I liked NY, cannot wait for Bethanny vs Heather just because I really cannot stand Heather. The bar was fun and I loved seeing Ramona chatting to all the guys and it was refreshing that they seemed her age when all the other chicks are running around looking for a 20 year old, I mean that Carole story is a total fake, no way is she legitimately dating that guy, she realised she needed an individual story and this young guy is it.

I love Dorinda but that was so shady the way the producers included her asking the random guy to check her coat, that kind of what many would see as casual racism was picked up by some on twitter so even if it was a mistake on her part it was kinda shady of producers to include it knowing the current atmosphere in America.


She spoke about her kid walking, which I'd imagine was just the kid developing slowly when last year she tried to make out she could be permanently disabled.

Didn't realise Kim's thing with Dr Phil didn't end well.

Does ANYONE believe Carole's storyline? It's like shes read/watched every stereotypical drama about the cougar dating the young guy, its actually quite embarassing.

Love Ramona as usual. Always loved Luann, glad shes a full time HW again.

Nope there is not a single believable thing about Carole and that guy, even how they met was so staged for the cameras. If she had met some young guy between seasons it might have worked but he conveniently is there in Luann's and she pounces.

Ive been so busy with work, had loads to catch up with on HWs! Ive loved reading through everyone’s thoughts so ill try and keep it short(ish) lol

Beverly Hills- by far the best season since the early seasons. I loved it! Eileen and Lisa R were great additions. Please Bravo bring them both back. I hope Eileen returns. I can see poor Yolanda having to step away though, she's just not well enough and its such a shame. She's had a hard time with her lyme disease. I hope she can pop up now and again though if she can.

The reunion was something else though. Kim. Need I say more?! This is exactly why I feel Kim shouldn't be on this show. I wasn't even surprised when I heard about her arrest. She's a trainwreck. Her issues are too serious and shouldn't be fodder for the Housewives. I always thought being on the show wouldn't be good for her. I hope she goes to rehab and can sort herself out. Its uncomfortable to watch and reality tv isn't the place for her. God knows where she and Kyle go from here. Its too much. She really flipped the crazy at the reunion acting insane. I've actually really quite liked Kyle this season, mostly but that might be because Kim has been so all over the place. Id actually feel sorry for Kim if she could just own her sh*t, but shes in total denial and you cant reason with someone like that.

I'm SO over Brandi aswell but I do think she will be back next season. Id love Camille to come back full time. I wish we had seen more of her this season. Even Adrienne aswell.

Atlanta- This has always been my fave franchise. Ive loved it from day one, but I can totally agree this season has really been lacking. I do still enjoy it, but its not been Atlanta anywhere near its best. Changes needed next season for sure.

I don’t really see the Claudia hate. I’ve actually really liked her. Can she be a little thirsty? Sure, but I liked her. Id like to see more of her at least, and learn a bit more about her. Surprisingly, Id actually bring Porsha back aswell, why she lost her peach this season I don’t know. She’s been way more involved in the show than Nene has. Miss Leakes has just checked out and is SO over it all. I miss the old days when I loved to watch her, before the ego got astronomical. I don’t see Bravo letting her go though. I did enjoy her scenes in NY preparing for Broadway. Say what you will but she's taken her fame from Housewives and ran with it.

I really enjoyed the episodes In the Philippines, it was nice to see them actually get along and have fun. What was the deal with Demetria though? She was obv meant to be a proper part of the season, but she barely featured at all- and didn't get a talking head either.

The Reunion looks like its going to pretty different for an Atlanta reunion. Ill be watching though obviously.

Next season Id love to see a Sheree return, please Bravo make it happen. The thought of Sheree and Kenya gunning for each other gives me LIFE . It be insanity, in the best way! Kenya cant go anywhere, I love watching her. I have to agree with the comments about Cynthia, Id love to see her on RHONY. I think she would really fit in, she's always been vocal about NY being home for her and when she first joined Atlanta I remember her having scenes in NY and she just seems like a different person there. I think it be great.

New York- Loving the new season! It feels like a refreshed show for me, its got a vibe of the early seasons about it and I love it. Even Bethenny’s return is working for me. I'm still not a fan as such, but I admit I do enjoy watching her back on the show way more than I thought I would. I cant wait for it to kick off between her and Heather. I'm really taking to the new woman, Dorinda aswell, she seems like fun and a good addition to the show.

