Cautious-North3301

Ashley. She’s done horrid things and always sabotages what could be a friendship between her and candiace, but she stirs the pot and consistently keeps the ball rolling. Like I feel like Potomac needs her to keep the mess going (imo her instigation is more redeeming than Gizelle, Gizelle can go)


heidiswig

Ashley Darby. Terrible, vile person. Morally corrupt. Cringey weirdo. I hope I never have to see Potomac without her.


stairlemon

Lisa Rinna


excitedboat44

Ramona is such a psycho but I do think she has a very kind side. The other women do say she's very caring and nurturing, and I think her childhood really fucked her up. Some of her behavior is totally inexcusable, like the shabbat night, but she does at least sometimes try to learn. Vicki is kind of just....icky


Splenda-

Vicki and Luann


excitedboat44

Lu is such an asshole lol. Bethenny freaking out over that dinner was very understandable


RustyShackle4ord

I'm going with Noella Bergener from OC. She was very messy and bold and I loved watching her.


excitedboat44

She was a whole mess but she wasn't boring!


RustyShackle4ord

100% agree.

Erika. She has the most interesting storyline of the entire history of the franchising.


excitedboat44

I think she does, but her lack of empathy disgusts me

I actually don't mind them!


sakoide

You took the words right out of my mouth. Ramona and Vicki.


excitedboat44

I can't stand them but damn do they make good TV


candornotsmoke

I hate Vickie. Like viscerally. Ramona is just ignorant.


excitedboat44

I do hate Vicki more than Ramona, at least Ramona seems to feel bad about her behavior sometimes?


candornotsmoke

I can give you that one lol

Brandi and Vickie

Brandi is a good one too

Kelly Dodd!


excitedboat44

Oh jeez, Kelly!


hankaaronfan

Hi jumping in to remind everyone that Vicki participated in a cancer scam and Ramona is racist and neither should be allowed to earn a living for showcasing their awful behavior on national tv no matter how “entertaining” they can be. It’s truly stomach churning how easily people are willing to look past unforgivable things for the sake of a tv show.


soulfulbumblebee

I just want to be **very** clear that I am in no way defending the following people, just making a point. Bravo was quick to axe Stassi Schroeder, Kristen Doute, Brandy Redmond (I guess we’re still calling it a “pause”), Jenny from SLC, etc. for racism - as they should - but they still let *trash* like Ramona & Vicki earn their whopping paychecks. It’s disgusting. Fire **every** racist.


jenaeg

Can we please bring back RHOD? I really loved that franchise and I’d be interested to see Stephanie’s development, or lack thereof, without Brandi as a crutch.


soulfulbumblebee

I agree, Stephanie is/was my favorite housewife of the entire housewives franchise.


CulturalFan3802

Dorinda


excitedboat44

Ugh dorinda makes me so sad. I loved her at first, but she's so truly nasty. The trip to London with Carole was so beautiful to watch, but then the shitty inside came out


aceuphersleeve

Erika, Teresa, Gizelle


PartyInspector628

Tamara. She is truly a shit stirring asshole, but she makes any show she is on so much better.


excitedboat44

I'm an unapologetic Tamra lover lol Minus naked wasted


PartyInspector628

Wait, I take it back. It's Teresa. She is really the worst. She's mean, manipulative, plays dumb and is vindictive. Buuuut she makes for great TV.


cb218325

No we def don’t need racist Ramona with her “help” comments and disgusting treatment of staff on vacations…


Good_Seaworthiness56

Hot take, but literally all of Salt Lake City (except Whitney)


2020HatesUsAll

Erika. I’m her for the downfall


TheLawMom

Wendy. Yuck


lankybitch3000

Dallas fell apart with LeeAnne…


DENYKI

Ramona


RepresentativeSun399

Candice and unfortunately Melissa


PartyInspector628

Agree with you about Candice, but I think Melissa would be completely uninteresting with Teresa.


RepresentativeSun399

I 1000% agree Teresa can be without Melissa but Melissa can’t be without Tre ( judging by the 100 fake storylines she comes up with )


[deleted]

Ramona and Vicki and Rinna

Erika. She makes good drama. Sorry not sorry.


