In the recent episodes of 'Denise Richards & Her Wild Things,' the show struggles for coherence, highlighted by a lizard memorial that echoes previous reality TV cringe. After resolving a sibling conflict, Denise's family plans a tribute for Godzilla, a pet that Brooke Mueller cherished. Despite moments that resemble plots forming, such as rock climbing excursions, viewer engagement wanes as the show battles to find direction. The underlying darker themes add an unsettling layer, but overshadowed by the peculiar absurdities like the lizard memorial.
Not since Tom Schwartz forced us to endure a poolside memorial for his lizard, Daug, during the worst-ever season of Vanderpump Rules, have I felt such despair over what I was watching.
The best thing I can say about the Godzilla storyline of 'Drop Dead Gorgeous Lizard'... is that it at least resembles plot, which is more than can be said for anything else that happens.
I appreciate Lola not wanting to tell her employer she has to miss work for a non-human memorial, even as I agree with Denise's advice to just flub the details.
I'm already over all the reminders of the darkness lurking under the surface.
