The Claws are Out

Tomorrow on Bravo will be the reunion of all reunions in the channels history. With the Real Housewives of New Jersey wraps up its first season, the women will come face to face to discuss what took place. Moderator of all Bravo's reunions, Andy Cohen, will have a front seat to what appears to be an interesting two part episode.

In their first season, the New Jersey Housewives have gained a strong following in the 18-49 age range. They are currently the highest ranging of the Housewives franchise, so that means we will be seeing more of these ladies next year. The finale of the show which so graciously featured housewife Teresa Giudice flipping a table was viewed by more than 4.6 million people.

I know that when I originally wrote about the show, I was not really interested in watching these ladies. After I saw all the cat fights and drama this show had, I was drawn to watch it. For those of you who haven't seen it, I would recommend it if not to just watch the drama of the season finale.

The show follows the lives of five affluent women and their families in New Jersey. The difference between the other franchise shows and New Jersey is that some of these women are also family. The shows features sisters Caroline Manzo and Dina Manzo, who's husbands are brothers. Also their brother's wife, their sister-in-law Jacqueline Laurita is on the show. The cast also features Teresa Giudice and Danielle Staub.

Together these women balance everyday life and the day to day drama of dealing with one another. Staub's life was under the microscope this season as the women discovered that she has a secret past. The information on her life cause a rift between the women as many of them started to distance themselves from her. This then cause Staub's to blame Dina Manzo for bringing the book into the public, which later caused Giudice to flip the table.

The two part reunion special will be airing this Tuesday and Thursday. As the women meet to discuss the season, the previews show that this reunion will have a lot of yelling and tears in store. Cohen will have his work cut out for him as he talks to them about the rivalry between Manzo and Staub, Staub's interesting past, and that happened in between.

Sine this will be the Real Housewives franchise is taking a break, Bravo will be airing it's new series NYC Prep, which I wrote about in a previous post. After the hiatus viewers can enjoy going back to Atlanta for the second season of Real Housewives of Atlanta. Right now the Real Housewives of Orange County are filming their new season, which most likely will air next year.

Bravo is also working on developing the Real Housewives of Washington D.C., which they sent out a casting call for and is still in the works. However, I think if they did a Real Housewives of Houston or Miami it would be more interesting.

Either way watch the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion, if only to watch the table flipping over and over again.
