~ The Real Housewives of Orange County ~ Season 12~ 2017 ~ JULY 10th

[sasywtch]

I have to watch the new season of New Jersey but after that, I will not tune into Bravo again. I knew they were going down the sleeze train but giving Tamra her own show? That is the bottom of the gutter sleeze.

I didn't feel like Tamara was jealous of Gretchen I thought she just thought it was a dumb move due to all the financial issues Slade has and she thought it was stupid that Gretchen has to pay for it. I thought I saw on a recent Watch What Happens live that Gretchen and Tamara were still friends.

I also like Lydia and I hope she will talk some sense into Alexis. I do have to say while she still gets on my nerves Jim is not so bad this year (knock on wood)

I hate when bravo gives the housewives spin off shows. Just leave them be. I did not watch any of them and will not start now.

Confession:
I watch Kim Zhoweveritsspelled's show. I have never watched whatever Real Housewives she is/was on.

I did not think that Tamra and Gretchen were not friends anymore--I thought everyone at the table thought that Slade and Gretchen's RR move was stupid and that sort of gave Vicki and Tamra a common bond, so to speak. Then, when they were sitting there agreeing about whatever, I think there was a slight moment of whatever they had in the past friendship. I think Gretchen sensed that and then the snarkiness started. That's how I saw it, looks, words, body language...

That Alexis is just a whacko on this show. Not sure how she is in RL but the show portrays her as very flaky. The the others seem quite self centered and angry, even, (except Lydia) but Alexis is flighty. She can;t act and no one wants to tell her that. I guess if she will pay for acting classes, why not take her money?!! That's what it seems like. "And THIS week's lame brain idea for my life is ____." ugh.

Ok so I'm watching and I'm looking at Gretchen. She obviously had her lips done but did she get a nose job too?? She looks normal in her interviews but looks so different other times.

She has admitted to having her lips dine but not sure about anything else.

I think you can really see the difference from the side. I think that's why I notice it the most at like their dinner parties.

I think she just had the lips done though. Duck face for sure.

 

[Nik's Mom]

Why do all these women mess up their lips?

Monkey see, monkey do?

So as of now, are Vickie and Brooks officially over? How can Vicki not see what a jerk he is? some of the things he says to her is just so ignorant. She should run far, far away from him.

I noticed last night that Lydia does not look like she's had any work or Botox. When she raised her eyebrows, she had wrinkles on her forehead (gasp!). Sitting in the cafe, she made Alexis look animatronic.

I think Lydia is still pretty young. Give her time. She'll jump on the duck lip/botox bandwagon.

Tamra brought her mom to that speech so she could blame her for her (Tamra's) bad decisions and make her feel bad. It was typical Tamra.

Yup! A good therapist would have told her that yes, she is a product of her childhood. But once she became an adult, she was responsible for her decisions. Own your own mistakes.

Lydia is definitely a front-runner for me as well.

Tamra, jeez, what a mess she's turning out to be!
Alexis, ugh, get over yourself...you were late to class (rude and attention-seeking) and that's acting?
Vickie, can't you see Brooks is a creep? Ew, when she said "Well can I take a raincheck?" he seemed rather ambivalent.
Gretchen used to be ok, but as another poster mentioned, she's gettin' a little flaky this season too.
Heather was mean to Terry but I guess he made it up to her pretty good.
Laurie looked awful but I still like her. Can't believe Josh is married with a child!

 

[Soldier's*Sweeties]

I'm watching now...

God I hate Brooks. What a jerk. His response to her when she said she was babysitting was ridiculous! Like, "Well... If that's what you want...but you're missing out in this."
*shudder

I agree. Who would be jealous of someone paying for an expensive, useless, luxury w/ money the giver doesn't have? And who drives a RR? I live in a neighborhood filled with RRs and other over-the-top luxury vehicles and NO ONE drives their own RR. When Gretchen said, "I need a driver for this," she was on target and exposing Slade's ignorance. I see dozens of RRs a day, and I've never seen an owner behind the wheel. If you want an uber-expensive car and you want to drive it yourself, get a Bentley or a Maserati.
More importantly, who LEASES a RR? If you can afford a RR, just pay for it.

CREEEEEEP-O! How can Vicki be the only person on Earth who doesn't find this man creepy?

But when you can't afford it, lease it.

Brooks is CREEPY. Ick,ick.ick.

I actually kind of liked Tamra's speech. I think it does explain some of her personality traits. I also liked her having her mother listen, but they should have talked about once they left the expo.

Gretchen was really annoying with the ultrasound. Over the top inappropriate over the instrument.
