Richard Blais on Hungry Games: “I’m learning more as a chef!”

October 9, 2014 Lori Acken

It’s October — the burnished gold, bonfire-scented heart of autumn. So odds are pretty good you’re gobbling up anything you can get your hands on that’s all about the apples or labeled “Pumpkin Spice.” Even if, if you ask me, 90 percent of the latter tastes more like drugstore aftershave than anything related to actual pumpkin seasonings. So what is it about the mere mention of fall that makes us crave all things sweetly spicy. What is it that makes us crave anything at all? That’s the heart of the matter of Food Network’s fun and fascinating new series Hungry Games, hosted […]

7 Questions With … Caroline Manzo

October 2, 2014 Kellie Freeze

Caroline Manzo became one of The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s best-loved Bravo-lebrities with her outspokenness and fierce devotion to her family. Now, the fiery redhead has her own show, Manzo’d With Children (Premiering Sunday at 9pm ET with back-to-back episodes). Manzo laughs when asked if there will be any similarities to Housewives: “it’s apples and oranges,” she says. “Housewives was based on drama, this show has a fair amount of, I’ll say “predicaments,” but there’s always a resolution and we do it, “our way,” as a family.” Caroline took time from taping the show, helping plan daughter Lauren’s wedding, […]

Caroline Manzo is “Manzo’d With Children”

October 2, 2014 Kellie Freeze

Fans of reality television first met Caroline Manzo on The Real Housewives of New Jersey and fell in love with her outspokenness and fierce protection of (and sometimes rivalry with) her family members. But Manzo never foresaw her fame as a reality personality. “When I got hired for Housewives, I thought, ‘I’m going to do one season and they’re going to kick my ass off because what do I have to offer?’” Fortunately, Bravo knows best and now Manzo is back, starring in her own show. Manzo’d With Children follows the matriarch, her husband Al and their three adult children […]

Meet Bravo’s Jersey Belle Jaime Primak Sullivan!

August 1, 2014 Lori Acken

Even in the lobby of an iconic Beverly Hills hotel in the midst of a weeks-long press event rife with celebrities, Jersey Belle star Jaime Primak Sullivan stands out. Though she’s statuesque, tanned and mahogany-haired, with a penchant for stilettos and micro-mini skirts that showcase her impossibly long legs, it’s Sullivan’s gregarious confidence that turns heads and keeps them turned her way. Now the proud Jersey native and founder of Bridge and Tunnel Entertainment will share her fish-out-of-water tale — how a fabulous bicoastal publicist became a fabulous, if slightly perplexed, working mom in Mountain Brook, Alabama — in Bravo’s […]

July 22, 2014 Lori Acken

Following tonight’s doozie of a The Real Housewives of New York City Season 6 finale, Bravo will air a three-part reunion beginning Tuesday, July 29 at 9pm ET/PT. Hosted by Andy Cohen, the reunion specials bring Aviva Drescher, LuAnn de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, Carole Radziwill, Ramona Singer, Kristen Taekman and Heather Thomson together to talk about the season’s plentiful jaw-dropping moments. On tonight’s RHONY finale — already much-discussed because of Aviva’s leg-tossing tantrum at Le Cirque — Sonja confronts Harry and LuAnn about their alleged night together and Kristen unapologetically uses nepotism to land a modeling gig. After the finale LuAnn, Ramona and Heather join Andy to talk it over on a special Watch What […]

July 15, 2014 Ryan Berenz

Monday was NBCUniversal cable day at the Television Critics Association 2014 Summer Press Tour, with panels for shows from USA Network, Syfy, Bravo, Oxygen, Esquire Network and more. Kicking off the day was USA Network’s DaVinci Code-like new limited series DIG, starring Jason Isaacs and Anne Heche. Described as a murder mystery set in the realm of biblical prophecies, DIG is in production in Jerusalem. Recent violence in the Holy Land may impact production of both DIG and FX’s Tyrant, but producers were still trying to assess the situation. We talked with Isaacs, who reveled in the opportunity to film […]
