Hi! Like your posts but twice you have mentions Caroline's son but she has 2. Christopher is getting no love from you!

One comment said how Caroline and Dina don't like Danielle because of her "strong personality." And they don't have strong personalities themselves? The reason why they don't like her is because Danielle doesn't seem like the type to take their sh_t. Those sisters only like people like Jacqueline who let them walk all over her with her sweet and pathetic personality. Basically, these women can "dish it" but they can't "take it." I have a strong personality too so they'd hate my guts. As for Danielle, from what I've seen, I think she has a few issues... but we all do of some kind or another. People should just give her a break. She's lonely. :)

Bethenny:

I agree!

Congrats on your success, Bethenny! Can't wait to hear you dig into the Jersey girls as the season goes on, especially that skank Danielle. Since the 3-5 episodes have aired, I could just imagine you making some hilarious comments. Here's a suggestion: why not pen a book on how to deal with rediculousness amongst your peers, a'la Luann's Manners book (but i'm sure yours would be far more relevant!!!).

Hello,
I admire your wit, intelligence, and strength (especially surrounding the Kelley incident, you showed tremendous grace).
Watching the NJ Housewives makes me realize that I miss you on the screen! You have a likability, as well as a realness, that makes it easy to relate to you and want to be your friend. That, I"m afraid, is what this new cast is missing. Likability! I wouldn't want to be friends with them, whereas with you, the whole country would like to be trading jokes and giggles with you.
Hope your season comes on again soon!

Hi Bethenny: I first started watching the series with the NY Housewives and watched the subsequent ones (Atlanta and New Jersey) since then. I could not get into the Orange County one. You and Jill are my favorites of the NY series. Glad that you got Kelly straight and that you did not loose your cool. I agree with your feelings about her and with most of the other cast who felt Kelly should be voted off, if the show allowed for that. I saw your comments about the New Jersey Housewives. I disagree with your comments about Teresa. Yes, she is very occupied with showcasing Gia, but I get the feeling that it's what her little girl wants and Teresa is learning & implementing new things from the advice she is getting from professionals in the field, for her daughter. Plus, I do not think that Teresa is ditzy (you called her that). She is very into her family and yes, she may spoil her kids at times, but she is grounded in terms of her role as mother and wife and has shown she has sense when she has given advice about family (to Jacqueline) and men (particularly about Danielle's escapades). I also like Jacqueline and Caroline because they are also into their families and appear to be down to earth and not fake. Looking forward to seeing the new season of the NY Housewives!

Bethenny, I absolutely love you and applaud your ambitions and dreams. As for Season 2, I would have bumped Kelly while she was running in the road...that girl needs her head checked; she doesn't seem to be alltogether. Loved you and Jill and how you ladies brought comedy throughout the show!

As for New Jersey, you seem to be a little light on Danielle; thought you be a bit harder on her. Anyways, I love Dina and Caroline, but I think Teresa's heart goes into her kids and some of the comments she makes, without realizing it, are actually funny seeing as she doesn't really do much with her day. However, her children are definately spoiled.

Loved the show and totally looked forward to watching you and Jill crack me up!! <3

I love you! You're my favie fave of all the housewives. Have you gotten into a relationship or still having fun? xoxo

Bethanny, you used to be my girl. Now, since you have become soooo popular you're thinking a little too highly of yourself and you think you can say whatever you want about people. Question for viewers. If Bethanny is so smart,beautiful and talented, why do she hate a woman who she claims flirted with her so called man? Smart and bright women do not waste their time on bull like that. Who's really on another planet, Bethanny? Take your prozac Beth.

Hey Bethenny,
Your hair stylist is so hot. I would love to see him on the show more. He needs to be your gay husband like Brad is to Jill. I love your humor also. I also wanted to say who cares if you cry over guys, I do and that doesn't make me a weak or sad person. I can't wait to see next season.

I love Betheny! My favorite scene is when she and Jill went to see some Manhatten real estate and Jill was in that flashy coat and Bethenny make the comment that Cher called and was looking for her coat. I roared.

Kelly who wears a padded but under her jeans has no chance with you. You're smart and funny. Hard to beat that.

I'm not crazy about Kelly and Danielle but it's these wack jobs that bring drama and all to the programs. I hate to admit it but even Simon and Alex have grown on me. Boring they're not.

