Maybe they should start a Housewives franchise with all the villains that were fired starring Jill Zarin, Gretchen Rossi, Danielle Staub, Brandi and Carlton. And add a dash of crazy to that with KKB to round things out.

I'm loving this idea. I'd also add Adriana from Miami, Sheree from Atlanta, Aviva from NY, and Tamra from OC (not fired, but here's hoping). Real Housewives: Villains. I know that neither Bravo nor Andy want to admit it, but we're only 2 or 3 seasons away from the development of The Challenge for Bravolebrities.

Real Househusbands (and boyfriends) Eff, Marry, Kill?: Jim's edition

Inspired by folks in the OC forum, I thought there was endless entertainment to be found in comparing husbands. I imagine future versions will compare deadbeats (Slade, Brooks, Apollo, Peter Thomas), sexiest, famewhores (Peter Thomas, Joe Gorga, Simon from NY), what have you.

Battle Jim: Jim Edmonds vs Jim Bellino vs Jim Marchese

Edmonds, with an iron-clad prenup.

 

I figure they're all varying degrees of detestable, but at least Jim Edmonds seems to divorce his wives the quickest. Plus in low low lighting I think he'd be mildly appealing, physically. And like MissMel said, he'd be gone the most.

I'd marry Edmonds because the dude would be in St. Louis half the time, and when he was around, he'd be more concerned with me leaving  the house early so that he could get to happy hour than he would with spending any quality time with me. And I'd sleep with Marchese because, based on the RHoNJ rumor circuit, it seems like he loses a lot of his type-A personality in bed and becomes more, um, submissive.

Bravo! I had forgotten about the rumors of Jim Marchese's love of pegging and/or possible submission. I find that you are beyond wise in the game of horrible, horribler, horriblest or eff, marry, kill.

Satan Andy, if you or one of your minions is reading this, I would love a Vicki & Ramona Road Rules show. I swear I would tune in for Whoop it Up vs. Turtle Time every night. Crazy robot laser beam eyes vs. Head bobble of destruction.

I can hear it now. Ramona: "Oh my gawd, Vicki, you have no brain, no brain.

Vicki: "What do you know about it, Ramona? You don't work. I work. I was working. I have to work."

In general, I never have the desire to go to the Bravo site unless someone specifically points out something that MAY interest me. So, this something pricked my attention. My only interest in the voting is that Liar LuAnn( thank you, Sampson--from this forum) DOES NOT win.

I have just binge watched DC and frankly it was as glorious as I remembered!

I really wish they'd have brought it back; I love the politics aspect which is so different to the others Housewives franchises. Who you knew in politics was currency - not how big your house is and the size of your boobs. And I really enjoyed the non traditional social climbing of the HW compared to its counterparts.

Michaele and Tareq are my all time favourite HW couple. Don't get me wrong, I think they're loathsome, vile, pretentious people but Jesus, their delusions are fun to watch. With Sonja, for example, her split from reality makes me uncomfortable now but M&T had me cackling.

It baffles me how Bravo kept trying to make Miami happen but gave up so quickly on DC. I get that M&T were an issue with their garecrashing but surely they could have re-cast. It's not like they've never given shows a huge overhaul before. Overall, the cast was far more likeable and interesting than those bimbo's in Miami.

DC is what got me into the housewives! I saw the "party crashers" on the news and had to check it out! Little did I know this would lead me to watching an embarrassing amount of Real Housewives....

I loved DC, I'm bing watching it right now! It's actually my favorite of the Housewife shows. Loved how "undercover bitch" everyone was about their fights. Things rarely got heated, but lots of subtle digs. I think there may have been legal issues involved with not bringing it back.

I didn't really mind Tarque and Michaela. I mean, I thought they were vile people, but the didn't bug me as TV characters. Cat on the other hand needed to be introduced to a little American holiday called Slapsgiving. Cat, meet my hand. I felt like she was always complaining and struck me as a not terribly bright, spoiled, rich housewife who wanted to be much more accomplished and interesting than she was. I will say watching her fairy tale, second chance marriage explode before it even got started was interesting. Lydia's "top modeling agency in DC"...that's an escort service, right? We're all in agreement? Them was hookers?

Moving this over from OC because the contract negotiations are one of the few "behind the scenes" things I find really interesting:

That makes sense. I can see the contracts being contingent on cast members showing up to specific events and staying until they are dismissed or filming has wrapped. They probably have to do the end of year wrap party, x number of in town events, x number of trips, x number of in home shots, x number of talking heads, and so on. Bravo only pays people who agree to these terms. If you just want to hang around and film when you want, you don't get a check. On NYC I always thought that was the semantic argument Andy was having with Kelly over him "forcing" her to go to Scary Island. He likely told her if she didn't go she wouldn't have fulfilled her contract and wouldn't be paid. She thought of that as being forced, he thought of it as holding someone to their contract.

Loved the BH Uncensored!  

 

Minus Miami, I think all the cities in the Franchise should get one...on the top of my list right now Season's 1 & 2 of NJ, and it might be a long shot but DC, and you don't even have to do a specific Season for New York, all you need to say is two words:  Scary Island...That one trip needs/can have numerous specials devoted to it...

Miami - Ana was in a cooking competition show. Same attitude. Larissa and Scotty are divorcing.

DC - Micheala (how did she spell her name?) and the rocker are still together.  Neil Schon? Looks like a mini Bruce Springsteen.
