Guilty Pleasures {TV}

BRAVO is keeping me busy for sure. With summer approaching, I'll be addicted to all things BRAVO.

I am loving Sweet Home Oklahoma. Pumps is a riot. The glove!!!!! Have you seen it? It airs on Monday nights.
Deep in the Bible belt, amid cattle, tornadoes and pump jacks, Jennifer Welch, Josh Welch, Lee Murphy, and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan proudly embrace—but unabashedly stand out from—their idyllic hometown. No feelings are spared when it comes to approaching burning issues, amongst themselves or with the world at large. Through their characteristic off-kilter perspective, they find humor confronting the white-picket-fence-meets-reality facts of life. Challenging the conventions of conservative society and showing an alternative, outrageous side to the tony enclave of Nichols Hills, their unique friendships hilariously reveal that the daily triumphs and struggles of small-city life are more wild, fun and memorable than meets the eye.

I am already stoked for the return of Southern Charm on Monday nights as well as Real Housewives of New York City, one of my favorites. "Money can't buy you class."

I am also looking forward to Southern Charm: Savannah premiering in May.

What are your TV guilty pleasures?

BRAVO pleasures, y'all!

This Week in TV...

What am I looking most forward to this week?

Reality TV, of course!!! Starting tonight, my bro-mance with Mr. Andy Cohen continues. And I am happy to report that Watch What Happens Lives starts its 5 nights a week run (Sundays-Thursdays at 10:00 PM Central). Make mine a Scotch and Ginger Ale, please!

Andy Cohen (Executive VP of Development & Talent at BRAVO) sits down for 5 nights a week with guests from the network's hit shows and other stars of TV and movies. Some of my favorites are The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Beverly Hills, New Jersey, OC, and Miami. I also love Million Dollar Decorators, The Millionaire Matchmaker, It's a Brad, Brad World, Anything Bethanny, Flipping Out, and The Rachel Zoe Project.

On Watch What Happens Live, Andy chats with guests about what just transpired on the air and in pop culture. The live show which has a lot of viewer interaction through texts, facebook posts, phone calls, emails, and tweets includes lively debates and passionate discussions. My DVR will be busy 5 nights a week!
