I actually don’t know their names because, like OC, they are all kind of forgettable to me. Is Mary the one who looks simultaneously young and old? Like, in one scene she’ll look 14 and in the next, she looks 44? Or is she the one dating that super mega hot black guy? Or is she the black chick? I honestly have no idea.
I vote we pick a time after it airs to do an online stream. It would be hilarious.
Probably the one who looks young and old at the same time. Her face is fat and puffy, no wrinkles, although she must be in her mid 40’s. She’s the one that was getting her hair done and got jealous when Michaele came in with her “I love yous!” to the hairdresser, and the one upset about the daughter being “implicated”. And she’s the one with the fingerprint-ID closet.
Mary’s also the one who’s Arthur Godfrey’s granddaughter, who has a closet that requires that she put her fingerprint on it to be opened, and whose daughter has a large dog.
I first read that as “is a large dog”, and that works, too. Unfortunate-looking girl.
Yup, same person. I think she’s the victim of fillers— I mean, from certain angles, it works, she looks young. But from others. . .puffy. In fact, she looked puffier in this last episode than in the first. I wonder if she got some treatments between the filming of those.
Did the sixty grand shopping spree Teresa went on after bankruptcy take place after or before the reunion was filmed? I’d love to see what she says to justify that. (Though her lawyer thought it was great because that way they don’t have to use the money to pay back the pesky creditors.)
Also can’t wait to see if Danielle owns up to the fact that her friend Danny called Christopher a “fag” and she did nothing despite being all about gay rights last season when Joe insulted the dance instructor for being gay.
Um, don’t you know? Danielle didn’t call him a fag. She can’t control the people she randomly brought to the party with the intent of starting trouble? PAY ATTENTION. 
And their reunion was filmed 2 or so weeks ago, I think.
And the fag issue is just something that these WOMAN are using to persecute her, right?
I don’t know if you noticed but they’re basically stalking her. They’re obsessed with her. Btw, kids, go get in the car, we’re going to drive by the Manzos’ house a few times.
Psyched for tonight? Have to admit, I am.
I’m wondering what’s going to happen next season when Danielle is gone. Will it just be lots of ham game? Teresa pasting Chanel labels onto K-Mart clothes?
Okay, the reunion airs twice tonight: once at 10 and once at 11:15 (as it is an hour and fifteen minutes long). If those of us in the east wait until the 11:15 showing, could the people in the west find an internet broadcast or torrent of the 10 o’clock showing?
There isn’t a live stream of Bravo anywhere on the net- trust me, various blogs and stuff are constantly trying to find them. Boo! I think we’re going to have to just do two shifts. I’ll be here at 10 PST though 
Mary - biometric closet lady
Lynda - has the super hot boyfriend
Stacie - the black woman whose aunt’s house I want to go to for dinner.
And obviously Cat is the bitchy English woman and Michaele is the classless anorexic.
Not sure if I’ll be watching at 10 or the later showing. Sometimes on Mondays I go to the gym and take my shower around ten, and then watch the 11 (or in this case, 11:15) showing. Though I’m so morbidly curious, I may have to forego my daily constitutional in favor of seeing what happens.
Did you guys see the clip of Andy Cohen filming himself waiting for the gals to come back from lunch the day of the reunion? It was very Blair Witch Project. Andy’s certainly made a name for himself with the Housewives, but I don’t envy him having to interact with them!
ETA: Aunt Frances! She was sweet. I’d have been livid if someone came to my house and bitched about the wine. Not even in her video diary interview thingy. But right there in front of everyone.
I’m trying to put my finger on why I’m not into DC. I think it’s because the other seasons certainly have the obnoxious character (usually one totally insane person, but who still has or had likable moments), a couple of middle of the road, crazy but not totally batshit folks who are good for laughs, then a sane person or two. On DC, it’s 3 nice but boring people, then two absolutely insane people with no redeeming qualities.
For example:
Atlanta:
Absolutely batshit/ obnoxious: Sheree (but even though she’s batshit, she has her likable moments)
A little batshit, good for entertainment, still over all likeable: Kim and Nene
Boring but whatever: all the other bitches on the show who have now basically been replaced.
New Jersey:
Absolutely batshit: Danielle
A little batshit but overall likable: Theresa
Boring but likable: Jaqueline, Caroline, etc.
New York:
Absolutely batshit: Kelly
A little batshit: Bethanny, Ramona, sometimes Jill
Boring but likable: everybody else.
On DC, though, there’s the two totally unlikable crazy bitches (they aren’t nice, they aren’t funny, they aren’t pleasant to listen to, they aren’t intelligent-- they have no redeeming qualities)- Cat and Michaele. Then the rest are totally unremarkable- nice enough women, but don’t stand out at all.
Speaking of Cat, the NYTimes Style Section did an article on her husband (the photojournalist). Here it is. He says it’s essentially been awful for him and his career because as a photographer he needs to fade into the background and as a reality show star (co-star?), he’s now very recognizable.
She’s so completely unlikable. Like, totally. When I heard her husband was leaving her, my first thought was, “Makes sense. I’d leave that bitch, too” I’m pretty hateful, but even I rarely think that about someone.
I’m mostly curious to see what the Salahis do next, and how badly they can get tangled up in their own lies. Obviously, the zenith is when they crashed the White House state dinner, but they do something fucked up in every episode. Is their winery even for real? That’s what I want to know.
East Coast Dopers. . . I hope you are enjoying :). I’m watching reruns to tide me over.
As awful as people think Danielle is it is hard to not think these other women have some kind of preoccupaton with her. All she is doing is sitting there while everyone else works themselves into a tizzy and hurls all kinds of awful things out of their mouths at her.
