SOUTHERN CHARM It's baaaaack! - BACK AGAIN

Will it be chronicling their exploits in prison ?

What's their offense? Other than being offensively pointless.

very boring this year, said to be its last.

Someone give the black chick a storyline, she gots nothin to say....zzzzzzzzz

I'd never heard of Auldbrass before - but it seems to follow the pattern, FLW homes don't appear to age very well. Even after extensive reno, it looks rather crufty.

So did Whitney and Naomie just make out or did they actually fuck?

I love Craig, and fully admit he is a child. But all of them are. Watching S4 yesterday reminded me of how shitty Naomie was to him, even in couple's counseling. And remembering her hero worship of Metul soon after put's me firmly on Craig's side. That said, I don't think Craig and Paige are endgame.

R209 repost

It's cool, I'll talk to myself.

The guys were really beating up on Craig this week (I just caught up yesterday) with their bullshit about him wanting to be accepted by Charleston society. He could take his pillow business anywhere at this point (and probably should).

Whitney (who produces this gem) clearly asked Naomi to play beard to appease Patricia. He won't come out until Miss P is long gone.

R210 repost

Craig was always a joke to these assholes and an easy target. Now he’s successful and they can’t stand it. Especially Shemp.

R211 repost

Someone started a thread on this video. I give her and Craig 6 months.

R212 repost

[quote] I give her and Craig 6 months.

She's totally playing Craig, clearly she's in it for the visibility. That's why she's so chill and supportive. Goes without saying she's much smarter than Naomie.

Those don't look like Sewing Down South pillows.

Marcie looks great in her confessionals which were obviously shot after the baby and the baby weight.

R12 Is she drinking yet?

So next week we get a Paige/Naomi confrontation. Shemp is truly despicable. Taylor needs to run. Austen and Craig need to fuck. Again.

kathryn is repulsive.

R15 Does seem like she works to amp it up. An early episode this season where she gets sloshed at her own party, starts drunkenly telling people off, with her make-up smeared, and her tiara all twisted. Doesn't seem to phase her that there are cameras focused on her. Even after she's sobered up. Maybe she just knows how to stay reality show "relevant".

Paige to Craig, "If I break up with you, you'll never see me again". Craig appropriately stunned.

Very cool. Paige just please be sure to do it on camera.

Craig! If you don’t want drama with your ex then don’t fuck her and tell your new girlfriend!

Venita not invited again lol.

[quote] Austen and Craig need to fuck.

I'm a bit older than the SC cast - do normal straight guys of this generation have hissy fit arguments, publicly state that they're breaking up as friends - then make up and express their love for one another?

I'm not familiar with this behavior, even among gay men. I can't tell if it's progress or just weird.

It’s odd but both of them also talk about their feelings in general more than most men, gay or straight

No surprise Venita was left off the invite list. She has no rapport with the rest of the cast, and constantly race baits others. She also thinks that people don’t like her because of race but it’s because she is unpleasant and hard to get to know.

Kind of surprised production didn’t force them to include Venita since she’s a cast member and should attend all gatherings but I guess you can’t force people to film with someone they don’t want to be around. Craig and everyone else’s reactions to Craig is highly entertaining. Now I’m craving banana pudding made with Chessmen cookies.

They would know the ratings from last year when she was antagonizing people. She might have had a chance at first to become a bonafide part of things but she came on so strong and shrill that they would this year only be keeping her on as a token.

Multiple adult native English speakers who have never heard, and do not know then meaning or usage of the word "gait"? So charming.

Lol that was pretty funny. Some have post-graduate degrees too.

R26 And one who as an experienced horse rider you'd expect might know.

Craig is the gift that keeps on giving. Tonite’s dinner party at Patricia’s was hilarious. And, yup, nobody trusts Venita anymore.

I wonder if Bravo would have the GUTS to fire Venita from the show?

I really wish they would.

She's a horrible cast member. No one likes her. And she serves no purpose.

They're so chickenshit, though. And probably afraid of backlash.

Do it, Bravo. DO IT!!!

If Venita wasn’t invited to Friendsgiving then the majority of the cast probably won’t film with her. I have a feeling we’ll see a lot less of her as the season progresses.

she is tacky, just so repulsive and boring......

Lady please dont party when ur pregnant, u know what happens.

I kind of like Naomie this season. I don’t think she wants Craig back but it’s clear Craig isn’t quite over her.

