I agree...I'd be curious to know how many (or if any) Victoria's "illustrious" father took? He evaded convictions so often, he was known as the "Teflon Don"...I'm sure there were many occasions that he lied to many, many people. Maybe Victoria learned the art of lying from a Master? She sure didn't learn his sense of style!!

Jac threw a lot of nasty accusations and innuendo Teresa and Joe's way during her last (?) Reunion - the same as Teresa and Joe did towards Jac. They both got down and dirty.

I guess we remember it differently, and we'll have to agree to disagree. I thought that Dina had cleared that whole thing up prior to Season Two, and she left because of the toxicity that was Danielle Staub, and the beginnings of the rift between her, Caroline and Jacqueline. Either way, she was released from her contract with no consequence.

I'll agree with you there - a lot of Rumson/Middletown money is either from "old" money, or from investment banking/large financial institution jobs, where they either are too classy to want to film, or employment contracts would not permit it (NOTE: Mr. NJ works for a financial institution, and waaay back when Celebrity Apprentice first started, there was a guy who worked for Goldman Sachs on the show. He had to quit his job before filming, because GS would not allow him to appear on the show while still being employed. Mr. NJ said that is standard procedure in the financial world). Having said that, I'm sure that there are a bunch of people from Colts Neck, Manalapan and Marlboro (land of the McMansions and Mercedes) that would be happy to display their fabulous lives.... It would be interesting to see some of Jim and Amber's neighbors in Colts Neck - especially someone who may have a grudge against Jim.

I never thought of it that way...you could be right!! :-)

Does anyone else think that Teressa was the twin that was born first? She certainly seems to be the dominate one. Nicole didn't have too much to say tonight, or she had already predetermined that Teressa was going to speak for the both of them. And, I can't help myself....I have to say that I really, really like Rino!! (except for his bird in the hand sock...) I would love to sit and have drinks with him. I may be gullible, but I believe him. I'm sure he knew VG a long time ago, but I would believe him more than I believe her. There was no hesitation, no fidgeting, no eyes wandering....he looked directly at Andy, when asked the questions about Santa. I loved his comment about that day was probably the first day in 10 years that he hadn't had a drink yet~~I bet he had several afterwards, though! ;-)

The driving distance between Colts Neck and Franklin Township/Montville is about an hour and 10 minutes, (give or take 10-15 minutes, depending on traffic on the GSP). Actually, Colts Neck is probably closer, timewise, to Brick Township (where Melissa's sisters and mother live) than to Franklin Township. If I recall correctly, the Gorga's owned a shore house in Brick, or at least, said they did. I like Dina, but you could be right about the one year contract. Maybe she negotiated it that way, kind of like, "I'll come back for a year and see how it goes". What I can't figure out is how she would think the show would be any different than when she was on previously. I don't know if that is exactly true - Dina left the Housewives mid-season, and within a year from that, her party planning show was on HGTV.

I've heard that before. I've mentioned that Theresa is probably a good employee for Bravo, because I think she is pretty literal and basic with accepting direction by the producers - they tell her what needs to be done, and she goes in and does it, without a thought to the consequences, Obviously, as we've seen over and over and over again. Half the time, I think this is what gets Theresa in trouble (not her legal trouble - trouble with the other wives). She doesn't think far enough to imagine the consequences or fallout.

I don't know - I can totally see Bravo trying to cash in on Teresa's return to civilian life, and trying to make ends meet while being a "single" Mom, raising her four beautiful daughters somewhere. I can see her renting a townhouse somewhere with her Bravo salary.

If that is the case, I could wind up with new neighbors, because I can totally see Joe and Melissa moving to follow the show, wherever it goes!! ;-)

This could also be a way for production to do what a lot of viewers have been asking for - a complete overhaul of the cast. I'm from the area where the twins and Amber live - believe me, there are probably a lot of women from this area who would love to be on this show. Actually, though, I would like to see the twins return. I think they could provide some interesting storylines. In a way, I feel bad for them (and, in a small way, Amber), because they are new castmates, and there was probably a lot of footage filmed with them that got left on the editing room floor because of the Guidice trials and tribulations. It would have been nice to see a little more focus on the new women.

