Y’all I have a slight headache tonight and I do not want to make it worse by listening to Jennifer scream for another full hour like last week. So, I may not do a full RHONJ Reunion recap of the whole show. However, I did a poll on Twitter a few days ago and the results showed this was the show they were most looking forward to this week! I think this is the night the husbands come out so maybe she will shut up long enough for that. I actually like Jennifer for than most people, but she is trying way to hard to impress the producers and Bravo suits who are in the room.
One of the RHONJ producers finally quit after this year to move on to other things. She was an amazing lovely person who I can’t believe stayed on this mess as long as she did. Also, a couple of Bravo suits have “left the building” recently. So depending on who came to the taping, she might be wasting her time. I am hoping the suits have all left by now and she calms her ass down a bit.

We start with Melissa confronting Teresa about always expecting to be defended but not defending her. Teresa essentially doubles down by sticking up for Jennifer again. Then Andy continues to play the role of 7th housewife by trying to explain to Jennifer that when Melissa said that Jackie was “winning” it wasn’t an insult to anyone. Jennifer apologizes for throwing the knife. They all agree not to throw things in exchange. Andy says they need to include flipping tables in that.
Teresa Tries To Judge Caroline Manzo’s Character? LOL
Teresa says she was not thrilled doing the commercial with Caroline. Teresa was mad because when she and her attorney and Caroline talked before hand Caroline was insisting that they sit down and talk things out before hand. Everybody knows Teresa is way too immature for that. Clearly, Teresa still thinks Caroline is to blame for her going to prison. Teresa says she doesn’t thing Caroline is a good person. I am trying not to laugh because it makes my head hurt. Teresa continues to say that the only time Joe was mean to her was on the show. Melissa says that is not true. Teresa says they had a great marriage. Melissa says she can do a lot better. Teresa seemed pissed off by that comment.

Oh, Andy is going to call Teresa out for having had a boy friend for months if not years. I think he might have already done this on the WWHL where Joe Skyped in. Teresa claims that she did not have sex with the guy she was with. Then Andy plays a package about the guy Teresa has been sleeping with. Teresa got really pissed at Margaret for making comments about young guys. Andy wants to know how the kids felt about the cheating rumors. Teresa says her kids don’t go on the Internet. I laugh and my head hurts. Gia found out from Joe’s brother Pete. She was pissed at him for talking to her about it. So clearly Joe knows Teresa was screwing around. I actually don’t blame Teresa for screwing around. Joe sure did enough of it. Joe’s whole family and it sounds like the housewives agree that if they were not on the show Joe would not have gotten caught. Teresa wants a nice Jewish guy.
Teresa Wants To Have A Baby Boy!?
WTF? Teresa us talking to Andy about dating and I am frantically trying to figure out where the photos I pulled are. All of the sudden after lots of yadda yadda yadda, I hear Teresa say she would love to have a little boy with her next man. This surprises me. It would kill Gia and the girls. Would Gia have to raise a baby? She’d have to drop out of college! Teresa says she might freeze her eggs. A fight breaks out between Melissa and Jennifer because Jennifer said that Melissa is too self-absorbed to have another baby. Hush now, Melissa. Jennifer is being quiet during Teresa’s segments and I’d like her to stay that way.
The Husbands Arrive Carrying Bill Ayden
Frank says that he has a girlfriend. She doesn’t spend the night at the house with Delores. Delores says he has a curfew. She’d 30. She seems a bit irked by the conversation. Or the girlfriend. Margaret’s Joe is currently allowing other contractors in the house. Margaret is apparently not having an affair with any of them yet. Joe says they are all his friends. Joe Gorga defends his low sperm count by saying he could get Andy pregnant. I think Andy would enjoy the attempts if not else. Evan and Teresa have a chat about introducing her to all his Jewish friends. Hey Evan, know any in Atlanta? I’m asking for a friend.

Lot’s of talk about sex and sex tapes and Danielle’s sex tape. Joe Gorga still doesn’t want his 13 year old daughter to participate in sex education classes. Frank seems to indicate he would get back with Dolores if he could. But she’s not having it. Frank agrees that Delores should not move in with David. Evan believes in having their children earn things that they want.
When Andy asks what Jennifer thought of Joe Gorga saying her husband should have sex with her more often. She says her husband is “fully loaded” while Joe is shooting blanks. I guarantee you that Jennifer went down the list of everyone on the couches and chairs and made a list of shady comments for everyone. It’s actually a smart idea. Some of the housewives pay ghostwriters to do that before the reunion. I’m not kidding. I am not recapping all of this sex talk. I do not need or want to know about these people’s sex lives.
