Somehow I have faith she’ll manage to keep the world abreast of her doings.
I thought this was just a rumor?
Actually, it really was beer. Tareq just served it in wine glasses, which is kind of gross.
Michaele was wearing jodhpurs because her husband’s a rider and she’s got to keep up appearances and all that. The others were just told to show up in jeans so they were annoyed that she outdressed them.
Glad someone started a Housewives thread. I thought about doing so but wasn’t sure how many of the responses would be, “Um. I don’t watch reality TV” “Oh, I don’t even watch TV at all,” “Well, I don’t watch anything–I try to keep my eyes shut as often as I can.”
Nothing is as much of a trainwreck as Jersey, but these women are bringing the crazy.
Uh oh, I think [del]Skeletor[/del] Michaele’s pulling ahead of Cat in the Most Unlikeable race!
The whole, “Let’s talk about race, baby” vibe of DC is hilarious. Though to be honest, most of the SDMB race conversations make the DC housewives look positively enlightened.
MAN, Cat is a bitch. But the Salahis are the world’s biggest poseurs. What a fucking trainwreck.
So did the Salahis really just slip in the side door? And did they get into any trouble for the Congressional Black Caucus sneak in? Though they didn’t really get into any trouble for the State Dinner, despite the whole hearing, so I guess that’s not too surprising. These people are grade A losers.
Since they are such desperate social climbers, it’s simultaneously understandable why they’d pimp themselves on TV and. . . perplexing. I mean, are they so delusional that they don’t see how pathetic their existence is? How it’s all an illusion? How they are completely outing themselves as being wannabes?
I’m actually curious about why Ted Gibson is hanging out with these people and sneaking in. He clearly wants to build up his own brand but associating with the Salahis isn’t going to help him.
Yeah and unlike some of the other Housewives shows, these chicks don’t really have nice hair. If you’ve got a hairdresser as a BFF, I’d expect you to looking a little better than these girls are.
BTW, who else is already gleeful about the reunion show for New Jersey? This looks amazing.
Mary’s curled/waved things look so high school prom to me, in particular.
Speaking of her, anyone know why in the previews she was crying about her daughter being implicated in…something?
ETA: Yes. I was ashamed to admit it, but I’m very psyched for it.
I’m not ashamed. I’m fucking stoked. I vote we have a real time Doper thread on the reunion.
No, but I am super curious! Good job, editors.
Diosa, does it air simultaneously in all time zones?
I’m stoked too. But I’ve been holding off on admitting it for so long. I’ve been wanting to make threads about the Housewives all summer but I figured the minute I did, it would get inundated with messages like, “I don’t even know who these people are,” “I don’t watch reality TV,” “Oh, I don’t even watch TV,” “I don’t watch anything, I’m having someone read this thread to me right now…” and so on.
What is up with Mary’s face, anybody? It looks so… overinjected all over, or something.
I’ve discovered Michaele’s secret to success- just say “I love you!” to everyone when you greet them, over and over. It’s a psychological thing, I guess…
Stoked to watch the RHONJ reunion. I see where Theresa “Twohead” Guidice claims that she can control herself, but after the table-flipping, the chasing of Danielle through the country club, and the shoving of the reunion host, I’m thinking this chick needs some anger management. Why, at the end of the last show, after Danielle and Caroline’s meeting, did they both go home claiming it was settled between them and over, when nothing seemed to be settled at that meeting- just more name-calling and accusations?
I’m 100% sure that’ll happen eventually, Freudian Slit– but I don’t, as they say, GAF. 
It doesn’t air in all time zones BUT Bravo does post it online in full the next day, so we could do it that way. Or if the people ahead in time zones have DVR, we could do a lil West Coast life sync. Dorky, but I do not even care.
Bravo also airs the reruns several times that night so maybe if someone’s up late we can do it that way…
I’m a houseguest and I don’t know how to use the DVR, or I’d do it. I DEFINITELY have moments when I’m watching when I want to post my immediate impressions. Liveblogging would be hilarious.
