What Wed Like To See in Vanderpump Rules Season 11

Filming for Vanderpump Rules Season 11 is underway, even if villains Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss aren’t on set yet. And though it’s only been a few month since Season 10 officially wrapped, a lot has changed. With Scandoval bringing more eyes on the show than ever, production will really have to step it up. Here’s what we’re hoping to see, now that the once-stale series is having a renaissance.

Something About Her

Every glimpse of Katie Maloney and Ariana Madix‘s upcoming sandwich shop looks incredible. The Parisian-inspired interior is so pretty, especially compared to the…eclectic decor of most Vanderpump Rules spots. Ariana and Katie taking opening a restaurant seriously was so refreshing to watch amidst Schwartz & Sandy’s mayhem.

We can’t wait to see these ladies run Something About Her, as they both live their best Tom-free lives. Plus, it gives us more of Katie and Ariana’s friendship, which is a delightful dynamic to watch. Especially now that Ariana won’t be defending Raquel, and with Katie and Scheana Shay on better terms.

Ariana’s New Man Daniel Wai

Ariana has thrived in the most amazing ways these past few months, from her career to her love life. After meeting Daniel Wai at a friend’s wedding, she went public with the hunky trainer at Coachella. Naturally, she’s been asked about him a lot in interviews, and is always glowing with happiness.

In addition to sweeping Ariana off her feet, Daniel seems to have instantly won over her friends and co-stars, so he fits in with the cast already. He is very supportive of Ariana, unlike her ex (never forget the cocktail book fiasco). Not to mention, he’s pretty easy on the eyes. Viewers can’t wait to formerly meet him on the show. We anticipate Sandoval seething with jealousy.

Tom Schwartz’s Villain Era

How long will Tom Schwartz be able to get away with his puppy dog act? Despite cheating on Katie, that disastrous Watch What Happens Live appearance, and being Sandoval’s “flying monkey,” Schwartz keeps a solid fanbase.

The tides are starting to turn, but we think Schwartz got off a little too easily. Yes, Sandoval is worse. But as Ariana said, his BFF was an active participant in plotting her downfall. Schwartz’s “aw shucks” demeanor can’t hide his malicious side forever. Katie calling him a pathetic, drunk loser was long overdue, so let’s hope for more Schwartz call outs next year.

Schwartz may redeem himself if he’s actually done with Sandoval. We’re not totally buying it yet, considering his historic lack of a backbone. But Sandoval singing shady lyrics seems to indicate there’s some truth. And hey, at least Schwartz isn’t asking fans to give Sandoval a hug anymore.

If next season shows a TomTom feud, it will be the greatest dynamic shift since Scandoval. Think Vanderpump Rules: Civil War. Schwartz never even defended his wife to his best friend, so what would it look like if they fought? Would he realize how many people he hurt under Sandoval’s thumb? If Schwartz actually cuts off Sandoval, the worm with a mustache will have really lost everything—that’s called karma. At least he’ll still have the cover band?

Let’s Get to Know Jo

As soon as we heard Schwartz’s “roommate” Jo Wenberg was Kristen Doute‘s “crazy friend,” we were intrigued. Jo sounds like a bizarre person, which might explain why she’s Raquel’s biggest supporter. They certain share a talent for sending Ariana befuddling texts. Like her “roommate” Schwartz, she knew about the affair for some time. The four of them even went on a couples’ trip in January. Unsurprisingly, Katie is not a big fan.

The last time Pump Rules tried to add new cast members, it was a disaster—Season 8 was maybe the worst—so let’s hope they don’t make those same mistakes. Instead of bringing on newbies with no connection to the existing cast, let’s meet the people they keep talking about.

Breaking the Fourth Wall

VPR isn’t always willing to acknowledge the cast’s fame (remember how long they pretended to work at SUR?), but Scandoval showed that it really should. Who could forget Sandoval freaking out at the camera man? We’d also like to see this for silly reasons—we really hope Schwartz works in some references to his time on Mars.

More Airtime for Fan Favorites

Charli Burnett was the only Season 8 newbie to remain on the show, and might now have a bigger role in Season 11. She’s never been afraid to call out other cast members. Even when she was Raquel’s friend, Charli confronted her for kissing Schwartz to hurt Katie.

We also hope to see more of Ally Lewber, a breath of fresh air last season. She won everyone over as quickly as she stole James Kennedy‘s heart. Her sweet personality could be an act—let’s not forget how long Raquel fooled people—but so far, she’s down-to-earth and incredibly likable.

