The finale of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New Jersey just finished airing, in what is arguably the most dramatic episode ever of The Real Housewives franchise.
Thoughts on this episode -
1) I was very impressed with Caroline trying to make some peace, and giving Danielle a chance to speak her mind.
2) Danielle, oh Danielle, had absolutely no business bringing that book to the dinner table. Just when you start to feel sorry for her, she pulls this stunt. It was good to see her attempt to stand up for herself, but she chose the wrong place and time.
3) Very surprised to see Jacqueline stand up to Dina, and defend Danielle. I choose to believe Jacqueline on this one. Dina comes across as the lying type. I believe Caroline was lying to protect her little sister.
4) Teresa was way out of line for the table flipping. Very unnecessary and just way over the top.
5) It was great seeing Jacqueline’s husband and brother to Caroline & Dina, Chris, speaking some sense at the end. He said it best when he said – “You’re all acting like a bunch of fools.”
6) With that said, I’m ready for season two. Jacqueline continues to remain my favorite. Caroline impressed me with this finale.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS FINALE?
Danielle was way out of line and owes Teresa an apology, a time and a place for everything and it was not the time or the place. Danielle has let her dislike for Dina cloud her judgment and her past is not Dina’s fault it is her own. Jacqueline needs to grow up and realize that blood is thicker than water and Danielle is trouble.
Oh for gods sake people wake up and smell the cofee, ok.. caroline tried to let danielle talk only because she got into gossiping and trying to be a big mafio. Italian. ok, what I went away from the show was that Dina is the real nut,and danielle has a friggin past big deal and teresa saying she has no past , lmao , her husband and her throwing around cash like noone is paying taxes, and its all just good ole money, yea right… she gets fake boobs, big surprise, the little girls act more mature than she does, and I wouldn’t be afraid of teresa and her temper tantrum, she invited danielle, at least her children know there mother, and are best friends on level that is not paronia, like dina /w/lexie/ issues she has, to make danielle seem unwanted like the clan always did, the speculations and gossip, caroline and her big mouth needs taken down a notch, I am not intimadated by any one of them, I got class, and can be the center of attention and when everyone knows are wants to know my business I must be doing something right, noone is a angel, NOONE, and your on tv.. for a reason its called the housewifes, so all of you need to remember, that, the economy is not at its greatest and to see people abusing authority and acting like mobsters, and than they wanna drag down, someone else, can you say JEALOUSY, glad that Jaqueline and Chris have there new addition, as far as Teresa dont live in a house someone else lived in that’s just gross… running around acting like your the best looking bubble head jersey girl, your still a Jersey Girl, dont get ahead of yourself, sounds like you got the some past yourself you live in fantasies, and if everything’s going your way, well if not go nuts!! end of story , will I watch again yes to see Jaqueline and Danielle, as for as the rest same old same old… bye bye… victory to Danielle and Jaqueline, Loved chris, I can see why he is the best!! muahh.. girls..
Tonight’s show definitely ended things with a bang. It is obvious that Danielle has some issues, but don’t most have a past of some sort they would prefer to keep private, and most definitely not having some bitch air on national tv. Dina comes off as the fakest beyotch on the show, she needs to be put in her place and perhaps some of her dirt will turn up. What kind of person tries that hard to ruin someone else, a very cold hearted and vindictive one. Caroline is like the godmother, clearly lying but also clearly doesn’t care if you know that either. Jacqueline is the the most normal and best hearted of all these women, she is still “real”. The crazy chick who threw the table, she is over the top in every way possible, totally tacky and a big ole cliche. Entertaining but they need to mix it up with some new blood next season, and maybe more fun.
All I can say is HOLY CRAP!!! – Danielle is such a trainwreck to watch – very entertaining. She’s also a pathological liar. She needs to realize in this day & age with the internet everything can be confirmed. She stated she was in wrong place at the wrong time and that the house was so huge she didn’t know what was going on when arrested. Huge Lie – According to Miami Herald (June 24, 1986) she was arrested at 8265 SW 45th St.,Miami a quick search on zillow shows the shack that she was arrested in. In that same house the FBI found 10 kilos of cocaine with scales, $16,000 in cash & seven home made explosive devices that were equivalent to 2 1/2 sticks of dynamite. Also, you do not receive five years probation for nothing – she was charged with a crime. As far as her being a professional dancer – I guess being a stripper is a profession. Alot of her past stripper friends are starting to blog on other sites. Her modeling career – I mean look at her and why did they blurr out the photos? She also stated she worked for Ford Agency – they have no record of her.
