Yep ~ agree with most everyone here. Vicki and Tamra were shameful. There are no other words for it. Well there are but . . .

Jeanna is no better. Her playing both sides has gotten old for me.

The treatment of Lynn was uncalled for. None of these women lead lives where they can pretend to have better moral character then another.

The treatment of Gretchen was uncalled for. Jeff is the only one who could complain and I have a feeling he knew and didn't care.

The reality of this reality show is I am so happy I don't live near any of them!

In England you're more likely to know about Florence Nightingale than here, I think. As for the old movie references... I have heard of All About Eve but don't remember having watched it.

Here's a little synopsis of All About Eve:

The classic drama of backstage Witchiness (with a "B"), a Broadway diva (Bette Davis) hires the seemingly innocent Eve (Anne Baxter) as her new personal assistant. But Eve turns out to be a conniving opportunist who uses everyone she meets to claw her way to the top. Marilyn Monroe makes an early-career appearance.

And here's a YouTube of it, with the famous line: Fasten your seatbelts...it's going to be a bumpy night.

Oh my, I am from the right era and was thinking the plot of "Three Faces of Eve" instead of the one you outline above!

Hmmmmmmmm

* Inquiring minds want to know if Gretchen Rossi will return next year ?
* What do Jeff's kids really think about Gretchen ?
* How can Gretchen stand Slade ?
* I would still rather have Gretchen in the show then Jo and Slade.

Last I heard, you can kiss someone and not be involved or in a relationship. Last I heard, having boink buddy sex is not a relationship, it's a friendship.

I'd rather have Gretchen on the show than Tamra or Vicki! Please?

I'd love to find out Vicki & Tamra's reactions to how we all feel about them after the reunion show. I think they know they're not the favorites, and now they're mostly despised.

Vicki found out how many of us felt after last seasons "reunion" show. Yet it apparently made not a whole lot of difference to her. In fact, while it appeared at the beginning that she'd honor our requests to quit the "whoo hoo" screech, she did so for only a couple of episodes.

The attitude of Jeff's daughter towards Jay as stated in AF2's article tells me all I need to know.

Exactly Malaka! Interesting how his kids still have nothing bad to say about Gretchen.

Thanks for bringing the article -

I guess its hard sometimes to keep in mind it is a tv show and they do have some acting and some ''set-ups' for drama (I'm thinking about the gatherings the OC housewives attend)

I found the comments interesting! I like how the author defends that this is Jeff's daughter - and I do wonder if Tamra doesnt feel some fun poking - at least it seems like Vicky and Tamra can be pot stirrers, but not realize it - Girls Just want to have fun after all...

(hard to express my opinion without wanting to make the mods delete - I dont want to be attacking... just noticing their behaviors that are shown on tv...)

The problem I have with the behaviors these women exhibit is that, well, it's on TV and it's all I have to judge them on. Whether or not they are like this in real life, this is how they are being portrayed. Whether the producers stir the pot or not, the things that some of the women say are pretty rude.

It doesn't matter. Unless something happens next season (like, they get a whole new crop of housewives), I'll not be watching. While it's occasionally fun to watch people bickering, it's not fun to watch people get mean about.

I soooo hope Gretchen returns next season. I would not cry if Tamra did not come back. I did like her last season. However, this season she is showing just how catty/insecure she is. She seems to think it is her job to expose the dirty laundry of others???

I am a Jeanna fan. I am rooting for her now that she has separated from her mean hubby and is trying to find someone who will treat her kindly. I thought the birthday date was a bit awkward though. She professes not to be looking to get serious or married right away but she was telling that guy he would need to move to LA if he wanted to be with her!! LOL

I am curious to see what comes of Vicki and her hubby as her children go off to live their own lives.

I love the original OC housewives and cannot wait until next season!!

If I were Donn I would be out the door seven minutes after the last child! The ONLY reason I can think of that he MIGHT put up with Vicki is the money she makes. Does he work?

Here's a little diddy with Gretchen responding to the rumors she cheated on Jeff. Sounds like she's doing a little backpedaling - I do like her but I think she's going to be caught in the web of lies. http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/03/09/real-housewives-gretchen-denies-cheating-on-late-fiance/

I actually don't see any backpedaling at all. Since I like Gretchen, I'm going to believe her until proof otherwise, is provided by this Jay person. He sounds like a tool.

Huk--I think saying that on the 911 call she said he was her boyfriend “Because he was standing right in front of me,” she tells PEOPLE. “I was afraid that he was going to be upset that I was giving dispatch any information about him — whether it was his real name, whether or not he was my boyfriend.” That's a pretty lame explanation. I really do like Gretchen I'm just afraid she's going to be caught in her lies and she'd be best served by telling the truth.

Hmmm, I still don't see it that way. Either way, it doesn't change my world, lol.

Ran across this article in the local paper. Cracked me up because I've had the same experience. Several times and with several wives. LOL

Thanks Bee....I have been too busy to read the paper this week and hey, weren't we suppose to go up to RSM and see out housewives? Haha...I went to Hannah's restaurant a few weeks ago but no sightings.