None of the Fired Cast

Some of you may disagree. But Jax Taylor, his wife Brittany Cartwright, Kristen, and Stassi Schroeder really don’t need to come back. There’s more than enough going on without them. That rumored spin-off isn’t necessary either—let’s not forget why they were fired!

Yes, Jax’s chaos provided entertainment in early years, but the Pump Rules seasons revolving around him and Brittany were arguably the show’s worst. He was always awful to Ariana, so it’s gross to use her pain to crawl back to fame. And his criticisms of Sandoval fall on deaf ears, since he’s done the same, if not worse. We’re also not sure what Brittany brings to the show, aside from a southern accent.

As for Kristen, she’s repeatedly said she was done with the show and only came back in Season 10 for Ariana’s sake, so we’re not sure why she’s on the spin-off.

And Stassi? Well, she said it herself.

Real Housewives Who Should Never Be Trusted

The Real Housewives franchise has been popular since the day Bravo cameras stepped behind the guiled gates of Coto de Caza to film the original series, the Real Housewives of Orange County. The allure of the unknown was exciting, as fans were eager to see what it was like for those who lived an extremely privileged life in America.

As more and more franchises were born, and even some international ones, viewers were able to meet women from all over the country. Some were business woman, some were mothers, and others were A-list movie stars.

What each woman had in common was the fact that followers would judge who was their favorite over how they were portrayed on the show. And some, sadly, didn’t fair well. For these sketchy Real Housewives, betrayal seems second nature.

Lisa Rinna

Lisa Rinna of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is a polarizing character on the series since when she first joined the show back in 2014 during Season 4, she was well-received. It also helped that she had Harry Hamlin and his Bolognese recipe by her side. However, Lisa’s reputation took a hit when she started to verbally attack her close friend, Denise Richards, during Season 10. The Days of Our Lives actress started to act as if Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was a soap opera, as she appeared over dramatic during most of her later camera moments.

One example of Lisa being sneaky was when she openly questioned if Yolanda Hadid had Munchausen syndrome. Instead of listening to the former model explain she had Lyme disease, Lisa brought up how she felt the blonde was faking her symptoms. The drama upset Yolanda so much that she eventually left the show. Lisa has shown multiple times when she has let out multiple microaggressions, and fans see her for the sketchy Real Housewife she really is.

Teresa Giudice

Even though viewers love the drama caused on Real Housewives of New Jersey, a lot of the action has been caused by the mother of four’s constant lies. Teresa Giudice is no longer the sweet stay-at-home mother fan met during Season 1, but rather a calculating housewife. Honestly, it is hard to accurately count up how many times she has stretched the truth to try and get her way, but it is a lot.

The biggest lies Teresa seems to spread are about her brother, Joe Gorga, and his wife, Melissa Gorga. For years, Teresa tried to push the narrative that Melissa was a stripper. This past season the “Skinny Italian” author tried to say Melissa even cheated on Joe with a mystery man in the back of the car. The number of fabrications Teresa made up could fill another New York Times Best Selling book, but it would have to be labeled under fiction.

Kathy Hilton

Kathy Hilton became the comic relief during a tense season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but there were times she came across as a liar. Her issues with her sister, Kyle Richards, were enough to keep fans entertained. But it was her outburst in Aspen that took the cake. Even though fans were not privy to the tantrum, Lisa reenacted what she saw in the sprinter van from hell.

Kathy immediately denied the allegations that she screamed and acted out of character. Instead, she tried to quiet the story, even threatening to take down Bravo and the NBC network. Someone who isn’t lying wouldn’t have become enraged by Lisa’s story. It led many viewers to feel Kathy wasn’t telling the whole truth about that night.

Phaedra Parks

“The lies! The lies!” is still screamed out by fans of Real Housewives of Atlanta to this day. Season 9 showed fan favorite, Phaedra Parks, the jack of all trades, in a totally different light. The mortician/lawyer puppeteered her friend, Porsha Williams, to claim that Kandi Burruss and her husband, Todd Tucker, tried to have sex with her. The season became heated as the pop singer tried to defend her name.

During the Season 9 finale of Real Housewives of Atlanta, the truth came to light. Phaedra was forced to admit she had been behind the whole debacle, and showed herself as a sketchy Real Housewife. The fall from grace was devastating as Kandi and Phaedra started the show as close friends.

Below Decks Most Valuable Players

Since it’s 2013 premiere, the cast hired to work onboard the Below Deck super yachts have come and gone. Many have even been fired midway throughout their charter seasons.

