I think I'm the only person out there that likes Alexis. Sure, she's spoiled (like every woman on this show), but I think she actually is pretty sharp. And I think she has a good attitude toward family, friends and spirituality. I admire that she knows who she is and what she believes, and that she doesn't really waver from it. And I think she usually acts far more classy than the other housewives.

No, you're not alone. I like Alexis, too (... up to a point, at least). I like her traditional views on family, but her spiritual ideals seem more "religious" in my opinion than actually spiritual, and seem to apply only to her home life, yet has not nearly as much bearing on her social situations. But I don't want to sound judgemental, as this apparently has kept her grounded in her familial role as a mother. I love, however, her sense of style. She's a very snazzy dresser MOST of the time, and she seems to love the role of wife and mother, so she doesn't get involved with some of the other petty things that go on.

I am a little annoyed, though, that when she smiles, it's never a really full one. It's as if she can't smile very hard. Botox maybe?

I haven't watched an entire episode yet this season but really noticed how much older Tamra looks. She has always looked "hard", but this year she looks beat to hell even with the frozen forehead.

Agreed! It's like she's trying desperately to hold on to her self-imposed title of Hottest Housewife in OC but hasn't yet realized that there are far more gorgeous women around both on and off the show. Her face looks like hell when they do close-ups and her hair is just nasty. Ick!

I think she'd be better off if she strived to be the best mom on the show, because she's definitely not the hottest. She's attractive, but not quite as much as she thinks. Have we even seen her kids this season? I also read somewhere that the house she is playing off as hers is really the new guy's house. Maybe she needs to get her life in order.

My guess is that Simon has put a kabosh on the kids being on the show. From what I remember from RHONJ and Dina, both parents need to agree that kids under 18 can be on the show, and Dina's ex wouldn't allow Lexi to come back on Season 2.

OMG!! L ... M ... F ... A ... O!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I noticed that, too. I kept wondering if it was just me, or was she just not as pretty as I thought she was. It looks like she has a perpetual frown on her face at all times. And, if all else fails, I think she's going to hook-up with her Brazilian fitness instructor. She's flirting waaaayyyy too much.

Actually all these ladies have enough silicone/botox/restilene to float a battleship.

I think Peggy looks horrible. Not only is her face expressionless, the juviderm around her mouth makes her face look flat.

FWIW, I'm proud of my forehead lines.

Benzgirl · #**295** 04-03-2011, 10:55 AM

Yep, flat face:

And she claims that the only work she has had done are breast implants and fillers.

Her eyebrows are so high, I'm afraid they're gonna bounce off. And, is it just me, or does Peggy and Alexis seem to have the exact same voice. I can't tell who's talking at all between the two of them if I'm not looking at the television.

Benzgirl · #**297** 04-16-2011, 09:54 PM

Yep. This show has officially jumped the shark.

BetteDavisEyes · #**298** 05-09-2011, 09:22 PM

I've stopped watching this show. I just can't take anymore of Tamra's bitchiness & Vicki's attitude. I also don't care for this new housewife Peggy either. Finally, Alexis sobbing in the bathroom b/c she can't enjoy herself at the dinner party without her husband made me want to throw my shoe at the TV. She's so damn stupid!

I miss Jeanna & Lauri.

What's difficult for me is watching how Slade has absolutely NO shame in telling the world that he's penniless, as he acts as Gretchen's 'Yes boy'. The audacity of him to compare Gretchen to Jo is just tasteless, especially when he's not in ANY position to call anyone lazy when he is so gladly putting himself in position to profit nicely from Gretchen's success. Watching that entire display is nauseating to say the least. UGH!

Benzgirl · #**300** 05-14-2011, 03:36 PM

Very disappointed with this season. Tamra has become more obnoxious and more like trailor trash. Vicki has become louder and more shallow. Gretchen has too many "lines" going and I can't keep track of what she is hawking from day-to-day. Peggy is a manipulative witch. Jesus Barbie has no back-bone. The only significant other that I can stand is Donn, and he is leaving!
