Bravo's The Real Housewives of....

[JackPeyton]

Eh, I dont know. I think through the season she tried to maintain a freindship with Alexis, but Alexis was so jealous of Tamra and couldnt take Gretch not defending her to the death that it was doomed. I actually dont think either are to blame. I get Alexis' side of losing a friend to someone else, but I also wouldnt expect someone to defend me above and beyond everything else and ignore the truth - of course Alexis doesnt see that what heather says of her is true, so there is that. I dont think gretch should have done anything more than she did in efending Alexis tho. She told them all, Alexis included, that while yes Alexis appears this way once you get to know her you see there is more to her.

I think it is also clear that Gretch & Tamara & Heather are actual friends at this point. I thought G/T would be very fake, and while it started off clearly as them not wanting to just be nasty all season, i think once they were over their issues or able to put them behind them they were able to get along and bond. I also think Tamra was jealous of gretch as she was bound to Simon while gretch was young, wild an free to do what she wanted. Not having Simon and not having Vicki in her ear let her see a different side of Gretch, really they are so similar thats why they didnt get along.

Im not just saying this because i hate her, but if Nene or anyone assaulted a crew member they absolutely, 100% deserve to be fired.

It's always interesting to see some of the opinions...over at TWOP Alexis seems to have become a martyr for the ages.

[JackPeyton]

Dont they worship Vicki and wish death upon Gretchen there?

[Cat]

I did feel a teensy bit sorry for Alexis because they went all out for her at the Reunion.

Then I remembered that she put all this mess upon herself with her brainless boasting, so...

Didn't Ramona slap a producer during filming of Season 4 NYC? It never went to air because it was between her and a producer (crosses the reality line)... but she obvi wasn't fired.

[JackPeyton]

That is awful & its disgusting she wasn't fired immediately.

[Cheap21]

Love her or hate her, Ramona's crazy makes the show. Take her out and a good chunk of the drama and what keeps this thing entertaining is gone which would have equaled lower ratings and less money for Bravo. They werent gonna fire her when that happened. Its similar reasons why I wouldnt expect them to do the same with Nene bc she's the biggest personality on the show. Had that been Alex (NYC) or like Cynthia (ATL), they'd both likely leave bc both are expendable to their respective series, but Ramona and Nene? Bravo will dowhat it takes to keep them, slaps and all

Agreed. I think NJ's Teresa falls under that category too. Can you imagine the past 2 seasons without her? What the hell would Jacqueline, Caroline, Kathy or Melissa talk about? It'd be nothing but mindless Manzo children and Rosie!

[Cheap21]

heck in a fit of rage, she knocked Andy down! Her malice wasnt targeted towards him but she technically did get physical with him. IA that she is one of the hot heads, they want to keep. Nene, Teresa and Ramona are a reality producers dream as they give LOTS of material for the crew to work with and they also make the other people around them more interesting

[Eric83]

I just don't see Nene hitting a crew member unless he was trying to intervene in the Nene/Kandi fight.

If Nene and Marlo hadn't of went to South Africa it would have been the most boring trip in Housewives history.

[Cheap21]

It could be like the Teresa/Andy thing with Nene basically being like get off of me and let me get her. I can see that

Yawn! Thats how Im feeling about the current NYC one. It needed Ramona. Without Nene and Marlo, you are right in that it would have been a snoozefest

Speaking of big trips... the Beverly Hills ladies will be going to Paris in Season 3! There are a few other minor spoilers in this:

I'm trying to remember - where did they go in their Season 1 and Season 2? I know they went to Hawaii last year, but was that all? It seems like they should have the most lavish trips.

[Antoyne]

They went to Vegas in season 1 and stayed at Adriennes...I'm drawing a blank on any other whole cast trips from season 1. They also stayed at Camille's place in I think Aspen somewhere at the beginning of season 2.

[Delia]

They went to Hawaii last season. Kim missed like 10 flights but made it eventually.

LMAO! What a dumb drunk bitch
