MiniCap: RHONYC


Gossip Slife here. Your one and only source for- wait a freakin’ minute!! This isn’t Gossip Girl! This is Real Housewives of NYC. And I’m not bBitz! WTF? It’s true, gasmii. That damn ginger decided to go on vacay, so I’m filling in this week. I’m guessing he went to Australia. I hear it’s very popular with redheads. (Winky face!) Anyhoo, I have some mayjah shoes to fill, and I’m not as good with the graphic pics, but I’ll still do my best to make you pee yourselves a little from laughing.

Where to start? How about with newbie Cindy? And I use the term “newbie” loosely…as loose as the sallow flesh hanging from her bones. She’s eleventy if she’s a day. And I’m pretty sure she’s a closet lez. Aside from how irresponsible it is to have kids at her age, I was horrified to watch her, her incestuous brother, and her babies’ daddy play with the twins. Is this what’s become of the modern family?!

Next up: Sonja. This bitch just cracks me up. She wears sporty knee high socks, commissioned a painting of herself, understands the importance of a pecking order, keeps a well-stocked stable of men whose names she can barely remember, and loves the gays almost as much as she loves herself. No wonder I identify so much with her. I AM HER! This week she decided to throw a FAB masquerade party. Hey, any excuse to play dress up, right? Unfortch, her party was small and cramped and lame. Except for the part where she realized she forgot half her costume at home and that her ass had been hanging out the entire time! LMAO.

And finally, the piece de resistance! An epic bantam weight division brawl between frenemies Jill and Ramona. You knew it was comin’! The tension had been brewing since Jill got back from Australia and promised to keep her fat, gossiping mouth shut. (Yeah, that didn’t last long at ALLLL.) Nothing like a party, some Pinot Grigio, and a bride bombshell to get the Ramona crazy train off and running. Now, while I’m not a fan of Miss Crazy Eyes, I kinda felt myself on “her side” of this ridiculous spat with Jill.

What did you think?? We’ll rip these loony tunes bitches a new one in the full recap. Stay tuned! And to check out the recap for last week’s show, click here.

 

SlifeGoesOn may be one of the newer recappers at TVgasm.com, but his love for television is older than he is!  He was exposed to endless hours of Charlie's Angels, DallasHart to Hart, and Remington Steele while still in his mother's womb, and it is no wonder that one of his earliest memories in life is of watching the epic fire that consumed La Mirage in Dynasty's sixth season finale.  He went through a troubled, awkward sci-fi phase in junior high, becoming obsessed with shows like Star Trek and The X-Files.  This paved the way to his love for Buffy The Vampire Slayer, perhaps one of the best written shows of all time.

 

 

Now a recovering ex-Trekkie, SlifeGoesOn opts for a wide array of programming, from highbrow, high concept fare, to trashy reality TV, where he makes his living as a senior story producer.  He was nominated for a Daytime Emmy in 2010 for his work on the second season of the Style network's number one-rated hit, Ruby.

 

 

His TVgasm recaps include the finely tawt thriller Damages, the campy, gothic True Blood, as well as the guilty pleasures that are Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars, and The Real Housewives of New York City.  He has also done a number of interviews, with celebrities such as Carolyn Hennesy from Cougar Town.  When not gabbing about television at the watercooler with co-workers, you can usually find SlifeGoesOn parked on the couch watching reruns of Sex & The City and reciting along with the dialogue.

    Maybe there is something wrong with me, but I don’t hate Ramona as much as everyone else. It’s Jill, LuAnn and Kelly that I really can’t stand. Actually, Sonja and Cindy are annoying too. Ramona is quickly becoming the only one I like.

    Ooops! Forgot Alex. It’s painful to watch her argue, but I still like her.

    I didn’t like Sonja in the first couple of episodes this season but even still – she is infinately preferable to the brunettes who I cannot stand.
    Sure, Ramona has no filter and will say exactly what she thinks – but she says it to your face *and* she does have ability to hear what other people have to say, process it, and then sincerely apologize for past behavior. Jill, Luann and Kelly are unable/unwilling to do any of that. They prefer to bitch behind backs and attack in groups. It’s like the Real HouseDingos for gods sake.

    Anyway – can’t wait for the full recap!

    Ramona should call her wine Pino Bitcho.

    I like Ramona this season, too. Sure she’s a bit over the top, but she is a lot more self aware than the brunettes. I feel like those girls are setting her up for the slaughter, and it’s not going to be pretty.

    The bride was kind of a bitch to bring up that crap at Ramona’s wine launch. She didn’t appreciate Jill ruining her big day with drama, but she ruins Ramona’s. Of course the countess is going to be all over that next week.

    Will someone PLEASE get Cindy an updated hair style? Good Lord. She doesn’t have a bad face, but that shaggy dog do makes her look like a mutt.

    It was great to see Chris Marsh!

    Great mini-recap Slife. Please write a full one! =D

    In this episode I could actually tolerate Jill and Kelly. Kelly is not as nuts as last season, and I like that. Now that being said, I think there is a new crazy bitch in town and thy name is Sonja. WTF is up with her lately. Telling Cindy that Ramona is a “star” and she should have Pinot Grigio available to her is fucking nuts. Bitch should have brought the hostell the shit she’s hawking. A new classic drinking game. Everytime you hear “Pinot Grigio” take a shot! You’ll be fucked up by the first commercial. And I like Cindy. She needed to put crazy ass in her place though. LuAnn is still a c***.

    I go back and forth with Sonja.
    She clearly thinks she’s Samantha from Sex and the City. But really, I don’t think she gets as much as she wants everyone to believe. And that makes her kind of sad, at least to me.

