Speaker 1: Stay tuned, we'll be right back after these quick ads.
Speaker 1: Hey rain drops. So today's podcast episode, we're going to
Speaker 1: do a retrospective of the Real Housewives of New Jersey
Speaker 1: season two, the epic country Club Showdown. Because you guys
Speaker 1: loved the episode in which I gave my retrospective of
Speaker 1: the Real Housewives of Atlanta season six, the epic Pillo
Speaker 1: talk Melee, we should call it that, I felt the
Speaker 1: need to do another one for you guys because y'all
Speaker 1: love that one. I mean, y'all tweeted about it, y'all
Speaker 1: made funny comments about it. So it's nice to be
Speaker 1: able to go back down memory lane and talk about
Speaker 1: some of the epic moments in reality television that I
Speaker 1: have been a part of. So on today's episode, we're
Speaker 1: going to talk about Yes, country Club Melee, Teresa, Jacqueline, Danielle.
Speaker 2: Kim G and of course Kim D.
Speaker 1: Let's go back into what happened season two. Okay, so
Speaker 1: you guys have heart and nauseam me talk about season
Speaker 1: one of the Real housewats on New Jersey about you know,
Speaker 1: the table flip. I talked about that with Danielle Stobb,
Speaker 1: who was a very special guest on the podcast, so
Speaker 1: we went down that memory lane. So picking up where
Speaker 1: we left off, let's talk about the start of season two.
Speaker 1: Season one was a huge hit. I mean, Teresa flipped
Speaker 1: the table. It was the talk of the town. It
Speaker 1: was a pop culture phenomenon. It became like this big
Speaker 1: mainstream press opportunity and The Real Housewives of New Jersey
Speaker 1: was the one to watch. So we knew that season
Speaker 1: two had to be better because my thing is this,
Speaker 1: every season you should try to top the other And
Speaker 1: when I say you, I mean yes, the stars, but
Speaker 1: also the producing team in terms of following the reality
Speaker 1: of what's really happening on the show.
Speaker 2: So one of the things we knew going into season.
Speaker 1: Two was the fact that Danielle was on an island.
Speaker 2: None of the other women were fucking with.
Speaker 1: Danielle, and that was obvious, okay, And we've never seen
Speaker 1: that before in reality television, where you had an ensemble
Speaker 1: cast but one person was the out cast.
Speaker 2: You've never seen that.
Speaker 1: It usually is a situation to where they at least
Speaker 1: are into great with one person. Like even when Kenya
Speaker 1: was on an island a little bit at least she had,
Speaker 1: like you know, Candy or Cynthia, or Nini, even Danielle
Speaker 1: was on her own, and we knew that that was
Speaker 1: going to be very challenging and telling a story about
Speaker 1: a group of friends, your girl friends in Air quotes
Speaker 1: a group of friends who were behind the gates in
Speaker 1: New Jersey. But we had to work with what we
Speaker 1: had right. So with that being said, we knew that
Speaker 1: Dina Manzo was not going to be a full time
Speaker 1: housewife and on a personal note, that devastated me. I
Speaker 1: love Dina. I still love Dina. Dina is a beautiful
Speaker 1: person inside and out. She's super spiritual. She taught me
Speaker 1: about meditation. Like I'm not being silly about this, Like
Speaker 1: Dina taught me meditation. She and I both have this
Speaker 1: affection for Oprah when free, like me and Dina have
Speaker 1: very deep, deep, deep conversations. So after season one, Dina
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I just I can't see
Speaker 1: myself doing another season like this.
Speaker 2: I just can't.
Speaker 1: But Dina also understood, Look, I know that I have
Speaker 1: to take the audience on this journey of why I'm leaving,
Speaker 1: So I'm open to doing that. So long story short,
Speaker 1: Dina gave us a commitment of a certain amount of episodes, right,
Speaker 1: and in terms of production, we have maybe two weeks
Speaker 1: with Dina before she sort of like rolled off in
Speaker 1: the sunset, right. So with that being said, we knew
Speaker 1: that if Dina's leaving the show, that leaves us with
Speaker 1: four housewives, and there's never been just four housewives.
