[Bravo needs a redo.]
Jul. 15th, 2022 06:50 pmBravo(and reality TV) has an issue.Well, several issues if we are being honest and Imma unpack them.
Physical/verbal abuse/racism :This is less the Ho’wves and more The Real World but it’s certainly true that there is a gang mentality on a lot of those shows which goes completely unchecked(Andy C***n might not be paying attention to what’s going on behind the scenes but people who are invested in the shows DO and there has been call(for a while) to get Andy the fuck out of there.
Yes, he plays favourites. Yes, he ignores issues that are allowed to keep going and affect the shows a lot. It’s started bleeding into other Bravo shows too. They deliberately hire people who they know will not get along(talking about the Below Deck franchise specifically right now). It took a LOT for certain things(specifically racism) to be addressed by the captain of the ship and also by Andy C***n.Andy has been called out by black women on his Housewives show(most famously and recently NeNe Leakes). Basically, you call him out on that shit and he’s gonna act like he doesn’t care. There have been multiple petitions trying to get him fired and have someone who is more..sympathetic . Seriously, how bad is it going to have to get before they fire him?
What the Housewives do when they aren’t on the show is really none of my business but it has come to light that a current Housewife was involved in human trafficking.She trafficked a couple of very well known people. I guess what I’m wondering is if whoever does the hiring does *ANY* sort of background checks on people they are potentially going to hire.
You put what you do out there so everyone knows about it, be prepared for the shit storm that is going to result. That’s not just what I mentioned, it’s racism, it’s any number of things.
I mean, they HAVE shitcanned cast members for various reasons(some of them petty some of them not) for less. But human trafficking?That’s pretty bad. Just from what I’ve been reading online, people are horrified by the human trafficking thing. And they want that person GONE.Not only that, make an EXAMPLE of them, too.
TL:DR? Not a good look, Andy C***n.
