Posted: 8/23/12 at 9:13amI think the figures on at least, Bethenny, are low. I recall reading that she sold her company for a ton of money. I maybe wrong.

Posted: 8/23/12 at 12:08pmI read Bethenney sold her company for about $100 million but think I recall hearing that wasn't true.

Posted: 8/23/12 at 4:39pmDid Sonja's easy bake toaster oven not take off as expected?

They put out these figures for all of the ladies in the franchise, but I question their accuracy. I would definitely expect Bethenny's to be higher. She is a huge brand now. Huge.
Is anyone enjoying season 5? Ratings are down. But it's finally starting to find its footing around episodes 11 and 12. The trip looks like it's going to be good. I think the problem is that it feels too thrown together with the new ladies. Whether they liked each other or not, the original cast had an organic chemistry.

Posted: 8/24/12 at 10:17pmI may be in the minority, but I'm loving this season. I get so many laughs out of each episode. Of course it's nothing compared to "Scary Island," but I'll take what I can get.

Posted: 8/25/12 at 9:49amBethenny did sell her company, so I'm sure that figure is way off. As far as this season, the newbies have all been hit with the ugly stick.

Posted: 8/26/12 at 10:29pmI'm really enjoying this season too.

*spoilers*

...sorry for the caps, but I felt it was necessary to fully express my shock/awe/excitement.

She's claiming in her blogs that if she were to have an affair she wouldn't do it with a camera crew in a house full of women. She's claiming he just brought her home, and gave him a tour of the house.

Posted: 9/12/12 at 7:16pmI just have to say that although Sonja is a drunken train wreck who actually had to Google "white trash", I much prefer her to the sanctimonious scarecrow Aviva. What an uptight bitch. Anyone who expects a banner and a surprise party for showing up at girls weekend is obviously not coming on any of MY girls weekends. TEAM SONJA!

Aviva's father skeeves me out.
Luann thinking she can still hide stuff from the audience is hysterical. She also tried to hide her marriage with the Count falling apart.
Ramona and Sonja are messes but they've grown on me.
I also like Carole a lot but she seems too level-headed to remain on another season.

Posted: 9/12/12 at 7:33pmCarole is by far my favorite housewife. It's nice to have one voice of reason in the midst of that sh*t storm of craziness. I think she is very lovely.

Posted: 9/12/12 at 8:33pmWhen is this show even on? I only catch it by hit or miss.
#18Real Housewives of New York
Posted: 9/12/12 at 9:39pmI think monday??? I only ever watch it on demand!
#19Real Housewives of New York
Posted: 9/12/12 at 10:10pmMonday's. I was without a TV for a month in but Julie Klausner's recaps on Vulture were delicious substitutes.

Julie Klausner is hilarious! She and Billy Eichner are very funny on Twitter.
Aviva is an ahole, but I still hate Sonja and especially Ramona.
Ramona is my least favorite housewife in the whole franchise.
Carole is great, and therefore never going to make it another season. She's too normal.
