I am terribly sorry for the delay of tonight’s RHOC Recap. As most of you know I have been covering a court situation regarding a Nashville rapist living in my area. After I recapped TAR (great season BTW) I was briefly on Twitter publicizing the post. Then a local newsman was tweeting me about the rapist. So I had to handle some things there. I need that asshole behind bars. Sorry if my brain is scattered more than usual . Anyway, on to the show.

Why the fuck are we calling Ryan, RYNE these days? Sorry I am on edge and thinking of fun ways to kill someone if he was to show up here. I’d like for it to be as painful as possible. I totally understand Max struggling to parallel park. As you know going to the grocery story terrifies me so I don’t go often. But when I do I buy a ton of stuff so I sometimes need to back into the driveway. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO THAT. How am I such a bitch and a girly girl at the same time? LOL. Anyway, I meant to just ignore the Heather and her exploited children scenes so … moving on.
I’m bored so far and my mind is elsewhere. I generally like this show but not so far. I do love that Emily’s husband cracked a “stack of vaginas” joke. He’s the best. OH! It looks like we are moving on to a girls night and Jen is going to tell us about her bad day. LOL CLICK THE LINK! Jen wants to go to couples therapy. I do not care about this conversation. All Heather does this season is try to plug her couples therapy show. WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP GIVING HER SHOWS? SHE’S AWFUL! Noella and her blond friend, Keni? get together. I’m sorry. I have so much more on my mind than this show tonight. They talk about Noella’s husband James just wants out. So do I James. So do I. I don’t care about any of these people.

Why is Gina letting Heather clean out her closet and sucking up to her? I can’t with Heather. How the hell is Noella my favorite person this season? I’m sorry I am sort of failing you all on this recap. There is a lot happening in my head. And the Banjo situation. Shane is literally the best person on this show. We are at Emily and Shane’s daughter. I really hate this season. I really do not want to continue this recap. I have a million other things on my mind. I think it may be time for me to say goodbye to Banjo. Why is Terry so concerned about whether Ryne has ever had cocaine and marijuana or alcohol. It leads to the fact that he seems down with all of those things. IJS. Who asks someone who doesn’t drink about that?
I Hate EVERYTHING About Heather’s House
I hate modern homes in the first place. But this cold, sterile place suits these two. Sorry I accidentally published to early. I really don’t even care. There is too much going on here. The Dubrows have the worst dinner party in the world. I’m dying over here. Where was Shannon this episode? And more importantly Archie? Archie is the best cast member. Heather tries to disgrace Jen and Ryne. Does she know?
Heather is such a cunt. Jen is wasted. Ryne is pissed off by his drinking. “Ryne” (frankly I’d change my name too) is embarrassed. He’s also into her scamming situation, allegedly up to his ass.
The scenes with Heather telling Jen she’ll be her marriage mentor and then telling Gina she’ll be her fashion consultant—could she be more annoying?
Yes she can.
Complaining about the dinner party menu being out of order (didn’t Miss Perfect proofread?) and how “simple” the table was when it had flowers under glass, wrapped party favors, gold utensils, etc., etc.
The dinner party was pretty entertaining, however, because Jen was so drunk and her husband was so odd—rightfully mortified, but odd. I can’t imagine being on this show is any good, at all, for Jen’s business image
Noella was on WWHL in a positively wild outfit. Andy asked her that question I hate, “can you say 3 nice things about Heather”. She said, she couldn’t—didn’t have anything. Andy pressed her and she said no. A few minutes later, during a game, the exact, same question came up again and she was like completely annoyed saying, we already did this—NO. Andy had this kind of pissed off look. I thought it was great.
I can’t come up with anything nice to say about that Russian monster or his American, formerly-in-office, lapdog who praised the monster as a genius. I got nothing for either. It’s like, why do you have to be able to come up with something positive to say about a vile human? That’s why I hate that question and I loved Noella’s response.
Love your whole post, LakeCarly! Well said! Thanks.
Wish I could upvote this comment a gazillion times! Well put!
Heather was discussed as someone who self-produces and she denied it and was offended, allegedly. If this episode doesn’t scream self-produced nothing does.
I’m going to be honest, I got to the part where you said “how am I a bitch and a girly girl at the same time?” and I realized I was laughing at THAT but verrrry upset at the same time. Pardon me but the idea that while you are just trying live your life, you have to worry AT ALL about this sick fuck is infuriating! 😡☠⚔ I am sorry Tamara that you are having to go through this. Hopefully SOON he will be locked up but until then I have confidence that you will do as Elvis used to say and ⚡TCB⚡. I’m going to finish this recap later and say a prayer now for justice to prevail and for the ultimate safety for you and Banjo.
