Real Housewives of NJ--Official Thread

I think Hustler would be more appropriate.

thanksI knew there was a smutty one but couldnt recall the name...

And the Emmy goes to....Caroline Manzo.

What...was she laughing and crying at the same time? After her display of semi-tolerance toward Danielle all through the reunion show - not to mention Dina's acceptance of Danielle's apology - there's something big and horrible about Danielle that they won't share? Must be bigger than bjs and kidnapping if they won't bring it up.

Looks to me like the ladies are trying to ensure a season 2.

I agree - I didn't think she was to bad when I first started watching the show but she just got more adamant about protecting her family, being scrappy, I'm small but tough, thick as thieves, blah blah blah as the show progressed it got somewhat annoying. I actually didn't like Dina to much during the show but I was pretty impressed with her during the reunion.

Ugh, I agree, the woman drives me nuts. I think it was the last show of the season with Caroline and the dog....good grief who is coming after her?

After watching the second part tonight, I feel sorry for Jacqueline...the poor woman still could not get a word in. But wow, she is in a hard spot between a friend a mother-in-law!

OK....here is my detective work: On the BRAVO blogs.....Danielle states that all she did was give a phone number to an ex-brother-in-law of the manzos for him to call someone to find out something?????? On Dina's blog....she just says that recently Danielle involved two innocent people into a situation that didnt pan out. So.....guess we will never know what they are talking about......in our minds it could be really juicy or really stupid. BUT as of the reunion, it looked like Jacqueline still had some compassion for Danielle .....but in US magazine, since recently finding out what Danielle did, she makes the statement "She has not seen my baby, nor will I ever let her."

So in my mind....I will think that it must be pretty juicy what Danielle did!!! LOL!!!!!!

I agree-Dina is a class act

HOWEVER this show THRIVES on drama. The "nice" Atlanta Housewife was booted off. So I can see why the show ended with a mini drama

-from what I read in blogs on Bravo Jackqueline tried to give Dina's Ex some info anout Dina's past-but it never happened-something like that.

From what Im gathering and yes, assuming, it seems like Danielle was stirring up something to mess with Dina's custody of Lexi.....The 2 people being her daughter and her ex-husband.

 

[heartsy77]

When I watched the reunion show; I was picking up a vibe that the whole Danielle horrible insentient had some thing to with Dina's daughter. What instantly popped in my head is that she made a complaint against Dina with Children and Family Services (or whatever office handles it in NJ) . Dina told Caroline nothing came of what Danielle did; and if Jackie said she won't let her new baby around her? Well that's what my gut tells me.

Ha!! That's hilarious. Taking the high road ONE TIME does not make you a class act.

They are all trash. Every single one of them.

I don't know...do you really think Dina would have sat there at the reunion show without bringing something like that up? Not to mention the fact that she actually accepted Danielle's apology. If Danielle tried to mess with Dina's custody that would have been the worst thing she has done, by far. They hated her before with no real reason (we all did ) I think it has to be something that's not really that bad, since they got along most of the time at the reunion...and Caroline's outburst was the "who shot JR".... JMO

i dont know....I'm sort of torn. Jacqueline still seemed to be somewhat of Danielle's friend during the reunion....and seemed to still want a freindship with her. BUT now....with Jacquelines statements in US magazine...it would lead me to believe that Danielle had to have done something very bad for Jacqueline to cut ties with her. Maybe I'm wrong and just reading into it that way....I dont know. Jacqueline hasnt updated her Bravo blog yet....so it should be interesting to see what she puts in there.

 

[clownfish1452]

I have watched the show from the are I cant believe I didnt ever see your posts here. Oh well. There is no way I can get caught up now, but I would like to add the one thing I really liked about the show that you really didnt see in any of the other housewives show is how much these people really love there families and not that they love the cars, the clothes and just plain the endless money they really love there famlies that was what I liked about the show.

And yet Danielle is referred to as the "Drama Queen" - drama, drama, drama.. Look in the mirror, Caroline..

I agree - I didn't think she was to bad when I first started watching the show but she just got more adamant about protecting her family, being scrappy, I'm small but tough, thick as thieves, blah blah blah as the show progressed it got somewhat annoying.

Caroline needs to get over herself.. Can you imagine having her for your MIL - "I dislike you before I like you" ?? Does she think she is some kind of exalted ruler or what??

Ugh, I agree, the woman drives me nuts. I think it was the last show of the season with Caroline and the dog....good grief who is coming after her?

Can't imagine who might be coming after their family - since there are no Mafia ties and they are so sweet and kind to everyone..

Was the article in US a direct converstaion with Jacqueline - or was it one of those "sources say"??

Last night they also didn't show the part where Caroline called Danielle "garbage" and said she hoped her "Bravo family had the **** to put this on air".. Wonder if that is what's going to be on the second "Lost Footage" show on July 9th?

 

[Mouse House Mama]

I don't care. I still like Caroline. I do think she is genuine in how she feels and that she truly loves her family. I can relate to her on many levels.

I think Danielle is a scheming liar. Sorry but that whole episode you could see her wheels turning. I also cannot help but roll my eyes right out of my head when someone "finds God" all of a sudden. Her blog is ridiculous. You would think that she was in Calcutta curing the sick the way she spouts off in her blog. Sorry but I cannot stand when people do that. To me it is an obvious ploy to gain sympathy and try to get people to see you are pious. Her whole abuse story which if true I think is horrific didn't totally ring true with me though. She was barely even able to squeeze out a tear. It was as though it was contrived act. If it did truly happen then my heart goes out to her as a victim of abuse. The other stuff that she has done to the Housewives I have no sympathy for. I think she tried to mess with Dina and her child personally. I also think that Dina is just saying that she forgives her so she will go away. I can't say I blame her.

I don't feel bad for Jacqueline. I would be really mad too if my SIL was friends with someone like Danielle who was talking bad about our family etc. Sure she can have her own friends but what kind of family member would want to be BFF with a person who badmouths their husband's sister all the time. That is 10 different kinds of messed up. I think Jacqueline needs to wake up and smell the coffee. She even said in one episode that her own DH didn't want her talking to Danielle! So have ******* with your dh over a person who is always badmouthing everyone? It's not like Danielle is some poor misunderstood soul. She is a schemer. Plain and simple. I am willing to bet the Chris saw it as well and that is why he ask Jacqueline to stop talking to her. I also think he relented because they were going through fertility issues and he didn't want to stress her out. Of course that is just my opinion.

Theresa- I think she is comedic relief. I don't think she is really stupid. I think she just wants to have fun in life. She loves her kids, loves her husband and has a great repore with friends. She seems to just want a normal (marble/granite/onyx ) life. I think Danielle is an emotional drain on people.

Yup.. I was waiting for the "punch line" and it never came..

I agree. Whatever it was that Danielle did couldn't have been that bad or Dina wouldn't have been willing to forgive her. Caroline does tend to over-do the drama on things.

Didn't you get the memo? The Manzo family has no time or patience for "drama" - unless of course it's Caroline that's creating it..