I was wondering the same thing...I was waiting to see what the reaction to that would be!! I wonder if it was edited out because everyone was so appalled by Jim's comment. He seemed to be going after Dina in a really hard way throughout the reunion - he was being a catty bitch (no other way to describe it) to her.

Okay - I'll admit that I only watched this show last season sporadically, as I really could not stand it and I think that will be the same for this season, but I have a question for those of you who watch regularly. Is that guy James (the deejay/busboy) really dating Kristen? I got a very gay vibe from him. And, so, Lisa fired him from SUR - will that be so that he can beg for a job at PUMP a few episodes from now? I think the reason I can't handle this show is the way all the girls have that same tone to their voices and their inflections make me cringe - especially Schaena....talk about nails on a chalkboard!!! I feel sorry for her husband to be!

I have it on in the background....LOVING IT!!! "If you can't be my friend, then don't be my enemy!!!" LOL

I thought the same thing....a little rough around the edges!! It seems that Apollo's mother had some addiction problems in the past? Is this the first we are hearing about this? I don't ever recall hearing much, if anything, about Apollo's family, except that his Mom was white and she served him canned meat.

I bet he is feeling sad - I cannot imagine what the wrath of Ms. Nene must have been, after the fact!! I would hate to be on the receiving end of her anger!!

You know, I was thinking, if getting knocked down on the floor of a tacky stage while wearing a pretty gown and originally making a total ridiculous ass of myself could get me a three month trip around the world, I think I would be able to handle it!! :-) I get the feeling that maybe Kenya was just holed up somewhere (probably Atlanta), working on photoshopping herself into tourist-y looking backdrops.....

Are you talking height, stature, talent or self-impression?? :-)

As much as I usually like Kandi, I sometimes think she equates money and gifts with showing love. She also alluded to this during last season's reunion, when saying that she doesn't mind giving Mama Joyce money, because of everything Mama Joyce did for her. In a sense, she is trying to show her love by giving those she loves gifts and money. I don't think she does these things in place of showing love, that is just her way of expressing her love for someone.

Why does Nene's face look so dirty on WWHL?? It's like the makeup artists ran out of foundation halfway down her cheeks!!! Other than that, I think she does look nice.

Bobby mentioned in one his talking heads that he decided to join the Colts Neck volunteer firefighting company after Superstorm Sandy, which occurred in October, 2012. After training, etc., it was probably sometime in 2013 when he graduated training and was inducted into the volunteer program. I think it's great that he decided to get involved. Colts Neck, like many towns in New Jersey, only has a volunteer fire company. And, I think most people in New Jersey would have recognized the name Bob Ciasulli, and put two and two together. They are a very prominent car dealership company here. I also believe him when he said that he ran into Jac and Melissa at a restaurant where he was having a birthday dinner for his Dad. It's very possible and plausible that they could have been at the same restaurant at the same time. Besides, Jacqueline, or "Jackie", as Jim Marchese called her (which I have NEVER heard anyone use that nickname for her), doesn't have a book, so there would have been no book signing. Did Bobby intentionally show up at a Teresa book-signing? Probably....but the rest of it, I'm kind of believing. And, again, as so many others have mentioned - it is so laughable that Jim would call Bobby a "famewhore", when Jim lives on Twitter to respond to every Google Alert his phone pings at him....another symptom of Jim's "pot meet kettle-itis", if you ask me.

Vrocotamy - great, concise information - thanks!! I love your theory, and I don't know if this is possible, but in the future, Jim may spin this to say that he was some type of " government mole", working undercover as a professional whistle-blower, sent in to the pharma company and setting up various low-end questionable mortgage companies to uncover wrong-doing....

I think that they know exactly why he didn't take the bar right out of law school and are holding onto to that little tidbit for a better time (maybe next season???).

That is a good point - he could be New Jersey's version of Lisa Vanderpump's husband, Ken's friend (Martin - ? - the one they tried to set up with Kim Richards), or the other guy with all the money and HUGE house that is on RHBH at least two or three times a season (Yolanda's ex-husband....)

Super super super YAY!!! for you, and your continued good health!! :-) And you're right - Amber just wants to be special, but she's not....