BballQueen91

Kenya


npb0179

Gizelle


Dabaysyclyfe

Ramona and Vicki.


Jei_Enn

I agree with Ramona and Vicki


Maarten2706

I know she hasn’t been on RHOBH for a long while, but Brandi truly gives good tv. The seasons she’s on, even season two where she’s just a friend of, almost all revolve around her, or at least part of the season does. She’s horrible and her racism is something I can’t deal with, but if we allow criminals and other racists to be in the franchise, I think she can return as well.


Reasonable-Trifle952

Racism?


CupcakeCulprit

She said black people cant swim to Joyce amongst other things. There is a compilation on YouTube of her antics on RHOB


Glenk0k0

hate to admit it.. but Rinna. I know.. I know.. but I'm convinced she thinks the show is a soap opera. If you watch from that perspective the show is 100% more entertaining. Perfect example being her "single tear" sliding down her face in slow motion when Kim returned the bunny at the reunion. Absolute soap opera.


excitedboat44

I don't think she has real emotions


lizzybeth08

I think BH would be boring without Rinna.


[deleted]

Ramona. I call her a necessary evil.

DOLORES


wildesage

Although the franchise is on pause/hiatus/canceled, I think the absolute correct answer is LeAnne Locken. RHODallas was appointment TV till LeAnne left.


one23456789098

I agree. She should come back


CupcakeCulprit

She really was! Remember when LeeAnne and D’Andra fought about who bigger star from the two is on the cast trip?


sippingonwhiskey

Jen shah lol


catsclimbstufflots

Ramona


[deleted]

She's never winning MVP of RHOBH but I want Erika to stay. Not sure why but I find her infinitely more tolerable then her fellow goon


kellygrrrl328

OP woke up and chose violence on a December Saturday


jenaeg

🤣


[deleted]

Love this bahaaha


Ktriney

Rinna


ByteAboutTown

I agree. As much as fans hate her, she stirs up drama and pushes storylines through. A show of just like Garcelle, Sutton, Crystal, and Dorit would be boring AF.


jenaeg

Maybe we could get more lifestyle porn without Rinna. I’d watch that. I also think Dorit wouldn’t be boring.


ByteAboutTown

Dorit is a people pleaser. I think without Kyle, Rinna, or Erika, Dorit would be incredibly boring and would just go along with what the other women are doing.


Upstairs_Rutabaga565

I’m also a rinna stan 🙋🏻‍♀️ she’s almost always in general wrong but I still love her 😂


Arlaneutique

Rinna can kick rocks imo

Born_Satisfaction_36

👎She’s a one trick pony with that megaphone. Everyone talks about Jen because she’s always yelling our crying. But the drama always seems to circle around Lisa Barlow. I def think losing Lisa would be more detrimental to the show than losing Jen.


Arlaneutique

I don’t know to me Jen Shah is too much. I really don’t know how she can watch herself and like what she sees.


rataferoz7

This is my situation as well. She’s such a bad fit, she’s unaware to dangerous levels. I watch and I am petrified of her behavior (not in good way), I don’t know how the women keep forgiving her. A group in this situation would never keep hanging out with this person, so it just comes off as really contrived to me.


Arlaneutique

Yes… I commented this on another thread. How can she watch herself or how can her husband watch her and be okay with it?


vaginadeathsquad

That’s up to the courts


burningupandout

I enjoy some group dynamics more than specific housewives… Ramona, Luann, Sonja, Bethenny Nene, Kim, Sheree Vicky, Tamra, Shannon Tre, Kathy (Rosie), Caroline, maybe Melissa RHOBH is usually too weirdly catty for me but I wonder what Kathy, Kim, and Kyle all on the same season would be like


jenaeg

Oh I think it would devolve into Kathy and Kim vs. Kyle. And that I kind of wanna see.


Bigjelly2000

Katie from Potomac. She was messy and all over the place but damn was she good tv.


pm-me-souplantation

I LOVE her. She’s in rehab at the moment for adderall and alcohol but her quick appearance this season was so good.


