Hmm that is an interesting episode title. I’m so ready for this Southern Charm recap! And thank you all so much for your kindness during a very scary and dark time for me. It’s probably time for me to have some sort of old lady “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up device.” I probably also need to return to the old lady pool and renew my hatred of the Honey Badger. LOL. I am feeling much better today. Much like Cunty Diana I was supposed to be on bed rest, or more specifically just resting my back for a few days. I did, at least for a day or two and am feeling MUCH BETTER and ready to hunch over my computer on the couch again. SO I AM BACK BITCHES!
My improvement shows it is probably just a severe sprain of my whatever the NP said and not a cracked rib. The UTI is is improving on the shitty four day antibiotics. Thanks for all the love. It helps more than you know to know someone is out there listening. I hope I can be the same for you. Now, LET’S DO THIS Southern Charm RECAP! Oh and I commented A LOT today on the RHOB/DUBAI thread. Thanks so much for reverse recapping for me. Again, I am so lucky to have all of you in my life.
The Man Childs
Dear Lord in Heaven. I had a good body at when I was young but, DAYUM Venita. I have a girl crush. Um, ancient old lady crush. 🙂 Also, shout out to Pauline who I will probably think about every time I spritz perfume on my neck and Evian on my face ( it’s my self care go to I posted to her about) I am ready! Evian spray is HIGHLY underrated. OMG Leva and her boy Lamar are ADORABLE. Why is John Pringle the only actual man on this show? The rest are all man childs. Why aren’t they embarrassed? Craig is the only one who is at least attempting to be a man. John Pringle is fucking gorgeous. That is my type. Send me one of those 15 years older with no baggage. 🙂

Jesus Taylor has the perfect body. Can we get some fat chicks on this show that I can identify with? LOL off topic but Leva unfollowed the entire cast on this season after filming ended so… that should be go. I HATED he constant preaching last season. But, know it alls irk the living fuck out of me, so maybe it is a me issue. I know I sound OBSESSED but I am. I think Venita is the most beautiful person in the world. Sorry, not sorry. She needs a MAJOR storyline. I love Taylor. The girls are way more interesting on this show. Her mama seems sweet. Like normal people in the south.
Broken Bromance
I could sum this episode up with Shep is a dick and a horrible person. There is a commercial on my end about doing the Time Warp. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I NEED A MIDNIGHT SHOW OF ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW RIGHT NOW. Sorry. Um recapping again for all the folks who somehow read here for “the recaps” and don’t care for my incessant personal information. I’m not TMZ I’m just a lonely old lady with a website. Take it for what it is or fuck off.
(interlude with Whitney and Patricia) no one asked for this. No one cares about the carpet bagger. I miss Michael.

Craig and Austen have a talk. I hate Austen. He is not a good friend. Also, I used to root for Kathryn. I have abandonment issues too… BUT SOMETIMES IT IS YOU! Later, the man children get together. Madison is engaged. I honestly had to remind myself who she was or why anyone, even us, would care. But let me go along with it.
Did Shep just say he doesn’t want to have a kid and he uses no protection. AND THEN he says . SHEP IS SUCK A BAD HUMAN. Even Austen knows that. Madison announces her engagement. I could not possibly care less. Chleb wants to try to reconnect with Kathryn. He is way too good for her and I am a huge Kathryn fan. She is a moron. And she is HORRIBLE with fake crying. RUN CHELB RUN!
I agree! And thank you for coming back. I feel like I am not alone hearing your challenges.
Shep: ugh, I wonder if his thoughts are for tv? Maybe his gf wants the coverage? I don’t get it
I think Katherine honestly thought if she broke up with Chelb it would be like a Thomas break up and we’ll, blah, blah
Madison and Austin what??? Who cares
I miss Michael and send him so many blessings in his recovery.
TT – I read through the Sheree crap and cannot believe the crazy. You’re amazing to keep on with this site! ❤️
LOL ThANKS NO ONE seems to KNOW HOW DuMB SHEREE IS. IT WAS HARD NOT TO LAUGH. She is REALLY REALLY REALLY DUMB.
I am so glad you’re back. You really keep a lot of us going.
I was ready for this tonight in hopes it would not be as disgusting as last night’s RHOBH. That episode really F’n bothered me watching Sutton & a 14 y/o treated so shitty – especially a supposed friend calling bullshit when someone tells you they had 2 miscarriages.
Shep is a bad person, but we expect it from him, so it’s not so disappointing. Taylor could do much better. Austen is a shitty friend. I think he’s jealous of Craig. I definitely think Shep is. I think they wanted Craig to be a f*ck up to make themselves feel superior. I’m tired of rooting for Katherine. I think she is a very high maintenance friend, girlfriend, etc. She’s too self-absorbed to ever really give a shit about another person. Venita is gorgeous. Charleston is gorgeous. I would love to live there.
I was fixated on Kathryn driving with one hand holding her phone while talking, the other hand gesturing wildly, and her left knee steering the car IN THE RAIN 🙄
Me too. Visibility looked poor as well. Is this legal in America? Kardashians do it too is there no Bluetooth???