Its nice seeing Ramona being pretty honest about the Mario situation and not just trying to pretend its all great, like last season. Looks like she and Sonja may be on the outs though, Sonja just makes me cringe so much.

I'm so glad NY seems to be doing better in the ratings aswell. it’s the first franchise I got hooked on so Vie always got a soft spot for it and want it to do well. This season looks great though. It seems to be hitting its stride again.

Now that BH, and Atlanta are finished up I'm going to catch up with Melbourne. I've got a few eps to go so looking forward to that, Melbourne has really surprised me with how much I've enjoyed it.

I see that Amber has a cancer recurrence already, that's not good as likely to be an aggressive type in someone of that age.

The Claudia haters are all Kandi haters too, theyre basically just Nene's cult fans who'll attack anyone who calls her out. The latest post on the Facebook of the show about Kandi calling out Nene has a ton of anti-Kandi hate when all Kandi is doing is speaking the truth. I can't tell which fanbase is more delusional, Nene or Brandi Glanville's.

Ooo I think they are well matched in their delusion and lack of judgement

Kim apparently went to rehab, eventually...

Just watching the classic Bethenny and LuAnn 'snake' fight and lisa rinna showed up!! She really hasn't changed at all :P
Been watching NY from the beginning and I'm really getting that feeling back now in season 7! The only thing I'd change now is getting Jill back...

Is there any news on NJ or is that completely on a hiatus until Teresa is out?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/sear...eal+housewives

Several articles here including Kandi and Todd's IVF.

Nene lovers are INSANE!

I'm really liking NY this season. Love Luann but I found it so hypocritical when she was screwing up her face when Ramona said Mario dates girls in their 20s and 30s yet it's okay for her to be felt up my a 24 year old and be engaged to a man in his 30s.

Full description of Kim's Dr Phil interview
http://www.realitytea.com/2015/04/28...-painful-past/

Just watched the Dr Phil interview with Kim Richards. Very sad watching. Just hope now she is in rehab that she finally gets well.
Atlanta reunion part 1 was ok. Nene's attitude was as always laughable with her 'yeah, i'm to blame, it's my fault' BS. I did like how Kandi read her for pure filth. I can't see how a 3 part reunion is required for this mess of a season, but i'll watch.
Also saw on Twitter that Shannon, Tamra and Heather are very pally now, calling each other the three musketeers. That's gonna be me going off Shannon I think.

NOOO! I hope she's not in with those two harridans! Shannon and Vicky were so good together and really funny!

Watching NY now and I am just loving it. Dorinda is a brilliant addition - in that restaurant giving her bf what's what made me laugh she really wasn't pleased
I didn't think I'd say this either but Bethenny being back has really boosted the show; and Ramona is better than ever

Just a sideline... RH of Cheshire has also been recomissioned for a 2nd series btw. Quite enjoyed it in the end, the beginning could have easily put others off though tbf.

There were a lot of stories on blogs and whatnot during filming on NY, all about how Bethenny was disappointing producers because she wasn't getting into conflicts. Quite obvious that these stories were coming from fellow cast members trying to downplay her role in the show with fans. Considering she got a huge pay cheque at the expense of Ramona and Luann (who would ordinarily have gotten a huge pay rise at this point), considering she's BFF's with Andy Cohen and she probably has something else lined up on Bravo - I can imagine she put a lot of noses out of joint before filming even started.

So it's no real surprise that all the major conflicts we've seen so far have all involved Bethenny. She did come across like a total bitch this episode. Heather started to grate on me quite a bit last season so I was eagerly waiting for her to meet her match but she somehow comes out of this looking well in comparison. That's twice we've seen Bethenny be quite dismissive of Heather. She was also dismissive of Kristen too, not only not inviting her to her birthday dinner, but little things like referring to her as ''that other girl''. Funnily enough, she isn't like that with Carole - who just so happens to also be friends with Andy...

More stuff on Kim's childhood/background. I'd seen similar on Reality Tea comments pages.

