Carole is clearly ripping off Sex And The City with her ''storylines''. I said this last season when she openly said she uses her stove to store shoes, quoting Carrie Bradshaw. I thin she even quoted Samantha in her talking head interview when making a sexual reference.

She wrote a novel which was apparently based on her own experiences as a single girl, now she's dating a younger guy, doing drugs and puking up. Then there's the oh-so-spontaneous bike ride through Manhattan - which could've been easily been a SATC scene.

So is anyone else still buying this?

Carole's whole shtick this year seems fake, meet a guy on camera at LuAnn's then conveniently dating him, As you said she's like a wannabe Carrie Bradshaw, from the writing to the being "just so New York".

LuAnn does seem to being going a bit OTT on twitter though, I mean I get there is drama but she was non-stop tweeting last night about Carole.

Hoping to god Sonja can just produce something one time to get the gorilla that is Heather off her back. Sonja and Ramona's issue at the cocktail party was so New York housewives, this group are one of the more petty franchises when it comes to who says hello first and who invited who to things.

Yup its every NY single woman cliche and its wearing thin. I'm actually waiting for her to announce she's converting to Judaism because shes in love with her divorce lawyer.

No one is buying this. I've looked at the comments in the NYC Housewives Facebook and everyone is commenting about how fake Carole's storyline is this season.

I'm missing Beverly Hills already! I can't wait for next season. Eileen has signed on (Vince confirmed it), and so has LisaV, LisaR, and Kyle (they're going to the NBC Upfronts). Kim, Brandi & Yolanda's places seem up in the air at the minute.

I can't believe Melbourne is coming to an end. We just have the reunion left! It's a little odd there has been no preview for it though. This has been a great season. None of them hold back. Pettifleur was a great addition! I wasn't so keen on Gamble.

RHOCheshire got renewed for a second season! It's airing later this year and everyone is coming back. I wish they had ditched Ampika and Dawn. I like Dawn, but she's so miserable all the time.

I'm loving RHONY! Bethenny has breathed life back into the show. I think her coming back made the others step it up a notch because the drama kicked off at the start, for once. Dorinda is hilarious. I love her analysis on Sonja. I'm liking Sonja more this season, she seems more together - although that could be about to change. Ramona is great, her situation seems to have brought her back down to reality. I'm enjoying Luann, she's went crazy on Twitter though and needs to reign it in. Heather's ok. I like her and Bethenny's dynamic. Has she had a solo scene yet? I didn't want Kristen coming back after last season but I'm starting to warm to her. Carole..."I can't, I can't, I CAN'T" (Ramona Voice). Seriously, she thinks she's so cool but I just get embarrassed for her. She's so irrelevant on this show it's unreal, I can't believe she's trying to accuse Luann of having a ghost writer on Twitter. She beat that storyline to death last season. If it weren't for her old pal Andy she'd have been booted after one season.

Tamra revealed the OC cast is her, Vicki, Heather, Shannon, and the new Hamilton girl. Lizzie got demoted, which isn't surprising. I can't wait for the trailer. Although, Lizzie said it takes a long time for any drama to happen. *Yawn*. I hope we don't have to wait until episode 15/16 for any drama.

Re: RHOBH - I so glad to hear who has signed on, and that Eileen and LisaR are back, because I loved this both in this season. Kim I'm now blah at this point and I feel she needs to just get herself together. Yolanda I really liked this time round but with her illness, perhaps she doesn't want to commit to anything full on. Brandi needs to stay because they need an antagonistic bitch on the show, and she does bring that and more so.

I'm actually watching season 4 of RHOBH on ITVBe (I've not seen it before) and it's dire. Like really really bad. Thank god for season 5 which way redeemed itself.

I can't comment on the other franchises as I don't watch them. I did watch RHONY until they ditched Alex and Jill, then I was like bye Felicia! LOL

Stassi has definitely left VP - thankfully. Think I read that Kristen hasn't though!!!!

http://www.realitytea.com/2015/05/08...ing-boyfriend/

Rhony has been great!

I laughed out loud at Bethannys acid comment- the only other housewife who has made me do that is Brandi.

Ramona has definitely become my favourite ny housewife.

Luann I liked last season, but from her Twitter page I'm not feeling her. She seems to be overreacting to the carole thing - probably because she wants a solid storyline and not to be demoted again.

