Instead of suing, why doesn't she just.... ask? They kept the knowledge of the money's existence a secret. Maybe once they realize she knows about it, they'd just cave in.

I agree. I thought it was weird that we didn't see Peter Parros at all during Veronica's long, lengthy speech about her past miscarriages and whatnot. A real father would've stepped in and stopped his wife from basically saying to her own son that she wishes he was never born. Hell, I woulda smacked her around a lil bit. It's funny, the typical uppity ice queen that Veronica is. During her interactions with her family (like telling Jeffrey not to walk around looking disheveled; they have an image to maintain), I thought outloud, "has this woman ever farted in front of her husband?"

Jersey is all about ostracizing one person. Who would they single out next if Teresa left but the same 4 hags remained?

What year is this from? If it's from the mid-80's, I'm surprised there's only 1 original castmember left when it only debuted in '83. I always thought Loving's biggest problem was the title of the series itself. So uninspired and dull.

Ramona has been tweeting that the girls trip they just took together for NYC was epic. Looking forward to these ladies returning! So ready for Jersey to wrap up. They're still doing another week at the Arizona retreat next week? Ugh... How fitting that Teresa and Melissa were the 2 housewives who couldn't get the horse to trust them during that exercise. They're the main cause of why they're all there, and they're getting the least out of these exercises.

Thanks!! Nice numbers! Danielle Staub on WWHL?? LUV!!! She is my favorite kind of crazy. The true definition of train wreck television

What did OC's reunions get? I was all for Brianna coming for Brooks. Yeah, that comment telling her husband to beat her says it all.

Argh!!!! I heard NYC Season 1 had re-aired after I left the house so I couldn't TiVo it. I have yet to see that reunion. Isn't it in a rinky-dink location?

I can't wait for next week, from the previews. When Wyatt is like "don't you wanna sleep with me?" to Jeffrey. Total set-up. Love this crap. And when Jeffrey slipped and said "me" in regards to people who want to sleep with him... dead. What a hot mess.

Sheree just might be stupid enough to do it... as long as a paycheck is involved.

I agree. Seasons 1&2 were the only worthwhile seasons of New Jersey. I like re-watching them. It was mostly lighthearted fun with the shadow of Danielle's looney tunes paranoia, but it was just funny to watch. I own 1 & 2 on DVD (yay, Target!) but would never think of buying 3, 4, etc... Re: OC's Lydia. Count me in as a fan overall. She is nothing like Alexis. Alexis has no relevance. Lydia has inched her way in. She thinks for herself (and she can actually THINK) and really tells it like it is, kind of like as the audience's point of view. I grew to like her. And her mother. They'd be wise to keep her so she can duke it out with Heather and Gretchen/Douche Lord.

LOL I like my milk-chocolate soap hunks what can I say

I still think of Jenny McCarthy as young. Guess it's just the 90's kid in me refusing to grow up. Does she still do fart jokes? Cuz that's what I think of when I see her: raunchy immaturity. That new promo shot doesn't inspire me. It's like looking at a later years cast of Dynasty, after their heyday was over and you're picking out who's still there and who's already left.

I'd rather see more of the shirtless shots of him

It was very soapy (in this day and age) that they had that intense conversation in a hallway at the courthouse. Clearly, they didn't want to build a new set just for that scene. Don't you just love how after ALL these years, with them all even going to the same church, that suddenly Benny's father wants to be a part of his life?

In regards to opening tag lines, didn't someone here once mention that Carole from NYC was hoping they'd use her alternate line, "I'm a writer. I leave the drama on the page" or something close to that. Don't know if she made a fuss of it, just that she had preferred that one instead.

At least their friendship wasn't destroyed over a comment in a cookbook saying you're as Italian as The Olive Garden. The producers really should've come up with something better to show the beginning to Caroline & Teresa's rift.

I'm on the side of those who think they should just let sleeping dogs lie. It'd be like if they brought Danielle back to Jersey and they rehashed what is and what isn't true about "the book" that was written about her. It seems ridiculous to badger Gretchen about something from years ago that she's already denied over and over. And Tupperware Face Vicki has NO room to talk, which is the point Gretchen makes that I understand. Tamra? Meh, she just wants gloating rights to get Gretchen to admit it on camera. We get it. Gretchen more than likely had an arrangement with her dying man that she can get her kitty pet by another man since he's already on the way out. Who cares? If the man and his family are cool with it and with her, who cares?

