It is time for Bravo to bring our beloved Dorinda Medley Break. The “Make it Nice” queen reigned over the Big Apple for six seasons. The mother of one was part of the golden years of the Real Housewives of New York. Viewers easily fell in love with Dorinda because of her bubbly attitude and zest for life. Towards the end of her run in season 12, however, Dorinda began to show a side of herself that wasn’t kindness. But instead of firing her, Bravo took pity and simply put Dorinda on ice. But now she’s back, along with her precious Blue Stone Manor as the setting for a new spinoff show. Here’s what I hope to see from the new series.
I want to see many guest appearances on Dorinda Medley’s show
Blue Stone Manor has been the setting for many themed weekends. Everyone can remember a scene or two where a housewife breaks down. For me, it would be Luann de Lesseps crying about being put in the fish room. Even though the Countess wasn’t a fan, I’m sure many other former Real Housewives want to snag a guest spot. Dorinda has friends in high places, so it would be pretty cool to see D bond with them a few times.
Of course, a trip to Blue Stone Manor wouldn’t be complete without some of the RHONY ladies stopping by. There’s so much to do in the great outdoors. Dorinda could organize a trip to the lake, albeit without stemware and wine. But maybe this time she could hire a chef and not worry about being the hostess with the most guests.
I want to see Dorinda’s aerobics show again
Dorinda is many things, but no one would have ever guessed that she was an ’80s aerobics instructor. But in Season 8, she admitted to being a damn good teacher. It would be pretty incredible to see Dorinda host a live class in her large backyard, complete with neon leotards. The 18-acre property is the perfect setting for anyone looking to relax and get healthy.
Come dine with Dorinda Medley
Okay, imagine if there was a show where Dorinda was one of four presenters. Each contestant is responsible for an evening of cooking a delicious three-course meal and waiting to be judged. In the UK, there’s a series called Come Dine with Me, but we’d tweak it and call it Come Dine with Dorinda. Over the years, there have been some pretty rude guests wanting to win the money. But I imagine Dorinda would be merciless. The woman loves to win and isn’t afraid to speak her mind. She would feel right at home in her own kitchen baking and cooking. And if she didn’t win, it would set the perfect stage for an epic meltdown because she most likely “cooked, cleaned, and made it nice.”
Medley Mansion
As fans learn, Dorinda’s show is still in its early stages. But rumors say it will be like Lisa Vanderpump’s Vanderpump Mansion. I can already picture it: Medley Mansion. I love the idea of unnecessary drama at Blue Stone Manor. With Dorinda as the lady of the house, everything would have to be meticulously done for each special guest. I’m curious how she would feel if she wasn’t the center of attention. Fans watch young hospitality workers at the Vanderpump Mansion as they live, work, and struggle, all in the French chateau. In 2021, she listed the famous mansion on Airbnb and the response has been fabulous. I mean, who wouldn’t want to spend a night in the Fish Room (besides Luann?) I’m in!
Bravo and Dorinda have been pretty tight-lipped about their secret project. But Dorinda’s return means a lot of viewers have been waiting for this day. The network is going through some big changes as it just rebooted the Real Housewives of New York. It also looks like the Real Housewives of Atlanta and the Real Housewives of New Jersey will suffer the same fate. Whatever the premise, Dorinda has worked hard for her return and is still a fan favorite. I can’t wait to see the show blossom!
You can watch Blue Stone Manor on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, now streaming on Peacock.
