Season 11 episode 11 of Married To Medicine is award winning television. Rumor has it Phaedra Parks has quit the show, after Dr. Heavenly invited her ex-husband Apollo on a couples trip with the rest of the cast. She assures dubious duo Dr. Jackie and Dr. Simone, inviting Apollo wouldn’t be a problem, he was coming alone, and Phaedra was cool with it.
“Phaedra knows,” Dr. Heavenly states, becoming increasingly unhinged about the situation, as they jump between conversation and confessional. Leaving everyone, including the viewer, with a sense of unease.
“Phaedra knows.” Dr. Jackie and Dr. Simone repeat to one another, alerting Dr. Heavenly this will be their response when shit inevitably goes awry. Boy did things go south, as the episode descends into never ending chaos.
As Phaedra Parks frolics on the beach, carefree with her new boy toy, her ex Apollo appears with his new wife. The very woman he had an affair with, leading to their divorce. Phaedra doesn’t know. As she questions what kind of friend would do such a thing, the audience is bombarded with accusations that the boy toy is a close friend of both her ex-husband and the mistress. A mess. A fucking mess.
Based on Phaedra & Apollo’s history the audience doesn’t know who nor what to believe. Dr. Heavenly’s pitiless and erratic confessionals don’t help. In what world…was this a good idea? We all wonder. Pure art.
While Phaedra and the mistress exchange words, Quad’s hot new boyfriend gets into an altercation with her ex husband, Dr. Greg. I’m talking zero to one hundred real quick. Which is the only thing that keeps Dr. Greg’s new wife, Sweet Tea, from physically fighting Dr. Heavenly in the ocean. A fucking masterpiece. Whatever happens, Phaedra quitting, friendships forever finished, it was all worth it. At one point I questioned if this was a fever dream. Give everyone an EGOT. If loving this episode is wrong, I don’t wanna be right. Top tier quality television, thank you all for participating in a historical moment. Via: BravoTv
