Does anyone know if new RHOBH episodes will occur just before Lisa's/Billie's return so the housewives can promote the visit just before she airs?
I think they usually start in December, so yes.
But the only thing that can make Days ratings go up is well written and executed stories, not stunt casting.

LR's Billie was great before, but now, I prefer JP's Billie.

Meanwhile, I'm pretty amused by the fact that the two actresses who said they wouldn't return to Days (Lisa Rinna and Louise Sorel) are both back at the same time.
Let's hope that's a good sign for story and length of stay.

Okay but....unless Chelsea is right behind her or one of Billie's siblings or Kate is dying...why?
The only thing that could possibly excite me is IF they reveal LK as an imposter Kate and brought back in Deborah Adair as our real Kate. Even if she were to come out of retirement for very short term. I don't mind Lisa Rinna since she was the original Billie, but I like Julie in some ways better as the character after having watched her during time period she was re addicted to drugs because of her father in 1997. After that including Greta's arrival from the Bayou, Billie losing her baby and then not really have lost her baby ~ on and on and on~ seemed pretty stupid to me.

That was Krista Allen. Julie Pinson played Billie from 2004 to 2008.

I'm just over the moon about this. I know Billie came to Salem with Austin but after the big reveal (a la Deborah Adair's) of Kate admitting Lucas was a bastard Horton, was Billie and Lucas's relationship ever fleshed out fully?
IMO, yes, the Lucas/Billie relationship was fleshed out fully. It was never the focus and it happened here and there over the course of years, but it did happen.

During LR's 02-ish return they had significant scenes during the Larry Welch redux. They were living together and bonding over their substance abuse issues. He was one of the only people she had when she was persona non grata with most of Salem for her inadvertent role in Hope's kidnapping. Can't forget the roundly-mocked scene where Billie almost takes a drink and tells Lucas "the ice cubes were sparkling..." And the utter creepiness of Lucas saying "both my sisters are hot" while trying to balance his loyalty to Jennifer/Billie when Billie briefly dated Jack.

Then they were up in each other's business constantly once Julie Pinson had the role. Living together or across the hall from each other some of the time. There was Billie cheerleading for Lucas/Sami (no one shipped Lumi harder than Billie in 2006/2007) and Lucas trying to help Billie out when she made her typical lousy decisions (he was the one who moved her into that apartment building when the Lockharts threw her out, he was the one who kept warning her EJ was going to exploit the security system she developed, etc.) Billie was the one Lucas called to baby-sit the twins when he went out and framed himself because Will shot EJ. Lucas was the one who played referee between Chelsea and Billie when Chelsea wanted to disown Billie for sleeping with Nick. And the two of them would gang up on Kate when they thought she was going too far to help Philip hang onto Claire. That's one of my favorite Days sibling scenes of all-time: Billie and Lucas have a debate about whether it's better to be raised by Kate or not in front of Kate. Kate starts bawling and neither Billie nor Lucas have any fucks to give. It's hilarious.

There was less interaction during LR's last return, but by then Lucas had basically been phased out as a meaningful part of Salem.

Overall in the 2000s though, there was enough time to establish a close relationship between them.

When they mentioned Lisa on the show a few weeks ago, I knew Ron must want her.
I haven't watched much so I missed this. Was Billie mentioned? I'm confused.

It was a pretty funny and meta exchange when Hattie first met with Bonnie in Statesville.



Hattie tells her that Maggie married Victor Kiriakis. Hattie says, "She's living large, like one of those TV housewives." Bonnie loves Lisa from "The Real Housewives." She always thinks to herself that Lisa's someone she used to know!

Oh that's hilarious! I missed that, so thanks for explaining.

Why no mention of Roman and Kate's kids - Rex and Cassie? Anyone remember them?

I'm not all that excited to see Billie return. At least it won't be a storyline where she is trying to get back together with Bo. My greatest hope out of this story would be that Bo isn't dead after all and that she's been working with the ISA to keep him safe. Of course, this would only work if Peter Reckell would decide to come out of retirement. Then, she could have Rafe after Bo and Hope reunite. Again, don't care to see Billie and Bo together unless they're just friends.

Wow imagine if Billie, Angelica, and Marlena were all in the same scene. It would be the holy trinity of botox.

Well, this was always a possibility, especially with Eileen returning. However, two things that don't make sense.

Why on earth would she return at a different time than Eileen?
Even though she is apparently going be on for only a few episodes, how is Billie Reed returning and not Kristen DiMera?

Her acting was mediocre the last time, hopefully she is able to infuse her RHOBH persona into it a bit this time.

They will mention Rex and Cassie more, and I predict bring Cassie back at some point. They were also in the bracelet Andre gave Kate.

Eduardo gave her the bracelet and that was Dena.

Dena being behind it has nothing to do with it.

It has a lot to do with it. One regime mentioning them doesn't foreshadow another regime's plans.
