Hey, everyone — I’m out of the closet! It’s a miracle. After realizing we were the only two here who caught Real Housewives last night, Tanner Stransky and I decided the only way to truly analyze last night’s janky episode was to talk about cake. Press play, below. Tanner’s wearing shades because he’s worried people will recognize him now. Psych! He’s wearing shades because he’s a weirdo.
We’ll obviously keep watching Atlanta because we like dessert so much, but what did you think of last night’s episode? Did the endless plots about Lisa’s spec houses and DeShawn’s potential support staff turn you off, or will you stick around for a potential NeNe vs. Sheree all-out brawl?

I’m waiting for NeNe and Sheree to throw down… now that’s going to be some good TV!
I love this show in a way that is unholy. However, you forgot one wish which would be for Kim to get rid of at least 2 packs of the weave she has in her hair.
I completely befuddled on why that chick needs a staff, she is coming off extremely lazy and she keep saying how busy and important she is…I did google her and wasnt impress
Who is Big papa????? can anyone tell me????
I live in Atlanta, and I was horrified by the previews for this show, thinking OMG, I hope people don’t think most Atlantanx are as shallow, materialistic, and new-money social climbing as these people-however, I now realize that this show is intended to poke fun at the silly antics of the nuveau-pseudo-rich, so bring it on! Can’t wait to see the Nene/Sheree beat down.
that crack about “double-crack”.
That’s it! I can no longer resist the temptation to watch this show. Sorry Scruples. I’m tha-rowin’ you out tha wind-ur. And extra unrelated props to Annie B. for reppin’ Roisin fans! Dear Miami? More like Dear Atlanta!!! What?!
Stop talking over each other for fvcks sake!
please make this a weekly series! hysterical!
I need so much more of that in my life!
PTB @ EW make it happen!!
Any video with a Valerie Cherish shoutout is a video I can support! Nice recap!
Sorry, but I do think the show couldn’t be more ghetto. Some of these women seem materialistic and definitely unable to handle the fact that they have money. NeNe appears to be woman from the hood who can’t talk and lucked up on a rich man to care for her kid and get that pathetic weave done. Deshawn trys so hard to seem important and baffled by the fact that people don’t know her since she’s all over the internet. Give me a break, get a life, and cook and clean for your own kids! Now is it me or are the only way black women can get money is to marry an athlete? It seems that this is what is implied since the other shows had women who were married to executives. And why is there a white girl trapped in a “black girls” body on the show? Were there any black women in Orange County or New York? So why choose to intergrate our show. I’m sorry, but I think the show is terrible and a classic stereoptype of AA women, but its just sad that they don’t see it. (I could go on, but have no room)
Can someone tell me why so few of the Atlanta housewives are not even wives? So why the title of Housewives? Also, I hope to God people don’t view all Atlanta women based on these materialistic bimbos! I am from Atlanta and this show is a joke….watched only as the comedy it is. Reality TV my A$$!
First, there is always good with the ATL girls because they are tacky, un-groomed, athlete chasing GOLD DIGGERS. television doesn’t get any better than this. Let’s begin with the price tags on everything (hello, new money)that’s not classy ladies. Then move to Deshawn. . . she doesn’t even know why she’s hiring her staff. Did you see it on CRIBS Deshawn?? LOL And what’s with the name dropping? can they be anymore hysterical. wow. . . i’m done *giggle* hit you up later. LMFAO
It is nice to hear someone use “I don’t need to see that!” properly. I try to use it, but no one knows why its funny cause they all suck and didn’t watch The Comeback. Great recap! (And yes, Kim’s cleavage was pornographic!)
Oh my word. I stumbled upon this the other night and I must say, it is like staring at an accident scene involving fatalities. I am sickened yet intrigued all at the same. This has to be the tackiest of the three Housewives: pricetags on gaudy bags and outfits, Big Papa, the gold digging, the Escalade (WTF? Thanks Big Papa), security at some squaw’s birthday party, a staff when you have no job (or so it appears-a publicist? A nanny and governess?) and big ole unsupported tatas and cleavage shots…Sadly, I do not think I will be able to help myself when we have a Sunday afternoon marathon….
