The REAL Housewifes of Orange County

I didnt understand why jeanna needed to make the PSA announcement at the end about what the other housewives thought of Jeff and Gretchen's relationship...I didnt think that was necessary she could have just mentioned he passed away and left it at that. Did anyone else think that was weird?

I think it was something that was scripted for her to say. From the way she looked & sounded that is what I thought.

Even if it wasn't, I don't think it was weird. Jeff & Gretchen relationship wasn't always looked down upon, and you don't want to leave it like that knowing the guy passed away.

I agree with Vicki (not Tamra) about going to see Gretchen's motorcycle. Gretchen does think it's all about her, and if I wasn't a fan of Gretchen I wouldn't have gone to see the bike. If you noticed Vicki also took a jab at Tamra, b/c she said something about she doesn't know anyone in their right mind who'd want a Harley at her age.

Vicky is such a hypocrite. She's a total attention w____. Also, she's clueless about Harleys...a lot of people who have them are older than the "Housewives."

But aren't they usually men? I don't know any women who own Harleys (not counting those who's husbands own one).

Honestly, everyone is a hypocrite. Vicki is not more of one that anyone else. If someone is a hypocrite, it's Tamra. At least Vicki showed she could care less about Gretchen and the Harley. Tamra went up there like she was so thrilled for her and then the second she left was all about trash-talking Gretchen.

EXACTLY. Vicki is icky up front. Tamra smiles in her face and goes, "OMG Gretchen how AWESOME!!!"

Seriously?

Hmmm...maybe it's just because I'm from Milwaukee and Harley riders sort of flock to our city for reunions, anniversaries, museum events, concerts, etc., but I never really thought twice about seeing a woman with a Harley.

I agree about Slade and Jo. They aren't even together, and they don't live on the "OC" anymore. They just need to leave already.

Yes!

Yeah, I haven't seen women on the bikes, alone. I mean we have a big Harley store here and we have a lot of people that ride but i've only ever seen men. The women are usually passengers.

I know women with their own Harley. Their husbands have one, and they have one. A lot of people here like to go riding on sunny weekends, and for that, it's more comfortable I guess to have your own, full-sized seat.

Oh, I happen to like Gretchen and think she's pretty sincere about her relationship with Jeff. I thought Jeana's message at the end was nice, because she's really the only person who was nice to Gretchen all season and gave her the benefit of the doubt. By contrast, toward the end of the season, practically everything that Vicki said I thought was mean-spirited or obnoxious. The edit she got this season made her seem really unbearable.
