LOVED NY again! The 'Ramona Trap' was so funny! I love how she just doesn't take on anyone's points but, that's Ramona!
Sonja was a mess at the yoga - actually LOLd!
I have missed Aviva tbh, her craziness is needed. Agree that LuAnn has been great (even though I HATED her before this season)

If I was in charge next Season I'd have: Ramona / Sonja / LuAnn / Aviva / Jill / Carole with Kristen & Alex as 'friends'

I haven't missed Aviva at all and she's back next week with her creepy dad, I sometimes think Aviva is very calculating with what she shows us on the show she just seems kind of fake. I just want to see this Leg scene... Does someone she rip it off for attention

I liked this weeks Ep of NY the intervention with ramona was great stuff her facial expressions are hilarious, Luann is by far the best one cant believe she was demoted why couldn't they add her to the intro these past couple of weeks ? Its a shame about the ratings

Finally watched the Ladies Of London preview and I liked it. I think Juliette is going to be my favourite. Hopefully it's gonna be a hit.

He's talking a load of rubbish. Atlanta will begin filming soon and Andy will have an idea who will be back. I'm surprised the Beverly Hills cast hasn't leaked yet, there hasn't really been that many rumours either - although I did read last week that the only one not coming back is Joyce.

The ratings table on the article is quite surprising. I'm not surprised this season of Atlanta was the highest rated. Or that season 2 of Beverly Hills was they're highest rated. I thought season 4 on New Jersey would have been higher than season 2 for some reason.

The biggest shock was season 4 of New York being the highest rated for their franchise. It doesn't really make sense as to why they had a cast cull. They would do anything to get those 2 million viewers back. Something dramatic needs to happen next season to get the viewers up or its lights out - Bethenny and/or Jill need to come back, it's the only solution imo. I can't believe OC ratings peaked in Season 5 - that seems so long ago! I can't really remember much that happened during that season other than Jeana leaving half way through. DC rating better than Miami isn't really a shock, it's just confusing as to why they axed DC.

As much as I like Miami I can see either a mini season (i.e. 8-10 episodes) or calling it quits. A drastic cast change wont work, but neither will the current cast. With the OC doing well, it's only really NY in trouble. Beverly Hills is fine, lets hope next season is a return to form quality wise.

I'm still holding out for a Dallas edition. I doubt it's happening though - unless Miami or New York gets canned.

To be honest as much as I enjoy all the housewives shows I wouldn't mind them clearing out NY and Miami and starting again in a couple of new cities. As you said, they will need to do something drastic for NY to regain their viewers and if this season, which is their best for years IMO is rating poorly, there's nothing they can do to regain the viewers. Even more reason to bring back the Zarin. If people don't tune back in with her on the show then axe it and let's have a new one.

Maybe if Ladies Of London takes of they might just ditch Miami from RH and rebrand it with 'Ladies of Miami' with a whole new cast. But I think they need a new city overall what about Las Vegas? Texas.. that was rumoured i think but they couldn't find a suitable cast or something like that. I think Vegas would be good as its very high end city and it would be nice to see some of the wives who are married to some of the casino owners.

NY if any of the producers had a head then they know the only way to save NY is to bring back Jill as you said Andrew why they messed with the cast in the first place was a stupid move!

Bravo need to bite the bullet and get her back. It's clearly a pride thing for Andy & the network knowing that Jill basically won. Andy needs to call in his favours with Bethenny. If he begs her enough she will do it, in a limited capacity at least. Next season they could get Jill back, show her and Bethenny make amends and then keep it moving without Bethenny in Season 8. I think Ramona may be needing a season out some time soon, her crazy act is becoming old. Apparently Kelly pops up at some point this season, I assume they'll see how the reaction to her returning is before inviting previous cast members back (if the reaction was popular). If it is good I can see them offering Alex & Jill back and inviting Kelly to be a friend.

If Jill can't resurrect RHONY then no one can.


That could work! Maybe in a few years time there will be no more 'real housewives of...' but instead it will be 'Ladies of..' It was definitely a smart branding move not naming it a housewives show due to the recent failings among the brand. If they do a Ladies of Miami I'd love to see Adriana on it. She's fab TV.

Las Vegas sounds great for a place! I do wonder though if they will be able to cast a good cast without it coming off too much as a bunch of young bunny boilers.(That's assuming not a lot of middle-aged, 40+, rich vegas women would do it) I'm not sure how many people still own casino's, I thought most of them had faced the same fate as the Maloofs (having to sell majority of the shares). I would love if we could get some real Vegas royalty though.

If New York gets cancelled I'd like a Hamptons edition because the Hamptons are something else. Really stunning and full of the super rich, the problems just lie in the casting. Because of its reputation it'll be hard for the show to get people on.

I totally agree about Miami. Its such a shame it hasn't connected with viewers. Miami is a great city, and the show itself was great, the change in quality from season 1 to 2 was incredible. Season 3 was the best looking HW season yet, the production values were perfection. Id really just like to know what's actually happening with Miami one way or the other, they weren't at the up-fronts, and there's been no mention of them apart from the rumours they pushed back filming until late summer/autumn.

Its a shame NY isn't getting better ratings this season either. I'm loving it so far. I really hope they can do something to turn it around, Id hate to see it cancelled. I think its got another season in it, but after that if the viewers aren't there I don't see it sticking around. They should get over themselves and get Jill Zarin back

If Miami does get axed though Id love to see a new franchise start up in a new city. I'm right there with you Andrew, I'm dying for a Real Housewives of Dallas! Its been rumoured forever, but nothing ever seems to come of it which is so annoying. Id be seriously shocked if its because they cant pull a decent cast together, Dallas is full of wealthy women who would be great on a HW show. My boyfriend is from there (his family still live there) so I've been quite a few times in the last few years, and its such a great city, so cosmopolitan and there is some serious wealth to be found there! The homes in places like Southlake (gorgeous place), Highland Park and Preston Hollow would make you weep!

