costa - mama is the stage mama that is encouraging that attitude - that attitude is what some producers want for some parts! I hope she doesnt get parts, and can just be a little girl (I cant forget the recital that mom put make up on when Gia clearly told her mom she wasnt to have glitter, and mom rationilized/believed it for the best - etc )

I guess it just depends on the Child. My girls could totally say something like that,with a very serious,deadpan expression and be absolutely joking.So I could see the humor,but that's only because my kids are like that.I guess I could see where if she WERE in fact serious,it could be a problem.I just didn't perceive it that way because I am accustomed to my own comedic kids.We have a very laid back household,so we prank and joke alot. We major In Smart Ass and Minor in Prank..

Honestly,the most common phrase in our home is "Are you serious?" Second only to "jackass"....People on the outside probably tend to think we are dysfunctional. I prefer to think we are functional with a dash of Humor.Our motto is laugh or cry,and crying gives me a headache..Yeah I think Gia is a cute kid,and I wonder what ep. of Gossip Girl she is on? (not that I watch the show) but would to like to see Gia,just cause I'm curious.

You should watch the episode itself. She had no control of the wedding, it was all about what he wanted Ginger1218, can the episode be seen online? Would I just go to youtube and put in Platinum Weddings? What were the names, as she goes by her maiden name. I'm very curious to see how he acts towards her. I think she is very pretty. Thanks.

Something else I noticed..Danielle's oldest daughter,have yall noticed how she keeps her hair in her face ALL the time? I wonder if it's because of the age and that she knows whats going on and doesn't want to be any more humiliated than she has to be?? I just really noticed it today when I was re-watching all the episodes.Also I am sad this season is almost over,I really like the RHNJ..I identify with the mothering types and the focus on kids..

why did they invite Danielle to the dance lessons? It seems they did so they could have somebody to talk about. I just don't understand why they keep inviting Danielle to do things if they are just going to hate on her. Still, I'm not a fan of Danielle's but she was the best dancer, lol. Is it just me or does Danielle look like the "Count" or whatever her title is, the lady from RHNYC?

Cricket, Here's a link to Dina's wedding. DINA'S WEDDING I disagree that she had no control over the wedding. Tommy kept increasing the guest list but she was the one who ordered over 300,00 in flowers! He's no catch imo, had already cheated on her a few times!

Danielle was interviewed as part of a segment on reality TV stars this morning on Good Morning America. The host of the segment said something about those with a past must choose between "fame or shame. And fame wins every time." Which pretty much is spot on. Danielle had to know that her past, even with a name/location change, would come out. So she intentionally chose fame. As far as why she was invited to the dance studio, I think that because she is also part of the show, the others are required to include her in various activities. Otherwise, I think we'd be too lucky and we'd never see her on our screens!

I just finished watching last night's episode. I was glad to see Jacqueline finally grew some, telling Danielle that she could not sit and listen to Danielle spouting off about her family. As to whether she (Jacqueline) enforces it remains to be seen. Theresa was adorable with getting new "bubbies." And her husband... flipped from "do what you want" to "get the biggest you can". Hahaha! Danielle, btw, managed to throw herself a lovely pity party. Oh woe is me, everyone bailed on me, no one likes me, I just want to be loved... Yuck. Definitely made me like her even LESS, if that is possible. She made her bed, choosing fame over shame by going on this show, and now needs to lie in it. This was a Danielle drama free week (except for the final few minutes when she met Jacqueline at a restaurant). Next week looks to be the opposite, though.

The whole scene with Danielle and Steve was so odd. IMO, I don't think he thought they were in a real relationship, he looked like he wanted to laugh the whole time. I mean weren't they only seeing each other for a few months? Not too long ago she was meeting a stranger in a bar. I know people say Dina is such a *B* but she doesn't bother me...I thought the scene between her and lexie was cute.

