UPDATE:
PICK UP LETTERS HAVE GONE OUT but SOURCE is not sharing who got them other than Heather and Shannon. HOWEVER when I initially asked if Heather and Shannon were filming, SOURCE said no. Heather and Shannon are hanging out because they know Tamra might be coming back (which to me just sounded like a deliberate understatement my SOURCE) and Shannon and Heather are already plotting to ally against her. Shannon! What are you thinking? I may have to be TEAM TAMRA for the first time in my life! Thoughts? Also, filming starts this month.
Also sorry for not answering many comments. Gmail seems to think all of my emails that notify me of your comments are spam. SO I Don’t get them anymore and they are not even in SPAM! I delete SPAM a lot so that doesn’t help.
Here is where the suits are on Casting for RHOC (as of two days ago). Sorry I have been sleeping a lot.
Interest: 
How can Heather possibly be worth $65,000 an episode? ICK. And ICK about Tamra coming back too. I’d rather have Kelly Dodd on my TV than Tamra. Thanks for the tea, TT.
I’d rather have 3 Kelly Dodds, Vicki and her kids, and Slade rather than Heather rich girl
I love Vicki’s kids. Brianna is and was my favorite cast member across all Housewife platforms. She’s smart, well rounded, level headed and a straight shooter. So I’d take her anytime!
Slade! That’s too funny Shirl59!!
I had rather have “3 Kelly Dodds,” 3 Kim and Troys, and anyone for that matter over Heather and Tamra and Vicki. But I will not watch bcuz of Heather being a shoe-in and it will be the Heather D. show NOT Housewives.
I can’t deal with Kelly D. I’m not loving Heather this year but Kelly is just too much for me
Pretty much all of the RHOA OGs make way more than that. Kandi is the highest paid and is probably at $105,000 right now if not higher.
So wait a minute, Porsha walked away from around $100,000 per episode & quit her radio gig? What the Hell!?!?!
I agree 100%! Heather isn’t worth even $65 dollars an episode much less 65000! Tamra was always back stabbing her friends so I can’t with her either. Kelly definitely was good for the show she was funny and could also bring the shade and she didn’t let anyone walk all over her, but I doubt Bravo will bring her back because they didn’t like her political views.
Her political views are enough for me to have her take a hike.
I guess this will be another year that I do not watch. I cannot stand Heather…..nor the rest of the crew BUT Shannon. So y’all have fun watching another D, show I’ll just continue with my poker game.
Hope you are feeling better Tamara.
But Tamara will be all up HD’s ass!!! Nooooooo!!! We need someone like Yolanda (Diana? 🙂 to come in and Check Ms. Dubrow, pronounced like eyebrow. Jesus, is this the pool we have to choose from? Looking abysmal.
Out with Gina and Emily.
Amen. If we wanted to watch an unwed mom with 6 kids, I would. I don’t. Housewife, she is NOT
Same. I never thought Gina fit in
Nooo,. That’s my neighbor down the street. Keep Emily, plus don’t you all like Shane? Gina can go, also Noella and Dr Jen can go too. Bring back Alexis and her new family.
Thanks for tea.
Ewwww. That’s all I need to be finishED.
3 Kelly Dodds, Vicki, and a million alpacas won’t change my mind.
Hahahahah that’s a good one. Love the alpaca comment lol
I can’t take Heather and Tamara together – they will gang up on Shannon
Hope Gina’s gone for good
we’ll see
I would like OGs back 🙁
Hysterical, We bust the chops of the OG’s until they bring a new blood and then we can’t wait to get them back! I’m good with everybody coming back except for Jill, Kelly B and Kelly D! I read somewhere they were trying to get Simon and his way back but they live in another country. I would love her back just to see Jill’s reaction. Jill was horrible to her .
I would love to see Alex and Simon back! And I believe Andy would too. Realty TV Gold! I want to see what Johan and Francois are like as teens (adults?). I think
Alex is probably disgusted with the direction RH’s have taken. As we know, it’s no longer focused on friendships and showing off what their new money can afford them.
If you look up Alex on Insta you get to see what they’re all up to … pretty sure that Simon is a lawyer now and Alex is a therapist .. Australia did them some good 🇦🇺 ☺️
i’d like kim d. and kim g. brought back. now those two were entertaining!
😹😹😹😹 Those two always brought it! 😹 Remember when Danielle and Kim.G were on the stripper poles? 😹 That “friend” of Danielles, Danny was there.
HEATHER! Nooooooo!
