Season 2
Season 1
I don’t know about you, but I thought it was very enjoyable to finally see an episode with a minimal amount of drama. Could it be because the drama queens chose not to come along? Ramona had it right when she declared that Jill and LuAnn are buzz kills. Jill had chosen not to go because instead of the trip being about her, it was Ramona and the upcoming renewal of her vows that were the center of attention. LuAnn chose to follow along with Jill. No surprise there. Too bad they couldn’t convince Kelly to stay behind, but I guess we do need some drama. She certainly provided it.
At lunch we see Kelly start to lose it and she goes on the attack when the topic of Jill comes up. In her narration Bethenny states how it was like an electric shock that was setting off Kelly. I agree, but what was setting off that shock was the chip that Jill had embedded in Kelly so she could direct Kelly’s attack by remote control. That lemonade comment was vintage Kelly. After her self-imposed time out, Kelly manages to hold it together for a while until the evening when out of nowhere she begins to attack Bethenny, who is not only dealing with the loss of her father but is pregnant as well. I think Kelly’s lack of mood medication and the shots she was drinking (as well as that chip) finally took its toll and off into Kellyland she went. And what was wrong with 1979? I was having a great time.
There is a great scene with Bethenny and Alex waiting for the girls discussing Kelly and both go off into a fit of laughter. I find Alex’s laugh to be contagious.
i'd lmao! Mario, your correct! last night episode was way too funny! my two favorite moments! Alex and Bethany on the boat laughing like school girls! what a wonderful moment! Also,Ramona in full party mode! one question, why did we have to wait all season to see this???? I literally was in tears from laughing. Which my neighbor had to knock on my door to for me to quite it down.
I have to say, I'm happy Kelley provided us with the the entertainment! She was way too funny! So happy she came along! And what about the new girl?????? Something tells me she's going to provide us with a lot of entertainment. Jill and Lu Ann who?
All I have to say, Bravo......THANK YOU! this episode really made my night.
LOVE IT!
I agree with you. Kelly self-imploded and Jill is always the "trouble" link midst all the arguments. Jill and LuAnn seem to think they are "above the rest". No way!
Ramona planned an over the top trip and Kelly caused more trouble than even Kelly could handle. Kudos to Ramona for planning a wonderful experience for her friends.
You're funny! I didn't get what was wrong with 1979 either! And what was with that "encyclopedia" comment??? I don't know what Kelly does to support herself, but honestly, there is NO WAY she figured it out all by herself. Ramona is great. I like her more and more all the time. At first, I thought she was a little scary. You guys seem to make a great couple - congrats on a long-lasting happy marriage!
Mario,
Last season I felt a little annoyed and did not understand about your tennis arguments with Jill. Now I understand completely. You and Ramona seem to love life and are in love with each other that is great! Seeing Ramona tell everyone how hot she was for you was so sweet. I hope the two of you keep going strong and keep enjoying life. Hopefully after the breakdown this week Kelly will get help, that was sad. She has her girls to take care of. Jill has just been an annoying chatter box this season. I can't understand her behavior.
Mario, just get it over with and tell us how you REALLY feel, would ya???
Right on, right on, right on!
Ha! You've been riding the Ramona-coaster longer than anyone. It's great to see that your take on it was minimal drama! You've got to maintain a sense of humor to keep up with that crowd! Kudos!
lmao!
You are funny and Cute! Ramona is blessed to have you and you are blessed to have her! What a wonderful wife and mom she appears to be. (:
Mario my dear, you are the most enjoyable to read!!!!!
I think you have found another profitable calling.
Looking foward to reading your thaughts and takes again soon!!!!!
I completely agree with everything you said in your blog. Please blog every episode! Great job.
Mario, it is nice that you speak up in defense of Ramona. I like both of you alot. Congratulations on your wedding renewal. And you are right it was so nice not seeing Jill and her manipulations and backhanded compliments on this episode. I agree with you that Jill didn't go because it isn't all about her. I can't believe Kelly had to keep running inside to call her. How pathetic. Kelly doesn't hold a candle to the others but thinks she is above everyone. Hope to see more of you and Ramona in upcoming episodes. Can't wait to see the wedding renewal.
Mario, I really like you and Ramona...but I think you guys are making more out of Jill's absence on the trip than is warranted. I do wish she should have gone on the cruise, However, for her own personal reasons, which she stated, she chose not to go. She said she did not go because she did not want to bring anyone down. I can respect that, although things between her and the other women only grew more distant because of her unfortunate choice not to go. I am just not so convinced it was as selfish and evil as you make it seem.
