I have never paid any attention to Melbourne until now, and I have to say I really like it! i'm only on episode 3 though so my opinion might change. In my opinion, the production value is pretty high, it is filmed beautifully and I also like the intro, the introductory cards at the beginning of scenes and the bottom strips. Right now Jackie's my favourite, she's a little cray-cray but I like it.

Claudia Jordan has joined Atlanta. She filmed during the opening of Peter and Kordells new bar with Kenya & Cynthia. If this is true, I'm happy about it. She was great on The Apprentice, and All-Stars Apprentice last year. It's funny that she was filming with Kenya because works with Porsha at Dish Nation- whatever that is.
Demetria McKinney has also been said to have joined. Nothing about her filming with anyone though. |

BH Season 5 rumours
As for Adrienne's comments - well, let's just say, it's obvious damage control. I'm still curious how she managed to get back on the show again. I thought she had pretty much burned her bridges. I bet a big part of her wanting to go back was seeing what transpired between Brandi and Lisa last season. I'm sure it's always gratifying to watch the 2 people who teamed up to go against you turn on each other. Or maybe she's just a famewhore and any publicity is good publicity. |

I'm sure it's always gratifying to watch the 2 people who teamed up to go against you turn on each other. Or maybe she's just a famewhore and any publicity is good publicity. Usually, where housewives are concerned I'd agree with this, but if she was a famewhore she would have stayed on the show and turned up to the reunion. It's clear she has more self-worth than to be dragged through the mud for the sake of pennies - or at least that's all the salary was to her. I think it's a mixture of wanting closure and promoting her business interests (she has a new jewelry line out this fall). Adrienne doesn't like to fight, that's clear, she isn't a nasty person, or at least she never came across that way on the show. I'm hoping she calls Yolanda out. Yolanda came for Adrienne from the get go so she could align herself with Lisa & Brandi - which wasn't fair at all. Adrienne is back because Andy doesn't have a say in casting anymore. He's got to do what the network tells him since he got that big demotion. Producers know Adrienne will bring controversy and the show needs something like that to shoosh it up a little. I'm hoping Adrienne and Camille play a big role in the new season. It's kinda sad that all the originals are returning but Taylor. Even if she isn't that well liked, I still liked her and I think the show needs someone like her. The producers totally missed a beat with her, it would have been great to see her and John play out on TV. I hope the new women don't come in with biased opinions on the ladies. I'm not really interested in watching Lisa Rinna come for Brandi because she watched the show and decided she didn't like her. I'm hoping Faye comes back for a few scenes. I'd love to see her gloat how everything she said about Brandi and Lisa turned out to be true. Real Housewives of London http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/r...4#.U-ip3PldXhs I've just noticed this. It's airing on E4 in the autumn this year. It's being made by the same production company as Made in Chelsea so it'll definitely have a good production value. I wonder if Millie Macintosh will star in it now she's married. |

Wow, so there's a Real Housewives of London and a Real Housewives of Cheshire coming? Should be very interesting, since Bravo don't start any new cities anymore it's good to see other countries doing their own housewives shows (as long as it's made well)

What did everyone think of the latest RHONJ episode?
I couldn't hate Amber and Jim any more than I do now, they really are horrible. Jim is so condescending, glad Dina put him in his place. Teresa looks very uncomfortable this season, total reversal from last season. Her scenes with her family will be her asset this season since she won't be bringing much drama. I liked the scene with Rosie and Joe too! I thought I'd be missing Kathy but I'm not. |

just a bad version of a RH lol.I hope it has the same style as the RH shows and I hope they dont have more then 2 Americans it needs to be british women if not all british. with it being on e4 maybe it will get good numbers. I also hope its not just snobby women. Its good to see some UK places get a RH franchise. |

Kim seems like such a cool person. It wasn't that long ago some actress on WWHL said Kim helped her get a house when she was broke and had loads of kids. Now, it's revealed she looked after someone's kid while they were in rehab. Well done Kim. I hope they highlight stuff like this on the show, it'd really show her in a different light. |

