I've got visitors so am time strapped summing up with NJ and NY this week.

All I can say is what the hell is Melissa on that the whole "blast from the past" was a set up by Tre? Even after watching it her blog is full of how awful Tre is. Excuse me? It looks like a Kim G (or is it D?) set it up. As for Caroline and Jaq, leave please, you're bitter and childish in that order. Way to go to greet your sons' possible future wife, Caroline. Did she even say "hello" to her or have the editing scissors got too big. As for Rick, is every guy in NJ a crude, misogynist pig? He joins the Joes down in the gutter, with now only Chris Laurito being anyone I would speak to. Ugh! (The cameo Skype from Ashley(ee) was good though). Those tats were nice and large, enough to give Jac a heart attack.

As for NY, totally back in Sonia's team. Aviva is a spoilt brat. Her behaviour in St Barts was atrocious and yeah for Sonia for saying she didn't accept any apology and wouldn't be forgiving her.
Heather is my new bestie. Loved the way she and Carole are fun, and also how she spoke to Aviva and told her to move on. I think the only thing Aviva's interested in is Aviva. She has the most gruesome father ever and dares question other's morals?
So thumbs up for Heather, Carole and Sonia this week, with an OK for Ramona, a get off my screen for Aviva and a "why? just why?" for Luann. Starting the IVF route, at 47. Are you kidding me. Are you that frantic to hook Jacques? Pathetic.

Apparantly some of Sonia and Ramona's behaviour in St Barts had to be censored so it really must have been bad if pixillating it wasn't enough.

Sorry, I could have written an essay but Bumblesquat has done an excellent job of summing NJ up.

Did anyone else catch the season premier of Real housewives of Miami season 2?
I did kimkam! Ive been meaning to post my thoughts on last weeks opening ep. Ive been so busy this week Ive yet to catch up with NJ and NY, but thats on tomorrows "to do"

But back to Miami......I actually enjoyed the opener. I think it was mentioned before on here, but theres a good mix of women and they all have different careers, well except for the one that is married to the "boob god" and shops all day! but hey, nice work if you can get it. Theres a Dr, a lawyer, a model so its deffo varied!

The new ladies seem interesting, I liked Ana (the lawyer) though I can see drama with her and her ex on the horizon with their business, etc. Karent (the dentist) not sure what to make of her yet, her man seems to have some sort of history with Ana and you can already see the tension starting there. Joanna (the model) well, shes gorgeous. I kinda loved her diva-ish tantrum at the photo shoot when she found out she wasnt going to be on the cover Liked her style, but I think shes going to be a HUGE drama starter. Her sister is also gorgeous, but what the deal with her and Joanna's boyf? I dont see that ending well at all. He looks like a total player though. And finally, Lisa (married to the self called "boob god") she just seems to shop all day and work out with her maid lol Whom she and her hubby are giving a total body makeover to! Love it, only in Miami!

And then theres the ladies from season 1. Lea, looking much better this year I thought, shes bought a new house and wants to tear it down and start again, as you do! Shes neighbours with Lisa, and to say she wasnt excatly thrilled was an understatement! I dont think Lea looked at her once at that event they attended, and then more or less ignored her! Lea wanted "fabulous" neighbours, and I dont think Lisa quite cuts it with Lea! They should be fun.

Adriana, I loved her last season. She will bring the drama I have no doubt. Her man wants her to move onto a yacht and her face when he took her to see it was priceless! It was a wreck, but I think when its finished it could look spectacular. Adriana has 2 conditions, she will only move if there is a walk in closet, and a place for her baby grand!

Marysol is back also, newly single, she and her hubby have split up. I cant say Im surprised though, I thought that was more of a "green card" wedding if Im honest! The real star of the show though was Mama Elsa. This woman scares and fascinates me at the same time. Shes crazy, but fabulously so! Her dog went missing, only to be found in the closet days later, I SO much when she told Marysol that he "took a xanax and went to the closet" Shes brilliant! Oh and for a second there I thought she was rummaging around in a box of kitty litter, but no, it turns out its an "energy sand" or something It was brilliant anyway and she totally stole the show!

All in all, a good show I thought, lots of introducing the new ladies but thats to be expected. From the preview it looks like the drama will start to ramp up soon!

Oh, and I just wanted to say its great to see all the others posting on here aswell, its so great to read what people make of the other franchises/seasons and where they are at. For everyone watching The OC season 7, you havent seen anything yet! This season really kicks into gear and doesnt stop!

RHOOC.

My most favourite character in the series has been the long suffering Donn.

He who raised Vicki's kids and put up with her coldness through the years. Then was dumped by her due to her affair with the very creepy Brooks, shudder. She did though allow the long suffering Donn to remain in the marital home as she needed his pay cheque, so not quite as successful as I thought she was. I imagine her set up is MLM and she is the top of a pyramid.

Anyway, I thought I'd see how my favourite decent guy was faring and I was very disappointed. Apparently, he's having sex openly with his new partner at a swingers club. Same partner each time, so that's ok then.

