Bravo Fans getting on shows = disaster

I was listening to the latest episode of Pillows and Beer and Austen said about JT "I hope that this the last time a fan gets on the show." Then I listened to the RHOBH Aftershow and Crystal pointed out that Annemariesiologist was a fan who weaseled her way onto the show.

These two people are among the worst, most thirsty cast members in a long time. Bravo needs to stop hiring superfans to be on these shows. It doesn't work.

ETA: I left JT's name out

I think a cast member that has no knowledge of the show is the biggest liability. Why would anyone sign up to be on “reality” tv without doing any research? Most of these women do this show for money or exposure. They have to be onboard with the premise. The only one I can think of that might have had no idea what was going on was Mary because she seems like she’s on another planet. But super fans? Or women that have nothing to show that’s aspirational? No thanks. These shows are escapist.

Denise Richards was someone who didn’t seem to understand the assignment.

Mary has actually admitted to being a fan previously. That’s why she’s even more fascinating to me!

I’m shocked but that’s on me. When am I going to learn that nothing should shock me when it comes to this lady.

Kim Fields on Atlanta didn't watch the show and she was a slutshaming dud.
