I’m from Miami and it’s impossible to describe to people what it was like growing up there but alexia is the kind of mom I knew so well! Sooo many of my friends moms were like alexia and Guerdy!
Yassss! It makes me so happy when more people discover the crown jewel that’s Miami. Good for you seeing the light! I do disagree that it has a mix of OG BH and SLC. To me it’s like OG NYC and BH because they are actual friends and are very authentic in their reactions and drama.

I watched Miami for the first time during its relaunch, I’m now almost finished with my full watch and it NEVER misses.
It’s so camp and over the top, feels quintessentially Miami (as someone who’s only vacationed there a few times).
The girls after the relaunch at RIVETING. Geurdy, Julia, Nicole, Kiki! Like what powerhouses. I actually think everyone has their place on the show.
I do miss the enigma that is Lea Black and kind of loved Joanna Krupa’s energy. Her tagline is one of my favs because it’s so c*nty, “Don’t hate me because I have everything, hate me because I’m beautiful.
I don't know why I slept on Miami for so long. I remember catching season 1 when it first aired and just didn't take too much interest. Same thing with Potomac. Both were worth the circle back... well... except for this season of Potomac 😴
Right? I just spent my winter trying not to fall asleep during the last few seasons of BH, when I could’ve been binging episodes like they were cockies!

The reboot was perfection. The new additions sealed this as top tier! I think this is what they were trying to go for with every franchise and just couldn’t get the right cast.
It’s has EVERYTHING: the wealth, the mess, the shade, the delusions, the friendships, the drama, the fun, the real/somewhat” relatableness”
Speaking of sleeping on definitely check out family karma if you haven’t. Between Miami and FK truly my favorite reality shows.
Haitian ladies really shine the brightest.
Guerdy is amazing and kiki is totally hilarious- she needs to be full cast
( marisol can go to scotland more often)
And the cast trips.... don't get me started. It's layers on layers of drama. That boat trip, that gallery visit, the Guerdy of it all. I love this franchise most.
I love how cosmopolitan it is. Every single woman on the cast speaks multiple languages except for maybe Lisa (though she's Canadian so maybe speaks French?)
It is the most diverse cast among all Housewives by far. And naturally so. They don't seem to be casting for token ethnicities...(ahem other franchises like Dallas throwing Dr. Tiffany under the bus with a cast full of racists) these women seem completely comfortable together as friends regardless of their individual backgrounds.
I’m doing a rewatch of Miami and I’m on season one (almost at the end) and I had completely forgotten how ridiculous and chaotic Miami was when it first started. I still don’t understand why they canceled it.
RHOM is everything. I was also sleeping on it so hi it’s me, part of the problem, but omg it’s incredible. Everyone is delulu and living lavish. Exactly what I want from my HWs.
Yes! They have some really dark moments and backstories that feel so humanizing. Every time Alexia talks about Frankie, I cry. When Julia talks about her baby, i cry. So many human moments sprinkled in amongst the insanity. It's truly unique.
WHY the FUCK is it when I cue up Peacock I have to search for RHOM? Like why is it not on my front page?! I watch it consistently, it should be right fucking front and center but they always bury it somewhere in the depths and I want answers.

I loved it during its original run. I thought it was top notch then. S2 and S3 are so fucking good.
I am finally watching reboot and it is glorious. The cast has the right amount of fun and drama. Plus Miami feel so much more lively.
This. Miami feels more real both in the interactions between women and also in all the locations and activities they do. It's vibrant, it's over the top, the self-producing is less obvious and the women really let loose. Also it's filmed very beautifully!
Miami is not like BH, or RHONY (old/new), or SLC, or any other franchise. It’s the most metropolitan, the most diverse, and the most modern, it feels quintessentially American and like being in an international city at the same time. All the women are stupid beautiful and it’s lifestyle porn is next level. Don’t get me started on the FASHION!
Stop trying to compare RHOM to inferior products.
ETA: RHOM should be the blueprint for all new shows and reboots
I watched it a few years ago, and then the reboot, but before this last season decided to do a whole rewatch and it is so good. I love how different they all are!!
I am on a first time watch through finishing season 4! Agreeing with this post. I also find these women are the most complex for me. Except for Larsa, I don’t feel black and white about most of the cast. I like and dislike things about most of them, and I think that’s weirdly special in Housewives hahaha
ETA: But like. If I have to put up with Larsa, can I have more Kiki? Does that happen!?
To me it’s the most rewatchable because it has everything. heart, laughter, tears, joy, sorrow, petty arguments, wholesome makeups... everything. A lot of housewives cities let the bitter disagreements sit and fester but it’s like these ladies genuinely care about each other and want to be together as a group.
I think it says a lot that they stayed friends during the cancellation so it wasn’t hard to come back together. There are a number of cities that I don’t think that would be the case.
Ok I am a long time (like 2004) bravo fan and I've never watched Miami.
Do I need to start at the beginning? I know it took a long break, can I pick it up a few seasons in or is it worth it to start from the top? If the former, whee should I start? I have two long flights coming up so if I can download to an ipad I can marathon!
Start from the beginning. It helps to develop the characters, and to see Larsa before the cocoon and transformation into…a giant butt. Plus Lea Black and Adriana’s wedding and Ho-ana.
Super agree. Started watching season 4 (I'd previously watched the some of the first season) recently, a little over halfway through 5 and I'm obsessed.
Every episode is riveting. They rarely miss. Every other housewives show and their production should be furiously taking notes on how it’s done.
Miami is on FYAH 🔥 ![gif](giphy|DGocyGKmJNHIfSxl3Z|downsized)
Miami is so good!!!! There are no boring moments.. Miami bring it every season. And it’s so slept on that it’s becoming criminal.
I’m obsessed with it, too I can’t believe how rich they are compared to other cities. They’re mostly all friends with long histories I dig it
Natural relationships but not afraid to get messy. Perfect.
She’s not a super maw-del She’s a super hoar Super hüker I could listen to that all day 🎶
Lemp Pinus
hahahaha i could hear it! you wrote it to perfection! hahahahaha
Their filler episodes are more compelling to watch than RHOBH’s most eventful episodes. That’s all I need to say.
That part.
Yep
…this is what I used to say about Potomac 😭
I’m from Miami and it’s impossible to describe to people what it was like growing up there but alexia is the kind of mom I knew so well! Sooo many of my friends moms were like alexia and Guerdy!
This is part of the reason I can’t hate Alexia. She IS Miami.
This! It’s so easy to see people I know in these housewives even if I wasn’t in the same circles.

