r/RHOMiami

I am so sad that Miami is not returning.

I miss watching Larsa and Lisa fighting last season. The two most vapid shallow self-obsessed housewives on any of the franchises, barely able to make sentences of more than 3 words while screaming at each other, interrupting each other, not forming any strong convincing arguments… ugh it was wonderful. Beautiful. One blonde, the other brunette. Both of their names being L-sa so that when they were screaming each other’s names it seemed to rhyme. Mirror images of each other. Two Instagram filtered plastic bags of hot hair repeating the same things on loop, it was like they weren’t talking to each other, just at each other, or perhaps to a wall, or to themselves. A true art form of brainlessness.

I could watch those two argue about nothing forever. I’ll miss them.

So maybe I am delulu but it feels like Miami truly is not dead. Part of me does wish that despite this second pause, they had included someone like Alexia or Adriana in the main cast. But the fact that there's a stop for Miami (but Salt Lake City which is active didn't get one), but none for Dallas (which is also paused). I know Ayan for example is making an appearance for some Dubai representation. But despite the lack of a Miami housewife, they have included iconic moments from Miami, even one (so far) from the most recent season. So could it truly mean that they do want to bring it back? Who knows, but the fact that they're acknowledging it from all the "paused" cities says a lot!

Why does she not just leave him? She's beautiful and semi nice. 🤣 But seriously, no woman should be treated like that, I hope s gf e doesn't marry him!

*some can stay....

I love this cast with my whole heart and always will. Alexia, Marysol, Adriana, Lisa, ugh.... my day ones. But I really do think that if RHOM were to come back, there needs to be a brand new cast. Here is my (short) argument broken down by housewife:

Alexia Nepola

Unfortunately, she gave me the ick re Todd moving out in front of Frankie which SUCKS because she was my girl. That was calculated, evil, and staying with a man that does that to your disabled child is.... a choice. Very male-centered and it's honestly only good television for a season or two. After that, it becomes exhausting. I'm at the point where literally nothing would surprise me anymore. So much for little Ms. Strong Woman Take No Sh*t all for her to just end up taking all of Todd's sh*t. Very much do as I say, not as I do. I don't like that. She has lost the plot and her backbone.

Larsa Pippen

Larsa, they can never make me like you. Literally ever. She's a tough watch, primarily because her face doesn't MOVE. GO GIRL. GIVE US NOTHING. Contributes nothing to the show and I will die on that hill.

Julia Lemigova

Speaking of people who contribute absolutely nothing to the franchise! The Haitian Mortician™ line would have never blessed our lives without her, so I'll give her that SINGULAR ounce of credit. Boring. Tomato. Boo.

Adriana de Moura

Of course, she must follow. I personally have never liked her since the early early seasons, but she never bothered me. I just never resonated with her and found her just "eh". No beef with her, but I think there's no story line with her anymore. Pass the torch. Also girl PLEASE pass on the AI and FaceTune Hollywood 5 Smooth Skin Filter on maximum setting I BEG OF YOU.

Lisa Hochstein

Sigh... I have such a soft spot for her. I truly don't believe she deserved any of what she went through with Lenny and I will forever die on the hill that he genuinely deserves prison time. He is so I Hate My Wife core. Lisa did nothing but love him unconditionally and raise their kids with genuine love and adoration. And what she went through to have them???? Lisa I love you forever and ever and ever. She's going through it and the back and forth between Lenny and her and Jody is a result of many endured years of emotional abuse from her marriage IMO. Honestly, and this may very well be super biased and I am not denying it lol. If we let one OG stay, it should be Lisa. The mugshot fiasco alone would have made a phenomenal season, let's be real. But from a caring and loving perspective, I think she needs a break from reality TV to focus and center on herself. Silver lining to Andy sacking this season is that it forces Lisa into a form of healing. All this to say though, how many seasons can you drag on her and Lenny, you know?

Guerdy Abraia

God, I love Guerdy. No notes. Impeccable. I would argue to keep her. But I doubt she would want to come back. I don't blame her.

Kiki Barth

She reminds me of Dr. Nicole in the "girl whatever" kind of way she handles things, and I mean that SO positively. She lets none of these women get to her and she's so real for that. But it doesn't make great Housewife television. Now, you give Kiki her own show and I'm SAT.

Stephanie Shojaee

I was born and raised in Miami with lots of family who are developers. Big time developers. Developers that would see her daily and come right back to my house after work, if you catch me. I'll spare you the details (unless you guys specifically want them, chismosas), but the gag is, she was allegedly, for legal reasons, Masoud's mistress. There is a reason why she is so far removed from many parts of her family. Additionally, she has no friends. Telling.... She also doesn't do anything. Like at all. It's a façade. All of it. Allegedly. New money with bad style and desperate to stay relevant. I'm bored. Yawn.

Marysol Patton

Baby, I can't keep defending you anymore. I CAN'T. I love her to pieces, but she needs rehab. Or another outlet that's HEALTHY. She's made her entire personality this "cockies" thing and I just can't do it anymore. It's old. There's also no storyline with her. I'm so happy she and Steve are doing well and maybe she's better? But I'm 110% convinced that if we bring her back, she's jumping right into the alcoholic trope again. I also thought that her hiring a PI on Nicole was where I started getting icked out with her because that was.....psychotic, for lack of a better word.

I'm excited to hear you guys chime in. This is a safe space to discuss. I love discourse and I think everything is nuanced. I'm okay with being wrong! I CAN change my mind lol.

Is Dorinda on pause too ???

Even if they bring back Miami now we have missed so much authentic drama atp:

- Larsa’s break up
- Lisa’s break up
- Alexia y Toads reconciliation (even tho this is lowkey his fault)
- Lisa arrest y ICONIQUE mug shot
- Adrianna y Alexia coming together to show solidarity
- Steph’s break in/ inside job
- Michael Jordan jrs arrest for possession of cocaine - we could have had live reaction
- hell, ik we hate her but Julie was literally sat next to Kate Middleton a couple weeks ago. I hate the monarchy too (as a Brit) but if we’re talking high society circles you don’t get higher than socialising with the next queen of Great Britain & Northern Ireland.

I have defo missed some things that have happened.

I hope bravo kicks rocks with open toe shoes y gets run over fr. Still bringing back those walking corpses on RHOBH y reviving RHONY that’s been dead y buried like just leave it alone. They could’ve took the budget from next gen like who’s watching ts.

I only watch SLC now. F Bravo

Marysol

So weak, boring and stirs ‘drama’ to keep herself relevant

Her mum is the only interesting thing about her and, without her friendship with Alexia, she’d be reduced to dust

If we could add one housewife from Miami and one housewife from Dallas to the RHUGT Roaring 20, which would you select?

Like Porsha they do not have to be from the first season, but a good housewife that would mix with the current group as is.
