One episode is enough, it's time to see if they are the real deal and have them wacked and put out of our misery. Start with the Freddie Mercury lookalike. I think we found a good island to store our nuclear waste.
Next.

I don't care what anyboday says, people from the east coast (New Jersey, Staten Island,etc.) rule!!....I am completely amazed every time I watch Jersey Shore or Mob Wives, Real Housewives of New Jersey. To be honest, they're down right crazy and a little raunchy, but I think they're the real deal. They don't pretend they're something that their not. Unlike people on other "Reality" shows. They are who they are and their not going to apologize for it. Ya either love'em or hate'em....and I LOVE'EM!!!

One thing this show isn't: Boring. The show has a lot of drama, of course, what reality show does not have drama? Much less, a reality show about mob wives. There is more than enough drama in this show to go around and it will keep you hooked, waiting for each new episode, for sure.

Ever since reality television changed a few years ago, I've been hooked. This show adds up all the craziness that's gone on in reality tv in one hour. First off, how did they get serious organized crime families to participate in this show? Something tells me that the Italian mafia may not be as powerful as it once was (as hearing from relatives).

Anyway the synaposis with this show starts off with a bang, Karen's basically looking for revenge by writing an expose on everybody's dirty laundry. They say their all scared, yet their on a well publicized tv show produced by the Weinstein Bros? Well,the other three aren't going to have anything to do with that and of course confrontation ensues. Soon Renee Befriends Karen a .k.a. Sammy the Bull's Daughter, only to turn on Carla and Drita(Drita being the most desperate!).

The high point of the season ends with a rooftop blowdown of Karen accusing Drita of being backstabbing! On top of a nice luxury hotel in New York City while alll wearing fur coats.(I think Carla was the smartest out of all this to stay out and laugh).

The show does provide a fascinating look into the lives of women who make decent money,well with blood on their hands. Also, how they dealt with their fathers/ husbands past, which is the key thing. On a side note: Most of the women all have men in prison. I find it alittle desperate. It also shows how fathers deal with rebuilding relationships from prison. (Ugh! Staten Island Peyton Place!!!)

Overall, this is alittle tackier version of the New Jersey Housewives. It starts out fast, gets slow, and ends the bang. If your a fan of Mario Puzo or the Godfather, then your gonna love this!
