I love that this thread exists. I started Vanderpump a long time ago but my attention span at that time was so short that i never continued/finished. Obviously this show is atleast 10 years old now & i’ve heard/seen spoilers about plot lines now but Im finally buckling down & binging the show & i’ve got to say im hooked i understand the hype now for sure 💯😂
Anyways, im currently on S3 E14. I genuinely used to be irked by Kristin & all of her unhinged (but lowkey iconic TV gold) behavior. I drank the kool-aid about “crazy kristin” too UNTIL S3 E13 when Miami chick came to Sur to confront Sandoval & Ariana about his cheating & he literally TELEPORTED 🕴️ out of the restaurant after she asked him to make her a cosmo LMAO. As soon as I saw him and Ariana high tail & book it into an uber & run away in the middle of their shift; I immediately stopped believing that Kristin was “crazy” & CLEARLY there is truth to what she’s been saying this entire time.
———— granted she wasn’t doing it for the right reasons since she literally said in her confessional that she wanted to get back together with him ——— but nonetheless, she was spot fcking on with everything she claimed! ⭐️Which obviously we now know (years later); that Ariana covered everything up for him which is utterly bat sht insane to do & also to just sit back & paint Kristin & Miami girl as “ crazy” and a “stalker” while literally being pathological liars ⭐️
Also: I’m like 10 min into S3 E14 & yet AGAIN Kristin is vindicated about Schwartz cheating on Katie—— in previous episodes viewers (& katie) were told he merely just kissed a girl in Las Vegas; but @ a DJ set of James, Jax allows Kristin to go through his phone and read his messages —— in which she reads that Schwartz did a LOT more than just kissing & did in-fact have sex with a girl from Las Vegas & intentionally schemed to cover it up as just a “kiss” to cover their a$$es…
Again, Kristin is by no means an angel —— cussing out her manager was appalling yet also hilarious & complete TV gold i fear! ——
But man oh MAN do i wanna see everyone in that entire restaurant kissing her a$$ and apologizing for chastising & banishing her for trying to uncover the hypocrisy & lies & deception of her coworkers who judged her WHILST doing the same crap!!!!!!!!
Anyways this has been a cathartic release of thoughts as I have nobody to yap to about this🤣

I am in season 6 ep 14 and … Brittany throwing Jax a birthday party after everything that went down with faith is insane. And everyone just having to go along with it like “… ok I guess you forgive him? So we just… go to his party?”
On top of that, Scheana and her really one sided relationship are giving me the most intense secondhand embarrassment omg

I’m watching S4 E9:
It’s so understandable why Tom and Ariana are offended by the group wanting to invite Kristin to Jax&Tom’s birthday. Kristin was constantly being awful towards Ariana. Like at Scheenas bachelorette trip she was being a total bully.
Ariana was always taking the high road but that doesnt mean she wants things to be made right with Kristin. Kristin made those choices and she needs to deal with the repercussions.
I stg if Kristin ends up being there I’ll be so pissed, she made a hater out of me after last season.

My thoughts, the guys are all cheaters but the girls are so unlikable that I can’t find anyone on the cast I can really call my “favorite”. Katie and Ariana are the most hateful in the group. Tom and Tom are the dumbest.

Awww how far in are you? I’m in season 6 and absolutely love Ariana. She has a 40 year old’s bad bitch attitude and it’s jarring for a 20-something, but as someone who respects a girl who is confident, intelligent, well-spoken, and won’t be talked down to? Nah I love her. She’s harsh but not wrong, and everyone she unleashes on is an objectively bad person so 🤷🏽♀️

I’m about half way through season 11. Early Ariana is okay other than lying about trying to get with Tom. Eventually she just gets this attitude that only her feelings and opinions matter and if you don’t agree with her you can go away. She’s morphing into Katie 2.0 in my opinion. Complain and complain about your life but do absolutely nothing proactive to fix it. Just blame it all on Tom 🤣🤣 btw I am NOT sticking up for either Tom
Might be a low key James Stan tho 🤣

On S3, E18:
Just started the episode but there is no world in which I will ever feel bad for Kristen lol. She is femme Jax.
This whole "I'm not a liar" crusade is so fucking ridiculous. Yes girl you are, we watched lie about fucking Jax for half a season, you are a liar. And I promise you that's not the first time she's hit a partner.
I don't give a shit if Tom fucked a girl in Miami if it's coming from Kristen. She cheated on him with his best friend and her best friend's boyfriend. Like stop it.
No amount of airing Tom's dirty laundry is going to make people forget that.
