Holy Shit Gasmii! You guys know that I am not so good with the Mini’s. But, I had to talk about this craziness while it was still fresh. The first part of the Mob Wives Reunion showed me exactly why I love this show so much. These bitches (with the exception of CousinSuckUp) are 100 percent real. That was some of the realest shit I have ever seen on a reality show reunion.

You know how everyone on reality shows go out of their way to avoid mentioning how much the producers are involved in their storylines unless they are getting the villain edit? That shit does not happen with Mob Wives.

Last night, we learned so much stuff. Renee suffered a miscarriage and that was why she was hospitalized during the Junior shenanigans. She also explained why Junior wasn’t excited about the watch she got him for his birthday. He was wearing a wire in his regular watch.

Jennifer Graziano (the producer and Renee’s sister) purposely kept Drita and Karen from speaking to each other prior to Renee’s party so that they could talk at the party on camera. She said that she didn’t expect a fight and that she simply made a bad judgment call – to which I gave major side eye. We also found out that Drita was told by Jennifer not to say anything to Carla about how bad Renee’s surgery went.

So, that made for two HUGE drama’s that could have easily been avoided that the creator an executive producer of the show instigated. And the Mob Wives actually called her on it and she admitted it. How’s that for reality programming?

The best part of the reunion for me though was watching CousinSuckUp try her damnedest to gain some relevancy. Seriously, has there ever been a more thirsty bitch on a reality show? This idiot proudly embraced the name Lucifer/Lucifina, got Karen to yell out some craziness about Carla fucking Karen’s uncle, and then instigated a fight with Drita while hiding behind security. I still think she lifts right out of the show and would not be missed. But, I have to give her some props for trying to become a factor in the final inning.

There was also Big Ang (yay!) and all of her delightful glory. I truly cannot wait to watch her show.

Right now my head is spinning from all of the stuff that was said and all of the revelations and the near physical altercation between Drita and CousinSuckUp. So, I’m going to leave it there, regroup and give it all I got for the full recap. Check back in a couple of days because this shit was EPIC!

If there were ever a situation where in which I had to choose between cheese and chocolate, cheese would win hands down. I spend my days writing blog posts for the multi-housing industry and my nights harshly judging people who appear on reality shows. If there is the odd weekend in which I am not working, or feeling smugly satisfied about my lack of my own reality show, I will build a blog for my friends. Then, I will spend the rest of my weekend conning other friends, family members, and general acquaintances to donate their talents to help out. I am shameless in my love of free stuff, blue humor, and great or even terrible fiction. I tell my friends that I watch reality shows to feel better about myself. In actuality, I watch them because I am vastly entertained by the things people will do to be famous. When Flipit asked me to join the TVGasm family, I was honored. When he said that I would be paid in Cheetos and M&M's, I was totally in.

    I haven’t been keeping up with the season, but I watched the finale. The producer involvement came out during Love and Hip Hop as well. Maybe its a VH1 thing. I hate CSU with every ounce oif my heart. She tried making herself look like a bigger person by throwing ‘your a Mother’ comments around.

    Well, I like CSU in the sense that she’s that cartoonish villain that always gets her comeuppance at the end of every episode. Did anyone else catch how big her eyes got when Drita says in the clips for next week, ” We ARE fighting after the reunion, bitch!” LOL, hopefully someone has 9-1-1 on speed dial.

    Did they really think having Joy Behar hosting this reunion was a good idea? The brand of crazy she deals with daily on “The View” is not even equal to the unhinged psychosis that was unleashed on that stage last night. Bring America’s favorite drag queen, Wendy Williams, and really get it poppin’, as she has for the trashiest of all reality tv programs across our dials.

    Drita said on Twitter that production and security wouldn’t let them fight after the show. Which I am kind of glad about. As much as I would love to see CousinSuckUp catch a case for all of her bullshit, I don’t want Drita fighting anymore. I’m ready to see her use her words because I think she really is determined to do that. She just has too much of a temper and reacts before she has a chance to think it through. I think CousinSuckUp knows this and it’s why she was trying so hard to push Drita’s buttons. What she doesn’t realize is that the audience doesn’t care about her opinions on anything so she can go sit down somewhere with all that noise.

    All I could get out of this was that Drita was somehow, somewhere going to fuck UP Ramona’s world.

    Karler slept with someone’s uncle? renee had a miscarriage? Clutch the pearls.

    Ramona, Lucifina, Left’s granddaughter (whatever)…my eyes still haven’t recovered from all the rolling they were put through.

    “I’m a survivor bitches” hahahahahaha..I love you PlathAddict.

    I was so proud of Drita, she kept her cool to the very end. Lucifina kept pushing her buttons, acting like she was protecting Drita cause she’s a mother. Yeah right. Karen talks out of both sides of her mouth with Carler – I’m not going to talk about your family out of respect – You slept with my married uncle… nice Karen. What the hell is Dave doing there next week? He was on for about five minutes during the season.
    this reunion was too short, I can’t wait till next week!

    @sheesh, MWAH and in my best Big Ang Voice, “I love you too.”

    @featherhead, I know right! I was really impressed with her. and I loved the way CousinSuckUp’s eyes got really big when Drita said, “just let us fight.” “after the show, we’re fighting.” It was awesome!

    @Classy you won’t regret having Siri remind you. I agree with Derek that the choice of host was pretty lame. But, I was impressed that the ladies managed to hold their shit together for as long as they did. It made for excellent tension.

    @Moli, I’ve heard Renee and Carla slip into that accent before too. I think it’s a regional thing. But, in Karen’s case, I think she does it on purpose because she thinks is sounds tougher. She could easily be one of those people who slip into an accent when the people around her use it, but when she first got back from Arizona it definitely wasn’t very pronounced until she started laying on thick with the Drita trashing.

