Atlanta's premiere ratings are big: REAL HOUSEWIVES ATLANTA BRVO 8:00 PM 3.108 1.4 Not sure how that stacks against other premiere/finale/reunion ratings, but anything over 3 million nowadays is really good.

There is always the possibility that Lauri is back as a full-time housewife this season, which will bring more familiarity. Although her only ally last season seemed to be Gretchen, who is now gone.

OC news... Lydia will NOT be returning for the 9th season. With Alexis, Gretchen, and now Lydia out, we're only left with Vicki, Tamra, and Heather! http://www.eonline.com/news/477422/the-real-housewives-of-orange-county-shocker-lydia-mclaughlin-reveals-she-will-not-return-for-season-9

Once again, the transition between BH to Vanderpump was flawless!!!

Clip of Nene vs. Kenya.... Cynthia looks gorgeous (as always) in her talking heads (very end): http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/10/30/real-housewives-of-atlanta-season-6-premiere-clip/

Not sure how Bravo would feel about these comments from Marlo... http://www.christianpost.com/news/real-housewives-of-atlanta-news-marlo-hamton-talks-rumored-nene-leakes-fight-107547/

More details on the Miami reunion: http://www.eonline.com/news/474204/real-housewives-of-miami-explosive-reunion-joanna-krupa-blames-lisa-hochstein-s-fertility-struggles-on-alleged-partying If true, that's pretty low of Joanna. I'm Team Lisa for now, but I'll need to watch to see how it all plays out. Wow - you're right!!!

From that trailer, Joyce reminds me of a Karent/Adriana mix.

BH premiere party --- Kim/Kyle/Brandi are tight; Lisa all alone... http://www.eonline.com/news/473852/rhobh-premiere-party-brandi-glanville-and-kyle-richards-very-tight-lisa-vanderpump-kept-to-herself

Here's the link to the Miami drama. I'm sad to see Lisa and Joanna fight like this - I really enjoyed their scenes together. http://www.realitytea.com/2013/10/23/is-lisa-hochstein-suing-joanna-krupa-over-drama-at-the-real-housewives-of-miami-reunion/ Ana's tweet was really bitchy. Sounds like the reunion will be good!

YES! That makes me very happy Although I bet it's closer to March once BH or Atlanta wind down... dang, that's still half a year away! Do you think they'll do 3 series at a time (minus the 1-2 week overlap with a reunion).

Geez, Lauri's son has been arrested AGAIN for grand theft auto: http://www.tmz.com/2013/10/17/josh-waring-real-housewives-of-orange-county-grand-theft-auto-felony-arrest/ I'm reallllllly looking forward to NYC. I actually loved last season - the new ladies were a hit for me - and I miss my Ramona, Luann, and Sonja. I moved into my new house 11 months ago and I looked at the TV series that are set to record on my DVR. All RH series are set except NYC, which means NYC hasn't aired once (new episode) in 11 months... meanwhile Miami is on their second season of the year, and BH and Atlanta are now about to run twice before NYC even ran once. This season BETTER be amazing after all the work they're putting into it.

Three new housewives for NJ (rumored)... unfortunately this article tells us nothing about them: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/real-housewives-new-jersey-shake-649119?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+thr%2Fnews+(The+Hollywood+Reporter+-+Top+Stories)

Ohhh, tricky editing! How funny would that have been though?

Although LMAO at Phaedra calling the police on Kenya for asking Apollo if she can provide fellatio! Hahaha

Bravo's website has the extended trailer of Atlanta.... And all I can say is DAMN! Lots of fighting, even from those you wouldn't expect. Full of drama! Can't wait! Also, Phaedra needs to stop excusing her husband. He's never going to be faithful and she's only embarrassing herself

Yay - glad you're back!

Dang - Miami continues to tank in the ratings - a lost footage episode of NJ beat Adrianna's wedding episode: REAL HSWIVES OF NJ BRVO 9:00 PM 946 0.4 DINERS, DRIVE INS & DIVES FOOD 7:00 PM 1004 0.4 SPORTSCENTER AM L ESPN 1:00 PM 646 0.4 SPORTSCENTER AM L ESPN 10:00 AM 676 0.4 Real Housewives of Miami BRVO 10:01 PM 866 0.4 BTW - where is Cheap? This thread has been unusually quiet over the last two weeks.

I'm surprised they are still filming --- isn't Season 6 premiering in a few weeks??

Yikes - Lynne Curtin is broke and single: http://www.tmz.com/2013/10/13/lynne-curtin-frank-curtin-divorce-assets-debts/

Ken (BH) was attacked and extorted for $50K: http://thestir.cafemom.com/entertainment/162373/real_housewives_star_reportedly_attacked

Just watched Miami --- Marysol sure is getting a lot of airtime for only being a friend of the housewives! I don't get why they didn't just leave her as a housewife. Also, no Lea??

Yeah, and a 0.3 in 18-49. That's terrible -- Season 1 numbers Real Housewives of Miami BRVO 10:01 PM 653 0.3

The Season 3 premiere was really good - I have higher hopes for this season. They even made a jab at the 'Initiative' - joking that they would never ever mention that name again.

It seems like Miami just can't catch a break. Last season was definitely better than this season, but the ratings weren't there because they stuck it on a Thursday night. The two or three episodes they did air on Monday night before BH (or was it Atlanta?) rated so much higher... but then they put it back on Thursday where ratings went back down. I don't know why Bravo didn't permanently put them on Monday where the ratings were higher. Also, I think the only complaint the producers/Bravo heard last year from certain fans is there were too many supporting characters and housewives... and because the season was shorter than most other housewives shows, the viewers didn't get a chance to really know the housewives, their families, and their background. It truly was just party after party for the most part... So they tried to fix that this year, but like someone else said, they went too far on the spectrum and now viewers think there is too much family backstory, not enough parties/supporting characters/etc. So once they landed a primetime spot on Mondays after OC, they basically ruined it with a boring season. Maybe they'll finally get it right and all the stars will align for Season 4.... if they are renewed!
