That's one of the things I dislike about this show. They keep dredging up the same old crap. Are they really that uninteresting with nothing going on in their lives?

I think they have emotions based on years of interactions, and that lends depth to their relationships. Watching the first season this week really kind of drove that home. I don't think they are fighting the same fights though. I think it's more about feelings, and levels of trust or lack of trust. We aren't in BH territory with the whole "Lisa is a manipulator" crap over and over and over again. Also, lots of their issues take place in real (not filmed) life, and we've seen that on twitter, and in other media, so, for example, I think the Carole/Lulu conflict is quite recent, and based on "real" things. With Bethenny, it's more complete lack of trust in a few cast members because of past/present things. With Lulu it's a "how the mighty have fallen" story, and I love underdogs so I can't help but root for her even if I would never trust her in real life. Sonja is our little Grey Gardens delusional "young forever straw that stirs the drink" nonsense who was finally called on her shit in a no-nonsense way. Heather really tried, but she got much too emotional, and said most of it to others, not to Sonja. Ramona? Who the hell knows with her? Obviously a woman who absolutely doesn't want to age, and is fighting it with everything she's got, including her new boobs which really do her no favors. She's like a 1950's woman in attitudes, trying to cope in a new millennium, and I think completely embarrassed by her tabloid marriage dissolve. The ONLY time I miss Jill is wondering just how many knives and it what tender places she would stick them about Ramona's divorce/humiliation. Dorinda is just a sad drunk. I have issues with drunks, so I'm honestly not enjoying this side of her. Carole needs to drop the "Carrie Bradshaw" act, but still, there is something I like about her. I loved that she realizes that she won't have long with this man she loves, because of kids. That's some REAL right there. Jules is "Nanny Diaries" come to life, but there is something underneath that shallow, pretentious, uneducated facade that does interest me. Maybe it's her admission that she has (not had) an eating disorder, and maybe it's the kind of cute relationship with her husband, for example, when she shushed him so she could eavesdrop. I think she actually has potential as a "wife" and doesn't give off the creepy-marriage vibes of the equally brain dead Kristen. I just think it's a really good mix this year. |

Alls I know is if Lu had said even one little iota of what Bethenny said to her to Carole, Carole would have to be medicated from all of the spasms she'd be having. But it's okay when Beth does it? |

Luann could have walked away, but she dove right in by making her ridiculous comments about Sonja. ON top of that, though, I think something underlying it all that wasn't discussed (so far) is that Carole is uncomfortable with Luann there and B knows that. So maybe it's a bit of "the enemy of my friend is my target" going on. Like B is proving that Dorinda should not have invited Luann AND Carole. Sort of a "and it wasn't even Carole who went in with her" ... I thought Luann was was off base going after Dorinda with her "you're the hostess, you should have protected me" because as I said, Luann could have walked away. But she wants screen time, too. So many undercurrents. |

Carole needs to grow the fuck up. She was all tough in her talking head last year about Luann and her niece with the "fuckem" attitude if they didn't like her dating Adam. The talk Luann had with her wasn't bad; Carole was the one who was dismissive to Luann and Luann was right back dismissive to Carole with the, "you've never had children so you wouldn't know" comment. Carole being uncomfortable with Luann can take a seat. She has hurled tons of vituperative crap at Luann. Just as much if not more than Luann has said to her. This was after Carole's whole first season of going after Luann. She has a history of being snide and nasty too. Get over yourself Carole. So if Bethenny is sticking up for Carole? Then she needs to sit down too. Mariah I like this group better than everyone too. But Bethenny needs to STFU. She has immunity way too much, and it doesn't make for a level playing field. There have been too many instances where the others, out of either fear of getting on Andy's bad side or bc of the editors editing it out bc of her contract, where she doesn't get shit thrown back in her face. We know that in any normal HW situation that her divorce, her dating and her general meanness would all be fair game for all of them to hurl at her like apes throwing shit. |

