Real Housewives of DC Season Premier on Thursday, August 5, 2010 @9pm on Bravo!

Bravo’s “The Real Housewives” franchise presents a slice of life amongst affluent, educated women, some raising kids, some driving careers, all interacting with friends and family as determined by the unwritten social rules of the Beltway. With the franchise’s expansion to our nation’s capital, The Real Housewives of D.C. introduces five intriguing women whose relationships with each other, and with the city in which they live, are a compelling combination to explore the nexus of politics, society, and even race, as well as how the proximity to political power dictates where one fits within Beltway society.

These connected D.C. power players all have their pulse on the most important cultural events, political galas, gallery openings, and fundraisers in Washington society. They are: Mary Schmidt Amons, the true Washingtonian and granddaughter of radio and TV personality Arthur Godfrey; the mother hen and owner of D.C.’s top modeling agency, Lynda Erkiletian; feisty Brit Catherine Ommanney, married to a White House photographer; model and founder of D.C.’s America’s Polo Cup, Michaele Salahi who became the focus of media attention following the White House state dinner last November; and Harvard grad, active political fund-raiser, and philanthropist Stacie Scott Turner.

The Real Housewives of D.C. went into production shortly after the historic election and inauguration, reflecting D.C. almost as its own character in the series.

Bringing viewers inside the lives and homes of movers and shakers in the community, the D.C. housewives move comfortably from fundraisers and prominent events to discussing everything from issues about race to money and politics to relationships and high fashion.

Anyone planning on watching? :happytv:
 

I've already DVR'd it. :)

I've watched all the others so why not??

Yet another not-so-secret guilty pleasure show to add to my list. :blush:
 
Episode 1

WELCOME TO THE DISTRICT
Welcome to D.C., the most powerful city in America, where it takes more than money to impress people – it’s about political power. With the social season in full swing, Michaele’s Polo event caters to those who want to be close to it all, with attendees including the Ambassador of India, Michelle Jones and Republican Lobbyist, Edwina Rogers. As old rivalries cause Lynda to snub Michaele's Polo event, Mary struggles with the guest list for her birthday party. And Cat, the brash Brit and new girl in town, gets a crash course in public relations at Stacie's dinner party prepared by a celebrity chef.
 
The wives were on the Today show yesterday and the View today.

They did not like Michaele Salahi and were really giving it to her.

I can't wait for the premiere tomorrow night though. :surfweb:

THIS JUST IN ... :headache: :headache: :headache:


"Michaele Salahi vs. 'The View': Whoopi Goldberg Abused Me"
The Huffington Post.

Michaele Salahi and her husband will be LIVE on the TODAY Show Thursday morning to discuss what happened on The View on Wednesday. :headache:

Google the article using the above names ... the article has some foul language so I decided not to post it on the DIS.
 
Bumping up because I almost started a thread and found this one a couple pages back.

Just watched them on the Today Show. This should be a good one. One of the women said their show will be classier than the others :rolleyes:

And with the drama on the View before the show has even started? They are gonna get great ratings tonight.

Can't wait :thumbsup2
 
:wave2:

Yes, I will watch. Why not? I've seen all the others, though I gave up on Atlanta.
 
Michaele Salahi is clearly disliked by all of the other women. They mentioned today how she steals from charity work that she and her husband do and they are sue happy. Wonder if a lawsuit against Whoopi is in the works :rolleyes:

If "classier"=pompous assier, she's right.:rolleyes1
 
That's one that I don't think I'll be watching.. Saw the previews and doesn't look all that interesting..

I've got to say though, Orange County and NYC Housewives are positively tame compared to that NJ group.. LOL..:goodvibes

NJ seems down right dangerous!! :eek:

I normally have the View on every day - but must have missed that one..:confused3
 
I won't be watching this one the fact that the couple that did that at the White House...OUR White House can now go on to fame & fortune sickens & infuriates me asses should be in jail
 
I do NOT like Cat. I started out liking her, but by the end, I was sick of her.
Oh, and just because Bush RSVPd to your wedding, doesn't mean he sat down at his desk in the Oval Office and checked his calendar to see if he could work it in. I guarantee he never saw the invite. It was an assistant or intern who RSVPd.
These women are so full of themselves, it's disgusting. But the intro is dead on, these woman aren't about money like the other seasons...they are into the power and the name dropping. I feel bad for Obama that he is probably going to be name dropped in every episode.

Why don't they do a Dallas HW? That would be interesting. Who's with me?
