People aren't especially reticent when it comes to The Real Housewives of Dallas.
The emails that hit my inbox are about 6 to 1 in favor of deleting it from the face of the Earth. I'm usually hesitant to point this out, but if you're able to critique it thusly, then you're watching it, buddy. Cast member Cary Deuber said it before. And here, let her say it again: "You either love-watch it or hate-watch it, but you'll watch it."
Now that we're at the halfway point, I thought I'd go to the bastion of commentary that is the Internet to see what people really think. That's right, I went to Twitter. Read on.
Breakout star LeeAnne Locken is easily the most divisive of the bunch, even on the show.
They love her.
I just watched LeeAnne Locken shove a cameraman, smack a trolley, remove her shoes and walk barefoot in the road. LEGEND #RHOD

They hate her.
If @LeeAnneLocken has 5 sides, which one is her good side? #RHOD @stephhollman @BrandiRedmond https://t.co/Jcti06KtvX

Seriously idk what's worse: @LeeAnneLocken blush or her attitude #RHOD

Catching up on #RHOD; this @LeeAnneLocken girl is a holy mess. I think she hates the wealthy and is mad that they have more than she does.

Good thing there are four other cast members.
Sweet Stephanie Hollman, feisty Brandi Redmond, cool-as-a-cucumber Cary Deuber and ride-or-die chick Tiffany Hendra aren't spared, either.
@stephhollman @BrandiRedmond @ Andy can we get a road show w these two normal and funny fabulous friends? #real #rhod

But there are some who are unabashed in their love for it all, though they can't quite explain why.
They are here for everything.
And they lay their guilty pleasure out there for all to see.
I'm so weirdly obsessed with #RHOD and I feel like no one understands pic.twitter.com/jKMJFzGBzm

Can't wait for this week's ep! I'm sure I'll watch it 4 times too!😂 #RHOD https://t.co/Vq1Y1BoJxK

But there are some who strongly disagree.
@iRealHousewives The worst housewives franchise. #RHOD
— Tina Marie (@TinaAmari) May 1, 2016
I wonder if the "D" in #RHOD stands for dullness. This show is about as fun as watching a cactus grow in the #Texas desert.
— Michael (@RealDoubleMs) May 1, 2016
Entire conversations about it, even.
@julieQ I feel we need to discuss #RHOD and by 'discuss' I mean 😴😴
— thatShortchick (@thatShortchick) May 1, 2016
@julieQ exactly! t's truly a housewives first in that NONE of them are likable
— thatShortchick (@thatShortchick) May 2, 2016
And there's even some friendly fire.
Speaking of throwing tantrums, hahaha I GOT BLOCKED! #RHOD pic.twitter.com/XtjuVXbce2
— Marie Reyes (@TheMarieReyes) May 8, 2016
I hope LeeAnne’s emotional performance at @DineTaverna gets her to @TheEmmys #fakecry #RHOD pic.twitter.com/UfNJUrFSmS
— Marie Reyes (@TheMarieReyes) May 10, 2016
Others just want the show to clean up a little.
They're looking at you, Brandi Redmond and Stephanie Hollman. Even TV Guide got a jeer in.
@LeeAnneLocken will #RHOD be about pooh talk and embellishments? Please say it changes?
— ✨MissAmiaSays✨ (@MissAmiaSays) May 2, 2016
The non-stop scat humor on #RHOD is a lil too much for us. Can someone explain why Brandi & the other one think it's so funny? 323-450-7408

I don't watch this one but...oops. #RHOD pic.twitter.com/4sTKpL8ht1
— LR (@LMR413) May 1, 2016
And it goes much deeper.
Others just make fun, which is probably the easiest way to go.
And others call Bravo to task.
@Bravotv you failed us with the cast of #RHOD ! It's way to white bread and not diverse. Horrible!

Whether you hate it or love it, there are five more episodes to make up your mind. You can make up your mind every Monday night at 9 on Bravo. Or wait for the recap right here.
