Danielle is just jealous. Danielle is basically squatting in her house waiting for Ex number two to give her money so she can still afford to live in it. Danielle would put out with any man if it allowed her to live in Teresa's home.Quote:

I don't think Jacqueline would have gotten involved had Dina not involved her. Dina pointed at Jacqueline and said something like 'Jacqueline tell her what you saw' that was the point that J spoke up.Quote:

Even after J came to her rescue she seemed less than pleased by everything and one including Danielle.
I think the whole thing could have handled it differently. Danielle went on the attack from the get go. She was all about everyone coming to her and talking to her about it but didn't feel the need to go to Dina and discuss this whole situation with her? Or even Teresa? She said Caroline is a book of contradictions well so is she.
Hands down, this has been my favorite of all the "Housewives" shows. Even my 18 year old daughter got into this one. We were doing a countdown to the fight episode! Of course, anyone who agrees to go on one of these shows is opening themselves up for criticism so I question them even getting involved in something like this. Even the best person is going to look weird or bad in some ways when filmed for months and then asked to talk about themselves and others. After all that has happened I still like the "family" women and can't stand Danielle. She's such an obvious villain that I wonder if BRAVO picked her from central casting. Everything about her screams EVIL! Her overly, botoxed face, the smug look, her stance and the self absorption! The other women could go out and kick dogs and I would still like them better than her! As far as the others go I like them all. I think that Teresa is cute. Maybe not the brightest penny in the role but so what. She seems to really be enjoying her life and there is nothing wrong with that. Her kids are adorable (and I'm not a huge kid lover). She's got a great figure, she's pretty, the house of (her) dreams and (I don't care what others have said) seems happy with her husband. The others all seem pretty happy with their lives too.I like that their lives seem "real". I don't feel like they went out and rented homes just for this show like Slade or the one woman from Atlanta. The people who work have "real" jobs that have gotten them to where they are. Seems like the other shows have always had a few who "just started a clothing (or jewelry) line or something like that. No one has mentioned a book (of course it could still happen). Danielle aside, none of them are as obnoxious as Vickie or catty as Tamara. None are as pretentious as the "rich" Atlanta women (who won't have servants and bowling alleys in a few years when the husbands sports careers have ended). I also love that (aside from Danielle) they all seem to have a sense of humor about themselves. Danielle "works" so well with this group because she is a miserable person with (apparently) no "support" behind her (no husband, boyfriend, extended family or career) and she is jealous of them all. I LOVE IT!
I do think though that when they found "the book" (what prompted them to find it - who told them about it? Bernie Kerick? I mean she was under a different name back then. Very odd.) they could have confronted her rather than instantly assuming it was all true and gosgosgossiping it all around town. In fact, when they investigated they found that most of it was not true.Quote:

And it was Christopher who was flung across the room. Christopher who's been told he's not good looking. I think he is. :biglove
Except that when she first said it, Caroline called her the liar. Twice.Quote:

That was a wingding of a show.
What I took from it was that there was some appreciation on the part of the Laurita sisters that maybe they should have come to Danielle first to ask about 'the book.' No appreciation of her bringing it up but at least, contrary to what I thought, she did let them digest their profiteroles and cannoli before firing her opening salvo.
But for me the stars of the show were the men; calm, collected, protective and peacemaking.
I thought she was talking about Dina when she said that, before Dina married into money.Quote:

The last supper was just a horrible trainwreck that I couldn't take my eyes off of. These woman have no shame, all the sex talk and the book blowout in front of the kids.
Is The Last Supper really worth watching?
YES YES YES YES YES YES
If only for Albie and Christopher's comments. And to see the flipping from five different angles. And to see them all drinking and chatting together afterwards (except D. Rex who overacted with her remarkably unflapped daughter and then spat nails at everyone, repeating her bleating over and over again, like a little, ignored, girl).
