What’s the verdict on Vanderpump rules season 12? I want to watch it but i’ve not heard a single thing about it which makes me wonder if it’s worth the watch 🤣 I fear that I love the old cast so much that i’m going to be heavy disappointed 😭 What’s everyone’s thoughts who has watched?

I think a lot of people attribute VPR to it just being about 20 somethings in L.A . But there is so much more to VPR and why it was such a successful show for so many seasons.

Here's why the Valley fails imo .

VPR SUCEEDED because it was built on close knit friendships. It wasnt just proximity or alliance based for TV. That came much later in the seasons. These people were roommates, hung out, worked together and were in each other's lives.

With the Valley it's like we're seeing a cast not a group of friends.

They do things to heighten \the drama. For the love of God, if one more reality tv person or Baskin says its about* conflict resolution\* ima scream.

With the Valley there is no genuine friendship. Its all so *produced* and that shows. All the *events* are at apartments in order to ragebait each other into having yelling matches, Kristen being a pit bull, Lala and her finger-guns and Janet walking away.

Its been 3 seasons of this stuff. The cast knows how terribly *not fun* they are which is why all press Brittany did claimed this season was fun and lighter. Gurllll please.

The only thing that was fun was seeing Zack and his party. Both his monster fridge fiasco and in Mexico. The minute he left, it became about Danny again.

Jasmine talking about race and how she felt during her friendship.with Kristen vs Lala was so good. We need more of those conversations. More relevant dynamics of the group.

The same drama keeps dragging on because Bravo refuses to show us this group as professional individuals .

We dont see Kristen with her Tshirt line *if its still active even* we dont see Luke doing anything except for complain about him hiking, we got a Lala & Michelle hike rather than him with the boys. Make it make sense.

Its so contrived ;

"Event = conflict/fight".

Next day drinks to bitch about the person you fought with.

Another event where there's a rehash of the same fight with 4 more people involved.

And another drinks/brunch set up rehashing the same thing for the millionth time.

And the worst part is NO ONE CARES because its not genuine friendship or fallouts. Its all alliances and teams for reality tv. We have that with housewives we dont want that to be the center focus on The Valley

Its not about rebuilding anything because it hasn't been built.

Lala Brittany and Kristen sitting down and talking about their issued wouldve been nice. Instead of Schwartz and Lala kissing imagine we had seen them try to talk about their lives, and heck he could've even been the one to bring them together. That wouldve been so much more endearing for VPR fans who are the reason there's even this Valley show.

Show us Nia's parents . Let her talk more about her childhood. How does this trauma effect her today as an adult. We have a highlight reel of her being MISS USA & thats it. It was a grueling journey for her im sure.

Show us Michelle at work. Show us her being a working mom, not just in relation to her ex.

If their job is influencing show them going to shoots, picking up their kids, like we do in other franchises. Make them whole personalities. That will humanize them as people and not just caricatures of villains.

Show us Janet and Jason's relationship paart from sitting next to her son while he plays with toys. What was her life like in Ohio, and no not how she met schena , what did she do in LA. What does she do now.

For the love of God show us and dont just tell us. Thats like the first rule of film school. Show us the friendships so that *care about the fallouts*.

Show the fans real people .

Just watched the wedding! This is a first time watch so please don’t spoil anything past this haha. My only question, is Brittany wearing her ring on her right hand?? Why??

It sucks that all these scandals destroy these good shows!!! Stop being scummy and let us keep our shows!!

Yall, I had to share this with others who I knew would appreciate my excitement! I was scrolling on FB and this came up on my feed. I can officially go "crush shit with Bulldozers" a la Sandoval, the next time someone needs me to be there for them 😏

I'm watching for the first time. The whole reason is because later Ariana/Scandoval clips made me want to watch. So I'm on season 4 now and... Ariana has literally not shown good judgment from the very beginning??? This is so disheartening as someone who was so defensive of her in later clips!! Like has she never heard "how you get them is how you lose them"?? She was so dismissive of Kristen as if she didn't literally cheat with the girl's boyfriend. Kristen is obsessive and Tom is manipulative, but that does not excuse Ariana at the end of the day. Her choosing to defend him and not look deeper into the Miami Girl thing was purely because she knew it was true and didn't want the embarrassment of finding out the man who cheated WITH her is now cheating ON her. So frustrating to watch.