I’m in if Tamra goes after Heather and Gina. Hopefully one of them will have gone to BASS LAKE in the off season lol.
Ugh. Honestly ? RHOC would be more entertaining if they cast a group of 60+ meth addicts from the river bed. At least THOSE guys know how to behave in public. And their faux bags are better quality
Bwahahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
I haven’t watched in years but read TT’s updates. Don’t bring back OGs. Maybe get younger housewives who have real stuff going on with kids etc. and real friends with something in common. After all that’d how RH started. It’s embarrassing to see older women (and the majority are) picking at each other. What happened to the glamour we were all envious of?
Bring in Marissa Hermer (and her hot dog smile that scandalized the pretentious Caroline Stansbury) to RHOC!
Tamra Judge is doing the MOST to reclaim her spot. She is always in “the news” and it looks like her relentless PR campaign might work. 🙁
I’d rather have Kelly back. And doesn’t Tamra have a podcast with “hi, I’m teddy”?? So she couldn’t do that then, right? Heather is sooo skin crawling, I just can’t with her. I live in Cdm (Newport), I know tons of women who are NOTHING like any of these asses they have on this show. Where did they dig these people up from? They must have put out a casting call like “Wanted: Pretentious, nouveau riche (or those pretending to be), nit-picking, catty, jealous, plastic surgery obsessed women who don’t clean their own homes, do their own yard work, cook meals for their family, work at anything remotely resembling a 40 hr work week and snipe at their husbands. Oh, you don’t need to be married and if a divorce is looming in your future, you are most likely guaranteed a slot.”
I’ll just read your recaps TT. Thanks for all your work. did I say Heather makes my skin crawl? My first knitting shop (Sheared Sheep) used to be next to Terry’s office on Westcliff in NPB. The women going in and out of there? Please.
Your FIRST knitting shop! I MUST know more!
Do yip still have it? Do you have a second knitting shop? Do you sell online?
Brand New Exclusive update added to post. WARNING You are not going to believe/like it. I GUESS IT IS ONE OF THOSE THE ENEMY OF MY ENEMY IS MY FRIEND Art of War kind of things. UGH.
Weren’t the three Amigos, Tamra, Shannon and Vicki? This makes not sense to me.
I’m not 100% convinced on this – I was listening to Two Ts in a Pod the other week and it sounded like Tamra and Shannon were trying to build some bridges.
I assumed Shannon got whiff that Tamra may be returning and wanted backup for Heather / the others?
Not sure what the sources were saying (and this doesn’t negate it), but that was out of Tamra’s mouth!
I listen to Tamra’s podcast as well— she is actually good at it (unlike Teddy). Tamra was teary talking about how Heather Dubrow said that Tamra couldn’t come back because she was a “blogger.” Tamra felt that was a way to sabotage her with the Bravo suits. I agree.
Frankly, I hope it is not true. I can’t see it. But when I asked if Shannon and Heather were already filming, I was told that filming had not started yet. It will or has any day now but not back then. My source said “Shannon and Heather are bonding because they are worried about Tamra coming back.” My source is usually right. I hope this is one of the very few times they are wrong.
If they get rid of Noella over Jen I will be pissed. At least Noella will confront Heather and she has a storyline. Although with Shannon going to team Heather, Noella will have to be BFFs with Tamra and that would not bother me.
Unless all of Jen’s legal woes played out on TV? They suits do so love a felon by Bravo after all!
Good point!
Still trying to fix notifications please ignore.
If Heather and Shannon team up against Tamara I will be furious! What the holy hell!!! I don’t want Tamara back either but would enjoy seeing her and Shannon go against Heather. Absolutely do not want to see Vicki but would love to see Brianna. I would rather see Kelly come back than Heather, Gina, Emily, Dr (??) Jen, or Tamara back. The way Shannon was treated last season still pisses me off to no end when I think about it. I honestly had a hard time watching Heather’s pretentiousness and Gina’s new-found (from where I have no f’ing clue) snobbish bullying. I read recaps instead. Rant over. Life is hard enough!
They should cast Paris hiltons husbands baby momma. She was on a show called secrets of Aspen and she lives in Orange County
WHAT! He has a love child!
It’s an old tired show – can’t stand Heather, Noella is awful, Dr Jen is a big bore, Gina never should have been on the show…….time to cut the cord!
I would LOVE for Tamra to come back. I hope it’s true. Two T’s in Pod is my favorite podcast because of Tamra AND Teddi.