Sometimes, cast members do not return for a second (or third) season due to their lack of creating television worthy drama. Other times, poor work ethics or behaviors that teeter on becoming a liability for the network are to blame.

However, several yachties have continued on with the Below Deck franchise for years. Each of these cast members consistently held the perfect combination of drama and work ethics to secure their positions onboard.

These are Below Deck’s most valuable players.

Captain Lee Rosbach

Bravo/YouTube

Captain Lee Rosbach kicked off Below Deck’s very first season. His humor and one-liners were sometimes a bit salty, but he always ran an incredibly efficient ship. Captain Lee’s career on-air lasted for 10 seasons. Within the entire franchise, he holds the longest reign as a captain. All in all, he’s easily one of Below Deck’s most valuable players.

However, Season 10 saw the first Below Deck captain crossover occurring. Captain Sandy Yawn from Below Deck Mediterranean was brought in for several charters so that Captain Lee could recover from nerve issues in his left leg. Once Captain Lee recovered enough to return, his crew welcomed him back with open (and thankful) arms.

Throughout his Below Deck tenure, Captain Lee officiated weddings, entertained flirtatious charter guests, dressed in varying party themes to heighten guest experiences, and cracked jokes over drunken onboard antics.

In darker seasons, he even shared his grief, opening about his son’s opioid addiction and subsequent passing.

Sadly, when Season 11 begins to air, the wheelhouse will be void of Captain Lee’s presence, as the network has decided to go in another direction to “freshen up” the series.

That said, if the network’s decision “screwed the pooch,” Captain Lee has admitted that he’d happily return, no harm no foul. Insert his one-liner of ”if your tit’s in the wringer it’s because you put it there,” here.

Kate Chastain

Bravo/YouTube

When Chief Stew Kate Chastain joined Captain Lee in Season 2, Below Deck’s viewership skyrocketed. Kate’s ability to do her job well while handing out quick quips in heated situations combined to create television gold. Kate remained onboard Below Deck until her departure following Season 7, making her the longest tenured chief stew in the franchise.

During her 6 seasons on-air, Kate became known for her clap-back styled antics. When a primary charter guest called her “b****y,” she folded the blanket in his cabin to resemble a penis.

Following a stressful Season 7 with Chef Kevin Dobson, Kate got revenge during a final dinner service. The primary requested a penis-shaped cake be served during her all girls trip. Kate encouraged Kevin to create a vertical cake instead of his classier planned horizontal design. Then, when this guest became a bit too drunk and tired, she left the table early, as a serious conversation between her remaining guests and Captain Lee took place.

Kate chose this moment to have an unaware Kevin deliver the cake. Kevin brought out the cake, sparklers lit and all, to a horrified captain and confused guests. “It was like the most inappropriate time,” Kate recalled, smirking.

On liking Kate, many viewers became torn towards the end. Some felt that she was a bully towards other crew members, while other fans found her remarks behind guests’ backs insensitive. Captain Lee’s favoritism towards Kate was also brought up, as the two were (and still remain) close friends.

These heightened reactions and antics, however, brought in the viewers, and Kate’s ability to stir the pot while providing comedic relief put Below Deck on the map.

Ben Robinson

Bravo/YouTube

Chef Ben Robinson‘s cutting English humor and highly skilled culinary skills lands him a spot as one of Below Deck’s most valuable players. Starring on Below Deck during Seasons 1-4, Ben then crossed over to Below Deck Mediterranean for Season 1 and Season 4. These combined years place Ben as the longest running chef in the franchise.

Though prone to stress-filled outbursts during charters, Ben made gorgeously-plated meals, hooked up with the cast, clapped-back perfectly when annoyed, and entered rooms with a loud, iconic laugh.

Aka, Ben was built for reality television.

Also fun to watch was Ben’s bantering with Kate Chastain. These encounters left many with the “will they…won’t they…” feelings for years, and sure enough, the duo confessed much later to an off-air hook-up (one time only) taking place.

Eddie Lucas

Bravo/YouTube

Deckhand Eddie Lucas appeared on Below Deck during the very first season. Once on the crew, he quickly rose up in ranks, earning the title of Bosun for Seasons 2 and 3.

During Season 3, Eddie cheated on his girlfriend with Stew Rocky Dakota. He then lied on-air when Rocky outed their trysts, causing Rocky pain, and his girlfriend to end their relationship. After filming, Rocky went on to claim that the pair hooked up twice more. On this, Eddie never spoke, but he went on to take a multi-years pause from the series.