Yeah the Hamptons would be good but i think they are really against reality TV lol as they hate that the Kardashians are filming there.

Las Vegas would be perfect i mean i have been there and its a city like no other. The backdrop alone would make it look amazing But yeah I dont think we should worry about RH dropping shows cause i think Bravo will just rebrand it with the Ladies of

I agree completely, New York and Miami should be cancelled at this point. Keep the focus on BH, OC, ATL & NJ. Even if those four are rating good for the next few years, Bravo needs some new ideas.

New York can stay. I'm not the network and couldn't give two sh*ts about the ratings.

This season is head and shoulders above season 4 of New York which was in my opinion the worst season of any housewives franchise ever.

Let's get #BringBackTheZarin trending on Twitter

I wouldn't mind Boston only cause I'd like a glimpse of rich Irish Americans. I mean we have African Americans in ATL and Italian in NJ, some Latin in Miami about time there was an Irish American group of women

I definitely agree that Jill could be the savior for NY. I can already see a big campaign for the launch of the next season with 'GUESS WHO'S BACK?' everywhere, with a TV advert simply with Jill saying 'BOBBY'.

But seriously, I do want Jill back.

I don't know why people are saying New York is getting axed Miami's ratings are a lot worse and that hasn't been axed and OCs ratings aren't that much higher.

As Much as I would like to see Alex return to NY....it will never happen she is over the show and besides would bravo have her back when she is spilling so much Tea from what actually goes on behind the scenes

The worst season ever goes to Miami season 1 by a loooooong way, imo. RHONJ season 5 was pretty poor too. I thought New York season 4 was ok, the producers messed up by chopping and changing the timeline and then re-editing parts of the show as it was airing (Alex revealed both of these things in her recaps). The cast splitting into two teams definitely didn't help either, it took the element of excitement away...and then there was Cindy who was just a problem in herself. I don't know why they cast her, she wasn't a good fit and a 7th housewife was too much.


That would be hilarious.

It would be great promo for the show, for sure. Or they could just have a random advert pop up during the commercial break for another housewives show and just have Jill saying "did ya miss me?" with the #RHONY thing on screen to get it trending. They definitely shouldn't tell the housewives she's back. They should take a trip around the 3rd episode and she can just show up - that could be the advert, just a black screen with #RHONY on it playing the audio of her big entrance.

Me too. She was always great TV.


I think it's because their ratings have reached an all time low twice (1.2million) this season. The ratings are only a little higher than Miami's which is quite shocking considering New York is an established brand and was once regularly pulling in 2 million viewers. OC are pulling in 300,000-600,000 more than New York.

Apparently Apollo broke his bail and left the state to host a nightclub event. He's such a tool.

I think she would come back if the price was right.

BIB- LOL, I know. They must be losing their minds about her, she's revealing everything and anything. I'm surprised they haven't sent her a cease and desist letter when she puts the producers on blast for interfering and editing the show.

I'm really sorry, I imagine this question pops up a lot, but can any of you tell me where I can watch the rh online for free?

I've HAD IT with itv and the way they only show certain seasons and then repeat or jump to another franchise. I mostly want to watch RHOA.
Found plenty of sites that claim to be free, however part of the registration process involves giving them my bank card details, and I'm not comfortable doing that.

Thank you.

Whilst I am here! Is the general consensus that Apollo will be going down for a long time, or is there a chance he could p make some kind of deal? I feel very sorry for his two little boys. I read today he has been partying and hitting on other women in clubs, so I guess that means the marriage is over, but you would think that seen as he's facing 30 years in jail, he would want to spend as much time as possible with his sons.

I started S1 of OC and boy was the RH different back in the day, haha. Anyone know which season the drama starts to kick in?

Probably S4 when Gretchen turned up. I found Seasons 1, 2 & 3 boring.

Thanks! It is quite boring, but I really don't like starting shows in the middle of seasons so I'm going to continue from where I am. There's not many episodes in the first 3 seasons so it shouldn't be too bad.

I'm late to the party but I'm watching NY Season 6 finally! I'm only two episodes in but I already hate Aviva once more. I've seen that she's missing for a few episodes which sounds great to me!

Well I think the 'partying and hitting on other women' stuff has been greatly exaggerated.

I mean as much as the blogs like to make out he's out at these clubs shagging about there's very little in the way in evidence to suggest he is. And most the stories seem to come from when he's doing legitimate PA's at clubs and the 'other women' are just clubbers he's paid to say hello and have his picture taken with.

And the thing is this is what needs to be done when you are facing jail time for this kind of fraud. Much like why Teresa has work, work, worked, why she's stayed with the show despite all the crap, why she does (or did) so many personal appearances etc. It looks good that you are working as much as you can to repay the money you've defrauded.

So while it might look like Apollo is an arrogant arse partying the night away while he's facing jail time and his wife and kids are at home... in fact he might very well be that.... however these PAs will undoubtedly be something he's been advised to do as many as he can because it is paid work and the more it looks like you are working to repay the debt the better it looks in court.

So sad to hear NY isn't doing well, it's been SO good! The cast has really found its feet and the 'drama' has been hilarious if not entertaining. If The Zarin was to return I think the only cast member I'd change would be Heather. Ramona would have to stay if Jill returned: those two together was TV gold! I really hope it doesn't get cancelled, its one of my favourite franchises.

Haven't seen any of OC season 9 yet... is it any good?