Speaker 2: You need more than that to make a good show.
Speaker 1: And that's where Danie I'll say team and air quotes
Speaker 1: came in. So that's how we were introduced to Kim
Speaker 1: G and Kim D because yes, we were looking to
Speaker 1: see who could replace Dina, and quite naturally, since we
Speaker 1: knew that Caroline, Jacqueline Teresa were friends, we knew that
Speaker 1: Danielle needed a friend, and Danielle introduced us to Kim.
Speaker 2: DE and Kim G.
Speaker 1: Well, Danielle didn't introduce me to them because, as you
Speaker 1: guys heard on my interview with Danielle, I was banned
Speaker 1: from Danielle's house.
Speaker 2: Danielle was not fucking with your boy.
Speaker 1: Danielle felt that I did not have her back during
Speaker 1: season one and when I say have her back, and
Speaker 1: she said this on the podcast, So this isn't like
Speaker 1: any specialty, but Danielle said.
Speaker 2: That while the episodes were airing.
Speaker 1: She obviously was watching these women talk of her and
Speaker 1: the way she didn't know, and she felt that I
Speaker 1: should have checked in on her. And she was mad
Speaker 1: at me, And what that means is she just wasn't
Speaker 1: fuck it with me. She did not want me to
Speaker 1: be around her. She did not want to see me.
Speaker 1: And I felt bad because I was like, had I
Speaker 1: known you wanted me to check in, I of course
Speaker 1: would have done it. But at the time I was
Speaker 1: working on season two of The Royal House Wilds of Atlanta,
Speaker 1: so I was too busy working that I didn't know
Speaker 1: I had to reach out to Danielle to check in
Speaker 1: on her.
Speaker 2: And I'm not blaming her for that.
Speaker 1: One thing I always tell you guys about reality stars
Speaker 1: is they're very sensitive. And I don't know what it's
Speaker 1: like to give my life in front of the camera.
Speaker 1: You know, I have no idea what that feels like.
Speaker 1: And that's why I never take for granted when one
Speaker 1: of my stars say to me like I need you
Speaker 1: or can you talk to me? I would drop what
Speaker 1: I'm doing for my reality star if I feel like
Speaker 1: they're in need. Okay, So I felt bad, But as
Speaker 1: you guys heard on the episode, Danielle said, look, I'll
Speaker 1: over exaggerated. I should have never done that, and she
Speaker 1: regretted it, and me and Danielle are good, so I
Speaker 1: want to make that very clear. So Danielle introduced to
Speaker 1: her producers Kim D and Kim G, and we were
Speaker 1: so enamored with their personality. I mean, Kim G had
Speaker 1: a connection with Caroline because Kim G's son was best
Speaker 1: friends with Chris Manzo, like best friends, so Caroline and
Speaker 1: Kim G knew each other. But as you saw in
Speaker 1: the episodes of season two, Caroline also just wasn't feeling
Speaker 1: Kim G because if you know Caroline, Caroline is a
Speaker 1: straight shooter and Kim G, who I love, you know,
Speaker 1: kim a little whacky in a good way, So that's
Speaker 1: not Caroline's cup of tea. So the idea of bringing
Speaker 1: in somebody who had that connection was interesting to.
Speaker 2: All the producers. So we love Kim G.
Speaker 1: Kim D, who hosts the Posh Fashion Show, is a
Speaker 1: joy to work with. She's super fun and we were like,
Speaker 1: you know what, this may be two good additions to
Speaker 1: this season and possibly maybe one could be a housewife.