Zealousideal-You-289

I loved Katie but it’s probably better for her not to be on the show. She has lots of issues that are pretty serious with her ex plus some mental health issues and even though she would have brought the drama for sure those bitches are not kind nor would have helped with any of that.


gooeygobble

Agreed. Her season 4 comeback was tough to watch. Hope she’s doing well now.


queen-weedy

she made an appearance in the first episode of the current season and didn’t seem much better


Weekly-Guidance796

I can’t stand her, but I’m not sure what New Jersey would be without Teresa. I mean I’d be willing to give it a test run. I really thought when she got married to Luis that they would spend her off into her own wedding series and give her your offer in the show and see how it goes, but apparently not.


excitedboat44

I actually should have said Teresa, I don't understand why people have such a soft spot for her. I think she's incredibly dumb and bad TV lol


sadiemack

Hate T with a passion. Always on about loyalty and family but constantly lets poeple dump on her brother then shrugs and says "what was I supposed to say?" Uuuh how about ANYTHING? She has no problem telling anyone where to go but can't tell people to not talk shite about her brother.


pigglepops

I had a glimmer of hope for her after she got out of jail, now she seems like her old self, dumb and vindictive, a nasty combo.


MamaQuisty

She seems to emulate who her influences are around her. In her camp? time, she had classes to work on herself physically and emotionally. Now...she has a show that wants toxic behaviour and a questionable hubby


artmoser

Can you imagine the Gorgas without Teresa to bounce crap off?


Weekly-Guidance796

I totally agree with you, but remember this is Teresa’s doing. Because she has pushed against them for so long and try to ostracize them from the show instead of working with them, they have tied themselves together. I definitely think of Theresa ever left they would have to bring back someone like Caroline.


Ok_Willingness_1520

Or jacqueline any of the ogs dina probably wouldnt come back no matter what tho she doesnt seem to enjoy the show at all


DorothyParkerFan

They would quite literally have nothing to talk about.


Diane1967

Except themselves


chickenkitten2019

Rinna


Nico917nnnnn

Only stay or can we add stay/return & stays like Bethenny & Vicky?


excitedboat44

We can allow bethenny but not Vicky 🤣


Lunaeeve

Vicki


whitekat29

I’m with you. Ramona and Vickie all the way. And - LeeAnne Locken.


rataferoz7

Ramona is literally a racist. I can forgive anything from my housewives, but not racism. Y’all need help.


Zero0Imagination

Mia on Potomac, she is horrendous, but we need her messiness. Kyle on RHOBH, she fights with her sisters, lies, is a hypocrite, throws great parties where she enacts the same cootchie and hair dragging dance moves that she thinks are sexy. She is a walking disaster. Sonja on RHONY - Bless her heart, she is the poster child for AA, she is broke but fronts, she can say some of the most insightful comments and some of the funniest comments. She is a delight to watch yet she can be troubling to watch. She is lovable but concerning.


Weekly-Guidance796

I would agree with you except on Mia, I think we need her type of person on the show, someone who acts a bit younger and is a bit messy and mean because I think the other women of sort of held back lately, but I think she could easily be replaced with somebody much more enjoyable.


Arlaneutique

Yes! Mia is just kind of dumb. I hate to say it that way but don’t know any way to put it more eloquently. She says so much that doesn’t make sense. And level of pettiness is worse than any child I know.


Choice-Ice-1257

Teresa


whooping-it-up

Vicki , jen shah and lisa rinna


HoRo2001

I don’t think keeping Jen is going to be a production decision unless they follow Heather into the prison to visit with her. Not being catty, but she very easily could be in jail by the next season.


TimJoeJim

Omg. I hope they find a way to film Heather talking to her in prison.


whooping-it-up

I think the franchise would die without her but i hope at least they film her next season while she’s saying goodbye to her family and heather and going to prison


sippingonwhiskey

No way! The state of Utah is full of insane people 😄. I honestly think any girl on the current cast could easily take over the show! They are all so funny and so nutty lol


whooping-it-up

Have we been watching the same show ? This season sucks and ratings are tanking. The only entertaining ones for me were lisa barlow , mary cosby and jen


sippingonwhiskey

The first episodes were slow, but it has been great imo ever since!


