I watched:

POLICE LAUNCH MASSIVE MANHUNT FOR A MAN WHO DID DONUTS ON A STREET PRIDE FLAG MURAL:
Police in Florida are on a manhunt to track down the dangerous criminal who 
left tire marks on a rainbow-colored crosswalk.
https://youtu.be/4Bbuf63WBik?si=JE2J4674KQHZEdf1

VANDERPUMP RULES:
"Plot Twist". Scheana performs live for the first time with her band; Katie 
clashes with Jo over a year's worth of grievances; Ariana takes Dan to lunch 
with her friends; the fourth wall is left shattered when Tom approaches 
Ariana for a conversation.

Zzzz... oh, I must have fallen asleep! This was definitely an underwhelming 
"finally" that ended with a lame sad musical montage. 

• Was Schemer performing in San Fran? I thought they were, but what was 
  Billie and the girl Sandoval dated once doing there?

• I am angry at Katie for being a bitch to Jo. Ditto for her asshole friend 
  who was dressed like a giant banana and called Jo a crackwhore when she 
  approached.

• Nice latex shirt, Brach.

• LaLa broke the 4th wall about Ariana's attitude, but there was a good 
  amount of projection in her rant.

• Did Ariana tell the producer her biggest beef with Sandoval was that he 
  gave her VD?

• I could have sworn I saw someone (Billie?) throwing a chair at Schemer's 
  performance in the season preview.

VANDERPUMP RULES:
"Reunion, part 1". Sandoval finds himself on the defensive when he gets 
called out for his poor decisions in the press. While Ariana builds a life on 
Broadway with her new boyfriend, questions remain about what to do with the 
shared house in L.A. Scheana and Brock discuss the turbulence in their 
marriage. Everyone is brought to tears as Brock describes the impact Scheana 
and Summer have had on his life. Lala challenges Katie’s authenticity about 
her feelings toward Ariana.  

VANDERPUMP RULES:
"Reunion, Part 2".  The season 11 reunion continues when Ally and Jo join the 
group and Andy Cohen presses Scheana and Schwartz for details on their secret 
makeout in Vegas. Ariana opens up about the disconnect she felt with Scheana 
after the Lake Tahoe trip. Katie makes a surprising revelation about her 
"revenge bang" with Schwartz's best friend. Lala blows up on Schwartz for 
continuing to gaslight Jo about their relationship. Ally reflects on her 
future with James and sets clear boundaries for his behavior. Sandoval draws 
James' fury when he suggests Mya doesn't belong to Ariana.

Of course, since there are three parts to the reunion, this one would be 
snoozefest.

* I had partially forgotten how incestuous this group is, so of course 
Schemer has "made out" with everyone in the group and Katie banged Max more 
than once.

* Speaking of Katie, she really is an assassin of joy, isn't she? What a 
vicious bitch. She owes Jo a real apology for how she treated her. 

* Katie's ugly dress was super distracting. It's all I could see, a wardrobe 
malfunction waiting to happen.

* I like Schwartz, but really dude, can you just tell Jo where you two stand?

* If Ally charges $1.95 per hour for her astrology sessions, she is 
overcharging by a lot.

* I'm glad Andy pointed out that Ariana is a slob for leaving those chicken 
skewers on her nightstand, but I was beyond tired of "Doggie-gate" by the end 
of that episode. Does it really matter who left the door open? Leaving bad 
things for a dog around and hoping someone keeps the door closed is foolish.

* Speaking of which, I really dislike Anne for some reason, so I really 
didn't give a shit about her trying to work for Ariana while being Sandoval's 
maid.

* I don't give a shit about Schemer's issue with being on DWtS and her 
"music".

VANDERPUMP RULES:
"Reunion, Part 3".  Ariana breaks her no contact rule with Sandoval, leaving 
both in tears; Scheana defends her actions and suggests her rift with Ariana 
started well before the summer; Katie blames Sandoval for the downfall of her 
relationship with Schwartz.

I was underwhelmed, especially with all their "meta" talk. There were a 
couple things said that caught my attention, Lisa Vanderbucks saying 
something about her husband and mistress making an appearance at the RHoBH 
reunion, and Dan, Ariana's new boyfriend, didn't want to be seen on the show 
with her unless he got paid. 

What did you watch?
