Um, can we get a TLC convention, too?
How can you get cast on a Bravo TV show?
The answer is that it’s possible for you to, but, it’s pretty complicated.
For example,Below Decktypically swaps out at least a few cast members each season, sometimes more.
However, most crew members who appear onBelow Deckhave worked on a yacht before, just FYI.
Take theReal Housewivesfranchise, for instance.
As theBravo TVwebsite states, the web link has something for everyone.
Where else can you watch so many diverse programs?
Clearly Bravo TV values women’s' perspectives, and their ratings show that it’s working for them.
They’re just outnumbered by the women in this case.
AsThe Washington Postreported, Cohen was instrumental in bringing reality television to Bravo.
“His own human nature is a great deal of what makes him a superstar.”
So if there’s a “father” of Bravo TV, it’s Andy Cohen.
That’s something to be proud of, according to Lauren Zalaznick, Chairman of NBCUniversal Entertainment.
she told the magazine.
“It’s beyond incredible.
It’s absurd.”
It just goes to show that there really isn’t a Bravo TV without theReal Housewives.
But for Andy Cohen, it was important to be honest about what happened.
“We talked endlessly,” he toldThe Hollywood Reporter.
“In the end, we decided to capture what happened as sensitively as we could.”
Yes, it features real people instead of actors, andyes,real life drama happens on camera.
“We started meeting with producers to discuss storylines,” she explained.
“I started getting anxiety thinking about all the forced drama that does happen on occasion.”
However,Real Housewivesproducer Doug Ross denied that allegation.
“The audience could sniff that a mile away, so why even bother?”
He also shared that the castisencouraged to plan events with the other women, but no plotting is required.
Certainly there have been some seriouslyawkward kisses in reality TV history.
But according to Cohen, it was a success.
And back then, the series was a pretty big deal.
Since then, the worldhascome such a long way, thanks in part to that series.
“Being out in 2003 was political.
You being out was saying something,” he explained.
“Whereas now it’s not really as big of a deal.”
For Cohen, getting the inside scoop on celebrities for Bravo TV audiences is truly thrilling.
As Cohen oftentimes asks questions submitted by viewers at home, this makes sense.
He then went on to describe his talk show as “Playboy After DarkmeetsWayne’s WorldmeetsLarry King Live.”
And for Bravo TV, award nominations are kind of expected for many of their original shows.
And while they ultimately didn’t take home big wins (viaE!
News), as any actor can tell you, it truly is an honor just to be nominated.
Previously, Bravo was also nominated for twoEmmyawards, in 2012 and 2013, both times for itsTop Chefprogramming.
At the end of the day, Bravo TV does well for itself.
Bravo TV also canceledKathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List,Hey Paula, andNYC Prep, asBustlereported.
