So are there arrests made from a fight in the first episode or will this be the dangling carrot ala Theresa flipping the table?

This is like Bravo's birthday present to me. I'm beyond excited for this trainwreck.

I fell asleep halfway through, so I'm re-watching it now. Theresa's kids are not very cute and they are such little divas. Danielle is hideous.

I fell asleep too. I think it was the first part that featured Caroline. I think she talks too much. Yes, Danielle is gross. I couldn't believe she went to a priest about her problems. It would be one thing if she didn't sound like "These women are picking on me, blah, blah, blah."

And it was Dina who had her cat shaved to look hideous, right? Poor cat.

A bit of a letdown but I was happy for Jaclyn having a smooth pregnancy and her son looks adorable.

I hate Theresa's kids and normally the kid aspects on these shows do not bother me at all. That whole family drives me bonkers.

Danielle's meeting with the priest/minister was INSANE. She is all vengeful and needy. Girl, you should probably see a psychologist and not talk about getting all Old Testament on these women on camera with a man of God, who seemed utterly baffled by what she was saying. I feel sorry for Danielle's daughters.

Dina's cats- YIKES. Then there are those names. Poor kitties.

How many times did Danielle say she didn't care that she wasn't invited to Caroline's party. Obviously she did care.

So am I the only one who's kinda on Danielle's side? My daughter likes her too. I like how direct she is and I like how she sticks up for the gay community. She's hard on the eyes but I like how close she is with her daughters and I think her daughters are naturally pretty. What was with the Jewish remark that Gia said about how she didn't want to marry a Jewish man and then when she started to explain why, Teresa quickly shut her up. Kids usually learn these things from their parents. Anyway, their middle daughter is pretty. I wanted to see what Dina's daughter looks like this year. Jacqueline's baby is adorable! Personally, I'm sick of hearing Teresa bash Danielle in every conversation- what's the point?

Entertainment! I do like how Danielle sticks up for the gay community yes. But she is just so stupid I can't stand it. What does she even do for a living? Does she have a job?

[strummergirl]

I only remember just the one incident during the dancing lessons when she called out Joe for his uptight homophobia. Unless there were other incidents she defended the gay community, I would not make her the grand marshal for pride parade just yet. That being said it made Joe ugly inside and out as well as make Theresa look like an enabler of those type of comments.

I really like nobody with possible exception to Caroline's sons (hot) and sympathize with Jaclyn though I agreed with Caroline's criticisms last season that she practically let her older daughter get away with murder.

Last season Danielle tried to earn a lot of sympathy about her ex not paying to support her children and that she could lose her home, yet she has no job. I am sure that she gets a nice chunk of change from the show but consider the financial straits the OC girls have gotten themselves into, that may not be enough. Especially in that area. I think Danielle's daughter is trying to become a model from what the previews showed. I really hope Danielle is not pushing her just for money purposes.

And here is Mr. Richard Lawson's recap:

supportivemom, Gia said she didn't want to marry a Jewish man because her kids (well, the boys) would have to have "curlies" (meaning the little curls Hasidic Jews wear).

Thanks theatreguy for clarifying. I couldn't understand what she said. I thought it must have been bad because they shut her up so quickly. That wasn't that bad! As far as not having jobs- seems like a lot of the housewives on all the shows combined don't have jobs. Personally- it always bothers me when they put women on the show who are not even married- since it's called housewives! It also bothers me that so many of them are already rich and don't need the Bravo bucks- that's just my opinion! Most of the kids on all these wives shows are complete losers too! I wonder what the DC and Beverly Hills wives will be like because I know I will get sucked into them too!

SM, I agree about the not being married = not being a houseWIFE. But Danielle just annoys me because she's NOT married and has no job. I realize Kim and several others don't have jobs either and that also annoys me. I don't have a job either, but I'm a real housewife. I mean that IS my job.

How did you all feel about the owner of the store POSCHE kissing Danielle's butt and loving on her when she was in the store. She then went onto say "I dont know her. I sell her clothes. Its my job" when she was with the other women. I felt bad for Danielle in that moment because if people are going to lie to your face, how can you trust?

Caroline's daughter is a sloppy hot mess. Caroline looks great!
Theresa's family is annoying as all get out.

I actually kind of like Dina. She has her grudges, but she is pretty civil and low key.

Betty- I couldn't believe how 2-faced the store owner was! That was totally pathetic! I know they have Danielle on for the drama but she's in a no win situation. With 2-faced friends and the other women all being in the family- well she just can't win! The show is so staged though. Jacqueline's husband talking to her about Danielle? really? especially since his sisters hate her. Personally- I don't like seeing this one-sided hate- unless of course it's Kate Gosselin- that's a different story!- lol oh- and I guess if you think about it- they all have a job just by being on this show. They pay pretty well for just following you around!

The store owner is ridonkulous.

[Bettyboy72]

The store owner is a dried-up handbag! Overtan with a drunk-a@# boyfriend!!!!

Danielle looks even more like Jafar this season.

HAHAHA!

It's not that I hate Danielle, but I found her trip to the priest almost unwatchable.

I don't doubt she goes to church, and I won't sit here and critique whether or not she's a good Catholic. I just feel that if she stopped focusing so much on what happened last season she could move on and be a happier person. It's like, I know she can do it, but she would rather just go on and on...
