Real Housewives of NYC - Series 4

[SmellyFartado]

Have seen the other thread about Bethenny's spin off show but is anyone watching this on ITV2 at the moment? I am drawn to it daily like a moth to a flame.

How weird are Alex and Simon and did anyone see the modelling shoot Alex did on Friday? Has she lost the plot with the weird faces and straggly hair? And don't even start me on her creepy weird excuse for a husband. He makes me shudder every time I see him.

Loved the argument with Alex and Sonja - Alex hasn't got a clue has she?

Haven't got Bravo but think they've just shown Series 5 with no Alex and Simon - ooooooo

I've seen the spinoff and thought it was quite good. I am not too sure what series I have watched though so will check sky tonight to record it

Haven't got Sky so relying on good old Freeview to get my RH fix. Just cheated by looking on Bravo and Series 5 doesn't seem to have Kelly or Jill either. Can't wait to see how that all pans out.

Didn't get Bethenny I must admit. Too sarky for me. Am transfixed by the others and their constant bickering though.

I'm addicted to it, and orange county too! I know what you mean about Alex and her husband.... Very weird! The Alex/Sonja argument was fab! I like Sonja and Bethenny.

Thanks valium - wasn't sure if that was just a Bethenny thread with some references to series 3 & 4.

fairies, glad someone else gets the creeps with Simon. What is it with him?

Sonja is a cow - how can you lie her? Look what she did at the gay equality march - shocking!

Yes, that speech from Sonja was something else ".....Love.....Love......(cue silence and puzzled looks from crowd)...."

Sonja/Alex/Simon all behaved incredibly badly at that march. It comes to something when the tall model one - Kelly? - talks sense.

Alex has got slightly too big for her boots this new series - I used to like her until 'messagegate' to Jill from Bethenny and the 'I'm done' speech that they were all spouting. Alex should've kept her nose out - it had nothing to do with her (hoikes bosom)

Sonja thought it was gay pride - bless her.

Im glad we have this thread. I felt like I was hijaking the Bethenny one.

Im not watching Bethenny. Dont like her. Have they even mentioned why she isnt in this season?

I love Alex and Simon!!! I think they are very genuine with each other. A good match. I didnt like her birthday party this year though.

Who is that new mother of twins that looks about 50?

She's Cindy -dreadful woman!

She has a nanny for each twin!

Oh dear, I'm not going to popular on this thread as so far, I like Cindy. There's still time though as she may be as nuts as the rest of them.

Agree that Alex and Simon are well matched as they are both completely barking. And agree, a birthday party in a park on a side street on a windy island.......hmmmm, would have serious issues with DH if he ever tried that

And yet Simon has always got her birthdays spot on. Alex said it was her best birthday so far so, I'm guessing it was heavily edited. No mention of Bett yet? Did she just stop talking to them all?

Bless her, Alex is easily pleased if that was her best birthday ever. Simon even said to her that he hadn't gotten her any diamonds but gave her a diamond shaped cookie....I would've left the bastard there and then

Have you seen the episode where Cindy has to call for back up when she takes her twins out for lunch ?

Ha no but that wouldn't surprise me. Have you seen her apartment, 'tis immaculate and mostly white. Oh to have a place that clean and tidy when you have children....

We have seen Alex's birthdays leading up to
This one and he always does nice things for her and buys something "tasteful" they just never showed us,

I haven't seen the twins lunch one yet. She's not very hands on with them, is she? How come in these shows they never have American "staff" the way we do?

Why don't they have American's as staff do you mean? Because they employ Mexians usually as they can pay them a pittance.

Ah, don't they have minimum wage?

Don't think so.

I dont understand Luanns situation. In the beginning she was married to the rich old guy and they seemed to live in Manhatten?? And the daughter went to boarding school. Now they have split up and she has a house in the Hamptons. She's just said that her kids grew up in that house and she's only ever in NYC for two days a week and the home help is with the kids. I couldnt sworn they all lived on the Upper East Side.

Ooh, I got all excited when I saw this thread title, but then realised they're just repeating the series that was on last year Will not do spoilers, but trust me, Cindy is just as insane as the rest of 'em.......except for Kelly obvs - mad as a box of frogs, that one!

Its the one with no lips who things shes a sex goddess that does my head in.

I think Cindy just took her false teeth out with her.

Luanne's house in the Hamptons was her weekend and summer house - her kids have always known that home, it's the Family Home - I think that's what she meant.

Kelly and Elle McPherson are practically doubles. Kelly must have a fair bit of maintenance thrown her way.
