I think it's mean not to invite Ramona on the free trip to London. God they've only just got back from Morrocco!

LightHousekeeping · 27/11/2012 23:18

The unpaid interns really get on my nerves. Not the poor interns just the way they are treated. Do they get free board and lodgings?

Mynewmoniker · 27/11/2012 23:53

Will have to catch up as went out early tonight.

Invited all my 'ladies who lunch' to my appartment in Morrocco for the evening... but we decided to go to Mablethorpe instead Grin

notwanking don't you watch Bethennay on Tuesdays on her own show?

NotWankinginaWinterWonderland · 28/11/2012 08:08

Oh I didn't know she had her own show? What does she get up to, I just want to see her and her baby and I kinda miss her bitching Grin

valiumredhead · 28/11/2012 08:16

It's great and has been going on for AGES now. 10pm on E channel on Tuesdays.

She is a multi millionaire now after selling her Skinny Girl Marghaeretta (sp)

Her baby is SO sweet!

NotWankinginaWinterWonderland · 28/11/2012 08:24

Oh no, I have missed the baby!! Angry

I new was going to make lots of money, very witty! I will watch what is left next week I guess I need to flick channels more!

NotWankinginaWinterWonderland · 28/11/2012 08:25

knew (still asleep)

valiumredhead · 28/11/2012 08:27

Baby Bryn is 2 now!

KenDoddsDadsDog · 28/11/2012 09:09

I do NOT like Heather.

valiumredhead · 28/11/2012 09:12

She's very odd, what IS it about her that makes her look like a bloke? Is it her nose or jaw shape? I find myself scrutinising her every episode Grin

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 28/11/2012 09:20

Anyone watching now....Ramona does not know when to stop!!

PolkadotCircus · 28/11/2012 11:18

Hmmmm I'm missing Gill but not Kelly and her annoying fake huge smile and use of the word lugsury.

Quite like Aviva not sure about the other two.

Sonya makes me laugh,she's so nutty.What happened to all her debt?

Love this show.

All the shots are making me want to go to New York badly though-fat chance!!!!

mignonette · 28/11/2012 11:26

It is on at 8:35 in the morning on ITV2 until 10:30 then again at 15:40 on the same channel, Tressy.

I am off on extended sick leave and this show is part of my prescribed recovery Smile

I'm more surprised at Carole taking part as she is NYC 'society' unlike LuAnne who merely thinks she is. I imagine Alex and Simon are so pissed off at not being on the show with President Kennedy's niece!

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 28/11/2012 11:27

I loved it when she was bitching about LuAnne trying to name drop royalty!!

mignonette · 28/11/2012 11:39

That was so funny Hokey wasn't it especially as Carole seems the most pleasant of the bunch so to hear her sharpen her talons a little.....She is part of a family that rightly or wrongly are true 'American Royalty' so I wonder what the Kennedy's think about her participation. Carole's book was pretty good for a popular memoir too. She can write and has won 3 Emmy's for her reportage and producing on ABC.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 28/11/2012 11:44

It was, i have had to google them all this morning as apart from LuAnn and Ramona i had no idea who any of them are.

I was quite surprised to see that she has such credits, it's not exactly highbrow T.V is it!

justanuthermanicmumsday · 28/11/2012 11:50

It's such a trashy show I came upon it a few weeks ago, but I must be trash because I look forward to their arguments. The funny thing is they argue about things I wouldn't argue about. They take 10 mins to make their point when I'm sure most Brits would make the same point in the first 60 secs?

Are these real people? Are all wealthy Americans low life like this, I refuse to believe it. Why do they remain friends?

Ramona has a mental health problem, it can't just be a case of being a little nutty& controlling. Her eyes bulge out constantly. She drinks so much whenever she speaks ,her mouth looks lop sided, and eyes slightly cock eyed, she has drink issues, Pinot anyone?

Luann is obsessed with royalty and only married for wealth & title. Her bf looks like Ross from friends but uglier. She thinks she has class but she's an ass.

Kelly is a cross dressing man. she is a nutter too, and orders people to not feel the way they do, like they can change it on her command?

The new girl Aviva is nice but like heather said she sucks up to ramona too much. She saw ramona turn on her, dont play nice house with a psycho!

Is Carole the ex abc reporter? Well I don't like her, I suspect she's a snake watch out for her, not all miss nicey.

Sown-ya or sonja she seems like a sweety but big time flirt, innuendos, vitamin popping freak. Talks too much. But she seems more normal than rest.

Most the new girls seem a lot nicer than last lost so superficial

In fact most of them talk to much that's what lands them in arguments. Talk less be happier. But I suspect they'd get thrown off the show for being boring like that lady who had the twins she not on the show anymore.

mignonette · 28/11/2012 12:13

Cindy was pretty normal = not on the show for more than one series

janelikesjam · 28/11/2012 12:18

I can't really tell the difference between the new girls, I agree they may be nicer/ more normal. Are there 2 or 3 of them? One of them has funny teeth though and plastic surgery - can't make out what she's saying through it all.

I miss the old girls. I am surprised the others were dropped e.g. Simon and Alex, Jill, etc.

I find LuAnn a bit boring tbh.

Ramone I find her funny, direct and a bit bonkers. Other times absolutely awful (the way she treated her interviewees, criticising LuAnn as a mother).

janelikesjam · 28/11/2012 14:16

Just read the whole thread! And agree with the following ...

DO find LuAnn's "reasonable" voice annoying/patronising at times. But she does have a really nice smile sometimes.

The new woman with the funny teeth and the open relationship with the rock star I also find very weird. Also too much plastic surgery, or very spaced out, its hard to say?

I also don't know if I can be bothered to get to know the new women who seem quite boring and look/sound the same.

Mario - yes film star looks!

valiumredhead · 28/11/2012 14:20

Are all wealthy Americans low life like this, I refuse to believe it

Thing is these are not the 'low life' these woman are extremely wealthy women - houses in the Hamptons alone cost millions let along in Manhatten!

It's easy to tell the difference between the new women -

Heather - looks like a bloke and has shape wear company
Carole - author and related to the Kennedy's
Aviva - Blonde, one leg and 4 kids and multiple phobias.

mignonette · 28/11/2012 15:09

Does anybody agree that LuAnne's new hairstyle gives her layers a 'Spaniel Ears' look?

NotWankinginaWinterWonderland · 28/11/2012 15:17

I don't like it as much. I miss Jill and Bethany this one is just strange it all seems false now. I will still watch it, no doubt.

MrsBucketxx · 28/11/2012 15:21

im loving the new housewives, i was thinkimg that heather was a dude too, she is a nasty peice of work.
