Can you go the distance?

"This is the good daughter. The prettiest one too."
Real Housewives of Orange County is crawling toward the finish line (THANK GOD). I personally just caught up today*, so I'm primed to watch Gretchen and Lynne throw down over that bag of hair they call Alexa. You'd better watch too, because I'm sure as hell not going to let you give up now. Not when we are so close to the end. You hear me? SUCK IT UP.
*Watch the last 3 episodes on hulu, available for the next 3 days.

the red head is the cutest of the three daughters...
seems like this season has been on for-evah!
I want to smother this show with a goddamned pillow.
I'm ready to move on to RHONYC
THAT BAG OF HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes.
After how many ? seasons, RHOC gets worse every year...can't they just extend Flipping Out and forget these mean bitches???
I kept looking at the clock, longingly: Only 48 more minutes...
(Lots of shots of Lynne's profile; her jaw is positively Leno-esque now.)
I cannot wait to discuss this episode....
Seriously, this was the worst season EVER!
I can't wait to see Bethanny and Jill have their little tiff!
I long to see Kelly's air head moments not to mention those cock-eyed breasts!
Simon's tranny / Herman Munster look alike wife!
And last but not least of course evil shit stirrers, Ramona with her crazy eyes and her bully of the playground husband, Mario!! Poor Avery! She's so down to earth and normal. She has to have some other parental influences in her life to have her turn out this way.
The countess is sooooooooooooooooo boring I don't miss her or her family! Maybe her housekeeper, Rosie I could miss!
Let's go!! Bring on the RHONYC!!
I tried, sgm, I tried. For your sake, I tried to get through the last three epis. I hang my head in shame as I admit I couldn't do it. Sorry! Don't ever need to see any of them or their fake bb's (mine are so much better) ever, ever again!
did i spy plastic fruit in gramma's kitchen?
Wow! Does Lynn get worse looking every week, or is it just me? Last night was just a total train wreck all around. I'm sorry, I kinda still like Vicki the most.
Lynne's chin is the size of fist.
Watching the twits from OC is............................................SO BORING!!!!!!
I didn't get to watch the entire episode, but saw scattered bits. I was left with two thoughts. Gretchen might have a good gig as a Proactive spokeswoman. Now, I'm breaking out as I write this, but then I don't have a cosmetics line to shill for and I understood from the show description that Gretchen does. Poor, poor Lynn: she doesn't look a bit younger to me than she did before the surgery. It all just seems to be falling apart for her. I sure hope her marriage is ok and that lots of people buy her cuffs!
Is it just me, or is Lynne starting to look like Ramoner?
It's like Lynne has an autoimmune disease, where her immune system is starting to attack her face.
um, yea.
i started out with RHOC for decadent, mindless diversion back in ... when did it start? anyway, from the beginning. now? i barely remember to watch it until i come here. they overstayed their welcome by one or two seasons. last season was repetitious enough but this year? BORING. really, i mean we all understand that it's STUPID TV but even so, there's a limit to how much middle-aged, shallow women snarkiness one can watch even if it's just to pass the time whilst folding the laundry. GO into the light Vicki, Lynn, Gretchen (and SLADE, gag), new wife Alexa or Alexis or whatever her name is - I just don't care. And Tamra? Please. She's such a middle -schooler, I can't watch her for another minute. (Hey, perhaps that IS where she left her formal education; she seems emotionally stunted at that developmental level.) I cannot even watch the last episodes on Hulu. I'm waiting for RHNY (and it better not be just a continuation of their little "i don't like yous") and the new venue I hear Bravo's developed. DC? Please, does anyone know if the OC cast is going into forced retirement soon?
um can we discuss the FOUL nature that is Lynne's daughter?
MODG...agreed. And there has been WAY to much focus on that situation.
The best was Gretchen telling Lynn that just because she popped a child out from between her legs doesn't give her the right to parent...um, yes Gretchen, I think that is exactly what that means.
Bravo, please, please enough of this one...let's move on to NY. Although I just checked Kelly's twitter page and my computer froze. Her picture tiled across my screen kinda made me want to throw the computer off the balcony.
SUCK IT UP made me picture we, the idiotic group of RHOC watchers, struggling to pull each other across the finish line of the this painful marathon of a season. Let's put it out of its misery.
I do appreciate that I now know I can always fall back on a career as a Youthologist; Didn't do that correspondence six-week course but did grow up in a fairly dysfunctional family (battlefield experience) and would love to yell at other peoples' kids.
