Ok, who watched. It was the kind of fake shit I've come to not only expect, but sup with a spoon as I reflect on which facial and surgical procedures I can afford in order to get Erika's smooth villainous face or Kyle's sleeker waistline.
The Break-in. Not funny, but definitely made to be funny as we watch her friends circle around in a pow-wow and congratulate Dorit for "saving" her sleeping children from the Bad Guys. So great was her fear for her children, she leaves them in the care of PK's assistant and a "security team" (which must feel so reassuring to them) in order to attend a dinner party where she is told she's the bravest woman ever who got robbed and unharmed.
As a not quite tearful Dorit begins to animatedly relive the ordeal where two armed men stole her one-of-a-kind bags and held a gun to her head, one urges the other to "just kill her", yet these young men apparently were moved enough by her plea not to take her phone that they told her to count to 40 and then go retrieve it by the gate. How terrifying!
She is petted, fussed over, and told it could never be known how much therapy she will need after the trauma.
At dinner, Kyle's pack of hounds starts barking; Dorit's actress instincts (and weird accent!) kick in as she implores Kyle to investigate, begs of her, pleads with her and everyone pets her and tells her the dog is just barking, no Bad Men showed up for dinner. Fake tears fill every dry eye in the house. Lolol the Oscar goes to none of these women, but I think Mauricio pretending to give a shit probably earns a mention.
As if this wasn't all almost too much for me to handle in one sitting, PK flies in from wherever he was and heads not straight to check on his precious children, but STRAIGHT TO THE DINNER PARTY where this florid pile of ham assures himself that his "Bubba" is ok. Bubba is ok, both of them (they both call each other Bubba? 😅), until they can't find PK's phone and the meltdown process begins again.
Now...I know in real life this would be terrifying. But they feel very fake to me and IDK, I'm just not buying what Dorit's selling.
We all know the real tragedy here was Sutton's French designer's green card issues.
Did you watch? Do you care? Will you continue to watch while your nails dry, like I've been doing for 12 seasons?

ugh i'm not a Dorit fan at all so this sounds excruciating to me. I'm not going to be eager to get back to this series, few of them I just do not care for.
Currently i'm watching the reunion of rhonj...and i'm not sure I can do another season with Teresa in it. Never been a fan, but each year she becomes more and more intolerable.

I almost never watch the reunions because of all the screeching!
Dorit and PK are detestable. I can't believe no one has thrown Dorit/Bubba off a cliff yet.
I also am not too fond of Garcelle but we'll see.

I had to watch and then I beat myself up for watching. I was actually a bit upset about what Dorit had endured and I cannot stand Dorit. I think like the other women she's phonier than Pacific Bell, but she was clearly traumatized. I have to agree with you about her children. I would not let my kids out of my site after that. Yes, I know she needed time w/the adults, so that her kids didn't witness her falling apart, but now is not the time to let them be babysat by the assistant and a security team. Now is the time for family togetherness. They could have come w/dorit and I'm sure Kyle had resources to keep them occupied.
Everyone talks about eachother behind their backs. No one is trustworthy, but they all rallied around Dorit like she was their favorite Birkin. I truly feel for anyone who endures the trauma of violent crime, but I am not buying the fake acting by the women. I think they were upset, but I think they were worried about this happening to them. Kyle already went through burglary. When you flaunt that level of materialism and wealth on national tv you are making yourself a target for robberies. Here's my Rolex. He's my rose gold Bentley. I don't impluse buy a pack of gum at the grocery store. I cannot imagine impulse buying a $4500 ring w/o giving it a 2nd thought. Here's my address and alarm code. See you soon, bad guys. UGH!
BTW-Why can't Rinna call her husband Harry. He's just HARRY. And Kyle, for G-d sake, your HUSBAND has a name and so do your Sisters. Pet peeve.
As for Erica, she's caught btwn a rock in a hard place, because she probably can't tell her real story about the financial stuff. However, I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. I think she knew that Tom was doing something illegal, but maybe didn't know the full story. She can't tell the truth, but even if she could she would never admit to anything. I have zero respect for her and all the sympathy in the world for the victims. She was making $600k per year and claims she's broke. She HAD to downgrade to a Range Rover. Oh, poor poor her!

