The characters on The Real Housewives of New York City are being very mixed up in this 3rd iteration of this version of the Bravo Housewives Franchise.Somehow, formerly creepy and deluded couple, Alex McCord and husband Simon Van Kempen, have become the sane voices of reason. And they're likable.
While formerly likable, Jill Zarin, has turned into a raging nutcase fixated on the crime against humanity her former best friend Bethenny Frankel committed when Bethenny left a voice mail on Jill's phone suggesting that Jill get a hobby.
On and on Jill goes about Bethenny's hobby remark. Keeping the message for months, playing it for anyone willing to listen, including a psychic, who Jill consults regarding the horror foisted upon her by Bethenny.
To me, Jill comes off as a big bundle of jealous. Bethenny's finally found herself another keeper, named Jason, her various business efforts are taking off, she's about to get her own TV show. So, Jill has moved on to "taking care" of the Countess who lost her count and now spends her days seeking an apology from Ramona's husband, Mario, because Mario committed the horrible crime against humanity of referring to LuAnn as Countless.
Which seemed to me to be a perfectly fair little bit of wordplay.
And then there is Kelly, Bethenny's arch enemy, and now one of Jill's dearest friends. Kelly seems a bit more likable this time around, maybe it's due to her suffering a bit of humility due to spending time dealing with the criminal justice system.
Jill visited Kelly's apartment for the first time. That all seemed awkward to me. On and on Jill went about how Kelly had been misinformed about what was special about the issue of Playboy Kelly is not baring her cha-chas in. I don't know what a cha-cha is. I can guess, but I'm not sure.
Strange conversations about the Playboy posing between Kelly and her daughters, one of whom characterized it as being something like her mom's gift to the world, entertaining people with her weirdness.
Meanwhile, Countless LuAnn and daughter Victoria drive along with LuAnn often not having a hand on the steering wheel, chatting about Kelly taking it off in Playboy. I think it was from Victoria we heard the Cha-Cha concern. LuAnn would consider it if Playboy asked her to take her clothes off, seeing nothing wrong with a little breast baring, what with LuAnn being so European, despite being a Native American.
Next week looks fun, with Bethenny yelling at LuAnn and Ramona aggravating Kelly. What a fun group of girls.