Too bad Kelly didn't stay home...there is really something wrong with that girl. Yikes! And, between you and me, Luanne is about on the same level as Kelly, as far as I am concerned. It's just too bad Kelly didn't stay home and perhaps try to hire a security guard or something. Sheesh!
I hope these ladies can find it in them to be a little bit more tolerant of one another in future episodes. They are, in reality, very much alike in some ways. Their ability to speak their minds is a wonderful thing, unless the person they are speaking their mind about doesn't care to hear it. I wish ALL of them could just learn to leave the unsolicited personal observations and judgments of one another out of the script...it's not only Jill...it is ALL of them.
I do agree with you, it was awesome to see the ladies getting a buzz on and having a fun time dancing and laughing. Hopefully they find more time to enjoy one another in the future.
Mario,
I love you and Ramona. It so nice to see a happily married couple after so many years. Ramona is beautiful and I can't believe what a great body she has. She should write a diet book. I would love to know her routine and how she keeps so svelt. Keep blogging these woman are jealous.
I Really think Ramona needs to keep her I on you!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG, I think I just peed my pants. You're hilarious...
Mario you're right about that scene with Bethenny and Alex. I laughed so hard and it was nice to see Bethenny laugh a little. What is wrong with Kelly? Is she really that stupid. Ramona said that Jill was going to eat crow - and Kelly giggled and said "eat what...crow"...she had no idea what that meant. She has no idea about anything ...lemons into lemonade...crushing grapes into wine. Yet sometimes her vocabulary is dead on. She's too much.
Mario...why were you so obstreperous about apologizing to Luann?... (The "Countless" thing). You clearly hurt her feelings and in the midst of all she was going through...to mock her about it. It was in bad taste to say what you said... but then it became shameful and formidable to not apologize when you saw how it affected her. You condemn Kelly for what she said to Bethany in her vulnerable state and time of calamity. Is it not contradictory for you to pass judgement when you are guilty of doing something very similar? This really shows your character, or lack thereof. Is this how you treat women?
We thoroughly enjoyed that episode!!! Definitely the best one all season, and the most fun! When Ramona throws a party she REALLY throws a party (lol none of that mamby pamby skating around central park silliness)...
I find myself feeling a bit sorry for all the Jill fans though. It's got to be tough when the person you have picked to "like" acts like a complete jackass episode after episode. Not to mention, b-o-r-i-n-g! And how embarassing is it that you're on a team that includes Kelly? I'm seriously starting to think she should not be allowed to speak without an interpreter! (and who doesn't know what eating crow means? lemons into lemonaid? good grief)
Can't wait for Bethenny's new show, hope you and Ramona will both be on it!
Thanks for blogging, please keep 'em coming
MARIO I LOVE YOUR BLOGS!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE KEEP BLOGGING!!!!! YOU ARE HILARIOUS....and generally I agree with absolutely everything you write.
Mario...I love you and Ramona. Your blogs are terrific and keep them coming. It was so great not having Jill on last weeks episode. I didn't realize how much she really disturbs me. You and Romana have a wonderful relationship and a great kid!! Keep smiling!!
Ramona was absolutely adorable on the trip, and soooo funny. I hope I look like her when I get older, and that's the truth!! Her body is AMAZING. And Mario I love how you treat her, and how you two keep each other #1 without being dramatic and creepy (ala Jill)... hope you're on the show again soon! Great blog as well.
Mario, while I don't always agree with your and Ramona's judgment sometimes, as edited on RH, I think it's phenomenal that you two are still in love and seem to see eye to eye in business, in love, in life. You both seem to be honest with yourselves, each other, and the people around you, even if it means a bit of snubbing and being snubbed. Kudos to you both.
You're so right on point about everything in this post. The entire episode was hysterical.
You are awesome. I love your personality don't change. However, things will change with a new baby girl, your life will never be the same but it will be great!!
Mario, why are you blogging? You aren't a housewife, and anything you say, isn't objective, so you need to let the ladies handle all that drama and solve their problems and start acting like adults and treat each other with respect. The only lady that seems to try to stay above the drama is the new housewife. She trys to keep the peace. Kelley is simply trying to have fun without talking about someone behind their back. I find it interesting, that Betheny, Alex and Ramona all say they are not two faced, however, the first thing all of them do is to start talking about LuAnn and Jill behind their back on every possible occasion. So, they really need to check themselves before they start pointing fingers, and get over yourself Mario, you ain't all that. (I meant to say ain't too, so no correction is needed, thank you)!
