I ran across this show not by choice. Why would anyone want to see 50 plus women's sagging breast and discussing behavior is confusing. I guess it made me feel better about myself. Sad they are so insecure. FYI ladies, no one wants to see old drooping sagging breasts, unless they've had too many

Don't watch. Especially if you have young impressionable girls. Disgusting immature behavior. Aging ladies behaving and dressing badly acting like they are 20 but are over 50. Why would they think anyone would want to see old sagging breasts?! So gross and disgusting! Grow up ladies and have some class.

It stars The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Kyle Richards, LuAnn de Lesseps and Ramona Singer from the The Real Housewives of New York City, and Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga from the New Jersey cast.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say: (1 ):
Kids say: Not yet rated

Part unscripted drama, part retrospective, this surprisingly thoughtful spin-off features some iconic cast members coming together while remembering their most notable Housewives moments. As they sunbathe, drink, and argue (while becoming friends), the women flash back to previous episodes, showing their most memorable (and sometimes over-the-top) scenes. On some occasions these flashbacks serve as a way of making the show more entertaining. But a few of them also highlight some of the real-life challenges these women have faced as a result of being on a popular reality show for so long. If you're a Real Housewives fan, no doubt that The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip will appeal to you.
