By Guest Contributor Becky J. I feel like I need a week-long detox after only seeing the last 10 minutes of Orange County tonight, so I hope Dallas is good. It seems like we start every week on RHOD with a mommy montage. Cary is spending quality time with her sweet little girl, then Stephanie […]
Real Housewives of Dallas: Walking In Memphis
By Guest Contributor Becky J. I hope everybody is staying safe and dry in the midst of Irma. Prayers up for those whose homes and families are in jeopardy. At least we have good TV when reality is depressing, right? Brandi, Stephanie and Cary are getting ready for their trip to Memphis. Cary has a sweatshirt […]
Teen Mom 2: Playing Family Picnic
Kail It seems like Kail suddenly thinks Javi is just great when she realizes that putting a PFA on him will cause her to lose her free babysitter. This will last until Javi files for child support from Kail. Kail is painting a bedroom. Presumably for the nursery. Doesn’t she know that pregnant women should […]
Real Housewives of Dallas: By Invitation Only
By Guest Contributor Becky J. I’m so into RHOD this season. I feel like it’s all the fabulous that Orange County is no longer. There are real fresh friendships, relationship and family issues and actual rich people! I love it! The episode opens at Stephanie and Travis’ new house. They are meeting with the interior […]
Teen Mom 2: On The Hunt
I’m behind on some of the less read recaps this week because there were multiple technical issues on the site that needed my attention. The bottom line is, I’m going to need my own private server. Which is good news, because that means the site is doing very well, but it’s also expensive and scary […]
Real Housewives of Dallas: Face to Two Face
By Guest Contributor Becky J. Time for #RHOD! But, before I start, I want to be sure to mention that my thoughts and prayers go out to all the people in Texas who are impacted by Hurricane Harvey and the terrible flooding right now. Whoever is writing the titles for these episodes is killing […]
Teen Mom 2: MotherDucker
Kailyn Somehow, Janelle of all people found out that Kailyn was pregnant and decided to tweet Kailyn congratulations. Jenelle said she heard it from the crew, which makes sense, but Kailyn doesn’t believe that. I’m sure she will blame Javi for this. Kailyn writes a blog announcing her pregnancy and talking about how people went […]
Real Housewives of Dallas: Haute Dogs of Dallas
By Guest Contributor Becky J. The title of this episode alone makes me laugh. The maid who does Cary and Mark’s laundry and has put two of his special asymmetrical fit right socks together and it’s driving him nuts that he has on two right socks. I wonder why he is powerless to find his […]
Teen Mom 2: Unfinished Sentences
Jennelle Jenelle, the current sperm donor and their brood have moved into the new house. Sort of. When Jenelle goes to pick up David’s daughter with the donut, David calls and Kaiser throws a wingdinger because he didn’t get to talk to David. He’s clearly very attached to him which it going to make the […]
Real Housewives of Dallas: Look Who’s Not Talking
By Guest Contributor Becky J. I’m so excited to be back! I think I’m one of the few people in the world who was genuinely excited about RHOD getting a second season. I just find it SO entertaining! Anytime a show features something as majestic as a psycho carnie punching a trolley, I’m basically gonna […]
Teen Mom 2 Lips Don’t Lie
Jenelle So correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Jenelle just have a baby? And she immediately parcels out all of the kids to go on a romantic trip to the mountains with Baby Daddy 3? I’m already irritated and we are like thirty seconds in to the episode. At least we get to see […]
Teen Mom 2: Tough Proposals
Jenelle This pregnant couple is basically homeless at this point. They are staying at a temporary rental that is fully furnished until their new house is finished. The old place allegedly had mold. I suspect production is putting them up in the interim. The baby will be coming before the new house is ready. Excellent […]
Teen Mom 2: Going Down That Route
Briana Y’all must not have watched Briana’s season because last week you could not have cared less about her. But I found her family quite interesting in that season. Briana seemed like the smartest one in her family. This week Briana finds out that the father of her baby, Lou is cheating on her and […]
Teen Mom 2 Is Back!
