I would have to disagree that Teresa's life has been ruined from this show. This family wes fighting before the show yes…and maybe is does have to do a little with the show but, more so Teresa finding her new found fame then treating her family like crap…like they do not exist. Teresa was close to her brother then she came on housewives and acted like he did not matter, she treated him differently and his family.

So since Teresa knew this, should she have went up to offer congrats when she was not even speaking to the family? Teresa even stated when my brother's mad I don't approach him…so why did she the day of the christening? Because Teresa did not want the spotlight only on her brother and sil…she wanted it on her too.

With that, Teresa deserves everything that is happening to her. If Teresa never signed on to do HWs…she would STILL have to deal with foreclosure & bankruptcy. The show has nothing to do with Teresa and Joe Guidice cutting the checks and paying the bills, they must think that BILLS do not apply to them.

The Guidice's are FRAUDS!

I agree and disagree with Wa Wa Wa WHAT! I don't feel bad for Teresa because I believe she knew what she was getting into. I also do believe that the show has helped her family out financially.

However!!! I disagree with some of the other stuff about Teresa offering congrats. I don't believe it was a wise decision because it did seem some what orchestrated as did her "I just wanted to say hi" fiasco with Danielle at the end of season 2 but the difference is that these people really are her family and they invited her to the christening as she invited them to hers.

Also the conflict between them wasn't because she was ignoring them but because her brother blamed her husband for is failing relationship with their father.

Plus regardless of how you wish to interpret Teresa's actions her brother was WAYY out of line in the way he treated her and I am surprised her parents allowed him to get away with it. It was completely disrespectful.

Wa Wa Wa WHAT! says:
Wed, 25th May 20114:29 pm 

I think there may be more to the story and that's why both Teresa and Melissa are saying wait until the season plays out. Why would a father be mad at his son for working? – I believe thats what Joe J said that Joe G is putting in his ear – that just doesn't make sense to me…

I also think that Teresa's family being added to the show is a bit of karma [and maybe a bit of Andy, lol] but why such the surprise?…The Manzo's were the hwoNJ family until Dina left…

Plain and simple teresa did not want her family on the show unless she decided…when they started filming she decided to "act" like everything was okay…when clearly it was not

someone says:
Wed, 25th May 20114:40 pm 

Once again I agree with some of what your saying but I don't see why you think Teresa is trying to control things like some sort of dictator. So far in the season I don't get that impression. Though I can understand if she didn't want them on the show because as Lauren wrote in the original article it is somewhat sad and humiliating to have your family business broadcasted like this.

Wa Wa Wa WHAT! says:
Thu, 26th May 20118:10 am 

While it is sad…they choose to do this.

The Manzo's are broadcasting their family and business on national tv as well…the difference is they know how to act.

I am happy to agree to disagree, when it comes to NJ everyone has strong opinions.

Nice chatting with ya.

on all the housewives husbands have lost jobs or money(vicki, gretchen,nene,etc.); however, teresa is the only wife or girl who is sticking by her husband and treating him with love and RESPECT! that says a great deal about her character. the rest berate and or leave them. it was soooo obvious that melisa and teresa's brother are wrong. they distorted the whole christening. i thought after hearing them recount what happened, my eyes and ears han been wrong.

If you saw the highlights for the season at the end of the first episode, it appears as if they are able to work out their family differences. Looks like it will be a moving episode. Whether or not it stays that way is another story.

I am waiting for the secrets of the crimes Joe Guidice committed to come out. I wonder why Caroline doesn't have a problem with Joe forging his partners name, stealing money, lieing to the bankruptcy Court. As you can see… Well we will have to see how i all pans out.

Sabrina says:
Thu, 26th May 201111:45 am 

I don't feel sorry for any of them. Nobody put a gun to their heads to join the show – they could have said no. They knew the family dynamic before they signed on and did so anyway. They don't seem to have any trouble putting their family business out there for all to see. They are obviously in it for the notariety and the money. Andy Cohen is a businessman and is taking advantage of a good thing when he sees it. They are willing participants!

As an Italian, I find them unbelieveably embarrassing. I know of no one of Italian heritage who acts like that. They are crude, uneducated and ill-mannered. Unfortunately, people whose exposure to Italian-Americans is limited and only have shows like this one for representation, are getting a very negative view, one that shows Italians in a very, very bad light.

I think this year is just awful. Why can't BRAVO have one reality show where the people actually love one another and have fun, meaningful relationships? I am SO tired of the bickering, backbiting, yelling and being unkind I'm ready to just quit watching them all, especially NJ and O.C.! Too much!

pastababe says:
Thu, 26th May 201111:57 am

Thu, 26th May 201111:58 am 

I don't like Teresa, I think she is a stuck up bit@%, but her brother was DRUNK!! He was out of control and the way he talked to her was very disrespectful. Family or not, if he felt that strongly about her, she shouldn't have been invited to the christening. And Melissa's sister should have kept her big mouth shut too, she really made it worse.

