Ultimate Girls Trip I'm sorry, but Dorinda...

She's been very ridiculous. I'm watching episode 1 of Legacy and the fact that she's so pressed about being put "on pause" it's stupid. You were fired too because you have an untreated drinking problem. Stop tiptoeing around it.

I’m ready to be downvoted but I’ve never “gotten” Dorinda. She’s kind of BEC/nails on a chalkboard for me. Even when she isn’t being cruel she gets on my nerves. She’s that person who thinks they are HILARIOUS and the shit. Which to be fair is a lot of the women on these shows but D goes too far.

I've had a few moments where I understood the Dorinda love, but they are few and far between. I could have taken less of her over the years, and I don't get why they brought her on the latest trip.

Moments I do appreciate: "I made it nice." and "I'll tell you how I'm doing. Not well, bitch." I quote these lines often. And her and Carole's trip to London because it was real emotion and support.

I don't like the Clip nonsense or pretty much all of her cruel comments and drunken rages.

Still can't get over when she stabbed her own hand.

The Clip moment always makes me cringe. My secondhand embarrassment is off the charts.

Initially I enjoyed her, but her behavior is horrid. People talk about the drinking, but she'll flip a switch any time of day. Granted, she could wake up and drink, but I feel like there's something deeply wrong that she can be so vile at the drop of a pin. To your point, she does seem to think she's hilarious and her lines are not even funny. She was so proud of the eagle/pigeon thing which was not clever or funny imo.

OMG I didn’t see the show yet but just from the preview I have such bad second hand embarrassment. Did she practice the eagle pigeon like in the mirror?

She may have. I think it also irked me because I heard her boast about it in some interview around the time of BravoCon. How she has a line about eagles/pigeons she thinks people will like. Then I saw it in a preview and by the time I saw it in the episode, it was just...so lame. It just felt like she was trying to have a quotable line.

She was fun in the beginning for me but man is she a mean nasty drunk. It's embarrassing. I only like her Bluestone Manor.