This was a TON of Heather in one episode for me, but on the bright side, I think Noella had only one scene. I didn’t pay much attention to Noella’s conversation, because her friend’s plastic surgery was weirdly distracting.
Heather’s dinner party was cringey and odd at the same time, but I do like looking at all her fancy stuff. I throw great dinner parties (at least that’s what people tell me to make me feel better), but I literally lose my shit an hour before anyone arrives. It must be nice to have staff.
Sorry your dog isn’t doing well TT. It is really devastating to face losing a pet.
Why is Heather in all the scenes? She made Gina’s messy closet situation all about herself. She made Dr. Jen’s marriage all about herself. Why does this show revolve around Heather?
Omg that dinner scene with Dr. Jen was so awkward! Why did she feel the need to have like 30 drinks? I think Ryn (Rayn?) perfectly handled himself in that dinner and Jen’s behavior made things significantly worse.
So Ryan is the father of those kids! Somehow he impregnated her while she was dating the billionaire while they were all living in Hawaii and he was compelled to marry her because they had too many kids and that’s how they ended up in California. Is he younger than her? Why is this so fascinating to me?
Emily is too messy and I’ll take Shane over her any day. Get rid of Gina, she’s so boring. Noella is hysterical, great that someone sees right through Heather. We need more Shannon, she’s a gem and it’s nice to see her happy with a man who is good for her.
P.S. TT, when the rest of the world tells us to click a link we avoid it for security purposes but when you say click this link I did right away, lol.
I’m sure heather is a producer since they show pretty much revolves around everything heather. They try to bring in the other women with Emily and her daughter, shannon and the twins, but next scene back to heather going to Gina’s, then Heather’s lunch with Shannon, and finally Heather’s dinner with Jenn. And you did notice those jackets are from ‘Heather’s Closet’. You forgot the Harvard, mention over and over again. And even with having what 3-4 kids already, it was the ring that sold jenn for marriage🤣🤣🤣 my God they make Shane and Emily seem like a true love story, well at least they actually do!
Words can’t describe how much I detest Heather and Terry. Terry is a smug, smarmy, pompous ass. I read a blind that has to be him, describing a West Coast HW DH plastic surgeon who is unbelievably rude and crude and, who, on the day of surgery, requires the patient to sign a contract that they will not disparage him. And apparently he does a terrible job. ugh
Maybe the producers are happy Heather has turned into show producer and the biggest asshole of all time. Totally agree with you, TT, about her grooming Gina and promising to advise Jenn and Ryne on their marriage. Did she get her degree in psychology that we don’t know about. The dinner table was so obnoxious, as she was in describing it as “less fancy” than her usual dinner parties. WTF was that table setting???? She can just shove her amuse bouche where the sun don’t shine. I know Jenn was drunk and behaved badly, but her OTT facial expressions of horror made me want to punch her.
Oh, and her continued flogging of her children’s sexuality to promote yet another tv show deserves a special place in hell. Shameful. Are these people broke? Do they need more money to support that mausoleum? Or is Terry spending a lot on malpractice suits and awards?
Wow. I guess I need more coffee. JMHO
I think Jenn was more than just drunk. Those eyes were insanely glazed over by the end of the meal. That meal was not good advertising for the Dubrow’s new relationship counseling show!!!
First and foremost my heart goes out to you and Banjo. I know it’s a tough time and many of us are here for you.
This pitiful show. Now I watched WWHL and felt like it was a test for Noella since they asked her twice to say 3 nice things about heather. First time she was vile and the second time, didn’t we cover this already. I feel like after all that she’s gone. Also from your bind last week I feel like it was pretty obvious the tensions that were going on not to mention the revolving door of women Heather brought around for new girls next season. But the heather/Shannon and some other bitches lunch felt weird. Like heather thinking to shannon ‘I got your number’ got anything better you can toss at me. Of course jen is crashing and burning, and the show trying to spin it’s just her marriage when we all know the real reasons. Terry is weird, so if you haven’t ever drank, snorted coke, smoked week, oh yeah I’m totally gonna think you’ve done heroin. I know it was his attempt at being funny to a guy with a personality of a sock. Oh yay next week we see the private jet going to Rochester. Curious to know if any of her kids actually went to this school or if it was just something to do and they could film there. This show sucks this year, sadly Kelly was right.
If I remember correctly, Terry’s brother was in Quiet Riot and he died of an overdose. It’s personal for Terry.
Yes! Terry is so immature, I don’t care how much money he has, I couldn’t stand being married to that man. He could try and get to know the guy instead of ostracizing him for not drinking. I’m not a big drinker and hate when people pester me about it. Like the world needs to know I’ve had violent drunks in my family? Yeesh.
