The supersized finale of “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” reunion was worth every extra minute.
You gotta hand it toAndy Cohen.
The greatest one-season wonder inHousewivesherstory.

But first, the basics.
Monica didn’t think that the account went after the other women, at least not directly.
Of course, Heather is no hero either, but more on that later.

You posted it!"
That is, in between insulting Monica’s ability to argue.
She’s got a point.

The book contains printed-out screenshots of everything Reality Von Tease posted…to what end?
Doesn’t really matter.
“I’m kind of amazed that you’resosurprised that they’re pissed off by this,” Andy says.
And why didn’t Monica just lead with the truth?
“I think both can be true,” she responds.
“What is wrong with me wanting to sit on this couch?!”
Monica asks/screams at Heather.
“You don’t think I belong here?”
Monica knows she doesn’t belong there.
She knows she lied and cheated her way onto the show, which is why she gets so defensive.
Which, if true, is admittedly very impressive.
Like, Netflix miniseries impressive.
But the more this goes on, the weirder it all gets.
Is Monica a pathological liar?
Is she a sociopathic stalker?
Are we too comfortable as a society in diagnosing the mental health of strangers?
Or is she a single mother who wanted a better life for her kids?
He knows Monica is a great Housewife, even if her other qualities are…questionable.
“Okay…,” Monica says dismissively.
And you would get higher caliber women willing to expose their lives on television."
“So someone like me doesn’t belong here?”
Monica has never felt good enough or worthy enough to be on this show.
Yet Monica is largely responsible for injecting some new and much-needed life into this series.
Even if through deceptive means.
‘Cause he really wants her back next season.
Still, time, and blockbuster ratings, heal all wounds.
Heather appreciates that, but there’s a long road to healing for all involved.
