I am desperate to find something to watch on TV or to download online, but not desperate enough to stoop so low as to start watching crap like this. I have to admit I've watched every episode of the Kardashians and have only started being bored since the last 3 seasons (it really feels too scripted and everyone's in a bad place) but this show (The New (aka Fake) Housewives of Miami) is terrible. It is wonderful to see Miami in a TV show but the characters are all negative and just suck the spirit out of you... I understand the reviewer before me that wants Bravo off his cable cause his mother is becoming a bitch. These kinds of TV show are made to make people feel terrible about themselves focusing on problems constantly. Why waste your time watching a bunch of FREAKS with too much money, getting and giving plastic surgery to their maids (!?!?). I guess this trend to bring people down into the depths of depression and near suicide is good for the pharmaceutical companies which have their tentacles in every part of society. You who is reading this are better than this. Just stop watching this crap and read a book, go for a walk, anything is better than this pathetic excuse for entertainment. I hopefully will find something good on TV one day but this is definitely not worth another minute of my life.

My mom has watched this everyday and I can tell that she is becoming more mean and she interrupts people and then does not want to hear what anyone else has to say. My mom picks our family apart on everything and can not pull herself away from the TV... she is addicted to this show....I don't know what to do. I feel like she has lost her soul. The shallow world view in the show makes her think that this is what life is all about. Drinking, picking others apart, and fashion and pretty things. I am pleading with my dad to remove BRAVO from the house because these housewives should not be aloud in the house they are not worth any sane persons time. 5 thing my mom could do but does not anymore:1. read 2. art 3. show any interest in her dog or horse 4. try new things 5. complement people (instead she wants all the complements and she picks on everyone else)

In this reality series, we are introduced to six Miami housewives featuring Lea Black (the mother figure or unofficial leader) whose husband is a famous defense attorney. They have one son and live in beautiful Coral Gables. She is perhaps the only non-Hispanic in this group. There is Marysol Patton who runs a Public Relations firm and handles big clients. She is the one with the lips and her mother has the same lips who it's hereditary. Her mother cracks me up as she sits there drinking wine and talking to her daughter. Larsa is married to Scotty Pippen, a retired Chicago Bulls basketball player, with four children. Adriana is an art gallery own with a son from a previous marriage and is engaged to Frederick. Adriana is Brazilian and well-educated. Cristy Rice was married and now divorced. I dislike her most of all because she thinks she's all that but she's not. Alexia is Cuban American who had the pig roast which I had to turn away from. I'm forgetting somebody of course since they are six. Oh well, this show follows the same format as all the other housewives show do. They show the wealthiest housewives who have charities, nannies, and servants themselves. I wanted to watch it because I wanted to see what life is really like in Miami, Florida. It's beautiful, water, and weather and great if you're wealthy too.
