Clearly Luann feels he could still get it.

Watching NYC S8 (which I’ve never seen in its entirety), and yes, now that’s a toxic season from the jump (the Luann vs. Carole/Bethenny situation, Bethenny’s relentless and gratuitous targeting of Jules, Dorinda raging at Ramona/Bethenny in defense of John, Ramona being Ramona times 10, the focus on Sonja’s issues, etc.).

 

It is horribly toxic, but also very good pace-wise. There were very few filler episodes. Luann made and saved that season, and I really liked Jules. Wish she'd been given another year.

 

Will never forget Bethenny screaming "YOU [!@#$%^&*] EVERYONE" at Luann in the Berkshires, and we cut to Luann's VT where she coolly says: "As I say in my song Chic C'est La Vie, 'The little things can take you down / So it's best to brush them off.' " 👏👏👏 Never change, Lu!

It’s definitely an entertaining toxicity (which I differentiate from S4, which I just found abrasive), but it’s a very heavy season so far. 
 

I loved how Luann stood up to Bethenny’s ridiculousness (“I’m SICK of the way that you live!”) in that scene. While Bethenny was raging, Luann seemed so unbothered.

Totally agree - it's an entertaining toxicity.  Season 4, especially the reunion, will always go down as the most toxic season of any franchise for me.  Kelly, Cindy and sometime Jill were just SO unlikeable and unbearable, especially in the way they treated and bullied Alex at the reunion. 

Real Housewives of Cheshire is getting a spin off! Real Housewives of Jersey starts filming next week: https://www.itv.com/news/channel/2020-08-03/jersey-sees-reality-tv-show-the-real-housewives-arrive-on-its-shores

 

Link says it premieres this year so hopefully it’s decent and helps with our winter HWs drought. I have no knowledge of the location so I just have to hope they picked some place fabulous.

Jersey is an island between Britain and France that, although a part of the British Isles, is a British Crown dependency for defence, but has it’s own distinct laws etc. 
 

It is known as something of a tax haven and doesn’t charge value added taxes on luxury goods. 
 

I think it’s a great choice for a spinoff. Look forward to it!

New Housewives show alert!!! The Real Housewives of Jersey debuts later this year

 

Not to be confused with New Jersey, this new series will be produced by the team that does Cheshire and will take place in the island of Jersey in the UK

 

 

Filming is reportedly set to get underway over the next week and The Real Housewives of Jersey is due to arrive on ITVBe later this year.

 

Islanders could soon be seeing their home, and some familiar local faces, on a well known TV show that is coming to Jersey.

 

Visit Jersey says it thinks the show's high profile could encourage younger people to visit the island.

 

With successful spin offs also filmed in New York, New Jersey, Beverly Hills and Atlanta, it has since arrived in the UK with The Real Housewives of Cheshire. Now the series, which is known for focusing on women with wealthy lifestyles, is arriving on local shores.

 

Filming is reportedly getting underway in the next week and The Real Housewives of Jersey is due to arrive on ITVBe later this year.

 

The reality show franchise The Real Housewives has been bringing drama to our screens since 2006, first showing the highs and lows of the lives of women in California with The Real Housewives of Orange County.

They keep locking down different towns/regions in the UK because Covid is surging again, as all the pubs have reopened. Also, not many masks around. Anyhoo, we will see how far RH of Jersey gets with filming. Maybe there are being more careful over there -- more retirees.

And there was soooo much bad acting going on during S4. Luann was also horrible at that reunion to be honest.
 

S5/S6 were better but nothing gelled until S7 when they got rid of Aviva (ugh, intolerable), realized they could no longer marginalize Luann, brought back Bethenny to light a match, and hired Dorinda.

I’ve noticed posts get lost in this thread at times. Maybe because it covers so much ground.

He could get it from me, too to be honest. Woof!!!

 

And thank you Re: Season 8. I don't remember there being filler and yes it was well paced.

And then from there, LuAnn went from powersuit to powersuit to powersuit the next few episodes like a Boss Bitca.

 

That was when I fell in love with her. Unbothered indeed.

Same. I've mentioned things in here and it gets lost for pages and then someone else mentions what I said 3 pages back and it's like 'wait what? that was 3 pages ago. lol.'

 

 

NY REUNION LOOKS ARE OUT!!! AND...TINSLEY WAS THERE!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Luann and Ramona. *chef’s kiss*

Yeah, LuAnn (of course!!!) and I love the Madonna-from-that-short-film-I-don't-know-the-name-to vibe that Sonja is giving off with that mask and she cut her hair. It is giving me the Bun look she had...hmmm Season 10...reunion which I feel was her best reunion I've seen ever. It was PERFECTION and deliciously mod.

Someone pointed out that they filmed at Oheka Castle on Long Island, which is where Taylor Swift filmed the “Blank Space” video.

Oooooooooo

I had been thinking a lot about seasons five and six of RHONY and I rewatched some of the episodes. It was so entertaining, and there was not the toxic energy of Bethenny 2.0 and Dorinda. Aviva's takedown of Ramona at tea was fantastic. The Heather/Ramona "fight" felt authentic and real since Heather refused to play by Housewives rules. There was a much lighter tone so that even Aviva's ridiculous antics didn't feel as terrible as the fights that happened in seasons seven and on. I also think these two seasons were the time that Sonja could have been stopped from becoming a caricature of herself. Unfortunately, she gave into it in season 7.

 

RHOP:I think the show is enjoyable, but I have one main problem. It's hard for me to fully get behind the show when there has been no accountability for Michael's actions. I know they need Ashley for the Ashley/Candiace feud, but it's hard for me to get engaged in anything Ashley-related when Michael will still appear on the show.

 

RHOBH: Just disgusting. Every year, it's the same complaint. Get rid of the mean girls, and every year Bravo brings them back.
