I have no idea who is who on this show, since I don't have a TV. But I've seen them referred to as narcissists. "Narcissist" is probably closer than "aspie". "Rich" also comes to mind. (I own one pair of hiking boots. No fancy shoes.)
Careful - I was accused of over and over and believed for a long time that I was a narcissist before I was diagnosed as aspie. There is, however, a huge difference.
I deeply care about people - every single person on earth - I just have a very hard time showing it. I run over people but not for sport - I'm just clueless and overly-focused sometimes.
All the women on the show seem to be very caring - but they can have cruel senses of humor. Another aspie characteristic.
And besides, "rich" isn't really a personality type. Its not even a state of mind.
Asperger syndrome can be misinterpreted as narcissim, but narcissim is EXACTLY what these characters are!
Furthermore having seen the show myself I DO NOT think that ANY of these characters show the slightest trace of being Aspies!
If they have mental abnormalities they're probably bipolar since many bipolar women are exceedingly promiscuous when they're having a manic episode.