    Can we talk about Watch What Happens Live here?!
    Because Kelly was on it, and oh my lord…still crazy. I loved how Andy kept calling her Kelly Killoren, and at one point she blurts out BENSIMON!
    And then she said Bethenny’s career was “a testament to Bravo” and it shows that any one of them can have that kind of sucess.
    It was kind of amazing.

    BoredSilly – I love it. Then LuAnn can grill her about her name’s origin and Ramona can say she doesn’t want to discuss technicalities.

    Ollybeau, let’s not forget Simon’s epic performance! I loved how Cindy could not contain herself and was all but laughing in his face. He was awful..and his pants just screamed “leather daddy/latex slave.”

    In a way though, Kelly was right. If it wasn’t for Bravo, Bethenny would not have gotten as much publicity and her drink/books may not have reached such a wide audience. I mean, let’s face it, many people bought the product because they saw her on TV and liked her. So, in a way, Bravo should get some credit. I’m quite sure though, that they are also getting a piece of the pie. As they do on everything they advertise in the clubhouse. Ramona’s Pinot Grigio, and now even Snyder’s pretzels must have paid for a spot on last nights episode. I don’t think Bravo would let anyone, even the Housewives, get free publicity/advertising on their shows without giving Bravo a fee or percentage of the company.

    With that said, it was obvious Kelly was being petty. I’m surprised she didn’t look into the camera and yell, “You’re a cook, Bethenny. A cook, and it’s creepy!”

    I can go the rest of the season without seeing Sonja’s ass. It looks better in clothing. Also, regarding the wine fiasco, what most of the housewives are missing is that Ramona called Cindy and asked if she was going to have Pinot, otherwise she would bring her own. I’d be mighty pissed if my friend told me she would have Bailys and I showed up and she didn’t.

    Holy crap, Kelly was a royal bitch and, as always, a nut on WWHL! That was so low to claim everything that happened to Bethenney happened because of Bravo and couldn’t act adult enough to congratulate Bethenney. The difference with Bethenney’s success is that because she is so likeable on the shows people will buy her stuff. Who would buy something that Kelly, LuAnn, or Jill hocked?

    We have got to stop allowing Bravo to get these Housewives celebrities to sing songs…That performance by Simon was wretched. I don’t know which is worse – him or LuAnn.

    Did anyone else love Jill crying in the limo with LuAnn as much as I did? “Here, give hah this! I don’t want to give it to hah anymuah.” And then pulls out those chochkies from Australia. Please, bitch. How in the world does someone get so effed up in the head that they approach a bride at her own wedding to bitch about the guest list!? And how the hell does she pull the victim card on something like that? Really, Jill. Holy shit.

    I’m digging seeing the preview of next week’s episode with Ramona telling LuAnn to stop involving herself in stuff. I wonder why it takes everyone so long to say these things? Maybe it’s the pecking order…

    hmmm.. am I the only one that thinks that Kevin (the father of cindy’s twins) has had a sexual relationship with both Cindy and Howie (her brother)? I felt that right off – when she said Howie and Kevin used to be close but now its weird howie will leave when Kevin comes over, than she said – Kevin and I have a complicated relationship we were together than we were not together – I immediately thought – those times you were not together he was with howie. is it only me? LOL probably! :)

    Rebecca, you may be on to something! One thing I did pick up on, is that Kevin definitely plays for the other team. Pitcher or catcher, I don’t know. But homeboy is definitely gay. I would have respected Cindy a lot more had she come out and said that she and Kevin were the new Will and Grace. What single, financially stable woman wouldn’t choose to raise children with her best friend if it looks like marriage isn’t in her future?
    Don’t try to fool us into thinking Kevin was ever into you, Cindy. He probably only agreed to father your children because IVF doesn’t require seeing you naked.

    Maybe, Kevin and Howie used to date and Cindy became good friends with Kevin (often joining them for date night, and what not) and eventually asked Kevin to donate sperm for her IVF treatments. Maybe she didn’t want an anonymous donor. But then Howie got jealous because he couldn’t be the father (two headed babies are so gauche), and it soured his relationship with Kevin.

    I love conspiracy theories! :D

    @Rebecca – I thought the same thing! You could feel the sexual tension between Howie and Kevin the instant Kevin walked in. Besides, who is Howie trying to fool? My gaydar went off the first time he made an appearance on this show.

    I don’t like Howie and his horse teeth one bit. Yeah, I def think there’s a back story to Cindy and her babies. Wonder if Ramoner knows the truth. Speaking of Ramoner….I was on another site (sorry Flipit)and there was speculation about why Jill felt, “She did it to me again.” What DID Ramona do at the wine party besides approach Jill about being a two-faced liar? They suggested Jill thought Jennifer and Ramona had conspired to trap Jill in her lie. And, that the tears in the limo with LuMan were big crocodile tears. Wondering what others take on that was.

    @ Ollybeau, I think you are right. And if Sonja thinks she is Samantha from Sex and the City and Assley (Jacqui’s daughter from the Real Housewives of New Jersey) thinks she’s Carrie Bradshaw, we can do a whole ‘Sex and the City’ remake. I think Alex probably assumes she is Miranda (educated, small boy child, living in Brooklyn) and I think Luann sees herself as Charlotte. Jill and Kelly are on a totally different show altogether.

    ‘The Twilight Zone’ for Kelley and ‘Jill Zarin; The Fabulous Connecter’ starring Jill Zarin. (You may not be familiar with it because it only airs in her head 7 days a week).
