Bravo doing remix of 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' table-flipping

Last week, we met up with Andy Cohen, who is Bravo's original programming guy. We talked a bit about, obviously, "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," which aired its finale last night. (How classy was it? So classy that there was a cameo by none other than Bernie Kerik!) The notable extra-crazy was Teresa Giudice absolutely freaking out on fellow castmate Danielle Staub; Staub is at the center of outlandish and at least in part true claims about her past and how she was a stripper and may have been an escort and all sorts of other things. (Claims that are serving to propel her into stardom! Gah!)

Cohen promised more more more — some of which airs Thursday. "And by the the way the finale is so good," he said, "and this final supper where the women all get together and Teresa flips the table over? That's so good that we're making kind of a director's cut of that meal. So we're going to do an hour which is 'The Last Supper: The Extended Version,' which I think the fans are going to love." Not only that more, but more! "And we're going to do two parts of the reunion," he promised.

"Good" in Bravo-ese means "insane," right?

The HW of New Jersey are all idiots. I totally regret watching the show. Talk about the "dumbing down" of America. Sick. Sick. Sick.

This is my least favorite of all of the Real Housewives. For some reason, Bravo thinks we like to watch fighting. I liked the first two seasons of OC the best because the women were all friends, and it was fun to live vicariously through their opulent lifestyles. Why did they think they should devote a whole episode to the table flipping fight at the restaurant. It was unwatchable. Even OC is getting nasty these days. Stop it, Bravo.. that's not what we viewers want!
