Buckle Up, Buttercup: Where to Stream RHONY
First things first: where to find this glorious trash-talking treasure trove? Here's the lowdown:
BravoTV.com: The network that brought us this masterpiece offers the latest seasons (with a cable subscription, boo hiss). You can also catch clips, behind-the-scenes extras, and maybe even Ramona Singer's skincare routine (questionable at best, but hey, content is content!)
hayu: This subscription service is basically Netflix for reality TV, and guess what? It's got all 13 seasons of RHONY waiting for you. Plus, you get access to other Bravo shows like Vanderpump Rules and Below Deck, so it's a win-win for any self-respecting reality TV addict.
Prime Video: Some seasons of RHONY are available for purchase on Prime Video. Perfect if you just want to catch up on a specific season or relive the glory of Countess Luann's cabaret tour.
Pro Tip: Keep an eye out for free trials on these services! You might be able to get your Bethenny Frankel fix completely free.
But Wait, There's More! A Guide to the Seasons
With 13 seasons under its sequined belt, RHONY offers a wild ride through the ever-changing social landscape of New York City. Here's a (slightly) sarcastic breakdown of some iconic seasons:
QuickTip: Let each idea sink in before moving on.
- Seasons 1-3: The OG crew sets the bar high with fights over charity galas, drunken escapades in St. Barth's, and the birth of countless memes (who can forget Kelly Bensimon's "mention it all?").
- Seasons 4-7: Enter Bethenny Frankel, the queen of one-liners and Skinnygirl margaritas. Drama gets a serious upgrade, and we witness the rise and fall of some truly unforgettable characters (cough, Jill Zarin, cough).
- Seasons 8-11: New faces join the mix, but the core group (minus Bethenny, sadly) keeps the drama simmering. Think vacations from hell, questionable business ventures, and of course, Ramona's ever-evolving vocabulary.
- Seasons 12-13: The cast gets a major shakeup, and the show takes on a slightly different feel. Will it recapture the magic of the early seasons? You be the judge (but seriously, give it a shot, it's still entertaining AF).
Remember: This is just a taste. Dive in and discover your own favorite moments!