Ryne is odd and awkward. And Jen is high maintenance and needy. But no matter how odd or needy, I wouldn’t seek marriage advice from the Dubrows. And Heather is awful ridiculing Ryne about his socks and then the napkin. Miss “perfect hostess” ought to read up on making people feel comfortable!
TT- sorry about Banjo. My old lady hound is 12 and 10 days ago she was very sick and in liver failure but we have turned it around. But it’s so so hard seeing our fur babies hurt.
I’m sort of a bitch. But…. don’t tell anyone…. I’m a marshmallow in the inside. I cannot deal with this. I am losing my mind. He’s my best friend. I would have mocked anyone who said that before he recused me but it’s the truth. I have not slept in my bed for YEARS. Because sometimes he wants to go out at night and I would fall asleep And sleep walk and forget he was outside. Now I wake up every morning to make sure he is inside.
As far as Ryne goes, I think he’s on the autism spectrum. He shows signs like not engaging, or looks uncomfortable around people. My son is diagnosed with Asperger’s and acts similarly. It does seem “odd” to us “normal” people though. You just need to understand autism and how it works. On the flip side, Jen was wasted and embarrassing herself imo. I hated how she forced him to attend this party and then clearly was annoyed by him. So ok, he tucks his napkin in his shirt, he never wears shirts according to the show, so maybe he wants to not mess up the few he has. Ugh. Heather and terry need to go. I can’t stand them and their stuck up noses.
oooh, you may be on to something! Maybe his aversion to wearing clothes (shirts and shoes) is a sensory issue- very common for people with ASD.
I can not parallel park to save my life. And my only 2 accidents were backing up. Maybe we lack depth perception (I’m always 5 feet away from the curb)? I will drive around until I find a normal parking space. Thoughts and prayers for Banjo.
Sorry the rapist is on the loose there and hope he’s behind bars soon. I know what you’re going through with Banjo, it’s so hard to fathom losing your best friend. I haven’t watched the show yet. I thought I was recording it and my dvr decided I was trying to record too many things and skipped over that one. I love Shane & his sense of humor. I don’t know what’s happened to Emily this year but she’s become extremely unlikeable. I can’t tolerate Heather but since I’m going to have to watch the show on On Demand, I won’t be able to fast forward through her scenes. For the life of me, Dr. Jen should probably not have signed up to do the show with so many skeletons in her closet. Why do these people think these legal issues won’t come out once they’re on a TV show?
Thanks Terri, I am trying to focus on all the good things in my life like an award winning investigative reporter in Atlanta using my posts to help him figure out all the stuff about the accused rapist. And when I woke up sad and anxious, all of you are so kind to me. I’m TRYING to focus on the positive. It’s hard though. I do love the Russians who are getting arrested for protesting in Russia where that is not allowed. I have seen this elderly women willing to go to jail for protesting, and apparently she was. But I am exhausted. And may fall asleep before Top Chef and I don’t want to do that. 🙁
I pretty much only watch this show for the fun of reading the recaps and comments. It’s actually pretty boring, and even though Noella gets trashed by alot of viewers and is clearly the odd person out this season, she is the only one who actually brings anything resembling drama to this show and also sees through Heather Dubrow and isn’t willing to lick her boots like the other cast members do. She is right that they all seem practically afraid of Heather and possibly displeasing her. It’s very cringy to watch. I guess it is her wealth that has people in awe because it sure can’t be that super controlling, endlessly self promoting personality. Even her wealth doesn’t make her interesting, just more annoying. Dr. Jen and her marital issues are sad, and her drunken, slurred behavior embarrassing. Emily too when she gets loud and overbearing after too many drinks. Makes you wonder how this type of onscreen behavior might impact the professionally. Gina seems to be vying for top dog this season and targeting Shannon for some reason. Her insistence that Shannon is jealous of her dime a dozen skincare line is pathetic, as is how much she kisses Heather’s skinny rump. Shannon seems more sane and composed than in other seasons. Alot less screechy, self absorbed and annoying. I’m no ageist but honestly she seems too mature for this show and all the stupid fights and backbiting. She must need the money, otherwise it seems like a good time to sail off with John into the sunset. Dr. Jen is so boring I often forget about her, except for last night. Have a feeling she and Noelle will end up being one season and done. Actually, I miss Gretchen, Vicki, Tamra and even Alexis. Far more entertaining to watch than this crew.
I’m not sure why Heather is portrayed as the “know-it-all” this season. I can’t stand her condescending, self-righteous attitude along with the way she pimps out her kids. ARGGGHHHH.