Bummer for Miami. How did OC do? I must admit I was surprisingly bored during parts of it (Lauri/Vicki, Tamra/Gretchen), but I like how Lydia attacked/defended herself against Heather. The thing is, Heather and Lydia islanded in their own argument kinda felt like "eh, who cares?" without one of the heavy hitters like Tamra, Gretchen or Vicki. Just my opinion. Yeah, Alexis can take a bow. This is her final show as a Housewife. Onto other things... nothing wrong with missing crazy Danielle, Eric! She was the crazy fun looney tunes paranoid kinda character you just have to watch. Sigh... once OC's reunion is over it's going to be slim pickin's til the next round of housewives premiere. No Miami for me, and I was disappointed to realize this past Sunday's New Jersey was only Episode 11! I'm kinda ready for this storyline arc to be over. What's for them to discuss now that the Gorga/Guidice/Wakile broods are supposedly on good terms, as are Teresa & Wacko Jacqo? Are they just going to be second-guessing each other's sincerity for the next 7 or 8 episodes?

I sure liked The City sets as their background instead of the small enclosed orange walls they use now. I watched Joy's last show. The sentiment was lacking. I think it's because it's only her and Barbara left as the originals (and Barbara is a bobble-head robot at this point). But I enjoyed seeing Meredith.

I am SO not digging NeNe's new hairstyle.

2 million viewers, whoo hoo! This has become our 1st priority of television viewing on Tuesday nights (move over, Dance Moms!) It's just so deliciously bad! I agree with frequentsoapfan, it's like Passions (actually I'll give TP credit, it's more engaging than Passions ever was) I was delightfully surprised by Gavin Houston (who was very, very forgettable as Remy on GL) during that scene with mama Veronica. The tears welling up in his eyes, the perfect soap opera tears streaming down one by one. That scene was awkward yet wonderful because I can see that kind of conversation happening in families in real life; that unspoken elephant in the room that nobody mentions but everyone knows what they're referring to. I'm surprised we didn't see a moment with Veronica where she realizes that her best friend's maid is the mother to the infamous Candace. Next episode, perhaps? P.S. I probably said this earlier, but Gavin Houston always gave me a gay vibe, whether he is or isn't in real life, his performances come off that way. Which is why it was funny how he played GL's Remy the same time that uber-effeminite Marty West was playing Shayne. But that's for a GL thread to discuss

It's funny that everyone's commented on the ending music when they do their annual freeze frame/status updates, because I thought the same thing. It's almost like a satisfying yet bittersweet moment, and they ended this season at a great place. (Kinda reminds me of Season 3 finale of NYC, knowing it was Bethenny's last, and that the whole dynamic would change next year). I think this would be a fitting way for Alexis to bow out of the series. She nearly left last year as the outcast, yet she redeemed herself and is now on decent terms with everyone (forced? Of course. But it is still a nice wrap-up to her story). I don't see a reason for her return as a full-time housewife next season. Bucky Beaver I can see returning next season. She planted the seed for starting some true animosity against Gretchen & Slade. We'll see what develops at the reunion, but I can definitely see her sticking around (I like her mom too). Gretchen, oh how I used to like her the most when I watched The OC 'wives only part-time, but now I see how ridiculous she can be. And slimy Slade brings her down. But what really disturbs me about her is THAT FACE! Good grief, how old is she? She's still in her 30's right? Why on EARTH did she mess with her face? I understand her getting work initially (didn't she trim down her chin and nose?), but her more recent work is hideous! Granted, Gretchen has a point with some of the things she says about Vicki, but she needs to give it a rest and move on. I don't think Gretchen will be going anywhere. She'll be the Teresa or Danielle of OC next season. Heather, meh... take her or leave her. Tamra always targets one lady to hate on each season, so maybe next year is Heather's turn. Tamra is one of those that I like to hate. She's pretty despicable, but I enjoy watching her cuz she stirs up trouble like no other. I'm sure I'll watch her wedding special (especially since it's just a limited series) Vicki. That dress. Just no. OMG I had to look up that reference but I had a feeling that's exactly who you were talking about! LOL Never knew that muppet's name, only her face

She makes one helluva chicken salad though, one that could feed a third world country.

This is pure train wreck TV. It's so bad, once you get a lil interested in the story, you can't stop watching. Like someone else mentioned, there's lil gems thrown in that make you laugh your ass off and makes it worth watching (Bootleg Sally's by-the-balls comment and Jeffrey smelling Wyatt's shirt).
