The Real Housewives of New York

[sexercise]

I think they’re more likely to bring back old cast members instead of outright cancelling it. But then again, this whole situation is so embarrassing that I could see them wanting to pretend it never happened. I think they’re better off ending it at this point because they’ll never recreate that magic again.

Andy was asked about the new season and couldn’t even fake a decent response. Said they’re all very fashion forward and argue over silly things.

I’ll probably watch it at some point but I genuinely think it’ll be a PR disaster, ratings wise. Fan reactions will be overwhelmingly negative too which will make it all seem way worse and dramatic in traditional housewives fashion nn.

The fans dragging it will be the last piece of entertainment we get from this franchise so I can’t wait for it. I feel bad for all the cast member who signed up for a profile boost nn. Bravo did them dirty.

It’s the fact that at this point it’s been over two years since they filmed season 13 so they could’ve just done a mini Miami.

I am so bummed out.

What if your favorite show died Andy?

Idk why but "rescinded offers via email at 6pm" is sending me, not the NBC execs being so terrified of Dorinda they waited until the end of the working day to press send on that email!

The original offer from NBC to the women:

I wonder if it's true that they'd only guarantee them 4 episodes each? They must be filming a 6 - 8 episode season if that's the case.

A mini series for these icons? Terrible treatment.

I thought it was officially stated it’ll be a shorter show and not a regular full season? My guess is 8-10 episodes. The low guarantee could be so they have an out to demote someone if they don’t perform.

Yeah, with only 5 girls it's gonna be hard to demote anyone though dd. If the cast is really just Dorinda, Sonja, Lu, Jill, and Kelly, they all need to deliver.

 

[1991]

The whole thing sounds like a bust. I'd rather just cancel it if they can't be bothered to dip into their pockets and flesh this out properly.

 

[sesita]

I'm gonna go ahead and say it, knowing that neither Ramona and Bethenny are going to be on it, I wouldn't mind having Holla back. I doubt she's asking for that much money and something tells me Kelly would bring out the Deck Me Mawma in her.

Only five cast members and reduced episode numbers?

I don’t know how they are fucking this up when they have a strong roaster of ex wives and current ones. Like what is happening here?

 

[tylerc]

Also if its so few episodes, fly in Her Royal Hiveness to gag Luanna who clearly still hates her guts and for the kii of her and Dorinda in the same room.

This is the mistake I think Bravo is making. It feels obvious to me that people would be willing to give the new flop RHONY a chance if we knew that Legacy was coming, too. But when the feeling is that our OGs have been kicked to the curb, low-balled, and potentially entirely scraped... why on earth would we want to support the new iteration?

The approach on all this is definitely doing them no favours. I always felt they were just giving the OG NYC a backdoor cancellation and trying to use Legacy to smokescreen it but this all feeling so up in the air will absolutely impact the NYC reboot.

Viewers would be a lot more charitable if they thought Legacy was 100% happening.

They went into this treating it as a consolation prize, and that's what it feels like. Like they're throwing a bone to the fans and the women... as long as the bone isn't too expensive! At this point they'd be better off doing an UGT: RHONY series. Give us two 8-episode seasons each year with slightly rotating casts (keep Dorinda, Lu, Sonja and Jill as the main girls each season with 2 others rotating). It'd be easier to get certain cast members to return if they know it's for a limited filming schedule.

Sonja

Season 2: Berkshires (filmed in early December)
