I admit I turned my nose up at Southern Charm for a while but once I caught a show mid-season i was IN, hook, line, sinker, hot messes and all. Forget Landon and Patricia - I want to be your BFF. If only your hubby would move back to Texas imagine all the fun we could have and the trouble we could find together :) I think of you every time I go to homegoods. Well, except today. I crazily took my three boys to HG and about lost my mind. Its a fact jack because I walked about from the biggest double happiness pots EVER because I was sure i'd break them all trying to keep up with my three. The things we do for our kids.

I think my keen interest initially in the series was the fact it was shot in Charleston (heaven on earth). But, I got hooked and I too, was very disappointed in Andy's reunion show. I will just add that Whitney just plain out gives me the creeps. Cameran is my favorite and I used to like Shep, but again, I have to agree with you. Get off your duff and do something for Pete's Sake!!! I enjoy your blog so much. I read it each day before my own sister's blog. Shhh...don't tell her.

I didn't feel like we saw nearly enough of Patricia's gorgeous home, or any other of the terrific historic homes this season. By the way, did you notice Carolyn Roehm on the back of Patricia's golf cart as they were being driven into the big charity gala? I thought that was pretty funny, but then they never really showed another shot of her. So glad you thought the same things I did regarding the reunion show!Debbi Benedicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07022947175251684855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-459018932772057756.post-66023228480874310092015-06-10T04:48:32.529-07:002015-06-10T04:48:32.529-07:00Paige..

I do...A spot-on recap! I love Southern Charm too. <br />I don't know how long Landon lived in CA but she picked up some sort of Valley Girl/Orange County accent that I find a bit annoying.<br />I do love Patricia's sunglasses worn indoors - tres chic. Whitney is a character - just like his mom. <br />Nothing about Shep would lead anyone to think that he's 35 yrs old.<br />I wonder what Craig's parents thought when they watched the show this season??

For example, the charity auction featured in the finale wasn't exclusive. It was open to everyone, but over at 10 pm when the majority of the filming took place. Also, Whitney (not Andy) is the executive producer of the show which is why he likes to keep the drama going and probably why Andy treats them like red-haired step-children. (Kathryn is such an easy target for Whitney to poke.)

I have to agree with your opinion on most of the cast members with the exception of Landon....I could not stand the way she squinted up her eyes and giggly talking! I also agree that they were treated like red headed step children at the so-called reunion....they deserved a much better setting. Wow, that Whitney, he's something else, not to mention his man-crush on T-Rav. Speaking of T-Rav, what was up with that red blazer and big honking ears? I used to think he was pretty nice looking but he sure looked bad at the reunion. I'm going to send you a link via email for an interesting site you can read all about Southern Charm. I think you'll enjoy it. I also agree with Leslie Anne (Fairhope Supply) that we're so tired down here in the South of being pegged as barefoot, toothless hillbillies when this show is a much better representation of my beloved South. <br /><br />I started a draft post weeks ago on this show so don't be surprised if you see it pop up on my blog (eventually).
