‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ preview: First look at Teresa Giudice, ‘Guilt Trip’

Let us start this “Real Housewives of New Jersey” story with some pretty important news for everyone who is curious: There is no new episode Sunday. Much like other cable networks (see: HBO), the network is opting to not air a new episode of the series this weekend due to Labor Day. They realize that there would be a smaller amount of viewers around, since Sunday is basically like a neutered Saturday for this holiday weekend.

When the show comes back on September 7, though, you can definitely expect fireworks and one of the most dramatic episodes yet. This will delve deeper into Teresa and Joe Giudice’s court case, and brings you to an important time where Teresa may start to work towards a plea deal. (All of this has happened already in real time, and we are waiting on sentencing.)

You can see some further details about this episode in the synopsis below, given that there are a few other stories that you may want to track in here, as well:

“As news spreads about a possible plea deal in Teresa’s court case, Dina and Melissa plan a surprise getaway to cheer their friend up in her most desperate time. Meanwhile, Amber and Nicole’s fragile reconciliation takes an unwanted detour when Amber starts texting nasty insults to Nicole’s boyfriend Bobby. Teresa and her husband Joe make a legal decision that will decide their fate and change their lives forever.”

We don’t mean to offend Amber or Nicole here, but let’s be honest for the moment: Is anyone really that interested in this story given what else is going on in this episode? The Giudice headlines have dominated even on sites that do not regularly cover this show.