During that dinner party, it seemed like Jen and Ryne were just props to amuse the Dubrows and their other dinner guests. Especially Ryne. They all reminded me of the rich people from The Purge movies. Also, it was rude for Heather to announce after they left that they were having marital problems.
I agree. It’s like Jen and Ryne we’re just invited to be used as the first couple on her new show. If so, that was an epic failure. Terry’s laughing and smirking about it didn’t help either. Any couple who goes on their show should probably assume their problem will be laughed about as well. Oh well, it’s just another money making opportunity to Terry anyway!
Ooooh… that Purge reference was spot on. Now I’m creeped out. Good catch! That was a scary dinner.
Plus they ALL laughed at them after they left. Disgusting.
I hated the moment when Heather mocked Ryne’s napkin behavior when she wrapped herself with her expensive designer scarf. She couldn’t resist an opportunity to displaying her wealth and in her limited mind, her superior status.
Heather is the worst hostess ever.
OK, we can call Heather a cunt all we want, but I’m sorry, I wish I had a controlling rich friend who would come over and give me a closet makeover and gift me fancy clothes. 🤷♂️
I’d be all about letting Heather feel superior if I was getting to enjoy that good life. Guys, if anyone wants a minion you know where I am! 🤗
Heather gave Gina ONE pink jacket (she brought two sizes for Gina to try) that are Heather’s own line “Heather’s Closet” and not really useful. How often could you wear a pink suede jacket? Gina didn’t appear to like it so Heather said “Or you can take out the belt and use it to belt other clothes.”
Sure, Buy a pink suede jacket so you can get a silly pink belt to wear with God-knows-what.
it didn’t even look like something Heather would wear.
How about a white denim jacket? Or a black leather jacket? Or a cream or tan duster? Something neutral to go with other pieces.
Dear Tamara, I am really sorry about Banjo. Your heart must be so full of pain. We know Banjo is your dear friend, your true heart and its dreadful to bear this. I’m so sorry.
I have two little Shih Tzus, one is 13 years old and am dreading the day……She is the first dog I ever owned on my own. All we can do is make their time here as comfortable as possible and love them up.
Any of these housewives having skincare lines doesn’t make sense to me. Why would Gina, Shannon, or
Ramona (on New York) have any knowledge of skin care ingredients? They don’t have chemistry degrees. If they happen to have nice skin, it’s likely due to genetics, expensive procedures like skin peels and lasers, or due to expensive creams that have already been developed.
They don’t have great skin because they went to the drawing board and developed something new.
Didn’t Terry and Heather have a line of skin care too? I remember they were on a home shopping show when Tamra called in as “Cinnamon” and Heather knew it was her. It was a product containing resveratrol so it was either a cream or a suppplement.
Even though Terry is a doctor, he’s not a dermatologist. So even him having a line of skincare was odd.
BTW, Bethanny actually created something, her Skinny Girl Margarita. In early episodes, she would tell the bartender the ingredients she wanted blended into her margarita to make it skinny.
Lisa Vanderpump already had several restaurants and bars behind her over many decades of experience.
People who just pick some item to make and think slapping their name on it makes it special are facing an uphill battle. On Potomac two of the ladies have candle lines. Isn’t everyone pretty much over candles?
They put dirty air into your home, depleting the oxygen and irritating the eyes, depositing smoke on furnishings and glass, just a slow version of cigarette smoke dulling all colors.
. We’ve all been given so many over the years by people who couldn’t be bothered to think of a good gift to give us, that I’ve literally seen silent micro-expressions of sniggers pass among guests when somebody opens a gift to find a candle. It’s a birthday version of being given a fruitcake.
There are lots of famous nice candle lines out there if you absolutely have to have more candles.
Candles create an ambience in a home and make it way more homely and cosy I for one love them! TT I am so sorry about Banjo my pet is my whole heart too and dread the day also! Dogs should live longer than most people FACT they don’t have a bad bone in their bodies:( X
I love candles. I light them every night. I love the warm glow, the fragrances if they are scented, and the ambiance. Just saying🤷🏻♀️🕯💛🕯🧡🕯💛🕯🧡🕯
Totally agree scented are my favourite too 🥰 xx
Anyone catch Terry’s snarky comment at the end? Yes Jen and Rind have issues but mocking that is gross.
Okay I’m confused as to what Jen’s husband’s name is. I thought it was Ryan. Then I thought he changed it to Rhyne like the river. Then drunk Jen said it was Rind like an orange rind. Wth is the dude’s name?
I’m also in agreement with whoever suggested Asperger’s with whatever name it is.
Terry makes my skin crawl.
