The Best and Worst Returning Housewives


Comebacks are having a moment on the franchise, but there’s a long history of fruit holders making the most — or least — of their second chance.

Dina was always a bit ambivalent about reality fame, and her inaction didn’t help turn around one of the worst seasons in Housewives history, while we were waiting for Teresa to report to jail and subjected to those crazy twins and Amber Marchese’s terrible husband. Her mob-boss-style dressing down of Shannon Beador; dealing with her friend Nicole James, who lied about suing Terry Dubrow; and her hatred of Noella Bergener gave her a barn burner of a season 16. We’re talking “Mention it all,” all the Berzerkshires trips, the drunken Mexico booze-a-thon, Boat Ride From Hell, her fights with Carole Radziwill, Ramona accusing her of not supporting other women, Sonja Morgan starting a “cheater brand,” and so many others.
