Codependency is so sexy!

Ooh Ooh, did anyone catch the numbers on that "Am Ex Black Card $250,000 Limit" in the product placement? I think I want a private plane too.

her husband definitely gives me the "vibes"

and something about her attitude just stinks. plus, those clothes? NOT CUTE

This woman is like Kelly from 90210 grew up and moved to New York. Shoes $800... Handbag $2,100... '80's hair, priceless.

alex needs to be beaten severely with that atrocious $1,500 handbag. what. a. twat. i can't wait.

"We want our children to learn French." It's like Madonna putting Lourdes in the Lycee and not understanding her when she speaks it fluently.

Okay, they are getting their creepy codependant pedicures at the korean nail place I go to because I'm poor and they have $15 pedis. It's in Park Slope. Which means these twits probably live around the corner from me.

Great.

OMG! I squealed when she mentioned the kids' names. The man is not French, right, so they're just Francophiles?

Are they trying to embarass their children?! Thongs and speedos, oh my!

I am SO PUMPED.

I randomly saw a sneak preview early in the morning on Bravo a few weeks ago and it totes made me late for work. I can't explain how it's better than RHWOOC but it is.

Dude, butt floss when you're at the beach with the kids? Really?

I don't care if he's gay, give me a husband with a black card and we're gonna get along juuuuuust fine.

Is it wrong that they make me stabby as well as slashy?

OH. NO. I knew this was coming, but I managed to forget all about it. Sigh. Now I'll have to set up my season pass....

Also: class act putting $30 worth of pedicures on your black card. I bet they tip for shit.

I saw a preview of this before work...also making me late, because I realized these are my backyard neighbors...whom I hate!

I always see the guy smoking a cigarette in the morning in his bathrobe with white trainers.

Those clothes were horrible. My God, those patterns nearly made me swallow my tongue.

Bag: $1500. Style: You can't buy that, baby.

They're getting their Pedis at Element Beauty Lounge on 5th Avenue in Park Slope! I go there too. I love it because the place is really clean and they don't charge outrageous prices like Dashing Diva on Smith Street. Preposterously rich people love a good bargain too...

more evidence that money doesn't buy taste. her clothes look like they came from chico's. why don't these people who are loaded ever wear or buy clothes that you'd actually envy?

and all i kept thinking at the beach scene was how old would the kids be before they started telling mom to keep her ass covered and not wear a thong bathing suit anymore?

ummmmm can anyone say GREEN CARD? they found each other on an "international dating site." uh huh.

@JessicaLovejoy:
I know! Her body was pretty amazing, though.
Still not an excuse.

It's so nice when "the well to do" prove that tacky and classless aren't the sole domain of poor trash and trailer park residents! At least this bane known as reality television is "equal opportunity" in that regard.

@JessicaLovejoy: i was thinking the same thing. i don't need to see her booty.

furthermore, that dress she tried on was atrocious. if he likes that dress, his taste is suspect. they sound like most of the entitled parental types that i've heard and seen in brooklyn.

in a word, ICK.

@AuntieMame: NO. WAY. You'll have to dish! Are they that douchey and pretentious for reals?

And is he or isn't he?

their poor children. do they have any chance at all of being normal?!?

@AuntieMame: ahh! what part of brooklyn do you live in?

@JessicaLovejoy: It's because she's just soooo international. Full coverage bikini bottoms are for Americans, and we're totally gauche -- haven't you heard?

What a pair.

The lady half of the couple is the very definition of the phrase "hatchet-faced."

why do i feel like this guy has some sort of handbag fetish?

This has to be a parody, right? Johan and Francois? The speedo/thong combination on the beach? Real bitchy self-obsessed Park Avenue couples do NOT meet on international internet dating sites. They meet at boarding schools or Ivy League colleges or summers on the Cape.
That said, I cannot wait to watch the rest of these tacky nouveau-riche beeyatches. Sign me up.

@hamburgerhotdog: My friend has a black card. She's not uber-wealthy, but she worked on the black card account over at AmEx for a while, so she got one. The most embarassing thing on earth is splitting a lunch on two cards: my friend's black card and my BOA debit card.

I am looking forward to this show more than I can adequately express. My guilty pleasure factor is equally high!

I can't believe that the ass-floss was not the first thing mentioned. My eyes didn't know where to dart in horror - his speedo, her thong, his speedo, her thong, mommy and daddy playing chase and tag with the baby in said swimwear. I blacked out and can't remember the rest of it.

@AuntieMame: VIDEOS. it's not illegal.

@hamburgerhotdog: score one for cobble hill! haha!

I didn't even watch the clip, and yet when I read that one of them lived in Brooklyn, I had a sinking feeling that they must be in Park Slope. Gah.

Anyone else remember when PS was full of laid back lesbians instead of these uppity yuppies with bad taste and too much cash to waste? I bet there's a bunch of us on here who live in the area.

Ha...they're mainly pretty boring. Alex made a snowman with her kids over the weekend...but usually the kids are out with their nanny.

And *gasp* she rides the subway. I recognized her from her coat, which she wears in the promotional shots.

@hamburgerhotdog: oh shit. never mind. @AuntieMame: where?????

No straight guy would say they "rustled up twenty-three pieces" when talking about buying clothes. Simon totes has teh gay.

@LaComtesse: Change BOA for Citibank and welcome to my world. Guess who they offer the pen to first?

Okay, as a gay, I can say that yes, I think the dude is gay. He however, is one of those rare gays that really doesn't have good taste in clothes or decor.

She needs to see a hairstylist. That 'do is scary and not only not stylish, probably somewhat age inappropiate.

@hamburgerhotdog: @AuntieMame: Oh dear god. You have to start looking for them and reporting back to us.

1. Why has no one mentioned his shirt? The one with blue and lime rhombus shapes? Aaaaa
2. Where were they shopping? Didn't that look like florida? You can't buy those clothes in brooklyn I'm pretty sure.

I'm betting his "lifestyle" profile describes him as "bi furious" ...

Yes, but do the parents speak french?

My mom wanted me to speak french too, but she spoke it also.

@AuntieMame: i thought she looked familiar. i lived on smith and baltic until july.

I do not even know what I'd do if my man evaluated my clothing to such an extreme. My man has two settings for commenting on my attire:

1. silence/does not care or notice
or
2. "oooooo boobs!" This one is usually supplemented by his hands reaching out towards them.

This is the way it should be.

Johann? Francois?!? Wow, money does not buy class...or acceptance by the French.
