Did Brit Ruin RHOA? (RHOA Full Recap)

What's up Bros? We are still in Grenada with the RHOA crew and this season has taken a bit of a turn. We were enjoying it for awhile but it seems like it has gotten stale over the last few weeks. In this episode, Angela and Charles are not communicating very well. While we dont know enough about their relationship to really comment, it would be nice to see Charles be more supportive and affectionate to Angela. At dinner, Shamea calls out Brit for her donation, or lack there of. The group splits ...

Paige Bears it All, Kyle and Amanda on Rocky Grounds (Summer House reunion pt 2 full recap)

What's up Bros? We watched part 2 of the Summer House reunion. Jesse gets through the reunion with a minor slap on the wrist which is shocking to us. But we're glad we can finally move on from the topic. Kyle and Amanda open up about where they were going into this summer and they were shaky to say the least. After hearing them talk it out, they definitely appear to be in a better place but their still seems to be some cracks in the foundation. Then Paige opens up about Craig and shares her side...

The Valley: Too Dark for TV? (The Valley Full Recap)

What's up Bros? Well this one was a doozy. In this episode, the ring drama gets a second wind as Janet and Jason manufacture a storyline. We get nonsense from the VPR transplants that results in truth or dare about Brocks wiener and far too many mentions of enchiladas. Jasmine is fed up with Janet's shenanigans and reads her down. Jason seems genuinely hurt by the Jasmine situation. Danny and Nia come close to a compromise about baby number 4. Zack finally airs his stuff out with an unaccepting ...

Drew, Drama and Grenada (RHOA Full Recap)

What's up bros? The crew heads to Grenada but not before stocking up some donations. Brit donates 3 boxes of tissues which was a bizarre move. She continues to go further and further down the rankings. Porsha and Drew sit down to hash things out and accomplish absolutely nothing. We need them to move on at this point this storyline is dead. The drama is palpable as we head down to Grenada. Mostly centered around Drew. Drew and Shamea are still at odds because of the lapdog comment/ Shamea tellin...

MomTok Presents: TEMU Chippendale's (Secret Lives of Mormon Wives s02ep03)

What's up Bros? In this episode we get the conclusion of the halloween party. TFP and Dakota couldnt be more at odds. Chase cowers to Brett after he made a sarcastic comment/ poked Demi.

Taylor Frankie's Family is the WORST (Secret Live of Mormon Wives s02.ep02 Recap)

What's up Bros? We are back with Momtok for episode 2. This show is amazing. The drama is non-stop and the cast is crushing it this season. In this episode, Taylor's family has a bbq where they try to convince her to stay with Dakota, the man who has screwed her over time and time again. It was brutal to watch. Zac sits down with Jessi and Demi to try and clear the air, but they end up unearthing some lies that Jen has been telling both parties. They all get ready for the big halloween party, bu...

Earl and Shannon Rekindle Their Love (Love Hotel Full recap)

What's up Bros? We love the Love Hotel. After a hell of a cliffhanger last week, we get to read the letter. It turns out Shannon tracked down Earl's long lost stepson and provided him with the contact info. After an emotional scene, it looks like Earl may still be in the running afterall. Luann and James continue to further their relationship (to the point that James is referring to Lu as his girlfriend). Ashley is still torn between Ralph and Wale and even didn't give Wale her key this time. Sh...

The Cast Hates Lexi so Jesse Gets a Pass (Summer House Reunion pt 1)

What's up Bros? What a strange start to the reunion. For the first half we cover Ciara and West. While it was actually nice to get some closure and clarity on the topic, that happened last season... It does appear that West learned how to speak and we thought he did a nice job. Maybe he and Ciara can be friends in the future, who knows? We get to hear from Imrul who agrees that he got pigeon holed, but also that he shouldve made more of an effort. Then we watch as almost the entire cast laughs a...