Who in the hell wants to watch average housewives??? Not me. And not anyone else either. If these chicks were well behaved and spent half their time in church, cleaning toilets and baking cookies and nothing else...........I wouldn't watch them. If you don't like the shows.....change the station. The rest of us tune in and even enjoy reruns.

And I don't live a boring life nor do I live vicariously through these women. It's just fun to watch.

The Real Housewives of NYC is the best followed by the NJ version.

Bethenny,
I have to say, I disagree with your see on Dina and Caroline. First, Dina, thinks who the hell she is and its really sickining. She worse than Kelly. And Caroline, is so arrogant. As you watch you can see that the two of them have no friends. And you don't have to wonder why. Who would want to be. And as for Jackie, she needs to grow some balls when it comes to her sister in laws. I would have told them where to and how to get there.......

Bethenny U ARE ALSO THE BEST. KEEP BEING UR SELF CUZ U ARE THE BEST.

I think ur great screw the others that obviously lead perfect lives and can tell someone else how to run theirs.

Blah, blah, blah!! Get over yourself!!!

Your revolting behavior on that reunion wasn't enough, you're back to give tips on mothering?
You should be ashamed but of course, you're shameless.

I like Jacqueline,she's very pretty. What I don't like is that she is too soft when it comes to putting people in there place.Like when Danielle put her too cent in, about telling Jacqueline's daughter not to invite her friends. I felt it was not Danielle's place to speak on it. I can see why Jacqueline's sister's in law feel that she comes off too strong. I think Jacqueline should grow some balls due to the fact she's married to an Italian.

I

I am not feeling this NJ cast. It is all the same. mani's, pedis, Botox, shopping, mom night outs...etc. We've seen this all before. It is getting boring already. I miss the NY cast. You ladies have substance and culture and don't have to flaunt your wealth. I enjoy reading the blog...my first time.

I am a huge fan. Are you going on tour for your book? If so, will you be making it to DC anytime soon?

That's my Bethenny! You call it as you see it and you are always right down to the last detail. Without a doubt you are the most insight of anyone I've ever seen. You call it as you see it and you never miss a beat. Personally I would love to see Kelly move to New Jersey because she would fit right in with that crowd, especially Dina and Teresa. Kelly's incredible snobbish attitude and cold personality would fit right in with Dina. Then with Kelly's lack of shall I say brains she would fit right in with Teresa. Keep it coming girl cause you are the best!

Thank q Betteny, for saying what i was thinking,and good luck on ur book tour. I bought ur book and love it. i would like the housewives of nj,if it weren't so much about family. Every episode is about family,"were thicker than thieves". Who cares! We get it. Blood is thicker than water. I want to see some cat fights, like Simone, Ramona, JIll and her accent, and also whats her name with on the OC. The one thats sooo loud?

Hi, Im a big fan of yours. We have the same sence of humor. Don't listen to any haters out there,usually their jealous idiots. I loved your quick responces on the reunion show, it was so painful to listen to Kelly attempt to complete a sentence and defend herself. My husband and I were on the floor halfway through, both laughing and in disbelief from it. Classic! Best wishes to you. We're the same age and I'm envious of your independance and success. Good job girl!

Bethenny,

I think you are the only sane one of all the casts so far. I love that you say what is on your mind and can poke fun of yourself as well. Don't listen to the haters...they're just jealous!

Bethenny,

So adore you ... you're a smart, supremely talented, naturally beautiful and authentic woman who possesses a razor-sharp, quick wit and someone who can detect the most subtle of nuances. You can always call it as it really is ... the "jester" in a Shakespearean play, as it were. I just love you ! (Even from the Martha Stewart Apprentice days ...) Although a gay man ... I who was shipped off to boarding school early on ... and was thrown into the horse (show) circuit since I was a young kid, too ... so, in many ways, I can relate to you. I'm from Houston and was in NYC for Westminster this past Feb. My friends and I were having dinner at Le Bernandin and I had to sign a release because they were filming there that night. I asked Eric Ripert if, by chance, it was my favorite show, HWONYC, and was bummed when he told me it was for PBS. :-( I was so hoping to run into my 2 fav girls ... Bethenny & Jill Zarin ! ... LOL In any event, stay cool ... and I wish you much continued health, happiness and success ...