No,I believe Dina was trying to assist Teresa's husband in holding Teresa back from Danielle.And from what I saw,it didn't look like an easy task. I never thought of Dina as a *B*,except maybe a little from the sneak preview ep. I relate to her and Caroline with their mothering ways. And of course this is the episode Danielle's daughter proved my post wrong in the ep by showing her entire face.She is also VERY tall!! never noticed that before.And I loved,loved,loved that scene where she talked about her moms "goodies" <shudder>..It was hilarious and it really pissed Danielle off.. Caroline is still my fav,Dina coming in Second and Teresa right behind her. I am sad about there only being 6 eps and would like to know why.. And I saw the promo for NYC Prep,somehow I think that show would probably annoy me..

Yeah, for the life of me I can't figure out why this series is only six episodes long when the other series are usually between eight to ten episodes long.

And where is the father of Danielle's daughters? There is never any mention of them! i really like these housewives, they seem very family oriented. Teresa cracks me up with all the clothes and accessories she took for 2 days! You can't make that stuff up!

Danielle "breaking up" with Steve in a diner was hilarious! I'm pretty sure she was just a booty call for him, and it didn't matter to him that she was "breaking up" with him! I like Dina. I think she's got a bit of a 'tude sometimes, but I think she's pretty real.

I was busting up laughing from when Lexi went to Cyprus. That is me with my kids. They have never gone overseas, but have gone many places on airplanes, and I'm a wreck. But they always come home! With no diseases! (knock on wood!)

Rslover stated: Cricket, Here's a link to Dina's wedding Thank you soo much for posting that, Rslover. Wow! I can't believe her husband kept inviting people up to the last minute. He's cute and seems to love her a lot, but it's like he just kept ignoring her pleas to stop inviting. People have said Dina's gained weight and she said 10 lbs. on this weeks show, but the one I've really noticed it on is Caroline. She looked a lot thinner in the video. Did Danielle actually convince Jacqueline that it was Dina spreading the gossip and the book around? Jacqueline might have wanted to actually talk to Dina and straighten things out, rather than 'assume' it was Dina because Danielle said so. It wasn't Dina at all and here's Danielle just bashing her up and down and swearing it's her. I felt so very bad for Danielle's daughter this week when she was talking about the men wanting the 'goodies' from her Mom. When will that woman grow up and realize she isn't their friend; she's their mother and they shouldn't be hearing/seeing the stuff they do. They keep showing us better stuff coming next week. Arghhh...I hate when they do that, but I keep watching..so I'm the dummy, lol. Teresa was fuming! She's usually so laid back. Her husband was turning red trying to hold her back. It looked to me like Dina was trying to comfort her or help the husband. I slow mo'd it and noticed he was holding her on the sides of her arms so as not to hurt the new "boubbies" lol. I don't know how it will turn out, but I hope it teaches Jacqueline to get to the source of the truth and not believe everything people like Danielle say. I just can't find anything redeeming in Danielle; whereas I can with the rest of the cast. I sure wish they'd recast her next year.

It looked like Teresa's husband was holding her by the neck. I would love to see Teresa kick Danielle's skanky butt. Is it Danielle that Teresa is going for? I could't tell, but by the previews it seems like she is pissed at someone.

I assumed Teresa was going for Danielle. Teresa was pretty pissed off at Danielle during/after the dance lesson, and looked like she was ready to go after her then. Hope I'm right.

.... how about Teresa flipping the table...I would have love to have been there to see that. The reason the producers WON'T replace Danielle next season is because she does cause drama and we are all talking about it...the rest of the women all get along so it wouldn't be much fun.}

I had never seen this show (only recently got BRAVO) and since nothing was on last night I watched it. My first thought was "who do these women think they are?" and "are these Mafia wives?", LOL. It was especially funny to me when they were upset about what it sez Danielle has done in the book. then I was cracking up when that women (don't know all their names, sorry) was upset that Danielle was dancing with her son, he's a grown man, should be able to take care of himself and Mom should butt out, LOL. I thought the show was the funniest thing I had seen in a long time and was amazed at how seriously these people take themselves. Oh and then that one husband pulls out a wad of cash 3 inches thick to pay the movers, LMAO, I wonder if the IRS has visited them yet.

Lotsofkids...the only thing I've seen with regard to Danielle's daughters' father is when Danielle was on the phone asking him for her settlement money.