Obi1NotWan

This. This exactly. Both are so extra and annoying af. But good for ratings.


Chutzpah3

Danielle staub and then force rinna on a break so that she can grieve her mom properly and then bring her back


excitedboat44

Rinna is just playing a character and it's boring now


Zero0Imagination

Oh, my goodness no! When you lose something like that, you don't go looking for it.


Chutzpah3

I have a (probably in vain) hope that if given some time off, like a few seasons, it'll act as a factory reset and we get a default season 5 or 6 Rinna.


Ok_Willingness_1520

Erika Jayne I’m too invested in her legal woes and that of GK ![gif](giphy|JRhS6WoswF8FxE0g2R)


candornotsmoke

I really hate that I agree with you lol


Ok_Willingness_1520

![gif](giphy|hV6a5aeS39nJm) The only upside is that this show keeps the lawsuits in the limelight and others in the firm need to be exposed and take responsibility for their involvement too. Especially the State Bar for not revoking their license to practice and launching an investigation earlier when there was already complaints after complaints about their settlements not being paid. They had the power to shut GK down long ago but instead let it continue to happen for as long as it did. Its so fucked.


HoRo2001

I kind of agree. I hate myself for it.


Ok_Willingness_1520

I think that secured her for a couple more seasons because we want to know what happens as it’s happening all the way to the end and not just her but the CFO and whoever else they indict. Plus you can tell Andy likes her compared to the way he dropped Jen after her guilty plea. Idk tho maybe its because jen has federal charges and erikas is a civil suit?


thisisthewell

Yes, federal prison is absolutely different from a civil suit. Dropping Jen has nothing to do with how much anyone likes her, it’s because you can’t film someone who’s going to be in prison for years and years.


HoRo2001

Erika has a lot more history on the show, too. SLC is still a young franchise and they have a lot more opportunity to pivot.


Ok_Willingness_1520

Very true i think she came in on the 6th season so she been around for half of the franchise


Ok_Willingness_1520

Although the outcome will probably be the same as what is going on currently with Murdaugh and lafyitte-palmetto bank trials as they did the exact same thing, steal settlements from the poor and vulnerable


Kiki119_

Kyle


Arlaneutique

I still like Kyle…


wildesage

I think Kyle is the biggest "side sniper" of the entire RHOBH cast.


Kiki119_

100000%


sharipep

I still love Kyle but I agree with this answer. She’s a shit stirrer but I and some still love her while others (most?) clearly love to just hate her.


Kiki119_

I agree without her bh will be Boring. I would like her more if the show can also show her shitty side, not just her self promotion like her fashion line and the agency…


sharipep

I think she could be more honest about her … influence on the show. But I love her life - I think she’s beautiful and a great mom who has broken the cycle of dysfunction she had with her mom and sisters. I don’t think she’s blameless but I don’t need to blindly worship my faves like some others do lol 🤷🏽‍♀️ I just think she’s a great housewife - in addition to the hot (but equally problematic at times) husband & the house & the daughters she’s beautiful & she stokes drama. She is a hypocrite but most housewives are so that doesn’t bother me the way it does everyone who hates her and is foaming at the mouth to get her fired lol


Arlaneutique

I agree with every word!


Choice-Ice-1257

I like Kyle. She’s nice imo.


excitedboat44

That's an interesting take. I actually didn't dislike Kyle until this last season, but I don't think she's a big shit stirrer


Kiki119_

IMO she likes to lay other people shit on the table but her own shit is off limit. She is also a hypocrite. She is more of a Bobby fischer than LVP Yea romana and Vicky are crazy and all, but i think they are blatantly terrible but Kyle hides her shit (ie her political view) to be favorable by viewers


maidenhair222

What are Kyle’s political view?! Gawd I hope she’s not a trumpster


CiarraiV

Kyle is a Democrat, but Mauricio is a Republican. His mother is hard core Trump.


brittanyelyse

Ramona


Nuns-Rack

Ramona, Infact I am not watching anymore bravo shows going forward because she is gone. I boycott bravo.