Kim says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:01 pm 

heck thats the way all italians act as far as i am concerned i married into an italian family and most of them as well as their italian friends act like that!!!! i think it is to be expected!!! they all act like they are in the mob!!! and the ridiculous way they speak! ughhhh

I am with you. I wonder the same thing. Caroline and family all goodie, goodie and ethical etc. BUT, no prob with Joe and T!!! He is a SNAKE!!! T. brother has done really well, without being a snake in the grass. T is so jealous of her sisterinlaw!!! I do not agree with these people getting DRUNK at the babies christening!!! BUT, cannot wait till the truth comes out about Joe!!!

when you are throwing punches and cursing around children and let alone a Baptism – YOU HAVE GONE TOO FAR! DSS needs to check those idiots out and send them all to parenting classes. Especially Joe, Melissa's whacked out idiot husband. What a violent freak show. Get him for elder abuse too for the way he was screaming at his father that just had double heart bypass surgeries.

Michelle says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:14 pm 

I didn't think Theresa looked jelous at all, on the contrary Melissa looked like a petty little witch who was jelous of the relationship her husband had had with his sister and wanted to keep them from being close again

I can't get over the way Teresa goes around talking about other people do not have class. Well, were is Teresa's class that beig fat mouth of her's is nothing but trash. No class on her part.

Christopher Costas says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:15 pm 

Teresa is the only one of the women in her family who speaks truth. I admire her so much. Her sister inlaw is a mean nasty spinner. Everything that comes out of her mouth is trash talk. She needs to learn some manners. Teresa was taught right by her mother. Her brothers wife must have been brought up in a barn somewhere in Jersey. And you are right Andy you have more class than to have done this to Teresa. You as a gay man should have had more class than to have done this to her without her knowing what was going to happen this season. Shame on you Andy..I always thought you were a handsome nice guy. Prove me wrong. Lose the bitch with no class and ask Teresa for forgivness. Andy you did her wrong.

watched the show once and that was enough of that crap. What a bunch of phony, made-up, dressed up hookers. How much spray tan will it take to finish these want-a-be's off for good. I don't watch the show but still have to deal with the advertisements for a puke show and a even bigger bunch of turds for cast members. come on Bravo put something with some value on so I can pay for cable and get some entertainment for my buck. I even took Bravo off my TV programming.

I agree however I think that what they are doing for the sake of ratings is terrible.
these producers are pathetic human being. and they shouldnt bring family drama and issue into the mix just for shits and giggles. these are families with childrens and human feeling. I feel really bad for teresa causing she was really trying to be nice and she was just attacked and called garbage. And her sister in law wow she is worse than Danielle. poor Teresa

Adore says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:24 pm 

ok umm do you really watch the show? nene dumped her hubby cuz he cheated.vickie hubby didnt lose job he retired and their issues have nothing to do with money. just out growing 1 another and nether feeling incomplete. gretchen isnt married…and if you saw last ep she said the money didnt matter. by the way, if she decided to, its more on taking on his ex wifes drama.As a woman who has made more money than most of the men i know, men can get resentful. Also have dealt with a man with kids. So taking on baby momma issues,child support and past family battles is hard. So sometimes one must walk away. As said above stuff is edited so you really dont know all the history if you dont follow the stories off the air.

Maureen says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:28 pm 

I couldn't agree more!!!! It is like you read my mind when you wrote this blog….this is exactly what I was saying to a friends of mine after we watched the episode. It was exciting to watch…at first….then you started to feel dirty and guilty and embarassed for them.

ndavlin says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:28 pm 

Christine, why are you on board if you dont watch the program, in fact why would you be interested enough to even read the article if you dont watch. Obviously you watch enough to know what color dresses they wear!!! So dont act so high and mighty and criticize those that do watch.

Just Go Away says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:29 pm 

These people are plainly white trash. The fact they they think they are celebrities is funny to me. They are celebrities just like the town drunk is. Teresa is a POS. I hope she gets her tubes tied and perhaps spend some money on a good psychiatrist to cure the bug that is stuck firmly in her back end. She does not have enough good sense to be embarrassed by what she has done. These people are embarrassing to anyone from NJ or that is Italian. I wish they would shut the hell up and dry up. Plain truth is these people are trash, doesn't matter what they wear, where they live, what they can afford to buy. Trash is Trash. Silk purse-sow's ear

Kristy says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:34 pm 

Ok, so I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but damn leave the Housewives alone. They wanted to be on the show, and I'm pretty sure they knew what they were getting into from just watching other seasons. It's their life and they can do as they please with it. And it is no ones business on how they pay for their bills. If they do illegal things or work their ass off at a normal job, who cares. You're not paying them. If people think they just got on the show to make money then stop being so mean to them and don't even watch the show to begin with. No one besides the actual Housewives and their husbands know the real truth about what is going on in their lives.

Michelle says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:35 pm 

As a non-Italian Texas girl, I am embarassed for you! This show has gone so commercial. I used to enjoy watching. Not any longer. On the last "Watch What Happens: Live", every callers question was answered with–" you should watch the show because later in the season that question will be answered" or " we dont want to give anything away that is coming up".
It is now a toss up between Jersey Shore and this one as to who will win the award for Worst Portrayal of Italian Heritage

ENOUGH ANDY says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:35 pm 

I feel bad for Theresa ~Her Brother and Sister in law were jealous that Theresa was on the show and didn't include them.
Melissa is a TROUBLE maker as well as the cousin Kathy, the only reason she pulled Theresa in a room at the fashion show episode was to get her camera time.