Ooh an actual Real Housewives of London, albeit on E4. That's interesting. Its either going to be great, or incredibly bad, but ill give it a go. So this, and Real Housewives of Cheshire that's going to be on the ITV channel? I'm not convinced on either, but you never know.
It is nice to see some home grown attempts at a Real Housewives though, I've never been a fan of the international ones, Vancouver was great first season, until the utter disaster that was Season 2. I just couldn't watch it again. Melbourne I just found a bit dull to be honest, it didn't grab me. People do seem to like it though, so maybe it was just me. Bravo are showing it in the US now and it seems they are enjoying it I think. I agree Ladies of London was basically a London RH, just with another name. It wasn't great ill admit, but I actually think it could find its feet with a few tweaks to the show. Of course the ratings were pretty bad so chances of it getting a Season 2 are pretty slim I guess. Caroline was brilliant, she was a real find and I think Bravo should do something with her at least. If she was based in the States Id love to see her on a HW show, maybe NYC or BH. Atlanta- I like the idea of fresh blood, I haven't heard of these women before, but lets hope they fare better than last seasons attempts, Mynique and Natalie went nowhere fast! Id still love Sheree back in some form but after all the initial rumours it seems to have just come to nothing sadly. Maybe Season 8?! Beverly Hills - Season 5 seems like its coming together. I really hope Camille is a bigger part of this season, so far all we really hear about is Adrienne. Id rather have more Camille than Adrienne, but I guess we will see what happens. I like the idea of having originals back, minus Taylor though. She can stay far, far away! I don't mind having Lisa Rinna on, but Eileen Davidson as well, I just think its too much. They are both ex soap actresses and I'm just going to feel like they are acting. Agree with Andrew, I have no desire to watch either of them come in with pre conceived ideas about the other women and start drama from that. |

I have a question about Andy, why was he demoted at Bravo? Did he do something wrong?

Only 1 thing I want to mention about this week's New Jersey -
Nicole: ''I'm very angry that this fight took place in front of upstanding members of our community. People I have to see in the Post Office and in Dunkin' Donuts.''

I suspect there was more going on behind the scenes though. Apparently, when they moved in to the new building in New York, Andy got his huge office taken off him and given one the size of a closet...and it isn't really his office because it get's used for conference meetings too. It seems he really ticked someone off, perhaps his tendency to let personal feelings get in the way of the shows success was a factor. There have been rumours that the extension of the WWHL show contract was a consolation gift to Andy to make it look like he hadn't been outright fired as well. |

The OC was crazy good this week. This by far best season and one of the best franchises in the housewives family.
I'm not sure whether to believe Tamra & Heather or Lizzie & Danielle. I'm swaying to the former though. I think Lizzie and Danielle started this drama to try and secure their spots on the show because they haven't done anything else all season. Tamra knew she was the target the minute Vicki said she wouldn't go to the toilet with her. I thought she handled it quite well though. Lizzie and Danielle must have been annoyed that she never gave them the satisfaction and camera time from an argument though. Roll on next weeks finale! |

New Jersey topped 2 million this week (2.007 million). Nice to see them gaining some ground back.

Yeah, a costume party in your boyfriends basement. Its the Jersey version of the MET Ball! I also liked Amber and Melissa's lunch. Amber "You are a very tainted person" Quote:

I think this season has been great so far, it feels fresh and that was what Jersey needed. Badly! I need to catch up on The OC now. Cant believe the finale is next week Agree with all the comments that this has been the best season of The OC yet, for me, Atlanta is my #1 but The OC is right up there with it now. The Reunion should be all sorts of fun as well.

Season 10 - keep the same cast and add another woman that brings it like Shanon. If they have to remove somone, lizzie as she has kinda been boring but it would mean adding 2. I would love if the brought every rhoc housewife back on. |

Same as RHOC which topped over 2million mark.

I would love if the brought every rhoc housewife back on. Lizzie has already quit, or at least she has made it seem that way. I agree with trying to keep everyone though. I like the 5 person cast, it works well for the OC so I don't want a 6 person cast, unless Jeana comes back, then I'll make an exception. If Lizzie has quit, I'd be open to a new wife or promoting Danielle, especially after Tamra saying no one likes her, there must be more with her that we haven't seen. I'd like an event with every OC wife attending, maybe the finale party, but I doubt it. Kimberly lives in Chicago, Jo lives in New York and the rest of them seem pretty busy with work. I wouldn't want a set up like Jeana in the season 6 party either though, and with Gretchen attending, I couldn't see that not happening. |

I don't think Lizzie will be back next season. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that she basically quit the show before Season 9 began to air. Who knows? Maybe she was just annoyed that her best friend Danielle wasn't included as a full-time HW so she was worried her own airtime would be very limited.
I think it would be interesting to have Jeana replace Lizzie next year. |

I've loved OC this season. The knives are certainly out for Tamra. At first I thought Heather was going to get the bitch edit, but lately it's been Tamra, though Heather hasn't redeemed herself.
I absolutely hate the numerous flashbacks. I can remember what went down, thank you very much. They never used to do it so much, now it's statement then cue lengthy repeat of said incident. It's extremely irritating or is it just me? I'm going to be killing myself laughing when Tamra slightly !! overreacts to Ryan leaving and getting married, as shown in the previews. Desperate? Needy? You're children are born so you can raise them into independent adults. Obviously Tamra missed this at Parenting 101

It's extremely irritating or is it just me? It keeps it fresh for me because sometimes a scene that originally seems pretty pointless, and can go over your head, but in the context of a flashback you see how it adds up and becomes relevant - if that makes sense. Plus I enjoy seeing all the crappy things someone, like Tamra, has done all in the one go. It really does highlight how awful she can be.
