The reality TV duo talkWelcome toCrappie Lake, theRHONYreboot, and the appeal of low-stakes drama.
Together, they emit the endearing chaotic energy fans have come to expect from the reality TV duo.
But the pairs visit was not without its challenges.
I never leave the house without a bunch of panties in my bag.
You know, just in case, Morgan says.
With that intense Illinois heat during filming, I was up to panty number three by 11 a.m. We’re entertainers, de Lesseps says of their undeniable onscreen chemistry.
People need that right now.
Luann:Audiences just need a good laugh sometimes rather than intense drama all the time.
Even onHousewives, some of the best moments came from the silliest drama.
Sonja:Likewhen we put the vibrator in the chicken, and Ramona got mad at us.
[I would like to go] somewhere colder, like Alaska.
Sonja:I wouldnt mind Minnesota, but I like the idea of Texas.
Luann looks so good in a cowboy hat with her checkered Western shirt and cut-off shorts.
Theres just no way.
Luann:They definitely picked the rightRHONYgirls for this show.
People love us together fans are even comparing us to Laverne and Shirley.
Luann:Ramona Singer!
Shed be a nightmare asking people to carry her bags and complaining about the closet space.
Sonja:Ramona wouldturn around and get back on the plane.
Sonja:I loved when Luann fell in the bushes in Mexico in Season 9.
That entire trip was hilarious.
One day I woke up in somebody elses bathing suit wondering why it was so small.
Luann:That trip was a highlight for me, too.
I remember grabbing the margarita pitcher away from Sonja.
Luann:I was pleasantly surprised.
Theyre all beautiful and seem like theyre having fun.
No crazy fights… yet [Laughs].
Sonja:I didn’t get a chance to see it yet.
Sonja:Just keep it real.
That’s the best advice because you cannot fool the viewers.
They know when you’re not real friends.
They know when you’re bullsh*tters.
Theres actually a science to it.
But also grow together, like a family.
Luann:Tinsley Mortimer and Aviva Drescher could be good.
I think fans would want to see more of those OGs.
Sonja:Tinsley and Aviva would be great, and maybeJules Wainstein.
Luann:We could leave Carole Radziwill and Bethenny Frankel at home.
All they do is talk negatively aboutHousewives.
They dont respect the hand that feeds them.
Sonja:Thatsexactlyhow I feel.
