motorcitymom65 July 22, 2014 Share July 22, 2014 A preview of a tense interaction between Andy and Ramona at the reunion, which I cannot wait for. Oh Ramona, you dumb ass, if Andy wanted to really make you look like the insipid, hypocritical asshole you are he could so easily do it. As it is, I assume he will go fairly easy on her in the end. https://za.celebrity.yahoo.com/news/real-housewives-ny-reunion-preview-ramona-singer-lashes-173500686.html;_ylt=AwrBEiEt5s5TQV0An6eamolQ 2 Link to comment
ryebread July 22, 2014 Share July 22, 2014 (edited) They seem to be up in Aviva's grill about not going on a trip because she said she had "Asthma." There are whole scenes of them sitting around like the witches in Mac Beth getting ready to "take her down" TM Terry Dubrow. They actually seem pretty obsessed with her. If they didn't care about screwing with her then her name wouldn't be in their mouth all the time. I agree. If it weren't for Aviva, they wouldn't be talking about much, so it seems. IRL I doubt they spend much time talking about her, or I would hope as much. Although, I do believe that Heather, Kristen and Carole are the type of people that relish other people's misfortune so when Aviva or Moaner gets some bad press in the future, the coven will be the first to cackle over it. Just saw a preview of the reunion on Bravo's site. Carole's hair looks like fried ass. Kristen and Ramona are sitting next to Andy. Aviva and Lulu are at the ends. What does this mean in Sofa Speak? ETA: motorcitymom, I must've been watching the reunion clip at the same time as you. It looks awesome. Edited July 22, 2014 by ryebread 2 Link to comment

Ugh, Carole's hair looks terrible. Not sure what the positions mean, but the bigger news is that it looks like Lu is on the couch for the whole thing. Many folks had assumed that as a "friend of" she wouldn't be there for it all, which seemed nuts to me considering what a central role she played in the show this year. 1 Link to comment
Ratched July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 So if Aviva's asthma is due to reflux (and that can happen), why couldn't she go to Montana (or Wyoming, or wherever it was)? Reflux would be wherever she is. 5 Link to comment
Baltimore Betty July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 The leg toss seemed a little anti climatic after all the hype. Sad. I thought what's her name looked beautiful on the bill board. 2 Link to comment
TexasGal July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Ratched, I was coming to ask the same question! Inquiring minds want to know!! Luann's reaction to the leg throw was priceless. She looked like she was going to pee her pants from laughing so hard. 9 Link to comment
bosawks July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 What I learned from this is that if you're going to toss your artificial limb don't wear a sleeveless dress since you'll keep on tugging on it...... 2 Link to comment
ScoobieDoobs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) Exactly what I thought it was gonna be -- this ep sucked BIG TIME!!!!!! The leg toss was at the last minute. And everyone laughed at Veevs. Carole handed the leg back to her & told her she needed help. Whatevs. WTF is Andy talking about that was so great? Nothin', that's what. He's full of shit. Sonja babbled a lot of nonsense & crap & realized Harry is a total waste of time (duh). Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. So they ran this season all day today & WWHL is on after with Heather, Moaner & Lu. Too little, too late. They shoulda been doing this all along. I know the ratings are gonna suck. This ep was so tepid. Too much boring shit with Dickhead & Kristen. And Heather just said on WWHL that Veevs strategizes everything, but it doesn't work for her. Moaner said she doesn't, but Heather said she clearly had in mind to take the leg off & Lu said it definitely takes time to take the leg off so she had to have planned it.

