Sonja and Luann Go from Housewives to Fabulous, Farting Dairy Queens
With every new episode of Sonja & Luann: Welcome to Crappie Lake, I spend each second of its runtime thinking, “This can’t possibly get any better.” But silly me! Bravo’s breakout hit reality show, which sees its Real Housewives of New York alums trying to spruce up a small Illinois town, has been defying my expectations at every turn.
Sunday’s episode took Sonja Morgan and Luann de Lesseps from their Funyun-strewn motel room to an animal shelter, to a small-town boutique called Sue’s, to the ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new playground that the two Manhattan socialites finagled for the town. Each new location provided its usual bevy of laughter (their wig modeling at Sue’s has to be one of the funniest scenes of any reality show I’ve seen all year), but it was their stop for sustenance at the local Dairy Queen that will live on in my heart.
Well, it’ll live on in my heart. For Sonja and Luann, the DQ trip will be living on in their farts.