Paige is so tacky and insecure. Craig is getting played by this cunt

Paige is making a career out of being an influencer and a reality show twat. Craig is sweet but dumb. She’ll move on eventually and leave him crying into his pillows.

From reading some reality tea site, it sounds like a falling out happens more with Leva at the end vs venita. Or maybe as well as venita. She stopped following them all after the reunion show and made some snide comments about people not being happy for her success. We now know why she stopped following venita and Madison, next week it sounds like something happens with Austen, she was likely just a frenemy of Catherine but why Craig and the others too?

It’s so weird how venita stands out as awkward and not fitting in at all though. I hope this leva died coming up doesn’t redeem venita. It does likely mean they will keep her longer though.

The Naomi / Whitney romance is so phoney looking lol.

[quote] The Naomi / Whitney romance is so phoney looking lol.

They're two cast members looking for a story line.

Naomi has no one. Whitney has no one.

So they must have collaborated behind the scenes.

The only problem is that it's completely unbelievable.

Pat's dinner parties are always so campy.

I loved when she said she was "shitfaced" and called Craig a B-list Fuckboy. Hahahahahaha.

Craig is such a mess.

First he spills red wine on a $45,000 white couch, and then he breaks her re-upholstered $2000 dinner table chair!

That whole dinner was hilarious. Much funnier than the all-female night out.

[quote] Pat's dinner parties are always so campy.

I got the sense that they were all acknowledging that this is the final one - at least for the show. I'd have to re-watch to identify what exactly gave that impression.

Still as much of an ass, Shep is looking looking better physically this season. While Craig degrades.

When Taylor started talking about God wrt her relationship with Shep - just the look on their faces. Oh my, the poor girl.

WHITNEY IS GAY FOR GODS SAKE

So why is Whitney pushing a romance with Naomi?

Whitney created and EP's the show. He's throwing anything he can against the wall to make something stick, in hopes of keeping the train rolling. Including a bearding arrangement with Naomie.

I'm sure he'll come out after Patricia dies and the will is probated.

R42: YES WE KNOW!

Craig and Austen were on WWHL love last night. They must be in town to film the reunion. They both insisted the Naomie/Whitney thing is true and not staged. Of course they’re both clueless morons so who knows.

The producers keep introducing non-whites but the core cast and the audience rejects them each time. We only care about the trashy whitey whites.

I watch Southern Charm for the original cast.

The fact that they're all white, means nothing to me.

They all had pre-existing relationships and are now friends with inter-mingling lives.

Adding a POC into the cast just to say "look, our cast is diverse!" is just ridiculous.

In this case, Venita stands out like a sore thumb. She just doesn't fit in with this group.

Craig and Austen looked great on WWHL.

Andy and the whole Austen wants to see Craig’s dick talk was clearly giving him a boner.

Haven't seen the WWHL episode yet.

Is it the consensus that Craig & Austen are both just averagely hung? We've seen Austen pulling at his lil pokey, and Madison constantly referred to his lack of BDE. Craig appeared stricken and ashamed when Paige relayed that the other reality guy she was fucking has a big dick. Thomas seems to be the only SC cast member of size.

Whitney is packin’ and he knows how to use it!

R52 Like he knows how to play the guitar.

Venita is cursed with a lot of Gen Z kids with zero social skills as she lives on her phone and social media. They can't have uncomfortable conversations and never apologize and be accountable cause its their "truth" and "journey"

R50 Andy: And Austen you've never seen Craig's dick. And you want to, don't you?

Austen: Does that make me weird?

No, that makes you gay.

I so want to see Austen and Craig hook up.

There's a lot of sexual tension between them.

Btw, what's on tap for tonight's episode?

💃 Oh, Darlin' ... I do declare, Good Ol' Southern Charm nevah, evah went away!

Craig and Austen are effeminate straight males, who are in abundance in Charleston.

Where’s Pringle? He disappeared early in the season.

According to Deux-moi, Naomi is already with a different guy. He is apparently quite a bit older and very wealthy….but not Whitney.

I think Pringle was always just a friend of type. It would have been more interesting to see Naomi hook up with him.

Maybe more scenes of him just never made the edits.

[quote] Naomi is already with a different guy

Craig really dodged a bullet with this bitch.

She's so dirty.

And Craig really tried hard with her.

Venita tried sooooooo hard to fit in tonite. Next week her buddy Naomi tells her to shut up and Craig and Shep get into a scuffle. Praise Leva for skipping the trip to stay home with her kid. She has her priorities straight.

[quote] Andy and the whole Austen wants to see Craig’s dick talk was clearly giving him a boner.