FlyingEgret July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 What I learned from this is that if you're going to toss your artificial limb don't wear a sleeveless dress since you'll keep on tugging on it...... I'm sure the dress was 3 sizes big due to her 10 pound/week weight loss. Thinking about it now, I'm amazed the leg didn't drop off her skinnier thigh all on its own... 2 Link to comment
Chrissytd July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 So the purpose of the Sonja's party was to celebrate her entourage? 1 Link to comment
mothmonsterman July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Man, I LOVED this season finale. Oh Andy, why can't I quit you. I loved Carole and Heather shopping for bags. I wanted to jump through the screen and snatch the one Carole picked out that was 9k. I Totally envied Carole's apartment makeover. I would happily move in there right now-minus Carole. I even liked Kristen and Josh working together. Nice to see them respecting each other. Even Ramona was likable in this episode. I will be back next season, I even look forward to seeing the entire cast back (if Bravo decides it). Just keep Aviva to a bare minimum, please. Oh, but she brings the crazy. And I don't believe she is acting one bit. Craziness like that is hard to find. Sonja should have punched Harry in his face when he said he wished he had slept with Luann. 2 Link to comment
chewycandy July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) Loved Heather and Kristen's twin cocking of the heads during Sawn-ya's speech. Loved loved LOVED Lu's laughter as the leg was tossed, the million previews led us astray on that reaction. Sonja was the best, though. "You're doing great, Aviva." "You did great." "I would have done the same. I would have thrown my arm on there too." Perfection. Ugh, Carole's blonde hair in that reunion clip. Edited July 23, 2014 by chewycandy Link to comment
ScoobieDoobs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 So the purpose of the Sonja's party was to celebrate her entourage? Pretty much, but she babbled a shitload of incoherent nonsense that nobody understood. So Moaner said she dated Fabio. Um, WTF????? Why is nobody asking Moaner about Mario & his skank on WWHL? So nobody is gonna ask her bout that on the reunion? Er, huh? 2 Link to comment
HunterHunted July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) I'm convinced that the celebration for team Sonja wasn't a wine and pigs in a blanket party at Le Cirque; it was front row seats to a real housewives shit show. Boy was that a motley crew of attendees. And I did look up Le Cirque's catering menu and pigs in a blanket is on the menu. Harry and Sonja is/was so fake. Fake. Fake. Fake. Just like Aviva's leg and her excuses. Edited July 23, 2014 by HunterHunted 5 Link to comment
WaltersHair July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 I'm generally a pacifist, but I would have paid good money to see LuAnn pick up that damn leg and beat the shit out of Aviva with it. Enough with her and her staged dramatics. 13 Link to comment
ScoobieDoobs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) Man, I LOVED this season finale. Oh Andy, why can't I quit you. Wow, we musta seen a different ep cuz I was bored silly. Wonder what everyone else will think & how the ratings will go. I think Moaner's theory that Veevs just didn't wanna be away from her husband is most likely. But they all comment on Veevs losing weight. She's very thin to begin with, so she musta looked really frail. That may have had to do with her being sick or maybe she has some kind of severe eating disorder -- which I've always suspected bout her. Sheesh, I really get no hilarity from Sonja & her unpaid slaves. Btw, the shot of Sonja's townhouse is actually her townhouse. Notice it's right next door to a garage -- an extremely busy one. Ugh, that must be awful! No wonder she can't unload that place (just assuming, don't know that for sure). Edited July 23, 2014 by ScoobieDoobs Link to comment
Joan van Snark July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Wouldn't Montana have MUCH CLEANER AIR than polluted NYC?????? I'm not an asthma sufferer so there may be something about that I'm not taking into account--any asthma sufferers to educate us? I was not that impressed with the leg toss. It looked so staged and Aviva wasn't even that mad. I thought I caught her laughing shortly after. Fail. Carole to so unappealing looking to me. She looks so 'shriveled' (?) to me and like she would have a slightly offensive odor. She has the mouth of a Simpsons character. Don't quite understand why they all think she is so fabulous. 1 Link to comment
Straycat80 July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) Some small random things I noticed: they serve little pigs in a blanket at a swanky restraunt like Le Cirque? When Sawn-ya was scooting down the steps because her right ankle was so badly sprained, she stood and put her full weight on the right ankle when Pickles handed her the crutches. I don't think you would wear tight, black hooker boots if your ankle is sprained and swollen either. I think the sprained ankle was an act. I think Aviva does have asthma. A doctor would not have given her the inhalers if she didn't. But she should have been able to go to Montana. The air is clear there. And the x-rays didn't look like pictures if her lungs either.

rustyspigot July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Since I knew about the leg I thought the X Rays were funnier. "Take the (giant) X Rays home with you, Heather!" Aviva does work well with props.

