Real Housewives of New Jersey

Finally! This was the best episode yet. Yes, I’m still waiting for the turned over table scene, but this was pretty good. During the first few episodes I actually felt sorry for Danielle, but not so much anymore. Her reaction/answers to Jacqueline’s questions about the book, Cop Without a Badge, were evasive. She was avoiding the main questions, pouring Jacqueline drinks and telling her to “trust her feelings.” Translation: forget the facts and just listen to my con game. I don’t know what to think about Jacqueline. Is she an airhead or does she enjoy these games? I have never trusted “nicey nice” people, so I do not expect much from her either. She seems a bit phony.


Caroline and Dina are not so trustworthy either. In fact, I am more afraid of them than of Danielle. Dina is conniving and Caroline is the scary head of “the family.” With their background, one would think that they would not spend their time investigating others. Teresa appears innocent and to be interested in taking care of her girls and decorating her new home. However, it is noted that everything is paid for in cash. You never really know.


The dancing scene with Danielle and Albie was a bit bizarre. Danielle obviously has no respect for Caroline and her family. She may have even played it up to annoy Caroline, which is not surprising. I do not think she should have done this. Albie is young and she should really leave him out of their feud. If she has the hots for him, she needs to look in the mirror. I do not think an attractive guy his age would be interested in someone like Danielle. This is pathetic. Steve is another story. His choices are probably limited.


Teresa’s husband showed his ignorance with the gay slurs. This is one area where Danielle is correct. This shows how low class some of these people are, regardless of the amount of money they have and the lifestyles they can afford. How sad that Teresa defended him and was more worried about Danielle’s comments.


I think this show is going to get more interesting. I am looking forward to next week’s episode. I am not sure how many episodes are going to be shown this season, so I am wondering when we will see the big fight and the table scene. I am also interested in seeing all of the housewives together at the reunion show. I hope they renew this show for another season. I would love to hear what other people think about the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Until next time…
