I was actually on Danielle's "side" during her meeting with Kim G in the restaurant. Kim G is definitely a famew***re, camera hog, and backstabbing b. No matter how it came out that Danielle was searching for her biological mother, Kim's behavior in a public place was so far over the top!

Then she is grilling Christopher about meeting with Caroline, embarassing her poor son!
Oh, and the ridiculous rampage she went on in Jacqueline's house...all the swearing and carrying on!

I seriously like Danielle's girls, so somehow, some way, she is doing something right with them for them to be the way they are. I cringed bigtime for the oldest daughter when D was grilling her over and over in the gyno's office though.

Huk, point for point, thats exactly how I felt whie I was watching the show last night.
When Kim G is on screen I feel like she is competing to make better TV. How she behaved IN jacquelines house was ridiculous. All for the cameras. It felt as if she was setting Danielle up for this big fall all along. And good for Jac saying she cold see Dani's side, about Danie not knowing that Kim had been talking to the ladies all along. Almost feels like Kim was given scripts and story lines to follow.
Why should she care, after all these years, if Caroline is her friend or not ? Haven't their sons been besties much longer then Danielle has been in the picture ?

Don't you think the restaurant would have escorted them outside once they started yelling? They kept flashing to other guests, and some of them were smiling. Makes you wonder whether it was all set up and we've totally been had. I don't know. Don't really care, because it's entertaining to me, but I'm not sure what is real and what is acting anymore.

The guests certainly looked more entertained than annoyed. Honestly, Kim's whole deal was so ovver the top, and seeing her teeter away in her little mini and heels. I never thought I would say this but how about dressing age appropriate. OMG, I said it !

I have a feeling this show will be over this season. It was WONDERFUL seeing Dina again. I am really hoping if they can save this mess they get rid of Kim G and Danielle and just have Dina.

Also sad about Theresa and Joe's finances. I kind of miss her spending ability. But it really seems like its hitting home. Her blog on Bravo is pretty interesting too, if you ever want to read it.

Huk, I agree. Danielle has to be doing something right.

I wouldn't have a friend like Kim G. She's such a phoney!

The scene where Kim G showed up at Jacqueline's seemed so fake to me.

I hope they are not trying to make Kim D the 5th wheel (to replace Dina). Not a good direction; I cringed when she tried to weasel a luncheon date.

Dina recently had another fundraiser in the area, and it appears as though she is doing very well for her charity.

Two of my husband's doctors are in that medical building. I could not believe they put that 16-year-old through such humiliation. Can't imagine what kids will say/do once she gets back to school!

Jetsfan. Agreed I couldn't believe that "show" with Christine at the Doctors. When they were first walking back I was saying no no surely they arent going to put that little girl in stirrups on tv. I can't imagine how embarassing after her friends saw that on tv

As far as the restuarant not kicking them out for fighting. I have noticed repeatedly they show and mention restaurant names. so much advertising for free they wouldnt dare kick them out. I bet the business is booming

I couldn't help but feel sorry for Joe. He just had a green going to puke look over the money. But after last week all he did for Teresa for the anniversary. He needs to grow a big Italian Stallion set of cahones and put his foot down. Looks like someone did by auctioning off their stuff.

Did anyone notice Danielle stating her daughter's party was free because it was for charity! I can't believe these people. She throws this lavish party, says a few words about a cause, and bang, it's free. I wonder if these people know how despicable they are, or do you think they are totally oblivious?

I wish I knew what world of denial Teresa is living in, I'd like to join her. She's acting as though they are billionaires, and as you stated before, her husband actually looks sick about all the money being spent. Most of the people in these shows have lost total contact with any reality. Sad.

Jgalt, from what I have read, some of the the "confessionals" are filmed quite some time (maybe 3-4 months) after the filming has been done. I don't think Teresa had a clue how bad things were financially when they were filming.

I'm no longer watching this show but... if they are filming in a restaurant and there are patrons that are included in the footage, those patrons must sign a waiver/release for the footage to be used. So yes, the restaurant knows the filming is going on as do the other patrons (which is why half the time you see people just sitting there smiling). And yes, the restaurant gets free publicity (although I'm guessing it doesn't count if ya don't watch the show! lol!).

Lexie_girl - we were asking about you in the Jeff thread! I feel this show has jumped the shark! Did anyone see Teresa on The View?

Good grief.
I don't usally pay attention to this but was reading the WSJ.

Teresa's auction has a mention in the WSJ and has gone worldwide.

It was originally a local affair.
Auction house A.J. Willner says it received so many inquiries from around the world, it decided to add an online component.

Potential bidders can register at Proxibid, a website that does as many as 800 auctions a month and reports bidders from 175 countries.

In this case, it is unclear exactly what will be up for grabs.

The Giudices, who filed for bankruptcy protection, formally objected to the auction.

The couple, who could not be reached because their phone is disconnected, says some of the items scheduled for auction were purchased after the bankruptcy petition, while others belong to relatives.

Is it true that Caroline, Teresa and Jacqueline aren't coming back next year? I read it here on the boards.

Since the Christening for Teresa's baby was held at The Brownstone, I'm sure it was free. They are so busy at that place that they do not even return phone calls quickly anymore!!! My stepdaughter called last year to inquire about having her wedding there.

BTW, the food at The Brownstone is soooo good! I've been there many times, so not sure how much free advertising they need.

Portobello (where the Danielle/Kim G fight took place) is a bit pricey but good. My husband and I usually go there for our anniversary.

Chitchat, I read that they said they will not come back next season if Danielle comes back.

I seriously doubt that the Brownstone "comped" that extravagant christening party.

Yuk to Kim G. Why did she keep swearing in front of the baby? I know the baby doesn't understand yet but still, get off of my TV screen please Kim G.

I don't know why, but I am one of those rare people on here that actually likes Danielle, sometimes! I am surprised at how well her children behave and their manners are better than alot of the grown-ups on the show. I do like Dina, sometimes Theresa, and I really like Jacqueline, and sometimes Caroline annoys me but I do like her and her family values.

I have to give credit to Danielle for the way she is bringing up her kids, they are more than just well behaved, they also have respect for others. As for Jacqueline, her bratty daughter, though I like her, is a real pain in the butt and so immature. I hate the way she talks and responds to her mom, absolutely no respect between parent and child. I feel sorry for J, I can only hope her other 2 kids don't end up like their sister.

Kim G., ugh, she is just a really awful and full of herself phoney person who just wants air time and will do anything to do it for Bravo! I wish her away on the show.

Does Botox make your lip flat on top like Danielle's upper lip? I've seen that look a lot on women lately.

I agree with jetsfan1- the Brownstone does do a nice party - they are even catering the junior football dinner in my town! They were busy before this show started, I can't imagine how busy they are now.

I've heard of Portobello, my sis went to a Christening party there a few yrs ago!

Loved this week's show because there was barely any Danielle. How refreshing. It was a great episode, funny, plenty to keep my attention without any Danielle drama. I did feel bad for Albert and kept wonderingy why Caroline would have him go on a vacation like that when he works so much and why did they not go on a vacation alone. I could totally watch a show of just these women and their families and their antics.
