I know. I don't understand why he stays with her. From what I've seen, I'd have run for the hills a long time ago!

ratings are up 36% from last season. so i guess in the short term presenting a trashier season is working for them. we will see long term...

I was afraid of that. The ratings for the trashy Atlanta season made me fear for any untrashy seasons in any other locales. That's OK... if they keep the trash on the show, I can just go elsewhere. There's enough trashy TV on VH1 if I get the urge. :-)

I finally watched my tivo of this week's show. Does anyone else think that Lynn's house looks really spare--like she might not live there--on the few occasions we see her house? I am not a fan of her accessories, either. And I noticed that, for someone who is obsessed with her youth, her lower arms are very....old looking. Loose skin, toneless, etc.

Tamra's pool party was stupid, especially since it meant we had to see Ryan and his nuggets again. Gretchen's poor dogs did not seem to be enjoying themselves in that pool, either. Their trip to Fred Segal was super lame.

Tish, I noticed that there doesn't appear to be a lot of furniture in Lynne's house. The episode where she left her daughters in the house and left for the birthday party, it seemed to me the outside looked like it might have been an apartment complex or a townhouse. Have they ever shown a picture of what her house looks like from the outside?

I agree with you lexie,for someone whose husband is a builder I think her house doesn't look all that great! I was wondering if that's her real house or just one their using for the show, because they are always only in the kitchen...

does Lynn have the tanning booth in her house? Does that count as furniture?

ok,I don't have time to post too often(aren't you all glad? LOL But I AM watching regularly. I still like Vicki even if she is too loud(although I may change my mind after the previews for this week.) Tamra,I dunno,she is really starting to lose any "classy" Image she ever had.IMO..Lynne,<100>,Can't stand her,she rates right up there with Sheree from Atlanta.I hope the police have rounded up her future alcoholic and all her friends and gave them a dose of REAL reality.Gretchen,well..I don't dislike her as much,I really just feel like she is very gullible and naive,and that she is starting to really pay more attention to jeana and vicki,which i think is a good idea. Lynne can spout off all she wants about money not being everything,But she of all people should realize what its like to have children and not be prepared(financially that is) for the unthinkable. True ,Gretchen doesn't have kids,but Lynne talked like NOONE should even think of it. Personally speaking,Last March,my 36 yr old husband had a massive stroke and We have 2 daughters,ages 11 and 12.He had NO disability coverage,no backup plan whatsoever,and God forbid he had passed,I don't know what would have become of us.True at the MOMENT money wasn't important,but it sure was after the fact.<100>. This is the only episode that ever truly upset me,usually its just fun tv. But that woman hit a nerve!!

Lori, I think what Lynne was trying to say, as politely as she could, was that it was not Vikki's and Jeanna's place to be questioning Gretchen about the finances. And to an extent I agree with her. If Gretchen, Vikki and Jeanna were good friends, I would have no problem with it. But Vikki obviously does not like Gretchen and, therefore, she really should have not interfered in Gretchen's business regarding the finances and I think that is what got Lynne puffed up like a bullfrog.

Lynn and her family could be in a rental. I saw a marathon yesterday and saw the show where she was first introduced. Gretchen said they wanted her to find a piece of property to build on. Nothing more was said that I recall.

From what I read about Lynn in the OC Register, she was living in Laguna Beach and has since moved to Capistrano Beach which is just a little south but also a very nice area. Also, they said in the article that her older daughter, Raquel, appeared in the reality show, Laguna Beach but I think she just had a very small part in that. She was not one of the main characters.

I really enjoy Jeana and Gretchen. I hope that Gretchen gets to know Jeana more. The rest of them should be ashamed. Lynn will get into the swing of things in a fast way!!

Watching the way Jeana's sons treated her in tonight's episode was just painful.

Hate vicki but she was right when she was saying that jeanna's boys deserved a smack across the face.

Ugh ~ I honestly didn't think it could get any uglier but it did. Is there going to be anything this season that isn't set up to bring out the worst in all of them?

What a shame that Jenna has allowed her sons to be so disrespectful. For once I totally agreed with Vicki.

Kappy I feel the same way!!
Very uncomfortable show last night all around. I actually missed the Vicki in the bar scene when I got up to go to the kitchen I think I am glad.

Awww see how nice Tamra became after everyone told her she was the hottest?

Panda, the bar scene was no big deal. It turned out the guy at the bar was the husband of one of her Chicago friends that she was having dinner with in the restaurant.

Yeah, but she was all over the friend of the friend, or the friend's husbands, or whatever. Sitting on their laps and kissing them (even if it was just a peck). Then she gets all prude-ish about her 20 yo kids sleeping with someone. I find it ironic. And the "my people" thing. So condescending, especially to Jeana.

I thought Jeana's kids were rude to her, but she does recognize it and understands why. They are NOT too old to learn how to treat people, though, so no excuses!! (FWIW, though, I also think Shane was embarrassed to have cams around when he wasn't playing. At least, I kinda got that impression at first.)

Lynn's daughter is going to either have a car accident or get arrested for a DUI or something. They are spending far too much time on her inappropriate drinking habits. There has to be a moral to this story besides the small print at the end of each show. (And BTW, if Bravo is so against underage drinking, why are they filming her and then airing the footage? Hello?)

BTW, Tamra? You are no longer the hottest housewife. Gretchen is. And Gretchen's natural, too!

I hope that Shane's girlfriend (Shana?) took a good look at him while he was so vicious to his mother. I don't care what his reason was for his attitude (or Colton's either!), Vicki was actually right about him needing a slap across the face.

Shana looked to me like she was totally unsympathetic. It looked like she is not a fan of Jeanna, either, so I doubt she cares that Shane treated his mother so shabbily. And shabbily doesn't go nearly far enough. His behavior was just repugnant.

My favorite part, though, had to be Lynne's trip to the "spa" and the fact that her esthetician was chomping on gum the whole time. I was rolling my eyes at her lack of professionalism. But...whatever. I don't know that Lynne would inspire me to be my best, either.