Carole I don't like but I love the shade she issued on wwhl.

I'm team Heather and looking forward to her and Bethanny clashing.

NY was great once again, Sonja is just delusional BUT she does bring it and she is interesting to watch yes annoying but least she has this loopy storyline lol. Carole Im sorry but I'm not buying this romance, alot of people are saying its fake and i think i agree it just seems to perfect if that makes sense. She is best friends with Andy so maybe he helped her get a storlyine Ramona has always been my faveNY HW and i just love her even more this season she really has done a 180. Cant wait to see her have fun

Ratings seem to be dipping

Hmmm I think Carole's relationship is pretty genuine.

I think the show is just making the fact she's dating a younger man into a bigger thing than it really is. I mean they way some in the show and the fans are going on you'd think she was dating a guy who's just come out of short trousers not a professional who is just about to hit 30.

So, I am liking the Atlanta Reunion- but seriously 3 parts?! Usually I'm all about an epic Atlanta reunion, but this season really hasn’t warranted it at all. And isn’t this Season 7, half of what they get all riled up over was last seasons antics.

Nene really does have the worst attitude. Her “Its all my fault, as per usual” thing is really grating. I had thought this might be her last season, but I'm not so sure now. I think she will be back, Nene likes to play the big I Am, and turning up again next season as if she’s doing everyone a favour. I still feel she's checked out though. But as long as Bravo are willing to pay her $$$ for not very much I think she will stick around. Its her attitude for me. I miss Nene of old who was actually fun to watch and was utterly hilarious in an OMG way.
I did enjoy Kandi at the reunion though, she read Nene good. And made some very valid points. Its kind of a shame to see her and Phaedra seemingly at odds though. They seemed to have a genuine friendship and its all seems to have soured over a lot of miscommunication and misunderstandings.

Can I just mention Cynthia's hair?! Wow. What is she thinking? Cynthia usually really nails it with her hair. I'm feeling Claudias little bob though. Its cute.

RHONY has been brilliant. I’ve said it before, and I still cant quite believe it, but Bethenny coming back has done wonders for the show. She’s really exactly what the show needed. I kind of agree with her on the birthday thing, why invite people you don’t know? I'm anticipating Bethenny v Heather. And it seems like its going to kick off with Kristen aswell. I loved her face when she was in the “business” meeting of Sonja’s- and that “acid“ comment. Brilliant! I feel a bit for Sonja though- she's trying to keep up appearances, but I'm sure her young, gorgeous toy boy is putting a smile on her face!

Talking of toy boys- Carole. I actually quite like Carole, I mean yeah, its all feeling a bit “Sex and the City” to me aswell. But I don’t mind it. Whether she's seeing him or not, I don’t really see the big deal. Lu has been blowing up twitter with it though, and it is all much ado about nothing really, but I'm loving Lu Ann so far this season. Ramona aswell, she's been brilliant so far. She's a different person. I'm glad she came back and put the Mario stuff out there as I cant quite imagine NY without her. Dorinda I like- she's a bit off kilter, but I like her. Not at all sold on her boyfriend though. Her daughter too is a bit much, but maybe she plays it up for the cameras.

I’m so enjoying this season though and I think its only going to get better. NY has a great energy right now.

I haven’t had a chance to properly catch up with Melbourne yet, but I will. Also, really surprised Cheshire got another season. It wasn’t really for me, though it deff got better as it went along. I might give season 2 a go when it starts.

Not sure if its been mentioned but Married to Medicine is back soon - June 7th I think it is. I cant wait, I love the show. Looks like Mariah is out, or demoted at least. There seems to have been some behind the scenes dramas going on. And there’s meant to be major drama between Quad and Lisa this season. Sounds good! Bravo have released a trailer, but I cant find it on YouTube anywhere- I really want a peek though.

This trolly-dolly apparently "saved" Kelsey from Camille

RHOC premieres June 8th, trailer supposedly coming out tomorrow, though Bravo aired a promo last night and it does look good!

Kim Z confirmed that she's never returning to RHOA.

