I love the whole real housewives franchise. I live vicariously through each and every one of the batshit crazy 'housewives'

That's nothing. I now know everyone in Made In Chelsea by name.

Ooh me too. I record them and watch during the night feed. Theyre all nuts though. Especially Kelly.

My life revolves around getting home for 3:40pm to tune into ITV2. I blooming well love that crap! My favourite thing is to look at Alex's huuuuge earlobes. How doesn't she know her husband is gay?!

My first maternity leave I watched the whole of ER on rerun on sky
It was fab

Pickles77 · 13/11/2012 19:13

I love Sonja so much, sadly I saw this series at the start of my maternity, Kelly has some serious issues, and her upper arms scare me!

Pickles77 · 13/11/2012 20:21

Her upper arms? What am I looking for?
On itv2 at 3.40 it seems a random order to me Hmm or am I being stupid

There is also an itv2 plus 1 meaning you can catch it an hour later if you're still out and about. Am addicted. I keep worrying it's going to end when I see another one of the shows when they're all on the couch discussing the series with the presenter but thankfully there's been more. Am sure my four month old DS is going to develop a Jill NYC twang.

freelancegirl · 13/11/2012 20:35

Btw, although Alex has become more irritating and she was in the wrong with that Jill thing, Sonja was so in the wrong with the gay marriage speech issue! Sometimes it's just like watching one long argument! Tense...

Pickles77 · 13/11/2012 20:43

I quite like jill Blush

I like Jill, she tells it like it is and is more normal looking than the others. I also love bobby her husband, he's such a sweet guy (and rolling in it!)

freelancegirl · 13/11/2012 21:11

I like Jill too - she's (being edited as such at least) one of the more sane ones at the moment. I like Bethenny though. I was half tempted to google some of her products AND search the airwaves for her follow series' Bethenny gets married/ has a baby Blush

Ouchdownthere · 13/11/2012 21:22

Ooh that's what happened to me during maternity leave. I had quite a long run up to DS being born and was actually worried about missing out when he was born and I could no longer laze on the sofa watching.

When DS did finally make an appearance the TV didn't go on for a month, not because I was all PFB about the tv but I was in too much shell shock to deal with the drama.

Oh I lie, baby whisperer at 2am, 3am, 4am became my best friend.

Jill is my favourite, although one series Pinot Grigio lady had me rooting for her.

Oh such fond memories.