PS ~ Poor Kelly. What was that poor, pathetic wanna-be thing thinking ?? Like she ever had a chance vis-a-vis the likes of you ?!?!? It almost "hurt" to watch her "dig her own ....." Sad ... yet hysterical ... LOL Rock on, Ms B !

Amazing. You hit this cast to a T. Everything you said, I thought. Your comment on Danielle's boyfriend is priceless. I said the exact same thing. Keep them up. I like to read your blogs more than theirs!

You're the greatest! Love your quick wit! Kelly (like Danielle) seems to write, produce, and star in the dramas that go on in her own head! She was completely fake! I laughed till I cried when Ramona called her the scarecrow looking for a brain....Kelly didn't even get it!! LOL. Hope the book is going well, Hope you find your Mr. Right, but he's gonna have to be able to know how to treat a gold cast rose. Cause you're strong and delicate all at the same time!! Much luv

I'm sorry...is it schkeeve? I don't know and wanted to ask..

Bethenny the book is the best - thank you for your insight and just being you!

YOu know I started to Watch housewives of NY because of you I saw an episode and thought you were so real!!!

Bethenny -

I think that people need to stop taking your amazing humor so seriously and lighten up. As you know, there are only certain people that can handle your humor and you only need to listen to them.

So when are you moving to NJ to become a jersey housewife yourself? As a jersey girl myself, we really appreciate your sarcasm.

Has anyone else thought that LuAnne and Danielle sort of favor a little? They have the same voice and head movements and could most certainly be related! Just an observation.

Hello Ms. Bethenny,
I thinnk that you were absolutely fabulous in NYC real housewives, you were my main reason for watching. You seem like such a strong woman with many goals, I admire you! Keep up the good work and good luck with Skinnygirl!!

Beth, ur one of the tops. From Altanta is Nene, from OC is Gretchen, and from NY, definitely u girl. From NJ, I'm not sure yet. For me they are a little akward.
About "Planet Kelly" forget about that. Maybe she's trying to hide something.
Don't change B. And keep making those crazy lines of yours... AWESOME!!!

can I just say how much I admire you? You are awesome. You have way more restrant than I would have ever had with a women like kelly. During the reunion I kept hoping you'd hit her,lol. Can't wait to see the next season of New York!

Bethenny,
I LOVE YOU yer soo funny

Congratulation's Bethenny on your best selling book. You and Jill are my absolute favorites. Did I read Jill's blog correctly, that Kelly's donations never surfaced??? Again, just shows us all that Kelly is full of B/S. I sooo disagree with the viewer named Kelly, about you being jealous of Kelly, you are so not. As you said in the reunion show, when did Kelly ever give you a chance. Never. You opened the door a couple of times to clear the air. Enough of that....

You are doing great, and I'm so glad to see that you are having great success. I'm going to miss seeing you gals. Until next season......

Hay B,

The HWNJ have nuttin on HWNY. I miss you girls on tue nights. But I am making the skinny girl margarita every other night...ok every night but who's counting, and they are wonderful. If i can make a suggestion though to film HWNY in the winter during christmas time. I'd love to see what you guys are up to during this season and to see NY in the winter is so nice. Keep your career moving...it will all be worth it in the end.

I NEED MY RHW OF NY!! I LOVE YOU, AND OF COURSE JILL ZARIN. The reunion was friggin amazing and all i have to say is "ramona get off the crack pipe". HAHAHA halarious. you rock bethannyyy

Bethenny-I think you are awesome and you and Jill are my favorites of all housewives. I do agree that you are too easy on the Jersey wives, cannot wait til next week. Tonight should be interesting.

You should be very proud of whom you are. Know your past is a difficult one to think about but you are who you are today because of it. With technology today we can rewind our old school tape-recorders to now our television shows BUT we can NEVER rewind time. Have to look in the mirror and say I have done the best I could/can do and made the decision to the best of my ability at that moment in time. That is all we can do. It will be one of the hardest things to do and it continues to be difficult at times but the freedom and weight lifted off your shoulders is amazing. Hang in there and always be whom you are. You got it going on.

Bethenny: Love your look and your sense of humor. Are you still seeing that French guy. He's perfect for you!

