Confession:

I have never seen RHoNY...though I have loved you guys discussing it over the years for people who are novice at watching it.

THAT said...

THIS...

TOTALLY makes me want to watch it.

It is not only something I would do...it's something I might be doing TONIGHT. ph34r.png

I can't believe the way I've powered through RHONY S5, I'm already finished with Aviva's arrival in St. Barth's. It's insane how much a person can change. We saw hints of her [!@#$%^&*]-stirring and her self-centeredness when she screamed at Sonja for not going to her charity event when her 19 year old dog was dying. She even said Sonja could've sent somebody else with the dog to put it down, but I overlooked that. Once Aviva arrives in St. Barth's it was just 100% clear that she is one of the most evil and vile women to ever set foot on a Housewives series! Repeatedly demanding that everybody basically kiss her husbands feet and thank him for bringing her? Wondering why they didn't throw a party welcoming her there when they expected a disheveled, shell shocked woman thankful to survive the plane ride? Going OFF on Ramona and Sonja over absolutely nothing and revealing how she truly thought of them? Truly despicable.

After seeing her FIERCE catsuit in the season 6 promo I really wanted to see her ass, but this is making me hate her all over again. I'll never forget how everyone (including myself) assumed whatever the issue had to be Ramona & Sonja's fault as we watched promos. I have never been so shocked in my life. Even when this first aired her first blog was very cocky and sure of herself until she saw the massive viewer backlash, THEN she started changing her tune. And at the reunion her wobbly ass was playing contrite and apologetic and you could tell it KILLED HER to apologize when she saw nothing wrong.

Forget everything I've said in posts prior to this--the ONE and ONLY thing I need during season 6 are these women reading this bitch for fifth for 20 episodes. That's all I need. Dig into her ass and dig good. We know what a spoiled, phony, [!@#$%^&*]-stirring bitch she is and I don't want anybody getting punked out by her. And I hope somebody threw her leg in that promo.

Ohhhhhh man, Ramona dancing by herself at that party where she knew nobody! It's relatable yet nutso stuff like that which makes me love Ramona.

I think the phrase you are looking for is "love to hate"!

I do too, I think Aviva is endlessly watchable because she is deluded and incredibly, incredibly entitled. What a combination. It is like watching a sober, one-legged Lindsay Lohan in some ways. I don't think Ramona and Sonja were entirely blameless on St Barts (Sonja was a hot drunken mess). But Aviva was nuts. And now you make me want to rewatch Season 5 all over again (leaving out the first 4-5 episodes, though, because they were a little slow).

You know what was great after St Barts? When Aviva and Sonja went out to lunch, and Sonja told her to quit judging her and then told her she didn't need somebody like her in her life."I have enough friends." Sonja read her just perfectly. Oh, and that epic fight at brunch between Ramona and Aviva, when Aviva wore that fur-trim coat (your second gif).

Another amazing moment on St Barts: the last night when Ramona and Sonja are in the bathroom gossiping and blow-drying their hair and bodies with one blowdryer. There must be a gif of that somewhere.

All reasons why Season 5 worked for me. It took a while for the cast to gel but now I can't wait for them to return.

When Sonja's sober, she can be awesome and very on-point with her views and opinions. I did like her one talking head about how Aviva was pissed about them not throwing a party for her husband and Sonja basically stating that he just flew down with her, he didn't discover the Atom LOL.

What I'm not remembering was if she hated Sonja just as much as Ramona, or was Sonja mostly caught in the cross fire of her dislike of Ramona?

That was Sonja's finest hour...the way she dismissed Aviva, looked her square in the eye and said (and meant) that she didn't give a damn about her opinion and that she didn't need her in her life, as Aviva sputtered like a Pinto, was awe inspiring. Sonja, when sober, is razor sharp.

I loved Season 5 too and I think the cast really gelled. I'm excited for this season after the lacklustre one we've had with RHOBH.

LuAnn absolutely did NOT gel with this cast. Every storyline she had was obviously scripted. The Johnny Depp thing was more watchable, but I'll never forget when Cat from RHODC called her out on WWHL. Andy seemed mortified, but she basically said that LuAnn created that storyline because she had nothing else going on. We all knew she wasn't going to get pregnant and the feud with Ramona was a non-starter. I did enjoy seeing her as a fish out of water, but I definitely hope she develops interesting relationships with the new ladies.

    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
