OK. I am done with BH. This was a set up....the following was taken from the Vulture site-- "How did production learn about Brandi’s story and why was she invited on? Did one of the women set Denise up? Did production sell her out because they had a dud of a season?" Perhaps that explains Andy's glee. I, for one, am sick of it and have taken this show off my DVR. You're totally right. Even if Brandi's story was true, she certainly didn't need to conveniently share it on camera. It's a new low for RHOB, and that's saying something.

It's not new. This kind of thing has been going on since way back. On all Housewives shows. It's kind of a thing.

If producers didn't intervene, the shows would be very very boring - my life would be pretty darn boring shown on TV. I think most of these women would be too without producer manipulation!

Finally binged watched this season.
There was a time that Brandi wasn't so desperate. I just don't think the $5,000 per episode stipend Brandi earned is worth outing herself as desperate, a phony and a fool.
With that said, I have no idea why Teddi is a part of Housewives. Either she's being edited out or wholly incapable of holding her own.

There's one really simple question for any of the women to ask Denise - if Brandi's story was untrue, why did she spend so much time at dinner calling out Bravo Bravo Bravo trying to keep them from using it?

If to watch the After Shows and perhaps assorted other interviews, you'll learn that Denise is said to have called out Bravo, Bravo, Bravo at multiple occasions during the season to stop conversations, implying, perhaps, that there is something else going on we don't know about or maybe we do and it's no big deal? Denise calls out Bravo, Bravo, Bravo and doesn't leave the table and, instead, continues to discuss the matter at hand? Did she really spend "so much time at dinner" trying to keep them from using it? There isn't editing or Frankenbiting? And even if remotely true, all that really matters is Brandi using Denise to wedge herself back onto the show. That and Kyle and Teddi using what Brandi said in attempt to justify Teddi's continuing as a full time housewife. If to follow just the edit, being treated as if furniture strongly suggests this will be Teddi's last year and LVP will return because Lisa Rinna is still Rinna and not Lisa.

Garcelle made a really great point relating Rinna’s tendency to show off her great body with her daughters body issues. She nailed the problems with Rinnas approach to parenthood. She’s so self involved that she looks at her daughters as an extension of herself instead of as people she has to protect and put ahead of her own wants.

Reading twitter, Leah ( NY)believes Denise, and even if Denise isn't telling the whole truth, is still on her side, because it's none of the hags business. DIL thinks vile kyle is feeding info to her sister, who tells that mess, Brandi everything. Brandi's face!

If Denise cheated on her husband it is none of their business...she doesn't owe them nothing...nada...no explanation. I'm so over the topic....
Anyone else think their stay in Rome was lackluster? It seems like they didn't do much...I know it's heavily edited but damn...

It seems like they didn't do much...I know it's heavily edited but damn... I'm torn on whether or not I agree with that. In normal life, I'd agree that if a woman cheats on her husband it's not her casual friend's business (very closest friends may be a different story). But realty show friends have different rules. When they decide to go on the show, they decide to open up a pretty big chunk of their lives for public consumption and careful review from their friends. When they choose to put family members on the show, I think it opens them up to a degree for those relationships to be dissected as well. I don't think it would be right to discuss Sutton or Erica's kids as neither of them brings them on the show as part of their stories. I apply the same rule to any spouse or boyfriend who is brought on the show. If you make it part of your story, it's fair game. We all know there are times a cast will make a ladies agreement to not discuss sensitive topics. When they all have a bond and choose to do that, it's fine ... although if it is a big story and becomes fodder for gossip blogs, I think they have to reverse course because to deny it hurts the show. But I don't think the general rules of polite conversation among casual friends applies to a housewives franchise.

Catching upon last nights show. Of the voices of reason I agree with Erica more than I do Garcelle. I think Erica was absolutely right when she said that if they ever had the conversation they could move past it. Denise has been dodging the conversation all season. It’s nice that Garcelle cheered her on for speaking up. But using your voice is only valuable if you listen as well as speaking up.

Reading this small section of an article made me laugh out loud. "As for Denise’s drama with Brandi, LVP says she “probably” believes Denise’s side of the story but admits she hasn’t watched any of season 10 of RHOBH. Meanwhile, Brandi hasn’t backed down and continues to call out Denise on social media." " “Maybe if you’re so worried about hurting your children, then as a married woman, you should not f–k your castmates and expect it not to get out,” Brandi tweeted in early August. “Take responsibility for your part DR.”" www.allabouttrh.com/2020/08/14/lisa-vanderpump-says-she-would-love-to-connect-with-denise-richards-amid-rough-time-on-rhobh/Brandi Glanville isn't a cast member. She's an extra earning $5k a filmed episode she participates in and, otherwise, a useless old drunk. Maybe something happened with Denise or most likely it didn't, but, regardless, this is all about her climbing over Denise in attempt to gain a cast spot on Housewives. Honestly, does anyone other than Brandi think that'll happen? If the show was even entertaining using Brandi for anything other than developing actual cast members story lines, they wouldn't have aired her looking like such a loser when falling down drunk during Kyle's party.

