“Real Housewives Of Washington, D.C.” is “Masterpiece Theater”

A preview of the new Bravo show “Real Housewives of Washington, D.C.” has the housewives debating whether President Obama or President Bush is the “better man.”

Andy Cohen, Bravo’s senior vice president of original programming and development, aired the clip on “Watch What Happens Live” Monday night. Cohen’s live reaction to the D.C. housewives made one think he was watching live C-SPAN coverage of the Senate debating of campaign finance disclosure.

“D.C. housewives are so highbrow with all their fancy political debate, I almost didn’t know what they were talking about,” Cohen said of the “who is a better man?” debate.

None of the housewives who opined on the “better man” issue—real estate agent Stacie Scott Turner, stay-home mother Mary Schmidt Amons and British interior designer Catherine Ommanney—has any political experience.

To put a fine point on his lack of political knowledge, Cohen deemed the D.C. franchise “kinda like the Masterpiece Theater of Housewife shows.”

The series premieres August 5 at 9 p.m.

    What can I eat to make my skin healthier acne? I am skinny. 16yo 125-130lbs but I don’t eat much and I have acne. Not that bad but I think it’s from my lack of eating because I wash everyday but my face seems oily all the time. What can I eat and drink to make me look better. I started this diet 2 days ago tell me if it’s any good: grapefruit juice, water, pistachios, yogurt?

    Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

I hope i don???ê?èt have spyware or some thing. Does anybody know what the problem could possibly be?

    This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

    Hrmm that was weird, my comment got eaten. Anyway I wanted to say that it???ê?ès good to know that a person else also mentioned this as I had trouble finding the exact same info elsewhere. This was the 1st place that told me the answer.

  33. rijlessen on January 26, 2011 at 4:05 am

    There will be a lot off mothers and fathers how think the same about this. I’m gay, so i can’t be a father, but i think the same about it.

    Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

    Excellent website , I’ve discovered this insightful. A lot of helpful tips inside it. I’m really thinking about the information on overweight. As well as tried taking lipobind intended for cutting down fat ingestion? In any other case, do check it out for. It’s effective to me. I’ve resulted in a connection to. Thanks.