Rhetorica July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 What did Sonja say when she shooed Pickles' hand away? Something about white hands?!? I hope I heard wrong! Link to comment
movingtargetgal July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 When I saw Aviva carrying that big bag into the party, I looked at Mr. Moving gasped "OMG she's literally bringing a big bag of crazy with her.". Then she started throwing lab reports and x-rays in people's laps! Aviva Dresher delivers the crazy like Dominoe's. 5 Link to comment
mbaywife123 July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Wowza! That was hilarious (funny & just what the hell ? at the same time). My head is still trying to process what my eyes just saw this episode.

ScoobieDoobs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) Aviva Dresher delivers the crazy like Dominoe's. True, but she was there for what? Like 5 minutes or less? They clearly didn't wanna give her much camera time. Edited July 23, 2014 by ScoobieDoobs Link to comment

I believe it could be easy, and she's capable of doing it quickly, but I have a hard time believing she could do it in a moment. She had to be prepared to do it. And I do think Lu is knowledgeable from her nursing education alone. Still say it's time for a total recast, but let's see how the reunion goes . . .

Grneyedldy July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 I thought this epi has some good and some bad. I think the whole "oh I never thought about my own wife modeling for us" was bullshit and boring. Though I thought Kristin looked beautiful. I liked Carole's remodel. I also can tell that Carole and Heather are friends IRL and I'm enjoying their ease around each other. Sonja's fucking nuts. Her trumped up sprained ankle with her black boots. And what about the two "interns" carrying her home? Where were the Bravo cameras for that special scene? Huh? Though I think LuAnn said it was all BS on WWHL. I loved how when Aviva told Heather to keep the X-rays and medical proof and to take them home......and then they show Ramona with a WTF look say "take them home?". Heather confirmed everything we thought about Aviva. It's all planned acted out. I agree with Heather that Aviva has been waiting for a moment to pull that stupid stunt. As for Aviva's illness, that is very real. It's called silent reflux. I know 2 people recently diagnosed with it. It can go undiagnosed and not properly treated for years and cause a lot of damage. So yeah, I do really think she's been sick, but she's still fucked up. 3 Link to comment
Sheenieb July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 What the hell was Kristen talking about when she said that asthma makes you fat? Girlfriend was really living up to her to tagline when she said that.

LotusFlower July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Just like I wrote after seeing the preview, Aviva planned the whole leg toss thing. As Heather said on WWHL, notice how Aviva's outburst towards her had nothing to do with what she had just said. Heather never said the words "fake" or "artificial," but Aviva had the speech in her back pocket and was looking for a moment to use it. It was so calculated. Carole's right - there's only one side to Aviva. She's pathetic. 4 Link to comment
Morbs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 I thought Luanne's amusement regarding leggate was the most entertaining thing about the episode. And then she was still laughing about it to the point of tears during her talking head! I say bring back Jill; this season was so boring and I swear it was only like 3 episodes long. 5 Link to comment
ScoobieDoobs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) I wonder if Aviva really is sick. Would asthma cause such a severe weight loss? Something else is definitely going on with her. Just looking at the people at Sonja's party. Have we seen all these people before on team Sonja? Who is that guy with the crazy bang hair? Well, at least the Moaner isn't wearing yet another '80's blue satin dress at the party (she's wearing one in her TH's tho). Looks like Carole is wearing a dress with some kind of heavy shrug. In the middle of summer? Er, huh? I still basically dig Carole, but she does dress kinda nutsy sometimes. Not necessarily a bad thing, just sayin'.

