Real Housewives of New Jersey: You Wouldn't Like Teresa When She's Angry |
06/17/09
Richard, the depth of your imagination is astounding.
Oh, I so wanted Caroline to be the bigger person. Or that matriarch she tries sooo hard to be and it looked for a minute that maybe she was going to be. The way she told Dina to let Danielle speak. *sigh* Then she became the second head in the shouty, crazed, hydra that could only admit (after Jacqueline outed them all) that both she and Dina had derived pleasure from passing that book around like a high school "burn book." Did you catch Dina's need to be protected during the fight? First she stood by Caroline, then Teresa, then she tried to get Jacqueline into it...after all tactics failed, she wanted to run away and leave the party before any other misdeeds could surface. Classic kid sister hiding in everyone's skirt folds. I'm confused as to why Dina can't fight her own battles. She just taught Lexie a valuable lesson in not owning up to your own wrongdoing.
Teresa was hilarious. I think she just lost it once it dawned on her that the evening she planned was going to be dominated by Danielle again. Heh. While I think Danielle was right, if not balsy, to bring the brouhaha up, Teresa was justified in wanting to have a peaceful, stupid, housewarming, dinner date with everyone in the Fran Dresher nasal land of all she surveys.
Also, loving Jacqueline's husband. He shut the whole thing down pretty succinctly, and made everyone, just everyone, look rather childish. But the real star was Jacqui. Good on her! Not just for telling the truth, but for having a backbone, and taking back some control. She needed to put dem bishes in check, yo. Glad she got on with it.
Season 2 should be divine.

if there isn't another season, all the tv's across the land should go dark in remembrance.

I mean...
What happens to a meme deferred?
Does it dry up
Like a raisin in the sun? (um, Danielle???)
Or fester like a sore-- (TT's bubbies!)
And then run? (Dina's husband!)
Does it stink like rotten meat? (Juicy Joe's wine cellar!)
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet? (Caroline's faux mediating!)
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load. (Jacqui on Chris, post indignant rage!)
Or does it explode? (Theresa!)
I always knew New Jersey was filled with terrifying, beautiful poetry.

Richard, not only do you write these hilarious recaps, you have to suffer through the show to do so. For that I give you a mansion of onyx and granite, and a pair of bubbies. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Danielle, though. What a damaged person. No doubt there was tons of production set-up in that showdown, but did her kids have to be there? She seemed to be playing some sort of role in a soap opera in her mind. But behaving so obnoxiously, so ungratefully, so selfishly, I can't feel sorry for her. I wonder if she got some bonus cash specifically to start a scene, out of the blue. Teresa's a piece of work, but she invited the woman, they were all having a pleasant time, then boom- Danielle's j'accuse, and drag-queeny snaps. "Oh honey, please."
Don't understand Jacqueline's well-meaning angry defense of a woman she barely seems to know. Seems foolish, she's stuck with this family forever, Danielle's manipulative "friendship" hardly seems worth it.

Also, "Done like Dominick." All that and Richard can rap too.
