Real Housewives of New Jersey Recap: Didn’t “Kim G” Get the Memo That Money Can’t Buy You Class…My Friend?
Update: My Exclusive Interview With Kim G from the Real Housewives of New Jersey!
Here’s what went down, last night, on Real Housewives of New Jersey:
- Teresa and Barney Rubble are heading home to their legit castle with the new baby. On the way home “Tre” tries to convince Barney that he needs to get a vasectomy and he wants no part of it. He says, “I ain’t gettin’ snipped.” I agree that he shouldn’t get snipped. I would, however, like to witness a rabid donkey kick him in the balls repeatedly while Teresa tries to put a flowered hat on him. Just me? Didn’t think so.
- Kim G. Kim G, Kim G, Kim G. What is she? How rich is she? Who is she? Is she the town “rich lady” with slicked back hair or is she just the crazy old Italian lady who sits on her front stairs and yells at the kids who ride by on their bikes whilst she sips on her Limoncello? Danielle, who’s wearing a half fur vest, is thanking Kim G for escorting her to the Brownstone charity event. This event is to help raise money for a sick baby, but Danielle is treating this like she’s planning to attend a sitdown dinner with Osama Bin Laden.
- Meanwhile Dina heads over to Teresa’s compound to bring a gift for the baby and talk about Danielle being a sociopath. Two things raise a red flag for me in this scene. Well, three things. (1) Teresa’s daughter is trying to cut the TV with scissors and no one is doing anything. (2) Dina is saying that Danielle is still evil and a sociopath, but when did she change her tune so drastically? The past few episodes she wouldn’t say a mean thing about her on camera and all of a sudden she’s calling her evil and crazy. I mean, both are true, but why the change of heart and what are we missing? Perhaps Danielle tried to smother Dina with her bare breasts? (3) Ho-Bag Palooza. Teresa calls Danielle a “ho-bag.” In the Housewives of NYC, Kelly called Bethenny a “ho-bag.” Why are people trying to bring this term back into mainstream America?
- Blah. Why are we watching a dinner with the Manzo kids and Ashley and her Blink 182 boyfriend? All pointless. I couldn’t care less what was going on during this dinner, unless Ashley started eating her dinner out of her Meg Griffin hat (thanks Jen). Next.
- Jacqueline heads over to meet the mother of Ashley’s boyfriend. What I assume will be a boring meeting really takes a sharp left turn when they start pouring the wine. This just supports my theory that booze makes everything better. Everything. I once took an Accounting mid-term after having 4 glasses of wine out of a keg cup. I mean, I failed the mid-term like nobodies business but let me tell you that it was the most fun mid-term I’ve ever taken. Anyway, the wine is free flowing and the women are cackling like hens in the hen house (where else do hens live?) and feeding each other grapes. As much as I want to make Jacqueline “horse face” jokes I’m actually starting to like her….like 2%. Right now I like her as much as the old lady that sells roses outside of a bar at 2 in the morning.
- It’s time for Gia’s birthday! Let the horror show begin! About 500 9 year old girls enter the castle and everyone is running and screaming when the limo shows up to pick them up and take them all for makeovers. If this doesn’t make Joe want to get a snip, nothing will. He should pull down his pants, take out Mr Winky, and then slam it the limo door until it, literally, falls off. Either way, he should do it.
- The limo looks like a complete nightmare. It’s painted hot pink and looks like it has Barbie’s painted all over it. It basically looks like Anna Nicole Smith’s coffin on wheels. Youlikemybody? Youwantsomemoney? TrimSpa baby (wink).
- It’s “present time” and Gia gets what every 9 year girl wants. A dirt bike. No really, that’s the surprise gift. I assumed they were going to purchase Rhode Island for Gia, but they just went with a dirt bike. Gia immediately jumps on the 4 wheel death machine, without a helmet, and Teresa starts yelling. I assumed it was because she was riding without a helmet but, no, she’s yelling because she wants her 5 year old daughter to ride the Death Machine 3000 too, and, without a helmet. And, not for nothing, but have you ever seen the 5 year old daughter in other episodes? She can’t even walk in a straight line, no offense, but they assume she can balance on the bike going 25 mph….without a helemt, might I add again. Teresa keeps yelling to watch out for the “water puddles.” Good thinking, Tre! Now is it ok for her to not watch out for the “dirt puddles” or the “ground puddles?”
- Kim G (not to be confused with Kim D) and Danny head over to Danielle’s house to get ready for the big event at the Brownstone. You can tell Kim G is trying her damnedest to become a new member of the cast. Danny, on the other hand, looks like he’s about 6 days away from going on a raping and killing spree. The good news is that he got rid of his 1980’s feathered hair and cut it down to a proper mullet. Kim G, on the other hand, looks like she either just discovered the body of Jimmy Hoffa or Danielle hired a sniper to shoot her in the forehead with Botox as she walked into the house. Either way, it’s a fright.
- The More You Know alert: We randomly learn that Caroline Manzo shaves her face in the shower every morning. From Chuckie to Forehead, I believe, is the proper technique.
- It’s time for the event at the Brownstone. I feel like I need either a translator or a rocket scientist to help me understand exactly what is going on here. First off, Danielle is being escorted into the Brownstone with Kim G, Danny (who got dressed up by wearing a black t-shirt), and then the head of the Hells Angels. Huh? Is Danielle basically just producing this show herself now?
- Chris tells Kim G that she’s in for a big surprise when she gets inside (because she is overdressed and everyone else is basically wearing wife-beaters and army shorts) and Kim G and Danielle take this statement like they’re about to shot, Scarface style, as soon as they walk through the doors. Relax there crazy-trains because I think the Botox is starting to leak into your frontal lobe.
- More confusion continues when Danielle is shocked that there isn’t a table ready for the 20 people that she brought with her. Danny is losing his sh*t over this and, I’m not kidding, I’m not able to follow exactly what is going on. Am I missing something? All I know is that I’m pretty sure the Hells Angels are going to ride their motocycles through the Brownstone like party scene from “Weird Science.”
- In the end Kim G leaves a check with the family of the sick baby and then she, Danielle, Danny, and the Hells Angels leave the Brownstone event. Danny thinks that the Manzo’s are punks and that they’re in for a surprise. At this point I think they’re just quoting lines from Mafia-related movies. This makes sense as Danielle typically says quotes from “Pretty Women” (big mistake….huge.) They basically just all stand in front of the Brownstone, awkwardly, saying that some crazy sh*t is about to go down….but then they just kind of hop into their car and leave. Let down.
I did not drink during this crapisode and still had a hard time following it. When does Danielle get her hair pulled out of her head? Why must we keep waiting. I mean, Snooki got punched mid season, but we’re going to have to wait ’til the end for this aren’t we?
Craptastic Thoughts from IBBB Readers!

