In this week’s A Basement Affair recap, I jokingly noted that “the cycle of not being there to make friends starts at home,” in reference to Melody saying that she heard Dana’s mom said that she was going to beat Dana up if Dana didn’t beat Melody up. My hunch is proven in the clip above, in which Dana talks to her mom on the phone (“If I had an anger problem, I woulda been f***ed her up!”) and her mom at one point tells her, “You’re not there for them…you’re not there for them! You’re not trying to make a friend. You don’t need to make a friend.”
As “I’m not here to make friends” is my favorite reality TV cliche of all time, I can’t tell you how thrilled Dana’s constant invoking of the phrase make me. She is the I’m not here to make friendsest contestant ever. I especially love the nature/nurture angle that her mother has forged. So complicated and nuanced! These people are a gift to reality TV.

I think Dana’s mom is wrong and that Dana should in fact be making friends because only a friend will be able to love her enough to tell her she how badly she needs to see a hairdresser.
She’s right, she doesn’t need to make friends with anyone on the show, she just needs to make friends with a good hairdresser.
wow she is nuts!
haha my favorite for sure!! Team Dana!
yes i agree Team Dana.. is she blind to the fact that she is always mad at someone? but i find her quite entertaining. my wife cracks up at her so bad! she is our favorite we are rooting for her!
she is the realest girl on the show hands down
I’m not a fan of Dana’s, but my husband watched the conversation of Melody and Frank over and over again – did she use the “n” word to describe Dana’s behavior? If someone knows what was bleeped out, please clue me in – very disappointing if that was Melody’s chosen adjective.
thank you PeteGas…I was beginning to think I was the only one who noticed the big huge oil stain, I mean roots showing on Dana’s head.
these other girls are just mad she keeps it a hundred and Frank aint man enough for her.. she need a man like me that knows how to handle her crazy #_*~+()_+)_$!+~ i like them feisty lol
love the hair flip! you go girl
Sharon and PeteGas have about the hair, ok!!! She’s got dishwater brown hair up to her ears and the rest is blonde. It’s one thing to have roots, but these are not roots! This is her ENTIRE HEAD. Anyway, good for her, she’s focused. Maybe her Mom is just kidding about beating people up. Maybe she means it metaphorically. I think she’s a big bully.
So are we the only ones that watch this show? I mean, it’s not in heavy rotation on Vh-1. All I ever see is Celebrity Bootcamp, Fantasia, Let’s talk about Pep, but I rarely ever see this show except on Sunday nights when it’s suppossed to be on. WTF?
god she reminds me of tiffany pollard and sister paterson!
dana seemed like a nice girl at first, but now that renee and annie are no longer there, she’s freakin crazy.
ok so Dana and her mom are completely crazy and nuts. they are bad )*&@+)!`^~)`_$( i love them! i wish i had a mom cool like that!
hahahahahahaha am i in the twilight zone?!!!!!
it’s very fun to laugh at… but i feel so bad for this young lady. she is just out of control due to bizarre parenting skills. i would never demand my daughter to do such things. i feel like there is some reasons for her and her mother’s logic so i will not judge. who knows what they have been through in their personal lives. i am just speechless at this relationship. i can’t even believe it. i have seen so much and never came across something so strange as this.
I think Dana is insane she needs a serious reality check, she needs to stop being so fake and grow up. She most certainly has an anger problem.HELLOO!! her mom sounds like that’s where she gets it from. She is just inmature and needs to go home. She is not right for Frank.
Dana looks like a man, acts lik an idiot and is a jealous $$*`&#^^)*`~(^~%$ She needs to go ! and her dragqueen face! ew!
two words for Dana- white trash!