I do not ENJOY watching Theresa get bullied, what is Andy hoping for here?

That Theresa takes her life? Would that be the ratings boost he is hoping for?

Theresa has finance problems that everyone knows about and her husband is having his own personal problems not even associated with finances, then she has her Family calling her Garbage on TV.
ENOUGH ANDY!

Am I the only one that thinks the whole thing is staged? As for the big fight at the Christening, did anyone else notice the party seemed a lot less emptier? Did they wait till everybody left to have the staged fight?

What about the money they get paid to do the show? I heard it was as much as $10,000 per week.

RH Fan says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:40 pm 

I beg to differ with your comment. Last I checked the definition of a housewife was a women who's main job is to take care of her family and home. That's exactly what these women do, just because they are wealthy doesn't mean that they are not REAL or they are made up (as if someone created there being just for the sole purpose of being on tv). I'm not a big fan of all cast members of RHONJ but everyone has the option to not watch the show. If I felt so strong about a show I wouldn't waste my time watching let alone commenting on the show. Find something that will put a smile on your face if this show isn't it!

Mrs Hart says:

For me the New York housewives are the most disturbing. I literally get a headache watching all the backstabbing and constant sniping and rudeness.
New Jersey is entertaining, in that car accident cant look away kind of entertainment. Exactly how much must you need the money in order to put your family out there in this way?
Go OC at least your enteratining!

Katherine says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:46 pm 

The only person who should be slapped is Andy Cohen. He caved to the pressure from the Gorgas to join the cast. This ape family – orangutan Melissa and her gorilla sisters and chimpanzee husband – need to be thrown back into the cesspool of their despicable lives.

Never, ever, should trash like this be allowed on television. All the other "nothing like reality" shows that are pre-scripted and prompted for supposed drama, are laughable. But to hear a brother call his sister "garbage" in front of her children is absolutely repulsive. Who will ever forget "Yar my FATHA! Yar my FATHA!" screamed at an elderly man with a heart condition? End this gutter drama now! Pull it!

Nancy says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:46 pm 

While I agree that family business should be kept private, I have a hard time feeling sorry for Teresa. She makes it obvious that she feels she is entitled to a huge house, ridiculously expensive clothing for her and her children, and continually displays her lack of education. I recall last season when her daughter made a very anti-semitic remark. This is something that is taught. Frankly, I would have preferred her being removed from the show instead of Danielle (for whom I have no love either).

RH Fan says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:49 pm 

I bet Caroline does have a problem with it, but seeing how its not really any of her business why comment and cause more drama. If this was in Caroline family it would have never gotten this out of control. Mama just isn't having it! I don't personally know what crimes Joe has committed but lets remember he is human and makes mistakes like all of us. As a gay man I'm not the biggest fan of Joe G. but it says alot about a person who is looking for what could be considered a low point in his life to be aired on tv for all to see. If that truely makes you feel good to know someone is having a hard time (regardless if they caused it personally) you might want to examine your life.

Laura says:
Thu, 26th May 201112:50 pm 

I too will NOT watch this show. Andy Cohen can sit and make fun of all the housewives and their family problems, BUT I will not be a part of it. This last episode of New Jersey was the last straw. We can sit here and type all we want about how entertaining these God awful people are but when it's at the expense of families hitting eachother and children being a part of this chaotic fiasco, I rather not watch. I have lost total respect for Bravo and Andy Cohen. These women will one day realize that all the money in the world offered to them is venomous and should not be worshipped for the mere lack-luster it appears to be.

You flaunted your wealth with your house being built and furnishings, now her and her husband have got the nerve to file for bankruptcy! I hope they take everything, including the clothes off their backs! See what's it's really like to be one of the "little" people. All of them are an embarrasment to the "Italian" heritage and NJ women.

Thu, 26th May 201112:58 pm 

Wow! I guess we are all worked up about this and that means the show is working…getting under our skin and making us respond…I personally think it is sad to see a family fight on national television real or set up…this felt real and very, very UGLY.

I was concerned for the father, torn between his children's adolescent dreams of being the favorite. The son screaming "I am your son ME, ME, ME…" as the father is gasping for air. This may in fact be T.V. drama, but I think it's a brilliant demonstration at just how selfish and narcistic INDIVIDUALS can be. (I won't do the show justice by saying this is a common scenario…)

If this is truely a real situation, my heart goes out to them. I feel for Teresa. It's not easy to deal with pride and money issues; I feel for her brother whose machismo may be getting the best of him; I feel for his wife who finds herself on the floor cleaning after her messy son and Teresa's brother says something like, "Come (insert child's name), this work is for the women…" the boy looks at his mother then his father, smiles gets up and leaves her without the dignity of a hired hand – yay! another a**h**** is born; I feel for the cousin who must feel trapped in a cyclone; and of course the parents who are gettin older and fighting their own health battles…now we have to deal with this on national television? – Disgraceful!

….but most of all I think I feel for the other cast members. How do you seem interesting when tables are being turned, siblings are throwing punches, and father's are monitoring their breathing? Doesn't matter how pretty you are, how good you are, what you've done lately when you're up against familial ignorance!