You are SO making that up!

Picture, or it never happened.

[quote] Craig appeared stricken and ashamed when Paige relayed that the other reality guy she was fucking has a big dick.

Are you talking about Carl from "Summer House?"

This guy?

If it is Carl, he admitted to being sucked off by a guy before. But no one told me he has a big dick!

Paige was also dating this other guy named Perry Rahbar.

Sounds Middle Eastern, so he could have a big one too.

So we're just going to ignore the scene where Shep is basically lusting after Austen's big juicy jock booty??

He had to get off and show it off at dinner. In a fucking restaurant no less!

I want to eat Austen's big, juicy ass.

Is that so wrong?

Did Craig have a botched nose job? It’s looking really pinched lately.

Ba ba doo

Ba ba dee

[quote] This guy?

No it's the Italian guy, Adrien Denver?, whatever his assumed modeling name is.

He's big.

Austen is a douche but totally fuckable.

Is it me or has Craig developed a real drinking problem lately? The guys trip to Austen's childhood home when Shep, Craig, and Austen stayed at a hotel while Austen did his Stew Leonard's pitch (or some other chain). The first thing Craig did was go to the mini-bar. He opened a bottle of red wine just before he called Paige. Then, at the bar, he had some mixed drink whose name I can't remember.

In last night's episode, he was doing shots of something (was it Jager?) and shots of tequila. At Patricia's, he was drinking bourbon and then switched to red wine. I know I'm old but, even when I was young, I couldn't mix all those liquors without a serious sour stomach the next day.

I think they’re all heavy drinkers but hold their liquor better than Craig.

Didn't Craig & Austen become famous on social media during the pandemic for getting nearly blackout drunk?

Craig has always been a heavy drinker.

In season one, he clearly said that's why he liked Charleston. Because of the drinking culture.

A young guy can handle it, but as he gets older, it's starting to age him.

I mentioned in the Southern Charm Part I thread that Craig said he even has a beer tap and bar in the showroom of his pillow shop!

Does he drink because he doesn't want to face his samesex attraction?

Between T-Rav and Whitney being on the DL, Shep getting dudes to blow him while drunk, Shep loving Austen's ass ( and Craig at one point), Austen craving a peek at Craig's dick, Craig's whispers of gay hookups, the show is pretty homoerotic.

Not to mention their FLAMBOYANT outfits.

They drink because they know that they are boring as hell and that the only way they can be interesting for the cameras is if they are shitfaced. It also helps excuse away abhorrent behavior (“it wasn’t rape….. I was just too drunk and got too rough with her….”)

They need to stop cycling through all these random females and bring in a group of young buck professionals who go to work every day and still party all night. Watching the ensuing meltdown of the OG Charmers would be great TV.

Vanderpump Rules tried this, and it failed.

People watch the show for the OG's.

They're the ones who made the show popular.

No one cares about the new young bloods, because they just seem thirsty to be famous.

Now Vanderpump Rules is done.

Southern Charm still has much of the OG cast in place, so they need to keep them together, but introduce interesting new characters, and slowly work them into the fold.

They did it successfully with Austen and Madison.

But they also need to dump the boring or disliked new cast members, like Venita and Leva and Naomie.

Are you new r81? Because Naomie isn’t.

Please tell me these people are not the real upper echelon of Charleston society.

I’m guessing Patricia, her son and Thomas are the real deal. Not buying the rest of them. Shep and Austen are in a good position to marry up. Craig and the rest of them seem once removed from hillbillies.

Would love to go there sometime. The town seem seems like a movie set.

Shep’s family has “Fuck You Money”

[quote] Not to mention their FLAMBOYANT outfits.

Pringle to Austen at Olivia's pool party,

"You've got to have a big swinging dick to wear a pair of pants like that."

What's so fascinating about Craig's dick? And why is he fighting Luke in Winter House?

Thomas has seen Craig's dick. Many times. And felt Craig's smooth white ass in his hands. Thomas's stay in prison had raised a whole new set of desires in him, and he easily compelled the youthful Craig to lay with him.

Craig quickly loses his erection when being fucked. And seminal fluid runs from his soft penis, just like water.

why does craig alwys sound like he jus did ten lines o blow....?

Oops wrong thread?

R88, keep in mind TRav was doing coke and men at his all-male parties before he got arrested, so there's that.

Thanks, I was unaware. Wonder if there are any TRav dic pics floating around out there?

More on the Trav tea please. That’s very vague and sparse.

