SSDH (Same Shit Different...Housewives)

The Real Housewives" on Bravo TV started strong with the first season in Orange Country (now in its 6th season), and continued on good footing with New York, but slowly is heading into the boring department. Given Beverly Hills was a fantastic season and I'll watch New Jersey for the mafioso factor, but Atlanta and DC were absolutely awful. What sparks this somewhat random blog post you may ask, the delay of New York being aired due to new season, Miami. When I heard there might be a new season, I was excited... but MIAMI ... really Bravo? Although I always love to see the plush real estate, the previews appear to be same old housewives bullS#!T. Real Housewives has now even decided to expand to Europe, they just finished filming "Athens" and are currently casting for Sanbanks (ritzy penisula in UK) and Israel.

Here are the seasons I am most looking forward to and why...

1. The Real Housewives of Dallas
Reason: Everything is bigger in Texas
Cast: Southern Belles & Cowboys
Drama: Ex Miss America's struggle with no pageants to preform in, Daddy's oil refinery has a leak
Real Estate: Castles, Ranches







2. The Real Housewives of Boston
Reason: The northeast needs some love too. Plus, city on the water allows for many yachting activities.
Cast: Harvard Alums, & Argyle Wearing Preppies
Drama: Who works harder and has the best educated children
Real Estate: Brownstones, Apartments, 2nd house in the suburbs, vacation homes on cape/islands





 3. The Real Housewives of  Greenwich
Reason: Old Money is a different lifestyle than New Money
Cast: Wealthy Blueblood descendants of the nation's most important people in history
Drama: All of the women attend a polo match where secrets are revealed
Real Estate: Old Colonial McMansions




Come on Bravo, spice it up and make things interesting instead of new locations with same old plot. Try something new for once! The difference between my suggestions and current Bravo is that almost everyone on the shows has new money. I want to see an old money show down. A battle of who was here first and the social hierarchy.

  1. Real Housewives of Boston, only so their kids could be in a spinoff entitled "Boston Prep". We all know New England prep schools have so much dramatic potential.