In the end, I think Housewives may have done me a huge favor. If there is one thing I have control over it is where I spend my time. I choose to spend it manifesting positive energy. This show is so dark…so ugly. If I were New Jersey, I would be upset to be represented this way. It may be time to get a new hobby as I can't see myself perpetuating the troubles of this family by giving them ratings. I'm going to have to sit this one out.

It is very sad that they have made these shows into a three ring circus. Originally I thought these shows were intened to be about the average woman and what she goes through in her life, with real problems and real issues. Wow I never relized how cold and hypacritical people can be. That is not entertainment, it is a very disfunctional bunch of women taking jabs at each-other and bringing all the dirty laundry to to light on national television. These people have no shame. One person in particular is very hypacritacal: Alexis, she claims to be a christian but yet drinks, and designs clothes that a very revealing…and oh yes when Vicki was in the hospital she was more concerned about her own selfish needs instead about the well being of a supposad friend…..talks about others and is very plastic and supperficial.

I thought i might be the only one who also thought that these shows are getting way out of control. I had stopped watching most of the RHW series because it was bringing nothing to my life and the fact of the matter was what the shows started out to be they no longer were. I wanted to see pretty landscapes, fancy things, and how women either create their own success stories or how they try to become one being a "trophy" wife. Clearly, the shows and Andy Cohen picked up really quick that there wasn't long term profit in that so he had to spice it up. I recently wrote a blog about Mob Wives on VHI another sad display of women acting STUPID.

Cindy says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:15 pm 

I agree with everrything you said. They are real people even if situations are set up and so on. I was appalled at how cruel, mean, rude, etc. Teresa's sister in law is. It seems like the only reason she is on the show is to put down Teresa and Joe. I think she is possibly jealous of the relationship Teresa and her brother had so she caused trouble by putting things in her husbands head to split him apart from his family. I was just sitting with my jaw hanging opened as I watched the first show. I could'nt believe how bad she behaved. So sad for the family. So much jealousy. I hope they see the negative in themselves and work on changing their negative ways.

Dot says:

Jill says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:16 pm 

I do feel bad for Teresa Guidice. It's one thing to have drama with women whom she has ties with through the show, but to have your personal family drama displayed for all to see is wrong. And the fact that her family members are going along with it just to make themselves popular– it's just sick! No, I'm not saying Teresa is completely innocent here, with or without a contract, she had the choice to walk away the minute she found out who the cast included, but to be blindsided like that?! Shame on you Bravo… shame on you!

Michelle Davidson says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:19 pm 

It's a sad comment for NJ if everyone believes what they see on this show. First, not everyone in New Jersey is Italian. We are a major melting pot rich with heritage of all types. Second, most of us are hard working, kind, loving and intelligent individuals who do not subscribe to the way of living portrayed on the show. Wouldn't it be more interesting to show us for who we really are?

Team Teresa says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:20 pm 

I agree with you, shame on Bravo and Andy…. I have been in shock at how Bravo has paid Teresa back for helping put this show on map. If they don't make it up to her and remove the knife from Teresa's back, myself and group of 15 friends that get together to watch the show will take up a hobby rather than waste our time on this network anymore!!! I also have skipped Andy's show because of what they have done to Teresa and her children… Let's all keep in mind her small children have these people in there little lives, homes and now to be tricked by Bravo is just sick…. Bravo sucks! Remove the knife Bravo!!!!!______I cannot stand Teresa's sister-in-law or her ugly cousin… This is Teresa's show girls, get out, nobody wants to waste our time watching you!

Frauds about what? Many people have had financial issues the last 4 years. Even if he is exposed someday for illegal business practices, you can't blame her for trying to keep her family together. They made mistakes, but hating them in every area sounds very vindictive. Most families have problems from time to time. (Especially in larger families.) They were getting ready to leave the party, so most people say something to the host when they are getting ready go. That didn't seem too unusual. Pounding the table & excusing that behavior by saying, "Well he explodes sometimes & everyone knows that" seems like Brother Joe needs anger management classes. Hopefully they can work things out.

Tiffany says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:23 pm 

REALLY??? You are acting like these people are being held by gunpoint to be on this show. Obviously, they don't care about airing their dirty laundry in the hopes of being famous and making money. If i had serious family issues and didn't want it to be on TV, THEN I WOULDN'T BE ON TV. They are happy to be making the money off of it and more importantly for these women, the attention! I think it's ridiculous to say that BRAVO went to far on this one. Everyone has a choice. And they CHOOSE to put themselves in this situation. If they really wanted to make their family drama go away, they'd fix it behind closed doors like the rest of the world. It'd ridiculous to even say that. These women want the attention!!

Dotty says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:23 pm 

i agree I think he needs to throw the two new ones off the show are at least talk with them and calm things down. Teresa is one of the reasons I watch this show, I know she's hot tempered, but keep family out of it especially that Kathy women. and while I'm at it, that blond older, I just went blank on her name, but she is nothing but a trouble maker, she goes from one person to another stirring up trouble. someone nee3ds to start in on her oh I know now its that Kim that does not own the dress shop! I can't stand someone who is always stirrring up trouble. let the show be like it was without one of them and thats the one who always had to have a getto bodyguard she is so stupid her and that kim women, if they were out of the picture and Andy quit trying to tear families up by putting ones on there that are already having problems, especially that Kathy women she's just like Kim a troublemaker the show would be ok again and I'd love to watch it. as for now I'll skim over it til I see that Teresa is ok and then I'll start back to watch it if not I'll go to something else, I am tired of this junk!

