I think I might be able to watch online. Do you watch them all? Which one do you think I should try first?

I watch NJ and NY. I like NJ the most although God knows why. There really is not one person on either show that I would ever want to be friends with or related to.
I find the whole Guidice family to be entertaining but not necessarily in a good way. I did actually feel bad for Joe, but man, the things he said to Theresa were nasty.
As for NY, those woman have no class, especially Sonya.
Yup, I love these shows!

I occasionally watch Beverly Hills. Don't think I could handle more than one of these shows. Question: what is your opinion in terms of how scripted they are? Plotlines in advance? Who do you like and dislike on BH?

I definitely feel they are scripted. New Jersery was a fun season. Theresa had a lot on her plate with Joe but she is so blind with her friendships and mean
New York will not be the same without Bethany. Sonia just makes me laugh. Dorinda is hilarious too as well as neurotic. LuAnne is just narcissistic
Beverley Hills I love Lisa Rinna. She makes me laugh Erika Jayne is just amazing. I would have loved to have seen her in Chicago playing Roxie Hart.

A classmate of my husband was on the Real Housewives of Toronto. I think she was doing the show just to promote herself and the causes she is involved in. We were both shocked that she would stoop so low to get herself involved in such tacky scenes. We didn't watch it (we didn't have access to where it aired) but I imagine it was just as tacky and classless as the other shows. I saw promos with her in it though.

Housewives of Toronto and Vancouver sucked. I didn’t like them at all.

Sort of off topic, the wife of an ex-colleague of my husband is a TV show director. One of the shows she directed a few seasons of was Love it or List it. In that show, they do renovations on a house, hoping to get the homeowners to decide to stay, instead of sell. In every low-budget renovation they do, there is always an unexpected problem that comes up that threatens the budget and timeline to complete. I asked her, what happens if there actually isn't a problem like that, and she said, then they INVENT one... they cause a water leak or something. Also, in the scenes where an agent takes them to look at houses, they are instructed very specifically where to stand when they enter a room, and they're encouraged to find negative things to say about the house. So I can only imagine on the set of Real Housewives, how much fake drama they have to inject into the show, how much they have to encourage the participants to be as outrageous and trashy as they can.

I used to watch "Love It Or List It" in the early years but soon got fed up with the formula and Hilary Farr's insufferable personality.

I heard that too Lil Fan. We have the Vancouver version and a few colleagues were on and they said the same thing. PS the Vancouver version is actually pretty good.
Off topic the Property Brothers are local boys that have made it big.

That's great that the Property Brothers are so successful!
Back to the original topic... I haven't watched any Real Housewives yet. Last night I had some downtime, and I watched 3 episodes of a Spanish language show.

Unfortunately, the Housewives of MY bad a bit too much reality and Joe and Theresa ended up in jail and he's been deported. I have the feeling none of that would have happened were it not for the tv show.
I don't know why anyone would want to be on these shows. Rarely is anyone shown in a good light and since it is being presented as reality damage is done to their reputation s.

Wasn't Eileen Davidson on one of those shows?

YRDiva, I'm surprised you haven't asked which Toronto Housewife was my husband's classmate. It was the one with the 8 kids married to the plastic surgeon.
