“I was surprised when he said it was the longest job he’s ever had,” Cohen said. ‘But then I wasn’t because eight years in a series for one actor. She’s a working actress… you don’t usually get a part on a show that lasts eight years.

“So this is a reality show and it goes to show that it is a testament to how convincing Lisa Rinna is to watch on television that she spent eight years on. Think of all the memes Lisa Rinna has spawned. Think of all the GIFs she’s generated.

“She has been a really, really big part of Beverly Hills. And I really hope this is a pause. I hope she comes back. I really do.’

Cohen then brought up Real Housewives Of Orange County star Tamra Judge, who recently announced her return to the show after departing in 2020.

Judge described stepping away from the series temporarily as a “positive” experience, Cohen said.

I’ve talked to Tamra a lot about this. Tamra told me before she came back to this, she said, “You know what, my time off the show helped me as a person and… I think it was actually really positive to go away and get some air and some step back.” I just hope Lisa humors us and comes back.

“So I hope this is a pause because I always enjoyed Lisa Rinna on my TV,” he said.
