I am looking forward to this show. I just hope it doesn't go down the same road it seems the OC show has gone.

What is your best guess as to who is involved in the big "blow up" that is being touted in the tv ads ?
I like Luanne and I look forward to the NY version since I an envious of those who live in Manhattan. The OC and Atlanta housewives scenes are getting very scripted for me.

You mean Mrs. de Lesseps, us common folk aren't allowed to call her by her first name lol.

Don't care for Luanne, she turned me off to her last season when she thought she was the Queen of England or equal with her remark to Bethanny.

I understand having respect for someone with a title such as President or Queen, but she is just full of herself.

Thanks Chitchat for reminding us peons not to call the Countess, "Luanne"!

I'm betting the big blow-up will involve Ramona and probably Bethanny (because she doesn't always filter her words before speaking).

I think the blow-up is between Jill and what's her name with the strange husband? Alex/simon?

Thanks Sugar, that should be interesting. Simon and his spouse are so very strange.

They were on the 3rd hour of Today - Al interviewed them - the countess promoted her new book (thanks to all the fans that wrote her asking etiquette questions she realized there was a need)

and a preview suggested more drama with Simon (he does provide fodder for 'discussion')

Anyone remember when Simon said (in his extra thick accent) at Jill's dinner party, "Is etty-cut claawss, or is claawss etty-cut?" He was just trying to sound very important. I would have thrown a tomato across the table at him.

Take note, it's not on until 11:00 p.m. eastern time; I thought it would be 10:00 but I just checked.

I loved seeing the NYC ladies again. It really looks like there will be some big blowups this season!

Huk--I agree, the previews look scrumptious! Looks like we see an "angry" side of Simon.......I can't wait!!!

Could this have been on any later? I stayed up for it, but am paying for it today.

I am starting to think that Alex and Simon aren't that bad. Well, at least they aren't any worse than the rest of them. Francois was so excited to use the pool at their "Provencal" rental. (lol) At least they are very engaged with their kids.

I wanted the new socialite to do something with her hair. Talk about horsey, it looked like a hot mess. I think Bethany looked great, but her implants were obvious in her bikini when the rest of her is .5 % body fat if that. That girl works hard for her bod, that's for sure.

I have a feeling all the ladies were on their best behavior and are only going to get worse as the season progresses (I hope).

Nyheat--I am tired today too, as I stayed up to watch the entire episode.

If anyone is interested, all the ladies blogged about last nights' show on Bravotv.com - some are pretty interesting; the jury is still out on the new girl for me though.

For those who can stomach it, here is a link to Simon's blog http://www.mccordvankempen.com/blog.php
He's apparently going to blog after each episode but they won't let him do it on Bravo - maybe because it's not the Real HOUSEHUSBANDS of NY! Jeez, this guy bugs me!

I there with you two. I also stayed up to watch it even though I was recording it. I didn't want to wait until the weekend to watch it.

haha Dannysgirl - that's what dh said about Simon - is he a "housewife?" well technically no, but come to think about it - it is always about Simon isnt it? When the women want to have a "girls only" who has to come? Simon - and last season he knew they filmed AT the Hamptoms so who had to go too??? Simon - and come on roflol at the house they rented!!

it was more my style than Simon's - esp compared to the homes they were filming parties and such!!

Did anyone else think that the Countess was a little more full of herself than last season?

I noticed that the Countess wore two versions of the same dress. A green one (with sequins around the V-neckline)while at home in the Hamptons and a blue one during the Diary interview.
I'm sure she was simply horrified when she saw that.

Did you notice that necklace Jill had on at the fundraiser? First it was on, then off, then on, then off...

Then while she was in the pool with Bethenny, her hair was fully wet and slicked back, then sort of towel dried looking, then wet again...

lots of bad editing last night!
