That said, I did not learn anything that I needed to know during this hour.
This season of RHOBH did not necessitate a three-part reunion special.
Im sorry, it did not.
During the first episode of this reunion we got to talk about what everyone was wearing.
During the last episode we got to talk about the new behind-the-scenes footage of the reunion itself.
During this episode what is left to talk about?
Whether or not Lisar was scared when she was on a runaway horse?
(She will.)
This third part was as superfluous as another bottom at Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Blacks baby shower.
But, alas, we are here.
We are here and there was some talking and bitching and toasts with Champagne in beer steins because Germany.
That seems excessive but after having observed Kyle for these past eight years, that totally tracks.
Lisa is always the one talking her down from the ledge.
But if Lisa didnt enjoy that role, they wouldnt be nearly as close as they are today.
This dynamic seems to be what was at the root of the fight this season between Kyle and Lisa.
We also learned that Kyle hasnt talked to her sister Kathy for six months for a variety of reasons.
Kyle says that once Kathy sees the show and sees that its not that bad shell come around.
I dont disagree with her.
Im sorry, but that is a little too close to home.
It didnt read well, but neither did a lot of the things that Erika said at the reunion.
She should claim that and apologize for it so that we can all move on.
But Erika is not blameless in this scenario either.
Like she said, by the end of the episode, you cant treat everyone the same way.
Erika needed to temper herself more with Teddi and its on her that she never did.
They also each think that the other is doing this intentionally, when its clear that they didnt.
This isnt so much a fight as just two misaligned perspectives.
This really seemed like couples therapy though.
If Erika and Dorit can make up after Pantygate, I dont see why these two cant move forward.
Lisa asked, at the beginning of the episode, how you win with this group.
If there is one thing I have learned about the Housewives, its that you never will.
