They get into the latest Housewives episode — the costumes, the glam, the parties, the drinking, and the cast members who know exactly how to keep the show moving. But not everyone seems ready to play along. Christi and Kelly talk about Vicki looking totally miserable, Lisa holding up the bus for glam, and why reality TV ONLY works when the cast understands the job: show up, engage, react, and give everyone something to work with.
