Is Gabby Prescod Actually on ‘Summer time Home’ Season 9? It’s Laborious To Inform

Summer House is again and is formally in full swing, and it is by no means been higher. Ex-fiancés Carl Radke and pregnant Lindsay Hubbard are nonetheless sharing the identical dwelling house. Jesse Solomon and newcomer Lexi Wooden’s hot and steamy fling is trying like it’s going to inevitably go down in flames. It seems Season 9 is giving us precisely what we would have liked. There are characters we love, we hate, we like to hate, and we hate to like, however there’s one character that I genuinely maintain forgetting exists, and that is Gabby Prescod.

Gabby is a beautiful, cosmopolitan singleton working in media, and there’s been solely a billion rom-coms, novels, and tv exhibits depicting this precise archetype that may by no means get previous, and but we aren’t actually getting something on this present. She’s good, she’s attractive, she’s profitable, she has all the trimmings of somebody viewers wish to watch on their screens. Summer time Home is a type of exhibits that’s guilty of hiring influencers, and it is protected to say America is fatigued by them dominating our digital consumption and, you recognize, eroding the moral fabric of society. Gabby is among the solely ones left standing with an precise 9-to-5, and higher but, it is a job price speaking about, as she’s a trend director at Blanc Journal, a trend publication that is making waves with content material that is each fashion-forward and numerous, which is a rarity in that realm of media as of late.

Gabby Ought to Share Extra of Her Life

And but Gabby does not actually talk about her job and allow us to take a look at that a part of her life, or any a part of her life, actually. All I actually can inform you about her is that she actually likes astrology, and actually each Bravolebrity loves astrology, it is why they’re continually weaponizing their solar signal as an excuse for his or her horrible conduct. Gabby’s fellow Tauruses like Theresa Giudice and Alexia Echevarria are continually bypassing accountability by asserting their cursed natal charts as excuses, however Gabby by no means does that as a result of she is aware of how astrology really works, and she or he additionally by no means has any horrible conduct to excuse.

Even Gabby’s bio on the Bravo website does not actually forebode any large storylines on her finish apart from being a good friend to Lindsay. That is good, I suppose. The one time I actually ever see Gabby chiming in is to have Lindsay’s again and be her Greek refrain. Lindsay does want that form of assist as a result of the forged loves coming after her and scapegoating her. Piggybacking off of Lindsay is a horrible concept, particularly since she’s been evasive about whether or not she’s coming back next season after giving beginning. Gabby has quite a bit to say about Lindsay’s life typically, however I’ve by no means seen her share a lot about her life apart from the truth that she loves her household, has a fantastic job, and has an amorphous relationship roster that she alludes to.

Gabby Must Get within the Combine

Gabby is well-adjusted, self-aware, and authentically assured for all the correct causes, and that is fantastic for any 30-something-year-old woman to achieve such a feat, however it’s additionally why she’s not nice actuality tv. She’s not stepping into the combo or searching for any form of validation. Whereas Danielle Olivera “give up” Summer time Home for “private causes,” she has given extra nice tv as a “buddy of” the previous two episodes than we have seen from Gabby in a very long time. Do not get me unsuitable, Danielle is cringeworthy and is attempting a bit arduous to slot in at her massive age of 36, however she’s messy enough to be great television.

The one factor Gabby actually gave us this season is when she derided Carl in Episode 1 for his new veneers and questioned out loud why he’s nonetheless coming again to the sharehouse whereas gossiping with Lindsay behind closed doorways. Carl later acknowledged this comment on Watch What Happens Live by saying that he contributed a hell of a lot more than Gabby did this previous season. He is by no means actually carried out something to Gabby, however since Lindsay is an extension of Gabby in that Lindsay is her complete storyline, I suppose I can see why Gabby felt comfy roasting him. Gabby later responded by really agreeing with him that she was extra withholding this season as a result of she was “going by way of quite a bit.” That’s fully comprehensible, however she’s by no means shared something in earlier seasons, actually.

I keep in mind having excessive hopes for Gabby throughout her first episode when she informed us that she hacked into her dishonest boyfriend’s socials to announce that he was untrue to her, and since then, we have seen nothing however gracious and mature conduct from her, and it is so blah to me. The place’s that savage, shameless conduct? Being Lindsay’s sidekick simply isn’t compelling tv in any respect, and it’s vexing to see her have the entitlement of somebody who contributed quite a bit, when she has but to show herself as a memorable entity on the show. Summer time Home is on the market to stream on Peacock within the U.S.
