6 Burning Questions I Have After Watching Real Housewives of Orange County

6 Burning Questions I Have After Watching Real Housewives of Orange County

Well guys, last night there was a new episode of Bravo’s very own The Real Housewives of Orange County and this episode really provided me with some burning questions. I had a hard time even narrowing it down to six! This episode was entitled “Scream Therapy” which I am assuming is a play on words, but I am clueless on this one. Anyone want to help me out with that? Anyway, let me fill you in one what these lovely ladies were up to before we delve into my questions.

This week’s episode of the beloved Bravo series The Real Housewives of Orange County had me pissed off within the first 30 seconds. Not so much at Andy Cohen or the series in general, just one housewife in pariticular who I want to punch in the face. More »

Somehow there’s a disconnect between Real Housewives daughters like Pandora Sabo saying, “I wouldn’t sign up for my own reality show” and doing a Glamour photo shoot. More »

Valuable Life Advice From The  Real Housewives Of Orange Country

Rather than trying to tell you what Gretchen said to Vicki about Tamra‘s relationship with Heather, I thought I would focus on the more important things. Like the extremely valuable advice I learned from last night’s episode. More »

‘Real Housewives of Orange County’ Season 6 Episode 2 Recap

'Real Housewives of Orange County' Season 6 Episode 2 Recap

Real Housewives of Orange County‘s second episode premiered last night. In this lesson, we learned many things: lesbian flirting is fine if one of you is straight, flirting with a hot guy while married is fine if he’s an “old friend,” friendship is always a competition, especially if there are kids involved, and that the man is the provider and the woman is the nurturer. Check out my picks of the best scenes from last night. More »

Gallery: 'Real Housewives of Orange County' Episode 1 Recap

Real Housewives of Orange County season 6 (!) premiered last night. After hearing so much about the upcoming season, I was getting excited. After watching the first episode, however, I felt like something or someone was missing. Maybe I just missed seeing a brunette in the mix. More »

Get Caught Up with the 'Real Housewives of Orange County'

The first ladies of Bravo are back! Real Housewives of Orange County is back for its sixth season and premieres this Sunday, March 6. There have been more changes and cast member switches in this city than any other, partly because it is the oldest and original Real Housewives series. For one, there is only one original cast member left on the show: Vicki Gunvalson. Allow me to catch you up with your oldest Real Housewives friends, both present and and now off the show. More »

Poll: Which NY Housewife Is On The Way Out?

Poll: Which NY Housewife Is On The Way Out?

The addition of two new housewives on Real Housewives of New York City means that the cast is reaching the dangerously high level of eight women. That’s just too much crazy for one show to contain (not to mention the fact that they’ll have to get bigger couches for their reunion show). So, we think that the new cast additions mean at least one — if not more — rich housewife is on the way out.

Attrition is nothing new… More »

Vicki and Simon Compete For The Title Of Worst Person Ever

Vicki and Simon Compete For The Title Of Worst Person Ever

Happy Friday! How did you all feel about last night’s episode of Real Housewives of Orange County?I haven’t seen the full episode yet because I’ve been moving to a different state (excuses, I know) so I don’t have the full magnitude of last night’s shitshow, but I did catch this clip of Vicki and Simon fighting over who has messed up Simon’s marriage more.

Vicki says that a few months ago, Tamra confided some marital problems to her, and now Simon… More »

This recap is hella late. Please accept this imaginary gift of a seven-carrot diamond necklace. Now, cover up your ass before God sees you! To speed things up, since we are due for a date with the ladies of OC tomorrow night, I thought I’d write a few love notes to them based on some trifling things I saw in the last episode.

Dear Lynne,
Let’s start with you. Despite the fact that… More »

Real Talk Abounds on “Real Housewives of Orange County”

Real Talk Abounds on "Real Housewives of Orange County"

Vicki must have the production team editors on her payroll because once again, she comes off as the most likable on this week’s show. It’s opposite season! Whether or not their vow renewal ceremony was conjured up by producers, it was obviously very genuine emotion on Donn’s part. And would any of you turn down a free trip to Turks and Caicos, with what look like the stock of an entire BevMo wine department chilling in the room? Yeah, didn’t… More »

New Year's Resolutions for Real Housewives

Happy New Year, honies! I’m going to take the day off tomorrow to spend the day in quiet prayer and reflection and by that, I mean, I mean stuff myself full of food and wine in Napa with a gentleman caller. My New Year’s resolution is to get a song I’ve been working on, “Regrets Only” turned into a dance hit. Now I need to find a working singer songwriter to befriend!

A few people I think could use some… More »

Real Househusbands of Orange County Overstay Their Welcome

Real Househusbands of Orange County Overstay Their Welcome

Last week, an article was printed by the Associated Press about how this season of Real Housewives of Orange County was showing the ladies having money issues. The rest of us collectively said: DUHHHH. And that’s all I have to say about that.

On to my Very Important Thoughts on last week’s episode. At this point, we all know that Simon and Jim went on the “girl’s trip” to Florida keep their little ladies Tamra and Alexis in line. Frank… More »

Real Housewives of Orange County Go On Vacation

Real Housewives of Orange County Go On Vacation

Because their lives are so rough, the ladies of Real Housewives of Orange County are going on their Bravo-sponsored vacation to Florida. Rather than eat Cuban food and marvel at some beautiful old school Art Deco buildings, the girls are going to hang out in a swamp as if they were on the opening credits of CSI and hang out in some cheesy bar that no doubt is in the lobby of a W hotel. I am feeling hella snobby… More »

Caption This: Look Who Showed Up To Vicki Gunvalson's Book Signing

Newly appointed Real Housewives of Orange County queen bee Vicki Gunvalson has just released her memoir, More Than a Housewife and threw herself a party at Los Angeles’s The Abbey to celebrate.

Reader Lisa Lovelace went to the shindig and was kind enough to send me the following amazing photo. Check out this unbelievable lineup of some of Bravo’s most bad-ass leading ladies, including a frazzled-looking Jackie Warner. My only question: where was Chad Rogers? He would’ve fit right in… More »

Real Housewives of Orange County Have A Boys Night Out

Real Housewives of Orange County Have A Boys Night Out

Oh, honeys. So much to parse from this episode! For one, this episode of Real Housewives of Orange County was not about the ladies, but truly about the husbands: from Frank Curtin dropping off his “babies” to get a little plastic surgery to Gretchen scoring higher points on her motorcycle licensing exam than Slade, it was all about the men.

Of all the husbands, Don once again is the most reasonable. Vicki has either spent some time in the therapists’ chair… More »

Ryan Vieth and Simon Barney Have Facebook Drama On Tonight’s “Real Housewives of Orange County”

Ryan Vieth and Simon Barney Have Facebook Drama On Tonight's "Real Housewives of Orange County"

They’re ba-ack. After taking a week off along with Top Chef, the Real Housewives of Orange County are returning tonight to give us more Tuscan architecture porn.

On tonight’s episode, Vicki has a “Southern California” barbecue (because no one else in the country has cook-outs in the summer, apparently) to hook her daughter Brianna up with a son of one of her insurance colleagues and to make Tamra cry. Actually, the latter is probably producer-inflicted pain. See, Vicki invited Simon… More »