I was watching this thinking “I can’t wait for Becky J’s recap!” Then I realized this is another series and she hasn’t signed up for it. So rather than do a real recap I just want to give up a place to talk about it. Chelsea is still happy as a clam with her man […]
Real Housewives of Potomac: Reunion Part 2: Man Problems
By Guest Contributor Becky J. Well, here we are at the end of season 2 of RHOP! I’m actually a little nostalgic because the season ended so much better than it started. It dragged at times, but overall I loved the addition of Monique to the cast and the Huger IRS thing is just too, […]
Real Housewives of Potomac: Reunion Part 1
By Guest Contributor Becky J. It’s finally reunion night for RHOP! And it’s a two-parter—I somehow had it wrong and thought it was just one episode (wishful thinking). Since the news of Karen and Ray Huger’s huge IRS lien broke this week, I’ve been extra excited for the reunion. It will be fun to sit […]
Real Housewives of Potomac: Home is Where the Truth Is
By Guest Contributor Becky J. Here we are at the season finale of RHOP and I still can’t commit to loving it. The nicest thing I can say is that it’s not the worst Housewives franchise ever. And let’s be honest, even the worst real housewives episode is still more entertaining than real life most […]
Southern Charm Savannah: Engagement Rings And Petty Things
It’s time for yet another finale. Even though it took awhile to get used to this new bunch, I believe we were all starting to come around just a little bit. I feel like Brandon sort of makes up for Catherine a bit. Everyone needs a GBF with a closet full of polished silver and […]
Real Housewives of Potomac: The Grand Dame Sham
By Guest Contributor Becky J. I’m late with this recap because there are so many better shows to watch. Can you believe there is only one episode of RHOP left this season? I CAN. To me, it feels like it’s been three years since season two started. But, I’m sticking with it until the bitter […]
Southern Charm Savannah: Saint Simon Says
I am excited for tonight’s episode because the group is going to Saint Simon’s Island where Hannah’s daddy has a house. I lived on SSI for two years and have been looking at houses down there for a while. In my mind I am moving to either SSI or Charleston just as soon as I […]
Real Housewives of Potomac: Welcome to the Bermuda Triangle
By Guest Contributor Becky J. This week, the Potomac ladies are heading off to Bermuda. Gizelle’s mom is coming to stay with her three girls, Robyn deserves a break because her boys are exhausting and Charrisse is bringing her third-person alter-ego “Cha-Cha” to have some fun (which means act nasty and cry about her divorce). […]
Southern Charm Savannah: Bridge Over Troubled Waters
Tonight, everyone is back in Savannah after the hurricane evacuation; but, despite what we thought was a resolution of the situation between Ashley and Hannah it seems Ashley is not done churning up the water. Nelson has found himself in hot water by expressing his racism in Yiddish. It’s terribly sad to see the damage […]
Southern Charm Savannah: The Perfect Storm
2016 was a really crappy year in so very many ways, and one of those ways was all of the tropical storms and hurricanes. Three Bravo shows were affected by the weather. First, Top Chef Charleston filming was impacted by Tropical Storm Bonnie, and tonight, Hurricane Matthew will send the cast from Southern Charm Savannah to […]
Real Housewives of Potomac: A Host of Issues
By Guest Contributor Becky J. At this point, I would have absolutely given up on RHOP if I weren’t writing these recaps. I have more fun reading your comments than I do actually watching the show. As a self-professed Bravo addict, this is hard for me to admit. I have watched every Real Housewives and […]
Southern Charm Savannah: Hurricane On The Horizon
This show is tanking. HARD. It’s a shame because it could have been such a great show about a beautiful city but they just picked the wrong people. On the other hand, Ashley Borders really is the show. Once you accept that it is not the same sort of Southern Charm show you expected and […]
The Real Housewives of Potomac: War of the Darbys
By Guest Contributor Becky J. I barely made it through my recap of RHOP alive last week! I kept thinking about that Starburst commercial where the zombie says, “you are boring me to death and I’m already dead.” That’s how I felt. So, when this week started with my absolute least favorite narrative technique, the […]
Southern Charm Savannah: Boys of Summer
It’s time for Southern Charm’s ugly step-child, Southern Charm Savannah the show one tunes into each week to answer the question, “Where will Ashley be in appropriately wet and nekkid this week?” Actually, I will take nekkid, wet Ashley over all the childhood trauma stories I just endured on the real Southern Charm tonight. Ugh. […]
The Real Housewives of Potomac: Over the River and Through the Woods
By Guest Contributor Becky J. Did you miss RHOP cuz there wasn’t a new episode last week? I didn’t. I keep trying, but this season isn’t really doing it for me. Still, I’m committed (or should I be committed?) so here we go. The first scene is Monique visiting one of her rental properties. She has […]
Southern Charm Savannah: Par For The Strip Golf Course
Oh look, it is me back to recap a second episode of this drivel. The drinking word is “Country Day.” I’d like to point out that Savannah Country Day School is not particularly expensive or selective and they even have a program for the poors. NTTAWWT. I’m just saying it’s not like they went to […]
The Real Housewives of Potomac: Messy Games
By Guest Contributor Becky J. Sunday’s RHOA Reunion Part 4 made RHOP’s “messy games” seem like preschool games in comparison, but it was still a good episode. Maybe now that the Atlanta season is over, we can all enjoy Potomac’s less twisty and jaded brand of shade a bit more. True to the anticlimactic “To […]
The Real Housewives of Potomac: Kick the Trick Out
By Guest Contributor Becky J. Am I the only one who thinks it’s a red flag when a show starts at the end? This week’s RHOP begins with a montage of a party where Monique and Gizelle are fighting and Charrisse is crying. Then, the whole hour is a “rewind” of the week leading up […]
Catfish: Kailani & Sam
Well this show looks a lot more interesting than last week’s already. The email comes from a gay guy named Melvin who was in a cyber relationship with a guy named Sam. Sam displayed all the usual signs of a catfish, no video chatting, could never meet, attempts to meet up thwarted by major […]
Stranded With A Million Dollars: It’s The Last Chance For the Good People To Die
It’s the last episode of Stranded and I am up late recapping it in fear that some twatwaffle will tweet or email me something like,” OMG Did you see that the good people fell in the fire all Mike Skupin style on the finale?” I don’t want to be spoiled. This is the last damn […]
