The ladies of Orange County are sharpening their claws (and probably their lawyers’ contact lists) for the upcoming three-part reunion of “The Real Housewives of Orange County,” premiering Thursday, November 7 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo. Expect the usual mix of rehashed arguments, tearful apologies (maybe), and enough dramatic accusations to fill a Botox syringe.
Based on Bravo’s preview, this reunion looks to be a doozy. Shannon Storms Beador’s DUI and subsequent conflicting accounts will undoubtedly be a major topic of conversation. Meanwhile, newcomer Katie Ginella finds herself in the hot seat over “shocking headlines” and her daughter’s social media antics. Because when you’re a Housewife, your kids’ online presence is fair game. And let’s not forget the FBI investigation involving Jennifer Pedranti’s fiancé, which will surely add some extra spice to the proceedings.

Returning “friend of” Alexis Bellino will also grace the reunion stage, likely to rekindle old feuds and maybe offer some insightful commentary.
The reunion will hopefully give us some insight into the fractured friendship between Shannon and Tamra Judge. Will they mend fences, or will this be the final nail in the coffin? Honestly, at this point, who can even keep track?
I’m not going to pretend that these reunions are high art. They’re messy, they’re often ridiculous, and they occasionally make me question the future of humanity. But they’re also undeniably entertaining.