I really feel sorry for her kids – they always look so sad. But Danielle is to manipulative, calculating, controlling & self centered to see what she is doing to them.
Danielle is a pig and always will be. She was recently at the TIKI BAR on the boardwalk in Point Pleasant – All I can say is she was very entertaining to watch – She is really clueless.
Jersey girl, looks like your the same as anyone in Jersey, lets just say, your version of events, oh you looked her up on the internet, who cares its a tv show, you tear people down too, her kids love her Jersey girl, and some of those qualities I would want in life, that you run your mouth about, lets do a background on you, believe ever tail you hear and judge and be clueless, who cares what she does to survive, I hate to say it, but stripper I doubt she proved she has classical dance skills, as a dancer one can tell, who cares about the TIKI bar,she is single got that, and the kids love her, so if it wasnt for her, the show wouldn’t be a sucess, everyone has opinions yours are well, too much into the past everyone has one, you prob do, she was not a mother end of story, let it go.. books that are even out of print, come to haunt someone vicious to write them, and hopefully you sinless, and the mother Teresa jersey girl, or one of the housewives, the point was to evaluate the show, picking one apart is typical in america, get a clue, love like I said jaqueline and danielle regardless she is human, she is the first to have a black american express card in Jersey fact, now dig that up, give me a break, I disagree w/ your assesment but thats ok, I just hope you never get your life plastered, are you sinless… lol… keep watching lets see Danielle, go… and you be jealous and judgemental…. bravo..!!~
I find it absolutely absurd that Dina and Caroline feel they are in a position to judge someone else. They are so busy trying to air other people’s dirty laundry when they should take a closer look at the skeletons in their own closets. It is a well known fact that their father in law was the victim of a mob hit back in the 80′s. So for Dina to say she would not be close friends with anyone who knows a person like Danielle is ludicrous … you married one.
Teresa, you owe money to several people and businesses. Why are you and your husband such deadbeats? And what does your husband do for a living exactly? Your new house looks absolutely ghastly. You have no style or class. Clearly, everything in your house fell off the back of a truck.
Dina, just come out with it. Your ‘husband’ has left you.
michele: you sound absolutely crazy. learn. to use. periods. as for danielle, she definitely has a sad, sordid past and teresa was right — it wasn’t just “I got arrested by accident and I changed my name.” you would only change your name if you’d done some really, really bad stuff. I actually felt sorry for jacqueline because she seems to trust danielle so implicitly. jacqueline is so innocent it’s almost pathetic. her teenage daughter steamrolls her. all will be revealed in time.
Wow, I think they are all trash. And where does Carolina and Dina get off judging Danielle when their own Father In Law was knocked off by the Mob and are friends with the biggest MOB crook in NYCITY, Bernie. WHAT A JOKE…
Caroline must be really parnoid to feel she needs attack German Shepherds after her Reality Show. She disgusts me with her clevage and boobs falling out of her clothes, same with her fat ass daughter, The fat ASS Bride Bitch. Get on a diet, both of you, and cover your boobs. It is really sick to hear your own son/brother compare size of Mom’s boobs with friends and if they are real or not.
Strip club? My my….aren’t we taking after Great Grand Daddy…All strip clubs in Jersey are operated by the Mob. Ole Christopher, following in Grand Pa’s foot steps. Sleazy…way to make a buck.
Tersea..My God, your house is an accident waiting to happen. One of you or all of you will eventually slip on those floors..and break your backs…what an idiot….put some water on those floors and you will give Water Parks a run for their money.
Tersea is garbage…and I am sick to death of her wig…hanging half way done her foreheard. She has kinky hair…and wigs it…and she totally lost her WIG last night, when she flipped the table peppered with F bombs…Her Children must be so proud of her.
WHAT LOSERS…Bravo………..and I thought Atlanta wives was Gross, this one takes the cake.
