The fifth season of the county's best-loved (and most-hated) reality TV series premieres at 10 p.m. Nov. 5 on Bravo. After that, it will air at 10 p.m. Thursdays – not Tuesdays as in seasons past.
Here are some of the highlights of the Richard Chang sneak peek:
The newest housewife, Alexis Bellino, "I'm so excited to be one of the housewives." We see her exercising. She adds, "Hopefully, make the world a better place." Yeah, right.
Flash over to Jeana meeting with Gretchen. "I put my house up for sale," she says. "I'm asking for 5.5 million . It's just got to be too much. I don't really think anyone wants to buy in this market." By all accounts, Jeana is expected to depart the cast this season.
Speaking of real estate, we see an agent having a serious meeting with Simon and Tamra Barney. "There are homes selling in this area for below a million," he says.
Tamra: "There's zero equity. I mean, We're so upside down." Tamra to the camera: "To actually sell the house is … (in tears) a little hard."
Meanwhile, Lynne is getting ready for plastic surgery. "I feel like my face has fallen and it can't get up," she says. "Get me in there, right now."
She is wheeled into the surgery room with marker lines dotting her face – presumably indicating the procedure she's going to have.
"You did really good, Lynne," a nurse says after she's done.
Earlier this month, Lynne’s family is faced with eviction from their Laguna Beach home and were forced to move out because of their financial difficulties. That will no doubt be part of Lynn's story line as well.
Back to our "Housewives" sneak peek. The wives are trying on lingerie and bathing suits, while their husbands are waiting outside the dressing rooms. Simon Barney says, "So are we getting hot back there? Our wives taking off their clothes. That makes anyone hot."
Later, Simon and Tamra are having drinks with Alexis and her husband and what appear to be Gretchen and possibly Slade Smiley, whom she's now dating. Tamra says, "Vicki felt uncomfortable, because she was the odd man out."
Simon says, "Vicki's always been envious of me and her," pointing to himself and his wife.
Tamra: "Don't say that."
Simon: "I'm sorry, it's the truth."
In another conversation, a teary Vicky says to Tamra: "Your husband looks at me with hate in his eyes."
Tamra: "No, he doesn't."
Vicki: "He said, 'I don't want my wife hanging around you because you're too independent.' I'm (inaudible) exit out of this one." Sorry, is being independent a bad thing?
Next we see Gretchen hanging out with her dog(s) at the beach. "I don't know if I've coped very well after Jeff passed away," she says, referring to her ex-fiancé who died from leukemia at the end of last season.
"I'm really fortunate for the time that we did have, but you know, every day is a tough day without him." Did you hear that, Slade?
Finally, there's a new wrinkle in the formerly rock-solid Barney relationship.
Tamra: "When it comes to Simon and I, it is a rocky road."
At a party, she says to him, "Let's act like we like each other."
Simon says, "Show a little class, would you?" I guess those etiquette classes she took last season didn't help.
Later, Tamra says to her mom, "I just don't think that I'm the person he wants me to be." She breaks into tears. "We're seriously heading towards divorce, and I don't know what to do."
Watch What Happens!
