On the second episode of *Vanderpump Guys Rank,* Brian and Ryan blindly watch Episode 10 of *The Real Housewives of Rhode Island* and attempt to rank all seven Housewives completely out of context…
Dan McLellanGuest
Ava TramerGuestBrianHostyou'd love Joellen, right? What's kind of like your argument
for Joellen being so low?
Do we have an objective definition of the power ranking in terms of like... how much power they have, how much we like them, how we're supposed to weigh these factors.
I have a system that Brian hates where I basically do it like golf rules, where if somebody does something on the show, like Joellen, I felt like she was doing a nice job of keeping the balance between the two women in the flashbacks to that car argument.
So I gave her a minus one, like par, like under par.
And if it's a plus...
That's over par, so that's bad.
Okay.
But I do take your point.
Ava, you think Joellen is producing too much?
I feel like she's just too aware, and she's like, I'm going to become a star, and I'm going to do these things to make myself important in each episode in the plot.
It's a little like how Whitney Rose will kind of insert herself into things, at least early seasons.
So we also each have a steal.
So if along the way anybody wants to move Joe Ellen up the list, let's say to number one, they could use their steal and do that.
