Season 2: Episode 5

 


Episode 5: Gin and Bear It

This whole episode just feels like damage control from the past few episodes. There are some important events that happen but overall, a pretty tame. 

The fallout from casino night is carried on as Lisa continues to try and clear her name after being accused of sabotaging Angie's event. Whitney is still not buying that Lisa was not involved. However, in a surprising turn, Lisa and Whitney meet up over a meal and agree to start fresh, move forward, and build their friendship (I don't think this truce will last very long).

Meanwhile, Jen Shah meets with Merideth's son Brooks to finally apologize for her shady behavior on Twitter. After months of denying and deflecting, she acknowledges that liking tweets mocking his sexuality could actually be harmful to his character. Brooks didn't seem fully convinced with her apology and honestly, neither would I. At this point, only time will tell of Jen is going to change her behavior moving forward (probably not). 

Next, something actually pretty exciting happens in this episode. We get to see our first "Guy's Night" of the season! These parts are always some of my favorites because I love to see the husbands interact with each other in such an opposite way from how their wives interact. Coach Shah, Seth, John, and Justin meet up for drinks and talk about their marriages and the importance of supporting their wives through all their madness. The Salt Lake husbands are my favorite after New Jersey, they all just seem so nice (especially Coach Shah which is so surprising because how can he stay married to Jen, I don’t understand).

The rest of the episode is kind of irrelevant but here are some more things that happened if you are interested:

  • Whitney and Jennie get lunch together and discuss Lisa
  • Heather starts to prepare her oldest daughter for college
  • Mary baked Whitney some cookies

Season 2: Episode 1

Episode 1: Best Frenemies Introduction: This week we will be covering episode 1 of season 2 of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. I have not seen this season so we will be going through these drama-filled episodes one by one together. Just to preface, this season does take place at the end of 2021, into 2022, so I’ll be discussing it as if I am not aware of what happens in the later seasons. Let's Begin… This episode starts off intense, giving a preview of what's to come later in the season. It opens with one of the housewives, Jen Shah, being tracked down by federal agents due to fraud and money laundering charges against her (I know, crazy, but stick with me). This is the wildest opening I've seen to a Housewives season. Then the episode flashes back to where the story really begins, two months  earlier …. Now I’ll be breaking down the housewives and sharing my opinions on each of them: Jen Shah In her new downsized house, Jen has Lisa Barlow over and opens up to her...

Season 2: Episode 6

  Episode 6: Sex, Lies, and Sister Wives In honor of the Oscars happening this past Sunday, I am going to be giving out awards for this week's episode of Salt Lake. The Most Delusional Quote: Duy, Jennie's Husband 🏆 "Why if we get a sister wife?" The topic that got the most screen time from this week's episode was Jennie and her husband Duy's disagreement on having more kids. Jennie is completely against the idea and Duy's solution was to suggest to her that they get a surrogate or a sister wife (Yes, he suggested they become polygamists). Jennie honestly kept her composure pretty well when Duy brought this up considering the fact her husband of 10+ years just suggested bringing another woman into their marriage so she could give him more children. To sum up the rest of the conversation, Jennie told him "No. Absolutely not." and walked away. This is kind of a crazy storyline for someone new to the show this season and I'm hoping for a Duy ap...

Reunion Looks That Hurt My Eyes

Image
For my final blog post, I will be diving into the fashion choices at the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 2 reunion. When this reunion aired in January 2022, it was widely criticized, with some calling it the worst-dressed Housewives reunion in history. Notably, Mary Cosby did not attend the reunion, leaving us with six looks to evaluate. ​ (I don’t really like any of the outfits, so instead of ranking them worst to best, I’m ranking them worst to least bad .)
