'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Review: Reunion Special, Part 2

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 22:19:59 GMT

After witnessing all the squabbles on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, you kind of wish that these ladies would just call a truce so they can get a long once and for all. It's nearly impossible though because for one thing, it's a TV show and there's just too much beef going on between NeNe and Kim. And in the end, all you really want to see are the crazy catfights that got you hooked in the first place.

Unfortunately, that wish sort of came true in The Real Housewives of Atlanta season 2 reunion show. It's weird because if you've seen the first season's reunion special, much less the other housewives franchise's reunion episodes, you were probably expecting a show that would match, if not exceed, past seasons. Sure it's a refreshing change from all that table-flipping drama but considering how things ended between NeNe and Kim in the finale, this was surely a huge letdown.

Kim, NeNe, Lisa, Sheree and Kandi are back for round two of The Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion special. And while no major table-flipping drama is expected to commence, we can expect that no topic is off the table when Bravo's Andy Cohen questions these ladies for the last time this season.

Otherwise, here's what you need to know about these sun-loving girls of Southern California and the new season.

Not everyone can really go from flaming hot rage to conveniently calm and collected but that's just the kind of thing you can expect on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. There are no rowdy catfights or hair-pulling moments in the first part of the season 2 reunion special, which is a refreshing break from the usual Housewives reunion drama. However, these Atlanta ladies have left Bravo's Andy Cohen with (too much) information for us to mock and poke fun at.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta isn't officially over until we've seen the highly anticipated reunion special that will hopefully tie all the loose ends and answer all our questions from the latest season. As expected, Bravo's Andy Cohen will try to review the highlights of season 2 while addressing several controversial issues between our favorite Atlanta ladies.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Kandi Burruss' Clothing Store Now Open for Business

editor@buddytv.com — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:57:38 GMT

As BuddyTV mentioned previously, The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss is trying to keep herself busy these days in the wake of the death of her former fiance AJ Jewell. And one of the things on her list is her clothing boutique called TAGS, which recently opened for business in Smyrna's West Village.

"I'm still in shock," said Burruss, who has already received supportive letters from fans. "I like to keep busy with stuff like this."

Jewell's to death on October 2 outside an Atlanta nightclub, now that the Fulton County medical examiner has shed new light on Jewell's death.

'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Finale Review: It's Kim Versus NeNe!

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 00:22:12 GMT

It's hard to determine who's telling the truth between NeNe and Kim. Both have convincing arguments though both are not exactly credible sources. And while NeNe has a never ending can of worms to use against Kim, Kim always has her equally crazy bag of retorts to throw back at NeNe. It's all very confusing to say the least and we get a "sort of" final glimpse to their never-ending drama in the second season finale of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

On the other hand, knowing who's telling the truth or who started the feud between NeNe and Kim is useless at this point because neither one of them is willing to apologize. Instead, viewers are treated with some trash-talking fun at its finest.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Preview of Episode 2.13 "Catwalks & Cat Fights"

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Tonight marks the final episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta's second season before we feast our eyes on the much awaited reunion special. Yes, another season is coming to a close but the drama and cat fights are still far from over. And this time, no amount of wine can undo the damage.

For several episodes now, NeNe has been trying to patch things up with Kim (NeNe even talked to her after Kim criticized her husband, worked with her in the alter ego photo shoot, tried to mend Kim'srelationship with the other Atlanta Housewives and introduced Kim to Kandi) but all Kim does is stab NeNe in the back!

Life Must Go on for 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Star Kandi Burruss

editor@buddytv.com — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Kandi Burriss, the newest member of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, is keeping herself busy these days in the wake of the death of her former fiance A.J. Jewell. The multi-platinum selling artist and Grammy-Award winning songwriter is set to release the Kandi Koated Entertainment Presents The Fly Above EP digitally on October 29.

If you've been following The Real Housewives of Atlanta, then you've already heard "Fly Above" in one of the episodes featuring Kandi performing on stage. And according to Kandi, the song is "an anthem that will inspire anyone who is dealing with issues to 'fly above' the drama."