I DID feel badly for Dorit re: the break-in, but had so many questions. There's no alarm if a door gets opened or a glass door is broken?? I could understand her excuse for not setting the inside alarm (because her kids wake up a lot and wander downstairs--maybe now she'll know that's not such a great idea!). It seemed like there was absolutely no security there. One more thing about Dorit's break-in. She kept saying that the thieves assumed no one was home. WHY?? Were they following PK's schedule? Also, to take $1,000,000 of her items, they needed to fill an entire comforter?? Seems like we're always hearing that 1 piece of jewelry is worth a few million, or 1 of her bags is worth nearly 1 million. Just seemed excessive to take that much stuff. Dorit and her PK refer to each other as "Bubba". Dorit does it with her children too. I've despised these 2 but PK's humor grew on me last season. I was hoping that Erika wouldn't come back. I'm sick of her tough-girl-mafia schtick, and seeing her spend even $1 reminds me of everything her husband did and I'm SURE she was a part of it. In one documentary she was seen saying that she's the "First Lady" of a few of her husband's companies. (Nothing was "dismissed" as far as her lawsuits. I thought that they were just being transferred to another court??) I thought that Garcelle would be gone this season. She's too boring. So, the show does drag and it's obvious that they have an outlined screenplay to touch on. Too predictable, but I still watch. As far as Teresa on NJ, ITA with momto4kiddos. Teresa irks me to no end. She isn't the hottest thing that her "mirror mirror" would find. C'mon. She's whacked. NO idea how her kids seemed to turn out okay. I still don't like or trust her "fiance". She isn't "all for family". |

BTW-I went to the Charming Charlie 70% off, going out of business sale last month and got 3 purses for $40. Come get it burglars. Yeesh!

I am #teamsutton all the way! Hopefully this courage will last all season. Calling Erika a gold digger was great!
Erika is just gross. Yeah you bet you are going to be hearing about orphans and widows forever. What a cunt.
The Dorit break-in. I'm sorry but I still don't buy it. I didn't see WWHL after but she has cameras but didn't set the alarm? They left her phone. This all sounds like a fake robbery for insurance money to pay off PKs debts.
Lisa Rinna make me want to vomit. Internet sleuths have proven she and Harry have NEVER paid for a table at the Elton John Oscar party. The foundation receipts are online.
I'm still team Kyle. I really like her and Mauricio.
Garcelle better get interesting soon because right now she's a snooze fest.

These shows used to be so fun. Oh well. That’s me. It’s like one by one a housewife turned me off enough to stop watching Atlanta: Phaedra BH: Dorit OC: Vicki when she was dating Brooks Potomac: Candace. Honorable mention to Monique. NY: Ramona NJ: Jennifer Aydin her first season. I never watched Dallas because I couldn’t get past the red head lady’s eyebrows (I don’t even know her name). I was also never interested in Miami or DC. |

I haven't had enough time to catch up until today. Let's review.
PK and Dorit review again the horrific break in. Thanks be to God that Dorit's bee-whispering Israeli Army father trained her to remain calm in an emergency--the outcome could have been disastrous, as these were clearly seasoned criminals who make Housewives count to 40 before going to retrieve their phones conveniently left near the gate.
If I had the misfortune to break into Dorit's house you can bet the FIRST thing I would do is smash her phone just to be petty, and after that I'd probably throw her off the balcony because you know she didn't shut up for one second.
But we needn't worry, as PK assures her that the LAPD personally told him he's got the entire force at his back on this matter. Nice to know that the LAPD is going to get to the bottom of it while umpteen other 911 calls in less desirable areas were probably ignored, but hey, good for you rich white folks. I just hope she can smile again one day...PK heaps the praise: "You're stronger than me" yes, PK, you blubbering mess, everyone is stronger than you.
Let's move on.
Kyle's barely noticeable part in a Major Hollywood Movie is toasted while Sutton is roasted (I believe the issue stems from some dumb charity event where Rinna and Harry Hamlin were guests of Elton but Sutton claims she bought them tickets and wasn't thanked properly, in any case I'm having a terrible time mustering up any give-a-shits)
Please welcome Diana Jenkins, who I have never heard of but she appears to be some Bosnian cougar with a youthful uterus
Harry Hamlin celebrates his 70th birthday with his wife's castmates, your first clue that either he's shit at making friends OR this is just a drama setup by Bravo.
PK makes sure we know that the cheapest watch he lost in The Great Break-in was about 60k and Rinna agrees that's chump change. 🤣
So then we adjourn to Diana's home, where we meet her dog and some kids and various household employees. We learn that she married rich (duh) and then decided she wasn't happy (double duh) so she divorced and then conveniently met 25 year old musician Asher at a Victoria's Secret party. Get it, girl!
Then my on demand Bravo quit working so I missed the very end. But that's ok, I'm a Very Strong Woman and I will survive this inconvenience.
Shut up!
You shut up!
Go fuck yourself!
You go fuck yourself!
🤣🤣🤣

