Wait, RHONY is Coming Back?

December 1, 2014 by tamaratattles 62 Comments

I gave up on RHONY for a multitude of reasons. Mostly because there is only so much hate I can take.  Once I no longer found anything redeeming about any of the women, on RHONY I reached my limit. I was done. But also because there was a person on the show with some mental health issues I could empathize with and most of y’all could not. But now with the return of Bethenny, and the removal of that person,  I will mostly likely be tuning back in.

It looks like RHONY is getting a much needed overhaul.  Which means I should be getting back to caring about who stays and who goes. Which has been the dead last thing on my mind.

But click through to find out who is currently being test filmed…sonja

From Page Six:

The newest cast member of Bravo’s long running “Real Housewives of New York City” could be blond socialite Dorinda Medley, a source tells Page Six.

Medley was married to former George Soros partner and chief economist for the US House Banking Committee Richard Medley, who passed away in 2011. The couple met when she was a real estate broker, helping him find a townhouse.

Dorinda was heard telling a group of women, including current cast member Ramona Singer, that she was joining the show during a ladies’ brunch hosted by Erika and Debra Wasser for Glam & Go at David Burke in Bloomingdale’s just before Thanksgiving.

Our source says that many women on the show have been whispering that Bethenny Frankel, who’s returning to the series after a long hiatus, won’t be enough to boost sagging ratings.

A source close to the production confirms that they are shooting with Dorinda, but she’s not yet confirmed as a full-time cast member.

 

Okay so if y’all know who is coming back and who is not from other places just say, “Word on the street is…” so I won’t judge you for reading other places. Or if you just have guesses tell me those too!

    Word on the street awhile back was that Carol Radziwell, Heather and Luann were coming back full time. Ramona was demoted to FOH because she refused to talk about her divorce and had no storyline. Kristine recently filmed renewing her vows…the kiss of death for any HW. Not sure what they are doing with Sonja.

          ​When exactly did this happen to society? I was so glad that at this years Thanksgiving, my family and friends FINALLY stopped asking to take pictures and actually didn’t try to sneak pictures.

          WHY DO WE NEED PICTURES OF EVERY FUCKING THING? Sometimes people just need to enjoy the moment.

      Aviva. I like Aviva in the beginning but she is just weird about her legs. She uses it as a clutch a lot. However, I can empathize with some of her anxiety though. And her father…. weirdos … or may be it’s all for reality TV (I hear).

    Well, it has been “word on the street” for a while now that Ramona has been demoted to “friend-of” status. That came out right about the same time as the news that Aviva was fired“not retained”.

    My own speculation is that the new season will focus on Heather-Carole-Kristin, as theirs is a genuine friendship that is fun to watch.

    I think LuAnn will be back holding an apple, as this past season was a good one for her, and she’s coming back from a position of strength.

    I think Sonja will be back too, the viewers like her and her “Manhattan Madcap” antics can be entertaining television as long as Ramona is around to rein her in (hence her appearances as a “friend-of”).

    Bethenny’s return I could see going either way – as a foil/shit-stirrer among the other women, or as an ally to some. (Or both!)

    As for this other woman the article is about: Oh, who knows? It wouldn’t be the first time with this show that someone put their name out there as “being tested” and it didn’t work out. Remember that one a couple seasons ago? Cynthia? Joanna? Hell, I can’t remember her name right now, but she was the one who ambushed Jill and Bethenny to try to make up at her apartment and failed spectacularly. She also mangled the “Opinions are like assholes” saying in her talking head to everyone’s dismay. (Despite the fact that mangling idioms and colloquialisms is a Housewives trademark!)

    I’m also sure that other woman from last season (whose name also escapes me) the “Hamptons party planner” who was at LuAnn’s party, was a likewise “test” Housewife. Everyone thought she was Aviva’s friend, but Aviva denied knowing her, but she pissed everyone off, and was excised from the rest of the season!

