tv show The Real Housewives: The Megathread

[RihRihGirrrl]

Heather is too weak to carry a darn franchise....that whole black eye segment was pathetic 

[Rush]

It was hard to watch. Monica fumbled hard but it also felt like a gang up. 

[Rush]

They saw the reaction from gay Twitter and said, we need to do damage control

Damn that was hard to watch. Monica could definitely work on not just jumping to being so defensive and yelling, over taking a moment to listen and apologise, but damn, the staged massacre by the other ladies was too much.
 

Like they said, it didn’t matter what she said at that point so I guess it doesn’t matter but the fact the majority of what they were angry about was her reposting stuff Jen had said is actually so pathetic, made even more pathetic that they are trying to twist it into making it sound like it was Monica’s words and not listening when she tried to explain what she was trying to do. 
 

The only valid thing they have to be upset about is that she was being deceptive and not being open about it, but obviously she wanted it to come out in some big dramatic way, which when it did, ironically saved the entire ******* franchise. 
 

And don’t get me started of Ms Gay, acting like a total ******* clown during a reunion yet again. I have to give it to her, she was committed to her performance but those crocodile tears and 2 minutes later the evil, conniving smirks she was trying to hide every 5 minutes really said it all. She couldn’t handle that this brown lady with virtually nothing hustled her way onto the show which she was barely clinging onto with her stupid bad weather storyline and covering up for a literal criminal and lying to everyone for over a year.
 

I hope she and the rest of the ladies are happy because next season is going to be a total snooze and the ratings will drop and they will have no one to blame but themselves. Watching them all be fake kumbaya with each other and saying how much they all loved each other leaving Monica out made me sick.
 

These ladies are all so full of **** and I know Monica is clearly a bit psychotic and crazy but she hasn’t done anything unforgivable and these ladies are pathetic for actually managing to ice her out.

Awww the fumes from the Monica stans…. There’s always her instagram page if you’re that desperate to keep up with Monica. Otherwise, don’t watch next season if you don’t want to. 
 

Ctfu at her mom tweeting that Monica should be in movies. The delusion runs so deep in that family. 

[Breathe On Moi]

monica literally flopped at the reunion, I’m sorry…she was yelping.. and the attempt at that burn book was just embarrassing, I cringed  

 

and the reveal of her watching Jen on cameras and driving by etc., like that’s all just weird and creep levels beyond. there’s no more to her story left for next season, the shock factor is done. 

[Chemist]

That Variety article about Monica 'perhaps' making a comeback is sooo purposely planted by Bravo to shut the fans . The comeback (if it ever happens) will be fake af. Either comeback dragging the girls or stay paused

[fememeist]

I’m loving the Erika/Crystal/Sutton/Garcelle team  who knew we’d experience an Erikassance especially from the mess of the last three seasons 

[fememeist]

Is SLC that good? The ladies look and sound so unseasoned to me 

[Erotic]

Heather and Lisa always win! 

[JoeRobert]

I think Monica going is a mistake but she did herself no favours at the reunion. This final part was terrible though, they all just shouted over each other. Heather being offended about them posting what Jen said made no sense, and her black eye explanation was embarrassing. Why are they treating this 50 year old women like a child who’s been so abused by Jen when she’s physically shoved Whitney several times and treated the other women terribly.

S2 and S4 are better than any RHOBH season since S5

Variety just released an article with Heather Gay about the whole Monica situation, and in it the show runners and Andy Cohen say:

 

Which is why Cohen — as well as Lisa Shannon, the SVP at Shed Media, which produces “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” and showrunner Lori Gordon — tell Variety that Garcia won’t be returning for Season 5.  “The women just need a cooling off period, and I think it’s just too soon,” Gordon says in a breakdown of the events of the finale and Part 3 of the reunion for Variety’s Making a Scene. “They’ve articulated it. It’s too soon for them to reenter into a friendship — a trusting friendship. Not enough time has passed.” Shannon agrees. “We’re starting to film relatively soon, and I think that everyone needs a minute,” she says. (Production on Season 5 begins on Feb. 5.) The door isn’t entirely closed to Garcia, though: Gordon says, “Never say never,” while Shannon adds, “You never know.” 

