Scott D. Pierce: “The Housewives themselves don’t entirely get this, but we’re usually laughing at them, not with them.”
Lisa Barlow, Whitney Rose, Jen Shah, Heather Gay and Meredith Marks in "The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City."The appeal of all the “Real Housewives” series is, to a large extent, that they are funny and often campy. Even the fights and feuds generally have at least a bit of humor to them. It’s amusing to see these rich women going after each other.
But Jen was not the only problem. Season 3 has been dominated by mean-spirited nastiness. It’s as if the cast members were advised that it was in their best interest to be combative and even vicious. Add in the unsatisfying, unexplained and unresolved plot lines, and maybe there’s a reason that the Utah version of “Real Housewives” is generally the least watched on Bravo.• The Meredith vs. Lisa war has gotten completely out of hand.
• The actions of Angie Harrington’s husband, Chris — he created a fake Instagram pager to troll Lisa and Jen, and Jen said it drove her to attempt suicide — were simply heinous. And yet they were mostly glossed over by both Angie H. and the show itself. Somehow, Heather Gay is going to end up with a black eye on "The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City."
I’m willing to give the producers a bit of a break on that, however. During production of most of Season 3, Jen was still innocent until proven guilty. It was bad for the show when she pleaded guilty a couple of months before the season started airing, giving us a lot of lies and killing any suspense.
