Right? I mean, if you wanted it to be a 'snub' to Kim D, then the best snub is to not go at all. I don't even think Kim D noticed that Danielle was on the phone. "I'm gonna pretend like i'm on the phone"....how ridiculous. I bet when the 'friends' at her table heard that, knew there was something crazy about her.

It drives me crazy that Danielle uses "woman" like it's plural. It's like nails on a chalkboard every time she says "all those woman."

From what I read when earlier this year, nobody pulled a gun or knife but somebody thought Danielle pulled one. I believe this is what led Ashley to attack her.

However....based on the videos, Ashley attacked Danielle after the "she has a knife" was long over.

Watch what happens!
(they are all crazy)

Danielle is certifiably nuts. I've noticed that someone will say something to her, and it's like she heard something completely different. She thinks everyone is out to get her. Also, she complains that she is broke and said she needs money for food, yet carries around how many different Chanel purses? One comment that really irked me was when she said something to the effect of "Oh, they only had non-professional models in this show, THAT'S why they didn't ask my daughter to be in it."

Her kids are going to be completely screwed up, if they aren't already. The older one is showing signs of delusion. She tells them details about her sex life, for pete's sake. There's just something wrong with that whole family unit.

.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Danielle is looking for every excuse to show sexuality this season? :confused: First, it was the whole "he videotaped me when I didn't know" thing; then there was the pole dancing for absolutely NO REASON WHATSOEVER that seemed SOOOOO staged; and then there was the whole breast alteration thing where she didn't mind flashing all of America with this mutilated breast. :eek: This woman, obviously, did NOT get enough attention as a child. :mad:

I only have one positive thing to say about Danielle. If I could find those leather leggings that she was wearing with those boots in the last episode, I would get them in a heartbeat. The whole outfit, actually (with the shorter boots).

I just noticed that Theresa gave birth in Hackensack. I'm not really familiar with NJ geography, but I DO know that my stepdad's family is in the hackensack area. Maybe i'll see the RHONJ ladies when I go and visit.

A friend of mine from college grew up in New Jersey, and she ended up having her wedding reception (about 5 years ago) at the Brownstone. I'm so jealous, haha!

how long did they tape this season? was it like 2 weeks or 2 months?

i know the magic of editing and whatnot... but i feel like i'm watching danielle in the middle of a breakdown. i would hate to think she acted this way for months and months on end (although she's clearly BEEN crazy for a while)...

i hope the season was taped and wrapped quickly and we're just seeing the foolishness long and drawn out - if that makes sense.

I believe D has acted this way for years on end.

Answer to the question as to why Danielle was so definite and/or defensive that her boob job was a MEDICAL procedure and not cosmetic: So that her medical insurance would pay a major part of the procedure and she could, if she is able to depending on income etc. write off the rest of it on her income tax.

Not for nothing do I live in SoCal.

And, the salary difference is because Jill (and I believe the rest of the RHNYC) have better lawyers.

I love Caroline. Her speech to her son (the one with learning disabilities) should be the played for every kid who has to fight learning challenges if their parents aren't able to do it.

(Don't particularly like/watch OC and Atlanta....but these two shows...uh yes!)

And the reason that RHNYC is introducing new women as tryouts is because Bethenny is leaving the show to do her own show.

I'm so hooked on this show...I can't wait until tomorrow night!!

Yikes. Tonight's episode was like the NY episode when Kelly had a complete meltdown, in that I almost feel like it's inappropriate for a reality show [disclaimer: I still watched it!].

I feel like I'm watching someone have a complete mental breakdown and I'm wrestling with whether I should be watching this on tv for entertainment. Danielle shouldn't be a cast member on a show like this; she's not mentally or emotionally healthy at all. When she started talking about how the other women were on a mission to "kill Danielle" I just kept thinking of when Kelly thought Bethenny was coming after her.

Please note: Danielle has appeared, quite gleefully (pun possibly intended: see below) in the Watch What Happens this season. Kelly didn't appear in a Watch episode, and was quite subdued during the Reunion epsiodes. Danielle promoed her song, which was (contrary to her behavior in this and other seasons) had, as I understand it, lesbian overtones. (I haven't stayed awake long enough to watch the dvr'd episode.) The NJ was filmed months ago, so Danielle has made a remarkable recovery.

Danielle is probably crazy, or at least borderline. But she is great TV and she knows it. Reality is personality driven and the ratings are excellent. So, I can't wait to see tonight's episode.

I feel the sorriest for her kids. I can't wait for their book.:D
