The Real Housewives of Melbourne

Well, I just finished binge-watching the entire season and I found it quite addicting. It was fun to see them going from one fabulous setting to another and, while their outfits were often "over the top", they were fun to see. I also think that all women were far more real and down to earth than any Housewives in the US shows.

This is the way the original Housewives franchises were, full of glitz and silly quarrels - now we've got marginal women at best, obnoxious behaviors and sordid story lines. After all, these shows are not to be taken seriously - it's all for entertainment.

I hope it comes back for a second season ... if not, I wish each woman the very best luck.

This version of supposedly "real" housewives of everywhere is as bad as the rest of the series!

I really don't know why people don't realize these shows are cheap to produce and can be canceled at very short notice if the ratings aren't good enough! There is NOTHING real about these people! I don't know anyone in Australia who plasters on makeup and has to get a fake tan especially people with money!! Not to forget their outfits look like disco balls!

I won't even mention the ridiculous fake stories they are trying to sell us as "real" or the discourse between these pretend people!

Until people stop watching garbage like this quality shows will be far and few between!!

If someone was to negatively review this show, then they must seriously consider why they care so much as to bash it. I personally am able to see this series for what it is, and that is pure entertainment at it's near best! The construction is crafted at near perfection with the editing of interstitial and personal interviews. But what I love best about this program is that it takes me on a journey through the lives of truly interesting women on the other side of the planet going about their lives in extraordinary fashion. I WANT to visit Melbourne based on how it is shown here. I feel that Melbourne could be described as a contemporary version of San Francisco, only 'down under'. And who knew, amongst Americans, that there was a ski resort in Australia? I certainly didn't. And who knew that the fashion equivalent of Rodeo Drive actually does exist south of the equator? Love, love, love this unique perspective of privileged life in the city of Melbourne, and hope that it continues on for many more seasons to come. YOU GO GIRLS!!! shine, shine, SHINE!

The Real Housewives of Melbourne is the best. I have watched many of the other shows from the franchise - Beverley Hills, Aukland, Sydney, South Africa, Cheshire and Salt Lake to name but a few.

It has a lot of heart and a lot of heat, in spades. The delusional attitudes of some, the shocking behaviour of others. The over the top parties, the "girls trips abroad" and dinner parties are simply fantastic reality TV gold!

You can watch it once and be on one person side, and watch it a year later and have a completely different opinion. Re-watchability value? 10/10.

It has some of the best one liners, put downs and camp silliness.

Trust me.

I'm not sure if anyone but myself realizes that "bad means good" in terms of what you want from a reality show. The more vapid, the better, when it comes to Real Housewives...and Melbourne is my favourite by FAR. Yes, that's the Queen's English.

The only thing wrong with this show is that it has only just now been syndicated in Canada, and we've only been able to watch the first few episodes of Season 1.

They admit to kinky sex, being spoiled, being eccentric, being filthy rich...so great! My ultimate reason to love it so far is that they use the "c-word"...and then call each other on how offensive it is! These bee-otches don't mess around and its refreshing compared to the ongoing popularity contest I see in the other instalments.

Dear Slice TV: Please please please play all the seasons back to back until we catch up! A marathon never hurt anyone. ;)