Speaker 1: So when Dina left the show, after she and Danielle
Speaker 1: had that epics show down, that's when we realize, okay,
Speaker 1: we have to really not audition, but really show more
Speaker 1: of the two Kims to really see how much they
Speaker 1: can be integrated into the season. Long story short, when
Speaker 1: Kim Dee had the posh fashion show, we all were like,
Speaker 1: you know what, this would be the perfect backdrop to
Speaker 1: where all the girls, all the housewives can be in
Speaker 1: the same room, because up until that point, it did
Speaker 1: not make sense for them to be together because none
Speaker 1: of them wanted to film with each other, and that's
Speaker 1: not gonna make great television. You can't do a show
Speaker 1: about these women if they're not interacting with each other.
Speaker 1: And that was very difficult, and I need for you
Speaker 1: guys to understand how difficult it is to shoot an
Speaker 1: ensemble show where one person is literally on an island
Speaker 1: by themselves.
Speaker 2: Is the impossible thing to do.
Speaker 1: And mind you, this was my second year in producing
Speaker 1: reality television, after doing season one of Atlanta and season
Speaker 1: one of New Jersey, and at that time, I completed
Speaker 1: season two of Atlanta, so even I was like, shit,
Speaker 1: how are we able to do this? This is going
Speaker 1: to be very challenging, But y'all know me. I'm up
Speaker 1: for a challenge. I hate to interrupt me, but stay
Speaker 1: tuned for more. We'll be right back after these quick asss.
Speaker 1: This is reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King.
Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show. The Posh Fashion Show
Speaker 1: was the talk of New Jersey. Okay, no, it's not
Speaker 1: like New York fashion and a win tour did not
Speaker 1: show up, guys, But in New Jersey at that time,
Speaker 1: in Franklin Lakes, the Posh Fashion Show was the event
Speaker 1: of New Jersey. So we wanted Caroline to attend. Caroline
Speaker 1: was like, I would never attend Kim D's fashion show.
Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense. And the one rule that I
Speaker 1: have is follow the reality. Don't make shit up, don't
Speaker 1: fake shit, follow the reality. And then Karen Manso's reality.
Speaker 1: She was like, I just would never attend Kim De's
Speaker 1: fashion show. That's Teresa and Jaquale's friend and it makes
Speaker 1: sense for them to go.
Speaker 2: So Caroline was like, I'm not coming. And one thing
Speaker 2: that I don't do.
Speaker 1: If that's your reality, I'm not going to force anything
Speaker 1: upon you because that's real and you will always get
Speaker 1: the best compelling television when you follow the reality, so
Speaker 1: that's why Caroline did not go. So here we are
Speaker 1: the night of the POJ fashion show. We were all
Speaker 1: nervous because it was a huge deal to know that Danielle, Jacqueline,
Speaker 1: and Teresa were going to see each other for the
Speaker 1: first time this season. So after the fashion show and
Speaker 1: all the brew haha, all the looks and stairs of
Speaker 1: these women being in the same room together, we knew
Speaker 1: that look, at the end of the day, y'all gonna
Speaker 1: have to speak to each other. But we didn't know
Speaker 1: how that would happen. And this is when we realized
Speaker 1: Teresa Judais is the force multiplier of this franchise. One
Speaker 1: thing about Teresa, She's going to give you good TV
Speaker 1: because she understands television and she understands real life.
Speaker 2: So she also knew.
Speaker 1: How huge of a deal it was to have her, Jacqueline,
Speaker 1: and Danielle.
Speaker 2: In the same room.
Speaker 1: So Teresa walks up to me, because again I was
Speaker 1: Teresa's producer. Danielle kicked me to the curb, so I
Speaker 1: belonged to Teresa, Jacqueline, and Caroline. So Teresa comes up
Speaker 1: to me and she's like, I want to talk to Danielle.
Speaker 2: And I said, baby, this is why I love you.
Speaker 2: This is why I stand this. I mean, I I
Speaker 2: just I just love you.
Speaker 1: And she was like, but I don't know what to
Speaker 1: say to her, because she was like, look, I'm not stupid.
