I wonder if they even have that on tape...hmmm. That would be interesting to watch!

nice set.

I love this show so much. As my first season of Real Housewives I really think I picked a good one.

You did. NY was my favorite season until this one.

I only caught the reunion starting with the "mob" talk. I want to see it from the beginning.

Did anyone think Danielle looked sickly tonight?

She looked physically and/or emotionally fragile.

I just watched the entire reunion show. I look forward to part 2 on Thursday.

Yea, so sad :(

I can't believe Jaqueline is about to pop!!

Thursday is going to be good!

i already have my TiVo set.
can't wait.
and jaqueline looked so precious tonight!

I thought so too. I wonder if she's still having issues with money.

I also thought it was weird that Dina's husband Tommy didn't want to be part of the show. He was already on the wedding show? I guess the wedding show was a one-time deal and the RHNJ was an on-going thing?

She had the baby on June 11---Nicolas Francis Laurita.

I did feel soo bad for both Dina and Caroline about their father-in-law's murder. I <3333333 Caroline!

I can't wait to see what Danielle did that made Caroline cry! And seeing as how Jacqueline isn't sitting next to Danielle, I assumed it was bad enough.

NJ has officially surpassed my love for the OC season. Can't wait for pt 2 tomorrow!!

SMOKING GUN HAS THE GOODS ON DANIELLE
 

Thanks for the info ... yay for Jaqueline's new addition!

I am soooooooo looking forward to tomorrow night!

The smoking gun has the goods on Danielle ... it's long, but check it out HERE

Thanks for the link.

So I guess her story about it just being an issue of, "being in the wrong place at the wrong time," was not entirely accurate. ;)

DUDE!

I wanna know what Danielle DID!!

Caroline said she tried to get someone to do something to Dina?!

Oh is part 2 on now?

From rumors I've heard, Danielle slept with Dina's husband. Whatever it is, it really hurt Dina, and in turn, Caroline.

Also, I believe that she's had more than just botox and collagen injections.

Dina said something about "it didn't work" or "nothing came of it" or something like that while Caroline was talking & crying....

My first thought was Danielle tried to pull a Tanya Harding and tried to sabotage her business or something? But then that didn't make sense because idk how she would do that... I don't even think Danielle has a job.

oh... and I was thinking maybe Danielle put a hit out on Dina.

I'm checking out the Bravo blogs...

Danielle writes:
It seems silly to be pissed off about a phone number. Something tells me there is more to the story...

Yea cause you know, that's the safest kind!

I haven't seen it yet (or i might have missed that part) but if Jacqueline isn't sittng next to Danielle (and I doubt Caroline/Dina would make her sit next to them) then it must have been something big.

Caroline kept saying that it was something being done to Dina....so I assumed it was something like trying to get a hit on her (harsh i know) or like trying to get some dirt on Dina (maybe from her ex-husband or something) to try and spread it around.

I was able to see the part where Caroline cries, but I missed the part where she says she hopes her Bravo family "has the balls" to show ____. I don't know what the ____ was. :(

I haven't seen part 2 yet, it's on my DVR, but if I remember correctly, when Dina was on my big fat obnoxious wedding on VH1, didn't she say at one point that her and Tommy had broken up b/c he cheated on her. I thought that was part of her backstory. It's been so long though, I'd have to look it up at home on youtube or see if i can find it somewhere.

No she wasn't sitting near Danielle. There was a point in Part 1 of the reunion where the host asks Jaq about their friendship now, and by the way the two hesitated and said "where do we stand" I'm going to guess they no longer speak to each other.


Yea, Caroline said Danielle tried to get someone to do something to Dina, and Dina kept saying "it didn't work" and "nothing came of it".

In Dina's blog she said Danielle did two things that were harmful to "people who didn't sign on for the show" so maybe it did have something to do w/ Tommy??? Or maybe she was trying to get some dirt on Dina to pass to Tommy so he would divorce her or something? (hence the phone number and her ex-husband)

I never saw the "Bravo family has the balls" part either.

one of my chapter sisters lives in wayne, where danielle lives. here's the scoop.

evidently, dina's husband isn't on the show because what the cameras would capture is him having affairs with women in wayne and franklin lakes. danielle knows this and told anyone who would listen. but my chapter sister doesn't think that only this is contributing to the feud.

i have also heard that the phone number incident regarding dina's ex has to do with custody of lexi. supposedly, danielle tried to portray dina as an unfit mother and have lexi taken away from her.

Dina and Tommy's wedding episode is on WE right now!

The wedding was so over the top. It's pretty obvious that money does not buy class or taste. I found it extremely tacky for her to tell a guest that her bracelet alone cost half a million dollars. Who does that?

Tommy is a world class jerk and Dina is an idiot.

Has anyone seen the parody from Jamie-Lynn Sigler:

I am seriously laughing so hard at the video, Benzgirl. Not only do I love the show, but my family is just like this so it's extra funny. We're Italians from Philly (not quite as trashy as Jersey - just kidding! :)). My aunt embodies this stereotype with the big hair, hardcore Italian, strong personality, loud mouth, leopard/cheetah print everything....I'm told I'm just like her. Some say it's a bad thing, but I love my family :)

/end rant, back to the Housewives

Hey! Only those who suffer their presence have teh right to trash the guidos.
/hijack

Hahaha, trust me I've encountered many that drift over from S. Jersey. But I feel for you :(

A couple of months ago one of my brothers invited a whole bunch of us to his house for a party. Besides us it was all guidos. This is what one of my brothers wrote of the experience.

Read and enjoy.

Oooooh, I'm going to thorougly enjoy this. Thanks for feeding my procrastination/laziness :)


ETA: Best quote from this blog - "I want to say that I didn't think that Guidos are real, never in my life have I seen one. I thought they were just mythical creatures from Youtube." LMAO. Loved it - your friend is a great writer.
