Dirty Jersey Housewives


Writing about my reality television passion, The Real Housewives of New York City is sadly coming to an end on Tuesday when the housewives meet for a re-cap of the season. Fortunately, it will be a two part re-cap that will continue into Thursday, because apparently there is too much drama for just one-hour.

After the first part of the re-cap a new group of housewives will be added to the BRAVO family: the ladies from New Jersey. After a one hour preview of the new season, I’m not so sure if “ladies” would be the right term to describe them.

Three of the New Jersey housewives are related through marriage, and the most outgoing of the three, Caroline, claims that “before she knows somebody, [she] does not like them. I would say she is the bitchiest, but enter stage right her younger sister Dina, a woman who says, “If you think I’m a bitch, then bring it on!”

And the mother of the year award goes to mommy of three of the cutest, yet brattiest girls this side of the turnpike, Teresa. Claiming her husband is “juicy,” Teresa takes her girls shopping at least a couple of times a week and usually buys them whatever their hearts desire. When she hesitated in the preview, her daughter, who looks to be about five years old, said she would rip her hair out.

Although they sound entertaining, I haven’t even gotten to the dirtiest Jersey-est housewife of them all: Danielle. Living in a mansion spending her days tanning by her pool and working out in her own personal gym, she looks for pity by saying that her divorce settlement has still not come in. Two words: boo hoo! One thing she doesn’t have to worry about is love though: she will soon be going on a blind date with a man twenty years younger than her whose phone sex has driven her crazy.

What great role models! I almost don’t even want to give these women the ratings, but I don’t think I will be able to resist. This should get interesting!
