Ok, you've gotta see this show: Tuesday nights at 10:00 p.m. on Bravo, but then they replay it all week long, Bravo-style.
I started watching it for the clothes---which I admit are all fine & lovely---but now I'm hooked on it for the insanity of these Manhattan mavins. OMG, especially Alex, who met her husband on an "International Internet Dating Site" (she can't just admit it's eHarmony???), hired a French nanny so that her kids would learn to speak French (she doesn't), and named these poor hapless boys "Johann" and "Francois".
She and her equally unappealing husband spend most of their time complimenting each other on how beautiful they are, what fabulous taste they have, how lucky they are, and how fat their bank account is.
They go shopping in St. Bart's ("we would never think of shopping without each other. We are each other's stylist...") and she tries on an assortment of hideous designer dresses, none of which is under $2500. She buys about 5 of them but it's a kinda futile attempt to look like she knows what she's doing fashionwise. Euuuwwww!!!
So she blabs on about moving up in society, getting better friends, getting invited to better parties. He manages a boutique hotel, she works in "visual merchandising" (translation: she's a window dresser at Macy's, but whatev). I really don't think they're getting invited anywhere any too soon.
The saddest part of all: she finally admits she's from KANSAS!!!!! I laughed so hard Nyquil came out my nose!
Tune in, it's a real blend of hilarity, pathos, soporific dialog, and some pretty interesting fashion on the side.