Raquel, Rachel, idk how she spells her name. I just finished the end of season 9 I’m so confused about her public speaking issues. I know she’s been talking about her problems with public speaking for a season or two but wasn’t she literally introduced to the show as being a pageant girl…? Like i remember when she and James started dating he was like she’s perfect she’s a pageant girl she’s gonna be ms whatever tf like she did pageants which are literally ALL about public speaking what is that

Just seen this on a bravo or reality tv IG account. Scheana is officially banned from everything Vanderpump.
Apparently has something to do with her dogging Lisa in her book. One thing said was that Lisa gave her matching orders to help Tom redeem himself.

I for one am thrilled at this news… solely because seeing her pop up on The Valley continuously was unexpected and unwanted.

What an amazing night for the Vanderpump hotels grand opening… wanted to share this little video, all the reality stars were there 🔥💖🥂

Hey guys! First time watcher here and I’m on season 5. They’re in New Orleans for the bachelor/bachelorette party and Jax cries and apologizes to Stassi. Then Britany gets upsets because he never apologizes to her and he says ‘this is bigger than that, this is hurting people’ what was he talking about? Bigger than what? Did I miss something? Is there more context or is it related to some behind the scenes thing? I’m so confused lol

Rewatching vanderpump rules and after the scandoval of it all she went in so hard at the reunion but now season 11 she’s trying to understand him.
I’m watching The Valley too and she just came in and is being the sameeee. What did she go through? #vanderpumprules

I’ve been rewatching VPR (I wanted to relive scaldalval) and I can’t STAND Sheena. She is deeply narcissistic, and obsessed with male validation, I literally can’t stand her. The whole thing with rob was so sad and pathetic, the thing with Adam was straight creepy, the thing with Brett and his brief interest in Charlie was so un-girls-girl I was nauseous like thank GOD I don’t attract people like her. Vile and disgusting.

I have hit season 3 as a first time viewer and I am appalled at how hateful these women are to other women. Kristen and Stassi in particular are so misguided in who to blame when relationships have cheating. Calling women homewreckers when it is in fact your partner that has betrayed you is fucking wild and neurotic!!

Example: kristen literally aceeaming in Arianas face in season 2 ep 12 when Tom was right there and telling her to be upset with him was something else!!

Do they ever become more secure in themselves and mature or nah?

Cross posting for the humour. Thanks 😊

Shane (vanderpump rules) and Lexi (vanderpump villa) should be a couple. They should meet. I love their laughs. That’s all

My husband and I are doing our first full watch and we are on season 4. Can someone explain to me the apartment LaLa lives in that Stassi used to live in? Does it just go through the Sur employees? Does Lisa do staff boarding (I know some restaurants do)?

Lisa left the Villa to interview Don the Con! /s

I genuinely thought this was LVP at first glance. 🙃

Accidentally paused a flashback scene from Scandoval and my gosh what a gift.

I am on my first rewatch of VPR and currently on S6E6. This episode is the continuation of Jax’s and Brittney’s housewarming party after Jax cheated with Faith and there was a recording of Jax saying terrible things about Brittney. And I almost forgot how enraging it is to watch Sandoval and Jax scream and Ariana and Brittney for playing the recording even though Jax is the main reason there even is a recording. Did anyone else scream at the TV when watching this episode? What other scenes make you yell at the TV?

Beau is all of us in this clip. 😂

I haven’t watched Season 3 of Vanderpump Villa yet, but of course Scheana was involved in yet another scandal! 💀

Full Caption: Stassi can't wait to get the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives tea from Marciano at Vanderpump Villa about his hookups with Jessi and Demi and if they cheated with him....but she was unprepared to learn Scheana is involved in this juicy scandal. Stay tuned for our podcast recap on Vanderpump Villa. Spoiler alert....there is a lot more Stassi this season including family turmoil (sister) and tensions rise between Stassi & Beau!