Ramona didn't talk about her divorce either, and Luann was often drunk and had an open marriage, slept around, had extremely unladylike behavior (grabbing that guys junk, etc) but it never came up on the show. I do think Ramona and Jill leaked some of it to the tabloids, but the other wives and show left it completely alone until the pirate and butt sex. Wait, I just remembered! I do think Carole was the first to bring up Luann's picking up guys and bringing them back to the "VACATION" house. Was the pirate the butt sex? Also the cameras caught her lying to Jacques, so Bravo thought that was too good to waste and had Carole do the set up? I really don't think Bethenny is hands off. She's just been around this block and isn't going to mention anyone she's seeing on camera, let alone film with them. She knows nothing good comes from that. Sonja just flat out went against Bethenny with that shady Peter than even Ramona dumped because he's such an opportunist, and became the face of "Tipsy Girl." Luann continues with the "she's copying my hair" and "I named Skinny Girl" stuff, so she certainly doesn't seem afraid of Bethenny. I think it would be a guaranteed contract raise if someone could go toe to toe with her and hold their own. I wonder if that is what Luann's trying here, or just to have conflict so she will get airtime, and thus paid. At least we had a John-free episode, thank you, it's about damn time. He had more film time than Sonja this season. |

Wow, Bethenny and Carole are such charming house guests. Was it a contest to see how much avocado toast they could fit into their mouths while speaking? Ugh. This show is awful. Bethenny and Carile couldn't be any less interesting. Or more immature. Edited by andme, Jun 8 2016, 11:34 PM.

Who would have thought that Sonja would be the most sane person on the show? |

Yeah, Sonja was like a breath of fresh air when she came on the screen. Lol. Nice care package, mom. She wanted to put open bags of food in there? Can't she end one of those many interns to the store? Thank goodness for Sonja and Lu. Everyone else's storyline revolves around getting Bethenny's approval. Guess they've got to pay the bills. I'm guessing Lu and Sonja will be out after this season since they didn't kiss Bethenny's ring. Wasn't it the crime of the century when Jill threatened to not film with Bethenny? Guess the rules have changed. Edited by andme, Jun 9 2016, 07:18 AM.

And even the preview shows the witches coven plotting how to keep Lu and Sonja out of the trip to Mexico. Oh, that will be a fun trip. Maybe its to Tulum which appears to be very in now. Honestly I didn't think Ramona could be that much of a kiss ass. The other afternoon she did a live Facebook on her extensions with her hairdresser. The extensions are for sale! Its a business opportunity. So now she is stuck with them all season and they look so dreadful. |

Sonja seemed mentally off packing that box for her daughter, and how sad that her daughter had to ask her to send something because all the other girls got care packages from home. She did seem drunk at the end there when she stormed out, but "word on the street is" she went cold turkey and stopped drinking at all. Ratings are up, we'll see if they stay up. I'm enjoying the hell out of this season. I don't have to like any of them, they are acting like fools for my entertainment and it's nuts, and revealing, and popcorn time for me. Jules really doesn't want to be around those kids without a nanny doing most of the work does she? I don't have a good feeling about this guy Luann is engaged too, he seems like a RH junkie. I hope he's sincere but Luann is getting sloppy 3rds here at best. Oh and I think saying a woman has to get laid is as bad as saying a woman sleeps with everyone. I wish Luann had just said, "So what? It's not your business what I do. I enjoy men and adore sex, I squirt you know! That means powerful orgasms every time. When was the last time you had one?" Ramona is off the rails as usual, she's like one of those super bouncy balls ricocheting off anything in her way and leaving bruises. Why do these women forgive her so easily, because she's insane and says "sorry!" ?? |

What ratings are up, or as Carole Tweets, higher than they've been in five years. http://allthingsrh.com/rhony-ratings/ |

2016 isn't on that list that I can see. I know I read that last week's was the highest since season 5. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2016/06/06/cable-live-7-ratings-may-16-22-2016/ 150% up. I suck at finding ratings though. ETA found this one. It's easier to read. http://bravowhore.com/post/142807992929/rhonys08 Posted Image Here's season 6.

That site has all the seasons except 1 & 2 up in this easy to read format. Actually for all of the Bravo shows. BH has higher ratings, but I have a feeling they will drop off next year unless they massively shake up this cast. They are all so fake and studied, there isn't any life there. Carole either tweeted incorrectly or she's just wrong. I think it was Andy who said "highest ratings since season 5. Edited by Mariah, Jun 9 2016, 10:16 AM.
