We first meet Lea Black, the wife of one of the top defense attorneys in Miami. Considered a community leader, Lea is often hosting charity events and can't put down the BlackBerry.

Next is Larsa Pippen, married to NBA legend Scottie Pippen. Larsa is immediately introduced as a soccer mom with a bit of a shopping habit. She decides to go to the shooting range to keep her valuables protected at home, so that just in case one of her nannies tries to steal one of her bags, she can shoot them. Larsa was just kidding. Or was she? No, she was not kidding.

Adriana De Moura is an art dealer, as well as self-proclaimed "Queen of Miami." Although Adriana has a fiancE, Fredric, we quickly learn that she is quite boy-crazy. Lea and Adriana met when their sons began going to school together. They would talk during their sons' tennis lessons and Lea was immediately attracted to Adriana's soap-oprah lifestyle.

Christy Rice is born and raised in Miami, and recently divorced from former NBA player Glen Rice. She and Larsa met 15 years ago, when they first became NBA girlfriends.

Alexia Echevarria refers to herself as the Cuban Barbie, but despite her nickname, she also happens to be the executive editor of Venue Magazine.
Marysol Patton runs the most successful PR firm in Miami, and A-listers often seek her spiritual guidance. Out of the entire cast, Marysol is the token pillow-face of the group. She goes to her mother for advice about her new man, Filipe. More intriguing than their conversation is the question silently raised during their interaction: if Marysol is a pillow-face, what would her mother be called? Yikes.

Larsa, Christy, and Adriana attend Miami Fashion Week. Adriana is embarrassed that they arrived early to a fashion show, but is quickly impressed that the male models "carried their crown jewels" very well. What would Fredric think, Adriana?

Adriana decides to walk the catwalk after the show, just to be fun. Christy turns her nose up at Adriana’s behavior, comparing her to her eight-year-old daughter and her little friends. At a party later on, Adriana is having fun being sandwiched by two men on the dance floor. What would Fredric think?

We finally return to Lea, planning a dinner for her and her girlfriends. The ladies all get a private cooking lesson in Lea’s home, and to make things more exciting, she has everyone wear giant chef hats in solidarity with the poor man trying to teach them how to cook.

While the Housewives of Miami are a far cry from those of Atlanta or New Jersey, there are plenty of personalities that are bound to clash.

As the end credits roll, viewers are left wondering:

• Is Larsa really the most stable one of the group?
• How long will it be until she's had enough of Lea’s BlackBerry addiction?
• Did Marysol’s mother’s face just move?
• Will Christy and Alexia do something remotely interesting before the season finale?
• What will Fredric think?
