The Real Housewives of New Jersey

Danielle manipulates to be in control. Faux allergy people often times do that in order to be able to control a group, and I think she falls into that category. I think she got married because she wanted to be able to control her friends for a few months, and she got upset at Margaret because she wasn't willing to be controlled. It seemed last night like Melissa was about to voice that when Teresa was defending Danielle against Margaret bringing up that they hadn't talked since the wedding. I'm sorry she didn't.

It's strange Danielle is running after Jen, methinks she would like some freebie surgery ..

Marge owned what she said, she said sorry and moved on, but somewhere imho, she struck a nerve

Not for me. I think I'm out of 'juice' for this group. To me, fighting is tolerable if the characters and/or storylines are interesting in other ways, or if they have some redeeming value. With this season of RHONJ the storylines are BORING!!! And the women are totally unappealing.  

I've watched this show since the beginning --- but ever since they dropped the families of Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, Kathy Wakile, and Rosie Pieri (LOVED Rosie!!!) --- the show has never gotten the cast right again. They keep trying new people, but every season RHONJ just isn't what it used to be, on the first few seasons. 

^I second that, JoryMom...couldn't stand them!

Danielle is so fake. I don't see why others don't see how she tries to stir the pot.

I love what Marge did for the children in hospital it was very special, and I'd rather of seen more of that, than the tedious Jennifer. Wth is with Marty? He appeared to be okay, until Danielle happened..next weeks preview looks like he's drunk, and Marge pushes his ugly mouth into the pool.

The couple I really like , are Jackie and her husband Evan, maybe they are too normal to continue.
Theresa wake up! You know exactly what Danielle is like..  I guess it doesn't matter, because everyone else knows..

Isn't she though, imagine dating her, she knows so little about everything..

I admit I replayed the pool scene one too many times.   Joe is such a little instigator this season and I oddly don't mind it.  He just stands there and watches the fireworks. Cracks me up!

The theme was so tacky....anyone else get gay vibes from Jen's husband? Their kids are annoying and spoiled brats...

I really liked Jackie, I think she's able to put someone in their place, without chucking drinks or flipping tables..

I wasn't much of a fan of Jackie until tonight. She wasn't backing down from Teresa. And Teresa was out of control because of it.

I was very impressed with the way Melissa handled things - especially the conflict between Teresa and Jackie. She did a good job of resisting getting into it, and when she did speak up, it was constructive. She was right in saying that Jackie was being rational and logical and Teresa was not. I do wish someone had called Teresa out on her hypocrisy by saying that if Jackie didn't speak to family members for years that she wasn't someone Teresa wants to have anything to do with ... and then a few minutes later declaring she wasn't talking to Melissa anymore. Had that been pointed out, I wonder if Delores would have defended it.
I'll give Jennifer credit for one thing - she learned a bit to keep her mouth shut and quit stepping in it by chiming in on every subject.

There's a lot of Teresa screaming, so if that's a big turnoff for you, it may be a good idea to avoid it. The big difference this time is that neither Melissa nor Jackie are phased by her screaming - and do a pretty good job of pointing out how unhinged she is. At the very end, Teresa does appear to get mad and flip the cards out of Andy's hand - more on that next week I"m guessing. So no table flipping, but still typical Teresa.

Did anyone see the pictures of Teresa holding hands and being close to a boy toy in FLA?
He looks like a child, but Teresa's taste in men is um, well, different.
