Melissa and Rebekah take a festive stroll down memory lane with a holiday-themed detour to Graystone Manor. In this special holiday recap, they revisit The Real Housewives of New York, Season 10, Episode 9—aka The Nutcracker Episode—and unwrap all the drama, laughs, and chaos.

Yes, you remember that Nutcracker moment, but this re-watch is packed with surprises: a candlelit cake collision (thanks, Dorinda), an unforgettable blood drive, and a Luann quote so good it needs its own merch line.

Cozy up with your favorite holiday beverage and join us for a sleigh ride of RHONY nostalgia. Plus, stick around for an important announcement about what’s coming in 2025 for CRIMINALITY 2025!

Happily Holidays from Melissa and Rebekah!

Janice Dickinson: World's First Super(lative) Model

Melissa brings us a star-studded episode today—so channel your inner supermodel, strike a pose, and listen up!

When you think of Janice Dickinson, your mind might jump to her unforgettable run on America’s Next Top Model. But there’s so much more to the self purported “world’s first supermodel” than her TV persona. In this episode, Melissa dives into how Janice truly saw her role on the show and what she thought about the way she was portrayed.

From steamy romances with Hollywood hotties, and headline-grabbing lawsuits, to her brave decision to speak out against one of Hollywood’s most infamous predators, Janice’s story is as bold and unapologetic as she is. Get ready for an episode full of revelations and runway-worthy drama!

Here’s what the hosts are watching as of today’s episode:

Melissa: The Later Daters, NETFLIX

Rebekah: Woman of the Hour, NETFLIX

Join us in two weeks for a special holiday episode featuring an iconic CHristmas episode from the Bravo canon!

This episode dives deep into a story that’s far more captivating than anything the RHONY reboot has offered so far. Leave behind Rebecca Minkoff’s lackluster appearance on the show as Rebekah pulls back the curtain on the real intrigue: a journey of ambition, family, and faith, woven through fashion, Scientology, and scandal.

We trace Rebecca Minkoff’s meteoric rise from her early days as a designer, where she struck gold by capturing a cultural zeitgeist, to the helm of a company steeped in the teachings of Scientology. And yes, we’ll unpack the story behind her infamous “Morning After Bag”—though after this episode, you might need more than a purse to help you  recover. But the drama won’t stop there—her family connections take this tale to an entirely new level.

Enter Rebecca’s father, a prominent Scientologist and doctor, whose career became mired in controversy. His practice was linked to not one but two wrongful deaths—tragic losses that many believe could have been entirely avoided. The victims’ stories serve as a stark reminder of the high stakes involved when ambition and ideology intersect.

Here’s what the hosts are watching:

Melissa: St. Dennis, Peacock

Rebekah: All the Housewives!

Melissa gave three clues for the next episode:

Bill Cosby

Ryan Seacrest

Tyra Banks

Melissa is bringing the laughs as she shares the trials and tribulations of our comedy king, Tracy Morgan. From his trauma filled childhood to his turbulent adulthood, Tracy used it all to make him one of the most recognizable names in comedy. Tracy wasn’t just an actor on a show ABOUT a reality show, he was also host on the brief and oft-forgot reality show “Scare Tactics.”

But when he barely survives a life changing accident, Tracy shows us a side of him we’ve never seen before. While grieving a devastating loss and surviving two weeks in a coma, Tracy had to fight not only  for his recovery but for restitution from the corporate giant who played a role in the accident.

Here’s what the hosts are watching as of today’s episode:

Melissa: The Manhattan Alien Abduction, Netflix

Rebekah: English Teacher, Hulu

Rebekah gave three clues for the next episode:

Handbag

New York

RE-PLAY while Melissa and Rebekah travel. We are revisiting the story of PK Hemsley in honor of the RHOBH coming back on November 19, 2024! How does the story change knowing that PK and Dorit have split?