PS.. if you don't like the drama, then don't watch it. It's pretty simple. If the show disgusts you, then don't tune in. That's another great thing about choices, you can choose what you tune into and what you don't.

Lauren says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:24 pm 

All I have to say is the fight in the first episode was fully started by Teresa's brother Joe. She went over to say congratulations and Joe called her trash! And then he had a hissy fit which started the fight! Yet everyone blamed Teresa for it? Come on!

I totally agree and it is very sad that we as a society are so sick that we watch and give the ratings to this show…..Its sad that Teresa has been put in this situation and I think Melissa, Joe (Melissas' husband) and Kathy should have stepped back. The one that are jealous and competitve seem to be Melissa and Joe. I find it sad that they think its funny that Teresa and her husband are going thru bad financial times. Melissa and Joe should watch out because when your up you only have one place to go and that is down. Good luck Teresa with your family and your parents.

You want to see really bad reality TV, watch Mob Wives.(on a different network) These women think because they have family in the mob we should respect them and their filthy mouths and entitlement issues. They have really hit rock bottom with this show.

These aren't " real housewives." A real housewife works outside the home ( if applicable ) cooks, cleans, does laundry, takes care of the kids ( if any ), runs errands and takes care of the familys' needs, including the husbands'. Real housewives keep it real! These women are as fake as their bodies amd their lives. Sad.

Susie says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:34 pm 

YEs they are all spoiled brats, all with financial difficulties, hard to deal with children etc etc. which sounds like most of us in the USA right?
I always watch the shows but this last NJersey one, WOW, even though I had seen previews, it was horrible to watch any family go through that. I did not expect it to be that heart wrenching and continue to be on the following week with everyone trying to put some reasoning behind it all.
Teresa is definately NOT to blame at this point, but who knows when it all started way back when who was? Right? Teresa was trying to be very nice and not in the way she did to Danielle last years run, but sincerely I felt. I just about fell over my chair when her brother called her garbage, and started slamming his fists on the table and I feared he was going to hit HER.
He is definately a hot head and his wife is definately a HUGE TROUBLE maker and he needs to see that FAST!! That is all she does is talk about his money, her stuff, and spreads chit about Teresa and lies, and so does her "sister" I think it is. The fugly one?

Everything those two have said since the new season is lies and has done nuthing but cause more problems and baby Joe(Teresa's brother) needs to see those clips of his wife and her sister.

The worst part, horrible, is for the grandma and grandpa to see this happen. I felt horrible for grandpa(heart surgeries) and Teresa was the only one showing concern for him, while her brother yelled and screamed at him for loving her husband Joe better then HIM. Well dang no wonder, Joe, Teresa's husband treats him with respect and does not yell at him or talk drama with him.

Housewives ???? I think Alexis is the only married housewife on the show now…Vicky is getting a divorce…I used to like to watch these shows …I just don't know anymore !!!

Ivette says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:42 pm 

I think Teresa is being made out to be a liar, and alot of what Danielle has said about her is true and I think her sister in law is starting to bring it out of her…I don't know but Teresa is in for a ride of her life to bad the kids are there to witness it all.

I don't get all this shame on Andy Cohen stuff. No one is forcing any of you to watch these shows, so change your channel, turn off your TV, read a book…I love that all of you hypocrites are disavowing this show while talking about it in depth. So funny. Andy Cohen is a smart businessman…when these shows don't get an audience, they'll be gone. In the meantime, there are plenty of people watching, because the American public just eats up this stuff. Jerry Springer is still on after all these years..need I say more? So shut up, already…watch or don't watch, but it is your choice. Sheesh.

The entire genre is beyond pathetic. These shows make women look stupid, shallow, petty, and disposable. I have not yet figured out which is the sadder reflection on humanity, that these show exist, or that people watch them.

Beverly says:
Thu, 26th May 20111:57 pm 

I totally agree, I will not be watching it anymore at all. I have my own family issues, all this does is make me sad. That was so wrong what they did to Teresa.
Just to mention NY houswives with Sonya showing her private parts twice is just disgusting. She should be asked to leave along the associate that decided to air that. Sonya grubs off everyone, she is just disgusting to watch. Bye Bye Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You don't really believe jersey HW didn't know about the new girls. PLEASE. This is a con. Danielle was set up like a bowling pin. Was she nut's? Yea, but the rest are fake, embarrassing, wannabes. They work the system. I grew up in Jersey. Father was high level executive of international corporation. Had friends with parents who earned pro sports teams, advisors to presidents, owners of pharmaceutical companies. All of us did household chores even with housekeepers employed. When I was roughly 8y I decided our maid was my servant. Dad caught me. Guess who took over her jobs for a week. These housewives and their families are an embarrassing set of bullies and thugs.

Vicky says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:02 pm 

I say to Teresa, "Keep your head high and never stop doing what you are doing to keep your family first. I believe you are a great mother, wife, daughter, and sister. What does not kill you makes you stronger." To Caroline, " I admire your sense of FAMILY, and the strong woman that you are." To Jacquelin, " Sometimes we have to remember that what we did when we were at our daughters age does not mean that they can do the same without a little help. Of course we want them to do it alone but parents should be there to help when there children needs help. They just might surprise us with that boost that we give them."