Speaker 2: It's a big deal. Danielle's here.
Speaker 1: This moment of us being together may not happen ever again.
Speaker 1: So I know, I got to talk to her. And
Speaker 1: she said, but I don't know what to say to her.
Speaker 1: And I said to Teresa Judies, just say hello, just
Speaker 1: say hello, and she said that's it. I said, baby,
Speaker 1: that's all you need. Just say hello. And she said
Speaker 1: I can do that. Where is the bitch, I said,
Speaker 1: but Danielle's actually in the bathroom. She goes, enough said,
Speaker 1: so there, she goes gets Jack.
Speaker 2: You gotta love Teresa. She goes and get Jacqueline.
Speaker 1: And there's a like a coffee table and two chairs
Speaker 1: side by side. This coffee table near the bathroom. So
Speaker 1: Teresa and Jacqueline sit in the chairs near the women's
Speaker 1: bathroom and Danielle is in the bathroom with Kim g Okay.
Speaker 1: So when Danielle walks out, that's why Teresa goes hello.
Speaker 2: And I want to paint the picture for you guys.
Speaker 1: So, knowing that this was going to be the first
Speaker 1: time these women saw each other this season, I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know how this is going to go, like
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, you want them
Speaker 1: to talk and you want to see what they're going
Speaker 1: to say to each other because they haven't seen each
Speaker 1: other since season one reunion a lot of months when
Speaker 1: and it was just all this like anxiety going into
Speaker 1: this conversation. So I'm sweating bullets, like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: how is this conversation going to go?
Speaker 2: Like what's about to happen?
Speaker 1: So Teresa's like hi, and Danielle gagged because she's like Teresa,
Speaker 1: the woman who flipped the table is speaking to me,
Speaker 1: okay girl, So you know Teresa's being pleasant, right, like Hi,
Speaker 1: you know, I just want to say hello to you.
Speaker 1: We're here at this posh passion show. I just want
Speaker 1: to say hi. And then it just went left after
Speaker 1: that in terms of you know, Danielle bringing up like, well,
Speaker 1: you know you did this to me, did that to me?
Speaker 1: And Teresa said, you know, sweetie, and Danielle's like, gonna
Speaker 1: call me sweetie, and then Teresa says the infamous I
Speaker 1: didn't want to call you sweety o' hag you. Oh
Speaker 1: bitch is bitch better? It's bitch better.
Speaker 2: And I was like, okay, well this ain't going.
Speaker 1: How I thought it was, but okay, we're going to
Speaker 1: do what guys follow the reality.
Speaker 2: So Danielle goes, that's a fuck enough. Oh Lord Jesus.
Speaker 1: And one thing you don't do to Teresa Judais is
Speaker 1: cuss at her. So Teresa is wearing her chinchilla that
Speaker 1: she got from Barbie's Dream House or should I say
Speaker 1: Jia's House child. It was this beautiful girl, black and
Speaker 1: silver chinchilla. She got up on her seat and she
Speaker 1: started rolling her neck. Now, look, if you are a
Speaker 1: black girl, you know when you roll your neck, always
Speaker 1: about to go down basement, right.
Speaker 2: So then dan Yelle made a comment that I was like,
Speaker 2: yikes on the bikes.
Speaker 1: So Danielle goes, what's that ghetto shit you're doing?
Speaker 2: And I was like, okay, Danielle, that's not cute.
Speaker 1: So then Teresa response was, I'm from Patterson.
Speaker 2: Did you forget it? Did you forget it?
Speaker 1: I'm from Patterson, so I'm from Detroit. I never heard
Speaker 1: of Patterson, New Jersey. But apparently Patterson, New Jersey.
Speaker 2: Allegedly is the hood.
Speaker 1: That's what I was told child Patterson allegedly, and god,
Speaker 1: if you're from Patterson, I'm only tell you what I
Speaker 1: was told. And if it's not the hood, hashtag reality
Speaker 1: with the.
