‘Real Housewives of New York City’ Reunion Recap: Everyone Turns Their Back On Aviva Drescher



Hollywoodlife.com:
On the Oct. 8 reunion special of The Real Housewives of New York City, the ladies appropriately meet up at The Museum of American Finance with none other than sexpot Andy Cohen. I hate to say it, but Andy was literally the most entertaining factor of the night.

Andy begins by digging into Carole Radziwill, questioning her ongoing frustrations with LuAnn de Lesseps — the “one upper.” After a package, showcasing prime examples, Carole and LuAnn spend 20 minutes — yes, 20 minutes — arguing over dresses and who borrows their clothes.

Here’s a lesson for Bravo. It may be a good idea not to pair RHONY with RHONJ next year. After last night’s explosive feud among Jersey’s finest, this was certainly a snoozefest.

Next, the topic changes to Aviva Drescher’s ex-husband, Harry Dubin, who also dated Sonja Morgan — and may or may not have slept with the Countess. Aviva admits that it hurts her to know that a number of the ladies have dated or slept with her ex. Sonja rips her a new one by accusing Aviva of talking poorly about Harry to the press, on her blog and via Twitter. In Sonja’s eyes, if Aviva is allowed to talk about him in that amount of excess, than the ladies should have free reign to speak about him as well. Aviva suggests they all keep talks of their ex-husbands and legal matters away from the cameras. (Isn’t that the point of this show? You signed up to reveal your lives to the world — not hide them. Duh!)

Andy, making sure not to remove the focus from Aviva, brings up her MANY phobias — with another snazzy little package! (That excitement was definitely sarcastic.) Of course, Aviva says that she’s perfectly normal for a 6-year-old who had their leg twisted around and around in a machine for three hours until it was completely gnawed off. As Aviva finishes her story, she’s brought to tears, but Ramona Singer couldn’t give a rats ass because she was busy rolling her eyes!

Ramona and Heather Thomson’s season-long squabble was brought to light towards the end of tonight’s reunion special. They both agreed that they didn’t like one another at the beginning of the season, but now have a good rapport with one another. Will they ever be best buddies? I doubt it.

Focus rounds back to Aviva and how she called Sonja and Ramona “white trash” in St. Barth’s. She attempts to, once again, apologize for her words, but at this point, no one’s buying it — not even the viewers. Surprisingly, Heather and Carole side with the other ladies and agree it was a very “dark” period for Aviva. Aviva’s apologies are always followed by more tongue lashing, so Sonja doesn’t trust a word that comes out of her mouth. Even her apologies were followed by sly smiles during her confessionals. This disagreement leads to an escalation of emotions and a perfect segway into next week!

  1. Last nights reunion was a bit boring, but I enjoyed Carol giving it to LuAnne,it was actually nice to see some of the ladies not putting up with LuAnnes crap. I don't like LuAnne I especially don't like Ramona nor Sonja, but Heather,now she's really cool,and looks to be a good friend,she is by far,hands down the true meaning of class,love her!

  2. The reunion was great. It wasn't as high strung as rhnj, but it was almost a comic relief. We needed something a little more light-hearted after all the high- intensity drama. I think it covered the right amount of controversial issues among the ladies. Can't wait till next week.

  3. The so called "snoozefest" of last night was ten times better than the insane craziness of the RHONJ reunion. Jersey housewives is just getting ridiculous... although it may be entertaining to watch, it's uncomfortable to watch families feuding on national TV.

    And Teresa Guidice is awful. She needs to take Wendy Williams' advice, and leave reality TV. Save your family!

  4. I liked the reunion too. It's hard to handle the amount of delusion going on in the Jersey reunion. Teresa was so childish on part two it was hard to watch. And it was just sad watching her sit next to Juicy while he obviously lied through his teeth about cheating on her. You can tell by her body language she knows he cheats, she's just so worried about not being perceived as desirable and perfect by the public that she puts up with him. It's beyond sad and hard to watch.

  5. Poor aviva she really is above white trash sonja and ramona and just dosent understand this class of people and so she comes off as snooty. As for teresa how sad and pathetic that she tried to have sex in the vineyard after catching her husband with a girlfriend on the phone and he kept rejecting her. Sad moment. Bravo lose the giudice family they are white trash.

  7. At least this reunion was civil and entertaining to watch. The contrast with RHONJ was night and day. ALL the Jersey housewives should feel ashamed and embarrassed by their behavior, that really was a classless spectacle.

  8. I agree about Aviva's father, he is just plain creepy..... don't you just love how Heather stated she was so tired of seeing all of Sonja's private parts in St. Bart's (evidently Sonja does not wear underwear) and Sonja acts all puritanical around Aviva's father in Miami!