I finally watched both parts of the reunion today. Ramona is like a shaky chihuahua. Why is she so jumpy? Simon and Alex (who's the star?) are social climbing, eccentrics. Jill cracks me up and seems to be genuine. I like Luann a little more, now that we know her life isn't the fairy tale she tried to portray. Thank you for addressing the "Countess" crap.
Kelly takes the cake. She is a nut. She said all throughout the show the the two of you were different. Then at the end of the reunion she claimed that you two could have been friends because you're so similar. HUH? She walks around flirting with every man in sight and is rude to the housewives. She only went on the show to promote KELLY. It doesn't surprise me that she has so many legal issues. She always seems to avoid answering questions and wants her bfs private. What is she hiding? Why is she on the show? I wouldn't mind if she didn't come back next season. Let her go off making those hideous owls and living her amazing life.
I have to say, YOUR ARE MY FAVORITE HOUSEWIFE! I love reading your blog. The reunion shows are always the best, true colors shine through every time.

In a sea of narcissism and selfish, immature behavior, Bethenny, you are the brightest spot of hope, sanity and common sense of all the New York housewives. I trust your reasoning and slightly irreverent opinions, because it rings true. I truly hope that your nemesis, Kelly, is not invited back next season because she is obviously in need of professional treatment, as her grandiose-delusional and rude behavior (particularly toward you) was tragically demonstrated. To me, you exemplify the best that a young female entrepreneur from New York has to offer...you are pretty and intelligent, funny and yes, you are charming, spiritual and you have a good heart. You deserve nothing less than the best, and I am astonished and very happy for your meteoric success, seeing on Good Morning America, the Kentucky Derby, et al. You are spot on regarding the New Jersey housewives, too, which also comes as no surprise. I feel that you and Laurie from the OC Housewives are the two best women in the series because you are women of substance. I like the other ladies on the show, except for Kelly (she should be kicked off), but you exemplify what a well-rounded individual should be, and you do it with such grace and honesty. Keep smiling, Bethenny!

Bethanny,

You are right on the money. I liked to watch RHoNY because you can always tell it like it is. It is so refreshing to see a real honest person who is so direct. That is something I used to lack in my life until you came around. I have finally found my voice and am real. Thanks for you sense of humor and your true sense of bluntness. Keep up the good work and May God bless you and give you many blessings.
Melinda from Texas!

Bethany:

I've got to be honest, I can't even get into Jersy yet since my head's still spinning from that whacko Kelly. Is she reallly serious, I mean for real??? I tell ya I am 220lbs crazy, Portuguese, and a Rhode Islander and before I lose weight (by reading your book) I will gladly go to NY and have a lil' "chat" with Kelly. It's women like her that make it tough to befriend other women, I just wish the other girls spoke up about it. Hey, Hi, Hiii, hey, cute, VOMIT!

why did the season of HWONYC seem so short? bring it back next time longer

Beth I think your great and I agree with you on all the comments that you made about the cast of New Jesey. Just want to say cant wait to try your skinny girl margarita!!!

Is there anything Bethenny doesn't think she's the queen of? I mean, her show's over, yet she's still here, shoving her know-it-all everything down viewer's throats. All the bloggers like myself who made our feelings of discontent with Bethenny known, were deleted from the messageboards as soon as they were seen by either Bethenny or Bravo. She is too egotistical for words, bullied everyone around her, badmouthed anyone who crossed her path, yet had the brass ones to cry when she felt her feelings were hurt. and, enough of her bad childhood, many of us have had them, yet we don't use that as justification for such abhorrent behavior towards others. Bethenny and Jill bullied everyone; it appears the exposure went to their heads, and then some. Now, bring on the Jersey girls, and enough of B&J.

B, back to kelly, I love the way you make fun of her,(stop,stop and she scrunches up her nose) the woman doesn't have a thought in her brain, she's rude, No Class, and stupid.I couldn't beleave the countess was trying to be friends with that bimbo(big time).Money doesn't give you class.Bethanny keep fighting with that stupid witch,(you'll alway's win). Hey I also like alex and simon.And romona hate's when you tell her, she has crazy eyes, I thought they were going to pop right out,when she yelled at the countess.she is a little off(her nut) and Jill she's alwy's nice,honest and real,and she is a good friend to bethanny.Good friends are very hard to find.I really like the show, but really don't like KELLY.

Bethany I do hope you find lasting love, because you are a beautiful person, and I understand you abit. You are a strong, independent woman, which makes dating difficult. But "HE" is out there dont give up. I think Jill is a good friend for you and her mom is a gem.

Love your input Bethenney! You were right on! LOVE you girl! Can't wait for next season!
