do we know if the "official" locked live chat will ever open or are we gonna continue to use the new one?
Based on the banner announcement that was up last week, it sounds like the individual forums will no longer be moderated. It also seems that different mods had different methods of handling live chats. I’m assuming we can now set up this forum the way we want as long as we follow the posting guidelines. Considering the live chat gets all of the action with just a few posts on the episode threads for the people who missed it, my vote is to do it the way most of the other forums I post in handles it. Just create a new episode thread each week, and we live post there, too. We don’t need a moderator to set up the weekly thread—just whomever goes to post first can start it.

I have not watched RHNJ in many years, but I’m desperate to add another show into rotation. so I gave this a shot. I vaguely recall Delores, and of course I know Teresa and Melissa. There’s someone who I thought was Jaqueline—but then realized that is not Jaqueline. I don’t know who these people are or what is happening, but I nearly died when that grandma, excuse me, Nonna, said to her granddaughter who has the most crazy-ass, Groupon, hacked nose job I’ve ever seen, “Oh, you mean nose-job Jen?” I spent that whole party scanning noses to see who else had a nose job. But the only conclusion I can draw is that Nonna is senile and didn’t realize she was insulting her own grand-daughter to her barely nosed face.

Would a god-fearing man wearing that large of a crucifix steal money?! I mean, I know they met because Fred and True were bunkies, but that’s in the past…

She’s making it clap in her mother’s bathroom during a prison video visit while the kids her mother is raising are downstairs. I can’t.
And didn’t even have the decency to close the bathroom door! Then again, this is a normal Wednesday night “down at the office” for her.

Did this man just say he’s making goat lasagne?! And a squid omelette?!? This is all happening in the prison kitchen?! This guy’s come a long way since birthday cakes out of creamer powder and sprite.

Wait. Did they just cut in a phone call with a producer in the middle of the phone call with the boyfriend? So we and production know he might be in there for 6 years, but he’s not telling the boyfriend that? This is too confusing with filming the “talking heads” and “live footage” over video chats. I need Tai with her Rolodex and charts to help us keep track of what’s happening with everyone.

Uh-oh! Rick is going to give Louie from Lakeland a run for his money for middle-aged prom king! He’s picking out a tux. Get the galaxy print one. You’ll look…out of this world!

Let me get this straight. Rob has been in prison for 18 years (according to mom but 16 years according to the girlfriend). Yet, somehow he’s running a successful business that his mother expects to be supported by? This is the surveillance guy, right? Is his business providing live security 24/7 for people? Remote daycare hollering at your kids over speakerphone? Providing remote fitness training and then making sure you stay on your diet. {static} Hey! Close that fridge! {static}

Why did Daniel fly cross-country to not spend any time with Ariana? If they’re supposedly so in love but hardly see each other in person, you’d think they’d want to spend every second together and wouldn’t be able to keep their hands off each other. This wasn’t reading as a real relationship to me. Moreover, isn’t he some type of fitness influencer? In that case, wouldn’t he want more exposure to build his following? Though, I guess the post-shower scene was enough to build his brand—no need to risk ruining it by speaking more on camera or, god forbid, spending time with his “girlfriend.” She did seem somewhat smitten with him at their dinner, but he seemed more focused on the food. When Ariana mentioned him moving to CA, he was all, oh, god no!! Not at all like contemplating next steps in their relationship. I’m just not getting the angle here. He’s not really here for Ariana or the exposure. Daniel, what’s your deal?!
ETA: I see that next week is the finale. I wonder whether the show (and maybe Ariana) pushed to put their relationship on the show, and maybe he’s just uncomfortable with being on TV, so he’s like, I’ll show up for you but give you the bare minimum for your show. Which, in that case, makes his behavior a bit more understandable.

I wasn’t prepared for Ayonna and now Joey and family trauma dumping on us. I feel for them. This is making it harder to snark on them. We come here for the laughs.

I am the only one who is rooting for Kristen and Luke. He seems to understand how to talk to her. He leaps to her defense and challenges, but there’s passion there. I don’t think it’s ego.
I love Kristen’s long-sleeved, twisted bodice cranberry red dress.
Yes, you’re the only one. 😉 IMO, this is the last thing Kristin needs is someone who’s even more of a hothead than she is. “Leaping to her defense” by causing fights with people at every damn group interaction is not a positive trait. Just because they’re similar doesn’t mean it’s a good thing. It means they both need therapy to learn how to express their emotions in a constructive manner. Don’t even get me started on how they think it’s a good idea to conceive even though each of them has no intention of ever leaving their state.