Come on people. You know why you watch these shows. If everybody was all lovey dovey, there would be no show. Caroline likes to have no conflict or drama and that's boring. She will probably phase herself out. Seeing her get misty eyed everytime she mentions her grown sons does not make for good television. It seems that the RHNJ is going to be become The Teresa Show. She's the loose cannon. Now with her brother and her in-laws, we can probably expect more than table flipping from them. They're all pig-headed and irrational. Money can't buy you class.

I hate to say it but I do not enjoy them much either these past couple years. I think BRAVO should have a reality show called The Manzo"s, They are a very REAL, FUNNY, and Close Family. That would be worth watching. Albie and especially Chris amke me laugh so hard.

GregR says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:15 pm 

Yeah, remember when Bravo was a channel that had classy programming? Hence the name "Bravo". The same thing happened at A&E, Arts & Entertainment. AMC, American Movie Classics, MTV, Music Television. I'm sure there are others. They had to change their format in order to get an audience. Did anybody tune in to see operas or the ballet, or whatever it was that was shown on Bravo?

Mary says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:15 pm 

Start watching "A Baby Story" on TLC if you want reality TV that isn't trashy. But I think most of the people posting here love it the trashy b.s., and then getting up on the moral high horse, dogging Andy Cohen, but tuning in EVERY week so the fingers can point and the judgment can begin…it's so fake it's pathetic.

Rosi says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:16 pm 

Andy Cohen must be boycotted, he'll do anything for his pocketbook, he's a slumhoe TV producing bastardo. Teresa, I do not feel sorry for, she is living her own KARMA, I always said the biatch didn't know the value of a dollar and spent what she never had, what her monger hubby never produced financially. She married a lazy bastardo, both of them lived lies. And what she did to Danielle, like or hate her, was not human behavior! So now she's getting pay back, and rightly so. The next one to get KARMA is the gangsta red headed Jersey moll, a misfit for a human being, a gangsta moll, head of the family, wanna be, and those ugly sons of hers, OMG!!
yes Jersey housewives has gone way, way to far, as has ANDY COHEN, fire all of them, also NeNe from Atlanta, she's turned into a drunk, big mouthed, nothing to say skank…Andy Cohen has NO class, if it were not for HOES he wouldn't have a cast!!

Julie Philips says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:19 pm 

Teresa's brother was drunk. At his son's christening, this low-life gets disgusting drunk. He called his sister garbage. He should of had his clock rung right then. He didn't care children would hear this. He didn't even consider his actions could have caused serious repercussions on his father's health. He went over and yelled at him. Horrible. Whah-Boo-Hoo-Poor Me, my father doesn't love me the best. My sister ignores me. Joe G. owes me money, he's a pig. Then Melissa, makes excuses for her wonderful husband. He is not the victim in this situation. He's a low-life, self pitying, little man, who got drunk and showed his true character.

Just because they have money problems doesn't make them frauds!

what does make them frauds: living in a mansion that you have not paid [or intention to] one mortgage payment on or property taxes, owning properties that you collect rent from and do not make the mortgage payment on…or the property taxes, using someone elses ID to obtain a drivers license, forging ANY signatures, including wife & business partner. > I'll just stop there…that is all fradulent acts…anf that's why they will be on trial.

Cathy says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:34 pm

Lil says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:42 pm 

Oh, give me an effing break Lauren (and Maureen). These are grown men and women who are responsible for their own behaviour, regardless of any "set-up". If they had the slightest bit of class, they would walk away from these volatile situations and be the "better person", if there is such a thing with this group. They are nothing but a buch of classless, attention starved pigs who keep procreating, bringing more pigs into the world, and thrive on the drama and fights. I hope they kill each other. It could only make the world a better place to be rid of this trash. Find my comment classless? I never pretended to have any!

NOOOOOOO says:
Thu, 26th May 20112:49 pm 

you're obviously not alone in this.
I think Bravo went to far. However, I read way before this seasons' NJ houseiwives came back, that Teresa Guidice was threatening to leave the show if her sister in law, Melissa Gorga, was on. I wish I could find that link to post here.

So from what I read, Teresa knew that was what they were thinking, (bringing her sis in law) on the show, and apparently Teresa decided to stay, probably because they really do (apparently) need the money.

In any case, I find it hard to watch .. the first episode really was upsetting, the fighting, hitting, at a child's christening. I did not watch the second episode. It's become too sad, too negative, too painful to watch.

I agree with the other posters who've said, we need to see some love, some happiness, yeah, maybe a little drama but not HATE and that is what I'm seeing with NJ . It isn't fun to watch anymore, and I won't watch NJ anymore. One episode this season was all I could take.

