Admit it...The Real Housewives of Orange County

[YeahWhatever]

I don't know why I watch this show. I have this weird fascination with what could possibly be interesting about the area and the people in it. I grew up right outside Coto, and I'm familiar with the area. And I have to say that it's not as classy as it appears on TV. I've been to a lot of those places, and they're usually in crappy strip malls.

Anyway, I'm kinda happy yet sad that there's no Jo and Slade this season. At least not regularly. My cousin has ties to their circle. She told me Slade's house got foreclosed. Ha!

Jeanna freakin' bugs me. And her 2 boys are nasty kids. Kara is decent enough.

Lauri intrigues me because of her overdone plastic surgery. Ashley's a rotten child. George likes showing off his wealth on TV -- like everyone else I guess.

Vicki's screaming. Ahhh! I'm surprised her kids are so normal.

Not sure about new wife Tamra. Her strict husband is kinda cute though.

My favorite housewife is Tammy. She's the most normal and down to earth. And her kids are entertaining. Megan is my favorite person on the show. I feel bad that their perv-dad died and left them nothing.

I hate that I love this show.

I love this show too and I'm not sure why. It's kind of a guilty pleasure show. I missed the beginning, did they say how Lou (Tammy's ex, Megan's dad) died? That was kind of shocking.

 

[MoMo]

YEa, this show has got its hold on me too... and i hate myself for it lol
But yea, just one of my many guilty pleasures (along with "gimme more"... but shhhh that information doesn't leave this thread!!)

Lou died of a heart attack right in front of Megan. His Thai mail order wife ran across the street to get help, leaving him to die. Tammy didn't believe Megan when she called and told her that Lou was dying because "she cries wolf a lot."

that sounds wrong but its so true about the mail order bride. i remember one scene where it showed the dad and all his friends all had these thai mail order brides.

tammi is my favorite too. she's very normal.

i'm glad slade and jo r gone they're like heidi and spencer. but they're worse cuz their told old for that dumb dramatic shit they try to pull

jeana and the lauri are tied for most despicable. jeana is like some republican jesus freak. (its downplayed on the show) i like her son colton. shane is a douche and i think a closeted homo. the daughter is cute but kinda annoying.

i think i hate lauri most of all. she's like dina lohan but with worse plastic surgery. her son is kinda troubled but i feel like he got a pretty raw deal. the crimes he did were kinda mild for the extreme punishment he got. lauri is a total gold digger

i actually don't mind vicki. she's controlling and emotional but i do think she works hard and she means well. it was awful how her son treated her last season.

Isn't the Thai wife thing creepy? A whole bunch of middle aged white men importing women for marriage, who don't even really speak English. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just one, but the fact that they all did it together is weird. Like they're all buying puppies or something.

You're so right about Jo and Slade being the next Speidi. She even has a singing career like Heidi too! I heard that they pitched a spinoff show to Bravo, but it got declined, and that's why they're not here this season. Plus, Jo's in LA, so...

I don't think Lauri is that bad. She's not perfect, but there's something endearing about her (and it's not her face). She is like the Dina Lohan -- more of a friend than a mother. I think it's apparent that she married George for money, but I think Geroge likes having that trophy wife, so it all works out for the both of them.

Now Jeanna -- I think she's too into showing off her money. And she lets her sons get away with a lot. I also think Shane is in the closet, it's pretty obvious. Colton was a good kid when the show started, but he calls people "faggot" and "gay" and he means it so offensively. He's turning into Shane. Haha, you're right about Kara. She's cute but annoying. Like she tries too hard to come across as the good girl, but bad girl.

I don't know why I don't mind Vicki either. She at least works hard to earn her money and she actually parents her children (outside of doing keg-stands with her underaged son's friends). I want another "Why did you send a faaaamilllyyyy vaaaaannn!?!?" moment.

I loved it when she said that!!! I will miss Slade though..He was great eye candy I told myself I wasnt going to watch this season but I may be hooked again already.

i think youre kinda right about lauri. there is an endearing part to her. i feel like she was a naive girl who fell for jerks who kncocked her up and left. now i think she just wants security. i don't blame her for that. but i still dont think she did right by her son. i'm stickin to that.
i can forgive colton for his bad language. he seems like a really sweet kid especially when he's with his sister. shane's acting out makes him bad. he seems like he wants to be close to his brother. jeana seems like she'd rather the boys be aggressive than than sensitive than for shane to be gay, if that makes sense

I hate myself for being addicted to this show-It' just fascinating seeing how fucked up money can make some people. I think all these women are a bit on the self-centered side, but I can't help getting into all the drama. I'm thrilled that Jo left! She is so conceited, and I don't know why people are telling her she can sing, when she makes my ears bleed. I understand her ditching Slade... I had a boyfriend just like him..Completely controlling and smothering. (too bad tho, cuz he is very handsome) I like Lauri, cuz she actually came from pretty low on the money scale and has pulled herself up. Too bad she's a little more interested in herself and her happiness, rather than her kids.
And no matter what anyone says about Shane, he boy is HOT!

 

[YeahWhatever]

Brianna is so funny. She's so unlike her mom, Vicki, which is a good thing.

Does Lauri know that her youngest daughter Sophie is only 9 or 10 years old? Yeah, she's good now, but she hasn't even hit puberty yet.

I thought Tamra was boring at first, but she's not so bad. Her son Ryan is a different story.

Kara is a smart girl, but she's not a very good actress at all, "ya know?"

What's up with bringing in a new housewife? I hate when women verbally consider themselves "cougars" or "MILFs" (ahem - Vicki), so i automatically hate her.

And last but not least (and why I had to revive this thread) -- Tammy/Megan's awkward yacht party. Not so much the party itself, but the hot guys there. That one guy who apologized to Tammy for the cake-fight was hot! I wouldn't mind having a cake-fight with him

Breanna was so funny at dinner with her bro. i had no idea. most of the kids don't have much personality. that sex till marriage thing is just ridiculous.

I hate how Lauri talks about her kids. she acts like her constantly dating shitty men and not acting her age has nothing to do with their behavior. sophie's only good now cuz she's young and lauri finally grew up and acted like a parent with her.

i like tamra and her husband showed a different side when he got emotional talking about tamra and ryan.

i thought kara's acting wasn't bad. i like kara the most. and she's gorgeous.

that cougar is busted.

that cougar is busted.

How about Breanna and Colby at Jiu-Jitsu? Her talking about saving sex until marriage, and doing non-sex activties over shots of her and Colby in the missionary position with her legs in the air. You can't write that shit.

I heard the "cougar" (her name is Quinn?) is the replacement for Tammy, which makes me sad because I like Tammy the best, and because Quinn looks like a twat.

It makes sense though, because at the end of the episode, Tammy said that Megan's behavior at the party made her think about her family, and how Megan needs to grieve the death of her father privately, without cameras, and that she'd be there for her. It makes me respect Tammy for not being a camera whore. I hope she comes back in the future.
