I was surprised they aired the discussions/mentions of the cast mixing drugs and alcohol this season. I haven't watched all of the seasons, so maybe this is the norm.

I love that Kristen called Scheena out on being unprofessional to say she didn’t watch the show. I also love that in doing so she got Scheena to show how much she lies about things. She’d just said she fast forwards through other people’s scenes which is why she didn’t know about Patrick. But then her excuse for not watching became that it was hard to watch a relationship that she’d just ended. Liar. Self involved liar.

I think Jax has changed a little bit, and I'm betting he marries Brittney. Did Schwartz work( before TomTom?) Or did Katie pay all the bills? I have always liked LaLa..Stassi, Meh, we'll see how the new guy works out.Scheana won't be single for long, she's not capable.. Xanax and booze..lovely! Stassi isn't alone though.. Kristen makes me want to take a shower

LaLa reminds me of Erika Jayne too much. Not at all a fan and I do think she's overly dramatic and trashy.

I think that for right now, Jax has changed in recognizing that he can't talk to Britney by cutting her down all the time and expect others to think that's okay. After his dad died, I think he saw the value in having him in her life and the ways she takes care of him. That being said, the way he was cutting down and attacking other people - primarily women - during the reunion shows me he hasn't changed. He's just discovered he has to say nice things to build Britney up. So I don't think it will take long at all before he falls back into the habits of cutting her down too ... he'll just try to fix it with some compliments. I think he'll end up marrying Britney because Britney wants marriage and children and isn't willing to put the work into building that with someone new. I think Britney also wants to think she's the one who "tamed" Jax. The producers will want a wedding planning storyline and she'll give it to them. On Schwartz - he worked at Sur with the rest of them prior to Tom Tom, as well as doing a little modelling like Sandoval.

On Schwartz - he worked at Sur with the rest of them prior to Tom Tom, as well as doing a little modelling like Sandoval. I agree, acookertv, and I think that any change that Jax has had since his dad died will only be a temporary change. He seems to think of Britney as not much more than a 'housekeeper' who he can 'put down' whenever he feels like it, and can have sex with, whenever he feels like it. Other than the fact that she's very sweet and does seem to take care of his needs, he doesn't seem to have much of an attraction to her, or much of an interest in her. I think Jax would be doing both himself and Britney a HUGE favor if he broke off the relationship with her, and found himself someone he is seriously attracted to and interested in. Or if there was no such person for Jax, then he should just keep on dating and screwing around, and NOT get into another relationship with another woman who he can't remain faithful to. And to take care of his housekeeping and care-taking needs, he can just hire someone to do that. Problem solved.

I think Jax will never find a woman who he's truly interested in, because I think he's got an issue with respecting women. It's not a matter of Britney caring about things he's not interested in - he just views women as sperm receptacles. This worked just fine for most of his life while he and his friends were hooking up with women and the contest was to see who could get more women. But now the guys who he cares about and respects as friends are settling into serious relationships with women who are each of their primary concerns. Jax is the one who is left out, and he's not sure how to have that in his life with a self-respecting woman who he will treat as an equal. He doesn't see women as equals which creates a huge problem. So instead he settles for Britney who will settle for not being treated as an equal.

Layla drives me crazy with the ‘my man’ stuff. I was happy to hear Lisa emphasize she got her nice things by working for them, not by pleasing ‘her man.’

I was hot and cold with Lisa last night in the way she was running things. After Lala walked off, I laughed at the way that Lisa first got mad that they were all walking off, and then walked off herself for the same reason that Katie and Arianna had walked off - to get the others. With Lala I liked the way she was encouraging her to speak up and be honest with James, but I thought she laid it on a bit thick making Stassi trade seats with her so she could "support" Lala.

Maybe Jax doesn't want Brit, but he sure doesn't want anyone else with her, does he? I thought she was a bit of a pushover, but listening last night, I don't think she is. Scheana otoh ,is.

I'm oddly fascinated with all of them. This show is such a guilty pleasure and I can't stop watching. I wanted to like Scheena for the longest time but this season has put that to bed. All done.

As much as the cast can annoy me at times, I find the show a guilty pleasure too.

[Shaking my head. . .] I just finished watching part 3 of the Vanderpump Rules Reunion shows, and all I can say is these people are really living in their own world. Not to mention delusional, crazy, narcissistic, unrealistic, etc. etc. etc. And yet, for some reason I LOVE this show!

I loved the never shown before scenes , it was on last night.. Shay looked happy. Scheana was saying how long she knew Rob, and was asked if she lost her virginity to him. Her answer, not in my vagina..

She’s gotten more delusional through the years. On the other hand, Carter is the best thing to ever happen to Kristen. What a totally different person she is now, for the better.

I think some of that is Carter, but some of it is also Kristen just growing up. To me, that's one of the funny things about the reality of doing this show for as long as they have - the show started out portraying a group of kids in their 20s trying to figure things out and make enough money to survive their lifestyles in LA. Now, they are growing up, making A LOT more money because of the show, but still having to give an appearance of working hard to make it being young and dumb so that the show is good. I give many of them credit in their 'acting" because they pull off the illusion.

Carter sounds very controlling to me. A couple of times I've seen red flags with him. I'm not a huge fan of Kristen, but she's definitely grown up. In the scenes we hadn't seen, I don't remember even seeing Kristen.

After finishing the reunion segments, I just had to say those words out loud, and shake em off!!! By the way, I always have trouble finding this thread cause it's in the "Real Housewives" section. Is there any way it can be transferred to the "Other Reality Shows" section? If so, thanks so much!

Sorry, I started the thread where it was in the old place. I guess it was there because it is technically a spin off of RHOBH.

My first thought when I saw the news was wondering whether Jax waited until they were filming. Lo and behold, Brittany confirms in her instagram announcement that it was in fact right at the start of filming!
