I have watched them all ....when there is nothing else on! I live in NJ.... so I was looking forward to this series but man...they don't look or act like the people I know. They don't even talk like anyone I know. This NJ show seems the most disjointed. I'm not getting the Danielle connection to any of the other woman. But then again I only watch it for a few minutes it's just not holding me.

NJ Danielle scares the living daylights out of me. So, where is this Franklin Lakes? Is it real or is it like Wysteria Lane?
OC These women are my age and we couldn't be more different. Who lives like this? Seriously? The only one I even remotely like is the new one and I can't even remember her name now. Lynn, maybe. And that Tammy...she's meaner than a mad hornet. She's so mean to Gretchen it's pathetic. Tonight's lost footage show scenes look JUICY!!
NY LOVE Jill Zarin!! She's so funny. Ramona is certifiable. That woman needs to go away to a nice happy place for a while. Kelly...I never understand a word out of her mouth because she's always talking in circles. Bethany...drives me insane. She might be THE most self absorbed person I've even seen. Alex...jury is still out. Simon...cracks me up...and creepy at the same time.
Atlanta Never got hooked by this one. I did like NeNe though. She's a character.
Looking forward to the finale of NJ next week. I wanna know what sets Theresa off like that. I'm guessing it's Danielle.

NY
I love Jill too.
Leann loves being a countess but she fascinates me somehow. Maybe it's her great posture, heh.
Alex and Simon are just too weird. But hey if it works for them....
Ramona is a nutjob.
Kelly is just in her own world I guess. Doesn't she remember her talks with Bethany? She out and out lies.
I actually like Bethany's candor but she goes OTT sometimes. She's a single woman, high achiever, who would rather be a wife and mother.
They're my favorite cast.

i just looked up franklin lakes, nj and it's wayyyy up in north jersey. it's farther north than new york city, so i don't know if it's just like that up north but we certainly don't have anyone like that here in south jersey.
i've never seen the atlanta one. i've watched oc, but never really got hooked on it. love new york! jill and her mother make me laugh so hard. can't stand ramona.

Sunshine- Franklin Lakes is located in Bergen County not too far from NYC. It ranks #22 on CNN 25 Top earning towns. Here is what the article said about it.
22. Franklin Lakes, N.J. Population: 10,800 Median household income: $155,439 Median home price: $1,337,877 Amount spent on vacations/yr: $10,639
Many of New York's top professional athletes pick this Bergen County suburb as the place to hang their caps and helmets when they're not on the field of play. Mets manager Willie Randolph and others in uniform enjoy the conservative town's rural character and easy access to all the metropolitan area has to offer. Say hello to Kelly Ripa as well if you see her walking the town's well-manicured streets or shopping at the well-known Urban Farms Shopping Center.

OTR, thank you for looking that up. ;D It looks beautiful from the aerial shots each week. And I grew up in a town of about 10,000 so I can relate to the size of it. Everyone knows everything about everyone. ;D

Little mild mannered, frou frou Teresa. HOLY MOLY!! I can't believe Danielle had the gaul to bring that book to the dinner party. She's a wackadoo. So, drugs/arrested/stripper/name change. I heard her on an interview saying the producers of the show didn't know about her past when they hired her. I bet they're loving that now!! ;D I #heart_smiley# Caroline.

Caroline is quite the facilitator...and she was doing pretty well, then the s...t hit the fan! Crazy, manipulitive Danielle... I took this crazy "Which nj housewife are you" test on fb and I came out to be Caroline. Thank God for that...Ha Ha!

Did you notice the updates at the end of the show, Linda?
Jacqueline and Teresa are both preggers!!
I was a little shocked that Jacqueline stood up for Danielle.

The people I know from Franklin Lakes have class. My x mentor and his wife and family...wealthy, yet value centered and down to earth. I've had dinner and hung out at their home and it's lovely, yet not pretentious in any way. Oh well, it takes all kinds.
Love the Housewives of NY and OC. Never watched the Atlanta Housewives.
Ok so we're getting to the dinner party again...LOL

Me too, as Jacq. seemed more tied to the family. Very surprising, yet I think Danielle manipulated her into that stand. So now we're comparing and admiring...boobies! Crazy!

So is Carolyn really covering up for her sister? I've only seen three episodes and I don't know too much about their relationship.

They were both there. Caroline brought the book and started telling people, but Dina was there. I do think Caroline was protecting her younger sister to some degree. Can you blame her? Danielle scares the living daylights out of me. Her daughters are georgous. I feel sorry for them. Their mother is a nutbag.

I've never watched a second of any of these shows but I have to admit that your commentary is pretty amusing

They're disgusting. ;D I've never seen so much over the top, bling clad, boobish, materialistic, spoiled rotten, gaudy, wait...fake boobish women in my life. I wanna know if you ever see any of them around town. ;D
