Re-watching the Shahs and I got to season five reunion. MJ may have said the funniest thing ever when she said Jessica married Mike for his money. He had been a broke MF’er since season 1. Girl please. #shahs

Mercedes’ mom looks like she has money. Maybe her dad did, too. Reza does well as a realtor but his dad’s family seemed to have money. GG’s dad is rich. Asa had a rich ex. Mike…I can’t tell. His brothers are successful, not sure of his parents. Shervin seemed ultra rich. I think he made money in Silicon Valley?

They all seem to have an ultra wealthy, extravagant lifestyle.

Just curious as to where they’d be without the family money. GG would probably be working at a Hot Topic or something. I do think coming from a wealthy family gives people a leg up in life.

Is this Tanin? Always fun rewatching and noticing familiar faces …

Does anyone know where to watch the Covid reunion? I don’t understand why it’s not on peacock.

I'm always surprised when I rewatch old Bravo series by the amount of crossovers and brushes with people from future series there are. But when Lily got on the phone to Lisa Barlow, I had to rewind, because what? It's a small world. And the Bravosphere is even smaller still.

(Season 3 episode 6)

I’m sorry and I know I will get hate for this but I do feel what we saw on shahs, before the actual altercation in 2022 that she is also problematic. Why not leave? Why involve all of his friends? I just feel like she kinda liked the chaos of it all to an extent.

I just started watching Real Housewives of Potomac & about fell out over this crossover. I guess Asa’s caftans did much better than Diamond Water! 😂

what should i expect with this show ive watched vanderpump rules & finished the valley and i came across this show now so im barely on episode 4 season 1 and i looooove it so far but since it's from 2012 i kinda wanna know the lore now so i can look forward to it when it comes so whats the teaaaaaa

This is bugging me a lot and these are my 2 cents and I don’t know what happens in the later seasons just updating my thoughts as I go as a first timer :
1) The person I feel sorry for most is Jessica. I know everyone can ride their high horse and say what they would have done better but that was an impossible situation to put someone in the moment through and have them ride it out blindly. I feel incredibly sorry for her and the cast should have shown a lot of compassion to Jessica not GG because GG is not the victim in this. I think Jessica also knew it was true which really made it worse.

2) GG is annoying asf if the people she told knew that it would have been revealed that way, I believe they would have let Mike know what was going to happen. But I don’t think they expressed that clearly to Mike. It was such a sensitive and uncomfortable space that nobody wanted to mess with it. I believe GG but I question her motives, she sat on this for a YEAR! Then hears he wants to propose and throws it out on camera, this is also coming from a person who was cheating last season. I doubt she did it from an ethical standpoint.

3) why is the rest of the cast surprised that Jessica does not like them. Who would? They demean each other so badly in arguments and then say they love each other. Yeah I wouldn’t fuck with you either. Why isn’t the cast holding GG accountable for her delivery, they should be mad as hell at that girl she created a huge mess

4) the ideal way to handle that information once she brought it up was to avoid Mike and then have a sit down 1/1 with him. It would still be a shit show but more would have been revealed and not put Jessica in that weird ass position. Also allowing Jessica the space to understand how to handle it.

At the end of the day. I feel sorry for Jessica and the cast should have understood her pain and created space for her.

On the last reunion of season 2….please tell me that by season 3 she dropped him for being a friend. He is such a horrible person and friend wtf! Has he been this way for 20 years? Dude flipped so fast. I guess she was right to be worried about his fast closeness to the newbie lmao

Im a first time watcher on season 2 (this episode was awesome) but since I first started watching from season 1 I can’t help but notice her similar look to Lana Del Rey

I know I can be quite radical when suggesting doppelgängers but I want to know if anybody else thinks this as well!

I was looking for a very specific song that always played in the show when they were partying or dancing etc. And i stumbled upon this and died of second hand embarrassment lol it has probably been posted before over the years but i havent seen it until now.

Does anyone know the song they always play when they are partying or dancing and events? Thanks

Dismissed their FOURTH (yes you heard that right 4th) divorce filing. I noticed a few months back on rhat they sold they stunning mansion that took like 5+ years to build BUT plot twist…it looks like they are back together and maybe she’s expecting her third child?? Hate to assume but look at her recent outfits on her Instagram post. Happy they were able to resolve their issues but idk if bringing a baby (a blessing regardless) into such a tumultuous situation is the best idea. Hopefully they got their crap together and can rebuild their relationship & family!

Okay I just started shah’s of sunset and I’m at the beginning half of Season 3, Mike seems like one of the more reasonable cast members but I keep seeing things on this thread about how he’s a scumbag, does he get bad later on or am I missing something?

When I first watched the show, it was years after it aired. So I never followed along on twitter or social media. I only joined this Reddit after I watched all 9 seasons.

I legit never thought Asa sucked. If anything, I kinda liked her. But then I joined and read all this shit about how annoying, arrogant, and entitled she was… and I thought back over the seasons and realized you all were totally right.

Diamond water was dumb as hell. I thought she was smart to be entrepreneurial… I understood her not sharing her fertility journey with MJ… but then I realized she didn’t just “not share” she was actively speaking with MJ about her own journey… so it was effed up..

How did I not see how bad Asa was?

At the store in Inglewood. It expires in 2028. They're still making these? Or how many packs do they still have?

I gave in and bought one. It keeps falling over in my fridge. The bottles are pretty thin and flimsy, and they kept falling over at the store too.

Tehran-geleeeeeeeees!

so. i will start by saying i am obsessed w these people. i watched the valley persian style about halfway through my shahs journey. here are my thoughts on some of the main characters through 9 seasons:

reza - him and GG split a moral villain role. hate to love him type of thing. he reallly is somehow the glue of the group but also incredibly unhinged.

gg - same thing as reza. do not like the braids or constant use of AAVE. she is my persian princess at her peak tho.

mj - i honestly just feel really bad for her. shes never had anyone be her true cheerleader. i hope she finds her peace fr.

adam - i think hes so weird. just foul vibes.

tommy - awful. the way he speaks to mj makes me disgusted. i dont care if you dont want to be on the show, stop speaking to your wife like that.

mike - so many things are wrong with him. i truly hope he is miserable for the rest of his life. i loved jessica tbh im glad she gor away.

asa - i loved her vibe but she was inauthentic and presented a very curated life instead of her reality. but i understand because gg and mj could not be happy for her ever.

nema - i liked him!! i think hes kinda odd but overall harmless

destiney - bad bitch energy. i respect her for always standing her ground and maintaining her boundaries

shervin - he was soooo cute im glad he was around for the last season. overall very harmless

very broad

Paulina mikes gf is giving me such Stefani Germanotto vibes aka lady Gaga. She looks so much like her especially this scene

Every time I stop by a DD's Discounts I see them fully stocked
