Perhaps Bravo did not want viewer questions this time around for the Real Housewives of New York City Season 4 reunion. Or perhaps they scheduled the reunion around the original season premiere, before they pulled it and stuck the Real Housewives of Miami into it’s slot. Either way, fans were cheated with five episodes left in the season, but the reunion taped on June 20.
The official party line by Andy Cohen , when asked about this, was ‘we couldn’t find a date in July that was compatible for all’ He just returned from St. Tropez, Alex and Simon are in Egypt, the rest are probably in the Hamptons.
Excuse me, isn’t this a job?
We can assume the cast members; Jill Zarin, Alex McCord, Kelly Bensimon, Luann de Lesseps , Cindy Barshop, Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan, saw the episodes before they taped the reunion. But they couldn’t know viewer reaction, which guides the questioning by Andy Cohen .
The dueling “Sweet Sixteen’ parties, Simon van Kempen and his tweeting, Sonja Morgan’s bankruptcy, LuAnn de Lesseps ‘Ridiculist’ singing, Cindy Barshops’ inability to handle motherhood, Jill Zarin constantly throwing bricks while hiding her hand, not to mention the pregnancy test menopausal 55 year old Ramona Singer will perform on tonight’s’ finale episode.
A train wreck from beginning to end, this season. Almost unwatchable, even after Bravo edited and re-edited. Everyone, especially LuAnn, seemed to be struggling for relevance. . Alex and Simon were more desperate than usual. Perhaps the cast is just too large.
One of the more redeeming features in past seasons was the scenes of New York City, This season, with the exception of the trip to Marrakech, we got none of that.
We were robbed.

i’m sorry but i just had to say .. did you really add cindy on the list of people to keep? shes not entertaining. she’s sooo transparent and full of it. her and her weirdo brother need to stay off my tv screen, she should go back to bedazzling vaginas. and if kelly was so offended by Sonja’s she should have offered Cindy’s vag decorating services… thats what a REAL NICE friend would have done..
I used to LOVE the Real Housewives of New York when BETHENNY was on it. Bravo needs to rethink their Real Housewives’ series. Maybe Bethenny should help them.
Jill is such a BULLY, LuAnn is such SNOB, Kelly is an AIRHEAD. Maybe just keep Cindy, Ramona, Alex (minus Simon), Sonja (who cares if she is broke). These wives are funny and entertaining and we see their struggles.
If the housewives remain the same, I won’t be watching it because it’s a HUGH waste of time!!!!! Rethink it, Bravo!
The worse part of this is that I do not think even La Bethenny could have saved this season. Start from scratch Andy Pandy. LOL
Bravo needs to hire jay Mohr ASAP. I know he is only blogging about NJ, but from what i understand he watches all the versions. Give him a half hour show where he recaps the episode aired, and takes calls from viewers (or answers email/tweets/etc if he cannot be live). No stupid games, just beating up the shows.
Right now Jay is the only thing worth watching. I wish they would do the same for Bourdain and Top Chef.
I thought RHONY was a total snooze this season. The Countess can’t sing, Kelly is a ditz, Jill is still nasty and back-stabbing, Cindy is a bore, Ramona is annoying, Sonja is broke, and Alex makes the stupid facial expressions. Time for fresh blood.
What a disappointment this season. Let’s hope they can redeem themselves with Beverly Hills and then completely clean house in NY.
Worse than robbed…and cannot find the word for one who is robbed & afterwards the burglar leaves with a greater bank than what was taken. Even after watching Bravo and Andy implode over the past 4-5 months, left with the question ‘what part of your fanbase needs to be explained’?
