"The Real Housewives" franchise - Bravo

Pick your location - Beverly Hills, New Jersey, New York, Miami, Orange County or Atlanta - and you'll find all the decadence, adultery, fighting and self-indulgence you can expect from any other soap. Unfortunately, a lack of scripting also means lots of stupid comments, tacky bragging and label whoring, but that's what you get with so-called reality.
