Last night (5 September 2011) was the premiere of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and it's on the heels of the recent suicide of Taylor's husband Russell. Before the show began they showed the ladies and one husband (Kyle's) at one of the housewive's house to discuss the tragedy. I cant remember if Lisa's husband, Ken, was there or not. This particular taping took place on 29 August 2011. Now, I may be talking out of line right now, but I have to say I didn't think it was necessary nor did I feel it was real. This season of the show had already been filmed and set for air when Russell took his life. Bravo stated they were going to edit the show and thus push back the premiere date. They may have edited the show, but the premiere date was on target.
I can't really explain the pre-show show because I wasn't paying attention. As mentioned it found it unnecessary and unreal. They could have just started the show with the disclaimer that the show was filmed before Russell's death. The coming together of the women and some of the men and their feelings on the tragedy could have been saved for the reunion show. I think it would have been best served there. Again, I can't explain why I feel this way. It's just something I feel.
The premier of season two had Adrienne hosting a dinner party and all the lady's were invited. Before the dinner party they showed Adrianne preparing for it and for some reason, getting into arguments with her husband. Season one showed those two arguing but it was all in fun. You could tell that their arguments weren't that serious, but the opener this season seemed to focus on it. It was if they are trying to make Adrienne and her husband the problem couple for this season. Whatever. On to the dinner party.
Taylor made the comment that her and her husband are seeing a therapist. Lisa's husband Ken said that people who see therapist are week people. MISTAKE! Taylor took it to mean that Ken was saying she is weak. Per usual, shed got the hurt look on her face and ran off to the bathroom. Kyle being the person she is, ran off behind Taylor to make sure she was OK. A few minutes later Lisa goes to the restroom and catches Taylor talking with Kyle about Ken's remark. Lisa feels that Taylor is manipulative and spins stories to her liking to get people on her side. Lisa leaves the restroom and goes back to the table. Taylor and Kyle arrive shortly thereafter. Taylor expresses how she felt about Ken's remark and he apologises to her.
That was basically it of that show. The previews of the season didn't show Russell in any of the scenes but it did show some lady named Brandy who seems to have an issue with both Taylor and Kim. One scene showed Kim and Brandy getting into a physical confrontation. We will see how the season plays out.
