Alex and Simon... well, they're something alright. I go back and forth between liking and disliking Bethenny- for someone who seems to understand other people pretty well, she seems confused about her own issues. I like Jill and Luanne the best as well, and I can't stand Ramona. Free Avery!

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @shananigans: Me too. My husband and I watched the old and new episode the other night, and we just COULD NOT stop. We tried changing the channel... only to change it back!!

Also I really REALLY don't like Ramona. I feel bad for her daughter.

LuAnn's flashing necklace? HILLARIOUS. I was dying!

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> I don't know why but I can't stop watching this show either. And Alex makes me cringe (her kids are totes cute though). I like Betheny for her quips but she clearly has issues. My fave is Jill and I like Luann too (though I hate how she leaves her kids and that nanny might be getting fired because although she was diplomatic, she was basically like you suck at parenting).

Ramona probably the only one I fully detest. Doesn't Avery remind anyone of Dakota Fanning in Uptown Girls? She's purposely clean and neat and controlling as a response to her mother's craziness.

Wow.

So they ASKED the other couple out to dinner and then hesitated when the bill was presented?

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> for me, this crew is a panic-inducing flashback to high school in the valley - materialistic, mean as fuck, and yet they don't have the excuse of being too young to know better. they brag about their luxuries constantly and yet say it's tacky to discuss money. Luann is the worst, with those smirks. yet i can't look away.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> i will preface my comment with letting you all know that i work at one of the nicest boutiques in manhattan: this show is like my job, without profit or enjoyment. its like one long dry heave. the producers couldn't find one skinny pill-popping boozer? there are only 5 million of them in this city. these women all belong at the short hills mall, stuffing cinnabon into their gobs.

chicklit

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @BadenBaden: Yes, but also the kid was totally staring at her tits! That freaked me out. Cover up at home? I dunno.

I think Alex wouldn't be so bad if she had ANY sort of sense of humor. I totally feel for her awkward turtleness, but someone needs to tell her that social climbing is a bad word. If you're hell bent on it, and least be deft and subtle. Like a social-climbing ninja!

And I feel really bad for Betheny if she had to get drunk to have a talk with her bf. You have no leverage if you're trying to strong-arm him or even "rationalize" about a big decision when you're admittedly plastered.

rbdfoxes

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> I wonder if Alex is anorexic. That would explain her awful straw hair. On the first episode her gay husband said something like, "Alex was blessed with a model's figure." Puke. These bitches make me miss the OC housewives.

And that poor band just looked deflated at the sight of those two (and presumably the crew).

Next episode: niece and the Countess wear trucker hats to Union Pool!

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @pinkyt: I thought the same thing! And I also thought, dumb bitch, the mother is going to watch this and see that you really didn't care about the charity, you were just buttering her up. She may be the sanest of the "housewives," but she's a highstrung, judgmental bitch. Yes, Alex's obsession with pretending to be cultured and wealthier than she is and her insistence on turning her kids into snooty, Brooklyn-bred Eurotrash are annoying and pathetic. But, you don't give her shit over her gay husband and baby Einsteins to her face and say within earshot that you don't need her as a friend, and yet socialize with her constantly. That's just rude. And I seem to recall her pressuring her bf about moving in on another episode. Now she's trying to corner him while drunk. Um, if you're so rich, invest in a good shrink and find a reputable sperm bank. Don't use a crappy reality tv show as leverage in your quest to drag an unwilling guy to the altar.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> How is it that Alex spends 20k on clothing ( and tells you alll about it) and still manages to look like she shops off the sale racks at Walmart. I know what it looks like because I shop the sale racks at Target
Also, if you are so fucking smart as to teach your children to sing twinkle twinkle star in aramaic, how is it you haven't found the Alberto 5 hot oil treatment?
Alberto is certainly European.

I don't go around picking on people's clothing and hair choices in every day life, but if you are going to be a pretentious twit...prepare.

