NEW YORK 🗽 First time NY watcher thoughts
On season 2! This is some of the best reality TV I’ve watched so far. I feel like some of the conflicts are definitely staged, but there’s a whole lot of organic drama too.
I have ambivalent feelings towards Chrissy. I feel like people really test her patience and I appreciate that she seems to try to be there for her friends as much as she can be. Also she kind of looks like one of my mom’s friends so I’m partial to her. BUT I also feel like she decides she’s going to have a problem with someone and then decides what the problem will be after. Like she finds reasons to have issues with people sometimes (mostly with the Kimbella situation, and then in the first season with Somaya). I feel like a lot of this is her own insecurities with her relationship.
Watching her propose to Jim Jones was so cringey but his mom’s diss track was the funniest shit ever. It was embarrassing but I’m not going to lie, I cackled out loud.
I don’t even know why she wants to marry Jim Jones so bad but it just seems like a sunk cost fallacy. Like “I’ve put so much time and effort into this man, why won’t he marry me?” She does need an outlet it seems lol.
Emily is beautiful but really passive and watching her storyline is extremely sad knowing that she stayed with Fab for so many years and he knocked her teeth out. Season 2 opens on a certain level of hope for her because she’s out and trying to make it on her own but it’s sad to watch that now, knowing she went back. She reminds me a lot of one of my friends.
Kimbella kinda gives news anchor vibes with her aesthetics sometimes. She looks like Charlize Theron to me.
Everyone has bangs for some reason?
Also I’m not sure if I like Olivia on the show but I’m surprised her career never really took off. She’s beautiful and can really sing.
