 I don't know what sparked the love connection between myself and the hit show, but it's happened. None of the other housewives quite hit the spot like the Georgia Peaches of ATL. I began watching in Season 3 and was clueless as to many things like how the war between Kim Zolciak and NeNe Leakes started. 
 I started with Season 1 and wondered how such a wonderful relationship such as NeNe and Kim's could turn so sour. Then I saw Sheree Whitfield. Yes, the stunning Diva Sheree started a rift in the bond between the duo with petty drama and little white lies.

Although, it wasn't Sheree who started the war between the two Georgia peaches. Several small playful jabs at each other here and there would always lead to a big blow out. I think they just got tired of letting it get there, so in Season 4, they avoid one another entirely. 
I had to search, and fight, and claw my way through the internet just like a housewife star just to watch the older episodes. Song writer Kandi Burruss joins the cast in Season 2 and I LOVE her! DeShawn Snow, & Lisa Wu (formerly Wu-Hartwell) were once upon a time alum but have all but vanished from the spot light being replaced by Cynthia Bailey and Phaedra Parks.
 As I continued on, I eventually went from hating Sheree to loving to hate her, to tolerating her, to loving her. I still don't love her as much as I love Kandi, NeNe or Kim, but I prefer Sheree over Phaedra or Cynthia. Of course, I am sure that they will grow on me over time too.