Jgo says:
Thu, 26th May 20113:00 pm 

I was totally horrifed after watching the first show of the new season of the New Jersey housewives. Tre, I felt so sorry for you. Millions of women came to love you last season. This season with your sister-inlaw stirring the pot of hatered makes my stomach turn. They need to boot Melisa off the show along with your brother and you all need to sit down as a family and repair the damage.

montana says:
Thu, 26th May 20113:07 pm 

Oh Please… This is ALL about people wanting their 15 minutes of Fame and Teresa sure as Hell didn't mind bragging about all she had and wouldn't have ( a home owned previously by someone else was skeevy , remember?) dropping thousands on her brats etc . The Guidices are getting their just deserves right about now. I am team Gorga all the way

montana says:

Although the network execs know how to bolster ratings with cat-fighting, these cats should have enough of their own good sense to behave themselves because their dirty laundry is being aired all over the world. Most people in this world still won't sell their souls to the devil, or to the networks for a check and expose their families to all of this mess. Kate Gosselin might have still been married to the father of her children, had she and her husband not gotten caught up in the mullah and celebritism. Kate is still in front of the cameras every chance she gets and so are the most (not all) of the Bravo Housewives. I know this world is used to the blame game. But ultimately, these people are supposed to be sane and the network goes after the lame ducks who are willing to bare all-including their petty self-aggrandizing disputes. A handful of the Housewives have refused to allow their decorum to be challenged to fit a script.

What scares me are the ugly pulled back faces that look cartoonish~freakoid like. They have all had plastic surgery up the ying-yang making their faces so tight you can bounce hard boiled eggs off of them. My guess is that all the money that they earn doing the show goes towards p.surgery. Lynn and Jacqueline freak me out as does the worse of all of them, Peggy from O.C. (she looks hideous). Someone help these ladies; they will end up like Jenny Lee.

I am also tired of watching these families go at each other like animals…most people don't act this way unless they have a mental problem. Why in the world would you put your family and self out there for the whole country to see and know your financial and personal problems? Don't you know and realize that your children will one day see this and wonder what in the world you were thinking? Come on ladies….grow up and act your age. This is not just referring to the NJ girls either. The NY women are just as bad with all the drama. What a joke Kelly is. I find it hard to believe that she has lived this long and she is so delusional about this world. She definitely lives on another plane than the rest of us.

I grew up in Bergen county and seriously I don't understand why "Jersey" is always getting bashed. We have the best beaches around! <Personally I think better the Cali beaches. Now I didn't say the water was better but the beaches are good.

With the airing of this show and "Jersey Shore..if people did have any respect for NJ these shows bring down any class Jersey had. I don't feel sorry for any of them. No one is forcing them to be on the show. And Teresa..give me a break the woman acts like white trash half the time. What is she still in hs..grow up!

And Lauren, seriously..your a writer? What good writer says BS or effin.. hello if your going to a journalist, you really should act like one.

My Heart ached as i watch Theresa being called garbage by her own brother as her daughter gia was pulling her away. If you remember he said earlier in that episode that he would never hurt Theresa's children……..Calling someones mother garbage while they are standing right there is pretty hurtful. And if you ask me that would make him the garbage. Let see if Melissa would stand by her husband through all Theresa has gone through. DOUBT IT!

Hal says:

Caroline had no problem trotting out former NYC Police Commisioner and now convicted criminal Bernie Kerik as her family best friend who brought over those German Sheps to her on the show. He tooks bribes from organized crime families and gave them all the correctional department buidling contracts and also got his condo remodeled by organized crime for free.

Thu, 26th May 20114:02 pm 

I have to admit that the blow up at the Christening really upset me. At such a sacred moment the Andy Cohen, this should have happened or been seen by the public. I only watch Housewives of Beverly Hills, New Jersey, OC and New York. I tweet some of the wives on twitter and they can be sweet. But I have to say I'm so disappointed in the editing they do to make more drama. We just saw it on New Jersey. It's been there on New York but I think one great thing that came out of NY was Bethenny Frankel. This was her stepping stone to be a entrepreneur for her Skinnygirl products. While on the show, I felt she was the most real and down to earth. I can't even watch NY now. All the backstabbing, "I'm better than you" crap, a so-called Countess who doesn't even follow her own rules in her book of etiquette. And if you google some of the men on these programs, they are dead beat dads, don't really have the money that they seem to throw around, like Micah on OC. Google him. Google Slade Smiley, oy. I'm truly disappointed in Andy Cohen since he became the Executive Producer. Ratings, Ratings, Ratings.

Hal says:
Thu, 26th May 20114:08 pm 

Teresa is nothing more than a foul mouth pig. She goes ape-s-h-i-t on people. She stalked and harrassed Danielle at the last fashion show to the point that when Danille who didn't want to speak to her in the first place, when she starting to leave after Teresa accosted her, Teresa ran after Danielle all the way to stand in front of the car that Danielle was seated in. Where Jaceqlines daughters was arrested which is Teresa fault because she did start that fight for no good reason, too. And Teresa to behave like a loud pig mouth at the show reunion while trying to assault Danielle who again walked away where Teresa shoved and pushed Andy Cohen down like the New Jersey Gorilla that she is.

I totally agree Lauren. When I saw the first episode and the fighting going on with the father there and his bad heart it crossed the line for me. I hope they all have enough sense to listen to Caroline. I think back to the original episodes of the OC and I was hooked without all the Mean Drama.