Season 8 saw the return of Eddie in the Bosun position. However, filming was cut short due to the rise of the COVID-19 pandemic. Before departing the yacht, Captain Lee called Eddie into the wheelhouse to present him with new epaulets, signifying a first officer ranking for Season 9.

On this, an emotional Captain Lee expressed that he saw Eddie like a son. Eddie choked up. Their bond remains strong to the present day. Eddie left Below Deck following Season 9. To date, he is the longest running Bosun on the Below Deck franchise.

Despite Eddie’s personal failings, his humor and growth still won over most of the Below Deck fans. While many would like to see Eddie return as a Below Deck Captain, after filming he slammed the network for their poor pay. A return now is unlikely.

The 90 Day Fiancé Franchises Most Memorable Quotes

The 90 Day Fiancé franchise is nothing short of iconic, so it is no surprise that the show and its spin-offs have produced tons of meme-worthy quotes. In addition to the original show, viewers have met notable cast members on 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days and 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way. Furthermore, the spin-offs 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After and 90 Day: The Single Life feature even juicier drama from fan favorite cast members.

While the 90 Day Fiancé franchise has seen dozens of humorous quotes throughout the years, the ones below just cannot be topped.

“I Like The View” – Rose Vega

(Rose Vega/YouTube)

Arguably, the most memorable quote from the 90 Day Fiancé franchise was spoken by Rose Vega to her infamous ex Ed Brown. When Big Ed went to visit Rose in the Philippines, she remarked that she “liked the view” at the resort where they were staying. Ed responded by saying “You do?” to which Rose responded “yes.” The best part of the conversation happened when Ed remarked “You’re my best view” to which Rose replied “neh.”

Ed and Rose were featured on Before The 90 Days Season 4, which aired during the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conversation between Ed and Rose quickly went viral on social media, and was a good laugh during the difficult times of the pandemic.

“If I Sleep With Him, It Means I Consider Him As The Father Of My Kids” – Natalie Mordovtseva

(TLC/YouTube)

Natalie Mordovtseva is one of the most unique 90 Day Fiancé cast members. She never fails to leave viewers baffled with her logic. One of Natalie’s most memorable moments was an argument she had with her boyfriend, Josh Weinstein. On The Single Life, Natalie became infuriated after Josh left to go on a business trip. Natalie happened to have been intimate with Josh the night before, and in a fury claimed, “If I sleep with a man, it means I consider him as the father of my kids.”

There are many questionable things about Natalie’s statement. She and Josh were unsure about their relationship, let alone having kids. While Natalie might be traditional, in today’s day and age most people would likely not agree with her on this matter.

“Who Is Against The Queen Will Die” – Larissa Lima

(TLC/YouTube)

Larissa Lima is another 90 Day Fiancé cast member that you just can’t forget, whether it be for good or bad. While Larissa said a lot of memorable things to her ex, Colt Johnson, her best quote was when she told his cousin “Who is against the queen will die.” Colt’s cousin had been questioning Larissa’s true intentions with Colt, although she was clearly not happy with being interrogated.

Larissa’s quote was so ridiculous, that it became funny. It quickly became a joke all over social media. The phrase even made its way onto 90 Day Fiancé merchandise items online.

“Don’t Terrorize Me With Your Pregnancy” – Andrei Castravet

(TLC/YouTube)

Andrei Castravet never fails to say exactly what is on his mind. This includes his iconic phrase “don’t terrorize me with your pregnancy”. Andrei’s wife, Elizabeth Potthast, was frustrated that Andrei couldn’t find work amid her growing pregnancy. She eventually told him to just ask her dad for a job. It was clear that Andrei wanted to do no such thing. He quickly escalated the conversation into an argument, where he uttered the memorable quote.

While Andrei is disliked by some viewers, his personality makes him a favorite for others, as they enjoy his humor and authenticity. Andrei has had many memorable outbursts over the years. However, “Don’t terrorize me with your pregnancy” may be the best thing he has said to date.

“You’re A User Mohamed! You Used Me!” – Danielle Mullins

(TLC/YouTube)

Danielle Mullins and Mohamed Jbali had a tumultuous relationship from the start. However, things peaked when Danielle confronted Mohamed in an unforgettable scene. Shortly after getting married, Mohamed left Danielle in Ohio to move to Miami, as he did not feel things could work between them. A furious Daniele later traveled to Miami to see Mohamed. There, she provided him with a binder of “evidence”, regarding the turning points in their relationship.

