I have watched every episode of Beverly Hills (love Erica ) and can't wait for new series. Currently loving Orange County (hate Vicky , and Shannon is going crazy and blaming everyone and everything for her huge weight gain) can't wait for the episode tonight. Anyone else real housewives fans or am I totally sad haha dh thinks it's utter rubbish and that it's all far fetched in true bullshit . AIBU watching these programmes ? They are my guilty pleasure and are on to when all 4 dcs are in bed and I love settling down with a pot of tea , some hobnobs and curling up on sofa . Dh goes to bed at 9 (up at 5 am for milking) so I have living room all to myself . Vicki is really manipulative and I wish she would leave . I can't get over the fake cancer scam she pulled with brooks . Briana her daughter was right all along as was Tamra . Also talking of Tamra id not be surprised if Eddie turns out to be gay ??

Yanbu! They are the best shows ever! A world away from our lives of normality. New York, Orange County, Vancouver, Sydney, Dallas, Melbourne and Toronto! Sadly I'm addicted to them all. The back stabbing and bitching is strangely compulsive as I don't know anyone in RL that would ever behave like this. I watch them all on mewatchseries.to . I too also feel the guilt but it's great escapism.

Farmerswife4life1984 · 07/08/2017 17:52

Ah a fellow rh lover haha 😂 what do I make of shannons weight gain ? And the fight she had with Kelly last week ?? It was crazy

Definitely not BU! Im in the same boat, dh hates it but i love them. Along with botched and married to medicine. Cant get enough!!! Watching the gossip and bitching keeps it out of my life in reality Grin

Yay here Grin
Let's see
Atlanta, Cheshire, married to medicine, New York, Melbourne, Potomac, ladies of London. There must be one I have forgotten.

I have tried New Jersey, Orange County (first one I very watched when it had just started) and the Canadian one for one season (too boring)

I hope that itvb gets to air love and hip. Apparently it's really good. Grin

Love them, my guilty pleasure - my favourite is Beverly Hills and I'm a Lisa VDP fan.

tiffanysfanny · 07/08/2017 18:01

The back stabbing and bitching is strangely compulsive as I don't know anyone in RL that would ever behave like this. I actually think in real life we would get away with things they don't because the producers know about and make into a thing. Some are also, created for that purpose which intern becomes realty for them because they are arguing over it.

Drgonzosattorney · 07/08/2017 18:02

Yey, I don't meet many of us in RLSmile . Hello. Gosh poor Shannon. Actually felt so sorry for her as she just seem to blurt out how fat she was and Kelly just seized on that and was so mean. Didn't like Shannon last season and felt sorry for Kelly but now it's the opposite. Woo hoo can't wait for next episode.

tiffanysfanny · 07/08/2017 18:04

I find it funny when Dh asks question about what is happening when he is the one saying how rubbish the shows are. Grin
Or he will turn around randomly and comment on some of the things when he is in room. Grin

FatGirlWithChocolate · 07/08/2017 18:05

I mostly watch RHONY, from back in the day when it was Jill Zarin, and Simon and (I forget)..Bethenny and the model girl they all decided was crazy! Til now.. And RHOOC the same..love them!

Drgonzosattorney · 07/08/2017 18:05

Basketball wives is another good one

LaGattaNera · 07/08/2017 18:06

I love them! Potomac, OC, Cheshire, NJ & Melbourne - used to watch NY but that was in the days of Jill & Alex with her funny husband Simon but don't care for it now. Can't get into BH or Atlanta though.

As an aside, I'm looking forward to Will & Grace coming back in the autumn with new episodes 12 years on from the last ones!

FatGirlWithChocolate · 07/08/2017 18:06

Kelly Bensimon. That's her..and Alex McCord.

fairgame84 · 07/08/2017 18:06

I only watch RHOC but have been a fan for years. I don't have sky so have to wait for it to come onto Itvbe.
I love Shannon but have gone off Heather after the way she goaded Kelly on the minibus in Ireland. Vicky has done too much to her face.

Farmerswife4life1984 · 07/08/2017 18:07

Shannon is very shouty and always falls out with the new wives then becomes friends . She was crazy last episode and her weight gain is not down to Vicky . I liked Kelly and felt in Ireland they all bullied her but she was batshit last week . I think she has an alcohol problem . Shannon and Kelly both seem to like the booze a bit too much . Tamaras son Ryan looks awful with that huge beard . It's aged him by 30 years . He is fit without the beard . I can't stand beards and certainly wouldn't wanna kiss his hairy beard haha Vicky is just so manipulative and everyone is cottoning on to her now

I became obsessed with OC in season 3-4, then DW discovered in and has taken over the Real Housewives mantle. I jump in and out these days.

Love them! Only just realised you can watch them on sky catch up. My dh hates the screeching so I sometimes watch with subtitles 😆

thebear1 · 07/08/2017 18:09

I watch nyc, oc and BH. I find them really relaxing, I just switch off mentally from real life and enjoy.

DonkeyOil · 07/08/2017 18:11

Nearly nc'd for this Grin I'm addicted too, but only to Beverly Hills, New York and Orange County. I can take or leave the rest.

Farmerswife4life1984 · 07/08/2017 18:15

I watch bh , on , ny and Melbourne . Don't like Atlanta or New Jersey much

I used to watch the New Jersey one but stopped somewhere in the third season. I used to love watching Danielle vs Theresa, their fights were so ridiculous and OTT. They were all obsessed with Danielle!

ApocalypseNowt · 07/08/2017 18:19

I love NY and Cheshire but I can't seem to get into any of the others. Which is the best of the other ones? Tell me because I have a weird determination to watch more of this shite.

Twinkie1 · 07/08/2017 18:21

Van der Pump rules is amazing too!
