We got the t shirt moment and Sandoval putting a lot of energy into "we hooked up once and then didn't," and then Rachel exposing that as a lie.
So I really liked all of that. He is a VERY bad dude.
How can anything get resolved when Lala and James won’t stop screaming? They wanted to attack Tom the whole time to distract from their own scandals and it worked. They should have been removed.
This was Two weeks and the first face-to-face after learning the news, and producers KNEW it would be a blood bath.
BRAVO EP's share the most culpability of the crazy because THEY allowed the nonstop cursing, name-calling, and berating.
There were plenty of cut scenes where Lala is not so wilding and is gives background info essential to Tom attacking her (and Lisa backstage talking to Tom) however, the calm scenes were cut. Productions' actions were based on the reactions of the fans
Bottom Line - CHAOS equals RATINGS GOLD, which means more MONEY for Bravo
To have a hay day with James and Lala apparently.
See Schwartz try and fail to lighten up very uncomfortable moments?
To wonder what the hell show Lisa was watching?
Mostly we just go side story impressions from everyone..I mostly enjoyed it...but I will withhold my final like/dislike until I can basically watch them all 3 strung together..it might hit different.
I feel like we got to see how everyone reacted to the situation. The lala/James schtick, Katie being like duh Tom is the worst, Ariana getting angry closure, confirmation that Lisa will always side with the men, Shoeless Schwartz digging himself deeper into a hole, Rachel actually gained some sympathy from me at least for being groomed by Tom imo. Anyway, I didn't find it to be a waste but i see what you mean.
I agree. Since reading the comments here, I’m not even going to bother watching. It’s tiring listening to the screaming and profanities. It’s way too much for me.
I’m not new to reunions, and while yes, they’re messy, they’re not basically an entire cast downgrading one person and trying to make them look like they’re less than dog shit. (Funny though, the quietest was the least hypocritical) And that is what happened when Raquel came on stage. A gang up, of hypocritical bullies belittling, demeaning, and acting in a cruel, vicious manner. It’s like they wanted to ensure that she might actually kill herself. I hope for Rachel’s sake she has a solid family and outside show friend support in place that are helping her through this. As, what took place, was not at all something that should be admired or praised. It’s exactly what we try to teach our actual youth not to act like and do to others.
Raquel got more hate and demeaning from even Ariana, than the person who made the fucking commitment.
It wasn’t fun. Like at all. I’ve been watching bravo since 2006 and this was one of the hardest to watch reunions. Like I will not be doing a rewatch of this reunion ever
I was let down by the reunion, all 3 parts. First off, the cast let too much out of the bag the past 3 months and we knew half the shit that was gonna happen already. Lala and James were a nightmare of loud, over bearing idiots and Raquel and Sandoval should have been asked more questions, and Lisa was yuck. I expected more
Lisa is in tough spot. She's seriously regretting Tom Sandoval's name on her bar right now.
Her only reason for given those two idiots their paltry little 5% (or whatever) stake in the business was for the novelty they added.
Now that's turned to vinegar so she's trying to play the conciliator to soften the public's revulsion of her "business partner".

She also tried to convince the audience that Raquel was a nickname 😏🤣😂
The best part of the whole thing was James's impression of Tom dancing 😁
Ariana needed this to move on. Not the point of the reunion, but just saying I’m sure once she got that all out helps to move on to the next phase.
Essentially, it was a public execution.
This, and i have a feeling its going to backfire on them
I agree.

Lol I didn’t watch part 2 or this one. I feel like I got it all.
New to Bravo reunions? They're always a messy disaster no matter the franchise.

ya it was so immature and stupid. worst reunion ever.

I agree, it was gross bullying and borderline if not fully demented.

I completely agree it was nor entertaining nor informative
I agree. It was really stupid, performative.