Jackie Keeps Winning
Oh God, I had forgotten about Danielle. They film her arriving in the parking lot. But first, a commenter calls out Jennifer for being a bully on TV and the Internet. Then Jennifer says that Jackie is boring and money can’t make her interesting. Jackie was very mad that Jennifer would do that because they were friends. She expected it from Teresa because they were not. A reader points out that Jackie is several IQ points above Teresa and Jennifer and asks if it is embarrassing having to argue with them. I love this question, but the best part was Teresa’s response. “Whaaaa??? That’s a stupid question.” She’s irked and I am happy because it is now confirmed that she knows that everyone knows how dumb she is. Jackie says, “I will just say I am not nervous to argue with anyone because I don’t think anyone else is going to win.” BAM!

Jennifer continues to try to answer everyone else’s questions. Margaret has finally had enough and the episode one yelling returns. Thankfully we are almost out of time. Somehow, we get on the topic of Chanel. Apparently, Jackie is in head to toe Chanel every time Jennifer sees her. I never knew that because nothing Jackie wears has the LABEL all over it to advertise that fact unlike Jennifer. When Melissa points out that she literally point to every Chanel emblazoned thing she owns and screams Chanel, Chanel, CHANEL!!, Jennifer denies that. Jennifer is delusional. Does she not know she is being filmed? Andy asks if Jackie is opening to making up with Jennifer. She says no. She works very hard to keep toxic people out of her life. GOOD FOR HE!
I can’t believe this show won my Twitter poll. I am waiting for Project Runway’s finale tomorrow night! Back stage Danielle is already showing signs of mental illness or something. I don’t say that lightly. She is demanding to sit next to Andy because she thinks she is “an original housewife.” Was she ever an actual housewife or just a friend?
So what did you think?
Really, I wish Jennifer would shut up. Shutupshutupshutupshutupshutup.
All the guys but Evan creep me out. It’s like they love being househusbands.
I think Evan is a lovely, authentic person…..he and Jackie (& their children) seem like they (truly) have a good life together.
Did Danielle watch RHOC and think mimicking Vicki Gunvalson was the model for how to be an OG?
I think she forgot to see what that behavior got Vicki!
Jackie and her family are too good to be on this show.
Yes. Yes they are. But I hope we get to keep them. They are what the shows were supposed to be about before we started having the criminals on. Jennifer actually fits that profile too. So both would be cast in the old school way because they both have money and they are so different that they make good foes from a casting perspective. None of the Gorgas fit that bill. I am not sure any of them would be cast other than those two if they went back to what they were trying for before the franchises became about misogyny and criminal behavior and such.
Yes, I really enjoyed both of their families. They both have younger kids and I think they are both doing a pretty good job with their kids. They have that in common.
yes! One word…class. I love it. Gives credence to the old adage “money talks, wealth whispers”.
I watched some of the first reunion but the screaming immature brat made me turn the channel. Maybe when I am bored I will go back and watch the next ones.
Honestly, you can skip the first one and this one in my opinion. I think you get the gist of it here. They save anything interesting for the last one. And other than Danielle’s temper tantrum and perhaps Margaret coming for Teresa I doubt they have much for next week.
Will Bravo figure out if it’s an hour long Jennifer Scream-Fest, most sane folks will delete and change the channel? Asking for a friend. (For Jennifer fans, hope they rename the show JenniferOfNJ and pay her for being the show-runner.)
Or Jennifer of Paramus
Lol, exactly. If ex-Gov Christie blamed the Boardwalk’s own Snooki for dragging NJ’s rep into the dumpster, just imagine what Mrs Plasticized Paramus does for the NJ professional class. Yikes!
(she’s unrecognizable in this season’s show clips, right? Dolores cheers on all the surgery bc its ‘free’ 😬At least the others attribute their gruff manner to their italian upbringing, but hypocritical JennbotBully triples down holding herself out as a role-model with some supreme right to shame all others, only proving she’s the savage 🙄)
I tried to watch, but kept changing the channel back and forth. Jennifer is obnoxious. There was nothing impressive about her screaming and nonstop diarrhea of the mouth. I will be glad for RHONY to start. It doesn’t have a forced feeling to me. Jennifer screaming to be relevant is just too much.
Despite the conversation actually being about her, Teresa seemed very slow to respond. It seemed as if she was half paying attention to the show. I wanted to scream “Pay attention PA-LEEESE”
hahaha good one! I actually heard Danielle’s voice as I read that!
