This season feels really, really awkward. They should have done more of a cast overhaul.

I think this is a big part of what makes her so unappealing. She's not interesting/likable for her own show, so why not get paid to disparage everyone else? She's also there to prop up Carole, but I'd be happy if they both left the show.

But she had her own show that got good ratings. And they just gave her a spinoff with the real estate guy...

Did she? Not her terrible talk show. And I attribute her spinoff to the fact that she's a Bravo insider now and wants more airtime, so they paired her with Frederick who isn't as universally reviled, so he can prop her up. And her bitchness may be a draw depending on their chemistry.

Bethenny Ever After. 3 seasons. Was popular. And RHONY ratings were in the shitter and her return got them back up. I get it that some people don't like her but obviously some people DO want to watch her on television.

I'm the pp who said she's unlikeable. I watched the show and liked her then, but she's grown increasingly hard to watch. It's really not interesting to watch someone who is clearly unhappy. She acts like being in front of the camera is a pain to her, exacerbated by the company she's forced to keep, which makes her even MORE unappealing.

I agree. Bethenny is unlikeable and her tactics on the show are growing old. Carole is also so dull and has no storyline except as Bethenny's follower. They both need to go, but since Bethenny is a producer and besties with Andy Cohen, seems unlikely unless the ratings drop off.

I watched like three episodes in a row last night and I agree with Bethenny about staying away from Ramona. Ramona has a raging case of narcacissm (sp?) only smaller than Trump's. That date she brought to the party seemed fine. Shoes can be changed - she could have introduced him to people and pawned him off on them instead of just turning her back to compliment herself to her friends.

Coke. It's why she's goes nuts every few episodes.

Sonja was talking smack about Dorinda everywhere, including some facebook group or blog.

Last season, Dorinda didn't invite Sonja to the Berkshires for a group trip. Sonja was pissed. At the reunion, Sonja and others did say Dorinda did coke. (Not sure that's what they are currently fighting about, but ok.) Over the summer (so following the reunion and before they started filming this new season), Sonja trashed Dorinda in online forums (not clear what forums), to other people, and in the press. Dorinda was pissed. Cue Dorinda chewing Sonja out at Ramona's dinner party.

Did anyone notice she had makeup smeared all over her eye at the bar? Ugh. You can tell no one likes Ramona because friends help each other out discreetly. Pull her aside and let her know and she can go to the bathroom and fix it.

Ramona was so crazy tonight. Even for her! She had to have been drunk during that conversation with Bethenny at the bar.