FatBottomedGirl

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @CookiePuss: That's because they spent all of their disposable income on hideous miami-trash clothing an episode or two ago! They are by far the most pretentious/phony couple i've seen on any reality show. gahhh and I know it's been said before, but Alex's hair makes me throw up a little.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @BadenBaden: Oh my god, the entire 'LuAnn goes Downtown' segment of the show had me seriously lolling, what the fuck was up with cool hipster nicole's stupid leather headband. it was so misshapes/teen vogue, which is by defintion SO dated. And then LuAnn's super cool glowstick necklace thing!? SO NU-RAVE luann! how do you manage to be so hip!?
And Bethanny is my fave simply b/c instead of having children or a husband in her little title frame thing they show at the beginning, she has a cute grey dog.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @Motown: I agree, the more languages the better. It's just clear they chose French in an attempt to be "European".

Also, I live in Miami, which shares the Caribbean's climate and as much as I agree that the beach is always a good thing, I also have to say that you don't want to be anywhere near here in August. Heat, humidity and hurricanes. There is a reason they pay 1/10 of the price.

Pretty much sealed for me they're a bunch of insecure wannabe takers. Bleh.
I know a couple who act just like them, but on a middle class level (desperately wanting to be their level though!). I got so uncomfortable watching them brag and one-up everyone, I finally had to disengage myself.

@Lymed: It is to your benefit to check on which islands are having jellyfish season where. Because you should go to the Caribbean any time you can, as often as you can. Seriously. It is good for the soul to be on a beach for several days in a row.

stoprobbers

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> Alex is so that painfully skinny girl in high school in Kansas, that didn't know how to dress to make skinny translate to cool. That one with the big, that read Camus alone in the lunchroom? Nobody picked on her, she was so gawky she was invisible. During gym class, she gritted her teeth and vowed to show them all. She would be a star and her kids were going to Oxford. Then she married a gay guy that picks out her clothes and moves to Italy with her, and he is as driven and obsessed with climbing as she is. All the fallout will hit poor Johann and Francois, when they don't quite make the cut socially and Dad goes in search of himself at a bathhouse.

Bethenny spells my errrr...her name incorrectly. Damn, did she nail it when she said there are no perfect children.

And then they did...and I didn't, but sheesh! And she had that one line towards the end about where she literally said they are so interested in meeting people who move in higher social circles. I've encountered a lot of social climbers but never any who openly admit it. I can't decide if that makes it more or less tolerable!

How about it you make a fantastic donation to a charity, you donate it and feel good about it. I just thought it was horrifying.

@Lymed:

Since I can't stand Alex and Simon, and totally prefer Jill, I'm going to very irrationally take Jill's side here. I'm sure Alex and Simon enjoyed their trip, but I also have a theory that they can't afford Hamptons real estate yet still want to "summer" and try to pass off their off-season St. Barts trip as something they choose to do instead of going to Hamptons because they're soooo much more worldly and cosmopolitan and exotic than all that.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @Lymed: Oh, I know you're right. And yes, they probably did. Although, as someone who has had family in the Caribbean for my whole life (my Oma was born in Curacao and most of her family still lives there, and then she and her husband and my dad and my uncle moved to St. Thomas to take over the family store when my pops was 14 -- the store closed in 2004 [tear]), the summer is not necessarily when you want to go. Aside from the fact that it's hotter than all get out down around the equator, that's also jellyfish season. I got a lot of jellyfish stings when I was a little kid.

stoprobbers

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @fulanita: I see what you're saying. If I lived in the French immersion school district I would send them there. I'm lucky enough to live in a district that also happens to be useful!

I just think that it's great to teach your kids as many languages as possible. There are less obstacles for a child to learn than for an adult.

And Jill and her husband were very smooth about it.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @stoprobbers: The hair thing was cracking me up last night too. I only watched a few minutes. After I turned the tv off all I could think was what the fuck is up with her hair? I routinely pull off better hair.

I can't snark on the language issue though. I want my kids to go to Spanish immersion school (which is the public elementary school in my district). I won't be dropping that fact in conversation all the time but I think it's a valuable lesson to learn at an early eage.

