The Real Housewives of New York City

Nothing special, but also iconic at the same time. I can’t explain it. I’m already trying not to become a fan of people I know will give me the ick as I keep going through the series.

Everyone woke up at the mid-season turn. I’m curious where they take it from here because Kelly gives Monica Garcia vibes lowkey. I didn’t realize this level of delusion was so enjoyable to watch.

Kelly should be on a watch list. Amazed that Bethenny is still the most relatable one at this stage. This season was hers and she ate it all up while being much more pulled back. I can see that really bothers the girls! I’m excited to see how Sonja shakes things up more in future seasons.

This one had a weird fall off. I started disliking Jill and LuAnn and loved the earnest friendship between Ramona and Sonja. Thankfully, there was less Kelly and Alex. Cindy is no replacement for Bethenny, but I see what they tried to do there.

A sleepy but solidifying season. The cast feels more gelled than during the last entry and I finally have proper housewives of this franchise to dislike in Heather and Aviva. LuAnn has really fallen from grace and Jacques deserves better. But what do I know? Like Sonja, I don’t stir the pot, I stir the drink!

Okay, so turns out I’m Carole hive and don’t mind Heather as much as I thought. Poor Sonja has lost me and Luann’s absence was a dark omen from the beginning. I don’t care about Kristen, but I hate her husband. It was great to see some iconic moments like the last leg in context. WHO ARE YOU TO GET ME WET?

Bethenny’s return feels like a renewed lease. I like how she was able to come in, cut through the noise, and immediately clock the dynamics and engage with them on her own terms. She really is a class in relationship management and is often playing chess when everyone else thinks she’s playing checkers with them. At what point do we get help for Ramona, Sonja, and LuAnn? Because those girls are not getting it. Now I’m a Heather fan, too…an interesting time to be alive. Glad Carole is living her best cougar life.

Nothing is really going on, but still a banger of a season. My girl Bethenny is still the only one with any common sense and I think that continues to paint a class story on this show. And in turn, she becomes the closest thing to a reliable narrator. And my queen Carole gets that.

Another banger season. Tinsley is annoying and I don’t understand the chokehold Ramona and Lu have over these women, but thank G for B and Dorinda. How is Carole the only one activated in the pre-T era? I’m not shocked, but ouch!

Watched Apr 22, 2025

The deterioration of Bethenny’s and Carole’s relationship was hard to watch. And the price was my love of B because huh? Tinsley is growing on me.

Is this the LuAnn redemption arc I was promised? Because all I’m seeing is someone very in the asshole stage of recovery where they’re not actually committed to wellness.

The beginning of the end really popped out this season. And yet, we still live?! Proud of Tinsley for getting out.

Watched Aug 25, 2025

That was a doozy to get through. The context of when this season aired makes it even more unreal.

Something in here is simmering, but the burner needs to get turned up.

Watched Sep 9, 2025

Interesting women? Maybe. Interesting show to watch? Not really. A particularly dark end of season mix that suggests filming needs a pause and begins explaining the delay in renewal/premiere announcements.
