"A-List: New York" Season 2 Reunion: Part Two: "Everyone's On Blast"

This is it… Really it. The second season of the A-List: New York is over and done. All that's left to do is explain just what the hell happened to you and Doug, my straight friend that I totally did not make up last week to entertain myself.

"These people bitch a lot," observes Doug. "I thought like being rich was supposed to made people happy."

"I don't know about that. But most of these people aren't rich," I reply. "They're just famewhores and wannabes."

"Then what does the 'A' in A-List stand for?"

"A**hole, from the looks of things."

It's obvious from the start that part 2 will follow two primary trajectories; Austin vs. Nyasha and Austin vs. Derek. Will we learn anything new regarding the former? Will there be any progress made by the latter?

Instead of recapping this reunion beat for beat, let's just skip over to the parts we're more interested in. And by interested in, I mean the parts that won't put us to sleep like dogs on the eighth day at the pound.

Austin vs. Nyasha

Back in the studio, and I know this will come as quite a shock to everybody, Austin and Nyasha fight. A lot. They start off fighting about Nyasha taking a fist for Rodiney.

The subsequent bickering that happens after the clip was shown only reveals that this "hit" that got Nyasha so crazed was just a graze to her elbow.

When Wendy Williams points out that the footage shows that Austin did, in fact, apologize in the moment, Rodiney devolves the whole thing into a "you can't trust what Austin says" type of thing that would be beneath Kindergartners.

But it doesn't end there. We get into Nyasha's materialistic personality. Wendy asks if she ever tried to pass herself off as wealthy, she emphatically denies that she presents herself that way.

Austin breaks in with, "That's bullsh*t" and sites examples we've all seen and heard. Everyone in the cast, save for Mike (because he's classy) and Ryan (because he's just as materialistic as she is) sides with Austin.

I'm wondering what Nyasha was thinking by denying this? Does she not watch the show? Does she think we tune into this show without working eyesight or hearing?

When asked if "the hit" never happened, would he and Nyasha have grown to be friends, Austin replies, "I just don't like the person that she is."

Doug shakes his head. "Can I just punch the (bleep) out of all of them so they have something new to talk about?"

Derek vs. Austin

At the very beginning, Wendy Williams throws into a brief (but not brief enough) clip package of all the fights in the season.

Wendy asks, "Why was this past season so much more dramatic than the one before?"

Derek explains that he and Austin had a plan in place to "Take each one of these people down."

Austin continues, "Everyone not on board with the Derek and Austin train, rip up your ticket."

But then the train derailed.

Doug laughs. "They should just (bleep) each other and get it over with".

The image that pops into my head so traumatizes me, I have the urge to rent the entire Pauly Shore oeuvre just to cleanse out my brain.
