This week we dive into the Summer House premiere — saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. There’s a striking age difference in the cast now, but surprisingly, the mix works and the energy feels fresh.

Our one plea to the Bravo gods: please don’t make us sit through another season of Amanda and Kyle fighting. We all know what happens in the end and we don't need to see every passive aggressive comment. Get naked Amanda! And yes… we miss Lindsay and Paige.

Over on The Valley, Skye is fully in her villain era, which somehow has us rooting for GG. And GG — please get your storyline straight! Do you want Dennis around or not?!? The audience is confused.

And finally, Traitors — keep the momentum going. Get every last Traitor out.
