Summer House gave us an unexpected extra helping with the first-ever Aftermath, where we got cozy on the cast’s couches for some further West/Amanda debriefing. Lindsay dropped the hammer on Amanda. Kyle (& Reese) got nothing from West. And Ciara & Meija had a kind of strange-but-necessary meeting of the First Wives’ Club. Time to chop flowers, do the right thing “a handful of times,” and tune in to this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

In the final installment of the Summer House reunion, West (and, honestly, Amanda too) is beta-blocked to the gods! He tries every possible semantic to escape responsibility for leading on Meija (and, honestly, Amanda too). The friendship betrayals – West of Jesse, and Amanda of Ciara – bring cleansing tears to the betrayed, and deadened, robotic responses from the betrayers. Kyle and Amanda’s hearts beat as one for a beat, and Lindsay has a sack of chips, a glass of wine, and a lot of unanswered questions. Time to hold a Thin Mint, hurry for a hard out at 7:30, and tune in to this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

On the second installment of the Summer House reunion, Lindsay directly calls out West’s pathological nature, and all of his exes in attendance (Ciara, Dara, & Meija) concur. Amanda boo-hoos and bails for “a (long!) beat." KJ and Ben are in love. Carl is comfy in his skin. And the ghost of Levi was there… just long enough to say goodbye. Time to snag a ticket to Jesse’s tour but steer clear of The West Show, get on your tippies to steal a kiss, and tune in to this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

In the first installment of the Summer House reunion, Soft Bar’s Carl comes hard for a limp West. Ciara labels Amanda an SBD incarnate. KJ got a bunch of piercings and made a ton of progress. Ben? Not so much. And Levi? Well, she had fun. Time to tighten your corset, loosen your horsehair tie, breadcrumb your bad decisions, and tune in to this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

On the Summer House Season 10 finale, Amanda’s transformation is nearly complete from sympathetic Kyle-sufferer to diabolical people-wrecker. Lindsay & Carl make up in an igloo. Jesse & West snuggle in matching panties. And Ciara is just objectively the best friend anyone could have. The heartbreak is real watching the end of the innocence of these Hamptons house summers… Time for an evening jump in the pool, a morning group hug, and the latest episode of A Therapeutic Dose!

On Summer House, Ciara threw an Après Ski party, inadvertently celebrating her last spell of innocence before learning her bestie & Westie had been sweating the sheets behind her back. KJ quells his end-of-summer anxiety by extending an invite to his summer house fam to join him for the holidays, leading Mia to experience some wrenching grief mixed with deep gratitude. Kyle & Carl erupt into a near fist fight and, just as quickly, squash it with a hug (and a Loverboy chug). Time to get a streamer stuck in your butt,  party like it’s 2023, and tune in to this week’s A Therapeutic Dose!

On this week's Summer House, not even a kid's camp or a lighthearted water gun fight could keep the crew from being utterly soaked in chaos. Lindsay still isn't free, Carl and Bailey make OUT, and Kyle has dry eyes and no clue. Amanda finally swaps her martyr mask for a smile straight out of a horror film, and Levi just wants to Levi her body during dinner. Time to buckle your orthopedic sandal over your orange tights and tune into A Therapeutic Dose!

On this week's Summer House, West puts more effort into sprinting towards cold orange chicken than he does into practicing repair. Mia hears from her mommy, Carl slays flies then feeds his fam, Amanda NOPES out, and Ben shows another side of himself. Time to put on your ski goggles, spray yourself with the kitchen faucet, and tune into this week's A Therapeutic Dose!