Speaker 2: King and let me know.
Speaker 1: But at the time I was told Patterson was the Hood,
Speaker 1: which is why Danyelle made that comment, and why Teresa goes, yes,
Speaker 1: I'm from Patterson.
Speaker 2: Did you forget?
Speaker 1: And that's when Danielle was like, no, I did not forget, Teresa.
Speaker 1: You know, we know where you used to live whatever
Speaker 1: before the mansion. And Teresa was like, I live in
Speaker 1: a mansion now, and she goes, yeah, but it's in foreclosure.
Speaker 1: And Teresa was like, my house isign in foreclosure, bitch
Speaker 1: and baby.
Speaker 2: That's when all hell broke lose.
Speaker 1: So Danielle said, you yelled at me once, you're not
Speaker 1: going to do it again. And that's when she was
Speaker 1: surrounded by this bodyguard. Not Kevin Costner, he gave more
Speaker 1: Seawn Spicer tease, Yes, the former Press secretary to the
Speaker 1: forty fourth President of the United States. So this bodyguard
Speaker 1: who resemble a young Shawn Spicer was holding Danielle. So
Speaker 1: Danielle was walking away and Kim G tried to diffuse
Speaker 1: the situation by holding on to Teresa, and that's when
Speaker 1: Teresa showed you who Patterson really was and literally pushed
Speaker 1: kim G. And the next thing we know, these rich
Speaker 1: white women in New Jersey at a country club. No
Speaker 1: less was running down the hall in their lubatons and
Speaker 1: I never saw anything like this. It was like the
Speaker 1: grown up back Girls Club or the grown up version
Speaker 1: of the Jersey Shore. And Teresa was giving snooky teas
Speaker 1: throughout the night. So she's chasing literally like running down
Speaker 1: the hall in her rid bottoms, and Danielle is running
Speaker 1: like she is Whitney Houston from the bodyguard, trying to
Speaker 1: find her Kevin Costner like it was a track meet.
Speaker 1: It gave very Sonya Richard's Ross from Atlanta Housewives tease.
Speaker 1: It gave very track star like it was and I
Speaker 1: was trying to catch up. So if you look at
Speaker 1: the episode, I'm wearing a Mickey Mouse T shirt, which
Speaker 1: is so ironic because there was nothing Disneyland about this melee.
Speaker 1: It did not give Disney. It gave very much wwe
Speaker 1: like it. It was nothing Disney about what was happening.
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to, of course, yes, follow the reality,
Speaker 1: but also making sure that people are safe. So a
Speaker 1: lot of people are holding Teresa back because again they saw.
Speaker 2: What she did a few months ago by flipping.
Speaker 1: A table, and they knew that Teresa would flip Danielle,
Speaker 1: and nobody wanted that to happen, and Jacqueline was too
Speaker 1: busy running down Danielle's court documents. So the way Jacqueline
Speaker 1: operates is Jacqueline is a student.
Speaker 2: She is a grade A student. She studies, right.
Speaker 1: So Jacqueline literally you suspend night and day reading upon
Speaker 1: the court documents about Danielle. So she had that in
Speaker 1: her brain, so as is Melee was happening, Jacqueline was
Speaker 1: acting like a court reporter, really telling everybody in the
Speaker 1: hallway what was allegedly.
Speaker 2: In those court documents.
Speaker 1: Little did she know her daughter Athlete was on the
Speaker 1: prowl and when she pulled Danielle's hair, I was like, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: So after Ashley pulled Danielle's hair, it was like, what
Speaker 1: the fuck is happening right now? Like all of this
Speaker 1: is happening only because Teresa said hello, like it was
Speaker 1: crazy to me. But it also goes to show you
Speaker 1: a thing that I always talk about on this podcast
Speaker 1: and when I do press or when I do speaking engagements.
