I've started watching The Rachel Zoe Project this season and find that I really like the show and I like Rachel Zoe. Now I wish I had been watching it all along.

This morning, they showed 2 episodes of Fashion Hunters --- I hope this means the show is coming back!

WWHL is fun. I like Andy and love that he has guest bartenders. Last night was Sharon Needles. LOL!

Kim Zolciak's show...she is utter trash. I suspect if her show did well in the ratings, they'd make more programming like that.

Top Chef. I like it, but not some of the changes to the show recently. I wish they'd do away with last chance kitchen, seems rigged.

I like Rachel Zoe now, she seems a bit more human now that she has a kid.

When I re-subscribed to DirecTV they read a survey which asked which channels I watch most.

I realized after saying "Ummmm - Bravo" how embarassing that was.

So then I said PBS and AMC.

Which wasn't really true - I actually watch E and Bravo more than anything else.

Don't you all like Brad of "It's a Brad Brad . . . World?" He seems sweet, and his relationship with his "husband" seems healthy and nice.

I like Brad; he definitely seems like a nice guy. Why is his show only 1/2 hour?

.

I was stunned to hear she got her own show, after she and her hubby yelled at the crew and walked off from being filmed on the Atl housewives. I have no clue why anyone would watch her, her face is whats shown under the definition of trashy.


I like the Medicine and Shrink shows. I love Greg the shrink, he is so human and open. The medicine wives are just a train wreck, but thats why I like that one. lol I dont know what channel it is, but heard they have a new show called " Pregnant and Dating", now thats about as silly as they come. Who'd care?

OMG.... Just saw a Bravo commercial for what they're calling a "documentary" about the first year of married life for 3 couples. A "documentary"?? Reallly, Andy????

Andy Cohen, love you dear. HOWEVER, a "documentary" is something that presents facts and information without editorializing (and we all know how Bravo LOVES to edit!) and is meant to be educational. Also, a typical documentary has a narrator.

I guess they're trying to find a new word for "reality show" since everyone has finally realized (15 years later) that there is no such thing as a "reality show".

I haven't had any use for Bravo for at least 10 years, other than the reruns of The West Wing. I loved its performing arts programming. Now that that's over, Bravo doesn't even figure into my radar; just another voyeuristic "reality" channel.

The Housewives have run thier course, IMO

This - but do they still do Actor's Studio? Or is that on Bio? I used to enjoy it but haven't seen it lately. I enjoy Top Chef (especially last season which included much less drama). I used to watch the Housewives from time to time but lately - geez, how much televised well-dressed women screaming at each other about nonsense can a person listen to? I reached my saturation point on that quite awhile ago. The shark has jumped on those.

Back when the first housewives show began on network tv and was a big hit, it wasn't long before Bravo latched on to the concept and came up wit the OC housewives. I'd not expected to watch it, but, got sucked in one weekend when a marathon ran. Vicki really did resemble Miss Piggy. It has to have been noticed by those who chose her for the show. To think it has all ended up with the doctor's wives is amazing. It has to be the worst show they've come up with. I tried to watch an episode, but, couldn't really get interested. I surprised myself by ending up liking "Shahs of Sunset." Not sure if it's indicative of my viewing habits sinking lower and lower. I know there was a time, I wouldn't even know what was on Bravo, E or any other along that line.

Yep Andy is grasping for some show to take them to the top again but all the housewives shows are stupid screaming women showing no class. That was the original draw to RHOC to see how the rich lived, now they are all a bunch of back stabbing, screamin,g pretend to be rich dummies.

When Andy was doing the reunion show for Vanderpump Rules and he focused in on the sex lives of these 20 somethings. He really over stepped the bounds when he got so personal with one couple I'm sure they didn't know what would happen if they didn't answer their boss. Saw an ugly side of Andy changed my opinion of him right then he'd do anything for shock & ratings.

I love Top Chef all cooking actually but last chance kitchen is ruining that show and the way they did the final between the 2 chefs was wrong too.

I'm not a fashion person so I don't watch any of those.

The new shows with doctors not tuning in.

The spin-offs of housewives I've tuned in to get the flavor but don't like Kandi's, Kim's is disgusting with her foul mouth constantly. I wonder if she realized just how uneducated using it makes her look? The wedding one was a big bore.

I use to like Andy but after the Vanderpump reunion I see him differently now some what childish on WWHL he wants to act like a frat boy with real grown up guests. So I barely even tune into it now usually watch who is on then decide if I'll watch it.

With failed RH of Miami, DC & Dallas (didn't quite make it to airing did it?)he knows that shark really jumped the tank.