This was definitely the Chloe and Michael redemption episode for me. Chloe got a bit of a kooky edit this season with the hyperfocus on the 5 foster kiddos and 7,250 disabled animals, but this episode showed her to be an absolute gem. She and Michael still have incredible chemistry. It’s a shame that they didn’t give it a shot, but I guess animal sanctuary life isn’t for Michael and if they come out of this with a great friendship, then that’s still a win for them.
As for the she said, she said between Chloe and Lauren, I think Chloe blocked all the women because of their toxic behavior and Lauren made up a justification that it was over Michael. Lauren seemed to have built up in her mind that “the people” want them together so it’s meant to be, but I didn’t see that on Michael’s end, other than him being a bit flirtatious by nature, as he is with Chloe, too. But I also don’t necessarily believe that one of the women “created a burner Facebook account” to bully Chloe. There are plenty of crazed fans out there, not to mention the 30 and under crowd would more likely bully over Instagram, Tik Tok, or X/Twitter. Leave the FB bullying to the Boomers and maybe Gen X.
Emily’s therapist maybe should have been a bit more emphatic with pointing out there’s a fine line between self-esteem and narcissism. I like being number one and my 50% is better than everyone else’s 100%. Okaaaaay. Not to mention doubling down that it’s “healthy” to still be this angry over Brennan. Why isn’t her therapist bestie helping her work through this? Is it because she’s still angry, too (albeit on a much smaller scale)? At least Lauren and Becca have let go of a lot of the men haters club hoopla. I mean, I guess Lauren was still talking some smack about Orion. But you can tell Becca was just hurt and sad/disappointed more than angry all along. The guys and Chloe seem to all just want to move on and put this in their past with some lessons learned. Cam and Brennan both had looks of trepidation and shell shock when they were forced to show up for their one appearance at the animal sanctuary, but I guess I don’t blame them for being worried that they were walking into another trap to be attacked. Austin seemed ready to take accountability for his actions and even admitted going on the date with the producer and lying about it.

Am I the only one who kind of wanted to see Jesse pop Luke in the face? Kristen is out of control, Luke enables her, and Michelle also sucks. I can't believe I like Jesse the most out of that foursome.
What is the response to the AITA scenarios? Everyone sucks here. They’re all terrible and in the wrong. Nina, Danny, and that other couple that’s pregnant (I think Janice? No idea about her husband’s name because he’s so normal) are fine and seem like kind and functional human beings. The rest of the lot I’m not about to attempt to rank who’s the worst amongst Jesse, Michelle, Kristin, Luke—and even Jax and Brittany. You’re all assholes. I guess the other two single friends are okay. The girl is slightly better by trying not to stoke the flames, but the gay guy is messy, too, trying to rile everyone up.

That was actually funny.
But overall, I was very annoyed with the scene, because who believes Jax actually snuck a FILMED event at Sur past LVP. I laughed when her manager dude pointed out they were over capacity for the event. Obviously LVP agreed to this because it brought her money, and it annoys me that she expects me to believe otherwise.
I think Lisa is bitter that they’re using “her show” as a platform to spin off “Jax’s show” that she has nothing to do with. I’m assuming she’s likely pissed about him getting another show on Bravo after probably being happy he was fired from her show. She’s so superfluous that she can’t even prevent Bravo from bringing Jax back into her place of business to spin off his new show.

Hold on. Lisa was saying that what Jax said essentially meant that he thought she was superfluous. Not that he actually used that word. She knows it's not part of his limited vocabulary, lol.
Granted, the spirit of his actual comments of her not being needed equates to superfluous, but she made the dreaded mistake of insisting he used that word. Like, really, Lisa?! Lol

Jax lies about everything. But you know he’s telling the stone cold truth that he never called Lisa “superfluous” because he’s never even heard of that word. Even James had to look it up. But then Jax follows up with “I’m not a gossiper,” and all the credibility he gained with his poor vocabulary went out the window. Though, I did love how they gave him a chyron when he went to James’s house of “ex-SUR employee” as if they aren’t all ex SUR employees.

You may think I’m crazy but I like Jesse. There has been a hint about a secret and it seems to be about Michelle cheating.
On 4/17/2024 at 2:17 PM, AEJ79 said:What's the secret that Luke knows about Michelle?!?
I mean, I think they made it fairly obvious that she was out fucking that famous producer at Chateau Marmont for up to three days straight. Based on what Jax and Luke both said, it seems that Michelle told the girls—and they went and told their guys. Maybe Michelle’s been fucking someone else, too, but that seems to be the “secret” that everyone is aware of (at least spending ann unusual amount of time at this man’s hotel if not outright fucking)—unless they spill something else salacious about her.

S14.E01: Birthday Bombshell
in The Real Housewives Of New Jersey
· Edited by JenE4
I am married to a Jersey Italian, and we’ve had so many debates with him laughing over my pronouncing all of the letters and syllables of Italian foods (mutz vs mozerella, manigot vs manicotti, etc). I also had to resort to looking up actual Italian pronunciations to show him that only Italians in the tri-state area speak like this. (Though, even he doesn’t say “focatch.”) It was only when the “gabbagool” made Tony Soprano pass out and it took extensive googling to translate Jersey Italian of gabbagool to capicola that he admitted that, okay, maybe the NJ/NY Italians went a little too far.