Good solid honest Donn. My judgement must be way off kilter.
http://www.radaronline.com/exclusive...-don-gulvalson

I did like Donn as the way the show was edited he did seem to be repeating himself nearly begging Vicki to come home and relax from work

However I have heard that he was having an affair with someone for 20 or so years . The amount might not be exact but it was for length of the marriage .
Brooks is too cheesy it's like he has been placed there to be the ideal guy for Vicki even Tamara is noticing something is just too perfect

Heather with the champers bowling made me chuckle . That girl Sarah was a bit nuts and I think both Gretchen and Vicki handled that as well as they could of .

Tamara for the last few seasons has really bugged me always felt like someone I want to slap but this season wow what a change ! Maybe Simon was the reason she was such a bitch

The quality isn't excellent but you get a flavour of what the new season will be like. I'm really excited about this.

Not sure as I watch it at US pace, but it's usually ITV2, Bio or Living.
Perhaps someone who watches it on freeview could let you know. I'm not sure they've started the current season on UK TV yet, I thought it was just OC,

In response to your spoilered question yes that is coming up on OC and Vicki does not react well

Beverly Hills and Atlanta are both coming back in the same week! Atlantas on Sunday the 4th of November and Beverly Hills the 5th. The preview of RHOBH looks good though although it is kind of sad to see what reality tv does to a group of friends (Or thats how it started in Season 1) but I'm not complaining

Poor Pam though

Ooo, hi Kimkam, that's an episode to watch out for then!

Have managed to watch a few this week - just seen the mud race episode.

BTW I really dislike Heather, she's superior and slimy and I actually find her quite difficult to watch.

I still find Tamra a stirrer but she's less mean than last yr, so far. Vicki is just odd and no longer entertaining and Alexis I can take or leave. Overall Gretchen is my favourite although none of them cover themselves in glory!

Watched BH reunion finally and am disappointed at how much flak Lisa got although it seems to be a consensus so they either don't get British humour or she does do the things they say I guess She's still my fave though and Adrienne I've liked but not trusted in the past and positively dislike now. Brandi I'm afraid I just don't get - she's low-rent and nasty.

I still like Kyle and think having Kim as a sister must be incredibly hard work. The alcohol admission also explains the weird intensity in their relationship where one is always covering for the other etc.

Taylor - jury's out - no doubt she had a mad and unhappy life with Russell and he sounds appalling but I think she's pretty unstable too so not a good combo.

Hope to see a bit more this w/e then back to work on Monday

Just caught up on New York.
What is up with Sonja? even the way she looks is deteriorating fast.. this court case seems to be taking its toll on her. It's sad because when she first joined she was fun and the only one with sense.

Aviva is sucking the life out of the show. Stop droning on woman! Tally already nailed it in her post when they said 'She has the most gruesome father ever and dares question other's morals?'
Luann is just ridiculous but i still love her and her countess class(less).
We didn't see an awful lot of Ramona except for at the start when her and Sonja went at Luann over the Aviva thing which was pointless since Lu did nothing really. (her face was priceless though)
Heather and Carol were awesome as always! Them going drinking was nice to see. Their fun didn't seem forced or anything it was all natural and the first time in ages we've seen any of them sit and a have a good time without moaning or arguing. Loved when Heather told Aviva it straight, someone had too.

Is it official Alexis is leaving OC? If so that's disappointing as I really started to like her, she had become my fave OC housewife.

Ok, so Im a bit late to post on NJ and NY this week, so I shall keep it brief. I think Bumblesquat did a fab recap of NJ!

All I can say is, thats it?! Thats why they all hate Tre so much, I dont get it. That was ALL Kim D. Shes a desperate wannabe if ever I saw one, shes so desperate to be "Housewife" and this was totally her audition piece. The worst thing is, I could totally see it working None of the other women want to film with Tre anymore, and apparently the producers are looking to get her a few "friends" on board for season 5.

Melissa, I dont even know what she is on. Has anyone read her blog on Bravo? shes hung Tre out to dry and accused her of setting the whole thing up, Its ridiculous, was she not watching the same ep?! Unless Tre does something totally off the scale this week, I dont get it.

Caroline was vile as usual, and the way she was with Albies new girlfriend? shes a miserable old witch. Im so glad its the finale cos I cant watch Caroline for much longer! Bring on the Reunion though, cos that Im so excited to see!

And to NY and quite honestly, Im back on "team Sonja" Aviva has turned into a complete lunatic, and her behaviour in St Barths was horrendous, theres no excuse for that. I LOVED Sonja telling her she had no intention of forgiving her, cant say I blamed her! I feel quite sorry for Sonja again, shes sort of losing the plot a bit and I think its sad. That scene with her and Ramona where she was talking about her ex and wanting to look sexy for him?! Oh Sonja, No! This is a guy who dumped you and cant even be civil to you for the sake of your daughter. She hasnt got a clue. Its as I said before, Sonja clearly used to live a very charmed life and now that she doesnt, she hasnt got a clue how to handle things.

