The kiddie pool segment showed how normal Silex may be after all.
I agree that Betheny is not all that pretty, she is however witty.
Luanne just went on and on ad nauseum, for once I agreed with Raomona on her advise to Betheny.

I think Silex are annoying in a harmless way--except for little Francois, who is going to get teased at grade school. I don't see how it can be avoided.

(unless he realizes his parents are "special")

Don't forget Johan (?) - he's bound to get his ass kicked by the bullies.

I used to kind of like LuAnne, but some of her true colors seem to be shining through. Interesting the way she kept saying it was "her night" at the Hope Lodge. She was so busy being "classy" about Ramona's comments, she completely ignored the cancer patient sitting in the kitchen with them. It was like she was invisible. I felt bad for her.

Also - what was up with the pen with their own company name on it that Ramona and Mario were going to "donate" to the silent auction? Be like bidding on a Holiday Inn pen.

I'll admit it. I have a crush on Bethany. She is smart, witty, self sufficient and beautiful. I love her smile. He pithy observations are priceless. Her flaws are cute.

Oh, and she reminds me of my wife.

It is kind of ironic that in spite of Ramona apologizing at least 20 times, Luann wouldn't drop it and then accused Ramona of ruining her night. Ramona was so ready to move on 3 minutes after the brouhaha, but Luann wouldn't drop it. Luann ruined Luann's night.

OMG...HATE Bethenny's constant rant on airbrushing or not.....she is so annoying. WHy is she even on the show? She is no housewife, has no kids, and I don't even see the dog anymore. Someone please remove her form the show.

"Class with the Countess" should read "The Crass Countess".

Am liking Silex so much more....they are into their families and are a working couple. With her current layoff their discretionary income may come down a bit for next season.

I LOVE Bethenny! I could care less if she's married or a housewife. She's hilarious! Without her on the show it would be pretty grim. She's definitely the comic relief without being a clown. She's also a class act. Love her! I do hope she eventually finds her soulmate.

I think she went on and on about it cause Luann brushed it off and acted like Bethany's feelings were childish.

Luanne was jealous and said a mean catty remark. If flew right out of her mouth without a thought. It hurt Bethany. Luanne as a friend should have allowed Bethany to be hurt and instead of making excuses, owned up to her jealousy and apologized.

I also agree that Alex and Simon are annoying in a harmless way. If they are really that into each other, more power to them....lol I think Bravo is just intending on having Simon shirtless at least once an episode!

I think she's on there to keep the door open, just in case she dates someone intriguing and we can all be entralled by it. Ramona acts like she has Tourette's sometimes.

I will make an effort to catch up this weekend.

Without Bethany interacting and stimulating the other HWs, the show would be boring. She is the catalyst that makes things happen.

I have to agree with Malaka about Bethany. All of these HW's are so full of themselves without any real reason to be so at least with Bethany, we get some humorous comments such as "discountess".

Ramona is beyond tiresome and Louanne has become the same way.

Season 2 seems to be shedding a different light on some of the housewives. Alex and Simon seem softer (lack of a better word), LuAnn is coming off as a total lushy snob, Bethany's everyday girl is shown to be caught up in the social ladder. I wonder if it's on purpose by tptb or if after seeing themselves on season 1 these housewives changed?

You know every time I watch an episode, I feel like the women turn into more and more of a characature of the stereotypical New Yorker. Especially when I hear Jill (and her mom, who cracks me up), I have flashbacks to Mike Myers and "Coffee Talk". LuAnn is becoming more of the "my title means nothing, but you better damn well use it correctly dear" snob, Bethany is "I could care less about these people until someone offers me a magazine cover and then I'm all over it" and Ramona is the "what did I say? what did I say?" Alex and Simon...aka Lovey and Mr. Howell.

I don't dislike any of them, but they just seem so completely oblivious to everything and everyone around them.

Am watching last week's episode right now and... goodgawd, LuAnn needs to get OVER herself. Last season, I thought her pretensions were kinda quirky. This season I think she really thinks she's better than everyone just because she has a title (that she married into, that she did NOT earn herself or was born into). The bit at the Hope Lodge with Ramona? Sheesh. OK, yes, Ramona was out of line, but LuAnn didn't have to go stomping off about it, and then come back and continue to make a gigantic issue out of it. After Ramona apologized. I think there's still 20 minutes left and I hope the rest of the show doesn't center around LuAnn or I just may have to stop and delete the thing. Yikes!

Jill is still my favorite. Bethany can be funny but there is something rather sad about her. I have been less annoyed with Silex this season. LuAnn, well LuAnn likes LuAnn enough for the both of us. I find everything Romana says and does to be exceptionally annoying. Don't care for the new one at all, not even bothering to learn her name.

Something I forgot to mention... two episodes ago I commented on how I thought some of LuAnn's comments seemed fake. Like when she thanked the guy at the special etiquette luncheon she gave. It was like "I have to thank this person so that I give a good example of how to be polite" but there is no real meaning behind the words. I thought that again when I was watching this past week's episode. When Bettheny was all bubbly about her cover, LuAnn's "that's fantastic" and "that's great" just seemed rote. Again, "this is expected of me, as etiquette maven and countess, and so that's what I'll say" but absolutely no emotion or meaning behind it. And that type of response is, in and of itself, rude, yes?

Costacat, how dare you question THE COUNTESS. I'm joking with you, but I'm seeing a very different THE COUNTESS than I saw last year. Last season I thought she actually had some class - this year she needs a class. Or a clue. Here's a clue for ya, LuAnn, I mean, THE COUNTESS - your husband is older. Her constant diatribe against Ramona (whom I can't believe I'm defending...lol) made me think of the saying "methinks thou dost protest too much".
And more of my - it was rude of THE COUNTESS not only to diparage Bethanny's news, but then to blow it off with a 'that's not what I intended' and 'why keep going back to the subject' showed me she can dish it but can't take it.
At least these housewives are still entertaining me, not like the OC "ladies" (and I use that term loosely) of this season.
And btw, I need a spot on the couch with those that agreed with Silex - they still give me the willies, but I loved them in their backyard pool.

LOL!!! And yeah, 15 years older is actually quite a bit. While it may not make a difference, it's almost a whole generation different. I was thinking the protest too much thing, too.

I dunno, the entire episode was painful. Including Silex in the pool because really, I don't need to see flabby white bodies any more. Between that, and THE COUNTESS' diatribe against Ramona (who apologized a zillion times no less!) and then the flippant reaction to Bethenny, this was an uncomfortable episode. And Jill missed it all! :-)
