"Basketball Wives" (8 p.m. EST on VH1) season premiere
In season four of "Basketball Wives" the two new ladies alter the ever-changing landscape and dynamic among these women. Newcomer Kesha Nichols survived every girl's worst nightmare, having her engagement broken off by her ball-playing fiance via email shortly before their wedding. Kenya Bell is in the process of finalizing a divorce from a basketball star and is one of the most notorious and controversial wives in the league, whose infamous reputation is well-known by the other wives. Shaunie O'Neal is on the path to establishing herself as a business mogul. Evelyn Lozada and Jennifer Williams' 12-year friendship is in a precarious position; will it recover from last season's fracture? Strong-willed Tami Roman continues to be a force to be reckoned with both socially and now in business. Royce Reed and Suzie Ketcham attempt to navigate uncharted waters as new chapters open in their lives.

No doubt in my mind about Mike gayness. He'll feel a lot better after he comes out! And, it'll provide Vinny & Paulie some space for their love to become more physical.

OK, I got sent over here by a link suggesting I'd be surprised by all the things I didn't know about the Situation. I thus anticipated discovering he was a Proust scholar, loved knitting and appreciated the raclette variations of the Haute-Savoie. Instead it turns out he likes GTL, hot girls and fighting. So uhm, like what's the big whoop???
