    I never thought “reality” TV could stoop any lower and then…
    we got RHONJ and the Jersey Shore bunch.

    Is Jersey stinking up the whole country now or what? LOL

    They all make me embarrassed to be an Italian American. We all know families like this-big fish in a small, infested pond. Bravo couldn’t find some educated, refined Italian American women in all of NJ? NJ is filled with accomplished Italian American Women who are not only great parents, but are educated and leaders in their fields and communities. I guess walking and talking sterotypes like this gang make for better TV. None of them are great parents-if they were, none of those kids would be on camera. Caroline is no class act. She has raised brats, that despite every opportunity, are pretty much under acheivers. Albie, thanks to “connections” got right into the police academy. Good thing, because I will be very surprised it that kid makes it to Law School-(which btw is not all that difficult-he wasen’t in Harvard people.) The other son wants to own a car-wash strip club-nice. The girl went to beauty school! Would you want your hair done by that, she’s a lazy cow! – what a waste! How about college instead of living off your parents forever….good thing they work for that “classy” banquet hall.Ashley is awful and needs help. Theresa’s girls are bratty and need some limits. None of these woman work, have careers of anything else in their lives except very lazy, bratty, dim witted kids, and crooked,connected husbands who file chapter 11. No wonder the only thing they have to talk about is crazy lady Danielle. This is what happens when women don’t have lives or identities.

    Danielle is Danielle. The rest are idiots. Better be crazy than an idiot or in TG case. A complete moron. I hope the show tanks now without Danielle!

    Caro. is protecting ashley so she can keep Jac. close, with no friends outside the family. Caro. is the one that told Jac.”IRON HAND JAC.,IRON HAND!!!!!! If Jac. becomes friends with Kim G. they will dig something up about her.WATCH

  • ditdotter

    Jac. is the only one who is descent. She is not greedy.conceided,not a credit card freak, and raised her boys to be unspoiled, unlike Ther, shes not one to brag about it.

  • Amaze

    Danielle is exactly what Caroline said she was…garbage. And, where on earth did she find those two obnoxious goons she hangs with. Danny, isn’t that his name, needs to crawl back under the rock he came from. Talk about little man syndrome.

    CAroline has been the matriarch the whole time, or at least trying to be, her motives became crystal clear this season with the personal revelation of how sad,lonely, and purposeless she’ll feel once the “kids” all finally leave home, that is her crown, her raison d’etre: motherhen to a brood, no matter they be her own children, or an extended pack of needy, esteem-challenged women, remember her mantra family, family, family, family, oh, did she say family? she wants/needs to be the protector, the saviour, the mama who can make everything be better, and presumably be loved and/or respected for it, just as she made clear in her speech about “going to the mattress” for Ashley by comfronting Danielle, she fully expected to be thanked/appreciated/loved for it, not just by Ashley, but perhaps above all, her baby brother(her hatred of Danielle started when Caroline perceived her as a danger to her beloved baby sister) none of this is to fault her for being the mother grizzly, but there’s abundant evidence that the siege on Danielle is unapologetically intentional on the part of (catherinede medici, uhm, her highness, Caroline deManzo)it isnothing less than the systematic bullyingof a weaker opponent by a stronger pride of lionesses.in the end, the pride will likely win (strength in numbers)the weaker cat will have no choice but to fight back and be mortally wounded or run to a new hunting ground where she will be accepted( Might be an opening acrosss the Hudson in Manhattan soon?)Danielle and Kelly Bensimon, now there’s a crazyshow!Nurse Jackie to room 1005please?

    I completely side with Danielle. The rest of the housewives, with the exception of Jaqueline, hated Danielle from the start. There really was no reason. They tortured her with her past and basically tried to get into confrontations with her.

    Teresa had no right to approach Danielle at the club. They were never friends and she instigated the whole thing. Because of that Ashley attacked Danielle too. Teresa said she was trying to be nice, but after shoving a table and making fun of her? And who in their right mind chases someone into a parking lot? Danielle was minding her own business.

    But I am really upset that Danielle won’t be on the show next season. It really won’t be the same without her. The finale was sort of a let-down, nothing much happened. Hopefully, the reunion is better and Danielle can leave with a formal exit.

  • Sickos

    The growling, grunting, fowl-mouthed Teresa should be caged! How can Caroline stand this animal? I’m no Danielle fan, but you can’t tell me that Jacqueline and the others didn’t reherse their comments ahead of time. They are embarassments to all Italians.

  • gege480

    daniele is wanting all the attention she needs serious mental help and needs to leave the girls alone, and her kids look as though the resent her, i just cant stand daniele.

  • Mario

    I saw the show with my wife. My comment was. The woman Theresa really is white trush. My wife said to me: Baby they all are white trush.

  • Mary

    I’m so ashamed of jaqueline. She acted just like teresa but honey you cant pull it off .I thought you were the honest one but i see caroline and the rest brainwashed you already and Danielle am so proud of keep being you and dont listen to these grumpy old bitches

  • rose muwonge

    am no danielle fan but i think she is the realest of all those house wives
    i used to love jaqueline but she pissed me off coz she is a two faced you no wat she just reminds me of people in primary school who dint have a mind of theirs
    as for Dina good riddance to bad rubish she was so full of herself thank god she left

  • SHARP

    Seriously watching that show embarasses the female gender, how low can u get, I guess anyone is ready to do anything for money today. I would disguise myself before going out of the house if I were in their shoes, all of them
