Betty and Bubbies

Woo hoo!!! Mad Men is finally here!!! I have been waiting so long for this! I was definitely surprised by some of the events in the show....it is amazing to me how dark the show can get and then two seconds later be unexpectedly lightened by one of Roger's quips....Pete is definitely growing on me and I can see him trying to move in on Peggy at some point this season. I think her success and self imposed confidence is going to be a major turn on for him....AND I think she will deny him because she has all of that said self imposed confidence.....Don is still Don. Ruggedly smooth and mysteriously sexy....did it take anyone else a minute to realize that his lady friend at the end was a prostitute? (it was wasn't it??)...the hubs and I were confused about that one. He's never had a problem picking a girl up....but oh wait, can you see him trying to convince the teacher to smack him around?? I think not. And whatever happened to her anyways? Roger is still my beloved Roger. You can't help but love him. I think he and Joan are going to rekindle their love....at least, that's what I'm hoping....she would make such a good Mrs. Sterling!!! Dump Jane Roger!!! We're Team Joan!!! Jane is seriously lacking in the personality and the junk in the trunk department.... Moving on to Betty.....I just want to like her SO much!!! But she's making it very hard. Before that random guy she slept with in that bar in Season 2/3 (my memory is fading) and then Henry, I was so empathetic to her.....I do think that she should have left Don, probably sooner than she did....Don was the ass and she was the class act....but her spiteful, childish ways are really starting to tarnish her reputation. Seriously, living in the house that Don is paying for with your new husband? low. She is a woman scorned. We get it. Move on. She's no longer the innocent victim. Glass houses, Betty. Glass houses.
I am lovin' Peggy's new do!!! Such a perfect little coif for her!!!!

Speaking of class acts.....my besties from the turnpike are baaaaaack tonight!!!!! I have the Special Olympics gala tonight so my DVR is set and ready!! Which, I am disappointed though that Angelina is back. She seriously left after the first episode....WHY did they bring her back? She wasn't even part of the success!!! But, I did hear/read that she leaves again, let's home this time it's for good.



I am so sad that my other NJ loves are coming to an end....I tell you one thing, if I had
the money, you best believe I would be hoppin' on a plane on Aug 22 to witness the auction. I did find a list of the auction items and I do feel bad for her. For one reason being that how humiliating to have to sell all of your stuff? Another reason being that she has such tacky taste. I would still take some of her tacky stuff, though, just to say that it came from her!!! Ugh...and Danielle....seriously, you and your lesbian lover need to just go get your own show....that way you can still be a crazy, psychotic fame whore, but we won't have to watch your sunken in face each week. And to sit there and bequeath your engagement ring and flaunt it all around at the party? AS IF your husband's newer, less nastier wife really cares....she's probably trying to run for the hills so people don't realize that HER Tom used to be YOUR Tom....poor thing, she had no idea what she was signing up for when she married your ex....I think that that should definitely warrant her getting a huge circee for appearing during such an embarrassing display of behavior frin Danielle. And WHAT CHARITY did Christine raise ______ for? Was it money? Canned food for the food bank? They never showed the charitable part of the evening, and I was unable to find it anywhere on google....oh jeez, I am sure going to miss Tre and Caroline!! I am super excited about Dina coming back next week though!!!! Enough trash talkin' for today!!!
love you all~

  1. Love love love Don and the gang and we are pretty much on the same note with all the characters. Roger is such great with the comedic timing, he cracks me up! When Don's woman friend first walked in he was counting money. It was super quick but that was the giveaway that she was a 'woman of the night'. Also, Peggy's new little friend I just loved him on The Deep End (lawyer show on ABC that was abruptly cancelled) so I hope he sticks around this show longer. And finally Betty. She needs to get her new husband out of her old husband's house pronto! Can't wait for Sunday!!!

  2. I was just having this discussion with a friend yesterday. The only thing that is at all redeeming about Don is his clever ad-mind, so why do we all cheer for him, long for him?

    He's a studly hunk, that's why.

  3. I am loving Mad Men too and it's definitely darker this season. I think they want people to hate Betty for being how she is and I am loving Peggy so far!

  4. Can you and I please just be best TV buddies? This post (and all your reality TV posts) make me so happy!! I loved the Mad Men premiere - Betty is a mess. I just wanted to hug her little girl when she took the phone out of her hands.

    And, Real Housewives - can we please talk about Danielle's daughter's Sweet 16 party and how wacko she was around her ex husband. Blech. Poor Teresa... I wonder if that ring is up for auction. I think it might look nice on my finger! (As if I could afford it...)

  9. I agree with everything you said! Mad Men was soo boring the first half last Sunday. By the end, it was much better ;)

  10. Oh my gosh... I didn't know Teresa and Joe are bankrupt. I do feel bad for her. How embarrassing to deal with this in the spotlight. So, when Danielle said "your house is in foreclosure," was it??? Love that show!

  11. I am soooo very happy that mad men is back too!! I just caught up on the 2 episodes this week!! Roger is by far my favorite!!! I dream about him and his sexiness day and night!!! And I am definitely on Team Joan!! I really want him and Joan to get back together!! I agree about Pete...I used to hate him but he is growing on me and I do think he is going to put the moves on Peggy!!

  12. I'm so embarrassed to admit how much I love Jersey Shore. Last night was so good. I love the Ron and Sam drama, but I do loath Angelina!