I finally watched this week's episode and, again, noticed Teddi's participation continues to be edited out other than when necessary to forward another cast member's storyline. Proof? The last segment of the last episode during their last Italian dinner when the girls shared stories of trouble they put themselves in when a teenager and the craziest place having had sex. We watched all the girls sharing a moment except for one ... Teddi. It must be that we're watching her last season as a Housewife for what else could it be?

Perhaps she didn’t share a story? Not all women are willing to share those stories. Not all women have those stories. Perhaps as the daughter of a celebrity she knew that if she ever got caught in a compromised position as a teen it could be reported on and put her dad in a bad light.

It could be that she's that boring or private, but then why is she participating in this show? It wasn't just that scene she was cut from .. except for her necessary to move along another housewife story line, if was as if Teddi wasn't really there as if her participation edited out.
I honestly don't think I'm wrong.
Was it Orange County or Beverly Hills that announced a brand-new full-time Housewife that quit early on edited as if never there even though we could see her physical body in early episodes scenes? I cannot remember her name or anything about her except she was there but wasn't there.
Didn't bring it up because I wanted to re-watched the episode before (which I haven't had the time to do), but in this episode, Kyle seems as if barely present. Is it that most of her relevant scenes were interacting with Teddi?

Teddi's 'personal advisor', or whatever, business has exploded big time since she's been on the show. So, there's that. But yes, she's a self-involved bore.

Strikes me that the bleats about not caring about Richards and Granville having sex is in fact all they care about.
All these women despise one another. They know they’re each trashed by each of the other women. That’s a given. They talk about how they “love” one another, such tripe. They discuss how - gasp ! - they’re shocked to be dissed by one another, how shocking!
But, no, lesbian sex doesn’t bother them at all- they so duplicitously say. What childish little worthless women they are. Homosexuality is a fact of life, but they simply cannot admit they care about the sexual relationship more than they care about hate talk among themselves. Kyle in particular, mouth agape when Granville said she had sex with Richards. Then Kyle says oh no that doesn’t bother me at all.

Who was it that encouraged Denise to meet Brandi back in season 9, episode 17? Do we know?
I'm listening to Brandi's May 3, 2019, interview with Denise in Mendocino, northern California, and it's clear that Brandi's interest in Denise is solely about Brandi's hopes to rejoin Housewives and Brandi insisting it's LVP preventing that from happening.
Towards the end of the podcast, Denise's children interrupt, wanting to know when their mom would finish. Denise then said that after the interview, they all plan to have lunch and go horseback riding. The kiddos were there, so why wouldn't Aaron be there, too?
Brandi and Denise meeting on one occasion to be filmed for season 9 episode 17, and the recording of the podcast appears to be the only two occasions Brandi and Denise meet. However, there was some chatter about helping Brandi find a better place to live.
So, Brandi is selling out her "friendship" with Denise for a spot on the show, is all for not in that she assumes LVP and perhaps now, also Denise, won't return if Brandi does?
Another question is, behind the scenes, is Teddi orchestrating what is happening? In other words, is this the reason we've been watching Teddi's participation edited out except for what is necessary to forward others' storylines?

Flipping channels last night, I came upon a Spanish version of Beverly Hills housewives entitled Rica. Famosa. Latina. What caught my eye is that three of the ladies were shopping on Rodeo Drive carrying shopping bags from the elite stores. Even though it's in Spanish, I enjoyed watching this version which has been on the air since 2014. From what I could make out, their conversation was dishing dirt on another housewife. One of these women supposedly is worth over $200 million, owning her own company, per online information.

I think they made a huge mistake to include the Denise drama in the finale. The rules about the fourth wall in reality shows exists for a reason and they should have respected it. They showed way too much of how manipulated and scripted the show was.
It’s no wonder Denise didn’t show up at Dorits party - producers jumped in to make sure Brandi was there. That was a low blow. It was clear that the party should have been the season ending party with the ice in the pool as the final shot. They should have left it that way. The lunch with Lisa Dorit and Garcelle was clearly manipulated to put Denise in her place. The meeting with Lisa and Denise was clearly manipulated to put Denise in her place.
I get it - Denise pissed Bravo off with the cease and desist and they wanted to get back at her. But she’s a fame seeking celebrity. The strongest way to punish her is to not give her attention. They should have just kept filming and if she didn’t want to show up, move on.
You remember that scene in Game of Thrones where they screwed up and left a Starbucks cup on the table? The last half hour of this show looked like they screwed up and left the script on the table.

Denise has been in Spain filming , she's in a soap opera isn't she. She was on ET a couple of weeks ago, she looks fabulous without any makeup.. Whats with Kyle's hair.. Rinna is a viscous nobody. ( what a great friend) she should maybe own all the rumors about Harry, that Kim dared to bring up..

So much manipulation, by Bravo, Bravo, Bravo and by the housewives. They’re all puppets of Andy Cohen. If they don’t act and do what Bravo says, they could be the next victims of Bravo’s smear campaign.

Denise may be in Spain for another acting job but not BOLD as basically BOLD which is filmed here in L.A. is using allot of mannequins for allot of up close scenes, so I know this SOAP is not overseas.
