Yes, more forced relationships....but with the others in the real circle left, they had to fill in somehow.

Lynne---is she even on this earth? Doesn't think her daughters would drink her wine, um lady, your daughter was telling you how to get over a hangover. And trying to shush the established housewives will get you no where, has she ever watched the show? And she looks terrible. She really should show less skin, and just show her shape.

Jeanna---still my favorite. I think I could go out with her, and typically, I wouldn't take Playmates too seriously. It's neat that she has relationships with her exes. After all, there is a reason why you initially loved them. Poor Matt had the brain injury that altered his emotions. Guess she stayed so long because of "for better for worse".

Tamra---she's becoming more despicable by the episode. By setting Gretchen up with that much alcohol is criminal. And her son is no gentleman going after her when she's in such a condition. At least Jeanna was trying to get her to stop drinking.

Gretchen---for a party girl, she was thrown into reality of life with an older gentleman who is terminally ill. She's obviously not dealing with the stress too well, especially by being on a reality show, but to be used like she is by some of the housewives is not justifiable. And by the way, she's absolutely gorgeous, and I love her dinner dresses.

Vicki---my dear, the years are not being kind to you. And even when you go home to Chicago, it's all about you. Your mother told you something important, but I don't think you listened. Why should she visit you when all you do is work? I have family like that...."come visit us" and when you do, you're ignored. Wake up Vicki, you're flying a million miles an hour, but not seeing the scenery.

I love OC, followed by NYC, but couldn't relate too much to Atlanta. But I keep watching because it's just too darn fun.

ETA: Did anyone else see the alcohol disclaimer at the end of the show???? And also, here in the STL area, the show was immediately followed by a commercial from MADD. Cool commercial, by the way.