And Zee I’ll take a quick look since some of the people are the same. |

I don't think I can muster up much of a review for Episode 3. It was just Kyle's desert home, her ill-trained dogs stealing food off her guests' plates AS THEY ATE (REVOLTING!), Crystal still crying about Sutton returning a coat as she clutched her nakedness and quivered in the corner. We are made to re-live the terrible Violation and how no one at the time would validate her feelings. Still, no one validates her feelings except Sutton so she leaves in tears.
It's so 2021 honestly
Kyle opens another clothing store
Diana pretends to not understand how shopping for oneself in a physical store works, as if she didn't tell us last week she's a Bosnian refugee who cleaned toilets for a decade to get by (sure ya did)
Garcelle, I fell asleep three times just typing her name she's so boring
Erika looked smooth, unlined, and evil. I'm really jealous of her skin and level of Resting Bitch Face

Zee your recaps are hilarious. My give-a-damn broke after the first episode of the first season. We're rich and here are our closets w/our designer purses and jewels. Then they are shocked when they're robbed. As for Erica's raise. Nice that they're feeling so sorry for her. Since she thinks that she's the real victim in all of this that must make it true. I cannot stand any of these women. They're all fake and shallow. Why do I watch? Cause I can. Though I really prefer Below Deck.

@zee : Always spot-on with your reviews!!!!!! I am PISSED that Erika is even back, but she got a raise?? What crap!! That could only mean that she's bringing viewers in to see her crazy life. I think she's a complete shithead. She never said anything about the (supposed)poor people in the lawsuit. I don't buy that she can't speak about them since she just did...... She flaunts her "small" house, her assistant and hair/clothing dude, etc. Gross...
Every week that Dorit speaks about this break-in, I'm wondering if it was real.
Lisa is full-on whacked since last year, but I feel horrible that Lois passed. She was a cool woman. Harry is 70 but looks like he's 90 (in decent shape though).
Why is Sutton's clothing store SO empty?? There are like 4 items on each rack. Her backwards outfit was strange but it looked like good quality. I'd cover my chicken legs though......
Garcielle must have gotten the extra paychecks since she started SO much trouble. SO lame. I loved that Sutton and Crystal both said, "We talked about it and it's done". These bitches want the details so they could talk about it ALL season. Same storyline, same shit. Not sure why we keep watching!

I have nothing further to add other than apparently we're going to be forced to walk along this healing path with Dorit for the entire rest of the season. 🙄
But what I want to know is, who is watching Dubai? I've only seen two episodes and so far I'm disappointed. They're not that interesting and they live in regular houses rather than the mansions or spectacular skyrises I was expecting.
There is a very lanky model who needs subtitles, a blonde mutton dressed as lamb showing us her new toy Sergio (forced by her or Bravo or both to make his on-camera debut in just a towel), someone with a bad wig, someone else, some American who is unsuccessfully trying to get her kids to eat on the floor, some dull parties. Footage of camels. So much camel footage. Even boring footage of grocery shopping. THIS IS NOT HOW YOU HOOK ME IN, BRAVO.
I hope things heat up soon.

I haven't had the chance to see RHODubai yet as the site I watch my HW's on hasn't loaded it yet. I was really hoping it would show some of the Middle Easterner's family antics because they are crazy AF! Definitely would make for some good reality TV. I will come back and let you know when I see it.
I am disappointed about them living in regular houses too. I am used to seeing some pretty swanky villas here but Dubai villas are like next level. I was hoping to see that.