This was, hands down, the absolute BEST Real Housewives episode of any of the franchises I have ever watched. Who cares who did what or who lied about about or any of it. In this tragic economy, when there is so much to be sad about, last night gave me an hour to escape and be truly entertained. If any of this is true or stages – who cares. It was great. If it was true – family will work it out with family and if it was stages – BRAVO to BRAVO. It worked. I personally cannot wait until next season. No one could compare to these ladies. That being said, I will go on record – I adore Dina and Caroline. Who cares if they were lying or telling the truth. It was great television. I love Teresa – so what if her husband is connected. For those of you who condemn her, I find it interesting that you watched and were so quick to judge. Her husband is great. Sweet little Jacqueline – what a precious angel. I only wish he the best. As far as Danielle goes – well, they know a good ratings whore and I mean WHORE when they have one and regardless as to what we all think about her, she is the only one we can truly document as having a seedy past. So what. Who doesn’t have anything to hide. Good luck gals – please spend the rest of this summmer thinking of juicy ways to entertain us and take our minds off what is going on in the rest of the world. Again – BRAVO to BRAVO!!!
Caroline & Dina are an embarrassment to that family…..two lying snakes who bully people.
Teresa is just a cheesy psycho, she needs medication. She will never have class.
Danielle had every right to bring up the book to all of them and clear the air. She is a trainwreck I cannot resist watching.
Jacqueline and her husband are the true heros on this show!!!! I was cheering for her when she stood up to fat bully Caroline, Go Jacquelin!!!!
That was the absolute best seeing her not back down insisting that “the truth is the truth”…..and even better her husband backing her up.
They are obviously the only members of this family with honor and integrity. TEAM JACQUELINE!!!!!!
WAY TO GO JERSEY GIRLS – YOUR #1!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bravo is airing 2 xtra shows after next week. Check out the NY POST.
I’m with JERSEY GIRL and I think that Michele is really Danielle.
LOL…I love Dina and Caroline and Tersea, and Caroline’s daughter is a very attractive girl
Ok I watched the lost footage last night and my opinion has not changed. Dina & Caroline are pathetic losers who were called out on their lies (what a coward Dina was trying to simper out of the room, ha! ha!).
I am so glad Jacqueline busted them both and did not back down to their bullying….I was cheering when Jacqueline stood up to them, it was the best part of the show!
Teresa is truly a psychotic idiot….she had no right to be mad at Danielle when she corrected her stupid, bigoted husband (who only confirmed what a bigot he was when she tried to make him look like he liked gays, duh he is a moron).
Then Teresa is obviously not paying attention but still wants to jump in on the action, she wasn’t listening….HELLO!?!?! She totally is a psycho overreacting and acting like trailer trash.
She and her husband are complete ignorant, unclassy trailer trash who obviously do not have money legitimately, they are gross and slimey.
Danielle is weird, and I really don’t think she should have exposed her kids to what happened in that room, that was sad. But I also felt bad for her being attacked endlessly by the 3 trolls.
Jacquline and Chris ROCK!!!! They are absolutely adorable, normal, have a real loving marriage, they have integrity and were not going to lie for their sleazy family.
Go Jacqueline & Chris……they are my favorites!!!!!!
The only person who handled themselves with class that night was Jacqueline. The other housewives are a disgrace to all housewives. I am a mother of 3 and I would NEVER ever think to ever act like that….I was raised to be a lady I guess.
And teresa with her psycho behavior (her children OBVIOUSLY heard her screaming at the top of her lungs, what a crappy mother) was truly like watching Jerry Springer, she is trailer trash at it’s worst and I feel bad for her girls having such a trashy, unclassy mother.
Caroline is a lying bully and Dina is the pathetic, spineless wimp who hides behind her……so pathetic it’s hard to watch. Then Dina likes to turn around and threaten to “kick someone’s ass” and then runs behind Caroline, lol……yeah REAL CLASSY.
What grown woman would ever threaten to kick somemone’s ass? They embarrass and humiliate their children on this show and one day when they see this show they will see their mothers for the trailer trash they really are, gee hope it was worth it.
Jacqueline…..oh I love this woman. She is herself, down to earth, grounded, loving, kind, is the only one with a genuinely real marriage that is loving and she has HONOR and is HONEST.
Jacqueline is the hero on that show, love her and I am so happy she had her baby with her equally as wonderful husband. They are both a class act.
When it comes to being a sociopath, Danielle reminds me of Ailea from ‘The Bad Girl’s Club’, only worse, since unlike Ailea, she is a mother. She appears to be amoral with a massive dose of narcissism thrown in. No doubt her daughters have to tip-toe around her while saddled with having to play the roles of her ‘best friends’, as well as that of her parents.
Danielle is one of the more disturbed figures to appear on a successful reality-tv franchise.
Teresa is the worst trailer trash I have seen on reality tv, she really belongs on Jerry Springer. I feel bad for her girls having such a trashy, unclassy mother.
