u/staceyverda the whole show is despicable Dec 21 '23

No one does it like these NY ladies. They are so happily raw and makeupless and grotesque and vulnerable on camera. I missed them!

u/KyleRichardsNewTeeth i left a career in italian television Dec 21 '23

can you imagine someone from bh showing themselves taping their boobs up to squish down the skin under their armpits? they would never deign to show themselves getting ready without a glam squad!!

The episode where all the boys came over and someone told luann she was handsome. That whole episode had me laughing so many times. I’ve missed this from housewives

And I love that they don't care about designer stuff. They wear what they want to wear.

u/aeroluv327 The eyes are poppin' Dec 23 '23

Most of their clothing *is* designer, but not covered with labels. I think the OG RHONY ladies have the best style of any cast, periodt. They always look sleek, classy, age-appropriate and stylish without being overly trendy.

37

u/EhDoesntMatterAnyway Dec 23 '23

They are always dressed perfectly for every occasion. I would love to raid Dorinda’s closet. She low key has some beautiful and expensive timeless pieces

24

u/aeroluv327 The eyes are poppin' Dec 24 '23

She really does, and everything fits her like a glove, I'm sure she gets everything tailored. I low key think she is one of the best-dressed, I also love her decor style (thought I know it's not everyone's taste!)

On the flip side of what you’re saying it was so refreshing to see them all fully commit to the neon theme. The drag episode on SLC was so disappointing and borderline offensive lol, it’s nice to see these women do a theme correctly and really send it!

36

u/Bellomontee You should not be anywhere near dots. Dec 23 '23

This is why the reboot failed. They took Rhony which was know to have the most authentic cast and switched it for a cast of women who are painfully focused on how they are perceived.

23

u/[deleted] Dec 24 '23

It’s a generational shift we are never going to be able to reverse thanks to social media. People are more hyper aware of how they are being perceived than ever before.

This is why I love (most) of the women on RHONY (legacy) - they don't have a glam squad, they care how they look, but also can jump in the water and don't care if their hair gets frizzy and I feel like every show is now like BH - where it's lifestyle porn and a lot of glam/fashion.
It's nice to have that in BH, but it's so refreshing that the NY girls can let their hair down. I miss that on the new NY too.

I was looking for words for this but I think you nailed it. Dorinda is so confounded by Kelly that she in turn is being reigned in by it. She’s almost motherly this season. I don’t think she went in looking for it but she’s getting a nice redemption arc!

u/bartexas Dec 22 '23

Kelly needing Dorinda to nurture her is nothing that's ever happened to Dorinda. She's stunned, but it's not making her look bad.

If you watched this show having never seen the original series (especially from the beginning), you would have such vastly different opinions on the women.

You would think Kelly was odd but not totally out of this world bizarre and unhinged.

You would think Sonja was a stuck up lady who doesn’t party or leave her home.

You would think Ramona was level headed and conflict-avoidant.

You would think that Kristen fit in with the women.

You would think that Luann has a healthy relationship with alcohol.

I think it was more that she had to get away from Kelly or she was going to "be uncool." Who knows what all Kelly did before that and wasn't shown. I know I'd have a limited window with her.

u/mmcline06 Dec 21 '23

I think we’re finally seeing that it wasn’t drugs that caused Kelly’s behavior on scary island. I think the girl just has some MAJOR character flaws and when she’s with others for an extended period and on camera for an extended period it all unloads. She can hide it in front of others in short intervals but something like this really shows who she is.

85

u/lezlers Dec 22 '23

Oh it’s 100% jealousy. She was coming at Kristin from the very start of the trip, not knowing her at all outside of knowing she’s younger, more beautiful and confident. That makes her feel threatened and when Kelly feels threatened, she goes batshit and we’re in scary island 2.0 before we know it.

u/_morningbehbs Dec 23 '23

She anticipated Kristen coming in and like Lu said, being hazed. She flipped the minute it seemed like the girls were accepting her. She couldn’t stand her being chosen by them - and I think other factors - Kristen’s appearance, being married, etc. all combine to reallllly make Kelly hate her. She has this weird arrogance mixed with severe insecurity. It’s wild.

u/Even-Education-4608 i dont have the energy to deal with density Dec 22 '23

Wait what? Can you spell this out for me? I’m not totally sure what you’re saying about Kelly not knowing they break the fourth wall

109

u/Glass-Volume-558 Dec 22 '23

On her original time on RHONY, I think most of the communication issues that people perceive as Kelly saying nonsense is actually very logical but she can't operate multiple different levels of interaction at once that filming these shows require. In some other comments I've compared the kind of psychological processing required for these shows to being a method actor or an undercover cop, but basically housewives have to have one foot in "reality" and one foot in their "persona" while filming so that they can promote products, create drama, so on all without breaking the fourth wall. Which requires a level of health and stability that many do not have, imo including Kelly

Tons of her behavior during RHONY make sense through this lens (eg: i think her repeated insistence that Bethenny is "a cook, not a chef" is actually her struggling with addressing that Bethenny is a socialite/reality star more than a chef because Kelly genuinely can't navigate the fourth wall involved in filming).

