Meredith & Whitney's Changing RHOSLC Roles, Why RHONY Needs Carole & Dolores Catania Plays All Sides Nov 13, 2026

Show notes

As this season of RHOSLC moves along, rumors, and nastiness of a cast shake up grow louder and stronger but who will stay and who will go? RHONY is having its rebirth season and much of that is due to Carole Radziwill. Dolores plays all sides of the fence as RHONJ is finally back on our TVs in a few short weeks.

Vicki & Tamra's Fight To Return Season 21, Karen Huger's New Reign & The Golden Life's Problems Nov 12, 2026

Show notes

As this season of RHOC has come to a close, one thing is very clear. Vicki and Tamra’s power struggle to be on top is worse than ever with one primed to head into the future with RHOC 21 and one to be put out to pasture with a mere handshake. The Golden Life struggles in the ratings as Ramona and gang fight to hold onto to their prime TV spots. Last, but not least, with a stellar season operating on all cylinders of RHOP, Karen Huger is rebuilding her life one scene at a time.

Leah Remini & Tracy Tutor Are Fighting w/ Erika, Sutton Dumps Man w/ Criminal Past & Dolores Mad At Teresa Nov 11, 2026

Show notes

Kathy Hilton just had her annual Holiday pajama party and with most of the cast of RHOBH in attendance, there was no shortage of tea spilled. The new teams for season sixteen are apparently Dorit, Erika and Rachel versus Kyle, Leah, Tracy and Sutton with everyone else neutral. After Leah said she is having a much harder time than expected, it seems Leah and Tracy are feuding with both Dorit and Erika in a series of epic showdowns set to make the new season explosive. Sutton listened to the internet and dropped her new man with a criminal past. Last, but not least, Dolores is said to be fuming over Teresa not attending Frankie Jr.’s wedding even though she was, to be clear, invited.

RHONJ: What To Expect w/ United Tre/ Mel, RHOSLC's New Lost Scene, Andy's New Era & All's Fair Returns Nov 10, 2026

Show notes

RHONJ has a release date, the newbies have been introduced to the public, Teresa and Melissa are on their joint “we love each other press tour” and Bravolebs and fans nationwide have weighed in as we are a mere few weeks away from the return of RHONJ! RHOSLC is still deleting important scenes that will never see the light of day just like the Heather’s black eye and Meredith’s plane meltdown. Andy Cohen is in his love era. All’s Fair season two has landed. Glee is coming back. AHS has confused us all. All this and more as everyone’s fav chumps, Patrik and Pol, return for a little chat.

Leah Remini & Tracy Tutor Come In Hot, RHONY's Explosion & RHOBH BTS Filming Tea (w/ Patrik/ Pol) Nov 09, 2026

Show notes

RHONY is having an explosive season and, not only is it Andy’s fav show on Bravo at the moment, the show is a bona fide hit with season 17 already green lit. Who said Andy does not always get what he wants. Tea from behind the scenes filming of RHOBH is spilled as both Leah and Tracy Tutor have come in very hot. The Golden Life has a few problems. Still Flipping Out has a few problems. Finally, we offer a few unsolicited words of advice to housewives past and present.

Vicki & Tamra's Fight Over Who Stays For RHOC 21, Kyle & Amanda's Bloodbath & PK/ Dorit's Ugly Divorce Nov 08, 2026

Show notes

Amanda Batula and Kyle Cooke are in an all out blood bath which started last week after Amanda quit “In The City” and has continued all week this week with he said, she said, she said, he said on social with even the likes, again, of the one and only Dave Portnoy on the case. Amanda “Batuglia” Batula, we may have just seriously underestimated you. Meanwhile, Vicki and Tamra’s all out war has resumed and this time it is over the future of the show and just who will be back for RHOC 21. Speaking of RHOC, we break down the reunion looks from best to worst with a very unexpected winner. Last, but not least, Dorit and PK’s divorce gets ugly AF with nannies, assistants and other Kemsley employees being called to the stand. We are seated!