Mohamed made it clear that he had no interest in looking at the binder. As a result, Danielle became even angrier. Daniele threw the binder at Mohamed as he walked away and screamed, “You’re a user Mohamed! You used me.” This was arguably one of the most comical moments in 90 Day Fiancé history, that true fans will never forget.

Kyle Richards Most Memorable Moments on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

Kyle Richards is the last remaining “OG” on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. As such, she has had her share of memorable moments. Some could be considered iconic, while others were filled with tension and emotion. She has been holding her RHOBH diamond for 13 seasons. So, whether she is clashing with her sisters or fighting with a bestie, she knows the assignment. These are Kyle Richards’ most memorable moments on RHOBH.

A Psychic Prediction Leaves a Bad Aftertaste

During Season 1, Camille Grammer held a dinner party at her home. And it was legendary. Camille’s good friend, psychic Allison DuBois, also attended. After initially refusing to give a reading, Allison fired off one that Kyle will never forget.

Allison said she only saw two marriages for Kyle. Since Kyle was divorced when she married Mauricio Umansky in 1996, that sounded like good news. But Allison added, “He will never emotionally fulfill you. Know that!”

Jumping ahead to the present day, now Kyle and Mauricio have separated, per Page Six. Is Allison puffing on her e-cigarette in triumph? This duo always portrayed a happy and united marriage. Perhaps we will see a reconciliation in the future.

Kyle Revealed a Family Secret

Bravo/YouTube

During the first season finale, Kyle and her sister, Kim Richards, engaged in a nasty verbal fight in a limo. While the sisters squabbled during the season, it was a shock to viewers when their anger exploded. Kim accused her sister of stealing her house.

A furious Kyle charged at Kim and screamed, “You are a liar and sick and an alcoholic.” The scene was unforgettable due to its shocking nature. Kyle told her sister that she would no longer be getting any further help from her or Mauricio.

Brandi and Kyle’s Driveway Showdown

Bravo/YouTube

Brandi Glanville and Kyle were involved in a shoving match at co-star Eileen Davidson’s home during Season 5. Kim, who had been in rehab, started to behave oddly. Kyle wanted to speak with her.

While in Eileen’s home, Brandi tried to usher Kim, and her slice of pizza, outside. Kyle grabbed at Brandi, who shoved her. Brandi brought Kim outside, but Kyle followed. She insisted she needed to speak with her sister.

Brandi shaded Kyle for not being there for Kim. At one point, Brandi grabbed both of Kyle’s wrists. Who knew that Eileen’s driveway would be the setting for an iconic RHOBH fight?

The Bitter End for Kyle and Lisa Vanderpump

Watch What Happens Live/YouTube

All the drama on Season 9 of the show centered on a dog that Dorit Kemsley adopted from Vanderpump Dogs. Ignoring the pup’s adoption contract, Dorit allegedly rehomed the puppy. According to Lisa Vanderpump, the dog ended up at a kill shelter.

When news of the scandal hit the press, RHOBH cast members Teddi Mellencamp, Lisa Rinna, Erika Jayne, and Dorit believed that Lisa Vanderpump leaked the story.

Kyle went to Villa Rosa to inform Lisa that her co-stars believed she was the leak. Lisa swore on her children that she wasn’t. But Kyle didn’t believe her. Lisa ordered her longtime friend out of her home, as her husband Ken Todd bellowed, “Goodbye Kyle!”

Not only was it the end of their friendship, but also marked the end of Lisa’s time on RHOBH. But don’t worry. She is sitting pretty with a little show called Vanderpump Rules.

Another Sisterly Bond Is Damaged

Bravo/YouTube

Kyle and her other sister, Kathy Hilton, were estranged in the past. But during Season 12, their repaired bond was fractured again.

Kyle organized some shopping time with her co-stars at her favorite Aspen store, Kemo Sabe. Kathy was furious when Lisa Rinna ordered Kendall Jenner’s brand of tequila instead of Kathy’s brand. She was angry and stormed out.

Later that evening, Lisa Rinna claimed that Kathy had a meltdown after acting out at a club. According to Lisa Rinna, Kathy threatened to ruin Kyle and the show. Kyle was in the middle. And let’s say she didn’t side with Kathy.

At the reunion, Lisa Rinna and Kathy argued while Kyle sobbed. Kathy called Kyle “a martyr” and knocked her sister for not taking her side against Lisa Rinna.

Kyle and Kathy remained estranged but have recently started to make amends. Kathy is reportedly not filming for Season 13. But Kim is returning as a guest.

Buckle up. It looks like Season 13 could be another memorable season for Kyle.