Speaker 1: The reason why we love reality TV so much is
Speaker 1: because it's a lesson in human behavior. And when you
Speaker 1: bottle so much inkst inside, it doesn't do you any
Speaker 1: good because when you see the person you're mad at,
Speaker 1: it regurgitates every single thing you're feeling on the inside
Speaker 1: and it just becomes a bigger ordeal. And that is
Speaker 1: what was happening right before my eyes. That whole scene
Speaker 1: gave me very much The Godfather Part two, three, four,
Speaker 1: five insects.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: I mean, I was I wish I could explain to
Speaker 1: you guys what I was going through.
Speaker 2: Now. Look as a producer, of course, you're like.
Speaker 1: Okay, follow the story, But as a human being, you're like,
Speaker 1: how did all of this shit happen?
Speaker 2: Like? What the fuck is going on here? The chaos
Speaker 2: was crazy.
Speaker 1: Those women in Jersey, you think they would have left, honey,
Speaker 1: They were too busy eating.
Speaker 2: Popcorn, watching television.
Speaker 1: And I love my Jersey women, the Jersey women, baby,
Speaker 1: they love some drama. They all stood there except as
Speaker 1: one woman. If you go back and watch the moment
Speaker 1: all the ladies were running down the country club. You
Speaker 1: would see this blond woman who was so disturbed. She's
Speaker 1: not a Karen, She's a Catherine. Remember that's a difference
Speaker 1: between a Karen and a Catherine. She was a Catherine, honey.
Speaker 1: And that's when she said, this is fucking bullshit, like
Speaker 1: that's a Catherine. So she was the only one who
Speaker 1: was like, what in the ghetto gala is going on here?
Speaker 2: In my Winter Voice from Love and Marriage DC, Yes, okay.
Speaker 2: So Danielle goes in the car.
Speaker 1: She's being held by Sean Spicer, the bodyguard, and Teresa
Speaker 1: like the terminator, is walking towards the Bentley in her Chinchilla,
Speaker 1: her heels still intact, and the driver, Kim G's driver,
Speaker 1: is telling Teresa like, come on, baby, you gots like like, girl,
Speaker 1: you don't think you've done enough, like chill out, and
Speaker 1: Teresa was like, I'm over it.
Speaker 2: I'm over the bitch.
Speaker 1: And he's like okay, but you're about to approach a
Speaker 1: Bentley and I can't have you do that.
Speaker 2: And she was like, I'm good, I'm cool. I saw
Speaker 2: on my kids. I'm cool. But that's Teresa. I think
Speaker 2: Teresa just had to blow out.
Speaker 1: The steam and once she did it, she was fine.
Speaker 1: And that's when Jacqueline was trying to get Teresa to
Speaker 1: not walk up to the car, and Jacqueline even stands
Speaker 1: in front of the car, which I'm like, is this
Speaker 1: an intimidating tactic?
Speaker 2: It was? It was.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was just so interesting to watch all
Speaker 1: of this unfold because again, guys, we had no idea
Speaker 1: that all of this was going to happen.
Speaker 2: And that night, truly, truly is when we all.
Speaker 1: Realize this show has a life on its own. And
Speaker 1: the fact that at this time you only had three
Speaker 1: housewives present Danielle, Jacqueline, and Teresa, and the fact that
Speaker 1: you only had three housewives present and this should happen
Speaker 1: ghost to show you is not about quantity, it's about quality.
Speaker 1: And those three women truly truly are stars in their
Speaker 1: own right because they have this ability to forget the
Speaker 1: cameras are there.
Speaker 2: And one thing that I will say, you know.
Speaker 1: There's a reason why Danielle and Teresa were a part
Speaker 1: of my top ten Greatest Housewives of all time because
Speaker 1: to me, they're just they're dynamic to watch and they
Speaker 1: truly give their all to the show. But I want
Speaker 1: to take a time out to give Jacqueline LaRita an
Speaker 1: honorable mention. I feel like Jacqueline is super underrated.
Speaker 2: Jacqueline is.