She seemed like she was on Xanax or something. Seemed slower than normal and very blasé during both episodes. Maybe she needs it because she finally realized the viewers don’t think very highly of her.
I don’t think Danielle will make it out of the dressing room next week. I think she will walk off the set.
I hope she walks off…not interested in hearing anything she has to say. Though it would be fun to watch her and Teresa go at it regrading the ponytail incident.
I hope she walks out BECAUSE Andy says NOE to her demand and then someone from production KICKS her out. And WTF is Marty doing there with her? Other than being a child-rejecting idiot.
Yes. How can any parent be around another human being that nasty shit about your children? I get worked up about my own mother giving me advice about my boys, and I also get worked when FIL gives me advice. But it is advice. I would throat punch someone if talked about my kids like that.
No, don’t believe it, she’s ALL about maximum drama. She wouldn’t DARE miss her moment in the spotlight. She’s just gonna make them work for it
*deep breath*
Jennifer has gotten under my skin. My blood pressure was raising for all her cut ins- finally the other couch called her out. If anyone “gets” the show, it would be the Teresa show. They didn’t have a season the whole time she was in prison (not camp or away). Jennifer looks Desperate. I LOVED that the guys were on way more, I loved that they kinda shut up Jennifer. I loved how they were open to talking about their sex lives (or lack of) and they made it relatable. I love the husbands.
*exhale*
Thank you for the recaps.
Please cancel this shit show Bravo
Theresa is 48, I can’t imagine that her eggs are viable at that age. Add to it that she would be in her 70’s before this hypothetical child was launched.
She’s not in the least bit interested in having another child and if she thinks some nice Jewish guy is going to go for her, she’s out of her mind
Exactly! Because nice Jewish guys have nice Jewish MOTHERS who would kill their own sons before they would let them go NEAR Theresa.
Why does anyone think Jennifer’s kids are well behaved? All we see is footage of them screaming; running around in restaurants; telling Jennifer what to buy them on Amazon; and waving serious cash around in front of strangers. Even Jennifer calls them “savages”. How does any of this equal good kids?
Again I had to ask myself why do I continue watching this? Yes the husbands were somewhat amusing and seem not to take the crap so seriously or personally. Teresa is a horrible person and I hate to name call but the woman is not very bright at all (okay I was going to say dumber than dumb. Jennifer was obnoxious Again and I found it irritating regardless of her motives of either knowing how to bring the drama sly like a fox or just desperate for attention, yes she called out Melissa on her fake stories which was entertaining but I found her behavior last night way to over the top….she seems to be the most desperate housewife of the real housewives. I lmao at her saying she will give her husband a quick bj….I have had botox and fillers and couldn’t even whistle for almost two months. My comment to my sister was I can’t believe husbands are paying for this if the wives can’t even whistle then how are they performing Like a Prayer on them. Think I will be taking this one off of my watch list….but will continue reading the great recaps here. Thank you TT.
Loved everything you wrote!
I can sum up the episode…
Jennifer sucks all of the oxygen out of the room…part II.
GReat recap! Dolores was on WWHL and was asked something about Jennifer’s behavior. Dolores said That Jennifer really likes her job. I took that as she is being over the top to keep her spot on the show. .Jennifer seems to take a page out of NeNe, Vicki and Kenya’s play book in order to be the loudest, rudest, most obnoxious housewife. I like Dolores at times. She seems to say a lot by saying very little.
Andy REALLY needs a conch for the RHNJ reunions. But then again, Jennifer/Jack would crush it with her Chanel-clad ass. And Teresa/Roger wouldn’t get it at all.
While Jennifer was an over the top buttinski, I find her very quick witted and entertaining. She threw Melissa off her guard and had Melissa stalling with a response to allegations of her ridiculous fakery. She’s on the show as Teresa’s sister in law and that’s about it. She should be a “friend of” to keep Tarzan in the mix.
The Marge also tries real hard, throws stuff and says terrible things, but gets a pass because she has a fan base. At the core of all of this is a cheater who was sued for fraud in her business dealings and married a dud. She fits the thug category for Jersey casting. Keep her.
Too bad Jackie won’t give Jennifer another chance. That can’t negate being boring and smart enough to be able to take on morons in an argument. Jackie seems nice and doesn’t fit in with this group at all.
Dolores and Teresa are like fambily, I doubt Dolores is going anywhere.
Don’t see a need for a Part 3 for this reunion. Too bad Danielle showed up.
