With a new lawyer in tow, Sheree Whitfield walked into the courtroom for her child support battle with her ex-husband Bob on 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' (Tue., 9PM ET on Bravo). Phaedra Parks was a little wary of representing Sheree because she hadn't fully paid two previous attorneys (she didn't feel they did a good enough job).

After convincing Sheree to not flaunt her wealth with her style in court, Parks was ready. It turned out to be good advice, because Bob was not only dressed way down, he was there representing himself. Parks said this was to emphasize how much poorer he is -- Bob was petitioning to lower his child support expectations.

If ever Patti Stanger wanted validation that she was good at what she does, she certainly got it on the second part of 'The Millionaire Matchmaker' (Tue., 9PM ET on Bravo) reunion special. Unbeknownst to her or host Andy Cohen, one of her client bachelors had an agenda all his own.

"Baby, I love you with all my heart," David said to Ayla, the woman Stanger set him up with, before dropping to one knee. He then took out a gorgeous diamond ring and asked her to marry him.

In the background, Stanger and Cohen were as speechless as Ayla was, and perhaps nearly as overjoyed when she emphatically said yes. "I've waited for a guy who would be as nice as my father is, and he's everything and more," Ayla said a few minutes later, beaming with her fiance by her side.

'Watch What Happens Live' (Mon., 11PM ET on Bravo) is often a boozy laugh-fest, as it features cast members from Bravo's various reality shows. But there was a very different tone as Taylor Armstrong sat with Andy Cohen to hash out the latest developments on 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.'

She talked about how she felt like a complete train wreck while filming this most recent season, and reflected on her explosive breakdown in last night's episode. Armstrong also talked about how she and her daughter have been dealing with the suicide of her abusive ex-husband Russell Armstrong.

'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star Kim Richards has once again entered rehab, according to ETOnline.

Kim, who has become known for her erratic behavior on the Bravo series, has reportedly entered an undisclosed treatment center.

Following the Season 1 finale in January, which featured an argument with her sister Kyle, Kim reportedly checked into rehab, but left a week later.

"You are a liar ... [and] you are an alcoholic! Yeah, that's right. I've said it now and everybody knows," Kyle Richards said in the Season 1 finale.

The two sisters had been at odds until filming began for Season 2. However, they seemed to unite when Brandi Glanville made references to Kim being intoxicated. Watch video of that incident below.

Child support is a pretty simple concept. If you break up with the parent of your child and they are the primary caretaker, then you need to help out financially. You helped make the kid, you help take care of it. But, as we saw on 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' (Sun., 9PM ET on Bravo), some people just don't get it.

In the case of Bob, he struggled to comprehend why he needed to pay Sheree anything because she was doing okay financially. In his mind, because he provides a home for them when they're with him, his obligations are covered. This may be true if the kids lived with him 50 percent of the time.

Or if it wasn't Sheree providing most of their necessities like clothing and food. When she told him her next recourse was the courts, Bob said, "Do it." So she did -- throw water on him, that is.

Because Andy Cohen will host a reunion of anything, he presided over 'The Millionaire Matchmaker' (Tue., 9PM ET on Bravo) reunion special. And in it, he decided to take on Patti Stanger's job, only Patti was going to be his client.

When a viewer wrote in asking about former client Marcellus asking Patti on a date, Marcellus was clearly interested. As expected, Patti deflected and started talking about another woman she knew, but Cohen wasn't going to let it die that easily.

"I kind of like the idea of the two of you together," he said, pulling them back to the topic at hand. Patti said she'd try it, though she didn't seem to believe it could work out between the two of them. One thing was absolutely for certain, Marcellus was interested.

It's still a little chilling to watch 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' (Mon., 9PM ET on Bravo), knowing what we now know about Taylor and Russell Armstrong's marriage, and the warning signs were in plain sight last night.

Awkward encounters are a staple of the 'Real Housewives' franchise, but the tension was palpable when Kyle and Mauricio joined Taylor and Russell for a limo ride in this week's episode, with Kyle observing, "After what happened at the tea party, it was a little awkward seeing Russell. It's really hard when I hear things from Taylor that she'll say about her marriage and then I see them together ... it's very hard for us to put those things out of our minds."

Bad news for Bethenny Frankel: The reality star has been left out in the talk show cold, according to New York Post's Page Six.

The former 'Real Housewives of New York City' star had a talk show set up at Telepictures, but after failing to find a syndicated home for the daytime series, the company has reportedly dropped the project.

