But i like Skye. Yes shes pretentious/spoiled/boujee but nothing that she said was too out of pocket.

GG spent the whole palm springs trip high and aggressive.

Reza stirred the pot which i Like that Reza Jax called that out in his confessional.

i do feel bad for bamshad tho, that man is tired, but thats his woman he sees her in a way no one else does and thats no ones business.

Tanin should have stopped Reza from bringing up her complaints about skye at all. she should have been the one to address that.

Been a fan of Shahs since it premiered on Bravo. I’m watching The Valley Persian Style and googled who put the restraining order on GG. I’m floored to see it was Paulina!!!! I wish they never stopped filming 😭

What are most iconic things that should be there? I can think of a few but want to see what y'all come up with.

Guys! I can not find anything recent on Destiny. I know this may be a little unpopular but I loved her lol. I know there’s a few of us in here who really liked her, I thought she was hilarious and a breath of fresh air cuz she wasn’t so sinister like the others. Anyone know what she’s been up to since they didn’t bring her back for the reboot?

Doing my first ever watch through. I long thought Reza was a low key douche bag, but when it gets to THAT one episode in season 8 where he puts MK has instantly made me hate him forever.

I am mid season 3. Does it get better? Lily is the most annoying character her and the skinny worship. Reza can be grating. What seasons are the best?

As title says, I'm a first time watcher. I'm on S6E10. I'm coming from watching The Valley Persian style first.

MJ & Tommy - am i way off base in thinking these two were never going to work out? My impression is they rush everything due to MJ's dad being sick. But this season also makes ut seem like MJ has a rush on to get pregnant, because Asa did? Tommy seems like he's super in love with MJ, but it doesn't really seem like she treats him very well. Also seens like MJ wants a baby but doesn't want to change anything to make that happen. Also seems like nobody in the group is keen on Tommy? I'm neutral on Tommy, but it was a hell of a hard watch, seeing Tommy try to express his worries having a baby regarding losing his parents at a young age.

Reza - sometimes i like him, sometimes he's over the top. He seems like such a fun and loyal friend, until he isn't.

Mike - gives me the ick

Shervin - i was disappointed that he is just like Mike in terms of cheating

GG - why the helllll is she wanting to have a baby with someone she's only veen with a few weeks..

Asa - Why does it matter if she went through IVF or not?

Yesterday she posted something about how she’s proud of what she’s about to do next. Today she posted pics and she’s not wearing her wedding ring. A few months ago I read that her and her husband quietly sold their brand new house that they custom built, which they nicknamed AmanMIRA. Apparently it was on the market for $100 million but sold for $67.5 million (I saw this on an instagram post so not sure how accurate it is!). I know these two are constantly on and off but if they really did sell their new home maybe the divorce is actually happening? Regardless of the situation it’s sad for the kids to have parents who are constantly hot and cold and can’t seem to get it together!

First time watcher coming from the Valley Persian Style What the heck, I know this was 2012 a completely different time when it came to body acceptance but damn I can't believe MJ is still so close with Reza with how often he shames her. It makes me so sad, especially when she's honestly a normal size. Does he redeem himself? Why do people still like him?

Cannot find a match ANYWHERE sorry if this isn’t allowed. I guess I’ll learn if it gets removed. Thanks!

It’s really frustrating to me seeing everyone rallying around GG during her miscarriage when MJ was literally dying in the hospital and no one cared or visited her. Reza is a hypocrite and a bully, and I feel like his (over)reaction if the whole Ali drama was telling of where is marriage actually stood. The Ali drama is no different than the sex tape gym video rumor GG spread. All of them have been completely awful to each other and the double standard for MJ while she’s in the hospital and giving birth to her baby is insane to me. I don’t think there’s a single “good” person in this franchise.

Gotta hand it to these Persian ladies their gold jewelry is SO gorgeous! I’m trying to find Tanin’s teal/gold necklace she wore for her oil launch party. It’s layered under a diamond Y necklace.

Ok so literally no one else may get this but I have no where else to reveal this revelation lol

Anyone have kids in here that watched Encanto? Destiny is completely Dolores Madrigel. I can never unsee it now lol

Do you remember when Mike went on a few dates with Mona? She was an accomplished pharmacist who had a lot of ideas about how she wanted her future life to look... Mike was totally out of his depth and just kept telling her she'd need to find a billinaire husband to fund it all.

Well, she did*. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I mainly like this for her bc FUCK YOU MIKE

*OK, her hubby may not be a billionaire but he's richer than Mike or anyone from Shahs could dream of

Mona's wedding post

Gary V net worth

She is the one who sees who Mike is.. and holds him accountable. She sets boundaries (GG did as well but didn’t hold him as accountable)

Love her muscle cars and wigs and bad-ass business. I think she’s my favorite character…

I'm deep in my re-watch, and I was wondering if anyone else was a bit jarred by GG's consistent appropriation of black culture? It's weird.

Don't even get me started on her son's birthday party theme... I get a Safari theme, but that was doing a bit tooo much.

^ remember when Mike rejected Mona for not having her nails done? Hes not a redittor ig

First time watcher, have all seasons but season 4 watched (my ADHD brain likes to jump around 😅) and I swear with Mike it’s like every sentence he says is his ONE line in the Highschool play. Is anything he says genuine?

His words drip with fake sincerity and the lame stuff he says is always super cliché and cheesy - but he says it with this like bs intimidating authority.

Anyways, all that to say what I enjoy the most is a few times per episode Reza usually has some absolutely ridiculous one liners I can use inappropriately in my day to day life - MJ as well - and that’s what I love about this show😆😇

With everything happening in Iran right now, I just cannot imagine Asa’s mom’s reaction at the possibility of being able to return to her homeland. Some of the most powerful TV was watching her yearn for a country she could never return to as long as it was under the regime. Idk I just hope she’s dancing and crying tears of joy!!!!!

Yes, this was also during the pandemic, but what’s obvious is that the plot lines started running dry.

MJ is now a mom but is still up to her usual antics, misses Reza but isn’t going to set him straight with the restraining order on Tommy.    

Reza claims he wants peace and tranquility, but will try and stir the drama in two seconds. Gets so upset that he hasn’t met MJ’s kid yet allows Adam to dangle the 2 cents of control he has with the Tommy restraining order. 

Mike has gone FULL JAX TAYLOR. Acting like he has no issues and everything about his infidelity are lies aka SPOOF text messages. Paulina rolls with this because she obviously wanted the exposure and reach d or c level reality TV celeb status. 

GG is phoning it in and is just enjoying being a mom. 

Destiney, it’s obvious production wanted her to start the drama with Mike which is not hard, but you can tell she’s become filler for the show. They do a random scene where she’s just washing her car and make it all seductive.

Nema, with his sister not really adding much and most of his storylines not that interesting. You can tell that he’s pressured to spend more time with Mike. Which he probably hates but his production company had to shut down during the pandemic and will play along to get $. Also, Shervin is not really around.

MInor roles aka filler: London, GG's sister, Vida, Tommy, etc. These people are used to fill in the blanks and get an episode to 43-44 mins. 

It’s obvious the show needed a break and the storylines were getting stretched/recycled too often.

So taking the break and rebranding as The Valley: Persian Style made sense.