    Ohhhh Kayyyy. It’s clear watching this episode that Jennifer Graziano created a lot of the drama on this show. She’s the producer, so it doesn’t surprise me.
    Karen saying that Carla slept with her married “uncle” is BS. He is not her uncle, just as Lucifer is not her “cousin”. Carla said on allaboutthetruth.com yesterday that yes, she dated him, but he said he was separated and that Karen is one to talk because she was bangin’ MIKE TYSON while he was married! Ew.
    It was also clear that Ramona was working her damnest to stay on the show this epi. That whole crap about “you’re a mother, so am I ” was complete BS. She doesn’t give a crap about anyone but herself and we know this because she AGAIN swore on her children’s lives while she lied through her teeth! What kind of mother does that?!?! She is completely insane and it’s clear that her objective (and Karen’s) was to goad Drita into fighting. As much as I love Drita, the only way she can handle extreme stess is with her fists, and these bitches know this. I hope she continues her anger management therapy so she doesn’t have to resort to it anymore, though she does seem to verbally handle her own for the most part. I loved how she finally said “What does motherhood have to do with anything?” when CSU kept going on.
    I guess PlathAddict I should have waited for your full review, lol, but I just watched this again and had to vent. I just hate CSU with a passion and am soooo dissappointed in Karen after last weeks episode. I really thought she was cool with Drita again and was willing to move on. How many times does Drita have to aplologise for something she never did?

    This was good! I agree reunions normally suck because we don’t find out anything we didn’t already know, so they become a waste of an hour (or three if it’s the housewives, how do I watch three hours of something and no new knowledge is revealed?!!?!? Dammit Miss Andy you win again)

    CSU is so awful. The show could go on with out her and no one would notice. Drita tried her damnest to stay calm but CSU continued to goat her and knows that most mothers don’t want you bringing up their children in a situation like this.

    I’ll wait for the full recap to comment further…

    Did they try ti wind Drita up or what? You could literally tell when she blacked out and saw red. Porr thing was like a caged tiger. I know she’s a grown woman but come on you don’t egg someone with a temper like that on. Woman is going to die of a heart attack,

    CSU playing the mutha card is an asshole.

    Wow – just watched it. Epic doesn’t even BEGIN… First of all – Jennifer G. is an asshole. Now we know where all of the “word on the street” comes from. I felt so bad for Drita (and I have heard Karen call her “Driter” along with “Carler”) when everyone erupted. She had tears in her eyes while CSU smirked behind everyone because, at one point, it looked like everyone was ganged up on Drita. I’d have Drita’s back against that sorry wannabe’s ass any day!

    How Renee is keeping it together is beyond me. So the love of your life asks your father to marry you, knocks you up and talks about your future only to find out that he was wearing a wire to get information for the FEDs so he can get less time in jail. Then you have to continue to address the situation so it’s as if you are opening the wound over and over again.

    JulieSF yes Drita did do something wrong, thus why she was getting so upset in her anger management therapy when they were discussing Karen. Drita knows she fucked up big time. You don’t fuck the ex-boyfriend of your friend especially when you were living in that friend’s house.

    I don’t think what Drita did was so wrong she lived with Karen but she didn’t get with Lee until after he & Karen broke up. Either way Karen was cheating on Lee leading me to believe she didn’t care about him that much & the only reason she keeps bringing this up is to have an excuse to start shit with Drita & stay relevant.
    Speaking of irrelevant bitches…. CSU is a joke. Did anyone notice when they said Big Ang’s boobs were a size J & she goes ” j for giant” haha That thing that they brought up about Carla fucking Karen’s uncle was just another attempt to start shit because they have nothing on Carla. I can tell Carla is intelligent & prefers keeping things classy.

    Ohh and when Carla said that all Karen & Lucifer did was bash Drita they tried to deny it. When Karen & Carla met to talk about her issues all Karen did was talk shit about Drita & now she tries to deny it? Please, do these women forget there are cameras ?

    @labowner
    No. She’s ashamed because she let her friendship with Karen turn into violence. When Karen came back to Staten Island Drita was the first to welcome her. Karen had PLENTY of time to air her grievances with her before they began shooting because they were conversing. How convenient.

    Yes, I can buy that Drita was wrong to date an ex boyfriend of a friend point blank and I do think she feels a little guilty about that and that is perhaps why she gets upset but;

    1.) She SINCERELY apologized. More than once I believe
    2.) And I think her real anger issue with Karen is just as was mentioned above. Karen came to SI, was all buddy buddy with Drita but was talking shit during her solo interviews and like literally out of the blue brought up that she was still bothered by the Lee thing. She’s entitled to be bothered but she should have said something from jump street and not made an issue out of a non issue after they had met up and been friendly more than once.

    I also was going to begrudgingly give her credit for being somewhat of an adult at the sit down but then she just goes and tries to make Carla look bad by bringing up something that has nothing to do with anything all while repeating how she didn’t wanna bring it up?! Then why the eff are you bringing it up? What did it have to do with anything? What did Carla even say to her that warranted such a nasty thing to say? Even if it is true like what was the purpose.

    And Ramna can miss me with this we are all mothers bull shit. I almost wish Drita hadn’t risen to the bait and had just let that idiot talk herself to death. She is so gross an obvious.

    In my world, if I know the ex looks like Karen, why would I want a man who would want someone like her?

    You see how immature Karen behaves, why in the hell do you expect her to accept an apology like an adult? She obviously is hurting from not only Drita, but a truck load of fucked up family issues and needs therapy. They all do.
