So, I watched the Real Housewives of New Jersey Reunion special last night, actually the second part of it, I watched the first half last Thursday.  It never ceases to amaze me how people can make an ass out of themselves on national television.  Now I am definately a "Teresa Fan," LOVE HER, I share her passionate views on family and her "don't cross that line," attitude. Even though it seemed as though she started that outburst with Danielle by commenting on her alleged promiscuity, I couldn't help but cheer Teresa on as she became closer than you should ever, EVER, want to get to Danielle's face.  Danielle looked like a scared kindergartener getting ready for her first fight.  Teresa threw the poor host, Andy Cohen, off her as he tried to calm her down and save Danielle from her impending ass beating! After Teresa calmed down, which took a few minutes, it was just more of the mindless he said she said crap you find with Reality TV.  Noone really knows what the truth is or why these women have held onto their hate for one person for soooo long, my guess is this all runs deeper than will ever be aired to truly understand it.  At the very end of the reunion Jacquelyn decides to turn the page and just let by gones be by gones as she tells Danielle she wants to move on and have no more ill will towards her, all of this said through teary eyes.  This is after she accused Danielle of still being a hooker, sleeping with married men, breaking up her friend Danny's marriage, and being a crackhead. It's all so weird to me, I just could never do it, go on TV and have the world judge me based on my childish outbursts and need to cling onto an obviously unhealthy past, these women have good lives it seems, and have been blessed enough to have their fabulous homes, families, and money in the bank (except for Teresa but don't worry homegirl, I'm rooting for you!). But the sad fact is they obviously have way too much time of their hands to be bickering and fighting and showing their behinds to the world.  The only one of them with any real integrity (once again excluding my girl Teresa), is Caroline.  How she got roped into taping this show I will never understand.  So I guess I'll wait for next season and see how they're going to replace the "Let's all hate Danielle and bitch about her everyday of our lives," storyline.  I am hoping it will be something good, but I'm not holding my breath for fear of turning blue and passing out!