    So bottom line: who the hell knows? It won’t be certain until the credits roll on première night; and sometimes not even then! I’m just glad they’re coming back; it’s my favorite edition of the franchise.

      sigh…I really don’t find the Heather, Carole, Kristen storyline very engaging at all. I don’t dislike them, they are just not reason enough to watch the show for me. I have a love/cringe thing going on with Sonja and Ramona. Those two are entertaining to watch, if impossible. With Bethenny there has been so much tabloid coverage of her strange marriage and divorce that I just don’t feel the same way about her anymore.

      Poor desperate Sonja is on Patty Stanger’s Millionaire Matchmaker with the famous trailer line, “Make sure he isn’t prettier than me”. This of course, rules out every other human being on the planet because Sonja (imo) is a mess in every way. I am not a fan. Whiny Bethenny won’t boost any ratings and the other girls are silly and superficial. I find Carol very out of place and arrogant to boot. Kirsten is dull and married to a total yutz. Ramona was interesting to watch but her life is a mess and she doesn’t want to share so she’s only part-time. I wonder how long LuAnn can maintain her niceness and not call everyone she meets “Dahling” because there was a reason why she became a “friend of” last season. I think that she only looked good and redeemed herself because the rest looked so bad. I think that this show is not long for this world and neither are Orange County, Beverly Hills or New Jersey. I also think that the entire franchise has worn out it’s pretentious welcome and I am tired of watching grown women stir up drama for drama’s sake and remove themselves from anything resembling reality. As far as Atlanta is concerned…totally fake and totally boring. I no longer watch it.

        I think the problem with Carole is that as a writer she is deep and introspective and those are her strengths but introspection in this setting (anywhere on Bravo actually) is really a weakness and not a strength.

    I agree that Ramona was demoted to friend; Carole, Heather, Kristen, and Luann are back fulltime; Bethenny will appear in some (limited?) capacity; and since Sonja is Andy Cohen’s charity case, she will be back with a full salary as well. That’s 6 women. Plenty, IMO.

    I don’t know much about contracts but it seems like they’re all(minus bethenny, who ironed her situation out with Andy and NBC back in june(according to Andy’s book)) on those funny contracts that Porsha/Claudia/Demetria were all on where you don’t even know what tittle you will have. Looks like they’re ALL being Retested and I’m not surprised with how bad ratings got last season. Wild guess: Kristen, Luann, bethenny and Ramona will be fulltime. Ramona didnt wanna talk about her issues at the reunion because she a Mario were still together but now that they’re 100% off she very open about it, she even did a blog on bravos website on it all and explained her reasons for trying to be quiet about it all. And truthfully, with that whole situation she’s atleast got a decent storyline which most of the others don’t. Sonja to me has the haughty chance of getting demoted, her drunk behavior last season, delusion about her “toaster oven” 4 years in the making, and constant crying about her financial situation is kinda a turnoff for most viewers. Heather and Carole I have no clue, both are boring and dry but the network seems to love them. The dorinda chick was first spotted filming on October 27th and even went on the cast trip to Atlantic city for Ramona’s birthday last week so if they’re keeping her around she must be bringing something to the table. Kelly confirmed on twitter she was filming(filmed at bethenny’s birthday and helping Luann with her clothing line) but her role seems “recurring” since that’s about all she’s filmed. It seems like it will be a “battle for an apple” kind of situation…

      Kelly actually filmed a scene this past season – at LuAnn’s (IIRC) charity fashion show. It turned out well – because she said almost nothing. I don’t mind Kelly as long as she doesn’t speak; but when she opens her mouth, the crazy/stupid comes out and I can’t stand her.

        I just meant that in Kelly’s case, she is both…and in spades! I find her inarticulateness exasperating. Every time she tries to make a point or tell a story, all she can manage is, “Like, it’s like, it’s this it’s that.”

    Why not bring back hideous Jill to mirror hideous Bethenny? Along with the other peculiar looking zombies on that show, they could beat The Walking Dead in the ratings. With the exception of RHOA, RHONY is the only show in the franchise that I consider watching beyond the ten minute mark. Bring nauseating Jill back too, and I might make it to fifteen.
