The problem (or one of the problems) between Teresa and her brother is as old as time: perceived or real favoritism by their parents toward Teresa and her husband.

Joe Gorga disgusts me. The way he kept making the sexual references on the show was gross as was his "subtle" way of trying to talk Melissa into having sex all the time. My favorite was when he came home & wouldn't talk to her b/c he was pissed she didn't have sex with him the night before. Seriously?!?

I also wanted so badly to punch Ashley in the face for her immaturity. Oh boo freaking hoo! Cry me a river! She bitches & whines all the time about EVERYTHING including her broken home background. Sorry but coming from a broken home does not give the your right to act like a spoiled whiny brat. I can't stand her! Jacqueline & Chris need to stop coddling her & throw her ass out into the real world.

^^^^I bet she gets one, even though they know she doesn't need to be handed anything else.

There's not a single worthwhile human being on this show. They all disgust me.

Here's my take:

Melissa appears to be that wife that only wants her husband to be down with her and her family. Instead of wholeheartedly encouraging her husband to get back together with his family (instead she talks negatively which doesn't help), she secretly likes things just the way they are; this way her husband will cling only to her and her family. I so can't stand insecure women like this and the men who are dumb enough to fall for it and reject their own families. Hopefully this isn't going to be the case. Right now, I'm not loving Melissa at all, seems very catty but wants to appear innocent of everything. Melissa's sisters seem catty as well and seem to love the Gorga/Guidice drama. Can you believe the one at the beginning of the fight who hollered "I think it was a technicality!" when Theresa asked why did Joe invite her. How dare she involve herself. That's really when the whole thing got started.

Theresa is strong for keeping her head up despite her very public financial issues but she and her brother need to realize that both of them have a part to play in the decline of their relationship.

Kathy appears soooo sweet and like the peacemaker but really just adds fuel to the fire. She wants to help I think but also wants to put all the blame on Theresa and her family - she can't see that there are two sides to every story I guess. The funny thing is that she has her friends and family fooled - they think she is so innocent. It was hilarious that her husband bought her a car because she's always being the peacemaker...LOL!

Joe Gorga is definitely suffering from the "whoa is me, my parents love my sister and brother-in-law more than me" syndrome. He also needs to stop treating his wife like she is running on batteries after dealing with kids and a household all day. If he wants more sex, he'd better try helping her with the kids more so she has more energy.

Joe Guidice did what most guys would do when their wife is being attacked by more than one person and one VERY angry one...open a can of whoop ass! So I'm not mad at him. In my opinion the fight was Joe Gorga's fault - he needs some therapy for his deep rooted issues with his family.

Kim G. is a huge gossip and trouble maker and needs to sit her ass down and mind her own business. Anyone who would root for a family to stay broken up and fight with eachother is disgusting.

Ashley needs tough love in the form of an ass kicking. She is disgustingly spoiled and needs to learn that we all work to overcome our circumstances and get what we want out of life. No one owes us anything.

"Where's my food bitch?"

Wow. Melissa just set Italian women back decades with that stupid asshat statement. Also, cooking in a mink apron? Who is she trying to kid? She tries too hard. As for her husband, a mechanical bull was so stupid. Jeez. Her side of the family screams for attention and camera time.

I did enjoy seeing Ashley get knocked down a peg by Chris and Albie who did NOT sympathize with her b.s. about not having a car or being able to get to work in time.

I have to disagree here ...

I really like Melissa. I don't know, she seems genuinely, ... uh, genuine. (Yeah, that works ... ) She has a lovely disposition about her, and I honestly believe she doesn't necessarily WANT to cause drama. For one, she truly loves her husband, and we all know that Teresa needs anger management.

I like Joe Gorga. He's so funny to me. I'll admit, though, the whole "I got all this poison in my body," was a bit much, but I think he's basically just hurt because Teresa became VERY popular as a result of the show, and she deserted her REAL family. I do hope they manage to rekindle their relationship throughout the season somehow, but part of me feels like Teresa is VERY uncomfortable with the fact that Bravo! decided to cast her brother and his wife when she herself had ignored them in the past. Just my thoughts.

Yeah, I read Jacqueline's blog and I still don't understand. They bought it for her to try to teacher her responsibility...ummm...yeah. That didn't work out so well last time they bought her a car. Idiots! I was surprised Chris caved since he seems to be the rational and level-headed one in the family. *facepalm*

Why was Melissa being such a bitch at the gymnastics meet? It seemed like Joe & Teresa were tentatively reaching out and getting along and then she goes and poisons his mind when they get home about being disrespected? WTH? She was the one with the pissy look on her face & ignoring everyone. I can't stand her!

I miss Dina. I didn't care for her in the beginning but after watching these women more and more, I miss her.

Finally, has anyone else been reading the blogs? Jah Mohr's blogs are hilarious! I also laughed reading Teresa's when she calls Melissa out on her ever-changing stories. I like that Caroline is staying out of that messy drama. Good for her!

I've only seen the first five minutes of this episode...thank God for dvr. Explain something: Other than trying to get a record deal (duh) why does Melissa break into Amazing Grace in the middle of the bedroom.

If you live here and break out into song for the heck of it people think you are a crazy person or a record company exec is on the horizon. We avert our eyes and walk around/away from you. Oh right, she is...crazy.

The gymnastics meet was so sad to me. It's sad that all the kids wanted to do is see each other but their parents can't get along.

Teresa and others can't even avoid legal issues while on vacation in the Dominican Republic.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/entert...kTH_story.html

I wonder how people can declare bankruptcy and afford to go on a vacation and then offer people $37,000 for medical bills and other settlements. I wish I could have a "fresh start" that included a tropical vacation. Oh wait, I don't physically attack people and need a brand new house full of ugly tchotchkes because of "cleansyness" so I'll just go to my job every day and not be a shameful embarrassment on Bravo.

I don't understand how one can file bankruptcy for millions of dollars and still drive a Mercedes and live in a huge house.

And Theresa's Skinny Italian is just so desperate to be the next bethenny frankel.
