Oh you infidels!
In the first cringe-worthy episode of the Real Housewives of New York filmed in Marrakech, Morocco, we get ‘treated’ to Ramona’s hormonal bursts of wisdom, “Lady’ Sonja Morgan’s bankruptcy blues, Jill Zarin ‘s familiarity not only Brad, her gay ex-assistant, but one of her relatives commonly known as a snake, and Cindy Barshop’s ‘hanger-gate”. The only one with any sense of decorum is Alex McCord, who gets very little screen time because of it.
LuAnn de Lesseps, Cindy, Kelly Bensimon, and Jill leave New York first, Sonja Morgan has to go to court to file for bankruptcy the day they are to leave, so Alex and Ramona take a later flight out with her. To be fair, Bravo did not show the first group riding in from the airport. But Ramona Singer, after she slaps a producer during filming, got a new, uglier edit. Can’t blame Bravo. Sonja, seen going over her bankruptcy papers on the plane, must not be as well travelled as she claims. So the two of them say awful, elitist, things on the ride in from the airport, while Alex sits between them, mortified.
Ramona apparently never looked out the window when driving in from JFK or LaGuardia Airports.
Sonja and the constant sexual references, neither cute nor sexy. She must be peri-menopausal, what woman travels without feminine hygiene products? Who mentions tampons on national television! The no underwear thing…just gross.
Can you imagine what the dress designer said about them to his friends and family? Ramona Singer can never just accept anything gracefully, she has to insert that rather obnoxious foot into that arrogant mouth.. every time. Yes, as Bethenny Frankel said on her recent Watch What Happens, Live! Mario has a lot to put up with (hint, hint?)
Bitch, if you don’t like the dress, don’t wear it. It’s not like she’s paying for it. Loved the way Alex got both Ramona and Sonja by going to get the firewood, but they looked down on her for getting it.
Brad’s party..of course Jill had to tell us Brad was staying at a bed and breakfast, was just a mess of uncouth, drunk Americans talking over each other and making fools of themselves.
Jill looked very comfortable with the snake wrapped around her head, just sayin’.
The fortune teller, broke-ass Sonja, too talkative Jill, Kelly getting another baby….another woman in Mario’s life, all quite pedestrian and predictable, after all who renews vows at 17 years, or tells everyone how happy her marriage is 24/7 ?
What Next?

Real Housewives of NY Cindy Barshop speaks her mind and tells them all where to stick it. That scene with the clothes hangers happened probably because the maid took the hangers from her room. The pecking order bull corn from Sonja was no way to welcome a newcomer, and Sonja don’t let me hear tell of you donating any clothes you have worn WITHOUT underwear (panties) uck!
You made very good points. I had almost forgotten that Ramona reportedly slapped a Bravo employee. She’s always had a big mouth and no filter, but she does seem particularly obnoxious this year. I guess they aren’t being too careful about how they edit her.
Alex was the only one on this episode who acted like a mature human being. The “brunettes” were catty and talking about the “blondes” the minute they arrived. As for blondes Sonja and Ramona, they look like sloppy, elitist lushes.
