Posting this link in as many shows that it mentions. http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-bravo08upfront12returnnewmondays,0,4199448.story Back for another season plus The Real Housewives of New Jersey, now that should be funny. Fourth season coming of Real Housewives of OC, yeah, I like that one better, maybe because I live in the OC!

Thanks Dannysgirl! I am looking forward to the season finale and the reunion show. These ladies are so comical!! I love this show! I do really like Jill. She seems 'real'. I like Bethany too. She seems very well connected - knows Tommy Hilfiger!! I did miss the banana hammock episode unfortunately, sounds like it could be great for a laugh!!

Oh my goodness the whole Francois thing with the kangaroo and burger was hilarious!! The look on Bethenney's face was priceless! And that Alex and Simon saw nothing wrong with the children's behavior ... unbelievable! I still adore Jill and LuAnn. I liked how they showed at the end of the show what everyone was doing. I would purchase LuAnn's book on etiquette. And it was so funny that they mentioned Avery was taking a break from her acting to concentrate on helping her mom dress appropriately! Great final episode!!!

Great final episode. I love Jill and LuAnn. I was stunned how Alex and Simon saw nothing wrong with Francois' behavior at the restaurant. But I did laugh at how upset they were that Simon was going away for nine days. Most of my married friends would love for their husband to go away for nine days... so they could have a girls night (with girls only). }

What a great finale! Bethenny had soooo many great lines last night - loved the one about how Francois could recite "Twinkle Twinkle" in Latin but they never taught him not to attack others food!! And how about Ramona when the kids were running around the table screaming! I hate that I watch this show alone because no one is there to laugh with me!! I watched "Workout" that was on after Housewives and they showed never before seen clips of Housewives - there was one with Luann playing tennis with her husband, the Count. Wow, she is totally subservient. I can't wait to see the reunion - looks like Ramona gets upset and walks out after Jill yells at her.

I've gotta say... I've watched a lot of TV in my lifetime and this show is just so incredibly entertaining to me! It rates right up there as one of the best ever, IMO. Probably because I know these are real people and I don't feel it is scripted. I feel just like you do, Dannysgirl! I wish someone I knew watched and enjoyed this show. I sit here alone laughing my ass off and nobody else I know is even watching it!

Ita with all of you. There is no way in hell I'd let my kids run around screaming like that out in public or but their hands or anything else on someone else's plate. I'd have snatched his ass up so quick... Can't wait for the reunion.

Dannysgirl - I saw that too - I thought something was wrong, but you may have it - she is a "countess" around her dh - but on the show she seems so strong, confident, even independent - does she ever negatively critizise anyone? I know she is good at giving her opinion, but somehow she always puts a "nice" factor to it - I thought those kids Froncois and Johann had a lil Helen Keller in them - dont they have a French nanny? The scene in the interview at the school I thought was hilarious - in front of a tv camera - he does have a lot of spirit - just needs a little structure in his independence... oh, and if you cant have a girls night out - that whole you were gone for 9 days and did nothing - what was disturbing was how Alex didnt seem to be able to do or think of doing anything alone - she needs some kind of hobby - even if its charity work - she kinda scares me in that respect - I'm not saying she has to do girls night out - a mom of 2 under 6 yr olds has a lot on their plate - but for 9 days, you'd think you'd want to at least have one hour of "me" time???

but for 9 days, you'd think you'd want to at least have one hour of "me" time??? Alex has the nanny (I mean Au pair...) to care for the <100> lovely children. She probably spent 9 days cruising discussion boards trying to find a fan.

Did anyone else crack up at the bit about Francois being accepted at the best public school in Brooklyn? PUBLIC SCHOOL? HAHAHAHA! That kid, while he may be precocious, is in for a very rude awakening at some point. The fact that his parents just let him sit there and pound on someone else's food was intolerable. Couple that with the running around and squealing! If I had been at that dinner party, I would've scooped <him> <100> and taken him outside until he could behave. While I'm sure they were in a room of their own, the fact that Alex and Simon allowed their kid to run wild and affect the other diners' enjoyment was just plain rude. I think those two have no clue. And that's why I thought the bit about Francois and a public school in Brooklyn was priceless. I'm kinda thinking Ramona isn't gonna be on the next season of NYC. She was not portrayed in a positive light and if she walked off the reunion set, it means that she knows it, too. Unless she goes on to try to "prove" that she's not really what she looks like. (Although I have to say, I totally agree with her about the girls' night out thing and how incredulous she was that Alex does absolutely nothing without Simon.) I like Jill. I think she's "real". I like Bethenny, although she occasionally irritates me with her attitude. (One day she's all in love and wants to move in with Jason, the next day she's broken up, the next day she's back in love.) And LuAnn is the epitome of class (Ramona? Are you paying attention? See how LuAnn brought up the girls' night out thing, gently, and then let it go? Hint hint!)

The kangaroo attacking the $30.00 hamburger at the hand of Francois was disgusting, yet comical. Who's to say that Jill didn't want to take that $30.00 beef patty home to Ginger? Wasn't Bobby paying for the meal?

P.S. Reader, Alex apparently "works." The kids are with the au pair while she's "working." She supposedly is an actress (if you look at her resume). I dunno what else she does for work, though. My point? I'm not sure she needs a hobby, as I do think she's got something to do with her days. And really, her hobby should be finishing up the remodel on that miserable place in Brooklyn! I agree, however, that she couldn't take a couple of hours, one night while Simon was gone, to do something on her own?

I think Alex/Simon and Ramona needs to read LuAnn's upcoming etiquette book. Or in Ramona's case ... Avery can educate her on the book.

Ramona was completely rude to harangue Alex on and on about girls night. it's funny about the girls night thing though, i know when i have said that i think it's important for parents to have a 'date night' i have gotten the same reaction Alex gave from some people. I have been told by some that time is too precious to spend with their kids and it won't be long before they are grown and gone....different strokes.

I think Alex works for The Limited Brands because I remember on the first episode she talked about have to do business trips to Ohio because that is where they are headquartered. Does anyone else remember that? She was sitting at her coffee table working on a computer. It may be Limited, may be Victoria Secret, one of those companies I am pretty sure. What she does for them, I have idea!

Costa, ITA with everything in your 7:47 a.m. post. ... and what's with those floors in A/S's townhouse? The floors are finished in the bedroom and the flooring in the rest of the house looks like crap.

Costacat - good thinking - you are so right!! I meant by 'hobby' is getting out in the real world, but I didnt realize she was a work from home, or actress, or something besides a climbing socialite!! and *duh me - I missed that Francois is going to PUBLIC school!! Not the one that he was interviewed for! hmmmm and that's before they saw the kids behavior at 21! Thanks for pointing that out!! so the reunion show has been shot and spoiled!!