And she never was even listening to what was going on so someone needed to tell her to shut her trap and LISTEN, what a moron.
And then defending her moronic, gay bashing husband???? They are both the most unclassy, trashiest couple ever.
And you know since both of them are not the brightest bulbs that thier money fell off a truck and is NOT legitimate……they are slimebags. Hope the FEDS bust them.
Who are you kidding. Danielle is a “wanna-be”. Who ever married her had to have his head examined. She is a Whore. If you spent time in your life having sex with a 1000 men, snorting coke, and stripping in clubs, you are a whore. Who cares if it is 5, 10, or 25 years later.
You can not make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
Who in their right mind would go on national TV, with a past like that. She knew it would catch up with her.
She changed her name years ago to hide from people she was involved with. Then expects everyone else to take it with a grain of salt.
She is looking for a way to make a seedy buck, anyway she can. She could care less what impact it has on her daughters. She is worse than a train wreck, she is a nutjob, with dangerous friends from her past.
I don’t think she would have gone on the show if all the stuff in the book was true. She said she wasn’t a prostitute anyway.
I think she is nutty for sure but dangerous? No way and certainly no danger to the freakin mafia family on this show.
Teresa should be more concerned about all the cash lying around her house and everything in that house probably fell off a truck.
It is totally hypocritical that they “fear” Danielle…..that is the biggest joke, lol. If this family is so afraid then go make money LEGITIMATELY like most honest, hard working people.
If Danielle were really trouble she would have been in trouble more than that instance, I think the fact that it happened once and 25 years ago probably means she was hanging with the wrong people.
Obviously she learned from it.
I love Joe, Teresa’s husband. He is really adorable with her, and it’s great that he gives her lots of money. Teresa was a rich woman right out of the Roman Empire in a previous life. Her house looks like a Roman temple right out of Caligula. When she stands up on the balcony surveying her empire, she says “I like it up here!”.. of course. I think she will be the new Kendra, and they will give her her own show. I like Dina very much. She’s just trying to have a life and I love her relationship with her daughter. Caroline is real. She has her faults, but she’s kind and you simply must watch her when she’s on the screen. Jacqueline is just a very naive woman. She is a very poor judge of people and she doesn’t know very much about how destructive people can be, especially with their children. Her husband babies her and overprotects her. She will probably stay a dope for a long time…or until someone really hurts her or her kids. She lit into Dina at the dinner because she had been intimidated by Dina at the Ladybug benefit. This festered inside of her, and she finally let it out. She is too weak and fearful to deal in a fair way. Danielle is a hoodlum from way back. She is attracted to the hoodlum component in this family and wants to be part of it, but she is way too crazy to fit in.
Jacqueline is the only person on this show with class, honor and integrity…..and also the only one with a real marriage that is good.
I think Dina, Teresa & Caroline are miserable people to begin with and they try to fill their void up with material things but it just doesn’t work.
Maybe because they know the money they have fell off a truck so their is no integrity in any of their things because those things really aren’t theirs to begin with.
It is painfully obvious none of them are educated, particulary Teresa & Joe, they are ignorant thugs who will never have class or decency.
Dina’s sugar daddy is with every other woman but her so she is probably more miserable than anyone else, her mariage is a sham.
Danielle needs a good therapist. I think she is honest with a good heart but she keeps hanging around the wrong people and hurting herself. She has absolutely horrible taste in men, yuk.
danielle is gorgeous and far too paranoid in trying to get into this family as a friend. who cares about her past whether or not the book is true or false.teresa is an airhead but cute and funny, and has a classy guy as her mate. caroline is fine but she is trying to be the alpha male dog and no one has asked her to be. see how she coward when her brother told her to shut up.she also is very phony and its quite obvious she is being egged on by show producers. jacq. is a nice lady with a great guy for a husband.dina is a very beautiful dame like danielle but she should be less confrontational – she loses her beauty. all the gals are lying to a point to save their skeletons.danielle would be less a threat to the manzos than their already mob ties.we all have a past. love to see both dina and danielle in a nude mag. If i only had money id charge after dina like crazy horse charged after custer.
Danielle had, as you say, no business bringing the book unless her intent was to stir the sh!t. Clearly, that’s exactly what she had in mind.
I wish Teresa had, instead of flipping the table, simply stood up and asked for the check when the book hit the tabletop. But then they’d have been stuck for another 40 minutes of time to fill.
