NJ got a whole lot more interesting this week and it looks to get even better next week when Dina confronts Danielle. Danielle is so psychotic! Like Jacqueline said, she is a nutjob. She is delusional to think she actually has a good grasp on reailty. I couldnt beleive her behavior at the charity benefit and how she kept twisting things to rationalize everything that was said or happened as some calculated plot against her. This would needs some serious help, for real. Favorite line of the episode goes to Theresa: "Theresa only makes divas, not tomboys" LOL...I wonder what she would do if one of her princesses ended up a butch lesbian Another good one was when she was asked about getting a tattoo. "Would you put a bumper sticker on a bentley?"

Dina Manzo from NJ? Haha, I never noticed but she does kinda resmeble her in some pics (not so much this one)

I had major hate for Sheree season 1. She got alot more appealing in the 2nd season. I couldnt stand Kim. Im with the other housewives in their hate for Nne. Im up and down with Nene. She was my favorite in season 1 but didnt like how she tried to pick a feud with Kandi in season 2, who did nothing to her. I think she was just jealous to have another housewife on the show and of her friendship with Kim. IA that Kandi was boring in the bginning but I thougth she got better towards the end when she was more integrated with the rest. Its unfortunate to say, but I think her fiancee, AJ's death, helped solidify her place on the show and gave her an interesting story.

You dont like Kandi? I love her! I think all the old housewives are returning. You can see the 2 new housewives here: http://www.examiner.com/x-20879-The-Real-Housewives-Examiner~y2010m4d1-Meet-your-2-new-Atlanta-Housewives-Cynthia-Bailey-and-Phaedra-Parks You should check out the NJ trailer. Cant wait for the drama in this unfold http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z2QXd86oGs

yes. You should check them out. ATL was the first one that I watched and got me into the franchise but this season of NY is better than last season of ATL. NJ started off slow but its coming along as well. Im not sure when ATL will return but it should be interesting especially with the drama thats happened since, like with Nene's family. Kim turning into a lesbian (probably for show! lol) 2 new housewives joining and Victoria Rowell possibly as a recurring housewife.

NY: Kelly's meltdown was crazy. I knew she had her issues with Bethennny but I thought she put them to rest. Her behavior was uncalled for and over the top. I liked her before these last 2 episodes, but not so sure now I have to say Im liking Sonja. I think the show needs her and she seems like she will be very interesting going into the future. The other new housewife that debuted a few weeks ago, I wasnt really feeling, but at least she didnt become a main one yet NJ: Danielle is pathetic. I couldnt beleive she held a seat for Jacqueline and Dina at the luncheon and proceed to make big speech about them not being there. Get a life already. Did you see the preview with the gun and Danielle looking like she's about to call out a hit. This show is crazy....lol

Marie Alice Reasner was a bad recast. She played Ellen as if she got a lobotomy. It was like a new character and I didnt like the direction they took her in. One thing that bothered me was that the show never explained her connection to Rachel. They had some tie in the past that wasnt reveal. Ellen was soon written out and Rachel got her apartment. Do you have any idea where the writers were going with that?

I thought Matt's relationship with Ellen was rather boring. I thought it kept them both from being interesting. I thought they were better in the beginning before they got together and proabbly could have shined had they been with different people

I hated how they started repeating Fallon's stories with Amanda. Amanda and Dex screamed of what they did earlier with Mark Jennings. They get involevd in a triangle with Clay Fallmont in season 6. I cant remember them having much to do with each other before this. Unfortunately Oxenberg doesnt get to finish it out as the recast Amanda was thrown in towards the end What did you think of Kirby? I hated her character and she ranks up there as one of the more annoying characters

LOL....just be glad like me, you are watching it in rerun blocks so it goes faster. Im sure it must have been torture for those who had to watch it originally. It lasts for a good 4-5 months

For Dynasty yea. The show was heavily structured in 80s culture and style. From the lavish gowns, musical cues, outrageous hairstyles, it was an exagerated look at a specific lifestyle most identifiable with that time period. Season 9 came at the very tale end of that and the style, fashion, hair, music, etc... was noticeably different from what came before. Those were more toned down bc it was no longer relevant with how the country and atmosphere had chagned in that decade. Dynasty adjusted with the changing times and I thoguht it was done rather well.

Im not sure who did the mini series. I dont beleive Ive ever seen the entire thing as Soapnet didnt air it. As for Rita, I think the problem was that it wenton for far too long. I just looked at the summaries and she's still around nearly 20 episodes into the season which is about 2/3s of it. It dumbed down the other characters to fall for act. It really should have lasted a few weeks, not months like it did

IIts been said that the Massacre killed the show but I done beleive that. Season 6 was good in spite of it. Season 7 was decent and the Adam/Dana romance was the best thing about it. They had a great story arc, especially when Adam's parentage comes into question. I also liked the introduction of Caress, Alexis' sister. She had potential to be a good rival for her, but she didnt last too long and they didnt fully execute it. Season 8, however was an outright mess. Jeff adn Fallon returned and for some reason they decided to follow through with the Colby finale which had Fallon abducted by a UFO. That was too campy adn ridiculous even for Dynasty. This season also featured alot of Leslie, who was downright horrible. I cant remember much else but Dana/Adam once again remain the strong point of it and probably are the only saving grace. Season 9 was different. Much better than 8, but different. You can tell Dynasty was moving out of the 80s and into the 90s. The clothes, the style and the theme changed. It was inevitable. The show lost Krystal and Alexis only appeared part time. Its why Sable was brought in as a semi-replacement for the 2 and she fit in well. There was a season long mystery which was told effectively and if you've paid attention, its something that was first introduced going back to the beginning of the series. Emma Samms finally comes into her own as Fallon and she shines. Dynasty never got as good or big as it once was, but it ended on a high with good writing and intersting cliffhangers, which wont get resolved until the miniseries 2 years later

I belevie it was season 6. The Rita mess was the last real rotten thing she did. After that, I think the writers felt they kinda had to redeem her or write her out. She spent the rest of the season trying to make ammends and she got into that triangle with Amanda and Clay and by season 7, she was one of the show's heroines going from romantic pairing to the next. I did like her with Clay for the short bit that it lasted, but it was obvious her character was sizzling out. Im surprised she made it all the way to the end. Her rivalry with Fallon could have been intersted had they developed it more.

