Shep and Austen get stone AF - i kind of like Shep better when he’s a little blazed up
Ashely and Naomi get Rose together? WTF was that about
Ashley still thinks she can apologize to Kathryn - and the scene of her asking Naomi about that is really uncomfortable. Ashley lacks Emotional Intelligence and Awareness almost completely.
The “Infused” dinner “butter, salad dressing, etc” - Shep “It tastes like Victory”
"Smart resume" feature on fast forward of DVR by Xfinity is genius
Do we think all of Craig and Whitney’s spats are completely fake? They’re always chilling together and then in groups Craig yells at him.
Cameran says “my mojo is retired” — well then maybe it’s time to stop being on the show.
Kathryn - telling Austen his weed party is rude — passive aggressive behavior at its best.
The flashback to What What Happens live of whitney talking calling Kathryn a sociopath — hasn’t aged well.

$126K Rolls Royce Ghost
Eliza - filming by herself with her family WHY??? Love that they’re trying to force her “brand on the viewers”.
Oh she almost got on a plane that crashed — didn’t see this wrinkle coming to her story.
Whitney kept his glasses on = line of the season thus far?
Wadmalaw Island, SC home of the tree house stuff - Really nice treehouses - not exactly roughing it.
Cameran “Speak for yourself sister, i’m getting tanked.” promptly brings bottle of champagne in the car. So she’s owning it.
Deep Water Vineyard - they grow muscadine grapes only at this vineyard.
Whitney and Shep at coffee. his dog, Smoochie isn’t doing well.
Do we think that the show is making Danni start stuff with Kathryn on purpose, or do we think she actual cares about her being MIA all week.
They are over the muscadine wine.
Food looks good at the tree house
Episode 5 - Tree house mansion girls trip part 2. Kathryn and Danni get into a beef on kathryn being kathryn.
To me this is Danni saying - 1) well they need someone to beef with Kathryn. 2) She won’t beef with the new random thirsty b’s 3) Danni can solidify her own status on show and celebrity by beefing with one of her friends over something pretty frivolous.
Craig’s pillow making party - and he’s wearing eyeliner — which is cool, but it’s quite a new look to spring on folks at your party… which turned into a free labor event.
Episode 6 - Boys trip — these guys are just no longer likable. Especially when they are in a group.
More deep dives into Eliza (not sure if it was Ep 5 or 6). Here’s my hot take — they are going to make Southern Charm a lot more about Eliza in season 7… they need to retire more of these folks… they aren’t getting any more interesting… so they’ve got to give us someone who can get us in a new group of Charleston friends/frenemies/ thirty peeps.
Kathryn’s Senator Boy Friend “Joe” shows up.
Southern Charm Season 5 season finale
Fake band name of the week - Non Sequitur Explosion in honor of the last 3 mins of Southern Charm Season 5
Places listening - Hinsdale, IL / London, UK / and Ashburn, VA
Spain, Germany, Russia, France, Australia, Brazil and the United Arab Emirates - so FLY EMIRATES
Did anybody have better turnaround from season four to season five than Craig?
Following up — it’s not like Craig’s improved “who he is”, it’s that he’s just having more fun “being Craig” and so are… do you both agree?
Biggest post-season heel turn — Austen has made a comeback of late — but it has to be T-Rav right?
No matter how you answer this — I think that Chelsea is essentially the breakout star of Season 5 (in terms joining the cast late and rising quickly. But, Is Chelsea America’s sweet heart —or like a “secret sniper” She kind of finds a way "stir the pot”, she always messes with Austen’s lady friends in a “who me type of way”.
I know you ladies love Katherine - I’m glad she’s growing up but here’s a hot take — she’s Boring AF. Prove me wrong.
Ashley - most hated character of season 5? Anybody else even close?
Burned out quickly award - Naomi. Called out JD on Ep 1 and 2. Called out Elizabeth on Ep. Called Peyton a Thirsty B in Episode 4. Then she apologized to Peyton, and when she tried to resume her “bashing of Craig” - single Craig completely flipped the tables and kind of swayed most nuetral viewers to “team craig” in my opinion.
Favorite moment / scene of the season?
Is it time to give Shep a break? I think he’s boring and he’s a two-trick pony. We’ve seen his tricks for 5 season plus relationshep. Solution - can we put Shep on Below Deck as the host of a Charter Party (as a client) - and see if hilarity ensures?
Does Cameran come back stronger in season 6?
How do we feel about the theme song singer getting to “scat and freestyle over” the previews this season.
T-Rav is fired from Southern Charm. What were your initial thoughts? Do you foresee any type of opportunity for T-Rav to return to southern charm

Has PETA filled against Southern Charm yet — lots of mink and fur coats and shales? are the fake?

Ashley and Kathryn face to face - Ashley is the worst. Kathryn lights her up.
BravoTv.com posted this teaser called “Naomie Olindo calls out J.D. Madison
First of all — now Naomie has a last name, and she also seems to have a new nose.
Austen, Naomie, JD and Chelsea are likely all going to need big seasons? Which one delivers the goods.
Whitney’s face during this dinner scene is Priceless — he’s like all of us — but there in person and a producer.
Chelsea calls him a con artist - which, i mean, there’s a strong case for if you follow some of his business exploits
Do we believe that the women in question are 20 years old? or even like 23 and under? JD is like 45? Charleston is a pretty small town?
What’s crazy is JD has had nothing to lose and been able to ride coattails for 3 years — but now they’re out of material and they’re turning the tables on him
JD’s line to close the scene, "Are you all upset with me or something?"
Is the JD getting blasted by the cast Dinner Scene teaser going to be at the very end of the season, the beginning of the season, or will it be a small blip on the radar of a season so explosive, they could waste that teaser and still leave plenty of meat on the bone?
