In a scene nearly as dramatic as the time Aviva confronted Sonja about skipping a charity spin class to spend time with her dog, a New Jersey judge sentenced Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Teresa and Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice to 15 and 41 months in prison, respectively, for bankruptcy, mail, and wire fraud.

On the left: a courtroom sketch of Real Housewife of New Jersey Teresa Giudice and her husband Real Guy Who Lives in New Jersey Joe Giudice, drawn by artist Shirley Shepard as the two pled not guilty to federal fraud charges Wednesday. On the right: a flesh sketch of two humans, drawn by God on a day when he was "all…

The dramatic feud between Teresa Giudice and the government of the United States of America is exploding faster than a fight at a child's christening after some guests find out they weren't invited to help pick out baby-themed charms for the Pandora bracelets in the christening gift bags like Jacqueline was, even…

Threats of grievous bodily harm have been the Real Housewives of New Jersey's bread and butter since way back in season one, when all the ladies took turns cracking their necks and implying super vaguely that their families were in the mafia. On last night's season four reunion show, though, things got real scary,…

Well that's it! After approx. six hundred and twenty-nine episodes, the third season of Bravo's documentary about prison escapees has come to a groaning end. What was all brightness and warmth ended in rot.

Last night's episode of Real Housewives of Trash Island brought us back to Punta Cana for another round of sex jokes, and then it ended with a song.

It seems there was a surprise visit during a recent taping of Real Housewives of New Jersey. New cast member Melissa Gorga had a run-in with her old boss from Lookers, a strip club. Yooops!

Teresa Giudice, Real Housewives of New Jersey star and proven finance wizard, has been tapped as a cast member for the next season of Donald Trump's chief source of income, Celebrity Apprentice.

This season's requisite Vacation Story began last night, with the Wives all traveling to Punta Cana down in the D.R., a balmy and breezy place, a relaxing place, the perfect place to start a pointless fight.

This longest season of Franklin & Trash (Franklin Lakes, that is) continues to lurch along, with last night's installment showing us even more of the Joe/Teresa feud and lots of sad footage of everyone running. But from what??

Last night's episode of The Sisters Pose 'n' Swag was basically about the same old fights as always. Well, the issues were the same, but the circumstances were different. Also, Juicy Joe fell down.

Last night's episode of Lady Marmalade(-Colored) picked up where the Jacqueline/Bouffant blowdown left off last week. And then things got worse. And then worse still! Mother and daughter are at wits end.

On last night's episode of Rhymes With Orange, our wivery wives were done with New Year's, finished with the holidays, so it was time to get down to work. They rolled up their sleeves and barreled off into January.

Last night's episode of Everyday Italians featured the ringing in of the New Year, that grand tradition of celebrating time's zooming pace with confetti and alcohol and dancing. It's a nice tradition! One that not even these ghouls could muck up.

I was determined not to say anything about the interminable Real Housewives of New York reunion, but after watching the three-hour cackling death march, I couldn't remain silent. There's something very wrong with the Housewives, and someone needs to fix it.

The world's longest Christmas ever continued (and finally ended?) on last night's episode of As the World Turnpikes, with the opening of presents and the spreading of a temporary, tentative peace throughout the land. Let's open the gifts and then burn all the wrapping.

On last night's episode of Brawl in the Family, it was finally, foreal this time, Christmas. Actual honest-to-goodness Christmas, with Santa and presents and all that. Well, actually, it was just Christmas Eve. And first we had to finish a party.

Last night's episode of The Tan Without a Face saw everyone preparing for Christmas, hanging stockings with care and trying desperately to not get in another huge family brawl. Well, actually, they weren't trying that hard at all.

It was beginning to look a lot like Christmas on last night's episode of Orange You Glad, with trees decorated and a general holiday cheer filling the air. Though there was also a chill, a deep sad wintry shudder that drafted through Franklin Lakes.