Lala is a Girl's Girl! Just Ask Ariana! (The Valley Full Recap)

What's up Bros? Welcome back to Lala, Brock and Scheana, right!? JK. What an irrelevant scene that was. In this episode, Danny's drinking takes center stage again. Janet sends Jason to do her bidding in a very strange scene where Jason calls out Danny and his relationship with alcohol. And looked awful while doing it. Jax and Cruz had a hangout but while there, Britany learned that not only was he spying on her in the house, but that he also signed a lease for a condo next to Tom Schwartz... Dan...

Phaedra Returns to RHOA (RHOA Full Recap)

What's up Bros? RHOA is back and we're in agreement. It may not be the best season, but all around it's a solid showing. We like a lot of what this cast is doing and we see a positive trend moving forward. In this episode, Brit is planning an event at her country club. Shamea throws shade at Drew on the radio in response to her lap dog comments. Drew is signing a recording deal with Dennis to officially make them partners. At Brit's event, Angela brings up the Charles baby rumor with Charles pre...

MomTok is BACK! (Secret Lives of Mormon Wives s02 Premiere)

Whitney is trying to climb her way back into the good graces of the group but none of them are open to the idea.

Team Lexi or team Jesse? (Summer House Finale Full Recap)

What's up Bros? We had our members join us for our Summer House Finale recap. What a summer it was. In this episode, we get the aftermath of the Lexi Jesse conversation at the dinner table. Despite Jesse's behavior for the majority of the summer, it appears he is getting more support than Lexi which is strange to us. Lexi might not be your fav, but its pretty evident she was not the problem in this relationship. West finally speaks up and Gabby tries to shut him down. At the final party, Jesse w...

The Valley's Stock is Plummeting (The Valley Full Recap)

What's up Bros? The Valley has taken a miserable turn. Not only are ratings plummeting but this was just a bad episode. In this episode we wrap up the trip to Santa Barbara. Britany, Janet and Jasmine are maintaining that Nia and Danny dont share enough. They also take it upon themselves to diagnose him as an alcoholic which is problematic in its own right. Jesse meets with his "life coach". Michelle tells Scheana that Aaron may end up leaving her if the Jesse situation doesn't get better. Luke ...

Ralph and Ashley Need a Decorum Lesson (Love Hotel Full Recap)

Those two just need to call it quits. Meanwhile, Ralph and Ashley start to heat up which leaves Wale questioning his entire life. James and Luann are getting hot and heavy and even adjourn to Luanns bedroom at the end of the evening. Shannon shifts her focus to Adam who is arguably Earl 2.0. Gizelle g...

Shamea Pours Her Heart Out to Porsha (RHOA Full Recap)

Drew and Ralphs divorce is getting consistently worse and its beginning to impact their kids. Shamea sits down with Porsha to air out a long list...

RIP Jesse and Lexi: Summer Lovin' Gone Wrong (Summer House Full Recap)

What's up Bros? Summer is coming to an end and we would argue this was one of the better seasons we've seen! In this episode, Lexi is fed up with Jesse and decides to end things. Jesse is blindsided as he assumed they'd finally worked through all of their (his) issues. Ciara and Jesse squash their beef and end up hanging out at the U.S. Open. Lindsay hosts a freedom dinner to celebrate one year since Carl called off the wedding. While we agree this sorta proves she's not quite over it yet... it ...

Team Nia or Team Britany? (The Valley Full Recap)

What's up Bros? We pick up where we left off in Santa Barbara. Jesse is 2 bottles of champs deep before 10 am so it's gonna be an interesting day. The gang heads to a winery for the day and the bus breaks down on the way. Tensions are still high between Jesse and Michelle and they're only getting worse. At the vineyard, Jesse pulls Michelle to the side to attempt to have a conversation. It goes horribly as expected and she begins making claims about Jesse spending all of their money. Jax continu...

The Shamea and Porsha Feud Begins (RHOA Full Recap)

What's up Bros? RHOA is about halfway finished and we're happy with what they've done this season. In this episode, Angela starts to move some pieces around strategically. Ralph is apparently the newest addition to the cast when he sits down with Shamea and Porsha. Although it appears Shamea just wanted to do some digging, but we doubt Drew will love it. Brit is still struggling to find her spot on this show and her act is already tired in our opinion. Angela sits down with Porsha and lets her k...