TRav eventually overplayed it, constantly in those white polo pants. With the paunch and the bulge.

Great episode tonight! Why is next week already the finale! It was just hitting its stride!

The old Naomie is back full force. Thinks she is always right, nasty to others. I’ve hated venita all season but tonight I remembered how Naomie was when she was with Craig.

Also I can’t believe the preview of next week. leva called Craig a clown and said she was actually talking to the people who run his business because he doesn’t. At his own party. In front of everyone. . Like what a bitch.

Venita might fit in if the producers had her stage an event or invite the cast to her home. We might meet her POC friends, if she has any. Maybe they don’t want the expense a production for a minor character wound involve.

[quote] Venita might fit in if the producers had her stage an event or invite the cast to her home

Nobody would show up.

It's pretty clear that they don't like Venita, and they don't want to be friends with her.

Yet production keeps forcing her into the group.

I love that this friend group doesn't bow to production's demands, and ices her out any way.

Yeah it would be good if she threw a party. Maybe next season if she is back. And I bet she will be as I think Leva will be out the door.

I rewatched Season 3 on Bravo today. Damn but skinny Craig was hot! Leva popped up as a friend of Cam. Kathryn was coherent back then but the show wasn’t as much fun as it is now. TRav was a nasty piece of shit and he dominated every episode. Sorry to see this season end but next weeks episode looks epic.

Craig is flogging some Crypto-Web3-NFT service on his IG Reels - trying to recruit suckers to join him on his crypto "journey".

He's been doing really well with his investments. Oh, until about a month ago - no one told him to dump his holdings. It's fairly ridiculous. You wonder how much of his pillow pushing success is due to those who are making the real business decisions.

[quote] You wonder how much of his pillow pushing success is due to those who are making the real business decisions.

Pillow pushing or pillow biting?

[quote] At his own party. In front of everyone.

Sucks when what everyone knows is actually spoken out loud.

[quote] Great episode tonight! Why is next week already the finale!

Biggest disappointment of the season, not enough Pringle. Hope he at least gets an invite to Craig's SDS affair.

What's the chance that Craig will get wasted, then get offended, then get mad, and then storm off from his own party. Nothing worse than a petty drunk.

Craig has been a drunk mess this season. He's clearly unhappy about more than just being around Naomie. Can't stand Paige.

That said, when he and Austen were on WWHL he seemed much more like his old self.

Time to cut Katherine (and Chleb) and Leva and Venita loose. Cam's genuine friendship with Whitney, Shep and Craig is sorely missed.

[quote] Craig has been a drunk mess this season. He's clearly unhappy about more than just being around Naomie.

Closet case.

Katharine, Leva and Madison were barely on this season and Chleb was disposed of quickly. Thank God! I’ve grown to like Olivia a lot. Taylor is a sweetheart. Miss Pat’s cameo’s were priceless. This was a very entertaining season.

[quote] This was a very entertaining season.

Make each episode centered around either a trip or a party or both. Marinate in alcohol.

News to me, Paige and a female friend have a podcast, where they basically sit around and talk shit about everything for an hour a week. Called Giggly Squad. Apparently it's popular to the degree that they have merchandise, and enough followers to fill auditoriums on their cross country Live Tour shows. Tickets still available for the Atlanta show in Nov., sorry the $99 seats are sold out.

Paige De Sorbo?

Can anyone comment on Craigs nose?

It blows.

Is there an obvious before and after or is that just my imagination.

Do any DL people live in there? What is it really like there?

[quote] Is there an obvious before and after or is that just my imagination.

There's a very extensive photographic and video record going back more than 8 years. Check it out, if there's evidence it will be easy to find.

Besties!

What’s the deal with Paige and Hannah suddenly? I thought Hannah left summerhouse a few seasons ago. She never had her wedding and Paige couldn’t stand her. But now they seem to be a double act, doing events and podcasts together. Paige is doing crossovers with SothernnCharm, and is back on winter house soon. What does she need Hannah for?

Makes me believe even more that the Craig /Paige romance isn’t real/ os just a publicity stunt.

Not a watcher of the Summer/Winter House shows - just seemed like a cast of losers, considering their ages. But I guess I'm wrong if they're all parlaying it into money making ventures.

Enty posted on his site that Craig and Paige were a fauxmance and they had other people they were really interested in/dating.

Craig seems truly smitten. Paige is clearly pulling the strings.

Somebody gonna get hurt.

Naomie can be cunty but I’d take her over generic, bland Paige.