HoneyLush

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> My favorite part was LuAnn talking about how she was going to go hang out with her 23-yr-old neice "downtown" - and she used the word "downtown" approx 57 times in a 10-minute span. And she looked painfully out of place with her (although seriously, what was up with the neice's headband?!) in that awful coat. And she complained about the neighborhood.

Oh, and her poor son who said "all my friends' parents stay home every night, you're never here!" Get used to it, kid. Your mom is clearly not interested in spending quality time with you.

BadenBaden

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> Betthanny wants desperately to come across as the 'careergirl' but her 'career' is in fact Reality TV star. She was on Martha Stewart's Apprentice. Her father was a well known horse trainer to the horsey set on Long Island. So she grew up in that world while not being of that world.

I like her just fine, and love how she called that woman's gay husband 'token gay friend' ! Awesome.

But she is NOT representative of New York career girls, she is a reality tv star.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> Last week I couldn't stand Jill for walking out of the fashion show, but then when she told the camera, regaridng Alex's kids, "She's worried about what kind of schools they're getting into. I'm worried about them getting their asses kicked", I loved her again. Her and LuAnn should just get their own show where they solve mysteries driving in the yellow Ferarri, because the other three bother me.

whitekidinflatbush

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @stoprobbers: But I actually think Alex and Simon enjoyed their vacation and Jill problably is more concerned about being seen than relaxing when she goes to St. Bart's. Jill is a wannabe too, or she wouldn't be on Bravo. She just happens to be a more successful wannabe.

Lymed

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> Bethenny has always been my favorite, and last night's show made me start to like Jill, too.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @Lymed: I think that's exactly what she was doing. Because Jill is a socialite and Alex is a wannabe. I'm not saying your negative reaction to it is inappropriate, but I think you saw exactly what was going on. I kinda love the cattiness of it. And OMG, can you imagine if Alex and Simon were there when the social people were and they saw their thongs? That would be the end of any upward social mobility they had.

stoprobbers

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> I think Jill and LuAnn are the two legit socialites on the show, so I like them. Also, Jill is ADORABLE in her Long Island Jewishness and I LOVE it.

Alex's hair drives me insane. INSANE. HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW do you have that much money and not be able to afford ONE DECENT FLAT IRON? Oh my god, and a decent colorist. And stylist. I am a RECEPTIONIST and my hair looks 1000x better than hers!

In Re: fat farm -- doesn't her kid have arthritis? Because weight loss really does alleviate some of the symptoms of arthritis. And since her daughter's been back it's not like she's been a weight nazi about it.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> i can't believe i remember this but kansas lady and simon named their kids francois and johan because that was the name of simon's grandfather.

also, i love jill. and i don't blame bethenny's bf for not wanting to talk about his relationship on TV. I wouldn't either. that's private. she signed up for the reality show, he did not.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> @glamzonhobbitfeet: Word. It seems like Alex never quite shook that "awkward junior high" feeling. She was obvs not the girl that the guys went for in high school, and she's spending her life compensating. I know!

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> Don't we all have one of those insecure blowhard friends that you just wish would relax and STFU? I am painfully embarrassed for Alex, although she's too oblivious to feel it herself, apparently.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> yeah, she's definitely the wittiest, but i think she's got some MAJOR control issues and neuroses. also, i found it a little weird when they were talking smack right there at the table.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> I like her, but she is too freaked out about her age. The way she was so afraid to talk about moving in with her boyfriend and she kept saying the "clock is ticking for me." I mean, no its not! She is hot.

I know way too much about this show.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> I only saw the sneak preview for this, but this woman's "boyfriend" seemed like a total asshole. He's jerkin' her around, and when she tried to talk relationships, he was all, "can we not talk about this?" I would have smacked him for trying to make me look a fool on TV.

But I can't see the clip so that's all I've got.

]]> <![CDATA[The Unmarried <i>Real Housewife</i> Is Definitely Our Favorite]]> ya! she's so real. I love this woman. and I really thought it was awesome how she said Alex overcompensates for her insecurity by being pretentious. Right on!
