I like the show but wish there was a bit more time on her sessions with the doc. This is where I find out why she hides behind the wall of one liners. My guess is that she picked it up as a defense mechanism sometime during her childhood. She can be funny and brutal. I did get an eye opener when gets going on her speed speaking. One more thing, Where did she put all that stuff from Costco when they got home?

I love all the comments and feel the same as all of you. FINALLY a show that's real, flaws, messy hair no makeup and imperfection!! This show I can relate too.

This show is great! I loved the Costco part as well--Jason was adorable. sigh, where do those men live...but it was so cute. This whole show is cute. I do wonder if all the drama on RHNY made Bethanny look bad, but now that she is out of there, she is wonderful.

Anyone else get teary-eyed when Bethenny got emotional about having no family at the wedding? And who wanted to reach through the Tv and slap Jason silly when he said, "Baby, the game's on!"? The show proves you can be entertaining when the drama is real and human and not manufactured. I am so looking forward to the wedding next week! Bethenny looked stunning in the previews. Even when she was peeing in the ice bucket. ;-)

I totally got all teary eyed! I like that this shows all sides of Bethenny, including her vulnerabilities and insecurities.

Bethenny is one of the few people I know who actually looks cute crying. She doesn't get the red nose, the red eyes. Instead, she gets a quivering chin. I hate her!

Oh, I get that he was yanking her chain, but still, Jason, dude, do not yank the chain of the pregnant lady! Especially the pregnant lady who is writing a book, planning a wedding, and trying to run a business. And then he goes and gets all sweet when she gets upset about her lack of family. Men!

I'm not so sure he was yanking her chain about the game. At that time, his thinking was anything he did, she'd want to be involved in anyways, so why bother. And March Madness... well, it's sort of a religious experience to some folks, isn't it? What I like is that they are BOTH flawed, but that they both know it. And know how to work around it. Jason totally was a jerk about sitting there on the couch "with his hand in the pretzel bowl" yet he then turned around and arranged for them to go get their marriage licenses. What I didn't like was that it appeared they left their trash sitting on the wall outside of city hall. Really Bethenny? You should've picked it up BEFORE you went in for the license. And if you hadn't, it was still there when you came outside and asked for pix to be taken.

Costa my thought as well about the trash ! Who do they think they are ? People need to pick up after themselves period.

Jason knows there are just some things he can't do for her, no matter how much help she wants. Bethanny just can't let some things out of her control. Think of her list to the wedding planner. What was left for him to do? Jason could have helped with the menu for the reception which is what they were taking about in the scene where he says 'the game is on.' I mean it was just basketball, not HOCKEY. So Jason found the one thing he could do for and with her, go get the marriage license. I do agree....pick up your trash. Now if we could get everyone to do that this world would be a much cleaner place. My bet is that Bravo staff picked up after them. It would have been a better sceen if B&J had done it themselves.

I would have killed him for the 'Baby, I'm watching the game' remark. All she wanted him to do was to say if he thought his 'plain food eating' parents would eat certain things or not. He could have easily given her enough attention to do that without interrupting his game watching significantly.

Here is an interesting article I happened upon: Julie Chen May Host CBS Remake of 'The View' By Josef Adalian Published: April 21, 2010 "Big Brother" host Julie Chen will shoot a pilot next month for a new CBS daytime talk show described as a mommy version of ABC's "The View," people familiar with the situation confirm. The show will be a panel discussion series, like ABC's long-running hit, but hosted by a variety of moms: celebs, news folk and semi-ordinary people. In addition to the Chenbot (she likes that nickname, so no nasty comments, please!), other personalities slated for the pilot include "Real Housewives" star Bethenny "No Relation to TheWrap's Danny" Frankel, former "Roseanne" (and "24") star Sara Gilbert and daytime refugee/ "Dancing with the Stars" Lisa Rinna. CBS is no doubt considering Mommy View for the slot soon to be vacated by "As the World Turns," which ends its five decade-plus run on the network this September. The talk show could compete with some game show projects in the works at the Eye, including a new version of MoJoe fave "The $25,000 Pyramid." In addition to "Big Brother," Chen also co-anchors CBS's "The Early Show." It's possible she could continue doing both the news program and the talk show, though Chen -- who recently had her first child -- might also decide to finally give up the drudgery of working on the forever-stuck-in-third-place "Early Show." Chen, by the way, is married to CBS chief executive Leslie Moonves. If this project -- first reported by the NY Post's Page Six -- does go to series, we're hoping he'll guest host if producers ever decide to do a daddy's day. Make no mistake: That would clearly be awesome. CBS declined to comment on the story.

Mummy, my thoughts exactly-it's not like it was a hockey game...lol That said, my family knows not to bother me during March Madness and any NHL game unless they're bleeding or dying. Wait for a commercial or intermission, or you will be bleeding/dying.

I think Bethany tends to be rather self centered at times. She could have waited until another time to ask him. And truly, would a 'plain' eating person think fois gras as a compromise?? LOL

I don't know, Texannie. My DH doesn't think b4 he tries to talk to me during a game. He says, "well, if it's a big play, they'll replay it over and over"-duh, not the freaking point!!! She may think the same thing-what, they'll show it on the highlight reel. Non-sports freaks, I mean fans, just don't get it. lol

no, its a new relationship - she was stressing out and needed to reach out to the man she was going to be with! and what better way to see one's true colors? I think Jason did admirably! we each respect each others space - but I know I truly drive dh crazy, his one and only "show" his request to watch and no be bothered is - 60 Minutes!! and often its easier said than done, but he appreciates that we acknowledge and try and give him that one hour a week!

I don't understand why Jason has not met the wedding planner yet? I didn't realize this until they made reference to it in the last episode. At the end of their meeting, Cookie-gone-bad was nipping at the wedding planner as he left and next thing you hear is Bethanny calling Jason out of the bedroom....he was in the apartment the whole time and didn't come out to meet the wedding planner? WTH???

Jason did meet the wedding planner. Also, we don't know that they didn't pick up the trash on the way out of City Hall. It is very likely that they aren't allowed to take food like that into City Hall to get their marriage license. We didn't see them walk down the steps and pass by the trash; the scene cut from them having their picture taken to a shot of them walking down the street shown from the back. They could have been carrying the trash with them, but we don't know.

Glad they picked up the trash. Neither one seems like the type to leave it, and it really nagged at me. (Oh the things I worry about...lol) And I thought gyros was pronounced "year-os", so I cringed each time they called it a gyro, as in gyroscope. Am I crazy, or what? lmbo I really need to pay as much attention to my real life as I do to others' lives.
