RHNY Season 8

Oh my God.....it's hilarious to me how venomous everyone gets over a dumb comment like this. Lighten up it's a silly tv show people.

Either you like Bethenny or you don't.

Personally, I get what she was trying to say. She's always silly and over the top.

All the pearl clutching Sensitive Sally's here need to chill....

Completely agree, pp. Please, there is a difference between a punchline and a point of reference. Yet another example of how people now are so sensitive about anything that is said.

Again, "Toddlers in Tiaras" is enough of a reference. "Honey Boo-Boo" would actually be a more current, relevant reference. Bethenny was just showing off how "out-there" and "real" and "irreverent" she is, and I'm more than over her.

Oh good lord! When I think pagents, I think JonBenet and not because she was murdered. Sorry to disappoint that Bethenny (and I) are not current or sensitive enough. Thanks for the reminder to double and triple check all implications of anything I say or write from now on.

OK, two PPs above, we get it. You think a murdered child is comedic gold. We get it. We get that people who think otherwise are "Sensitive Sallies" who need to "lighten up." Murdered child = humorous. Got it.

Not the first time and won't be the last that Bethenny's unfiltered mouth crosses the line - it's why they hired her.

I'm really starting to find it a little sad, though, her need to lash out and inflict barbs on every last person she meets. Seemingly small piercings that go deep. It's obviously what killed her marriage and I think Carol's imperviousness is the only reason they're friends.

Oh, OK. Her murder was OK then, because she wasn't 2. Thanks for clarifying.

Did I say that?

NP.

JonBenet is a cultural reference to a certain type of childhood experience. It is also very unfortunate that she was murdered. Both things can be true at the same time.

It's not like Bethenny cackled with glee that she is dead. She is making a reference that, by the way, we all immediately understand. Which is why she said it.

I can't even imagine why some of you watch any of the Real Housewives shows if THIS is what gets you worked up. On the offensive scale, this is a mere blip in the Real Housewives world. You all should just change the channel.

People watch this show because they like getting worked up about this kind of thing. This New York lot isn't as bad as some other behavior that's left me truly appalled by what some of these women will do and say in front of cameras.

I think Sonja's problem is also her most endearing quality, she's an idealist. She has all these dreams and schemes rattling around in her brain but stumbles on executing them, and because she had an extremely powerful, incredibly wealthy financial guru as her husband who probably hand-held her in financial matters she aims way above her pay grade. But that is also the reason why we love her. She truly gives zero f'ks, a line I'm increasingly more convinced Bethenny stole from Sonja. And she lives her life like she's inside a music video. The party never ends in Sonja-Town, even when the gogo dancers have to switch out their ecstasy for Lipitor and Ramona is on her 17th face lift, Sonja will still be there, dancing on a box having her vag shielded by Luann as she stumbles ontop of the latest fetus to walk in the door. This is why Sonja will always be the greatest housewife in Housewife history.

Is Jules playing stupid or is she really that dumb. Either way, it is a complete turnoff and I have zero respect for that woman.

I think the psychic did research on B. I would have said the same thing re: anniversary of dads death and never marrying again.

John and Dorinda are getting boring.

I love sonja.

Why isn't Sonja as involved in this season?

I wonder what she thinks the definition of "old money" is - having wealthy parents and then marrying a rich guy?

Anyone know how many generations wealth has to have been in the family in order for a person to be "old money"?

In the US, it is many, many generations. Sonja's ex is old money; Sonja not so much. Jules is also not a WASP, which makes her not a candidate for old money status.

Wanted to add, Jules' husband isn't old money either. She is a bimbo who doesn't understand the term. no reason to get all uppity with Bethanny.

I just read in a magazine today while getting my hair cut that he made money in some porn investment company and that he has liens against him for not paying taxes. I'm too lazy to find a link though. I thought it was funny in one episode that she didn't know how to make coffee. The maid must do it.

Ok Andy Cohen needs to put this on Bravo's website or read it in the opening credits or something. Love it!!

And in the last episode she couldn't make tea either!

Anyone see this week's episode? Wow, I think Sonja is in for a fight with Bethenny over that wine name!! How could B not be upset?
