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.

Luann shows off her new home at an informal housewarming party, where long simmering tensions resurface; Dorinda and Sonja finally meet each other at Ramona's house; Carole flirts with Luann's young personal chef.

Luann, Carole, Kristen and Heather decide to be diplomatic, attending both Bethenny's and Ramona's brunches; when the women show up late to Ramona's brunch, Dorinda and Sonja are on their way out; Ramona and Luann have a heart-to-heart about Mario.

After a wild night, Carole catches up with Heather at the High Line to discuss her dating life; Sonja and Luann show up with much younger dates when Bethenny throws herself a last-minute birthday dinner; Ramona flirts with her business partner.

After being warned about Sonja's questionable business aspirations, Bethenny has lunch with her to see for herself if the other women have a point; Dorinda hosts a cocktail party for all the ladies and their men.