 

I think that they are benching her for S5, with the intentions of possibly bringing her back afterwards. 

 

In my opinion, she fumbled the last part of the reunion. She should've owned up to all the things she did, but instead didn't seem to have regrets about what she did. I was really rooting for her, but she is her own worst enemy. It became clear she gave up when she didn't have anything left to say that the end of the reunion. I was hoping for a path forward, but it's clear that at this point in time, there isn't. Who knows though...

 

So what this REALLY means is...the ladies need to keep Mary on ice because if Mary gets her snowflake back then Monica will have an immediate way back in.

What this also means is the ladies not only NEED to bring it...they need to bring in FOHs and a replacement or two that make next season so worthwhile that they don't even consider bringing Monica back.

 

So the ladies better work. They already have been bringing in new girls (some were spotted at Lisa's Vida event recently).

Jen really had that much of an impact on them  

 

Rich white women are so unserious  

Quiet as kept, Jen is a scammer that made herself appear grateful to be around these women. As SOON as they let their guard down, she let them expose themselves and gained leverage.

 

I'm pretty sure she has goods on all of them pre-housewives and held it over their heads. They won't admit it but I think some trysts and some toot toot of the powder and for some (a few racial slurs captured on a camera phone) are why they are hesitant to go there with Jen. She set them up good. They are STILL in fear of her while she is behind bars fighting for her virginity against Big Bev and Rowdy Rhonda.

[Maddox]

Looks like Garcelle's been vindicated (re:Dorit's micro agressions) lol. Her confessional from the recent preview was so awkward to watch...

[TryMe]

We finally bonded with the ladies of RHOSLC even with long face Angie. Now they removing a key player? Dumbest mistake ever. Who are these executive at Bravo? 

 

If they would fight now they actually been through something together - fighting over something real. Not fighting over some made up rumours, that they made up themselves. 

 

And the ratings didn't lie!

I just want lisa fired

And there we have it still trying to please the criminal who punched her in the face. She is such an embarrassing housewife it’s actually cringe.

[Mornings]

Yeah, Monica was good TV, but did you guys forget this is Salt Lake City, land of the freaks? There are PLENTY more Monica’s out there who aren’t bizarre stalker, plotting, actresses who ruin the last shred of integrity the housewives franchise had left

Yet the only people they added since s1 have been dull apart from her. Jennie, Danna and the angies aren’t up to her calibre.

One thing we can count on is the fans hyping up her micro aggressions and making excuses for her. They will always attack the people who notice this behavior (Like Garcelle) and somehow try to make Dorit the victim as they do here in the replies of this video.

You get an all time housewives episode that will probably go down in reality history. Only to get rid of the individual responsible. 

You mean Heather? All Monica did was sit on a table getting gooped and gagged by everyone including clueless ass Angie lmfao.

It’s only been 4 seasons. It took 4 seasons for Potomac to peak. It will be okay. I have a feeling now that the women all know each other and have a kind of good dynamic that is solid but can morph around into different alliances, they can find someone to better fit

It took Potomac 4 seasons to peak, but it only took them 5 seasons to start tanking, and SLC has a lot in common with RHOP5, which, despite being good, definitely started their downfall.

 

Both have: 
 

1) A big bombshell moment that shakes the cast/fanbase.

 

2) The elimination of a controversial Housewife who the OGs thought was declassing the show.

 

3) An awkward, new full-time housewife who seems out of place. 

 

4) A veteran cast with no breakout star like Nene/Bethenny trying to determine who does/doesn’t deserve to be on TV.

Heather orchestrated the perfect 5v1 takedown and then at the reunion, gave the best performance possible.  She gave Monica chance after chance to explain herself, owned up to the black eye stuff, and even showed empathy to Monica! And before you knew it … Monica just couldn’t own up to anything she did, she took herself out and it’s all thanks to Heather.