Mario!
I feel soooooo bad for Ramona. She invited the girls on a great get away and crazy Kelly ruined it. I don't understand why she included her. hey I would have dropped her off at the airport right away. I think that would have taken care of that drama queen.
congratulations on your marriage vow renewal!
Mario - you crack me up! Love your two cents - how true!! keep blogging - love your comments!!!
I AGREE WITH YOU 100%!!
YOU ARE TOO FUNNY!!
You are one funny guy, you and Ramona are a very sweet couple. Cheers!
Well said Mario! There is not one thing you said that I would disagree with, even the fact that Jill must have been going to camera withdrawals after not getting many scenes in this last episode, I thought the same thing after watching it, thinking to myself "Jill has got to be horrified that she's hardly in this episode, and by the looks of it, she may not be in next weeks episode very much either.......... GOOD, we need a break from that EGO!
"I have often advised her to take swimming lessons but she’s convinced she can tread water if necessary until I come to the rescue."
How sweet! Glad you two still love each other so much!
Mario - my favorite scenes were Turtle Time and Alex and Bethenney laughing histerically. That was a true girlfriend moment :)
Ramona's jewelry is stunning as is she and Avery. Nice family!!!!
Mario, get over yourself. You seem to always think you are a perfect judge of who is bad or good. Neither of these women are perfect. You act like you are housewife also.
Mario,
Really enjoying Ramona this season. I guess you realize that she is a good mother and friend.I have to agree that without Jill and LuAnn, Thursday night,the show was much more enjoyable. Now if Kelly had only kept w/her initial instinct, not to go on the trip. The suits at BRAVO need to wake up to the fact that women do like to watch other women bond.
Best Wishes,and please don't tell me LuAnn sings at your
renewal ceremony.
love, love, love you and ramona. it seems to be a very balancing relationship for you both. this season is ridiculously dramatic and i agree it was a refreshing episode...could have done without kelly (not just on the vaca, but the entire season).
Treasure Ramona. She's a keeper, as you are for her.
You hit the nail on the head Mario. Let us not forget one thing that is missing when Jill is on an episode. That would be the comedic relief that is provided by her taste in clothing and jewelry.
There's no blog I look forward to read than yours Mario...you're straight to the pioint and in a way makes it humourous! I would say thank you for the naming (jillousy, countess), pse find one for Kelly too coz I hardly use the mean girls real names, Oh yeah I agree with you I think Jill was rolling on her couch as she missed on this episode coz she so media hungry!
Great synopsis Mario! Maybe you should tell LuAnn not to quit her day job in italian...oh, that's right...she doesn't work!
You know how to blog!! I am soooooo glad you see the real deal. I was sooooo happy to not see Jill in this episode and was shocked at Kelly's verbal attacks. I think she is doing something the show doesn't know about..
Thanks for keeping it real!!!
Great blog Mario. Horrifying episode. Throw Kelly off the boat.
And you are blogging why? Are you a housewife? I guess everyone needs a break from real life and you are after all married to Ramona. Interesting how you call it Ramona renewing 'her' vows. I think Ramona needs AA, if you are looking for a renewal gift for her.
LOL! Mario, you are so funny!! And so ACCURATE!!
Mario, you are always spot on with your observations! I agree on every point. I am surprised to notice how my smile vanishes whenever the subject of Jill comes up....I have NEVER seen anyone more self-centered in my entire life! How nice to not have to see her this week!
Kelly attacking poor Bethenny.....how much is one lady supposed to take?
Even when your wife is tipsy, she still tells other men how hot she is for you and how much she loves her husband. How lucky can you get?! May God continue to bless your family!
Mario, I agree.......fun episode w/o that mean girl JILL.......
Mario...I so agree that you nailed it...this was one of the best episodes this season....BECAUSE of all the laughter and fun!! Yes Kelly went off like a rocket but there had to be some drama didn't there? It was soooo nice that Jill, Jill, Jill and her "you have to leave" wasn't in this show!!! God if we hear that one more time! Ramona did pay you the highest compliment and I can't wait to see the show and the renewal vows. Should be another best episode of the season. Congrats to you and Ramona!! And I agree...Luann singing? Was that singing? Autotune heaven!