You guys remember Leslie Carrington? She was defiently one of the worst characters if not the worst. I downright hated her and found her beyond annoying and despicable WHAT! Sammi Jo rocks. Hands down one of the best characters on Dynasty. Enjoy her now while she's bad and fun bc she eventually goes soft and gets redeemed. She mad the perfect little gold digging biyatch in the beginning

Wow, I watch Heroes and never realized that Noah was Steven from Dynasty I belevie The Colbys, starts during season 5 of Dynasty. Theres one episode of Dynasty in which the Colbys attend a party at the Carrington mansion which is a pseudo-pilot for the show. Jeff thinks he sees Fallon and that begins him transitioning over. Emma definetly didnt look the part of Fallon. The short hair was bad and she had some weight on her. Fallon also felt off. When she returns full time to Dynasty in season 8, her stories sucked and she even wetn blonde for a little bit. That all changes in season 9 and she shines. She got a makeover, complete with longer hair, a slimmer figure and she was written more like the sexy vixen she was in the earlier seasons. Its too bad it took so long for them to get a handle on the character with her in the role

I didnt like the Steven recast. I thought Al Corley was a better looking man and a better actor. The recast lacked the vulnerability he brought to the role and came across as too much of a douchebag at times Pamela Sue Martin as Fallon was only great in season 1 and 2. She was the selfish head bitch of Dynasty but the introduction of Alexis diminished that role. The sparring and banter between mother and daughter kept her character interesting in season 2, but by season 3 she started to lose some of her steam. Her antics and games with Jeff got old and she was pretty bland in season 4. Fallon doesnt regain her fire and become intersting again until the final season, ironically when Joan Collin only appears part time as Alexis The recast of Amanda was the WORST recast in the history of primetime television. The girl was terrible. I read they literally found her waiting tables and thrust her into the show. They gave her Fallon's old storyline with the limo driver from season 1, but she didnt pull it off nearly as interesting. She only lasted a few episodes bc she was so dreadful and was never heard from again How great was the character of Dana? She and Adam were my favorite couple. She was amazing and I was sad to see her go. Those two had a great story and she was the one woman to tame the bad boy while still keeping him intersting. Those 2 rocked together and were the best thin about the duller later seasons Claudia sucked. She was always so bland and boring. Her character was such a pushover and felt like an interloper who didnt belong Downgrade indeed. She didnt even have a British accent and that made Amanda lose her sophisticated upper class appeal. The new girl was just too common. Heres a clip of her http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-81HDIlz_c&feature=related

Who watched the premiere of NJ. Im surprised this is already airing when NY hasnt even finished. Danielle needs to get a life! I cant stand her. She says she doesnt care about not being invited to the party, yet she drives around and was planning on going there to see who showed up? What I hate about her the most is that she drags her kids into her drama. Like last season bringing them to the dinner knowing full well she was going to start a fight. Why expose your children to that? Jacqueline continues to be my favorite. Her baby is adorable. Her daughter is a brat however. What an ungrateful twit. She really needs to get a clue and start showing her mother some more respect. I saw that Dina's daughter isnt in the opening. Im guessing she wont be on this season. Thats too bad bc I liked their relationship. Dina may act like a bitch but when around Lexie, she turns into a big softie. Oh and I loved her cat...lol. I never saw one look like that before...lol Theresa is even better this season. She had some funny liness. Love her daughters and that joke about having a gay son and shopping with him...lol I really wish they'd have brought in a new housewives. It feels too much like the family vs Danielle, which I fear will get old. Maybe add someone in Danielle's corner so she doesnt look so pathetic. Overall I liked the premiere but it doesnt hold a candle to NY. It looks like the drama will come later in the season and I cant wait.

I LOVE this show! Alex's message has got to be the BEST moment of the season. Who knew she had it in her to be such a b-tch? What killed me though is how those heffers wouldnt STFU. It took damn near 10 minutes for Alex to spit it out. The reaction was great and I couldnt help but laugh at Jill. The b-tch deserved it.

IA, I loved NZ. I HATED the character of Gwen in the beginning but she brought so much more depth to the character that she got me to like her. I put all the credit on me even liking Liza's Gwen on her

early 2000 was an amazing time for the show. I loved the Nurses Strike, Chris and Julie's romance and Rachel getting more devious

Oh gawd, she was awful. I think her name was Jackie. Thank goodness she didnt last long at all My all time favorite slap of the series "Alexis, I didn't thank you for your present" SLAP! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPea1Uqvalg

Anyone else love Caress, Alexis' sister? I really wish she had stayed longer and had been expanded I loved the Dominique vs Alexis catfight, especially the dog's reactions...lol

I beleive that happened on the Cosby Show

I loved when Rudy crossed over and Denise got jealous bc she liked Whitley more. I liked that story she told her of some snow princess
