Yeah, I had this on in the background but I kind of tuned it out when they got to the part where Bethenny was whining about will-he-or-won't-he-commit
type crap. If I wanted to see that shit I'd be watching reruns of Sex & the City.

I gotta say that as I watched I never once considered any of them as wrinkled, in need of a facial, or a dentist. I have a great TV, too! 62 inches of HD and I can't say I ever once looked at them and had thoughts like that. Am I just non-observant? I guess I'll pay attention next time, but I suppose I just accepted the way they look as the way they look. |

I actually stopped my Tivo to double check. I'm a teeth person so I notice these things. So far I like Jill because she seems like the only one I'd enjoy hanging out with. I can understand why Countess is drawn to her, she seems fun. Bethany is the only person I remember from Martha Stewart Apprentice and she didn't even win. Who did and have we ever seen her/him again? I can't even remember the sex of the winner. And I had to take a private jet to get from Martha's Vineyard to Logan Airport once because it was the only way I could get there. I had no idea how fancy I was! Of course, I simply went inside the airport and paid someone, then hopped on a plane. Jill and her husband probably made a call to someone they knew who had a plane and arranged it for free. I don't remember it being horribly expensive. It was, however the only time I've flown on a small aircraft and I can't say I'd do it again, especially after the JFK Jr. crash. |

I can't remember her name, but it was a girl with long blonde hair who won the Martha Stewart Apprentice. If I remember correctly, Martha was going to
start like an "everyday health and fitness" type magazine and her prize was to work there as editor, I think. I really am on the Jill train too. She
is very likeable.

I like Jill. I don't like Romona. Lu Ann cracks me up - she is one catty bitch. I found it funny Romona sucking up to Lu Ann and throwing Jill to the
wind. but really, is there any reason to get your panties wadded because you didn't get an invite. but what a dumbass thing to do on romona's part --
inviting the countess and not the friend you met her through. I'll be glad when all this vacay shit is over and everyone is home so we can mix it up with
alex a bit.
and what is twop? |

Ramona is a hag - and that plastic surgery she got has made her eyes permanently apoplectic. There is no way Jill hasn't had surgery either.

Alex/Douchebag Hotel Manager husband: Sickening social climbers. Plus they have an atrocious fashion sense. Those dresses were FUGLY.
It's so pathetic to listen to them talk about their social climbing because you know the true NYC society is laughing at their pathetic attempts to get
into the Cool Kids' Club while they live in their townhouse out in Brooklyn. I can't wait to see Alex interact with the Countess, Jill, Ramona, etc.
It will be like high school all over again.
Countess and her absentee husband: One cold-ass bitch. Catty as hell and the epitome of NYC society snobbery. I think I'll love to hate her and her headbands. Jill and her ATM Machine Husband: I'm a step-parent. I know you cannot force step-parent and step-child to have a relationship. You can facilitate it a bit but at some point it's either gonna happen or it's not. It's very uncomfortable watching her force each of them to try to bond. She's somewhat interesting other than this aspect. Ramona and her Tennis Coach Husband: I despise this woman. Everything she does says insecurity, desperation, not good enough (same could be said for Alex). I thought her little tennis match was an excellent comeuppance. Served her right. Amazingly, her daughter seems to have her head screwed on right. Bethenny and her Kojak Boyfriend: She's just 'meh'. I don't care one way or the other about her. I do detest her Maria Shriver jawline though. It was interesting that she was runner-up on Martha Steward Apprentice. I guess that got her some into the kitchens of some celebrities as a personal chef. Made me laugh that virtually the only bidder on her charity auction package was the friend of her BF. He must have fronted him the money so as to save face on TV. I'll give it another show or two...because train wrecks fascinate me. |

I love how these people are trying so hard to climb the greasy pole, for all the good it did Brooke Astor in the end.

These people are just as pathetic as the OC chicks. Ramona is the worst ever. What a wannabe.