These women are pathetic. It goes to show that all the money in the world cannot buy class. It is sooo obvious that many of these women aren’t even “rich”. No offense to Atlanta, because it is a great city, but the Cost of Living in Atlanta does not even compare to other areas of the country such as the OC, NYC, SF, etc. Therefore, it’s takes less to live, especially out in the burbs. Case in point, Nene, Lisa, et al…their houses I could afford today if I lived in Atlanta and I’m only a 27 year old making between 150-200k yr. By no means and I rich and I have a long WAY to go before I could even call myself rich. I read someonewhere else that this Kim character…yes character…is dating a MARRIED real estate tycoon in the Ga area. His name appeared in her phone (text messages that read missing you and miss you) during the second episode when she was outside phoning NeNe. I guess she’s busted. It’s very sad that being a gold digger and dating MARRIED men are all she has to show her
Can someone also tell me if why aren’t there any women on this show that made their OWN money????????? All the other shows had women that made at least some of their own money.
Leave these women alone.
You can call them what you want but at the end of the day you’re being considered as a hater!!
Call them getto, tacky,exc.
Who cares they are women who are strong and who have money.lol
I love this show regaurdless of what ppl have to say!!!

I read the blogs and posts of this show on a daily basis. It is sad that many think that us, the people who think negatively on the show, are hating on these women because of their lifestyle. Not!!! People must understand why we feel the way we do. With the economy being the way that it is..many do not care to see someone showboating. I do not like people who are like that at all. Whether they are rich or not. I do not like a bragger. What you do will show, no need to speak on it. Most who are use to luxury do not care about bragging about it. You all should go to sandrarose.com and go to the previous pages at the bottom until you see the post. There radio interview, on the phone, all they did was make excuses and saying that the black community was not embracing their behavior. I agree with most who feel the same way I do. It is a disgrace.
I am from Georgia and extremely embarrassed by the representation of our state! The ladies are tacky, classless and down right ghetto! Having money doesn’t make a person classy.
They are so trashy, arrongant. It seeems like they wake up everyday with only one purpose in life and that is to outdo the other housewive. All they do is spend their husbands money. One can see who wears the pants in their families. While the entire world is going through a economic crisis they spend their money on expensive cars, jewellery. I blv. that all these rich people who spend like there is no tomorrow are in for a goodf surprise on judgement day.
Kim should have been getting her dry, hard looking blonde weave fixed instead of buying that Escalde. I don’t know who told her she should have been a black woman.Cause sweety we keeps the weave tight. As for Big Papa he black and married with his own family. So yes Kim is a high priced ***** with no respect for herself or her kids.
Kim is not 29yrs old and she smokes so that adds ten years on to her age. How old is she really????
Yeah it was super funny when Kim said she was 29! Did you hear how fast she said it! I had to rewind that one on my tivo. NeNe is hood but extremely real. She is far from a fake chick andat least you know what your getting. The best thing Kim has going for her is the big poppa mystery! Poor Sheree she has no clue. Did she used to be a man?
HAHAHAHAHA I can’t stop laughing at the 27-year-old who says she can afford the houses the housewives live in! Riiiight…
A few thoughts:
1. If Kim is 29, I am the Queen of England.
2. What kind of bet did Dallas Austin lose????
3. NeNe is the best Real Housewife of all time. Love, love, love her. More , please.
4. If there is justice in this world, Sheree’s husband will bankrupt her in that divorce settlement. Good lawd, that woman is awful.
5. Who is Kim’s boyfriend, and when will his wife find out about that Escalade?
6. The wives of professional athletes make the Real Housewives of Orange County look like trailer park residents. That’s why this is the best Real Housewives ever.
Damn, I forgot the most important one!
7. Don’t be Tardy for the Party!!!
Big Poppa is Scott Steiner, former professional wrestler “Big Poppa Pump”. They have been seen together many times in “Atlanta” recently.
Yes, I admit it……I am addict to this show too…..It is tacky and interesting all at the same time. Everyone needs to be famous and noticed while spending money. The sad factor to all these woman …..is the need to display false wealth in this manner. I dont think Oprah has a five person staff in her home…..So Deshawn needs to get a clue. I love NeNe.