Are you ready for a whale of a tale? You might know him as Dorit’s husband, but Rebekah would like to introduce you to Paul Kemsley, International Man of tax evasion and gambling debts. Oh, he also loves soccer! PK went from a teenaged suit salesman to one of London’s top tycoons, now he is a house husband whom Rebekah and Melissa can’t agree on. Listen with an open mind, a closed wallet, and ask yourself; Is PK Winsome?

For the next episode, Melissa shared 3 clues:

On today’s episode, Rebekah is taking you on a real journey to a reality show you’ve probably never seen and not because it was an early aughts one-hit-wonder, but because it was never actually a show. Wait, what?

Join her as she introduces you to a young man with big dreams, four names, and zero idea of how to produce a reality show —  but he doesn’t let that stop him, because Nik Russian is nothing if not a dreamer. Despite his lack of credentials, 30 willing participants give up their jobs, homes and a year of their lives for a shot at winning big and becoming famous - what could go wrong? Let Rebekah count the ways.

Here’s what the hosts are watching as of today’s episode:

Melissa: Anatomy of Lies, Peacock

Can #MomTok survive a Criminality episode? We’re about to find out because Melissa is diving headfirst into the whirlwind world of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” with a focus on none other than the notorious Taylor Frankie Paul.

Taylor isn't your typical Mormon mom—in fact, her connection to the faith seems more rumor than reality. But what she *is*, is the OG Mom at the center of #MomTok’s rise, fall, and scandalous swinging saga. For years, #MomTok thrived  in one very specific corner of the internet, until a shocking soft-swinging scandal blew up in Utah, grabbing global attention. 

And just when you thought it couldn't get wilder, Taylor’s personal life took center stage—new man, new drama. From cheating accusations and surprise pregnancies to arrests and criminal charges, it’s a non-stop reality TV-level ride. 

But wait—there’s another Mormon mom who went viral in the #MomTok universe for an unforgettable moment that you won’t believe. Melissa breaks it all down, so whether you’re deeply entrenched in #MomTok drama or just catching up, this story has a little something for everyone.

Here’s what the hosts are watching as of today’s episode:

Melissa: Jailbreak, Netflix

Rebekah: Nobody Wants This, Netflix

Rebekah gave three clues for the next episode:

Though she is best known for her brief and bumpy marriage to Charlie Sheen, there’s a lot more to Brooke Mueller and Rebekah wants to share stories and scenes that paint a fuller picture.

Brooke was a Palm Beach socialite turned Hollywood party girl, despite her decidedly lackluster acting resume. She didn’t land great roles but she had money, famous friends, and an insatiable appetite for fun, and sometimes that’s enough to keep you in Hollywood.

On the heels of her tumultuous marriage to Charlie, Brooke made her reality TV debut with her “best friend, Paris, on the Oxygen show, “The World According to Paris.”  ( with friends like Paris, who needs enemies?) Unfortunately, it was Brooke’s off camera activity that seemed to perpetuate her fame and dominate the headlines. Run ins with the law and seveIt was in these high end treatment centers that Brooke made connections that would ultimately place her near the investigation around Matthew Perry’s tragic fatal overdose. 

Whether you question her choices or cheer for her recovery, Brooke Mueller’s Hollywood story isn’t over,we just hope it doesn’t end up a tragedy.

Melissa delights us with a peek into one of TV’s brightest stars — Sherri Shepherd. Her charisma and drive took her from hit show to hit show and soon Sherri was on top of the world — just don’t ask her if it’s round or flat. But as these stories often reveal, the VIEW from the top isn’t all sunshine and rainbows.

Sherri was one of the funniest women on tv, but things at home were anything but happy. Torn between work and caring for her son with special needs, Sherry struggled to make things with work with her first husband leading to their eventual divorce. She remarried and what follows with husband number two landed Sherri and her husband in court over a battle about surrogacy and parental responsibility.

In an episode chock full of great tv clips and one decent Ba-ba Wa-Wa impression, this episode will also make you ponder what you might do in a similar situation.

Here’s what the hosts are watching as of today’s episode:

Melissa: Chimp Crazy, MAX

Rebekah: Pop Star Academy, Netflix