NY is just on fire and I'm loving it, Im actually glad we have Bethany back now yeah she's annoying but she sure has spiced things up, looking forward to even more Bethany vs Heather Kristen is just boring she has hardly had any screen time and when she does she is just at home -_-. Dorinda is already y favourite i love her character and she has a bratty daughter but i like there on screen time

Atlanta reunion was good but i wasn't amazed by it, 3 parts for a dull season i just dont know why they bothered. NeNe i think is playing the producers i think she knows she is coming back but wants it to look like she won't so she gets a pay rise. I dont know something just seems like she is acting like this just for the extra $$$. Im actually over her she brings little now compared to her first few seasons cause she was the show. Now she is being over shadowed and yeah her place can be taken.

I forget that Kristen is a HW. I hope she has more scenes later on in the season. With 8 HWs I don't see why she wasnt demoted to friend of.

I hate to say it but Bethenny was right on RHONY about inviting people to her birthday she didn't even know. In what parallel universe should she feel guilty about not inviting a stranger to her birthday bash? Heather was just looking for a conflict resolution scene. Sorry but she was wrong on this one.

Loved this episode, even though I thought the Dorina scene with her BF went on way to long. She should give that daughter of hers a knock on the head. She's letting her rule her love life and that is not cute.

Carole playing the cougar this season and not being focused on work is the opposite of what she was like on her first season. Is she secretly writing another book that is connected to this new way of being? Hmmm.

Ramona is letting go and is showing a softer side of her and I am loving it. She's still the zany person she always was, but more relatable somehow. Ditching Mario is the best thing she ever did.

I watched the RHOA reunion part 1, and I don't even care tbh. Nene is her usual shady self and won't accept that she's a difficult person in general. What is the point of Porsha being there? She's sat there telling Claudia her storyline was her, but at the same time, Porsha's storyline was Claudia! I cannot with brainless bimbo's. Phaedra and Kenya's make up didn't last long did it? Glad Kenya brought up Fakedra's hypocrisy when it comes to her bible thumping. If she is what it means to be a "good Christian", then no wonder church attendance numbers have dwindled to nothing.

Rhony is great! Dorinda has been a great addition.

I think Bethany has been treated unfairly since she left the show in the perception the press generate of her, but I have to say I am not liking her.While I agree with her not inviting people she doesn't know to her party her reaction to Heather seemed unwarranted.

I am team Heather so far.

Carole bores me to tears but looks like Luann is going to make mountains of mole hills out of this chef thing for a storyline. (She doesn't want demoted again)

Not really sure what to make of Dorinda now to be honest. I loved her in episode 1 but not really liking her now . The way she spoke to her boyfriend was just awful and I really don't like her daughter. Hopefully, she'll go back to the way she was in ep 1.
It's really kicking off on Twitter between Luann and Carole/ Heather. The Countess has been on fire and I prefer her over Carole and Heather who still don't feel right on this show for some reason, I have never clicked with either of them. Likewise Kristen. Seriously, why does she still have her apple? Is it as a favour to Brandi Glanville?
I'm really liking Bethenny returning and at first I was not looking forward to it, as I went right off her, but she's good for the show. Ratings for the last episode were down though. Hopefully, they'll rise as it is really good.

I don't like Dorinda's guy at all, he is so damn passive aggressive or something. So glad Heather/Carole will be in the firing line this year after last year where they looked like top dogs going in on Aviva and Sonja. Carole's guy storyline is so fake and made up for the show, no way are they having sex.

Last episode was kinda dull because for me they are putting way to much emphasis on Bethanny and she needs to reel it in a bit, she's just too much for me at the moment even if I'm with her on the not inviting Kristen thing. Kristen is just pointless but some drama must happen later on because surely they'd just have her listed as a friend otherwise.

ATL

Loved Kandi and Claudia and Nene was just so typical with her "you're right and I'm wrong thing" I mean she seriously is blind to any level of reasonable criticism, Kandi's points were all totally valid.

Reality Tea's recaps of the Atlanta Reunions are better than the reunion itself.

http://www.realitytea.com/2015/04/27...ecap-dejaview/

So Melbourne has finished and what a fantastic season! These girls don't hold back and just go for it. Very excited for the reunion.

Not believing Carole's storyline at all. She shouldve been demoted. If this season continues to be about how they can all pay 20 year olds to be their dates its gonna be just as boring as the previous two seasons.
