To quote Danielle... SERIOUSLY? The woman shows up with an entire entourage and is surprised they don't have a table for them? For what was, apparently, a PAID event? And LOL @ poor Christopher... the "you're in for a surprise" cuz you're way overdressed because Elmer Fudd is upstairs! LOL again at the fact that it wasn't the Manzos who said anything about the "entourage" leaving, but the sponsors of the event! And major LOLs at the fact that Danielle thought she was queen bee and everyone was there to see her. Um, yeah, no. They were there to support the fundraiser for the little girl. So Danielle... SERIOUSLY? I'd hope that Danielle is suitably embarrassed once she saw the entire bit with Christopher and Kim "G" but I know better. Clueless some? Oh, and definitely classless lots!

Danielle and Kelly apparently live on a different planet than the rest of us. Both of them need to give up the fame hog thing and go back to the swamps (gutters?) from whence they slurked.

As far as scripted, yes, this show seems to be more scripted than the others. Then again, I think Danielle's calculated trouble making is HER scripting things.

I really wish Bravo would ditch the bit... er, witch. I enjoy the Manzos, they crack me up. I would so enjoy this show without that other person on it. I'm not sure I'm gonna stick around the entire season if Bravo insists on devoting half of the hour to that person.

What really surpises me is this Kim "G". Even for the sake of being on television, would you let yourself be surrounded by the company she did for that episode ? Would you invite that into your life ? If this was really how it happened, she must regret that decision. I wonder if we see that later in the show.
Two people seem scripted to me. Obviously Danielle. She is playing this for a future role in a "mob movie" and Theresa. She learned from last season that drama equals screen time. I don't think she would deny that she loves the attention. I don't hink that she is necessarily phony, I just think she works the camera for the show.

Oh Teresa totally works the cam. But I'm not sure much of what she does is scripted. She really does seem like a good mother, and she's a kick to watch with the girls and her hubby. I can sort of imagine that's really what she's like, especially based on Dina's confessionals when she talks about Teresa.

Okay the guys with Danielle,,?? They reminded me of the guys that play thugs in the Disney movies, or "Home alone". Chomping their gum, making threats. Really? I was feeling kind of embaressed for them it was almost comical.
Danielle, reallY? what is the matter with you? Kim G. she was looking a little uncomfortable if you ask me. I don't think it went down like she was hoping it would. I am beginning to see Danielle as an emotional bully. Those girls in Jr. High days, that latch on to the new comer and bully them into thinking they need to be in her "group". Yikes, Danielle seems to be a little off.

Costa, I kind of get that impression too - but I find her "confessionals" painful to watch... she seems so stiff...I can almost imagine a producer helping her - and retake after retake...

but I did LOL at the height of her high heels - and ITA Shelb, I also didnt get an epidural, I was too afraid of the effect on my baby (I had a few miscarriages, so I was ultra conservative!) - and my baby was 10# 8 ounces, no drugs! Yes, THAT's crazy!! LOL

I don't know what to make of that Frogi. The man was smirking as if mugging for the cameras himself, when Danielle basically told him that she and the Manzos had bad blood. I'm sure he bit off more than he could chew with her, but seriously, Danielle looked like a jackass from minute one of her meeting with him. What part of her actions is a surprise to him?

I just read the article in Frogi's link. I'm going to give Stilianessis the benefit of the doubt... I don't think he realized the extent of Danielle's animosity towards the Manzos, nor did he realize what she's capable of. There's a difference between bad blood (and assuming you'll put aside your beef for a benefit) and the way Danielle acted at the benefit

I'm surprised she showed up with 25 people. Didn't she know she had a table for 10? Unless, and I sorta think this has more to do with it, she wanted to bring too many people so she could raise a fuss about things. I'm not surprised, however, to find that she didn't raise any real money. She claimed to have people who had money, but it doesn't appear she even tried to get donations. I mean, didn't Kim "G" even donate anything? Other than the Bentley in which they arrived?

No matter how I try to dissect last night's show, it was stupid and phony. But I do enjoy watching Teresa and Dina. Teresa is a real trip and it's fun to watch someone who is so hands-on with her children and loves them so completely!

I totally agree, Hukd! I really enjoy watching those two. And I do enjoy watching Caroline's family interacting when they are just themselves.

Gosh, Danny seems like such a nice guy. He's just misunderstood.

Maybe he's just acting.

At least he's making lemons into lemonade!

All of that happened several years ago, Prisoner.

That said, the guy was obviously still on parole. And maybe learned something since he did walk away saying he only had a few more days.

Yes, I know that all happened several years ago; I did see the dates in the youtubes. I thought perhaps people would like to know exactly what he was on parole for, and why he might get hooked up with this mess.

He got hooked up with this mess for the same reason Danielle is still on the show: self promotion. Period. These people (these two) are fame hogs.

Ok, they really need to get Danielle off this show. All it's become is the Danielle drama. And all they show are either Danielle, her thug friends, the one upstanding friend she has who I can't fathom why she a)is friends w/her, or b) why she wants to be on this show, or the other HW talking about Danielle.

YAWN!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sick of it. Clearly they think if it's not heavy duty drama we aren't interested. It's about to make me tune out ironically.

BTW, much as I can't stand her, how did Teresa look like she did when coming home from the hospital after giving birth?? I mean seriously! BTW am I the only one not enjoying watching her spoil those kids, dress them like dolls and creating brats who won't have any clue how to behave naturally, kindly or with manners later in life. And God forbid they ever hit financial hard times, they won't have any coping skills.

I just posted about how great Bret Micheal's kids are and how impressed I was with them. It hit me while typing it that these kids are the polar opposites. Props to Bret and Kristie...Teresa should take parenting notes (but she enjoys raising her "diva's"..BLECH!).

WOW just looked at Prisoner's interesting YouTube links. Not sure what was more newsworthy. Finding out Danny is an actor/writer/producer OR when I decided to Google him finding out his Mob Boss Grandfather was the prime suspect for killing Jimmy Hoffa!!!

I agree with you Lurk. I think Teresa is ruining those girls. Her oldest daughter is spoiled brat and is showing signs of being a diva.

Oh by the way, I totally think that Kim G was very disrespectful to her son's best friend. She seemed to relish the discomfort that was visited upon Christopher.