I feel sorry for Venita. She clearly doesn't fit in with this cast.

Everyone walks on eggshells around her because of what she will do and say.

The producers need to do us all a favor and get rid of her.

Now that Naomie (her one and only friend) will announce that they're not friends any more, Venita will have no one.

Craig's party looks like it will be fun. He's quite the diva. Telling Naomie "You're not invited!" and telling Leva "Security will escort you out!" Haha. What a queen.

Do you think that Craig and Austen are secret lovers right before our eyes? They seem like more of a couple than they do with their female partners.

Maybe Craig and Austen are hiding in plain sight?

Oh, and what happened to Kathryn? I missed the past four or five episodes, and suddenly she's gone. I haven't seen her anywhere.

Did she quit the show?

[quote] Do you think that Craig and Austen are secret lovers

I guess it would be theoretically possible if he's getting fucked from behind, for Austen to never have seen Craig's dick.

Kathryn, Madison and Pringle have had limited screen time this season.

Craig is a drunken asshole. He was an embarrassment tonite. I didn’t see cunt Paige in the reunion coming attractions but Leva is there.

It was . . . interesting that Whitney didn't sit with Naomie. Honestly, Craig should have had his employees/business partner sit with him since it was a Christmas party for the COMPANY. He turned it into a Christmas party for his friends with employees there as an afterthought.

Can't wrap my mind around Taylor quitting her job to travel with Shep and SHOCKINGLY, they break up when the money runs out.

Craig’s business partners were snickering at his ridiculous outburst. He’s a fool. And how did Kathryn’s cute twink date end up sitting next to Craig at dinner. Hmm????

No Pringle at the party?

That dinner was a shitshow, but kind of fun. Olivia is my MVP for the season. Looks like Shep gets permanent induction into the asshole hall of fame at the reunion.

Shemp is scum and Taylor is better off without him. And don’t fuck with Olivia. Love that she had Leva’s back. Paige just sat there rolling her eyes. Pat popped in for a quick cocktail and left. Naomie and Craig got the prime seats at the reunion.

Did Olivia go after Madison? Is she getting territorial about Austen? Is Ian flooding Charleston right now?

Madison made a snide remark about Leva and Olivia called her out and left the table. Madison is a twat.

Olivia is a lesbian. She may not admit it to herself yet. But she is a lesbian. I'd bet bigly on it.

So Whitney is really taking Viagra to fuck Naomi?

The closest Whitney has come to a vagina is when changing "Miss Pat's" adult diapers.

Enty posted the info here:

Of course there were many guesses for Craig as well.

R132. My money is on Shemp

Madison and Katherine factored so little in this season, it seemed odd to see them at the reunion. Taylor came with her speeches prepared. Woman scorned.

katherine is broke, leva is a bummer with her bad energy. craig carrys the show.....austin is Hung.

^^^ Austen looks like he'd be packin'.

DUMP Venita.

Her entire existence on the show is about race.

She's such a bummer, and brings the show down.

I don't want to see her on Southern Charm any more.

On LSA, someone said they met Shep at a bar and he was drunk and went on a tirade on how he thought Craig was gay.

Venita was barely acknowledged during the reunion so she probably won’t be invited back. I hope Taylor comes back. I like her.

R138. Is that the same Shep who’s obsessed with Austin’s ass?

R140 - LOL yes. But like Taylor, he is never held accountable for anything so he can be a closeted bi/gay who throws Craig under the bus. It's so Shep.

^^meant " like Taylor said" -- Also noted she said that Shep has masturbated through 300!! women. Never connecting or loving any of these women. If a man goes through women by the dozens to "masturbate" is he straight? Or something else.

Taylor is clearly hung up on Shep and Shep is like, “Have we met?”

Sad

They definitely don't need Taylor back next season. She's lovely, but is way out of her league on reality TV.

I’m shocked that Paige didn’t make an appearance at the reunion.

craig is gay it seems.....venita is huge bore....austin is fun when drunnk and hung.....katherine is prob fired. whitney/kath storyline total made up, is he gai? hmmmmm

Its said Paige has the intelligence of a turtle.

So is SOUTHERN COMFORT supposed to be another VANDERPUMP RULES? Leva is a big bore so the rest of the cast had better bring it.

Keep that fake bitch bad mommy Kathryn away from me !

Omg Leva is the worst. Who cast her?????

well somebody gotta be bottom o da barrel, n she is.

Keep that fukin bad mommy and makeup whore away from me. KATHRYN.
