To want to be on Housewives of NYC?

I bloody love it. I am neither loaded, nor American, but wonder if they would be interested in a token poor English person.

I want to go to New York Fashion Week, I want to smooze with people in the evenings wearing fabulous clothes (me and them) and poke around gallery openings and drink Margarita's (even though I don't know what's in one). Then go back to my condo and put my pj's on.

I want to borrow beautiful handbags (not made out of animals), I want to spend summer in the Hamptons. I want to go to Zarin Fabrics and stroke all the lovely silks.

I think I might be in the wrong profession, I need to turn the clock back 20 years and get an intern at Vogue NY or something Grin.

oh no cheshire you want to be one of the New Jersey housewives, they are hilarious! None of them work, they have married money.

At least the NY wives have careers/jobs.

Totally with you. What have been doing wasting my time in downtown Glasgow.

valiumredhead · 19/10/2012 10:28

Sorry about the awful links - it's the last one!

spookiesackhouse · 19/10/2012 10:35

I have been off work all week with a chest infection so have caught loads of this programme - I love it! Ramona is totally nuts :o

CheshireDing · 19/10/2012 10:38

God, how can I not know about that thread Valium, I am joining now Grin

I think New Jersey might be on after my bedtime Jax and I only have Freeview, no Sky.

I love the end of series one too where they all get really mad and someone always stomps off.

I need to find a way in to the "inner circle", worked for Bethenny, she was worth $55m in 2010/11 apparently < sighs wistfully >

We won't talk about Sonja though, as she went bankrupt, whoops!

Mully there's no Housewives of Glasgow?! (outraged)

Spookie you need to tape it for when you go back to work. I watch it whilst doing the ironing (as DH can't stand it)

Yeah but look at the company you'd have to put up with! That 'Countess' and the bonkers Kelly woman who tells everyone to 'zip it'!

OhCobblers · 19/10/2012 10:50

I happened upon this when ill in bed recently - fan bloody tastic!!!

Now that I have a sky plus box could you tell me transmission times so I an record??? Tia. Grin

CheshireDing · 19/10/2012 10:55

Yeah not really feeling Kelly, can you believe her ExDH left Elle MacPherson to marry her? (tbf to Kelly that's something I might be inclined to mention whilst doing a bit of networking) Grin. Plus she has the most expensive house in the Hamptons so she might be worth having as a mate Grin (even if she is "little" odd)

Cobbler I only have Freeview so it's currently taping old episodes (Jill has just met Alex and Simon), I think it's on around 4.30pm-ish but double check, it's on every weekday. Don't know if/when it's on Sky.

Actually Bethenneys show could be on Sky?

I like the Countess Shock

Cannot stand Ramona, she needs a big slap. Programme irritates me.

OhCobblers · 19/10/2012 10:59

Kelly is as mad as a huge box of frogs. Stunned that anone could be so self absorbed. The episode where Alex gets Simon invited to a girls dinner at Jill's is hysterical. Ramona going nuts about it and leaving is tv gold!

OhCobblers · 19/10/2012 10:59

Thanks cheshire

CleverClod · 19/10/2012 11:10

Google: locate TV. Input all your favourite programmes and it will tell you days, times and channels which they are on. It's excellent - I have ALL the Housewives lined up (you can put in what you've already seen/not seen and it notifies you Smile)

spookiesackhouse · 19/10/2012 11:20

Good idea Cheshire :o

Kelly is evil. I like the way Ramona says 'Mario' - cracks me up.

I quite like The Countess too! And Jill.

Bethenney not so much - although I do feel for her when she talks about wanting a family. I am so glad she had her daughter :-)

Alex and Simon are legends!

valiumredhead · 19/10/2012 13:04

Bethenny is on at 10 on E channel on Tuesdays.

New Jersey is on at 9 on Bio, followed by Pregnant in Heels and quite often some of the housewives turn up on it - Bethenny was on it and Teresa from New Jersey was last week briefly.

prudencesmom · 19/10/2012 16:05

I want to be on Real Housewives of Orange County as well. Plus I want them all on mumsnet. It would be bunfight central.
Did anyone see the episode at Heathers mansion, the party and cakegate?
Heathers house is pure property porn!
Love these programmes! Grin

valiumredhead · 19/10/2012 16:15

'She ate my bow!!!' - was fab!

swlmum · 19/10/2012 16:19

Has been on at 9.25 on bravo but series 1 ended today I think. Am hoping they will show all the series again- used to see it now and again but now sky + it. DH was out last night so watched 4 episodes back to back- heaven. Grin
Did bethanny end marrying Jason or someone else and why did 'the countess' split from 'the count'- all happily loved up in series 1 but know they've split up now...

Moominsarescary · 19/10/2012 16:20

I love house wife's of orange county.

Yes to the she ate my bow!

SoleSource · 19/10/2012 16:29

Mob Wives spoiled me. I loved that show.

valiumredhead · 19/10/2012 16:34

Bethenny ended up marrying another Jason!

Mob Wives was vicious!
