Manzo’d With Children Premieres October 5th !

August 21, 2014 by tamaratattles 80 Comments

Caroline Manzo

I’m so excited for Manzo’d With Children! Even if it is going to be scripted as hell with all the kids pretending to live in the house during filming, including Albie’s girlfriend. I don’t care. I need me some Caroline Manzo. And for the love of God I hope that the press release below will stop the madness about Jacqueline coming back to RHONJ and all the bullshit stories saying she is coming back to save the show. She was LET GO FOR A REASON. She’s boring. Her legal dramas are dragging out so it may take years for her to be a #FelonByBravo (allegedly) and if there is a God there will be no RHONJ by the time she’s wearing orange with the rest of them.

Anyway, here is the official press release…

NEW YORK – August 21, 2014 – Bravo Media’s “The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s” Caroline Manzo and her entire family are back and all under one roof as “Manzo’d with Children” premieres on Sunday, October 5 with back-to-back half-hour episodes at 9p.m. and 9:30p.m. ET/PT. With Albie and Chris joining Lauren and their parents back at home, it’s one crowded house filled with laughter and personality, and they’ve come a long way since the Ham Game. 

This season, Caroline Manzo attempts to be the ring leader of her crazy Italian family and suffering from a severe case of full nest syndrome in the process. In an effort to be responsible and save up for a new apartment, Albie and Chris have made their way back to Franklin Lakes and even though Lauren is now engaged, she still hasn’t left chez Manzo. Albie brings his new girlfriend along for the ride and the two encounter more than just a few bumps in the road when trying to win over the rest of the Manzo clan. In addition to planning the wedding of the century, Lauren is also trying to expand her beauty bar business and she refuses to let her brothers cramp her style. Chris just can’t seem to stay out of sticky situations, especially when the whole family decides to take a trip to the heart of Texas. When it all gets to be too much for Caroline, sister-in-law Jacqueline Laurita is just around the corner to offer her advice. Meanwhile, husband, Al Sr., has no tolerance for all these shenanigans, as he’d rather focus on his upcoming 30thwedding anniversary to the woman who brings everyone together.

I can’t wait! And anyone who disagrees with me is a big ole poopiehead!

      They aren’t unlikeable. They’re just kind of boring, and this is so blatantly scripted that it’s insulting. And, frankly, I’ve never been able to get past the creep factor of the political shadiness and criminal shadiness they’ve been so repeatedly linked with. And anybody who wants to get excited about my misplaced prepositions can go to town because I don’t care right now.

      i like Caroline! and I do not think her children are entitled brats. Chris and Albie worked at the Brownstone. Albie graduated from college, was accepted into law school. (ok he did not graduate but he never claimed to be a lawyer). They lived in a average apt. Chris has a great sense of humor. Yes Lauren could be a little bitchy, In her defense she was really heavy in highschool, she was very open about her brother taking her to prom. Weight was never an issue for me until I broke my foot and perimenopause set in. It makes me a bitch, I find it hard to buy clothes and I am just so uncomfortable. I can not imagine how hard it would be to young and heavy. She looks incredible. Plus out of all the New Jersey housewives, I would like to eat at Carolines. Yes Caroline did get bitchy the last season but I would lose my mind if I had to listen to Tre and Melissa. Also I just want to put this out there…..I know I am commenting a lot but I love TT and most of her commenters, and it is a great outlet for me right now. Thanks all

      BH Wannabe, my point was Lauren did come off as bitchy, and I am somebody who put on weight in middle age and it makes me an uncomfortable bitch. As a young person I would have been unbearable . Call it a personality flaw. I thought Lauren was brave to admit that she was unhappy.

      I think they’ve had issue’s prior. Guessing, and just a guess, most thought all of their “Real Lives” wouldn’t come out. Some of them probably thought they never did anything wrong either.
      Maybe, just MAYBE, the first one or two “Felons By Bravo” slipped out and Bravo thought “ok, cool” , with a side eye, happy face, some free publicity and higher ratings. Now, I’m only guessing. ..they probably cringe every other second! LoL!

        My opinion of them crapping out is from what I have watched on teevee. All 3 seemed motivated, getting an education, had solid plans for their futures, and working. At first anyway. Now it seems like they’ve hitched their stars to being on camera, only. Sure, it’s an honest income for now. I just don’t think their camera time is a safe bet to carry them long term.

        I have adult children that also own businesses. They have careers, too. It’s possible to have long term income and stability, and earn some fun cash when you can. I enjoyed the Manzo kids when it seemed like they were pursuing both, as well. I just don’t get that vibe from them anymore. *shrug*

        There is no shame in inheriting the family business. I wish I was in that position, and I don’t begrudge anyone who is. Al seems hardworking and his children grew up seeing that and must understand the value of it. Having the children take over is many parents dream. It seems like Chris will be able to step into his fathers role when it’s time. If they want to make some money doing the show now, why not?

    I know a couple folks who worked at the Brownstone for years; both, who are retired, had nothing but nice things to say about the family, specifically the Manzo brothers Tommy and Al (“hard working,” “extremely dedicated,”) and Caroline (“very sweet.”)

    Relatedly, one knew Teresa and Joe and said they are disgusting; she more than him. “Materialistic,” “screechy,” “narcissistic.”

    Maybe there is really some “reality” in “reality TV” after all.

        She just seemed grumpy for 3 seasons like she resented being around the other women. Which I totally understand, it would suck the life out of me too. She was much more lively and happy with her family. I like both her and Dina. I think Dina is better for RHONJ and Caroline’s probably better for this.

    I like Caroline and never got why some people hate her so much but love tree stump Teresa. Why wouldn’t her kids want to make some money by being on tv? Pay off student loans, maybe? Wants to know what geniuses some of you pushed out of your twat-waffles. (Love you Tamara)

      Any time an actual celebrity comes on WWHL they almost all say Caroline is their favorite HW. I can’t remember who the last one was but Andy practically had to console her and remind her that she got her own show. ​

        And anytime DLister makes a comment on any of the blogs says the same thing..”I know someone who worked at Brownstone, blah blah” pertaining to any story of Manzo’s or Giudice’s.

    I can’t stand Lauren. As somebody who was once fat and then worked to an ok weight, her constant commentary on her body image is too dreary for my taste.

    Albie is very cute though. He may save the show for me. I mean, one of the boys is gay right? I hope it is him. Chris is ok…. depends on my mood. I’m currently so drained from the negative news at the moment, any lighthearted trash television is welcomed.
