Mob Wives

[ShortestStraw]

Does anybody watch this Trainwreck on VH1? I thought the first order of business in the mob was to never talk about the mob?

I watched it a couple of times. It's the most hilarious new sitcom I've seen.

I can't even with this show. I seriously hate myself while I watch it. My brother said Renee looks like the personification of PMS. He's totally right.

[ZoMyGoddess!]

i knocked myself out with my remote just to escape from this show...

NJ housewives on the other hand,... THAT i watch.

[deeply shaded]

That part about her telling her kids that their dad has been at work for 8 years? Yeah. That part.

[TheFavoriteDaughter]

I can't help but watch it. It's on right when I go to bed. For some reason I love Drita. That voice...

[White trash bitchy blonde]

I watch it. I don't get it though because I thought all mob stuff was on the down low. I mean, Karen and her family were in the WPP and now she's on national television? I would have thought with her dad bein Sammy 'the bull', there would still be hits out on all of them. Seems like a huge security risk to me.

Also, Renee irritates me because she is soooo damn dramatic. The one guy made a comment to her that yeah, wasnt so nice but she calls "Junior" to come deal with it. Plus Im so sick and tired of Karen sayin she's 'gangster'.

STFU.



But I still keep watching.

Sammy the Bull is back in jail for being in charge of an ecstasy ring in Arizona.

Sammy the Bull is back in jail for being in charge of an ecstasy ring in Arizona.

That's what I read but then wouldnt the rest of that family still be under protection? I know they all had to change their identities and all that and I think Karen was involved in the ecstast stuff too along with her mother. I thought I read that somewhere.

I mean hell, if I was in a mob family and people were out for my family, I wouldnt be all FUCK YEAH VH1, COME TO MEEEEE!


Also, where the fuck do these bitches get their money for these nice ass houses, jewelery and cars?? Are these guys supplying them somehow with money? I got confused because Karen told one of the women that Renee said she couldnt be around Karen because Karen's dad would stop supporting her.

A vicious catfight broke out during a Sunday lunch held by the mafia princesses of Mob Wives.
The US reality TV show, which makes Jersey Shore look like tea with the queen, follows the lives of four women from Staten Island, New York who are all from notorious mob backgrounds or have mobster husbands in jail.
Brawl: The stars of Mob Wives got caught up in a vicious catfight over Sunday lunch
Renee Graziano, Carla Facciolo, and Karen Gravano held a lunch to 'calmly talk about their issues' but it soon exploded into screaming, hair pulling and grappling on Sunday night's show.
'You wanna get up in my f***ing face,' shrieked Carla as Renee squared up to her.
Carla then pushed Renee in the face which led to a tussle on the floor.
Getting heated: Renee Graziano and Carla Facciolo had planned to talk 'calmly' about their issues
'I never imagined that I would have a screaming hair-pulling match over a guy,' said Renee after the fight was over and the women had made friends again.
Renee Graziano is the daughter of Anthony 'The Little Guy' Graziano, boss of the infamous Bonanno crime family.
Drita D'avanzo's husband Lee is serving time for bank robbery and drug charges while Carla Facciolo, plans to divorce her husband, Joseph Ferragamo who is banged up for stock fraud.
Nasty: The women screamed and pulled each other's hair
Karen Gravano, 38, is the daughter of Sammy 'Bull' Gravano, the notorious mobster who took down John Gotti and the Gambino crime family.

Karen recently returned to Staten Island after living with her father in the witness protection program for many years. She is currently penning a memoir, which St. Martin's Press has bought for six figures.

That part about her telling her kids that their dad has been at work for 8 years? Yeah. That part.

I loved that part too...I feel like this is a comedy reality show:)

[angelaiscaustic]

We just need to sink Staten Island.

Does "the mob" still exist? I never hear anything about them. I was surprised when this show came on. I guess they might still exist, but not like the good old days when they used to kill each other in the streets on the regular and stuff.

[White trash bitchy blonde]

I thought there was a bust not long ago where a ton of mob guys were brought down. I think that was also mentioned in one of the tapings.

Here's the link:

I remember hearing something about it on the news but didn't get really into it. I always thought it was interesting the way the mob seems to work, I mean they will kill a person for not giving you the right respect but still make sure to kiss their mother's and have Sunday dinner's with the family or just the whole loyalty thing.

In reality, I have no idea what Im talking about, Im basing all my opinions off the Godfather movies because I swear that's how they all work, right?

[deeply shaded]

Yeah, I guess you're right. They did talk about that in the show. The article I read did say "The feds arrested almost the entire leadership of the fading Colombo crime family" so I guess the Colombos aren't doing so well, huh?

[White trash bitchy blonde]

I guess not. I wonder if the insider rules have changed, like back then, I thought the mob revolved more around like racketeering, gambling and knocking off trucks. Now, it's aimed more at drugs and prostitution.

I wonder what the mob code really is......wonder if google knows.....LOL

Ten Commandments
In November 2007 Sicilian police reported to have found a list of "Ten Commandments" in the hideout of mafia boss Salvatore Lo Piccolo. They are thought to be guidelines on how to be a good, respectful and honourable mafioso.[114]

1. No one can present himself directly to another of our friends. There must be a third person to do it.
2. Never look at the wives of friends.
3. Never be seen with cops.
4. Don't go to pubs and clubs.
5. Always being available for Cosa Nostra is a duty - even if your wife is about to give birth.
6. Appointments must absolutely be respected.
7. Wives must be treated with respect.
8. When asked for any information, the answer must be the truth.
9. Money cannot be appropriated if it belongs to others or to other families.
10. People who can't be part of Cosa Nostra: anyone who has a close relative in the police, anyone with a two-timing relative in the family, anyone who behaves badly and doesn't hold to moral values.

Also, they arent supposed to do certain crimes like kidnapping because it causes to much public exposure but it does happen, just rarely. They also don't approve of mugging or burglary which Im kinda suprised about.

Ugh, Renee is such drama. I can't stand anyone that says crap like, "Don't you know who I am". Get over it.

And what was that she did to her face? Microdermabrasion? She was killing me with that.

Yeah the times where she says that stuff irritates me too, like it's a plus for someone to brag that their father was a crime boss that had people murdered or murdered them himself?

I was just reading where some of the murder victims by the mob were commenting that they felt the show was a slap in the face and that these bitches were just disgusting and should be ashamed to call their fathers, fathers.
That's another thing, how the hell do these women sit there and go on about their day and not think about that? Or maybe they do, I dunno. Im fascinated by it all.

[Justice]

Karen is the only one I can stand outta all of them. Renee and her damn crazy eyes and Drita thinking she is so gangster.

[once_again]

I think Drita's attractive but until she opens her mouth. Her taking pride in "kicking ass" is dumb to me. Although, I think it's funny when her veins start popping out everywhere when she goes crazy.

Oh, I think she's pretty. But you're exactly right, it all goes out the window when she opens her mouth. I hate when girls think they're all tough like that.

[g r ee n ey e s]

My boss says I remind him of Drita!!

But, I am gangster, soo..

[angelaiscaustic]

Drita is my favorite although her saying Albanians don't get involved in organized crime is beyond lulzy.

Drita is my favorite although her saying Albanians don't get involved in organized crime is beyond lulzy.

my old boss was from albania. her ex was harrassing her, put a GPS on her car, slashed her tires, made rumors about her, etc. her albanian friends threatened to kill him and put his body in one of the pillars of a new skyscraper they are currently building in the city. if that shit ain't gangsta, i don't know what else is.
