The trailer for RHONJ came out today as well as the news that Danielle Staub is not a full-time housewife.
Here is the season synopsis.
This season on “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” the women are faced with new trials and tribulations that test their close-knit friendships. In the midst of their newfound familial peace, Melissa is thrown a curve ball when Joe and Teresa decide to open a family restaurant without consulting her. Dolores has finally found the man of her dreams, but when her ex-husband asks to move back home, it jeopardizes her own romantic future.
After finding overwhelming success with her book and speaking engagements, Siggy decides it’s time to take her career to the next level. Ironically, this causes relationship issues of her own as her husband questions her commitment to work-life balance.
Meanwhile, as Teresa comes to terms with life as a single parent with Joe in prison, her world becomes further fractured by the heartbreaking and sudden death of her mother. The dynamic of the group gets thrown off-course when Danielle Staub re-enters the picture after years of total absence, threatening a 20-year friendship between Teresa and Dolores.
Tensions rise even more between Siggy and new housewife Margaret on a ladies trip to Boca, forcing all of the ladies to quickly choose sides. After years of rebuilding old relationships and establishing new ones, will these women rise above the obstacles thrown at their friendships, or will they realize that some bonds are, in fact, meant to be broken?
Danielle is actively encouraging her “mafia” to tweet Andy Cohen and demand that she be made full time. Something tells me Andy will not love this idea.
RHONJ returns October 4th.
Danielle has fans??
My exact thought upon hearing this.
I’m just relieved Jaq is gone.
My exact thought also.
Great minds & all that.
Nothing attractive about her.
My thought as well.
they call themselves Danielle’s Mafia ?
LOL I said the same thing, she has fans??
Lol….that was my thought, Danielle has fans???
Oh look. They’re all the same shade of spray tan.
And Melissa has lobb-sided boobs!
“lobb” sided? Is she playing tennis? LOL
How the hell do they keep that spray tan residue off a white dress? That’s where their real talent lies.
Thank you Bravo, no Jac. Danielle will have to do her messy work quick and dirty. Can not wait for the recaps, I am so not into this group.
I always disliked Danielle would be happy never to hear her name again. RHNJ would have be better to drop Treasa. I was never a fan but after finding out all the things her and Joe done and continue to sue her attorney for her filing false paperwork ..in the words of Shannon (RHOC) I’m Done I’m Done.
Thank the lucky stars we don’t have to hear Jaq whine this year while getting plastic surgery all the time but their finances are a mess because they have a special needs child. Thousands of women deal with special needs kids ( me included) without money. I actually like Doloras and Siggy. So my FF button will be used a lot while attempting to watch this season.
Never thought I’d say this but with OC being such a dud am looking forward to this. No Jacqueline yeah!
idk why the cast photo bugs me so much. it just looks so cheap
Like them. ??
I would like to know why Melissa thought Joe and Teresa should consult her before opening a restaurant?
If my husband were opening a restaurant with his sister, I would certainly expect to be involved!
Oh of course. I assumed her husband Joe but he’s in jail isn’t he.
@Jeloi: I would expect my spouse to consult with me before undertaking such a venture. Putting any financial investment aside, the time commitment alone to a restaurant is huge. Teresa and Joe’s mom has passed away, so single parent Teresa will not have her usual child care provider and with four young girls, her time will be limited and if she is her usual self, she will expect her brother to take up the slack which means more time from his young kids, so yeah, I can see where Melissa would be a little put out not being consulted….then again…the “tension” is probably just their storyline for the season. ?
Well said. Marriages don’t do well with secrets. This must be a production fake story line.
@Jelosi: Melissa and Joe are married meaning they are a team in life and finances. Of course she should of been consulted. If restaurant fails, creditors would try to come after Melissa too. I think this is just a staged storyline.
Me too. That’s whack.
I worked in restaurants for years, enjoyed the work and the people that are truly committed to this work.
I was thinking of all the cost percentages, legalities of hiring, etc.
Hi Yoya, hoping all is well with your baby, almost a year old now?
