Bravo Hot Takes: The Valley, Next Gen NYC, Real Housewives, Below Deck & Southern Hospitality
The Reality Of RealityShow Notes
It may be a slow season for reality TV, but there is still plenty happening in the Bravoverse—and I have thoughts!
This week, I’m breaking down all the biggest moments from The Valley reunion, including the major differences between Luke and Kristen, the complicated dynamic between Michelle, Jesse, and Lacy, and, of course, Danny’s drinking—and what really happened after Jasmine’s wedding.
Then we’re heading to New York for Next Gen NYC. I’m ranking the entire cast from best to worst based on everything we’ve seen this season—and yes, I have some HOT takes about Brooks, Shai, and Charlie. 👀
Plus, there’s plenty of drama brewing in Charleston, from Southern Hospitality STILL waiting on a renewal to Leva’s pending lawsuit. And of course, we’re checking in on all the latest Below Deck Mediterranean drama and what’s happening on The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip.
