Maharincess February 18, 2016 Share February 18, 2016 (edited) She's the only reason I ever watched this bullshit. She just seems like such a nice woman. I remember her bonding with George Hamilton on Wife Swap, he seemed to really like her. I hope that show was scripted and her kids don't really treat her that badly. It looks bad but she's a fighter.

punkypower February 18, 2016 Share February 18, 2016 I got into Mob Wives because of my Dad. He watches very few current shows. Up to season 3, I would go and watch it with him at his house. After two episodes of MW: Chicago, I was out. I just came back for the last season. My Dad doesn't understand reality tv, and has started this season to suspect that it's not real. I explained that it's probably not totally real, and the ladies are told what's going to happen/what they need to do, and the rest is real. More than anything, Ang brought realness to the show and to us, long before the cancer. After she was diagnosed and up until the end, she awed us with how she fought, and she also made cancer real to us. The title of this thread is perfect Ang, as is her quote RIP, Big Ang!!

Shoppergal February 21, 2016 Share February 21, 2016 I just binge watched this whole season in homage to Big Ang...Honestly didn't catch The brunette was a cokehead...Marisa? Mellisa? I gues it says something that I can't remember her name. Drita has grated from almost episode one. Her BS about them being fake because they realize they all have to work together and be civil is so stupid. Add on that her egging Britney on at the sit down, it was really messy and I thought she was the one with the most sense. /small voice....I liked Karen this season. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18804-mob-wives-general-discussion/page/10/#findComment-1980321
RCharter February 21, 2016 Share February 21, 2016 I cannot stand Marissa but she actually wanted to talk to Brittany and Brittany just wanted to fight. More camera time for B? I guess we'll see how that pans out. Marissa's outfit was pretty ridiculous. I love Ang but I did not like that she was shit stirring this episode between those two I don't think Marissa just came there to talk, the way she was talking, in that condescending and patronizing tone seemed like she was begging for a fight. She just didn't want to be the one to actually say anything. I think she is the sort of girl that would wear that silly ass outfit just to fight because she is on TV and she wants to look like a star at all times. She might be just a little more parched than Brittany, but its so hard to tell since I think both of them are phonies of the highest order. And why was Brittany wearing a torn shirt in her scene with Karen? Was she planning to fight again? Or were those tears intentional? Tears in a shirt don't look cool, they just make you look like you don't have decent clothing at home. One of the holes was right next to her bra too....SMDH. I think Karen just has an annoying demeanor, but she actually makes sense a lot of the time. She had a point about how she asked Karen to respect her by not being mean to Brittany and Renee did that. She asked the same respect from Brittany in not fighting Marissa. As for Drita, girl bye, I don't think I watched the first episode where Drita choked someone, so I didn't see it, but Drita is Queen of talking a lot of shit and doing nothing. I get where drita is coming from, its hard when you're upset and people keep invalidating that feeling. At the same time, I think Drita should have told brittany from the jump that there wasn't going to be a meaningful fight with security all around, so if she really wanted to fight, she should wait for it to happen when they weren't filming and bring a camcorder to show everyone.

Yeah, but if the story is right, it was the mob guys she hung with back in the day who didn't want them there, because of their fathers. Apparently there is/was this deep rooted thing about rats bringing disgrace and dishonor to your entire family or whatever. So I guess it was the old mob guys making sure the family suffered for their patriarchs ratting. And Sammy Gravano was a big ol' deal in NYC back in the day....but still.....seems a little harsh. Maybe Neil just didn't want the trouble of having to deal with it.

I've decided that I hate Marissa more than Brittney. Although, hate is too strong a word since I don't care about either of them. I find Brittney slightly less annoying. If I hear Marissa argue one more time that she deserves respect because she is dating some dude I'll scream. Maybe if she went out of her way to earn her OWN respect, I would respect her. But damn, it just seems like she is using dating this guy as an excuse to be a bitch and force people to be nice to her. Every other word out of her mouth is about how you have to be nice to her because she is dating this dude. You would think she was married to John Gotti or Paul Castellano or Carlo Gambino. No, she is just DATING some dude that people just KNOW. She isn't involved with some mob boss....goodness. I'm sure in her day Big Ang dated much more important men, but she earned her respect herself.....not by depending on some dude. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18804-mob-wives-general-discussion/page/10/#findComment-1994648