As a fourth generation restaurateur, Joe and Teresa have no business opening a restaurant.
You MUST have flawless credit, impeccable financial wisdom, and endless monetary resources in order to succeed.
Teresa and Juicy Joe stuck a ton of money in a mattress somewhere.
That said why do all these people think they should open a restaurant. I think the Wakiles are opening one too.
Because everyone has that one recipe that they are famous for (See Wakiles and Cannoli) and think having a restaurant is a glamorous job.
I’ve watched more people go broke and it destroy their marriage and families than I care to count.
I’m glad she is not full time. I dislike her outfits. What’s up with the pigtails lady? And Dolores’ Cinderella dress?
Whoever told the blonde that pigtails are in-style for anyone over the age of 5 should be tarred and feathered. Wtf is she thinking?
It’s her signature look. For real. Expect to see them on every episode.
Danielle may be fifty shades of crazy, but she has turned out two lovely and well educated daughters.
Lovely and well behaved daughters, but they are very troubled. I hate that Caroline Manzo said anything about another wife’s children, but she said they look dead in their eyes. She was right. Especially the older girl. Danielle really sunk herself with the way she behaved at a child’s cancer benefit and causing a scene with her Hell’s Angels posse. Then she never showed up with a check that was given to her to present to the family on behalf of some organization. Danielle said she gave it to them, and the family to this day say she didn’t.
When people call the ATL housewives ghetto or violent I always laugh. This trailer has more violence than anything. I’m excited to see Danielle back. If it works out she’ll probably be made full time like they did with Sheree
I’d love to see a series of all the housewives from all the cities, current and former housewives, are stuck on an island resort for like 2 months and all have to deal with each other. Thinking like survivor after 3 weeks they can start voting people off!!!! Oh the fun that would be! Every other night they draw names out of a vase for their new roomie!!! (looking at you Romona and Sonja) Who would watch that????
I would watch. There are a few HW’s that were on for a season or two I don’t know but it would be fun.
All the nasty would come out.
Good times on island time. ?
The NJ crew is too messy for me. All the RH are somewhat shady and batshit crazy. NJ takes that to another level. I stopped watching because of Teresa’s antics & juicy Joe’s creepiness.
This is their cast photo? Why is the white screen behind them dirty? I kept trying to wipe off my phone screen thinking it was dirty finger prints.
Probably just going to watch the recaps. Only ones I like are Dolores and Siggy. Teresa is just an uneducated idiot and her brother creeps me out, I think he’s ugly. Danielle is just plain gross and nothing but trash.
Yesterday they did a jersey marathon. I get so pissed (Not sure why) when Teresa refuses to acknowledge what she did wrong. SHE WALKED INTO A BANK WITH FAKE TAX DOCUMENTS. grrr
Heck, Danielle “fans,” even Luanne had to serve a purgatory of FOH before getting bumped back up to full-time status. And she wasn’t the psycho that Danielle was (is)?
I’m not sure that pigtails are they way to go in a promo picture, maybe at the beach.
Sara, that seems to be her brand, judging from the trailer.
Watching the preview/summary. I suspect I will record and ff through the season until something makes me mad. Then I delete.
But you know I will be on this site daily, reading recaps.
The fake drama is dumb. Life has enough real drama; I wish they would play off that.
Danielle having fans is odd, but she is dynamic.
More Milania, more kids, more cooking and food and family.
Since I am an only child, this series feeds my inner “big family” yearning.
I just cant w/ Teresa or Danielle or Melissa (in that order). Dolores & Siggy…meh
Pigtail lady would be the only reason to watch IMO…only to see what her story line is.
Everyone else either gives me anxiety or don’t care.
Lucy Loo, anxiety is it. I don’t like how this show made ne feel. Had no redeeming quality’s.
I watched seasons 1’and 2 for the first time last week, and I don’t get the Danielle hype.
Criminal type.
allegedly!
OMG I sat here laughing like a fool while reading the comments.
Danielle and Teresa back together two trashbags what a hot mess this is going to be.
