Airing tonight. It will be interesting to see how they re-worked the show.

BetteDavisEyes · #2 09-06-2011, 12:35 AM

Just finished watching it & I have a few thoughts. First, LOVED the episode. Even more, I LOVE Adrienne's shoe closet. I'm suffering a serious case of shoe envy towards Adrienne & Lisa right now. Lol!

Taylor is irritating. I didn't care much for her last season and I still don't. I do feel bad for her situation but her personality rubs me the wrong way. She's money obsessed, IMO. I was surprised BRAVO kept in the scenes with her discussing her failing marriage. I thought they were editing this part of the show.

I did agree that Ken was condescending & insulting when he commented that going to therapy would make him feel weak. I agree that if people are trying to make things work, therapy is a very good option and has NOTHING to do with weakness. That being said, I think Kyle needs to learn to butt out & let Taylor handle herself. She's a big girl & doesn't need Kyle to be her pitbull.

For once, Kim & Camille stayed out of the drama.

(For now)

I foresee the editing making Lisa the villain here since it seems she will be feuding with Taylor all season as well as with Kyle since Taylor & Kyle are BFF's now.

It's a shame b/c I think Lisa is very perceptive when it comes to Taylor but Kyle doesn't see it.

Lastly, the previews of Brandi Glanville are NOT promising. They're making her come across as a psycho bitch right from the start. LOL! This should be fun.

Yeah, I watched it today, too. I love that they started it off with the ladies reacting to Russell's suicide. Very heartfelt. And, yeah, I feel you on the shoe thing, because the ones Lisa had on with the rocks around the ankle were so awesome. And, was it just me, or did Adrienne seem hoarse throughout this episode ... And she's had MORE plastic surgery that has her looking like "Madam" from Solid Gold back in the day.

I didn't particularly care for Taylor, either ... but, obsessed with money? Hmm ... I never really picked up on that, but she does wimper to Kyle a lot, and is absolutely scared crapless by Lisa.

I felt like Taylor over-reacted to Ken, as he was only saying how it would make HIM feel, not that everyone else should feel that way. I just wish Taylor would stand on her own two feet and stop expecting Kyle to speak up for her. But considering everything Taylor has gone (is going) through, I can't help but expect her to be overly sensitive and defensive about everything and everybody.

Yeah, I picked up on that, too. It's hard for me to see Lisa as some kind of villain. She'll call a spade a spade in a heartbeat, and she is NO FOOL when it comes to other people's intentions.

Now, who the hell is this Brandi Glanville?? Because, judging by previews, this woman's presence causes these women to turn into Housewives of Atlanta. Time to google her, I guess ... LOLOL!!!

Saw her on Good Morning America and she DEFINITELY looked like she had more work done. YIKES!

I say obsessed with money because prior to Russell's suicide, in articles I would read and interviews she would give, she would always bring up how Lisa & the other ladies have more money than her. In fact, prior to Russell's suicide, her new opening line during the opening credits was something to the effect of how now that she finally lives in the 90210, nothing is going to take that away from her. Other clips from the season (again, prior to the suicide & editing), she made various comments (mainly to Kyle) about money. And yes, I think she is scared AND intimidated by Lisa.

Agreed! Lisa was the only one (and still is for some strange reason) that picked up on the fact that Camille went after Kyle only AFTER Taylor went to talk to her in Vegas and Taylor was the one bringing up the insecure comment. Lisa brought that up to Kyle before but Kyle doesn't want to listen.

Brandi Glanville is the ex-wife of Eddie Cibrian. It made headlines when he was caught cheating on her with LeAnn Rimes while filming some made for TV movie while she was also still married to that dancer guy. Other than this, I don't know why else she would be famous. And I completely agree about her turning them into the RHOA. God, I hope not! Lol!

Benzgirl · #5 09-06-2011, 02:19 PM

Did anyone else notice that Camille looked really good last night. Didn't have the surprised-eyes that she did last season.

Agree on the above comments of Taylor. While I feel very sad for her and her daughter, she is very manipulative and I still think she lies to make herself look better.

BetteDavisEyes · #6 09-06-2011, 08:35 PM

Here's something else I forgot to comment about.

Jackpot is cute but I'm sorry. Jackpot does NOT hold a candle to Giggy. LOL!

ETA: I too found it rude/disrespectful (and gross) that Ken let Giggy drink out of Adrienne's $500 stemware. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? Ewww!

As for Camille, she probably didn't get her Botox or injections or whatever near her eyes so she definitely looked better. She looked softer (if that makes any sense).

LMAO!! I'm a fan of BOTH Jackpot and Giggy. I'd hug both of them equally as much. And while I adore Giggy, I thought it was not only rude to let him drink out of the champagne glass, but I found it even more lewd that Ken would go back and take a sip out of the same glass. I mean, ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

ellebud · #8 09-06-2011, 09:19 PM

Taylor didn't live in BH. I believe that her home is in the Palisades. I like Lisa. I may not agree with the Vanderpumps regarding therapy, but they weren't disrespectful. Ken just said that HE thought it was a weakness...not YOU are weak.

But I am team Jackpot....he is adorable.

Not all the ladies live in Beverly Hills. Lisa & Adrienne actually live in Beverly Park (a ritzier area than Beverly Hills & Bel Aire). Camille lives in Malibu. Taylor lives in Pacific Palisades. Kyle lived in Bel Aire but as shown on the show, they put that house on the market. No word on where they're moving to yet. Kim might be the only that actually lives in Beverly Hills.

TEAM GIGGY!!! LOL!

ETA: Just pathetic. Despite promising to not air footage of Russell, BRAVO will air their marriage counseling sessions. Seriously?!?

ellebud · #10 09-07-2011, 03:13 AM

Actually, the house that Kim rented was waaay out, past Calabasas. At least that's where she rented last year. Note: Bel Air is not a separate city. When you send mail there it is sent to Los Angeles. No one writes "Bel Air" unless they are very pretentious The developers of Beverly Park got the "Beverly Hills, California" as part of the development. It is crazy expensive. .But we are all in agreement: Letting your dog drink out of your glass and then drinking...disgusting.

The Bravo website has all of the ladies "Cribs". Adrienne's home is 19,000 square feet.

...and Lisa's bedroom is over 2000 square feet.

... for $19 million. God, I'd love to just have a CORNER of that crib! Unlike most "Real Housewives", who usually end up selling their homes due to bankruptcy

, the Vanderpumps are NOT frauds in the slightest.

Benzgirl · #15 09-09-2011, 10:22 AM

Interesting article:

"The late wife of Russell Armstrong, who tragically committed suicide on August 15, has reportedly signed a deal to write a book about domestic abuse."

Also, Taylor apparently ran up $90,000 on his AMEX card in June.
