NYC

 

*CLIP...CLIP...CLIP...CLIP...you fool!" - Dorinda. That's the iconic line of the season. It's this season's "Be cool, don't be all, like uncool!"...Dorinda has another signature line that just spells trouble for any housewife in her path when she utters it: "You better back that sh*t up right now"...Sonja is not equipped to deal with Dorinda. Sonja needs to wave the white flag, never cross Dorinda again and get back to being amusing. 

 

Ramona was such an ass this episode. Carole did a nice thing by making sure Dorinda got a nice room and the first thing Ramona can do is complain about it. 

 

LuAnn made an ass of herself at the end of the episode by whining about her room. She expected a better room because she's married. What? Illogical.

 

Bethenny is full of crap about being cordial to Ramona. There's no reason for her to try lying about her contempt for Ramona - Bethenny can't pull that lie off. Why bother?

 

I can't with Tinsley crying about her life. The charges were dropped. She's 41. Time to get over it or get off TV. I hope she's a once and done this season. She's another dud. NYC needs to stop casting these wannabe young girls. NYC is more mature than that.

RHoNY:

Dorinda is the MVP of the franchise this year -- even though she is a relatively newbie, she's known most of these women a long time and is the real deal. She can read with the best of them, but she is also smart, analytical and empathetic. I love her friendship with Carole. My only concern is that she drinks a LOT. That wasn't a hangover she had in the Bronx -- Dorinda was SOTALLY TOBER a goner.

 

What is Sonja doing picking a fight with Dorinda (which she will NEVER win) and putting down Tinsley? It is such a bad look on her. She is either jealous (of T) or wants to impress Bethenny (by throwing Dorinda under the bus re: Tipsy Girl). I love Sonja, but she has contributed nothing this season. She is so sour. I worry producers will get rid of her.

 

Ramona is kind of winning me over? I can't believe I am saying this after the way she acted. And Luann took a misstep this episode. Her guy ain't a catch so she needs to rein in the 'I'm better than you cuz I'm married' attitude.

 

Bethenny screeching at Tinsley was COLD. Yes, Tinsley needs to be shaken out of her 2002 bubble. She needs a kicking new haircut, wardrobe and apartment. She also needs a backbone. But everybody has their moments of fear and regret. Bethenny is unable to empathise with anyone who has lost their way a little. It's like she is the only one allowed to have a vulnerable moment because of her bad childhood. To everybody else she screams "Get over it!" I do agree with @DaytimeFan that Tinsley is a dud, though. Her mother Dale would have been a more interesting choice. In any case, Tinsley is hooking up with the Sausage King of Chicago (or something) right now so she is set for the foreseeable future, and Bravo can cut her loose.

 

 

My best-dressed Potomac Reunion list (from best to worst):

 

1. Monique. Gorgeous.

2. Karen. Age-appropriate gown and beautiful colour on her.

3. Ashley. Too much skin but she can pull it off.

4. Gizelle. Meh. Generic HWs outfit.

5. Charisse. Trying yet again to be somebody she's not. Sit down, you are not Nicki Minaj.

6. Robyn. Robyn's grandma called, she wants her bedroom drapes back.

Dorinda seems to be an alcoholic...cant stop drinking...blacks out... and gets almost verbally violent.  I think the alcphol needs to stop neing peovided.

 

She's interesting enough when sober.

 

Tinsley is a dud.  They need an older and married woman with kids.  Jules was a better addition then Tinsley was...and she was too bohemian for the show (carole...jules was a real.bohemian )

I do not agree that Dorinda seems to be an alcoholic. The Housewives franchise is notorious for plying the housewives with alcohol whenever they film. Dorinda just happens to be loud when she's drunk. She doesn't seem dependent on it at all. Her life is far too functional for her to have an actual problem with alcohol.

Acrually...an alcoholic is one when they drink...they can't stop and they become vicious and black out.  If anything she's a functional alcoholic

 

And after naked wasted...Bravo should have stopped with the alcohol.

Alcohol plays a bigger role in some franchises than others. 

 

It's big in OC and NYC, not so much in NJ and ATL.

 

On the fence for BH (the whole Kim Richards factor).

I would have said BH during the first few seasons with Kim, Brandi and Taylor (anyone remember that scene when Taylor was in a suitcase??? hahaha).  Not so much these last few seasons.

    • Thanks for that. It was great to see her in an interview. She's very likable. Although it was somewhat confusing. What new soap is she talking about going on audition for in 1973. Was it The Young and the Restless? The editing around that part was weird and choppy. I felt like there was a chunk missing or something. And I'm not sure why she was saying she got colorectal cancer from HPV and said it's because she never got the HPV vaccine but then said she's never had anal sex. I'm not a doctor but that didn't seem to make any medical sense. I don't know. Maybe I'm tired. It just seemed like some of this interview didn't make sense. 
    • If it helps any, the last script cover from the Elman papers that I have is from episode #3,736 airdate November 15, 1977. Writers are the Hollands with Frank Salisbury.
    • B&B really does look incredible. The lighting and the polished sets have made a significant difference how visually appealing the show is now.
    • I found the problem with the Labine era was that the show lost some humour when the Labines came on and it could be dull. They also didn't seem to understand some of the characters. As others have said, it looks fantastic in comparison to the next regime but I just remember boredom being the primary response.
    • Something I didn't realize: Frank Ashmore, who played Monica's investigator Corrigan in 1981, was also Victor, the third guy in the cockpit, in Airplane!
    • Thanks, maybe I will skim through those episodes.  I have previously binged late 1985 through early 1987; April-June, August 1992 (I skipped Carlo Hesser murder trial), Jan-March 1995 and I began watching in 2006. I just struggle to stay consistent with routines especially binging routines haha 
    • I could've sworn we went over the Bobbie thing a while ago, and saw her introduced to Rick and Lesley as "Nurse Barbara" in very late '77? Or was that early '78? I know the clip is online. Jackie always credited Marland with creating her IIRC.
    • Thanks.  Loon Lake - very on the nose. With that "dad" outfit Bo looks even more like Cassie's father...
    • Luna parachutes herself into Llanview at the end of September 15th 1991.
    • That lengthy flashback does make me wonder if she threw out a lot, but I agree it may have been too easy an urban legend. Would these have been her very first episodes? I imagine you could feel the big difference when Bobbie arrived, alongside the Quartermaines filing in, the return of Heather, and Lesley/Rick/Monica/Alan heating up. It does remind me that there must have been some dud moments in the 60-minute format we just don't see because little of the period is available in full.  I wonder how much longer the Dantes lasted under Marland.  David Hamilton is so disgusting. I appreciate the show making him disgust as some shows when they have stories about older men or women manipulating teens aren't as honest.  I can't see this Rick being friends with him. Chris Robinson's Rick, on the other hand, I could believe.
