Gina Goes Off on Shannon at ‘Real Housewives of Orange County’ Reunion
BravoRead more of our Real Housewives of Orange County coverage HERE.This past year has seen Bravo scale back on its most highly anticipated staple, the Real Housewives reunion. For a while now, the average reunion has been a three-course meal of shade, tears, and receipts. And ever since that Real Housewives of Atlanta bombshell that had Kandi Burruss screeching “THE LIES! THE LIES! THE LIES!,” sufficiently dramatic Housewives seasons have extended to four.Thankfully, some producer or network executive recently decided that audiences really don’t need to reflect on already-stale storylines for an entire month (and that at least one hour can usually be left on the cutting room floor!). Thus, the latest RHOA reunion was a two-parter, as is the upcoming Real Housewives of New York reunion (which I kind of object to). The Real Housewives of Orange County reunion, which kicked off tonight, is also a two-night event. And based on this mostly laid-back and weirdly polite assembly—aside from Gina screaming “MY CHILDREN!” at the top of her lungs—I understand why.Read more at The Daily Beast.
