This is just as ridiculous than what it is portraying. I don't think anyone could tell the difference between this an the show it is making fun of.

The Hotwives of Las Vegas is a fantastic comedy set in 2015, plunging viewers headfirst into the ridiculous world of Las Vegas's most glamorous (and absurd) socialites. This second season masterfully follows up on The Hotwives of Orlando, which introduced us to iconic "Orlando Hotwives" like Tawny St. John (Casey Wilson) and Shauna Maducci (Danielle Schneider). In Vegas, we meet a new ensemble of "Hotwives," including Denise Funt (Schneider), Leona Carpeze (Dannah Phirman), Jenfer Beudon (Wilson), Ivanka Silversan (Andrea Savage), Callie Silversan (Erinn Hayes), and "First Lady" Stephanie (Angela Kinsey). Adding to the fun, the brilliant Tymberlee Hill reprises her role as Phe Phe Reed, who has now hilariously relocated to Sin City.
I absolutely loved The Hotwives of Las Vegas! The series truly shines with its over-the-top characters, exaggerated situations, and sharp wit. What makes it so enjoyable is how perfectly it satirizes the tropes and personalities found in reality TV, especially shows like The Real Housewives. It offers a brilliantly humorous take on the lavish lifestyles and dramatic conflicts, making every episode a laugh-out-loud experience. The show expertly crafts a world of absurdity that's both ridiculous and incredibly clever.
My favorite character is, without a doubt, Phe Phe Reed, played by the phenomenal Tymberlee Hill. Her return from the Orlando season was a huge win, and she quickly solidified her status as a fan favorite for good reason. Phe Phe's over-the-top personality as a self-proclaimed entrepreneur and judge of her own outlandish courtroom show, "Ya Guilty, Bitch!", makes her a constant highlight. She embodies a unique blend of sassy humor and a "renaissance woman" persona, hilariously balancing multiple, often ridiculous, "careers." Her scenes are pure comedic gold and a big reason to watch.
The Hotwives of Las Vegas is highly recommended for anyone who enjoys satirical comedies, particularly those with a soft spot for parodies of reality TV. If you appreciate larger-than-life characters, outrageous scenarios, and smart, witty humor, this show is definitely for you. Fans of mockumentaries such as Best in Show or A Mighty Wind will likely find a similar comedic style to enjoy. It's also an excellent choice for admirers of the talented comedic actors involved, like Casey Wilson, Tymberlee Hill, and Kristen Schaal, who are known for their exceptional improv and comedic timing.

The cast of Hotwives: Orlando are back but this time they're in Las Vegas and they're playing different characters except for Phe Phe who has moved from Orlando to Vegas. Casey Wilson (Jenfer) is marrying her bestie's ex-fiancé and while she's obviously at least 8 months pregnant she tells everyone she just got pregnant so First Lady (Angela Kinsey) doesn't know they were together sooner. Dannah Feinglass Phirman (Leona) is the "mama" of the group who acts a lot like Caroline from RHNJ. Andrea Savage (Ivanka) is Europeon and spectacular except for her husband being a little too close to his sister who is a witch.
Headline - Disappointed.
Loved Orlando, when viewed side by side, it's pretty much perfect, Vegas, is a mess, it hurts me to say that.
The people the girls chose to play in season one & the way they did it just fizzed, season two was a flat glass of cheap American 'champagne' in comparison.
I hardly laughed, some of it was unbelievably bad and could have been easily fixed with some help, I'd love to know how they went so wrong.
To any good reviewers, I would say, you were watching a different show, or on an extreme amount of medication.
I've watched Orlanda many times - once was enough for Vegas - what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, thank f**K!!

This is the best comedy! You never stop laughing, they take the real house wives from where ever and take it to a whole new level. The women that star in it are amazing amazing amazing!! We need more of this for the woman that actually hate the real shows. I could only watch 5 min of each of them and thought how ridiculous they are in real life. So this version of making fun of them is classic. Love whoever came up with this idea. Love the cast, the writers and cameramen just perfect. We need more of this for all the women that need a good laugh cause the real deal is just pathetic with all the rich women problems. More please!:)
Hilarious! I love that actors from the Orlando version are in this version. Some of them I had to double check to make sure they were who I thought they were because the acting was so great it was hard to tell (Leona and Ivanka in particular). The storylines we really creative too. I was disappointed that Kristin Schaal only made a cameo appearance because she was one if my favorite characters. I wish she'd been a regular cast member. Anyone who has seen a Real Housewives episode can see the similarities between it and this satire show. It really highlights how vacuous and ridiculous the real housewives are. I'll take Hot Wives.