Actually, I still think the OC women are much more pathetic. I like some of the NY women, and i actually have a favorite in this group of women (Jill) whereas
with the OC women it was more of who i disliked the least!
 at Bethennys homosexual comment about the faux-frenchies husband.

I love Jill, she's still a bit of a prima donna, but she's my favorite. Bethany has the best one liners. Ramona is grating. LuAnn is
incomprehensibly elitest. Alex is sadly too eager.

ramona just can never say the right thing. and LOL at her dissin' Jill for her not very "classy or elegant" exit. like she would know what
either of those things are. ramona is getting a horrible edit. I would feel humiliated.
and frenchie-hubby. that guy is just sad. I cracked up at his comment about just because he likes fashion doesn't mean he's gay. no, but standing there with your foot up on the lamp post in a classic captain morgan stand is very, very gay. I like Jill and I like Luann. Jill reminds me of a friend of mine named Luann. |

I'm so depressed today knowing that I've ruined my children by not teaching them a second language...It should. I love that education is so important to these New York gals. It's refreshing. Sure they go a little overboard, but at the same time they know the better your education the better your children will be when they enter the real world. The more languages a child knows the better their overall language and communication skills. I still don't understand why that so mocked. I mean, yes, she's ridiculous but she's not off base. |

I thought Ramona was insufferable during the commercial casting she went to with her daughter. Obviously, her daughter could give two shits about pursuing that
and just wants to go to school. Ramona is just trying to live through her daughter. Ick. She also looked like a moron with her "model" comment. I
felt bad for the models who were posing and heard her say that.
Jill was a bit of a drama queen towards the end of the episode, but whatever. I still like her. Bethenny's comment about Alex's husband was so full of win.

sugarrhill wrote: When Alex introduced their French au-pair and said they hired her just so that the kids will learn French, I thought, wow, pretentious bitch. Especially
after seeing all those ads with her snerling her nose at the thought of "suburbia". But later, when she and her husband were on vacation and
they spoke French between themselves, then she became okay to me. Yes, she's still pretentious but I don't
think she's absolutely beyond saving. Yet.
However, as parents, if they really want the kids to learn French, then they need to talk French at home a helluva
lot more often so the kids will as well. If they're only going to use it every once in a blue moon, then the kids aren't going to try either. I mean,
why should they (the kids) make an effort if mom and dad don't either? More power to them if they can do it. But you can't just stick your toes in the
water and figure you've done your part. If you're gonna do it, then dive in and frickin' DO IT.
Count me as being on the Jill bandwagon too. She doesn't seem quite as stuck up as all the rest.. except, perhaps, for Bethany. Who's not stuck up,
just desperate. Although she could do better. Much better.
Cuntass LuAnn <-- ohmygawd, I love that nickname! Whoever came up with that, I love you.
I missed last night's episode. So what happened between Ramona and Jill? Does Ramona have a housekeeper? Because, I don't see how that little girl
has managed to become so much more classy, tasteful and mature than either her mother or her father. She obviously picked it from somewhere else.

I like the name Johann, but Francois is even too French for the French.

See I thought the father was French! Oh jesus I thought they were making the kids learn french and named him francois cause his dad was french, but since he is
not, oy. Anyway I like the show- to gauk- plus the whole new york thing I can relate to much better than LA..... but I keep asking myself "why are these
women doing this?" especially the countess? And how they rig up for them to all meet up ===those that didnt know each other before, to say "oh nice
to meet you-- so you also signed up to be a reality whore?"....I mean it makes no sense to me why anyone who thinks they have class would go on this show.
Bethanny was actually a fucking riot on Martha's show..She was the one involved the Tide to Go jingle.."it's time for tide to go it's time for
tide to go".... that many sucksters can't get out of their head and quote from time to time in this forum..it's time for tide to go it's time
for tide to go...... Her and this funny guy Jim were acting like idiots on this stage and made up the song as they went along because they had nothing up their
sleeves. I could not believe when i saw her mug on this show. Reality whore x 2, way to guy Tide to Go girl! "