Heather is amazing, officially love her. She and Carole are a fabulous addition to this show and I cheered when she told Aviva exactly how it is! And as for Lu, Oh Luann, IVF? really? I dont know what to say! I was really hoping Heather would call her out on the whole Tomas/St barths thing aswell. But, hey, theres still time and a reunion for that!

Is anyone watching Miami season 2? What do we think? Ive got ep 2 to catch up on, but I really quite liked the first ep. But I did a big post on it above so I wont dive in again lol

Big thanks to sootysoo for posting that link to BH Season 3. I cant wait to see it stat back. The best though is Season 5 of Atlanta starts then aswell!! Cant wait for that. My absolute fave of the franchise at the minute. Do we know when we will get a teaser for that? looking forward to it.

Heres a link to the official cast photo for season 5 Real Housewives of Atlanta season 5
No Kim though It says shes still an official housewife though, and I really hope thats true. Ive really grown to like Kim and I hope shes back for season 5. I know she was pregnant during filming so I hope its just that, and that shes still involved this season. Before season 4, and particularly her spin off, if Kim hadnt been on Atlanta I dont think Id have missed her- but I love watching her and Ive really warmed to her. Thankfully we still have fabulous Phaedra so we know she will be there, and Im looking forward to seeing the new girls. Im just glad they didnt bring back Marlo officially

Thank you for the spoiler!
One of my favourite episodes of OC this series, and Brianna is pure gold during the last couple of episodes and, more importantly the Reunion. I love Brianna. Years of trying to get away from Mommie Dearest and she's spectacular. Karma's a bitch, Vic.

Sorry Andrew, Alexis is officially out of OC. I dont mind apart from the truly hilarious television presenting it got a bit too uncomfortable with the bullying from Tamra and Gretchen. I think she's as phoney as hell, but she'll be happier (if one could ever be happy married to the dinosaur and grotesque Jim. UGH!)
Are Gretchen and Tamra still best buds? Has Gretchen ditched Slimey, is she going to? I know he's her slaveboy but that's still too good for him. Point a TV camera at him and Slimey will perform. He wasn't called the sixth HoWife for nothing.

When my visitors go home tomorrow I'm going to watch the first 2 episodes of Miami and see if it's better than Season 1, although from you guys' write ups it sounds as if it is.

I'm missing my trawl of the US blogs and "STOOPID HOUSEWIVES" which I love.
http://stoopidhousewives.com/

I'm really looking forward to Atlanta and I never thought I'd say that 2 seasons ago. It's all Phaedra and Nene's fault. They are television gold! I wonder how many dead bodies Phaedra has dispatched?

Wow, great NJ finale. I'm still Team Teresa. Apparently the person texting Jaqueline was a producer who has now been fired, Teresa had nothing to do with it. I just wish she was a bit more intelligent so she could properly defend herself and not get into these situations.

Also, after seeing Jacqueline bad mouthing Teresa on Twitter AGAIN, I tweeted her saying 'Why do you always talk about Teresa when she never bad mouths anyone on twitter?'. She then direct messaged me saying 'She talks about me to everyone'. She then blocked me! hahaha.

Poor gretchen. Slades using her as a ticket to vegas, i feel sorry for her because she seems lovely but i bet she cant sing live. Hes built her up like shes the greatest thing and now she will probably make a fool of herself in front of everybody. I cant believe she cant see that hes using her to fulfill his own dreams. Like when he was saying once youve performed with the pussycat dolls youre a pussycat doll forever. I imagine him in a sleazy bar telling old men his girlfriends a pussycat doll.

Why hasnt vicky noticed that shes been on tv slating donn and describing her perfect man and out of nowhere he suddenly appears! He knows what to say at the perfect time. Im sure he works for clintons cards! Hes unbelievable the soppy stuff he says and she laps it up! Doesnt she wonder what hes up to when hes back home?

She really overdoses on self importance at times - hiring a make up artist for goodness sake is on a par with hiring a nurse after her op and taking her make up artist friend along as an assistant when the went glamping. The thing is though I don't dislke Alexis as I think she is more daft than anything else and lacks confidence. I don't like Jim, but I think she is Ok, and the more the others gang up against her the more I like her. It is a shame that being in love is not making Tamra a nicer person, she is full of spite. If others picked on her the way she dishes it out then the tears would come, and come again and again.

NJ started on Bio last Monday so I have started watchng this. I hope I manage to work out who everyone is and how related to each other. This is series 3, and I recall from previous posts that this is the best, so can i assume the fact that I have not seen series 1 or 2 will not be a problem?

Vicki dispite saying life is short etc it's like the words are what are meant to be said but her face says something else ! I have heard it kicks off on reunion show against Brooks and not just from the Housewives !

Alexis and the make up artist I do like her but I think the make up lights are on but no ones home lol

Tamra well so far ok today .

Heather and her OH I am liking more and more even though clearly they are rich and yes sometimes certain things are showing the money it's not in your face unlike other housewives !

Looking forward to tomorrows show