Marisa says:
Thu, 26th May 20114:21 pm 

It's unfortunate but then why are we still watching the show?? I don't blame BRAVO at all. Money is what's driving all these women to cause more drama. You feel sorry for Theresa?!!! You gotta be kidding me. She's a passive aggressive woman that needs to be put in her place. Trashy and classless bunch of women and I laugh every time I see the show. I don't feel sorry for any of them.

jane says:
Thu, 26th May 20114:25 pm 

i don't agree with this write up at all. i laughed so hard when i saw this episode. look you get what you having coming to you when you put yourself out there. like with everything else that is out there, if you don't like it change the channel. if the consumer doesn't watch it then it will go off the air but the bottom line is you will watch because it either makes you a) feel better about yourself or b) makes you feel less alone because you can relate.

I am so tired of all the housewives. You know it is all scripted, edited and total white trash drama. What ignorant, attention grabbing, self-centered women..can not stand to watch anymore or even see them when they come on other shows. Who cares what they think but I will no longer tolerate their bad manners and behavior.

Yes they are all so trashy, wanna be classy what a Joke!!! Theresa looks and acts like a demon. If I ever found any of these so called females anywhere i would let them know that they are so low. The New Jersey wives are the worse of all the wives and Ugly too, caroline looks like a man in drag, actually man in drag look better than she does.

I stopped watching the RH franchise a while ago, mainly because a while back as I was sitting with my grandad in his hospital room I realized just how much negativity these shows perpetuate. I'm not criticizing anyone else who watches them: if seeing people tear each other apart is what you consider entertainment then good for you. Personally, after you've experienced real tragedy or heartache in your own life, why would you ever think it's alright to rejoice or celebrate anyone else's pain or discomfort? I would love to see the day come when people could honestly step away from shows like these and instead watch something that you can learn from — that'll enrich your lives and those of your families. The more negative and inappropiate behavior we allow in our homes whether thru TV or other media platforms, the more we confuse children/adolescents into thinking that those negative dynamics are acceptable ways to react to life's events or problems.

Andy Cohen is an Executive at Bravo and that's what you call entertaining when he constantly shows that stupid alexis couture woman on that tape, I mean it's getting disgusting even on WWHL.. why can't they do a talk show and forget about those stupid games, drinking etc etc i can see Teresa how uncomfortable she was in that chair and the other one Jaqueline uggghh makes me crazy when last season she was always interrupting when someone was talking and she did the same thing on WWHL.. ugghh.. lol RHONJ is not entertaining anymore it's pathetic..

I'm ok with the fact that they are adults being paid a salary to be on this show. They are not victims, however the kids may be victims, but they are not. If they choose not to air their dirty laundry in public, they would tell Bravo to go to hell, but that is not the case. The more drama they create and share and show to the public, the longer their show will be on the air and the higher ratings they will receive. For example, Dina did not care to show anymore of her business, so she made a decision to leave. It's as simple as that. If they can extend the drama and ratings they will eventually be able to ask Bravo for more money, which is what Teresa tried to do in order to compete with Jersey Shore salary. I agree that it was sad to watch, but on the other hand, they are adults and fully aware of their family history and issues. A lot of family's fight like that in public, and if they choose to be on TV doing it, who can fault them for that

I agree with you Julie, Theresa's brother was way too drunk for public and made an ass of himself and was totally rude. All he had to say was thank you, and let it go. To berate her for nothing was uncalled for. And that twit of a wife of his, to think her husbands actions were fine, needs to grow up. The sister in law who jumped in with the snarky remark was out of order too. Nobody gets between a brother and sister except the parents, or in this case Joe G had every right to approach his brother in law regarding his actions toward Theresa. Joe didn't look like he was trying to jump in a punch him he look as tho' he was approaching him, it was little spoiled selfish brother who jumped up after beating the table and looked like he was going after somebody. That poor father. Kathy was out of line to approach Theresa at the fashion show, Kim G is an attention whore and after only seeing 2 shows, I am ready to erase my dvr from recording any more shows. Bravo, you went too far this time by inviting in trouble makers. Wasn't the Danielle crap enough!!! So glad when she was gone. Caroline Manzo, the one with the most sense.

As a society we are already pretty much corrupt. WE stand by as they use sex to sell candy, tampons, food and everything else. We still keep our TV’s and watch these networks. Most of the programs show sex and we still watch these shows and sitcoms. None of us have taken a stand, and tossed out our TV’s and boycott the networks. They talk about sex in kid’s cartoons and other kid’s shows, but yet we still allow this to occur. So why draw the line now? We as a society have accepted things like this for so long, that there are no longer any limits. Everything is blurry now. The moral high ground is gone, we are a den of dogs and therefore the networks and shows treat us like this.

The past Presidents don't care because they were busy doing crack and drinking and driving, most politicians don't care, the affairs and shows made about them, kids being born to other women that are not their wives, prostitution glorified, and drugs and alcohol paraded around like it’s an okay thing to do. The bachelor show glorifies making out with tons of individuals. Sex during the commercials during sporting events. Everything is so corrupt. So why the fire behind a family fight on the tv? If it really bothers people, collect signatures and submit complaints to your congressman, take a stand and get rid of your TV. But we all know that's not going to happen. So perhaps u should just turn it off and don't watch it again.

Yes, these housewives can back out at any time. Therefore, they are responsible for any dirty laundry that turns up. There's not really a point in feeling sorry about it, these are women with children and husbands and jobs. They should be responsible enough to know what they're getting into.