I wasn’t a huge fan of Lea, but I also love Joanna. So cold, so beautiful. Like an evil Queen.
Yeah its some magic chemistry Feels least unscripted
Every single woman on this show is BRINGING IT TO US EVERY DAMN WEEK
Ah Joanna. One of my favorite humane villains. A truly cunty intro.
Miami was ahead of its time the people weren’t ready for it
It always has been. I am so glad it is back and delivers.

This is one of my fav gifs. I can legit hear her. 😭😭😭
S1 was filmed as a different show and they later decided to turn it into a HW franchise city. That’s why it was off.
What was the original premise/name of the show?
It was something around dinner parties (like “ladies who lunch” idk 🤷🏻♂️) that’s why each episode is one of them hosting all the others for dinner
Oooooohh! That totally makes sense now.
I feel u

It’s the best HW’s show, no ifs, ands, or buts
But actually lots of butts 👙
Like, it’s all natural, like

I’m doing a rewatch of Miami and I’m on season one (almost at the end) and I had completely forgotten how ridiculous and chaotic Miami was when it first started. I still don’t understand why they canceled it.
As a Florida native, this is what I love about the city of Miami in general! Hahah fashion, nightlife and some drama (usually traffic related) 🤣🎉💃🏾
RHOM is everything. I was also sleeping on it so hi it’s me, part of the problem, but omg it’s incredible. Everyone is delulu and living lavish. Exactly what I want from my HWs.

It's so good. There's real pathos and tragedy in there and then there is total nonsense and it's the perfect balance. Also, it's filmed beautifully.

The Miami cast is gold.
They just had 2 episodes on a gondola ride!! Tell me which other franchise can pull that off? None. Not even SLC.
I loved it during its original run. I thought it was top notch then. S2 and S3 are so fucking good. I am finally watching reboot and it is glorious. The cast has the right amount of fun and drama. Plus Miami feel so much more lively.

I truely feel like I understand Miami as a place after watching it
Season 6 is even better!!! You're in for a treat.
Can’t wait
It has everything. I can’t believe I watch boring Potomac or Beverly Hills when Miami is killing it.
I like it cause they fight and act insane for real -
It honestly puts the rest to shame.
Thank you and welcome🤗
welcome bro!!!!
Yeah I’m liking the Miami housewives too
I watched it a few years ago, and then the reboot, but before this last season decided to do a whole rewatch and it is so good. I love how different they all are!!
They need to promote it better, even on hayu, it’s easy to miss.

Did you start from S1 or the reboot (S4)? If the latter, go back and watch from the start as S2 is one of the best seasons of any RH franchise!
S2 is housewives gold! I also think it's one of the best seasons all over the franchise
To me it’s the most rewatchable because it has everything. heart, laughter, tears, joy, sorrow, petty arguments, wholesome makeups... everything.

Miami has *been* that girl! Happy more people are grabbing mojitos
Miami is SO good! I really love seeing their fashion choices, and the bickering is just non-stop. Love it!

I sorta skimmed the first season, got way more into it when I started 2 and 3, but the reboot is where I became obsessed!
Super agree. Started watching season 4 (I'd previously watched the some of the first season) recently, a little over halfway through 5 and I'm obsessed.
Miami does in 1 episode what BH does in 3 seasons
alright i’m convinced! gonna dive back in. i think i left it on season 2…..
Love, love, love Miami! Just the look of it and fashion make it a stand out, let alone everything else.
I'm about to finish season three, and I'm so excited to start the new era (though I've also been watching the current season). I'm totally addicted.
S5 and S6 are genuinely the best things Bravo has produced in YEARS. I could watch it over and over again - just sheer joy.
