Mob Wives versus Love and Hip Hop: Who wins?

With NFL Sundays over for the season, Sunday afternoon television pickings were slim.

Vh-1s “Mob Wives” and “Love and Hip Hop” are both “train wrecks” as one fan put it. But one is a bit less of a hot mess than the other.

The “Mob Wives” are a shameless pack. They’re a lot like Oxygen’s “Bad Girls Club.” Only fifty years older. They fight in clubs, Versace dresses and Gucci heels. OSHA rules and workplace harassment don’t apply to them. They’re rewarded when they beat up co-workers.

The reality girlfriends on "Love and Hip Hop" are a bit different. They’re representatives of an African American bourgeoisie sect. A glam sect, third generation Cosby kids minus Ivy League degrees or respectable parents.

With the exception of two or three, the Hip Hop Love crew has its fair share of talented entrepreneurs.

It would be nice if during the confessionals, the cast of "Love and Hip Hop:" changed their clothes. Watching Chrissy in the same low cut periwinkle blue dress and Kimbrella in the same gypsy purple is a cheap ploy to attract male viewers. Or to get Chrissy married.

"Love and Hip Hop" isn’t dependent on the residential city of its characters to contribute to the show’s drama. But the busy streets of New York and New Jersey lend the "Mob Wives" grit. Coupled with those rough New Jersey hawkish accents, a "Mob Wives" marathon of more than 2 episodes should be outlawed by the FCC.

Male viewers aren’t watching "Mob Wives" because its subjects are physically attractive. Nooo. They’re watching Drita and the Gang because their one- liners make great Twitter Feeds.

The "Love and Hip Hop" cast run from the cops because a minute in jail is just not cool. The "Mob Wives" are one relative away from jail. Or they are getting bailed out of jail. All the day long.

Big Ang is like the Godmother, Drita says. But Big Ang isn't easy on the eyes. Or ears. "Love and Hip Hop’s" Mama Jones isn’t easy on the eyes or ears either. She’s ultra urban, crack–cocaine frail and her voice rivals that of her hip hop rapping son Jimmy.

But at least Mama Jones knows the golden rule of aging. Older women always go lighter with their hair color. They leave the jet black hair dye to girls Kim Kardashian’s age. They heed this golden rule of aging because their stylists aren't afraid of them.

Mob Wife Karen is crazy. Psychotic. But Karen’s psychotic has no game.

"Love and Hip Hop’s" Season 2 character Erica is crazy. But she’s got mad game. Way to go to get your rear end beat at a restaurant and then call the cops.

But hosting a party and drinking it up with your girls while your nemesis is screaming on you? Classic.
