Jerseylicious Season 5, Episode 6 recap: “Ex, Lies and Videotape”

It’s photo shoot time in Jerseylicious land! This whole episode primarily focuses on the shoot for Anthony & Olivia’s Jersey book. While at first I thought it was kind of a lame idea the way they wanted to go about it, it turns out it might actually be pretty cool. I for one wouldn’t mind checking it out — not to own, though. It covers everything from the boardwalk to football & aliens to glitter. So at the beginning Anthony is just lining up who is going to model for what scene. Alexa is back for this episode after all […]

Jerseylicious Season 5, Episode 5 recap: “Behind Frenemy Lines”

With so much drama going on in Jerseylicious land, what a snoozefest of an episode! First off, the gang at Anthony Roberts gets together to brainstorm ideas for the 225 years of Jersey picture book. Anthony & Olivia bring in Karl Giant to be photographer, which is a no-brainer. For budget reasons they decide it would be good to bring in help from the Gatsby and Alexa for hair, makeup & modeling. I was kind of excited about this since we have not seen hide nor hair of the Glam Factory bunch this season, but alas, still no one from […]

Breaking Amish Season 2: TLC’s controversial hit returns in May

It’s official: Breaking Amish Season 2 is in production in Sarasota, Florida, and all five cast members from the controversial TLC hit appear to be back to attempt a fresh start in sunnier climes. The series came under fire before its first season could even begin when online sleuths and acquaintances of the wayward Amish and Mennonite quintet quickly revealed that Abe, Rebecca, Kate, Sabrina and Jeremiah were far from the naive, fresh-off-the-farmland bumpkins in the Big Apple that the show portrayed. In short order, America knew that Sabrina, Jeremiah and Rebecca were all divorced, that “brand-new couple” Abe and Rebecca […]

Dance Moms Season 3 episode 8 recap: Friendship Not

This week on Dance Moms, Cathy, Abby and Jill are all cellmates in a New Jersey minimum-security women’s prison after the “sprinkle sprinkle whack the star” brawl back in Voorhees. Nah, they’re not. But it would have made for a great episode, isn’t that right, Dance Moms faithful? Beyond Scared Straight: Voorhees. Actually it’s just another day at the studio, where Christi is still missing and the other mothers are discussing it. They don’t get to discuss for too long, because look who’s marching back to war. On the lobby side of the dressing room door, this happens. Someone has mastered […]

Jerseylicious Season 5, Episode 4 recap: “Two Faced to Face”

Welcome back, Jerseylicious fans. In the latest installment, we learn that Anthony is all about starting a book to celebrate the history of hairstyles and fashion in New Jersey for the state’s 225-year anniversary. Now at first I’m thinking that’s a cool idea: they can re-create the looks of what was big during that time period. WRONG! They will re-create events in Jersey’s past, using modern hair and fashion. Sounds kind of lame to me, but whatevs. Tracy offers up her friend Sammy to help out, since she has experience dealing with publishers, so Sammy sits down with Anthony and […]

Gypsy Sisters preview: Last Fling Before the Ring

When we left the Gypsy Sisters last week, everybody was suffering from major family drama. Mellie and Nettie were struggling with their emotions about mama Lottie Mae’s release from prison — and about each other. Kayla and her husband Richard were struggling with their emotions about their daughter’s growing interest in boys — especially one particular gorger boy. And calm and sunny Laura was pretty much stuck in the middle of all it, as per usual. That’s right where we pick up for episode 3, aptly titled “Last Fling Before the Ring.” Mellie alternates between snuggling up to her mama like […]

Celebrity Wife Swap: Kate Gosselin, Kendra Wilkinson trade lives in season premiere

ABC announced today that  Celebrity Wife Swap will return Tuesday, Feb. 26 with a doozie of a switch-up: former Playboy Bunny turned reality star Kendra Wilkinson and former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star Kate Gosselin. Since Gosselin’s been serving as single mom to 12-year-old twins Cara and Mady, and 8-year-old sextuplets Aaden, Collin, Joel, Leah, Alexis and Hannah since her 2009 divorce from Jon Gosselin, it’s hard not to argue that she got the better deal, moving in with Wilkinson’s husband, former NFL star Hank Baskett and their toddler son Hank, Jr. The apparently fearless Wilkinson — who will display her […]
