VH1’s reality series ‘Mob Wives‘ was scandalous enough to rank #2 in the cable TV ratings for New Year’s day behind only E! TV’s ‘Kim & Kourtney Take NY‘. The Staten Island based Mob Wives features feisty, heavily botoxed and cosmetically enhanced women with ties to notorious mob figures (real mob figures, not the imitation ones that rappers pretend to be).
If you thought urban reality series such as ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta‘ and ‘Basketball Wives‘ were bad, wait until you see the preview of next week’s Mob Wives. There is a sustained and brutal fight between Karen Gravano and Drita D’Avanzo that clocks in at over 4 minutes of hair-pulling and butt kicking. I still don’t know what the fight was about.
Drita says, “You know what happens when you come to my house? You get hit with a wrench across your f*cking throat. So you’re welcome.”