heebiejeebie July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 So the real question is which is sadder? Aviva's horrifically bad acting? Or Aviva's obvious self satisfaction at what she thought...was incredibly good acting. The best part of the night was that it seemed clear to me that Heather, Carole and Luann all saw right through the dramatic "reveal" as overly contrived and pre-planned and it was their horror that Aviva would go to such effort for that. Not stunned shock at Aviva's bold "impromptu" moment of honesty. I really hope someone at the reunion reminds Aviva that if reflux is the cause she can burp her way to breathlessness pretty much anywhere if she is full of gas. The problem with Aviva is she is so incredibly determined to build herself a cross she and hang herself from it, I wouldn't even be surprised that since she knew there would be a season capping gathering she would drop weight to look frail and more victim-like. Someone needs to tell that insane harpy she ain't Spartacus. Sonja is just such a fool. I don't see her as being deluded anymore as I just think she figures if she lies enough someone will eventually give in and make it happen. I think she knows exactly how far from the truth her comments are. I think she is incredibly lazy and remarkably self-entitled and selfish beyond belief. She just flops herself down emotionally in every relationship like some passive protestor and forces everyone around her to do her heavy lifting. Then compounds her heinous behavior by acting as if she is still some grande dame of society. Kristin and josh are just vile. She is so happy he validates her.. by finding her pretty. But professionally!! Yeah. wonder how much he paid her. He really is a piece of human jerky. Incredibly unattractive physically. If the show comes back I hope those two are a one and done. 5 Link to comment

Mackey July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 I'm so sick of the other housewives' reactions to Aviva. They've all talked about how she's crazy, nuts, insane, and "needs help." I don't know any decent people who make fun of and scream at people who have mental health issues! The more negative things they say about her the more I wonder why they are so cruel to her. 4 Link to comment
ScoobieDoobs July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 the more I wonder why they are so cruel to her. Well, they all have good reason to be angry with her. She's lied like crazy & she has said really horrible things about all of them -- maybe the worst (as Carole said) about Sonja. Anybody would be understandably & justifiably angry about that. While they say she's crazy, I don't think any of 'em actually believe she is. Heather said on WWHL Aviva is putting on a big act. Moaner said she's friendly with Aviva & had dinner with her 2 weeks ago. Moaner said she's nice & very different than she is on camera. Heather said that's cuz she's basically a fake for the camera. Not exactly a surprise, but thanks for the confirmation, Heather, that Veevs is nothin' but a phony on the show. 7 Link to comment
chewycandy July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 (edited) Luann said on WWHL that the facialist introduced herself at Le Cirque and Luann replied "I'd rather forget your name" and that it didn't air. Darn! There was the scene where Sawn-ya mentioned the "best facialists" in her speech and you could hear Luann say "I beg to differ." Haha. Kristen looked pretty in the shoot. She looks pretty when her eyes aren't bugging out and her mouth isn't hanging open, imagine that. Of course they had to freeze on her shocked face when her note at the end of the ep aired. Heather has a line of leggings called Bossy Pants?? I loved Carole's butterfly table. Edited July 23, 2014 by chewycandy 2 Link to comment

And haven't you been asking repeatedly for someone to bring up Mario's affair to Ramona? I know you're not a big Andy Cohen fan, but you have to hand it to him - he tried to bring it up, and she basically goes berserk. She's such a hypocrite the way she openly criticizes other people's husbands or relationships, but shuts down the conversation when it's about hers, and even takes a how-dare-you attitude. 5 Link to comment

I'm still trying to process my feelings. I still hate Heather, though. Loved her yelling at Carole to shut up. (There's more from where that came from, Radzi. You can bank on that.) Of course Aviva planned the leg toss! If you knew there was only one more episode coming up and you've got just one last chance to leave a lasting impression...hell YEAH you're gonna throw the leg. If you're smart like a crazy fox. She knew the coven was going to come after her. Very strategized, indeed. Heather's just jellus that she didn't think of something that whack to be remembered by. This episode may have been anticlimactic but the leg toss was gold and one for the Bravo books. Lu looked rough at Sonja's. If that was the morning after she left with Harry then, yeah, she was up all night. 1 Link to comment
