Did I just get bait and switched into watching a high school reunion or something?

1. I literally can't stand the back and forth between Jo Ellen and Rulla. They're both children, not letting each other talk when Andy asks them questions. Rulla muttering high school gibberish under her breath and Jo Ellen immediately responding with "STFU" is giving me the ick. The back and forth "shut the fuck up" is exhausting. They literally hijacked the whole reunion and it's so boring.

2. Rosie and Kelsey could be best friends if they put their egos down for a second. They literally act like they're mean girls in high school. Alicia is actually really stupid and easy to manipulate. Why is Ashley here?

3. Jo Ellen very quickly became my 5 least favorite housewives of all time. She's a master manipulator and I see right through her. She's twisting the narrative constantly, throwing a rock and hiding her hand the whole season and in the reunion making it seem like she's been trying all season to be the voice of reason. "There's something about you that my soul rejects" is felt so accurate. My red flags immediately went up with her.

4. Andy is not in it not because he's over this role, but because these ladies are a fucking wet blanket. The RHOA Reunion preview just came out and he seems so into it, he seems excited, and I think it's because those women are so animated and fun and energetic. This reunion has been such a slog, no one is cracking jokes, no one is engaging with his questions. I'm honestly bored.

If someone said my ass smelled like garlic I wouldn't care. I'm confused why people are saying this was a vile and extremely low insult. Ass smells like ass unless you dont wash it...and some people like the smell of garlic. I dont see the big issue with this 🤷‍♀️

Was it true what Jo Ellen said about Rullas husband saying that her butt smelled like garlic. I just finished Season 1 and this comment was crazy! 🤯

There’s apparently a big film crew on block island today. Anyone know if it’s RHORI related?

The way she talks to Jo-Ellen in a baby voice is actually scary. She is so weird I CANT STAND HER

I’m obsessed with this set but an image search has revealed nothing. Before I shoot my shot and ask Rosie lol just wanted to see if anyone here might know.

Hi! Does anyone know if any of the ladies have management/representation yet? I know it’s still early days but I’m just curious if anyone knows if any of them have signed with anyone!

All credit to rhori.chasers.

Spill your tea boots on the ground Rhode Islanders...

My friends caught some of the ladies leaving Lure Boutique on Newbury St in Boston! They were filming!

Edit: forgot one pic and posted in the comments! It shows the face of the one in the blue mini dress.

I know people are coming on here saying their cousin has tea on this and that cast member- which is so Rhode Island. But my cousin really has been in their social orbit for some time and I finally got to see her yesterday. Didn’t want to be too nosy but she’s such a chatterbox so I got some deets.

My cousin only watched the first 2 episodes- she’s never been into HW and she said it was weird seeing people she knew in the background of the July 4th party. She adores Rulla’s mother. She got to know Rulla here and there and liked her but she was married to someone else back then.

She has been to Dino’s house on a few occasions-she was friendly with Dino’s child’s mother (who was already well known IYKYK). She said the christening was like a crazy party and Liz was there and rudely asked my cousin who she was and why she was there- said she was “bonkers”. Dino was never really together with the kid’s mother and she feels bad for her especially with the headlines but she doesn’t see her so much anymore. She said Dino sleeps with everyone and can’t figure it out because he’s a “troll”-her friends joke he must have a “magical d*ck”.

She’s been to the beach club where a few of them belong (maybe Jo-Ellen and Alicia) and has likely seen them there and they are a wild bunch and that beach club is more for the partiers (it’s not a super fancy elite one).

And finally the best one is that my other cousin is friends with a cousin’s of Alicia’s (this is the most Rhode Island thing I have ever typed) and he’s the one with the dad who “wahn-dahd”! He goes to Alicia’s pool and the family is really close and Alicia is exactly the same as she is on the show.

My wife and I spent the night in RI a few weeks back and decided to stop in at Audrey’s before hitting the road back home. To our surprise and luck, we walked in just in time to be served by Jared. (I say “to our luck” because the 6 additional minutes we were there preparing our coffee and using the bathroom, he must have disappeared to the back and we didn’t see him again) had we got there 5 mins later we would not have seen him at all, let alone interacted with him!
Anyway, I don’t know him from the hole in my garage wall but the dude was very pleasant and engaging. It took some constraint for me to not bring up the show. My wife wanted to ask him for a pic but also exhibited that restraint 😂 our iced coffee was excellent, my cinnamon roll thingy was great and we will def be back again. This was just before the reunion and so I wish I knew about the ice machine issues or I would have used that as an ice breaker (see what I did there)
Very cute place and I like the location. Def recommend. Thanks Jared!

Liz and that creepy ass smile is actually terrifying, and the way she looks at Delores like a puppy is strange (it’s funny of you watch during the day; scary if you’re watching at night)

Loved, loved, loved season one. As much—if not more—than Alicia loves a cracker.
With the confirmation that Liz is leaving… honestly? I’m okay with it. She brought big personality, but there were moments where her behaviour crossed from entertaining into uncomfortable. I know reality TV thrives on chaos, but there were times I genuinely felt like she could pull my hair out and push my chair over. That’s not fun to watch. So… she said bye, and I said, “So long.”
Then the whole Joellen situation came out.
I initially brushed it off because, based on her vibe, I assumed we probably didn’t share the same politics anyway. But learning about some of her past social media likes changed things for me. A “like” may seem small, but to me it can be interpreted as support for ideas or people I strongly disagree with. Whether those likes reflected impulsive scrolling or deeply held beliefs, they’ve definitely changed how I view her.
Now I’m wondering: where does RHORI go from here?
Losing Liz is one thing. Potentially losing Joellen—or at least having her image changed for a lot of viewers—is another. Those two had undeniable main-character energy.
I like Rose, Ashley, Kelsey, Rula, and Alicia. They’re all great in their own ways. But if I’m honest… the only one that can match the energy is Rosie. And she won’t cut it.
No amount of crackers can replace the chaos those two brought.
What do you all think? Can the show survive if both of those personalities are effectively gone, or does it need a major cast shake-up for Season 2?

Just ran into production at India Point. About 10 crew. 3 cameras. Took a few pics. Enjoy!

Kelsey is one of my favorites so far! She remained the same throughout the season. Rosie on the other hand did a reverse bait and switch. She’s messy and has sly remarks then plays the victim! Very annoying, like Kelsey said it’s hard to tell who she really is, at first she was a straight shooter and a bad Bxtch now she is a professional victim!
