The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City (S5)

If they keep Britani, they need to get her to film a scene next season with the original Salt Lake cringe queen...
 
This cast has perfected the art of a group scene. They just know how to work multiple threads into a scene so that the heavy lifting is not left to just one person and it’s a scream.

The core four of Lisa, Meredith, Heather and Whitney are all capable of being an anchor, whilst Mary and Angie are having some of the best Housewives seasons ever and Bronwyn being a seamless addition.

The camp scene followed by Mary’s scene with Robert Jr just reminds me why I love the franchise so much and the range of emotions it can take you on.

This was really long winded way of saying this is the best show on TV and Angie K and Mary have stolen my heart!

IVE MISSED YOU SISTER
 
Catching up on last week, and I understand Mary is going through it with her son…but how is Meredith supposed to know what’s going on when Mary didn’t even seem to grasp the full scale of the issue until they had their sit down? Meredith may have stormed out of her house, but Mary doesn’t exactly know how to handle conflict either.

Even in her flop season, Mother still provides. “We make fun of impairments now, wow”. nfnaidjwns

Mary did nothing wrong in that moment. She put her hand up to Angie too, yelling at her to stop while she was going at it with Meredith. I don't know why, but Meredith has a real problem with Angie. Her reaction to anything Angie does is entirely disproportionate. Excluding her from a cast trip last year felt more like bullying than what Bronwyn did with Heather, who was given every chance to pop along even though Bronwyn clearly wasn't keen on her behaviour.

I’m not even talking about the storm out. I’m talking about Mary claiming Meredith isn’t her friend because she doesn’t know what’s going on in her life when…clearly none of the women did and Mary wasn’t even aware of how bad things had gotten at the time.

Don't you think though that she should have spotted something wasn't right? I know when there's something troubling my friends. Maybe Meredith and Mary are just 'tv friends' and aren't that close?

I mean, they probably are dd. But then I don’t understand why Mary is holding her to this standard. And not for nothing, but Meredith did clock that something bigger was going on. She said so repeatedly in the episode and asked Mary herself. I just don’t think Mary was ready to discuss it/didn’t fully know how bad it was.

I feel like I'm always posting in here to defend Meredith. I need to stop hahahaha!

But, I do think the editors have left out scenes with Meredith and Angie getting along, which I get, because there are bigger storylines at play, but when Angie was telling her husband something along the lines of, "I've been enjoying Meredith lately, I'm going to invite her to the house", the viewers have totally missed how they even got to a point where Angie would say that. So in not showing us those moments (you can see them chatting often in the background on the cast trips), I think it helps to paint the picture that Meredith is the only one with issues and Angie is constantly being dragged back into their past beef, which is definitely partly true, but I just don't think Angie is totally blameless in their stalemate.

They clearly operate two very different ways, and if Angie actually wanted to smooth things over and dead their beef, then she should know by now how to get there with Meredith, but screaming at her across a table and calling her miserable and always saying Meredith tries to "expose" people is not the way to do it - she knows this and yet she keeps doing it. I think the real tea is that they both use each other for drama.

Anyway, I think they could be a hilarious duo. I both want them to get over the Shawn stuff... quickly (which again, was 90% Monica's doing ffdfdsfa)
