And then Carole blew that up during the reunion. Carole and Tinsley hung out more after season 10 finished filming. It wasn't Carole's "friendship" with Tinsley because that only really developed as a result of Bethenny icing Carole out during season 10. It wasn't Bethenny's charity work that caused the fracture because that actually only started in September, about 6 weeks before filming began. "I've paid for these trips and Carole and Adam can't even." That seems to have spurred Bethenny into score keeping nastiness. Carole put hard limits on Bethenny telling Bethenny it wasn't appropriate. Carole's friend was married to the former CEO of Paramount. Bethenny is actually lucky Carole wanted to salvage that friendship because Carole only mentioned the thing that truly seems to have caused the schism once-Bethenny tried to social climb at a funeral and afterwards with Carole's recently widowed friend. Reddit commenter: “It's not that big of Bethenny considering that Bethenny Zarined the fuck out of her relationship with Carole in season 10, i.e. You will notice the kid has not changed his partying one iota. Got a baby, a few covers and now he was single gay dad Andy. It is not a coincidence he decided to have a baby around this time. Notice the show never appeared and Cohen retains his job at WWHL. I think this was Bravo's bargaining chip to say "we will make a show out of finding someone to replace you" in response to Cohen's attitude about being ousted and how invaluable he felt he was to Bravo. Variety added, “From writing monologues, to picking their sidekicks and guests, this hosts-for-a-night will get the chance to live out their fantasy and design their dream show.”

"Describing “Look Who’s Hosting Live,” Variety said Cohen “turns the tables on celebrities who have envied his job and gives them the ultimate opportunity to host their own live late-night talk show, for one night only.” Try and find Andy's name listed as an EP on RHOC or any other franchise before that.īack sometime when Andy left, there was this - being pushed by Cohen and Bravo - people read it as Cohen on his way out His involvement in Top Chef was to get into a Twitter war with Anthony Bordain about Treme and shooting in New Orleans and taking tax credits when they didn't need it. The EP is a vanity credit, the same way he got himself listed an a producer on Top Chef so he would get an Emmy. That was in exchange for him stepping down as an executive at Bravo (aka going quietly). He retains his job as host of WWHL, he got a first right of refusal deal on any new projects his production company makes (one.he had one show a shitty Jerry O'Connel show that followed WWHL) and he got an EP credit negotiated on all current Housewives show. OP: Yup that was part of his negotiation on exit from Bravo. So long story longer -Cohen did not create the Housewives, he just takes credit for it. So much so Bravo decided to have a conscious uncoupling with Cohen. He was also getting credit for Housewives success. Cohen was becoming the most recognized face on Bravo outside of the housewives. The more successful the RH shows became the more popular WWHL became. Bravo scheduled it as the Sunday night RH show as 1.5 hours so the rating for the show would count as the ratings for WWHL. Cohen pitched his WWHL show as a 1/2 hour live show after the Sunday night Housewives show. The special was called the Real Housewives of OC reunion, a watch what happens live special (WWH was the Bravo theme then). When the second reunion needed a host Cohen pitched himself as the host to save money. Eventually became The Real Housewives of Orange County. It was originally called The Real Housewives - behind the gates of Coto De Caza. Bravo wanted to turn it into a 6 part series. He pitched a documentary on the lives of the women behind the gates of Coto de Caza.

It was created by a guy named Scott Dunlop. Datalounge OP: Cohen had nothing to do with the Housewives.
