Pumpheads - The Birth of Venus (Vanderpump Rules S12E1)

Lara and Carey are back in the stu: Lara with a new love of London and a renewed faith in the travel gods, and Carey with a new earring. They discuss a Heathrow horror story, and the gay splendor of “Heated Rivalry” on HBO Max.

Then, Larz and Carz gird their loins and return to the SURce for the brand new season of “Vanderpump Rules.” With a new cast, the jury was out, but the solidly unhinged premiere promises a potentially stellar season, despite all odds. We meet Natalie, the bartender with a penchant for chaos, middle-aged beaus, and texting heel photos to your boyfriend. Server Marcus with sad sea foam eyes and his Katie Maloneyesque girlfriend/coworker Kim, Jason and Chris, the cousins/OnlyFans duo from South Jersey, and recent SUR hires; Demy the eternal SUR employee; Audrey the roller girl hostess; Shayne the golden retriever mactor; and finally, Venus Le Fleurs, the Capri-smoking diva with luscious locks and wisdom beyond his years.

Nana Vanderpump laments the pandemic-hit nightlife scene in LA, as Natalie tucks her tail between her legs from a fight with her 54-year-old ex-boyfriend at SUR, of course. Kim angsts over Marcus and Natalie’s too-close-for-comfort friendship; Marcus lands in hot water over sneaking drinks with newbie Jason. Jason and Chris surf and plan their LA takeover; Shayne shows off his hot bubble joie de vivre and ‘hole is a hole’ mentality. It all converges at an all-hands staff meeting, with Lisa flexing her HBIC bicep, veneer lisp, and all. It’s all happening. We are so back.