It bugs me that none of these people on these shows use their Bluetooth! Any moron can sync it up!
I was fixated as well. I was trying to figure out if she had bought a self driving vehicle!?! Bless her heart, she just can’t seem to get it together.
Chleb must be breathing a huge sigh of relief. He dodged a bullet.
Kathryn is beyond immature & has zero communication skills. Two episodes of seeing them as a couple showed her as disrespectful. As if she thought she was better than him, he had no voice and had to cater to her & her histrionics.
Count your blessings Chleb! You have an angel on your shoulder!
This was just the 2nd episode of Southern Charm I’ve ever watched so I’m not familiar with all of the characters. Shep, Austen and Craig I’m familiar with. They’re everything a man shouldn’t be. John Pringle is gorgeous. I knew of Kathryn/Thomas but had absolutely no idea the whiny blond with Chleb was Kathryn. He’s nice — she isn’t. He needs to move on asap.
Pringle and Chleb are both gorgeous. l also completely forgot about Madison. Funny. Had no clue who she was when she started talking. I don’t care about Kathryn anymore. I love how honest and not mean Chleb was when talking to her. But to leave “home” and not communicate for 5 days? I don’t think l would be able to forget and forgive that.
Five days and then, “Hey, what ha cooking?” If I were Kathryn I’d have thrown it at him. She is no prize, but abandonment is a huge red flag.
PS. What the fuck was she serving? Ugh. And her hands are always so dirty. Mental health issues?
Seriously! What was that dinner?! It kind of looked like rice and meatballs in ketchup or tomato soup? I hope someone recognizes it and let’s us know.
I came to the conclusion it was meatballs in tomato/bbq sauce and served with mash.
Sure beats baked salmon slathered in Mayo 😉
Lol. I mean. Wow. I’d rather starve.
Do you wonder who are “real friends” on Southern Charm? Who are “TV friends”?
Last season Leva was preachy, judgy and received too much screen time…..I think that has been corrected. Kudos on her weight loss and surgical transformation!!
Why are we subjected to Olivia and her family? Why should I care about her?
I LOVE Naomie……..glad she is back!!! The producers are upping her presence……YAY!!!
Kathryn……….I used to feel for her. I rooted for her…..This season, she is an awful girlfriend. She is an awful person!! Chleb deserves a sweet person………..run Chleb run….before she manufactures another Ravenel L. baby. (I know they are broken up in real time…). Kathryn is an island in this show. NO ONE is friends with her. Producers are forcing her inclusion.
Shep……….is anyone surprised about his selfishness?? He is proud of his ways. He hasn’t changed from Season 1. Nor does he want to………does that make him a bad person?
Venita, a lovely full time addition to the cast. She seems “real friends” with Madison, Naomie. Did I mention I LOVE Naomie……
We need MEN on this show……..It’s tiring watching the men-children…..Austen and Shep. Craig has grown up and Pringle is a grown up.
Whitney and Pat are out of place this season. I enjoy watching Pat as the Grande Dame……..but it’s repetitive seeing her be domestic or going to McDs….Miss you MIchael…
Whitney, he is my favorite man on this show……. Call me if you’re in NY………I’ll pick up that call….
Haven’t watched (yet) but now I want to go see The Rocky Horror Picture Show Again!!!
Remember the good old movie theater days of TRHPS 🫦 with the audience throwing of rice and toast, and the squirt guns mimicking the rain at the movie’s beginning? Gawd I miss the late 70’s!
Yes!! Audience participation! One time I went with my first husband who was disabled and using a wheelchair, they let us in free thinking he was dressing up for the show! We laughed and threw toast and it was hysterical!!! I miss the 70’s as well.
We were still doing the time warp and throwing rice well into the 80s.
Just saw it recently on tv. That movie is ageless!
🫦🫦🫦
That film is everything. Loved it & went often in my youth ! I love musicas but especially this one ! Have a great weekend twin 😊
I grew up watching TRHPS in the 80’s
That and grease were my mums most favourite movies so by the age of five we knew every single song. I don’t know how it looked when I would sing and dance to ‘sweet transvestite’ while we were waiting inline at the shops and the bank etc … ahhh memories
A lot of those songs were played at mums funeral and I just laughed through tears at how ridiculous it was.
Now that’s the kind of funeral I want!
Yayyyyyyyy you’re back!!!! 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
I can’t with this show (spoken with Craig voice).
I DVR’ed so I could fast forward. Even with this super power I only made it 20 mins.
“Oh, let me throw a party. No promot. Just me totally acknowledging I’m on tv”. Ughhhhhjhh. Liars. All liars
TT I’m a very long time lurker, and was so happy to see you continued posting. I love your writing and your recaps are awesome not only because of your humor, but because of your personal stories and your comments on your day to day! I would still visit multiple times daily even if it was just a site about you😂! I had my first and only baby three months ago and especially during pregnancy and now with constant feedings you are a lifeline. I am rooting for you and hope you feel better soon.