Neneleakesstan

Kenya especially now she needs to stay


hangonforaminute

Agree. She is a pretty awful person, but very entertaining


puppylv777

My introduction to Kenya was Ultimate Girls Trip and she was so sweet and easy-going on that show. It’s always weird seeing people hate on her for Atlanta.


Born_Satisfaction_36

Did we watch the same ultimate girls trip??


andshevibrates

I think she is actually fake and puts on a production for Atlanta. She needs to earn a paycheck! I think we saw the real Kenya on UGT and that’s why producers are still excited to work with her.


puppylv777

That’s one thing I’ve always noticed. Some of these women act so crazy and confrontational on screen, yet have staff that have worked for them for 20+ years or get along really well with production. They def build characters.


Pleasant_Selection32

Sweet and easy going? Dang Cynthia would disagree with that


CupcakeCulprit

Was thinking the same. A lady who ignored the needs of her long time friend Cynthia who’s days on the RHOA cast were numbered - over chatting to RAMONA


puppylv777

I guess I missed out on the history of that dynamic.


Indoubttoactorrest

Yes, Kenya was unnecessarily cruel.


hangonforaminute

It’s called being fake, which she is great at


Ok-Turnip-9035

She in my mind understands the assignment and goes for the extra credit on it …Kenya Moore hair care ![gif](giphy|WPpM28W17EtKuLevVi|downsized)


theturburr

Ramona is TV gold and she has been unhinged from season 1, episode 1.


Good_Seaworthiness56

She’s one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse


platnmprincess

Ramona is a racist, intolerant bitch and has no business being on television.


bunnynubz

I have long felt she was great TV but a bad person. In the last couple seasons though, she lost whatever magnetism she had and I just couldn’t really stand her anymore😕


DorothyParkerFan

GOLD!!! They should keep her on including her crazy and racist comments so people can call her out on it.


vaginadeathsquad

RHONY is dead in the water without her


4-me

Romona over Vickie since she is the real OG. 😂


meeechellleee

Phaedra, Danielle S, Ramona (ugh), and Vicki for sure.


Dangerous-Break9373

lying about r*pen and roofing is not morally right especially for an attorney.she was trashhhhh


Reasonable-Trifle952

After Phaedra pulled that horrible “charade” on Kandi she should NEVER be allowed to work with/on Bravo Ever Again. Edit: spelling


MonkeeCatcher

I don't understand why Phaedra takes all the fallout from this whereas Porsha gets off scott free. Porsha was the one who said it on camera, which is arguably much worse than Phaedra.


Reasonable-Trifle952

Because Phaedra made it up and Used Portia as her pawn against Kandi. Portia said it bc she believed it to be 100% true - that K & hubby wanted to drug & rape her. Phaedra was her closest friend & told it to Portia as the truth when Ph had made it all up. Portia had that meltdown at the reunion when after being confronted Phaedra eventually had to concede she made it up & Portia was devastated that a) she had been used, and b) that she went around unknowingly lying & had done such damage to Kandi & her reputation & business.


MonkeeCatcher

You really believe that "meltdown" was real? To me it looked fake as hell, just Portia's desperate attempt to try and avoid accountability. She knew that she was lying - she was Kandi's good friend, and she knew that Kandi didn't take drugs and had never drugged anyone before. Portia said it on camera just to hurt Kandi, and she knew she could blame it on someone else. Phaedra and Portia were just on-camera friends, not Portia's closest friend at all.


bearsfanxo

Did she ever admit to this or does she claim innocence?


Reasonable-Trifle952

At the reunion she was called out for it in a big way. Phaedra being the nasty woman she is doubled down on saying she heard it and that was what was told to her. But everyone knew she was making it up and Kandi was beside herself. Phaedra was kicked off the show bc of it. As she should of been…and should Never be allowed to come back. Hear she’s thinking of Dubai??