The daytime landscape has gotten mighty crowded as of late. Anderson Cooper's 'Anderson' has been picked up for a new season and Katie Couric, Jeff Probst, Ricki Lake and Steve Harvey all have landed talk show deals and homes for their series.

The elimination challenge this week on 'Top Chef: Texas' (Wed., 10PM ET on Bravo) was particularly brutal. The chefs were divided into three teams for a chili cookoff, but immediately one team seemed to be at a disadvantage.

!!SPOILER ALERT!!

At least, Nyesha thought they were as she was paired with both Beverly and Richie. As she anticipated, the trio did not impress with their hint of chocolate. Cowboys don't want sweet in their chili almost as much as they don't want beans!

Patti Stanger has made a career out of helping other people find love, as we see each week on 'The Millionaire Matchmaker' (Tue., 9PM ET on Bravo). But this week, she turned the full power of her matchmaking service on herself. It must be difficult helping other people find love all the time when you're not in love yourself.

In this case, Stanger was the millionaire, and the service hooked her up with John, a very nice-looking man who was genuinely fascinated by what she did for a living and how she came to this particular calling.

Taylor and Russell certainly spared no expense for Kennedy's fifth birthday on 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' (Mon., 9PM ET on Bravo). It's a good thing the cameras were rolling, too, because I certainly don't remember my fifth birthday party.

If you're going so far as to have a former 'American Idol' alum write a song for her, you want her to be able to remember it. Or at least stick in the DVD and rewatch it.

Taylor seemed to enjoy Ace Young's presence at the festivities even more than she loves his song -- and she cried the first time she heard that. "If you were any cuter," she started. "You're killing me right now!"

Just when it seemed like Andy Cohen's Bravo empire couldn't possibly get any bigger, it's grown once again. The New York Times is reporting that Bravo's Cohen-hosted late-night show 'Watch What Happens Live' will soon be expanded into a five-night-per-week offering, airing new episodes from Sunday through Thursday nights.

Cohen, who had been Bravo's Executive Vice President of Programming, is widely credited as the godfather the network's ridiculously popular 'Real Housewives' franchise. Over the past two years he's moved increasingly in front of the camera, hosting the 'Housewives' reunion specials and carving out a boozy, gossipy niche for 'What What Happens,' the rare late night show where guests are served alcohol. The Times reports that in his new role, Cohen will lose his VP title, but remain involved in Bravo programming decisions.

The ladies aren't the only ones who are getting all catty and gossipy on the Bravo 'Housewives' franchise. Peter let loose some trash talk in an interview on 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' (Sun., 9PM ET on Bravo), so you know things were going to get tense when he and Cynthia showed up for Kim's baby shower.

They didn't even bring a gift, unless the gift was Peter stirring up trouble with Apollo, who was sitting right next to him. Apollo was clearly tense, as he was none too pleased with Peter trashing his wife, but Peter seems to want to get into a fight.

Has 'Top Chef' (Wed., 10PM ET on Bravo) gone all 'Fear Factor' on us? On last night's season premiere the chefs were given their first quickfire challenge, which was to create a dish using rattlesnake. Yum! (Not.) A very unhappy-looking Dakota confessed that she has "a major fear of snakes," and Ty-Lör probably spoke for everyone in the kitchen when he said, "This sucks!"

Host Padma Lakshmi was really harsh on the hapless contestants, using some most unladlylike language to get them going: "I'd better some some motherf***ing snakes on some motherf***ing plates at the end of this!" What has happened to Padma since she got to the Lone Star State?

As the nervous chefs gingerly opened the ingredient boxes a giant wave of relief washed over them as they realized that they wouldn't be rassling any rattlers after all: The snakes were all dead and skinned. So that makes it all alright then!

Patti Stanger holds nothing back, and Sharnay didn't take it too well on 'The Millionaire Matchmaker' (Tue., 9PM ET on Bravo). Of course, we don't think very many women would take it very well being asked, "Are you a man? Are you a woman?"

Stanger told her to come back after she got a makeover so she wouldn't look like a drag queen. When Sharnay went to defend herself, Stanger told her to bring it. So she did, insulting Stanger's stomach and lips. Granted, Sharnay didn't do herself any favors by saying Stanger had lipo in her lips, considering that doesn't even make sense.

Stanger, on the other hand, went to lift Sharnay's dress to look for male genitalia, so neither woman was on their best behavior.
