Yes I'm a Bravo Housewives fan and I am excited for Orange County b/c they have definitely stepped up their game. Let's see:

Tamara is broke and on the brink of divorce (allegedly) and still calling out Gretchen to be elderly pimpin' Ho!

Jeanna is broke and trying to borrow money from Vicki

Vicki is draped in the cheddar, has reconnected with her non-working husband and apparently is not loaning out any money.

Lynn is still in need of a face lift and still lying about her age as if no one can see she's 45 going on 60. Well, at least she can design cute cuffs.

Gretchen is a Ho and still macking on Slade aka Jo De La Rosa's sloppy seconds.

And there is some new chick with really big fake boobs and money in the bank.

Oh...and according to the previews one of these chicks is about to get evicted!!!


But of course...this reads a lot better.

Vicki, the high-strung wife, mom and businesswoman who greets every situation with a trademark “Woo Hoo!,” is patching her marriage back together after throwing her husband, Donn, “under the bus” last season by telling the world he doesn’t meet any of her needs. Meanwhile, Gretchen, the sexually inappropriate not-actually-a-housewife housewife who joined the cast last year, is doing damage control after racy pictures of her surfaced on the Internet. In a meta turn, she’s also getting over the death of her fiance, Jeff, by taking up with Slade, a muscled lothario and sometime cast member who’s already “bagged” two previous housewives.

In what is perhaps the most realistic subplot to develop on any of the “Housewife” installments, the economic meltdown has come to Coto de Caza, the gated community where the show is filmed. For years, viewers (or at least this viewer) have marveled at how people who don’t seem terribly bright or even financially shrewd amassed gobs of money. The answer, it appears, is they piggybacked on the rocketing real estate market and, now that it’s crashed and burned, their eyes have the panicked look of prairie animals before a tornado.

Jeana, the divorced former Playmate, is taking financial advice from her teenage son and considering putting her 9,000 square-foot “dream house” on the market. The marriage of Tamra and Simon, a transactional relationship based on the age-old exchange of money for beauty (the pair seem to have nothing in common) is showing strains now that the dollars are in decline. Future episodes even hint at — gasp! — a foreclosure.

Risking your dignity for reality show stardom doesn’t seem to pay enough to ride out the recession in style.



SO WHADDYA THINK? WORTH THE WATCH OR NO?

OK, lemme guess the show features women from Newport Beach right?! I live in OC and man we have some mega cunts down there

You aint kiddin'. All you need is blonde hair, big fake boobs and a mouth like a Hoover and you are in the money!!!! Unless you were born to one of them wealthy Irish/Italian families.

I've never watched an entire season, cuz Vicki's popping eyes distract me. BUT, I think Gretchen is genuinely sweet and Tamra and Vicki hated her from the beginning cuz she was cute and getting Ol' Papa's money. I was thru when Tamra plotted to get her drunk, who does that???

Tamra is a straight up bitch and I can't wait to see if she loses her house. Her husband's right, she has no class. I dunno about Jeanna, her money is sho nuf lo and I don't think she'll be able to sell that house in this market, but I like her low self-esteem having ass. Now, I wanna see how Laurie and George are doing in this economy cuz she made no bones about the fact that he was the Captain to her Ho.

I don't know nuthin' bout the new chicks but the one needing the facelift's boobs look painful.

Speaking of housewives . . . I'm watching New York Undercover right now and they have Xscape singing All this Love. Look at Kandi an nem. She pretty much looks the same. TIny actually sounds awright.

From Desireenevermind's post:





As far as Tamara, I have absolutely no sympathy for her whatsoever. She's mean, shrewd, insecure, jealous and malicious and she brought on her own Karma. She is so disturbed by Gretchen's looks, it's eating away at her soul.


I also have no sorrow for Jeana. She brought her situation on herself. I bet she never thought she would see a rainy day, and yet saw others with less than what she had, as below her. It's amazing that some people think that just because they are rich/wealthly, that all that wealth could never be taken away.

that's what happens when you get boobs that are too big for your frame and there is not enough skin. you get that stretched out and toilet plunger look. She (Lynn with the two teen daughters and bracelet bidness) had her face lift already and she looks weird to me. Kind of like a puppet.

I agree Tamara has no class but I love watching her stir up drama. You would think she and Gretchen would get along cuz they are kind of alike but I guess they are reflecting the ugly in one another.

and WTF...Jeanna aint got no money but she sho nuff stuffing her face. She was on her way to slim and now she big again.

p.s. Slade is nasty!

