Bravo heads to the Big Apple for this entry in its hit reality-TV franchise. This New York edition features several confident women, who change throughout the seasons as the women leave, with some returning later on. The featured ladies over time have included entrepreneur and one-time talk-show host Bethenny Frankel, part-time socialite and full-time mother Aviva Drescher (who is a cousin, by marriage, of actress Fran Drescher), best-selling author and journalist Carole Radziwill, savvy businesswoman Heather Thomson, entrepreneur Ramona Singer, sassy single mother Sonja Morgan and model Kristen Taekman.

Aviva decides she needs a break from the group; Heather and Luanne are slated to sing at a jazz bar, but Luanne backs out; Kristen cooks for Josh, but he arrives late and they argue.

Carole celebrates her birthday with an extravagant party; Ramona and Mario prepare to send their daughter to college; Kristen and Josh try to put their marriage back on track; Sonja receives a gift from Aviva's ex.

Sonja confronts Harry and LuAnn about their alleged night together; Kristen pulls some strings to get a modeling job; Aviva returns to the group, causing insults and accusations to fly.

With no place to call home, Bethany tries to find where she belongs; Luann invites all the women to join her for a weekend at her new home; Ramona copes with her separation from Mario; Ramona's friend Dorinda finds herself living separate lives.
