How many Real Housewives shows do we need? (1977, television, dance)

[NYTom]

I mean honestly, is there going to be one for every city in America?
Reality tv is so sickening. I would give anything to go back to tv's only having 13 channels.
It never lacked something to watch that was entertaining.

women love it. Its all they talk about at work. Never seen an episode myself. Its the new soap opra

There are real housewives and then there are "Real Housewives". They ain't the same!

So trashy, I agree with you 100%. I don't have cable. I have an antenna for local channels, and a Netflix and Hulu subscription. The cost of cable is outrageous and most of what you get is crap anyway.

None

I have to wonder if this franchise is coming to an end.

I stopped watching RHONJ because it is becoming a repetitive trainwreck, almost more pitiful than anything else.

I've only watched Miami enough to become familiar with that old lady....none of the other characters seem interesting.

LuAnn, who I once thought was interesting, has now become pathetic.

You know, that is SO true. I work in a big office and not one woman I know watches soap operas - but we all watch RHNJ, RHNY . . . Dance Mom's, etc.

Reality TV has taken the place of soap operas.

I can't stand to watch soap operas and I am tiring of ALL the RH so I'm glad my favorite primetime shows are returning!

"We" don't need any, of course, but I find the Beverly Hills & New York editions entertaining (although I haven't kept up with NY since S3). The other cities don't interest me but if people want to watch them, so be it. I don't understand it when people complain about reality shows "taking over" tv now - ever hear of a remote control? Between Netflix, dvds and channels like AMC, HBO, Showtime, BBC, etc. there has got to be more high-quality, non-reality television available than a person can watch in a lifetime.

Ever heard of changing the channels? The best "Housewives" series is Atlanta with out a doubt! I love the Travel Channel until they put on the guy who eats gross bugs!
Give me Anthony Bourdain!
