Bravo's The Real Housewives of....

[Eric83]

Both Kim And Nene averaged 1.5 million viewers. The difference wasn't that big.

[Chris B]

Bethenny averaged 1.8 for the season, Kim 1.6 and Nene 1.4 prior to the wedding episode, which boosted it to 1.5. When you look at the fact that Tamra had similar ratings to Nene's spin-off, I do think that is odd. With the power of RHOA Nene should've been pulling in over 2 million per episode.

[Eric83]

I just dont see a couple thousand difference as that big of a deal. Bethenny's show had RHONY as a lead-in didnt it?

Anywho I feel like most prefer to watch the women as a group than individually. I never really watch the spinoffs. I think Phaedra has one coming up and it will bomb similarly to Kandi's show. Caroline's show won't do well either.

Bethany and Kim did better than nene and Tamra because they offered something different from the housewives shows. Both Tamra and nenes wedding specials basically felt like a continuation of their season. Not so for Bethany and Kim.

I agree with an earlier comment that NeNe's talking heads in IDON were getting to be too much. WAY too many silly faces. I don't think I laughed once.

Listen, I love me some NeNe Leakes. But I also know that her over-the-top personality is basically schtick. It will eventually grow old and wear thin. I used to laugh my ass off with her, all through season 4 and when she was on Celebrity Apprentice. But this whole "I'm rich" hoopla is making her head swell. I hope she comes back down to planet Earth for season 6 and gets into shouting matches again. She doesn't have to regress and be a loudmouth borderline-bully, but at least don't act like she's better than everyone else.

A lot of Bravo shows are currently in a slump. Watch What Happens Live never reaches the 1 million mark anymore, not even on Sundays. Hopefully ATL and Beverly Hills will liven things up.

This. I'm not gonna lie, I'm mostly hating because Nene is being a hater right now. It's just so annoying seeing her act like she's the queen of the world and then she treats her "friends" a certain way, but if they do the same there is a problem. She is NOT more special than anybody else. Just because of her success doesn't mean they have to bow down to her in order to be her friend. I prefer Hater Nene though, so I am looking forward to this season. I hope these girls drive her ass nuts lol.

Where can I get the John Rich "Lea Black" song? ITunes?

Lisa wins the first half of the episode for sure- "Who has a wedding on a THURSDAY anyway?" No doubt! Joanna is batsh!t crazy! Yowzas!

This whole Adriana/Lea feud is old- glad they seem to be dropping it.

Didn't miss Marysol one bit this week.

Looking forward to Alexia vs Lisa on Sunday!!!

[Chris B]

Joanna vs Lisa? Alexia vs Lisa? I need to catch up it seems!

[Gray Bunny]

LOL I did! The venue was *much* cheaper than doing it on a Friday or Saturday

Pics of the RHOM reunion are here. Alexia, Joanna, Marysol, and even crow-faced Flea look gorgeous. Lisa looks basic, wearing her usual strapless dress, and my boo, Adriana . . . A tragedy.

[Chris B]

I think Alexia and Joanna look terrible. Marysol looks flawless, as do Lea and Adriana. Lisa has no personal style so her look doesn't surprise me. She never looks bad, just basic. Marysol's hair is also perfect. She looks so much better than her season 3 talking heads.

I was thinking…If you guys were on a housewives show, what would your tagline be? I narrowed mine down to two...

"There are a lot of people who don't like me, but odds are I didn't like them first"

OR

"I've climbed my way to the top, and none of these haters are going to bring me back down."

[Cheap21]

Joanna's hair is tragic but man Marysol is bringing it! Her stylist deserved a good bonus for that.

Lisa needs to back off. I don't think she needs to always play peace maker. Joanna was a bit too turned up though and she needed to calm down. I loved their friendship so its sad seeing them break up and in such a trivial way as well. Joanna owed her an apology and Im glad she gave it. Really glad the promos made it seem worse than it would actually be, but Im not too optimistic after seeing next week's preview

People keep coming at Lea about having work done? Maybe I might be blind but she doesn't look like she's done anything to her face. LMAO when she said this

KARENT! Was not expecting her. She actually got to speak this time. Oh how I missed her.

Other franchises have fruits. These bitches have MONEY!

Its 2013. Lots of people have weddings on weekdays now. Its way too expensive on the weekends especially if you don't book far I advance (a lot of venues are reserved months or even well over a year ahead of time). Thursday wedding is cheaper and less likely to be booked.

IA on the feud. I cant believe we are still talking about it.
