Bravo - An Open Post


OK Bravo,
So you and I have had a pretty good relationship these many years. However, lately, you're just getting sloppy, inattentive and you've been just shoving things down my throat I don't like.

Case in point, NYC Prep. There's a reason that Gossip Girl is popular. It's NOT REAL. It's a fictional drama, starring incredibly beautiful 30 year old teens who do incredibly hurtful things to one another. This, what you're hawking, is just plain wrong. One, you couldn't find one attractive wealthy teen in Manhattan? Two, you couldn't find one with a redeeming quality? Aspiring pop star? Not good enough. Pseudo-albino brunette....also, not good enough. And don't get me started on the douche whose initials signify Political Correctness, but whose behavior signifies an angry, gay, but in denial teen.


Second strike, also in the category of "Holy, Unlikable Reality Show Participants" is Miami Social. I saw two of these people before. One being Hardy from Big Brother. The other is that chick from The Apprentice. Everyone else, from the one guy with the horrible eye-blinking twitch to the sweaty gay to the totally gay former model, now total bitch to people are awful...NOT WATCHABLE.

Tips for Redemption:

1) Kelly Rowland, as much as I like her, ban from the second season of The Fashion Show, which I not-so-secretly hope is never made. Isaac, the fat lady (aka your reflection) is calling - take a bow.

2) Kim's weave must be finally ripped from her head in the second season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

3) Expose The Real Housewives of New Jersey for the mafiosas that they truly are. C'mon, really. Paying over $100,000 in cash for furniture shopping, that happens? As in "...watch what happens?" I think not, unless you sucked Don Corleone off many a time.

4) Get Project Runway back from Lifetime. I love Lifetime, but it's not meant for reality shows...what will Valerie Bertinelli, Tori Spelling, Susan Lucci, Tracey Gold and Shannen Doherty do?

5) Bring back Work Out, at least those unlikeable bastards and bitches had nice bodies to ogle unlike another show I'm thinking of (see: Miami Social). And actually, I take it back. I liked some of them...and hi, had a relationship with them from a few years with them.

6) Find a way to keep Kathy Griffin's mom from leaving this earth. She is GOLD, and she is loved. Kathy is liked, but that woman, loved. OK, I love Kathy, but her mom with a glass of white wine from a box...love a little more.


OK, I'm done venting now, but Bravo TV, get it together. Also, I get that Mr. Cohen is a higher up, but he is not a celebrity, he can host the reunion shows, but get over yourself, you're the brains behind the operation, not the talent.

Sincerely,
Ryan Kelly
