Im on the first one. Loving Dorindas look this season. Ramona looks older wit( her new face lift. Im not missing Bethanny and I am liking the new one Leah and Im interested to hear her story and how she came to be friends with Tinsley who was desparate to get married last time I saw her.

@heartonastring Did you really like Alex? She and Simon were so weird & creepy! And utterly pretentious, social climbing desperados Grin

@EdinaMonsoon I really did! I could see they were complete social climbers and quirky (husband as super odd) but she seemed more "real" than the others. So got some flack for how she was too. I think they were interesting to watch, poor jill zarin was utterly repelled by them!!

I liked them both and loved that they were hip enough to know that Brooklyns were its at. Loved their house.

Im sick of this season I cannot stand the screeching its really putting me off watching it.

Who was Dorindas husband that she entertained all those dignitaries? Is she quietly loaded more than them all? Sonjas flat is abit of a comedown shes such a tight git I cant stand her. Working her interns to the ground.

I watch them all on hayu its monthly subscription like £5 i think , can watch all sessions! The problem is i think with vicki is her ego just got too big the way she acted at reunion was shocking, but also she knows outrageous behaviour gets ratings and thats what they Ultimately want. So it suits her. From social media looks like they have own show

I also question how much awareness they have , of how their behaviour effects peoples perception of them. So if ur mean like dorinda then she must be aware she wont be liked, i do think that they diecide to be the mean one of the series and act accordingly, like dawn on Cheshire, im sure she agreed to be villan . I watch them all! Lol

I have to watch RH shows when everyone is out or in bed. They can’t tolerate the screaming/rowing.

I only watch OC, BH and NYC. I tried Cheshire but couldn’t stand it. It’s a poor copy.

I did watch Dawn from Cheshire doing a make up vid on Instagram the other day. She’s terrifying close up!

Oh Cheshire isn’t comparable.
Love OC BH NYC- used to like New Jersey and Atlanta but they almost became parody’s if themselves, especially Atlanta, so contrived

I seem to recall that the episodes are having to be re-edited in parts - some in light of comments made by some needing to change in light of the BLM awareness and also because of Denise threatened legal action..... I’ll look back to see where I read that....

I used to really like Dorinda but she's been so vile so far this season that's she's no fun to watch. Her comment to Tinsley about the turkey baster was cruel.

I think Dorinda, Sonja and Ramona are trying to be extra dramatic to ensure their contracts are renewed. Leah is two decades younger than them and will be interesting to see if the producers will cast someone younger when they replace Tinsley.

I am liking Luann a lot more this season, she seems to have chilled out now that her probation has ended and looks well and healthy.

I stopped watching. All that screeching and "Look at me" over performing did my head in.

Yes! Finally I've found my group to share a (very hidden and guilty) love of RHONY with. Does anyone wonder about what the 'civilians' in the restaurants think when the group are having yet another slanging match over tea? Do you think their meal is compensated for basically having their meal destroyed? These places aren't that cheap to eat in and I'm not sure I would be happy if I was on a date night with DH and that was going on next to us.

Duggeehugs82 · 29/06/2020 19:42

Im sure what ive read is they all have to sign contracts before so they will be aware and possibly want it, and want to see drama

Oh right so lets say you booked at table for 8pm one night, you would be told that RHONY were filming there that night and they'll be lots of shouting/drama (because it's been orchestrated by the producers that way)? If you're happy to witness that you can agree and fulfil the booking. If not, you can book for another evening?

I was in Central Park once having a drink and they were filming a reality show there. Not the housewives and no one was interested. They take it to a different level though. I thought Jill was coming back?

Have I just imagined it or is someone using an IV drip on episode 4 of the latest season? It’s when they’re sat at the table outside and Luann is revealing how she’s been tempted to drink the night before. Have I just managed to miss a whole back story? It was only briefly shown on a zoomed out shot of the table.

Vitamin shots probably. They were advertised everywhere when we were in Vegas.

It's back on Hayu, the interview bits have been filmed at home. Hoping BH will be back soon too.

I just watched the latest episode. The pieces to camera are obviously post-lockdown and the poor quality of the filming/lighting/audio is quite surprising.

The hallowe'en party antics were awful. Sonja was so pissed and slurry, sloppy and embarrassing. Leah was yet again mental when drunk - I felt sorry for her ex who looked very uncomfortable. And Dorinda! I think she's just a cow actually. Most of these women should avoid alcohol.

I'd been looking forward to the new series for ages but really not enjoying it. I think I prefer RHOBH anyway but am enjoying the various Below Deck programmes so much more

@RockingMyFiftiesNot me too, it seems to have lost its humour and lighthearted-ness this season

Report
EdinaMonsoon · 06/07/2020 19:49

I found the latest episode very uncomfortable to watch. Sonja was so drunk that they should have stopped filming her IMO. The way in which Ramona was given a pasting was vile too. I know she's a PITA but she doesn't deserve being subjected to that kind of humiliation.

I wonder how any of them can believe that they are looking good on camera. I've always enjoyed RHONY (aside from Bethenny's narcissistic hysterical screaming last season) but it feels like the behaviours and drama is becoming more extreme now - kind of more like OC (which I detest). It feels uncomfortably like watching the very public demise of these women's reputations and mental health whereas it used to be about getting a glimpse into a fun lifestyle.

I have yet to see latest RHONYC however, have kept abreast of gossip.

Dorinda appears to have kept up her role as NY Mrs Bucket where in reality she's a classless drunk / (alleged) coke fiend who married well - twice - yet insists moves in the upper echelons of NY intellectual society.

She was an ex-restaurant hostess / 80's aerobic instructor.

I have to admire her chutzpah in parading the vile, sweaty, inarticulate, abusive John M (can't be arsed to look up his surname) as a credible boyfriend - then again, Red Scarf man anyone??!!

Bit strange to be wailing and rending her clothes NOW over last husband's death when she moved on within six months with said sweaty, unpleasant, coke dealer boyfriend.

I understand she's been going after Tinsley because, basically, she's jealous that TM is the real deal re moneyed (brainless) WASP?