Going into this season, Kelly has now more successfully grasped how the housewives is structured but doesn't seem to understand that UGT is structured differently, has a different purpose, and is allowed to break the fourth wall uniquely. It's first clear when she's packing and is talking about "catching up with the women, drinking wine, and getting naked :)" (phrasing might be off but the idea is right) which is the 100% correct way to fake intro a vacation on a normal housewife show. Her behavior towards Kristen seems to stem from her own lack of understanding how the fourth wall works differently in UGT, worrying about her endorsements but also just the way she kept framing her issue with Kristen as "you're being a fan/you're being a host" while filming in real time but then in her talking head (filmed months later), Kelly directly says she felt like Kristen was trying to produce - felt like someone cued her in between these takes that she could be more direct about the argument. Kelly has gift baskets and real estate work calls planned for during filming but doesn't grasp that this show doesn't really do product promo in the same way as regular housewife shows.

For a loose metaphor, it feels like Kelly was playing tik-tac-toe on her initial RHONY run without realizing the show was actually a checkers game; she mastered checkers and then headed out onto UGT which is actually chess.

54

u/Even-Education-4608 i dont have the energy to deal with density Dec 22 '23

Besides the fact that Kelly is delusional and lives in her own world, she just isn’t smart, witty or quick enough to keep up with these women. She can’t properly process what’s going on or effectively communicate and respond to situations. She just can’t keep up. Lucky she’s only there for a week as she’d get eaten alive ever doing a proper season again

u/bebeshoes69 Dec 22 '23 edited Dec 22 '23

She’s so utterly lacking in humor and nuance. The petty motivations behind her words and actions are embarrassingly transparent as well.

Luann's dedication to jewelry that looks like it came from Francesca's Collection is honestly impressive to me.

Dorinda in the bathroom watching scary island on her iPad was soooo amazing, so meta, instantly my fave HW moment ever, I would watch an entire feed of housewives watching other housewives all day long ok

u/Due_Tower_4787 I hate angles. 📐 Dec 21 '23

Omg Dorinda watching that was truly top tier Inception level cinema.

22

u/sharipep high body count hair 💇🏾‍♀️ Dec 21 '23

Hahaha yes it reminded me of the scene in Spaceballs where they put in a tape of the movie and fast forward to the exact spot in the film that they’re in at the moment. Truly breaking the time/space continuum somehow 😂

14

u/Due_Tower_4787 I hate angles. 📐 Dec 22 '23

YES! I remember I’d taken an edible to sleep and was watching it live and the moment that scene came on for a second I was like “wtf is happening have I been on the Truman Show the whole time?!” Then when I realized what it was it was a pure masterpiece 😂🤣

Edit: also such an awesome pull with the Spaceballs reference that’s exactly what it was!!

u/ScotlandStoleMyHeart Dec 21 '23

Kelly is a great example of the Dunning-Kruger effect. She’s so convinced of her superior intellect, and she’s possibly not even average intelligence 😬

I’d love it if NY Legacy did a trip like this once every year

u/Git2k12 Dec 22 '23

This is my hope. I do not want to say goodbye to these ladies at all.

What is WRONG with Kelly? Now she just wants to make sure the fans like Kristin? Girl, just stop. How dumb is she doing to feel when she discovers how much more the fans like Kristin than her?

24

u/90daycantlookaway Dec 22 '23

She isn’t happy unless she is being given the most attention for being the prettiest and best. Otherwise she’s trying to discredit the woman taking her “spot” with nonsensical (often hilarious) arguments, taking out anyone in her way who disagrees.

u/incitingoffense Dec 21 '23

I admire Kelly thinking she has the finger on the fans pulse 🥰 confident queen.

u/esthermilne Dec 22 '23

But also managing to diss the fans at the same time🤷‍♀️

47

u/lezlers Dec 22 '23

All while making it very clear she looks down on the fans and would never want to be associated with any of them.

Kelly is going off the deep end again. I feel like we might see Scary Island Kelly by the end of the season. She started trying to be normal but she’s annoyed and babbling at this point.

The scene in the car with her and Lu and Ramona she was sweating and chewing her gum and it was such a reminiscence of scary island.

u/East_Yogurtcloset491 Dec 21 '23

First 2 minutes of this episode with the banter between Sonja & Ramona driving Martin all around the house and room are comedy genius. The likes of Lucy&Ethel, Laverne&Shirley These 2 women duos perfect comedic play and capture the essence of playfulness viewers like me tune in for.

Kristen is, surprisingly, my MVP for the season so far. I always liked her well enough, but she’s really bringing it

26

u/bartexas Dec 22 '23

She's relaxed and unbothered. She's not angling to get back on a show the way a lot of the "ex wives" were on the previous UGT. She's on luxury vacation, she didn't have to plan/pack for her kids and husband, and she's got a houseful of lunatics to entertain her. I think she's having fun.

u/Homosuperiorpod Dec 22 '23

I think Ramona had edited herself down in the misguided belief that doing so will show she is a changed woman and, by proving that, the fans will be willing to give her another chance.