I just caught the OC promo. It looks like they were filming when Vicki was informed of her Mother's death. Very sad moment for the cameras to be present for.
I'm really looking forward to the OC. Hopefully it's as good as it has been for the last couple of years. Also caught a quick glimpse of Jeana. Yay.
The Melbourne Reunion was hilarious. That Alex guy with the glasseson his head is totally annoying though. Gina is so catty, but I just love her.

Omg just watched the OC advert poor Vicki!! she has always been my favourite and she's really been through SO much more than any other HW in her 10 years. I hope there's some happiness for her this season as her son in law is an absolute d*** and things with brooks aren't going well.... Long may she reign!! Doesn't look like she'll get on with the new girl though... With the new HW's husband's drug addiction, vicki's loss and Shannon just being as amazing as she was last season, this series should be AMAZING! Roll on June!!!

I am soo looking forward to this. Yes, I know my life is sad

I didn't buy a single moment of Nene's ''breakthrough''. It was one of the most manipulative moves I've seen on this show. She knew a repeat of Dr Jeff's therapy session was coming, so she changed tactics. Turn on the waterworks, show some sort of insecurity or vulnerability, shocking everyone, forcing them to back off.

Not only did it get her off the hook with the group, but it also meant she could get her ego stroked as they all gathered around her, telling her how brave and strong she was for sharing her story.

What was interesting was how the women reacted. Kandi had the most genuine reaction of them all. Kandi and Nene have never been close so she wasn't running to her side to comfort her. And she knew getting dragged up to do so before Nene's walkout would be wrong and disingenuous. Cynthia, however, I think saw the opportunity to get back in with Nene. Chasing after Nene equates to boosting her ego. For Cynthia, this means her chances of returning next season are higher now too. It means she'll have a ''making up'' storyline next season.

Nene pretty much said in this episode that the other women don't get as much ''negativity'' directed towards them because they're open about their insecurities, or in her words, are ''victims''. That's exactly when she shared her mother story. That story was her defence - and it worked.

It was the worst piece of acting I've seen on RHOA. Even worse than Sheree and her stage performance lol

I've been over Nene for about 3 season's now. Totally agree with what folk are saying about her "performance" and that is exactly what it was. Remember those times when Kenya was trying to discuss her mother leaving her as a child and not wanting any contact with her as an adult? Recall Nene sitting there, rolling her eyes at her with ZERO sympathy. Sorry girls, you've all been played (apart from Kandi who can see through Nene like she's been bathing in window cleaner). And was this the most miserable season of any housewives shows ever? Even the reunion felt like it was staged or concocted with Nene's amateur dramatics. Sorry, but I'm done with this show unless they have a dramatic shake up.

How has NY turned it around SO much?! I am LOVING this season! Drama and laughs galore once again! Sonja is such a mess but I can't help but find her funny. She and Ramona heading to that club looked SO drunk! I actually find myself liking all 8 of the HWs, even Kristen is starting to pipe up more now too. I hope the ratings show how far the show has come.

OC trailer - that Meghan isn't afraid to speak her mind is she?! - Looks like Tamra hasn't learnt from last season and is still being the stirring witch she's always been. Shannon and the headstone -wtf?! She's nuts but I still love her. Glad to see old faces back for this season - should be good!!

So Kenya's second (or is it third... counting African prince number 1?) tv boyfriend turns out to be fake.

Why did Bravo cast him for Millionaire Matchmaker, did he lie about his situation, or was he not engaged when the show was made?

Dorinda is totally getting to the bottom of these women like a silent assassin. "Well John John's dead so thats difficult" LMAO

WTF was Carole wearing, she's become a damn joke. Kristen only pipes up if Heather is there, she's more of a lapdog than Cynthia ever was to Nene.

Ramona is great this year, so fresh and love her attitude. I like single Ramona, hopefully she doesn't do some cliché 20-something guy like the rest of this cast.

Millionaire Matchmaker was filmed last September.

According to the wife, they met in December and married in April.

It seems after the show filmed this guy and Kenya went on a couple of dates and then went their separate ways. He then got on with his life, while Kenya (after seeing the ratings for the show) created a fantasy that they were madly in love and getting married.

Kim has been charged then, oh dear...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...lls-Hotel.html

It never rains but it pours for Kenya. In her battle with Aunt Viv over "Life Twirls On" she's been found guilty by SAG of forging signatures and time sheets and ordered to pay up.

Criminal charges may also have been filed.
