with salad, P2 Rare steak Pho, and MAYBE A10 Shrimp rolls. I think I was underwhelmed by the shrimp rolls back when I used to go out to eat. The place is close enough to walk too, but there is a five lane to cross and so I’ll order and go pick it up. One day. Maybe tomorrow.
Did anyone else notice how Sharrief looked like he had aged almost a decade in that scene with Jen? That poor man cannot take a minute more.
Yep, he has aged but no mention of his internal bleeding since the day of the Shah-rest. Jen is doubling down on that lie still but not sure why. Lying about that should be the least of her worries.
I am willing to bet he has the divorce papers ready and will fill as soon as she gets convicted. Dude has checked out
