Brynn has an elevator that opens directly into her apartment, but it’s so small, the moving guys have to carry her couch up the stairs. That’s frustrating.

The stairs looked damaged, and in need of restoration.

The retro fitted elevators are smaller than a shower stall. 

They would have been installed by whoever flipped the property because otherwise a fifth floor walkup - or really any walkup would have to be sold for far less. 

The whole moving thing was staged because anyone buying furniture or other large items in New York needs to make specific arrangement with the delivery service unless it is delivery to a place with a large freight elevator or a single family home with normal stairs. 

Even then there could be issues as I live in a high rise with a large elevator and my neighbor bought a couch that couldn't fit through her front door. There are special services in New York City which divide a couch in half for delivery and then put it back together. 

Certain furniture pieces didn't fit through the garage (to the house door), or the front door of my house, but the house has French doors, so they could be brought inside. It can be a real issue in apartment buildings.

She is very tall. If you’re very tall, are you automatically hot?

No, says a short person. 🤣

So I 100% agree that Brynn is too much and her overtly sexual schtick is tired (and masking insecurity), but she is the only one of these women I would want to hang out with. She is fun (in small doses).

Show the Venmo of Jenna paying back Erin for the Uber. Done.

Did Erin and her husband let their kids race around willy nilly in Serendipity because their eldest, Levi, was with them?!?

They probably go there a lot and city children can be quite independent. Also, I looked it up and there's a shop with lots of gifts and toys for them to explore.

Yes I’m sick of this everything happening off camera bs.

This is a problem across the franchise. Yes, social media is a factor for anyone with any degree of fame, but it gets really tedious to see constant back-and-forth about stuff that happens off camera.

Brynn's schtick is getting old fast. The constant coquettishness is annoying enough but underneath it appears to be a deep insecurity that drives her need to be the center of attention at all times. She reminds me of Sonja Morgan, when people aren't paying attention to her, she'll do or say something outrageous including making up stories.

 

Brynn needs to take the tee-hee-ness down several notches. As she herself said, they're grown women.

All that said, this season opening was pretty good and the newbies seem interesting as well. I like that for the most part, they have actual jobs instead of just being Real Housewives.

I want to know who is funding her lifestyle, she seems to have no visible means of support, I mean she is not exactly wandering around the Macy's furniture department, she went boutique furniture shopping.

This was an issue last year, and Jeff Lewis raised it in that podcast segment.  At least I think that's who he was talking about.  Anyway, she's supposedly a marketing guru who gets hired for branding.  I don't buy it (heh heh).

I've been to Serendipity.  It's an ice-cream parlor.  Caters to families.  I doubt the owner would be upset.

Yes, I guess I was caught between Turtle Time and a tutorial.

I would not want to hang out with her, she’s annoying.  
 

Also she does this weird thing with her mouth, opens up the bottom lip into like a cup… hard to describe but she did it several times and it annoyed me!

And not even a "regular" ice cream parlor. 

It is a "fantasy" type of destination that caters to children. Lots of birthday parties.

Gift area with expensive items to come home with. 

No one including the staff is going to care about unsupervised children in what is probably the gift area. The better to increase profits by giving the kids something to get their parents to buy for them. 

No one would go there with the expectation of quiet.

A lot happens off camera, and not only on social media. It's nothing new. They film for only three months (at most), and for a few hours here and there. I don't understand why there is a problem. We only see a tiny portion of their lives. They don't live together, and they are not sequestered. Things happen when they don't film. They shouldn't discuss it? It's their lives.

Yes, Jeff Lewis was wondering who is funding Brynn's lifestyle.

I think Brynn also has an underbite, which makes this habit even more noticeable.

I'm not saying that their off-camera lives should be off limits; I'm just saying that the show becomes stale if we have to do additional background reading homework to understand what the Housewives are talking about.

I understand, but this forum, and others provide information with what happens beyond what we see on tv.

If it doesn’t happen on the show, even with other media outlets filling in the blanks, it makes for a confusing watch of she said/she said. It’s annoying. Not everyone wants to comb the net and hunt down information on what Actually happened.  I realize they can’t film them 24/7/365 but making a main storyline something that happened off the show isn’t fair to the viewers. (No, I don’t have examples, not doing homework)

Finally watched.  My thoughts:

LOVE Racquel so far and her fiance. I am straight but can see what she sees in Mel. 

I like Jessel ok. She seems pretty harmless. The husband said something I greatly disagree with but 🤷‍♂️.

Brynn bugs a bit. I don't like the coquettish way she acts. Grown women need to act like grown women.

Do not like Erin at all. Did she have a lot of work done between seasons? Looks different. HATED how she snapped at her husband at the ice cream place. His eyebrows need their own twitter account.

Do not like Ubah. She doesn't seem very nice.  

I appreciate Sai trying to change how she speaks to people. A mea culpa on past behavior can do a lot of good. Let's see if she can keep it up.

Still LOVE Jenna. 

Not sure about Rebecca. Let's see.

Can a couch that is divided (cut?) in half be put together without there being a dent or noticeable indicator that it was split? This is fascinating to me, seriously!

The thing with Erin is she has just a monotone voice, and her dull and boring attitude does not help. She needs to loosen up a little. Plus her constant, "I'm a New York, I'm from New York, and I'm from New York, I don't bullshit, I tell it like it is, blah blah blah" is actual bullshit. If you have to say it over and over, sorry, I ain't buying it.

I have a love/hate relationship with Sai. I think she can be fun, but other times she just seems so mean. I suspect both Sai and Erin are insecure and so they come across as immature and harsh at times (Erin more especially).

Screaming at Brynn she is the devil is not exactly changing the way she speaks to people.

No it is not.  She still needs a lot of work. But at least she saw how horrid she was to folks last season.  Will she or won't she improve over the season?  That is the question. 🤣

Had to do with a Elon. Seems he is a fan.  I personally curse him every time a launch happens.  Scares the stuffin out of my dog. And other reasons. :)

The food he was eating with Jessel looked so good!!!

They take them apart at the joints and reassemble them.  You wouldn't be able to tell.

I don’t like Elon Musk because of the kind of person he is, etc. for some time, but I have a Tesla. Are you in Florida, or Texas? I'm in SE Florida.

I am in Santa Barbara.  Lompoc is near by.  I concur on Elon!
