Bravo's The Real Housewives of....

[alwaysAMC]

Haha - I actually think I've seen areola in one of Porsha's confessional looks.

At the beginning of this episode, Kelli was wearing a strappy camisole top with what looked like cut-outs for the boobs to breathe. She was stuck behind a table, but I don't know what we would have seen had she sneezed. 

The entire cast have enviable figures for sure, but the pressure on some of those boob jobs must be painful.

Second of all...so that rumor about a new HW show was real???

WHOA!  I wasn't expecting a new housewives series!  That's exciting... 

Love seeing Ladies of London back!  Wonder if anyone from the original cast will be back.

Seems like they're retooling Shahs of Sunset and moving it to The Valley franchise, which I guess makes sense, given Shahs has been off the air for so long now.  I know MJ and Reza were filming the reboot.

Wife Swap, now that should be interesting too, but I bet this and Love Hotel are replacing any shot of UGT coming back.

[Taoboi]

Oh, yeah, there's been rumors for at least THREE new HW shows for a while. 

 

So far from what I can find...a total reboot with LoL. But I am sure that can change.

 

Le sigh. I can't believe they are letting The Valley grow into a franchise. Meanwhile, Summer House MV, Family Karma, etc are on pause.

[NothinButAttitude]

Good. We need new cities. In turn, honestly, we might need to retire some of the older ones that are past ten seasons. 

Bravo should've literally just acquired the rights to the upcoming Real Housewives of London instead. I never understood why they didn't just make Ladies of London a housewife show. But maybe they are about to try and franchise Ladies of London and do international shows as "ladies."

The other two shows, I could not care less about. Especially, anything consisting of funky a** Reza. 

[DaytimeFan]

Delighted to hear it's returning, though as a total reboot I'll reserve judgment on whether it'll be any good. The expats in the original were mostly cringe so I hope they do better with casting this time. 

Julie Montague, The Countess of Sandwich (she was Viscountess Hinchingbrooke when LoL was on) has made a nice littler career for herself doing royal commentary in the UK. 

The Valley is a mega hit for Bravo so I can see why they'd want to expand the franchise, somehow, and Reza and MJ always played ball.

The Real Housewives of Rhode Island was rumoured quite a while ago so there was someone with good intel. A new city is a good thing.

I think RH Wife Swap will prove to be a hit, just as Love Hotel is proving to be. What they need to do for next season of Love Hotel is replace Joel Kim Booster with Luann as the host. 

ATL

Britt's sister is insane. I still dislike Britt though!

Angela reminds me of an OG ATL Housewife.

Shamea has no storyline.

Porscha has no storyline.

Kelli is a financial disaster and fronting big time.

Drew is appearing in 50% of the airtime.

Cynthia is excelling as a Friend Of.

I see why they brought in Phaedra.

I completely understand.

I see Julie pop up in the most random places on TV over the last few years and it warms my heart. She's come such a long way. I used to hear about Marissa and her restaurants from time to time as well. It's good to see any cast member doing well because it gives me a feel-good vibe of remember when.

 

Yeah, I hate to agree, but I see it online. I still get the ugh. It's just odd (but not surprising) to see the worst people on their respective shows get to bounce back after their shows ended so horribly due to their toxicity.

 

IKR!!! Now I hope the other cities are also true. I would love to see a successfully-made city around Chicago as well as a Real Housewives of New Orleans. Preferably with an appearance by some castmates from SOUTHERN CHARM: NOLA. 

Well it was mentioned that it seems like NY was not renewed (and it seems like the cast still talk to each other EXCEPT Brynn) so you might get that retire wish.

 

[DaytimeFan]

I sincerely hope that NuRHONY is dead. What an awful show and a good lesson for Bravo to learn: you don't fire vet OG Housewives like the NY ladies and expect to find lightning in a bottle with a bunch of random women who don't know each other.

Dorinda is working on a Bluestone Manor show for Bravo in the vein of Vanderpump Villa.

Bethenny Frankel has just moved to the Miami area. Jill lives in Boca. Ramona and Sonja both live in West Palm...throw in Luann and Dorinda and we have ourselves a show. Call it RHONY: Snowbirds.

Marissa just opened Olivetta on Melrose in Los Angeles, it is doing very well

The thing I can't get my head around is opened the place with Matt, but they announced their divorce last year.

Side note: The Hermer's must think that they are big news, because like many celebs they filed in San Bernardino rather than LA Superior Court to avoid publicity.

Obviously, a divorced couple can still work together.  But, I wonder if they mended fences?  I can't find reference to a reconciliation.

Agreed, with the stipulation that it is like a needle in a haystack to find five wealthy women in Manhattan who all know each other, want to be on TV together, and make good characters for reality TV. 

Thus, I think there's something to be said for keeping the new RHONY crew, who have now known each other for at least four years.  They've been together thru the Brinn drama and that chick who quit during the first season.  So, they legitimately know each other and are a part of each other's lives at this point.

Interesting that like Jersey they are calling it RH of the state instead of being attached to a city. RI like NJ isnt known for having a big glamorous city which is probably why they aren't anchoring this to one. I wonder how far the cast will live to each other and I everyone actually lives in RI. It is small so they could get away from having a person in CT or MA for example

As long as it doesn't become a storyline like Mr. Connecticut.

Thank you for this! I thought Olivetta was the restaurant that burnt down in the L. A. fires! But if it's there, there...neat. ETA: My bad. I made it to the front page of the site.  

 

I also didn't know they were divorcing. Wow.

 

Hehe. I liked it, but it was definitely not the same as originalNY. And if it is dead, that just means that Brynn truly was the production pet and with no one wanting to film with her, they would rather cancel than get rid of yet another problematic person...which would be the easy way out. 

 

I heard about that. I wonder if she is done filming yet. And I love Vanderpump Villa. Almost done with S2. I still like S1 better, but it's been an enjoyable mess. As a result, I keep going back and forth over which season is better. 

 

Love.

Dorinda hasn't started filming. The word on the street is potentially June.
