NOTE: For some reason, this post from MAY, 2011 was getting attention today, February 5, 2012… NINE months later!
Andy does have some interesting comments during his interview… most interesting is that Miss Andy is adamant re his knowledge of the Bravo audience. Andy says that the Bravo audience is the most intelligent. Yes, Andy… the Bravo audience is intelligent, which is why they can spot scripted, manipulated television. And they don’t like it!
Andy Cohen, executive VP at Bravo, talks with Tom Keene on Bloomberg TV about Bravo’s programming and his plan to expand from reality to scripted TV. And, Andy’s plugging Bravo’s ‘Platinum Hit’… if he has to do the plugging, you know it’s gonna bomb.
Andy’s says that Bravo’s audience can smell anything that is “insincere, phony or fake.” Yes, and Bravo’s audience can also smell ‘producer-induced scenarios’ on the Housewives shows a mile away.
Andy’s Housewives’ ‘reality’ shows may as well be scripted as the ‘producer-induced’ scenes in each show have become more and more obvious to viewers…
Fine! Go scripted! I still got Jersey Shore, Jerseylicous, and lest we forget Basketball Wives? Hey, They’ll cut a Beotch!
You don’t watch Mob Wives? With the exception of the producer’s tool Karen, that’s some pretty spontaneous stuff.
AOM, Why yes I do! And I also watch, “Bad Girls Club” Shh! Don’t tell anybody! My reputation is bad enough!
You and me both sister. Heck, I still watch the Real World which, to my mind, started all this reality stuff. And don’t get my started on Big Brother….
I quit Bad Girls Club after Tanisha’s season. I figured it couldn’t get better and, well, the lack of any focus got kind of annoying. Do they even pretend that the girls are going to the house to try to mend their bad girl ways?
AOM, Oh Yea, Big Brother…one of my faves.
click click and AOM I am a big brother fanatic also.
Whoa whoa whoa did yall see the big power move outa shelly tonight? let the games begin!
Hey AOM! Don’t forget the great movie “Reality Bites” which lead to the Real World which lead into Reality TV. Now its all I watch… I can’t sit through a sitcom anymore.
My daughter and I love Jerseylicious – but this season it seems they are getting more “scripted” – I can’t stand that doofiss Olivia is dating – talk about brain dead
Vicky, I agree. Love Olivia! I’m shocked that they bought back Daria? Is that her name? She sure did humble herself at the reunion show. She made Olivia so miserable last year. No! Don;t care for Olivia’s boyfriend. He looks likes Tamara’s Ellie.
How does Miss Andy know how any of us feel? Has anyone ever gotten a comment through? Duh?
he prolly has some “boy toy” read all the blogs for him
Anyone who watches any of this garbage should see a shrink.
okie doke
Bob…why so anrgry…telling me and others we should see a shrink, especially if it is the doc with no soxs leave me with a very puzzeled look apon my face. No one is asking you to watch or comment.
I am addicted to all of the real housewives and I know that none are scripted, whether you believe it or not. How can somebody make up all of these crazy fights and script everything? It’s impossible.
Click click you have some of the best photos….what was your kitty’s helmut made of?…it made me laugh out loud.
Lizzie, A melon rind of some kind…I think. Today it is a football helmet. GooooooooNASCAR!
It’s a lime. I’ve seen that cutie before; which gives you an idea of how little the kitten must be. Awe! Adorable click!