Andy Cohen Explains Why 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Didn't Cut A.J. Scenes

editor@buddytv.com — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Some fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta have been wondering why A.J. Jewell, former fiance of Kandi Burruss, was still included in some of the episodes of the Bravo-docu series even after his death on October 2. The show hasn't exactly portrayed A.J. in a positive light and it doesn't help that Kandi's mother, Joyce, has continuously criticized A.J. in front of millions of viewers. But Bravo's Andy Cohen explains there's a reason for not deleting the scenes involving the deceased A.J.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: A Reconciliation of Sorts

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 00:44:09 GMT

Life is indeed short and it looks like the ladies of The Real Housewives of Atlanta are taking that lesson to heart in "Baby Momma & Daddy Drama," the 12th episode of Bravo docu-drama's second season. In a way, this episode is all about reconciliation and putting the past behind so the ladies could move on with their lives or maybe move on to new drama.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Preview of Episode 2.12 "Baby Momma & Daddy Drama"

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 07:00:00 GMT

What happens when Kim and Sheree team up for some party planning fun? We find out tonight in the episode "Baby Momma & Daddy Drama." When we last saw The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Sheree was planning a party for her new fashion line, Kim continued to pursue her wig business, NeNe put together a painfully ridiculous event called "Heel the Soul," and Kandi signed a record deal with Leonard "L.B." Brooks of Capitol Records in Los Angeles.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Sheree is Still the Head Diva

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 00:32:32 GMT

"It's not He by Dwight, it's She by Sheree, so I'm the head diva in charge!" Sheree tells Dwight in "High Heels & Record Deals," the 11th episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta's second season. From that line alone, you can tell that Sheree isn't the type who would take a backseat, especially when it comes to party planning or her new fashion line. And we see her step up as "head diva" when she puts together a promotional video for her fashion show even though Dwight doesn't think it's a good idea.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: New Details Surface in the Wake of AJ's Death

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:52:53 GMT

Medical examiners still have yet to determine the real cause of Ashley "A.J." Jewell's death, the on-again off-again fiance of The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss. So far, the only thing that has been reported is that he sustained head injuries and was beaten to death during a fight on October 2 just outside The Body Tap Club where he worked. But now new details have emerged, suggesting that Jewell, who was planning to purchase a portion of the club, may have initiated the brawl that caused him his life.

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 16:59:36 GMT

If there are two things most fans can agree on last week's episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, it's that Kim is delusional for thinking that Big Poppa will actually marry her and that Kim is insensitive for blowing off Kandi's show. Basically, Kim sucks! But I must admit that part of why the show is entertaining is because there's always something to mock and poke fun at whenever Kim's around. And we see more of that craziness in tonight's episode called "High Heels & Record Deals."

Bravo Picks Up 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' and 'The Real Housewives of D.C.'

Three months after we last saw The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Bravo decided to finally renew the show for season 2. While the pick up was expected, it was long overdue, considering the show delivered gossip-worthy ratings ever since it premiered in May and has attracted nearly 3 million total viewers during its explosive reunion special, becoming the most watched Housewives reunion special ever.

editor@buddytv.com — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Just when I'm about to report on Kandi Burruss' relationship with her fiance going downhill, another tragedy strikes The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Ashley "A.J." Jewell, who was formerly engaged to Burruss, died from a head injury during a fight Friday night just outside The Body Tap Club where he worked, police confirmed to TV station WSBTV.

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 07:00:00 GMT

The moment Kim Zolciak has been waiting for finally happened on last night's episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. As usual, she takes center stage as she plans her big birthday party. She even decides to include Kandi in the celebration to thank her for all her help with "Tardy for the Party" and because their birthdays are close.

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 08:00:00 GMT

Will NeNe and Kim patch things up? That's not likely to happen, at least not in tonight's episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta called "Better Tardy Than Never." For now, NeNe's trying to distance herself even further from the ladies after her squabble with Kandi and Kim about being excluded in the song "Tardy for the Party."

editor@buddytv.com — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 08:00:00 GMT

No, it's not one of those special reunion episodes. It's just your typical, run of the mill episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta where there's always someone throwing a party that gets almost ruined by someone who's yelling at someone else. Got that? It's pretty complicated at first sight but not if you're used to rowdy drama that is The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

editor@buddytv.com — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 09:00:00 GMT

Big Poppa's back! Well, sort of. We get to hear his name over and over again in tonight's episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta called "Precious Pocketbook," of course courtesy of Kim. For the sake of those who haven't been following this Bravo docu-drama since the first season 1, Big Poppa is Kim's mystery man, who has funded her somewhat lavish lifestyle, buying her $14,000 in diamonds and a $60,000 Cadillac Escalade. They broke up in the last episode of season one.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Kim Zolciak Faces Lawsuit

editor@buddytv.com — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 06:00:00 GMT

After all the hype surrounding Kim's singing career, who would have thought that it will just end up in the gutter? For quite some time now, The Real Housewives of Atlanta has been focusing on the controversial blonde's single "Tardy for the Party" which co-star Kandi helped Kim Britney-ize. In last week's episode alone, we saw how Kandi helped Kim overcome her fear of singing after her futile attempts to pursue a country singing career in the first season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

But it looks like there's more drama involved off-screen on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. RadarOnline.com has learned that Kim is being sued by her music producer, causing her to take her song "Tardy for the Party" off of iTunes on Monday afternoon.