Kalyn Said,
someone should seriously slip Danielle some pysch meds, whether through her plumbing or sneak it into the botox injections she gets weekly, she NEEDS some psychological help.
-
Jinxy Said,
I am happy to read nobody seems to understand what went on in that crazy episode. Well they are all crazy but you know…
I almost died when T-bag let the kid drive off with no instructions or safety gear and then puts a younger child on the back! Wha??? Neither child has a chance to survive her mothering. RIP Rigatoni and Asti Spumanti.
Danielle’s “dates”? Were they going to fork people at an event for a child with HEART CANCER?? A child’s family desperate financial need to throw a fundraiser and you bring a Hell’s Angel, who we all know only give Toys for Tots. Did Danielle even donate a dime to this family as she ruined the event for a child, WHO IS DYING!!?? There are no psych meds that can help Danielle.
I used to feel pity for her, now I believe she’s the gang’s bang bitch. I pity her daughters and hope they are able to escape. Why isn’t their father terminating Danielle’s parental rights?

Alyson Said,
speaking of the ’second child’ of teresa. does NO ONE else notice she looks nothing like any of the other children…i mean seriously she has a normal size forehead and eyes, and has blonde hair??
-
perezhiltonisso2007 Said,
Thank you Alyson, I think the same thing every time they show her!! The other three daughters are Theresa’s clone but she looks nothing like any of them.
-
Karen Said,
This is my favorite recap of yours now. Lovin it.
-
Alyson Said,
that second daughter is the milkman’s kid…
-
Joanne Said,
Sweet & Sassy, my A$$!!! Teresa’s kids are the devils incarnate! She is raising monsters. Teresa needs to stop blowing smoke up her kids asses every two seconds! A real Italian mother wouldn’t take any crap from a little kid……hmmmm wonder if she owns a wooden spoon? Danielle is just a psycho bitch and I guess her biggest claim to fame is boinking Don Johnson and Prince (ehhh I wouldn’t go around bragging Danielle). Jacqueline is a pig from Vegas who got knocked up when she was 16. Remember lady, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Just waiting for the episode when her daughter tells her she’s pregnant (SHOCK)!!!!! I can go on and on…….but just want whoever writes these recaps to know that I look forward to reading them after each episode…they make me laugh till I cry!