Now about the show…why has Kathryn become so unlikeable, and I cannot stand Austen. How he gets the ladies is a mystery, and enough with the beer that someone else created please! He reminds me of the turtles on Mario. And Leva is hot this season and much more likable!
Thanks! I LOVE BABIES! It’s the main reason I am now Team Lawn Kid’s Baby Mama! Their baby is so adorable. There is a whole new Lawn Kid drama here.Basically, I paid him in advance for some lawn work because he was supposed to be buying a car that night. All lies. I saw all the red flags and ignored them because I have seen him and baby mama and baby walking to the Yellow Store in the Georgia summer heat.
Damnit I was hoping Lawn Kid was turning it around now that he’s a family man. I still have hope for him. My little boy is amazing, I never had thought I’d have so much fun with a baby. He looks exactly like his daddy but he has my blue eyes but apparently no kids in his family keep their blue eyes 😭.
I second that ! Never give up hope. I dream of reading that he grows up & lives a good life. Fingers crossed!
I am glad you feel up to writing! I agree that Shep and Austen are children. Austen wants to be Shep and Shep is happy to be himself.
I have become impressed with Craig but I really wish he wouldn’t be so dismissive of his Naomi hook-up. I don’t think that was a “been there” for her.
Madison continues to be amazingly pretty without being cookie-cutter. Kathryn has worn out her welcome in my head.
So happy you’re feeling better Tamara!
Shep was attractive for the first couple of seasons, but I’m not impressed with his adolescent schtick. It’s just not cute. The only time anymore I find him sexy is on the dance floor shagging (the dance, not copulation, to be clear).
Kathryn has used up her nine lives as far as I’m concerned. I found her endearing in her own way in the beginning and I had hoped she had finally straightened herself out after she got shared custody a few years ago. But alas, she didn’t stick the landing. I don’t think any better of Thomas; in fact I loathe him. Those poor kids. I understand substance abuse. I’ve been through it with my own family and also myself. Although I would like to be able to say I don’t fault her for her relapses, I do. She’s been given ample chances to get clean and stay that way. And she has more resources than most of us. And she’s just so damn negative and immature.
Ya know what? I m sort of thinking they should just cancel this show. Yes, just because I say so 😎
Think Shep really wants to be with Kathryn.
Naomi when she reprimanded Craig for chewing ice! Bitch please I’ll chew ice all fucking day if I want! Don’t get me wrong I totally get it. I think living with Craig in that I’m trying to be a lawyer don’t really want to be a lawyer period would have been tough. She would have been thinking I’m going to marry a procrastinator. If this isn’t an advertisement for follow your passion I don’t know what is. I’m so happy for Craig. I want him to be with someone who lets him be him. I’m not totally against Naomi it’s just the whining and trying to “fix” him. Love or hate her we haven’t seen Paige do this yet. Mind you Paige is getting the motivated successful pillow man.
I love Olivia and her family. Again it’s real money and I loved how her mum just said said do better re the Netflix and chill offer from Austen. If this is what he offers at the beginning of dating doesn’t set the bar high. Wise Mumma. Plus Olivia standing up to Naomi and her pack I was impressed.
Kathryn I think is more unlikeable because we aren’t seeing any of her mothering. Its just the hardened Kathryn. I also agree if my man disappeared for 5 days no word. Byeeeeee. I think the comments about her shoving the kids on him was a deal breaker for her too. I actually agree with her. She seemed so much softer talking to Chleb’s mum. She needs a strong man that’s also a nurturer. Someone that says yes I disagree with you but I’m not going anywhere.
I love Shepp. It’s the kind of confidence only a shit tonne of trust fund money can give you. He is honest. If he doesn’t want to have children then that’s fine. He has told Taylor that. What is his cousins name? I love her! I feel Shepp will see her with the baby and maybe things will start to change for him.
Can I just say… I don’t get why shep doesn’t want a kid.. I mean with all that trust fund $ he can not only afford a kid but still afford the lifestyle he wants – aka afford 24/7 help etc.
I’m just saying
I really don’t think Shep would be a good father. If he doesn’t want a kid, he shouldn’t have one. It’s not about money, in my opinion.
Welcome back! Chelb is such a welcome addition. I am enjoying the shift in camera time for Chleb, Naomie, Venita and Olivia. I met Venita at apparel market and she is all that and a bag of chips. Gorgeous.
I have to say Shep has surprised me in the way takes care of Craig – the dog, not the friend. I think there is hope for him as a father yet. He knows Taylor is not on birth control, so he is passively agreeing to kids. They are in a committed relationship. He has the power to cover it or to insist she use birth control.
Does the paycheck from these shows end up helping or hurting these people? I think Summer House helps as it keeps the “stars” on a schedule where they continue to work their 9-5, Monday – Friday job. Like Vanderpump Rules. eventually they leave their lower paying day jobs and become people who sleep too much to be interesting. I’m looking at you Austin. The hustlers and workers are the interesting characters!
