1000% agree.  Every time I watch this show I wonder how they don’t realize how awful they are.  The only one who is somewhat self aware is Stassi.

VDPR is a guilty pleasure because I use it to validate my own life choices. In a cast full of reality-TV archetypes, Scheana stands out even from the other women as being high-maintenance - her self-regard, how fussy she is about her appearance, how she views relationships. This is why I didn’t get her relationship…

Oh, my bad!

I’m way more eager to indict Jax than I am Brittany. The guy is a 39-year-old man child with serious mental issues. I don’t know what you’d call it clinically but he’s absolutely a narcissistic abuser with some sort of personality disorder or egomania or both.

It was sooooo fun and soooooo stupid. I’d never do it again, but going to those places *just* once for the sake of witnessing the animals in their natural habitat was a treat.

Oh, he was definitely still married. It’s why Brandi wanted to rip Scheana’s head off for several years and stick it on a pike. Let’s not forget that she also hooked up with John Mayer.

I don’t know if he’s like this now (I ran into him a few months after his first season on the show, when he was dating Kristen) but he fucking LOVES attention and LOVES being famous. I think that’s why he was so enthusiastic to meet a “fan.” I can’t remember what I said initially - I was pretty wasted - so I don’t…

Isnt that what Trey called his penis on “sex and the city?” fits perfectly

Even Arianna got Botox and fillers and made friends with Stassi this season.

Lol, classic James. I loathe him, but also want him be okay. It’s confusing.

It’s not that surprising once you realize that everyone who works at SUR is an aspiring actor/model/singer/D-list celebrity/blue chip escort. The restaurant is really just a holding pen for reality stars and I’m sure you need a headshot and CV to apply.

This will sound stupid but can’t Scheana and Brittany find like a nice NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA or whatever player that will treat them well and without all this dumb drama. Like I’m sure Brittany can meet a sweet baseball player from the south that will give her the world. For Scheana it may be more difficult bc she’s…

I’m still surprised that Scheana, while working at Sur, had a fling with (I think still married to Brandi Glanville) Eddie Cibrian.

I get a Jody Arias vibe from her.

Most of the time I don’t feel guilt for watching their thirsty antics. I strongly suspect these narratives are likely concocted by cast members, and polished by the producers to generate a cohesive story line. Like, these people think these are the things that make them interesting.

That’s really what makes Scheana so…

You make a good point in that Scheanna’s sense of self-worth is wrapped up in a reality show, and one that leans heavily on the status/ success of being in a relationship or “having a man.” 95% of the drama and conflict on this show is based on infidelity rumors, proposals, sex, and weddings. And Scheanna’s not the…

It’s pronounced SHEE-na but I prefer your pet name as it implies a career of hosting tons of different seamen and a nasty case of barnacles under the hull.

I know that these characters/people and the stories are now this many seasons in only loosely based in reality and are carefully edited and manipulated to foster a certain narrative. At some point, it seems as if her own self love has been distorted, hurt, damaged, lost or forgotten. Her rampant and unsupported and…

I’ve also slowly started to wean myself off of it, mostly because all the women on the show are the fucking WORST. Even Arianna, the most sensible, self-respecting one of the bunch, has this air of “I’m hot shit and you better acknowledge it” about her. Lala is the same way. I would totally dig her decision making…