Speaker 1: A sweetheart, but Jacqueline knows how to make great television
Speaker 1: two and I think a lot of people sleep on her.
Speaker 1: I am a huge fan of Jacqueline, and so is Teresa,
Speaker 1: which is why Teresa said, please bring Jacqueline back on
Speaker 1: the show. Because one thing about to Esa who yes
Speaker 1: is the force multiplier. Teresa likes to work with people
Speaker 1: who makes great television, and without a doubt, Jacqueline makes
Speaker 1: great TV because Jacqueline is so rooted in her reality
Speaker 1: that she doesn't know how to be anybody but herself,
Speaker 1: and that, to me is the beauty of her. And
Speaker 1: to know that a woman can stand up against her
Speaker 1: family and in some cases people will say go against
Speaker 1: her family. Jacqueline does that and she does it with
Speaker 1: such humanity in the sense of in Jacqueline's.
Speaker 2: World, she believes right is right and wrong is wrong.
Speaker 1: And I'm not the judge or the jury, but as
Speaker 1: a producer, you can appreciate a woman who stands alone
Speaker 1: and can say like this is how I feel. And
Speaker 1: throughout this whole Melee at the country Club. What was
Speaker 1: so interesting about it is the fact that Jacqueline was
Speaker 1: laser focused on repeating what she read in these core documents,
Speaker 1: but also chastising her daughter Ashley so much so Ashley said, great, mom,
Speaker 1: you're picking Danielle's side like Jacqueline can identify right from wrong.
Speaker 1: And even throughout season two, Jacqueline, Teresa, who we used
Speaker 1: to call Thelma Luise, they all knew that at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, Danielle was great television. And as
Speaker 1: we were trying to figure out what Season two could become,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, Caroline, Teresa, and Jacqueline
Speaker 1: all understood the assignment.
Speaker 2: They really did.
Speaker 1: And that's why when Caroline was face to face with
Speaker 1: Danielle at the season finale, Caroline knew how big of
Speaker 1: a deal that was going to be. And Caroline also
Speaker 1: is somebody who is super dynamic, super great because she
Speaker 1: also knows what makes great television. As long as is
Speaker 1: rooted in Caroline's reality, she will give you great television.
Speaker 1: And I think Season two of the Real Housewives in
Speaker 1: New Jersey and yes, I'm about to say it is
Speaker 1: probably number two of the greatest seasons of Housewives history.
Speaker 1: Number one will always be The Real Housewives of Atlanta
Speaker 1: Season six.
Speaker 2: You can't top that.
Speaker 1: The reason why I would give The Real Housewives of
Speaker 1: New Jersey Season two the second best season in the
Speaker 1: entire history of The Real Housewives is because I don't
Speaker 1: know any franchise that can give you a spectacular season
Speaker 1: with just four women.
Speaker 2: Four Think about that for a second.
Speaker 1: Four women gave an astounding season, and the the fact
Speaker 1: that I had the privilege of watching these women give you,
Speaker 1: guys a great show means the world to me. But
Speaker 1: also just knowing that they really did show all of
Speaker 1: you their reality. And because we really and when I
Speaker 1: say we, I mean all the producers, because the producers,
Speaker 1: we really did not know what to expect from a
Speaker 1: cast of four housewives.
Speaker 2: And yes, I will continue to say four.
Speaker 1: Because so many shows honey got subven or a Housewives
Speaker 1: and can't even hold a candle to these four. Okay,
Speaker 1: these four women gave a compelling season.
Speaker 2: There was not one filler episode this season.
Speaker 1: I mean we got Danielle at the Brownstone. That season
Speaker 1: has some of the best producers in the game. Because
Speaker 1: we all worked together to really make sure this season
Speaker 1: was great because we had so much pressure to follow
Speaker 1: the fantastic season one and to be able to do
Speaker 1: that with four housewives.
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'm gonna pat myself on the back
Speaker 2: and I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna pet the other producers on the backs two because
