I'm going to be honest. Like many other trash tv loving Americans, I didn't watch Real Housewives of New Jersey until I saw a promo for a full blown table flip in the first season finale. Craziest dinner party moment of RH history? Yes. So I watched semi-religiously for Season 2. I set my DVR for this week's Season 3 premiere after hearing out effing crazy it was going to be.
Wow. The 2 new housewives they added to the mix stir up drama that makes Danielle look like a middle school girl. Teresa's brother is SO over the top. I've never seen a reality star play it up for the cameras this much.
The episode mostly revolved around Teresa's nephew's christening and the fights that broke out. Can you imagine? Even though I'm Jewish, I've been to a few Italian family baptisms, but no one ever invited SO many people or went SO all out. Here are my two favorite moments:
1) The blurry face guy getting up on a table to scream that it's a effing kids christening. "If you don't like it, get out!" Wow. Not surprised his face was blurred, would anyone want people to know it was them?
2) When Joe (Teresa's brother) flipped his crap in the lobby and started yelling at his sickly father in English and Italian. It sounded like a mix between a scene from the Godfather, a cat fight from Bad Girls Club and a Maury paternity test show all wrapped into one. And if you know anything about me, you know I love all 3 of those things separately.
So, go watch it on Hulu or on a Bravo marathon. It won't disappoint.