Anonymous Said,
i dont understand kim g’s role. if she knew her son was best friends with chris then why would you go about supporting danielle.

Daynomite Said,
Is it just me, or are Teresa and Joe the adult versions of Sammi and Ronnie?

Ralphie G. Said,
Grandnephew of the famous mobster known as Tony Pro, Danny Provenzano is the co-writer, director, and star of the independent crime drama This Thing of Ours (the title is a literal translation of the crime organization La Cosa Nostra). This Thing of Ours also stars Vincent Pastore (The Sopranos), James Caan (The Godfather), and Pat Cooper (Analyze This). Incidentally, Provenzano was arresting in 1999 under a 44-count felony indictment that included charges of racketeering, kidnapping, and money laundering. He eventually pleaded guilty to racketeering and began to serve a ten-year prison sentence in August 2003, just weeks after his film was released.

quin browne Said,
i think i love you.
i was raised with sicilians… i assure you, my grandmother would have taken us on a trip on the smackdown highway if we’d have pulled that crap.
oh! and maybe tre can take some shaving tips… is she part simian?
-
jaymesue Said,
Ah…funniest thing I have read in weeks…slow down there crazy-trains….hahaha
-
donna Said,
i usually am not a mean spirited person, but did the same plastic surgeon that screwed up daniell’s “bubbie” job twice also do the plastic surgery on her face. and if she does feel the need for being protected why does she fall back on a two bit booky, his henchman and a has been hell’s angel. to want respect you must first command respect by acting respectfully. who hopes to ride their 15 year old’s daughter coattails to fame? very shameful for a mother to do such a thing. where is the father of daniell’s children? does he not have a clue of what type of people his ex is bringing into the home of where his children reside? i really feel sorry for her kids. give her the house paid in full, calculate the children’s child support care for the age of until 21 for both daughters, cut her a check and take your kids now before its too late. by the way danielle , the Manzo’s are very respectful people, they are legitimate business people, but i would still be careful of who’s toes i stepped on lest you (the wanna be mafia queen) finds herself sleeping with the fishes. hahaha- no disrespect manzo family- just jokin’

AK GOLD Said,
These women are all a bunch of whackasses but I have to say Teresa takes the cake. Clearly her children are spawns of the devil, I am afraid for the future. The woman is losing her home yet she’s spending thousands of dollars on a housewarming party. I hope the cameras are rolling when juicy Joe moves his over indulged girls into their craptastic new home. Skeeve on that Teresa.
tee hee -
lidia Said,
Jacqueline is a drunk…remember when she went to Derek’s mom house? This woman is a fat,unstable mother to Ashley and a drunk.Teresa is not smart at all…she cannot speak…Danielle is a smart…street wise lady.Well she was in jail …she knows about suffering.Caroline is Marlon Brando….the godfather….she’s not religious at all….she hate Danielle to death.Shame on you Carolina.Dina is a fake…dumb woman that she thinks that she’s all that….you are NOT.Bravo you are making a mistake by let Danielle go….she’s is the show.God bless you Danielle….keep praying….and stay out of troubles…..your kids are well mannered and good looking 2.Please keep going to church…God will always be on your side.

anne Said,
I think this might be my favorite synopsis…you are the absolute best! I’m glad you mentioned the whole dirt bike/no helmets thing….these people are morons. While there’s no doubt both Betty and Barney love their spoiled brats, they have absolutely no clue on how to raise responsible, healthy children.
Danielle has a narsasistic criminal personality. It scares the hell out of me that she exposes her girls to the likes of tweedledee and tweedledumber (can tweedledumber even speak in complete sentences? The man just sits there, mumbles and nods) – god knows what else she drags into her house. Bravo needs to kick Danielle and her gang to the curb…but keep the girls. That way we can keep tabs on them all – from the sidelines – and at least make sure those girls aren’t dragged further into hell by their “mother”.
