The Real Housewives of Atlanta (S16)

[defclubmix]

Oh that footage of the Kenya and Brit scene looked foul

 

[LetsGetToIt]

Yeah, that trailer felt new, and current, unlike the last couple of years.
If they can keep it short, fast and juicy (I'm taking 14 eps and 2 reunion eps), and grab our attention, they could be on to something.

Drew not even getting an intro scene until over half way through. A gag.

I'm with you here. I didn't find this to be the most exciting trailer but it definitely looks like they have enough material for a decent season if they edit it well and don't draw it out too long. I agree that it shouldn't have more than 14 episodes. Keep it tight and focus on building for season 17.

Extremely terrible edited trailer with barely any footage of Phaedra?? How did she even scam a peach or Kenya.. But I'm still radically optimistic.

 

[tyrabnks]

The trailer made me less excited than I was but I will remain cautiously optimistic.

 

[tylerc]

Trailer was incredibly mid and I am sorry but Porsha is not a center peach / carry a season type of legacy housewife.

Looking forward to the newbies and Shamea, as well as Cheekbones.

 

[4Roses]

The trailer was radiating Love & Hip Hop energy. My expectations are on the floor.

Giving her a peach when she only filmed for like two weeks is insane. Kenya will likely be in more episodes than her.

 

[allyshone]

Why does the green screen always look SO cheap?!! It irks me so much.

Erm, the trailer was there. It was giving Porsha & company. NOT a direction I would have chosen to take the show in but hey, I'll give it a few episodes.

 

[huntypoo]

Kenya doing the most interesting thing all season and getting fired for it hmmmT.

 

[VicePresidentJocasta]

I think they had to put Porsha front & center in the trailer because we don't know the other women well enough yet and they're clearly trying not to hype Phaedra up too much until later in the season/likely the mid-season trailer. Outside of that, Kenya is only in a few episodes & Drew is... Drew. So it makes sense that the trailer is heavy on Porsha and then everyone else is sprinkled around her. I totally get people watching it and being underwhelmed, but I think that given everything, this type of trailer should have been expected.

 

[carlos_b_fly]

Pretty underwhelming trailer but they've got a lot of obstacles to work against this season so, it was never gonna be a knockout preview. I don't think ATL can suffer three crap seasons in a row so I'm hoping this is a tight season that gets in and gets out and puts some faith back in the brand.

 

[TeamDorinda!!]

You can tell it’s a quilt season, patched up of whatever they had lying around.

I did laugh at “It was Kenya’s choice to twirl on down to hell”

“and she might not come back up!”

 

[johnny_tsunami]

That trailer was...

an abortion.

 

[defclubmix]

Someone please tell me they fired most of the production team that worked on the previous season cause even the trailer has such a distinctly fake, awful, Joseline's Cabaret-esque look. It's degrading to me (and the show's legacy!). Drewl hiring Dennis is hints of the Cookie Lady fiasco - but at least that season gave us the total disaster that was Yovanna

 

[MC54]

It's a boot for me.

 

[Oceandrive]

Yeah this ain’t it. I’ll be watching!

 

[amtam]

Am i trippin or did they not even bother introducing drew in the trailer lol

 

[popzone]

Their decision to keep Drew is truly baffling. She is an abysmal Housewife.

 

[ohaimanabu]

Am i trippin or did they not even bother introducing drew in the trailer lol

she needs no introduction, full shade

 

[tylerc]

I know they couldn't have predicted Kenya's exit, but losing Atlanta tentpoles Sheree, Kandi, and Kenya alongside the highly divisive but consistent for content Marlo, all in one fell swoop just feels too big to surmount.