And don't get me started on her bratty ass, self-indulgent, entitled offspring who treat her like crap.

DesireeNevermind said:

I know. Did you see the way her sons treated her last season? Spoiled ass brats. They embarassed her in front of their friends, and treated her like garbage.I wonder how they treated her when she was served an eviction notice?

SCNDLS said:

Vicki looks like a freaking ostrich. She is hideous and so is her facial skin. She comes off as very jealous and insecure, and somehow with all her money, it still didn't make her happy. For some reason I don't think her marriage will last. She's too money hungry, but her daughter seems to be very compassionate and not materialistic like her mother.

I don't like Tamara at all. She seems like a psycho and very disturbed. Her husband looks totally disgusted and frustrated with her, because now he is seeing it was all about the money he made. Her hair looks a complete wreck, and this is a woman who supposedly is fussy with her looks. She is obsessively jealous of Gretchen, because Gretchen is young and pretty. Tamara is very insecure around Gretchen. That is why she insults Gretchen constantly, because it is the only way it makes Tamara's ego feel secure.

Tamra is so obvious with her insecurities and she's a horrible mother IMO.

DesireeNevermind said:

But I actually think Gretchen is really sweet and is responding to Tamra coming for her all the time. Didn't slade get arrested for nonpayment of child support??? AND his house was foreclosed on too.

SCNDLS said:

I agree. She didn't come from a wealthy family, and apparently doesn't know how to act when her lifestyle went up a few notches. Her own jealousy and hatred is eating away at her soul.

2elijah said:

Vicki ain't cute at ALL and treats her husband like shit. I really don't know how that goofy broad is a successful businesswoman. I loved it when her son clowned her for popping up at his college and he made her cry. That was funny as hell.

2elijah said:

You can tell, didn't she say she came from a trailer park? Wasn't she trynna find her daddy or something last season?

SCNDLS said:

I probably missed that episode, but yeah she's another one who gets very jealous when new females enter her "circle of friends". Neither she or Tamara hide their insecurities too well. It seems Laurie and Gretchen are the coolest ones.

SCNDLS said:

Oh she found her Dad alright and cried alligator tears that never seem to fall from her eyes. I've never seen anyone pretend to cry, yet you see no tears. All for the cameras I guess.

I think that was the first season. She showed up in Denver or wherever he goes to school. Him and his friends were sitting around watching a football game and she proceeded to get drunk with his friends while screaming that annoying ass "Whoooo hoooo!" And he broke her ass down and wasn't apologetic about putting her ass in check. I loved it!

I loved Laurie she was mad sweet, even tho her kids weren't about shit either. Most of these kids are lil monsters that need a foot deep in the ass. Remember, how Laurie's daughter said she was jealous when George bought her that bad ass Benz.

2elijah said:

That heffa crazy and ya'll need to spell her name right, it's Tamra.

SCNDLS said:

I actually missed the first season. I only got into it, during the last two seasons. I also can't stand that stupid "Whoo Hoo" she does. I used to say that but she ruined it for me after hearing her say it...she annoys me with that... sounding like a drunk rooster and sh*t.

Won't make a difference, she's still crazy.

Coto de Caza

2elijah said:

You know why I'm making the distinction.

Why would anyone watch this stuff?

How bad does your life have to be that you need to watch this tripe to feel better about yourself?

RodeoSchro said:

I doubt people watch it to feel better about themselves. I watch it for the "laughs" . Not to mention how ridiculous they all are for putting their personal lives on display. Oh by the way, my life is wonderful.

RodeoSchro said:

Talk about a sweeping generalization. Just cuz YOU wouldn't watch it doesn't mean it's okay or accurate to make assumptions about those that do.

SCNDLS said:

I came to that conclusion - not generalization - after reading what you all wrote about this show.

RodeoSchro said:

So based on what we said about these women you concluded that we MUST be watching it to feel better about our own lives??? Uh, huh, I see.
You asked the question "How bad does your life have to be that you need to watch this tripe to feel better about yourself?" Isn't that an assumption/generalization that watching this show means there's something wrong with our lives? You're entitled to your opinion about the show, but assuming we're lacking for tuning in for some mindless fun is kinda crazy.

SCNDLS said:

SCNDLS..there's nothing about those women's lives that would affect your life or mine or take anything away from it, that's why I find the show hilarious. I look forward to seeing this week's episode so I can watch them make fools of themselves.....again.

That's like saying that every man that watches football secretly enjoys watching big, muscular men, jump on each other in a pseudo-sexual way.