Wait, didn’t we already do this season with Lizzy in Bali trying to take Tamra down. Real original Bravo, well done for keeping it fresh! Is Heather gonna remind us again she was in Tamra’s wedding and how could she talk crap about her to make a podcast. I do wonder who they will pair Tamra with though, surely either another OG or all new cast please! So more of this she said/she said model these franchises love so much. Just as long as I don’t have to hear about the fake outrage with Gina’s skincare thing because she will not be asked back, lord please🙏
Tamara may be out on her own. Or maybe there will be another new person? I hate that Shannon has gone to the dark side.
Oh, fuck, no! NOE!
What if tge suities are keeping a DARK secret and they plan to bring Vicki back to make it 2 against 2?
That would be a coup for Bravo and for the people who like fighting and yelling. I prefer people having fun and falling in bushes. Even pooping on the floor over fighting.
I think that’s the only combo that can take on Debrow and her puppet. Seems like all of these shows are going to the realm of dividing the cast. I can’t remember laughing at these women being stupid silly like the tarma bachelor party days.
I’m here for Tamra’s comeback, she would really solidify the cast and the drama. Personally wouldn’t want any cameos or acknowledgments of Vicki or Teddi. Fire Gina, and bring on one of heathers or Noelland rich friends as the FOH.
I’ve been coming back to this post to see any updates it popped in my head and did the math, Heather makes a few thousand more in one episode than noella did her entire season! That’s crazy!!
Back during season one or two of RHOA the originals all got paid the big bucks. For each renewal the get a 5% raise or it might be 10% I always forget. Then Kandi got Most favored nation clause in her contract that means no one can make more than her. At the time Nene had the same attorney and got the same thing. She lost that when she left the first time so Kandi is the highest paid. Kim Z also had a similar clause in her contract. Kenya got a very nice contract her first season with increase each year. Most everyone after that got modest contracts. At that point they just wanted to be on the show. Heather still has her old salary from when they thought they had to pay well. Again since just after Kenya was hired they decided the huge salaries were no longer necessary That is why Nicole,Gina, Emily etc don’t make nearly as much as Shannon and Heather, and soon to be Tamra.
Wait K’man is on to something! I actually would mind if they relocated Teddi to OC so she can team up with Tamra to take on Heather and Shannon. Don’t get me wrong – will probably never happen. But I wouldn’t hate it.
Teddi isn’t much of shit stirrer…though right? Or maybe I’m thinking of Denise.
Teddi BECAME a shit disturber out of desperation to keep her job. She was REALLY BAD at stirring up shit as soon as Brandi “confided” the Denise crap.
I’m with you K’man.
I just can’t be Team Shannon anymore if my source is correct and she is going to the dark side. Heather makes Tamra seem fun.
How would Tamra coming back work? Her new job is her podcast where she talks about the housewives show,,would RHOC just get super meta?
Good question.
I bet Tamra will quit the pod cast for her giant RHOC check
I wonder about this, especially as on RHOA porsha did Dish Nation, and with RHOBH Garcelle did…what was that show called again? 🤔 Anyway, I know those aren’t podcasts but both talked a lot about the franchises.
I also find it ironic Noella is being labeled inauthentic (I felt that at times too to be fair) and at the bottom of the list, but then self producing Heather who is the epitome of inauthentic (at least for this season) is secured. Like…ok…
Love her or hate her, Noella is best addition in quite some time bc she’s young, vibrant, and far more interesting then Emily & Gina combined. If they are thinking of longevity of the OC Noella should be part of their future.
Weren’t we supposed to hear about how her friendship with Braunwyn soured? Did that happen and I missed it? I’m probably the only one who was curious, but I did wonder what was gonna be fed to us.
Teddy is great friends with Kyle on RHBH and knows the back stories, like the infamous Aspen trip. She keeps it pretty tight and only discusses what the viewer sees. xWonder if Tamra can keep a secret? If she comes back, you know production or Bravo will have ears on her podcast. I enjoy their podcast and Mercedes and Tommy.
I liked Emily. Gina, I could take or leave. Jen is dull even with her marriage imploding.
Heather had/has a podcast before/after her whole run so I don’t know why it would be a problem if Tamara has one. Heather used unknown sidekicks to recap each week and do the shit-stirring for her…. The male cohost is the one who brought up Tamara and how he wouldn’t want to see her as a new cast member.
Bring back Jo (Spade’s ex GF) with her new husband and Jeana, the original OGs.
I’d love to be to see a Shannon, Kelly D., Tamra and Gina
