‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ preview: Joe and Teresa Giudice’s bathtub time

Considering that we really don’t want to spend that much time talking about that ugly fight between Joe Giudice and Joe Gorga, this “Real Housewives of New Jersey” preview article is going to be focused on something very different, but also appropriate to everything else that we have seen on the show as of late: The comedy!

Specifically, the sneak peek below is unintentionally hilarious for a number of reasons. For one, did Teresa and her husband tell a room service guy to come into the bathroom while they weren’t wearing any clothes? Maybe they were, but we really didn’t want to make that close of an investigation as to find out. (There’s really only so much of that we wanted to watch.)

Then, you also had Teresa somehow thinking that Joe was some sort of absolute stud muffin for trying to beat up her brother in front of television cameras, which we also don’t completely understand. “Defending your wife’s honor” is extremely important, and of course everyone should advocate that, but what about all of those claims that violence is not the answer? If you are looking to “The Real Housewives” franchise for life lessons, then odds are that there is something very wrong with society. Heck, after watching this video, you may need to look at some pictures of cute puppies or something to keep the images from burning too severely into your brain.

Just in case you do for whatever reason want to see something a little bit more dramatic (and something focusing more squarely on the fight between the two Joes), take a look at the video here for something more in the vein of direct reaction.
