LynnNChicago Watch What Happens Live Nov 5, 2010

LynnNChicago   Watch What Happens Live - Round Two
For the second time this week Andy Cohen hosted his talk show in the Bravo Clubhouse with guests Isaac Mizrahi and Kyle Richardson from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. 
Tonight's poll asks which Beverly Hills Housewife you'd most like to have as your mother.  Kyle has won the past three Beverly Hills polls, including her husband being voted hottest husband.  This poll is no exception, Kyle makes a clean sweep. 
Each show Andy provides us with is astute insight into the week's shows with three things that he's obsessed with.  In a repeat from Monday night's show he includes Phaedra's crazy photo shoot featuring a huge jar of pickles, a sneak peek at Isaac's new show "Fashion Show" showing his co-host Iman in a rather poor light, and finally showing Mizrahi as a child star in the TV show "Fame" looking like a complete dork with a goofy hat on his head.  That is the best you can do Cohen?  Nothing about a $60,000 4th Birthday Party? or a diamond necklace?  How about a working mother who works 30% harder than the rest of the country...  Moving on.
A viewer called in to ask Kyle why she is so mean to Kim and of course Kyle defends herself saying it's just how the sister's happen to interact.  Kim is truly grateful for Kyle's advice (criticism) and she almost goes so far as to blame editing but I think she knows better.  We never buy the editing excuse. 
What a treat!  Paris Hilton calls into the show and annoyingly refers to her Aunt Kim and Aunt Kyle
as AWNT, taking on the European pronunciation of a word that we American's pronounce the same as Ant, the ones that ruin picnics.  Paris ruined our picnic with her moronic phone call that was simply another Andy Cohen stunt meant to up the ante for Bravo when in reality, Paris Hilton doesn't provide credibility, only adds to the jokes.  Kyle does just fine on her own. 
As if to say, please continue to make fun of my obsession with young boys, right on cue, Andy's biggest fan, Ben Weiner calls into the show.  He confirms that he is, in fact, a cousin of Isaac Mizrahi and that he put the word out via Twitter that The Real Housewives of Atlanta are moving to Sunday night.  More great news, a 13-year old boy watches Bravo's Housewives AND has a Twitter account. When will the fun end?  Soon we'll learn he swills bourbon and smokes cigars. 
By the third segment of the show it was clear that the glass of beer that Isaac was drinking had gone to his head, either he'd been drinking heavily prior to filming the show or he's a lightweight in the drinking department.  His inability to respond to simple questions would have been funnier had he tried to hid his drunkenness but he put it all out there.
The lame game of the night was what Cohen called the $100,000 Pyrakid promising both child stars on his stage he would never show their photos again if they got 7 out of 10 correct.  The five correct that they got won them absolutely nothing.
The Mazel tonight was the mother of a 5-year old boy who had dressed up as Daphne from Scoobie Doo for Halloween.  Had I known that I would have forced my son to wear a Princess Barbie outfit. 
And the Jackhole, Former President, George W Bush, Andy doesn't like Bush, no surprise there. 
Bravo has also posted the after show which was almost more interesting than the on air variety.  Kyle
was asked if she had a tattoo (no) and the designer of her dress in the show's opening (Roberto Cavalli) and how she feels about Taylor buying diamonds for her 4-year old (to each his own).  
Isaac was asked about fashion trends that he wished would go away, (huge platform heels) and then he managed to get a dig in to Mr. Tim Gunn which was probably a really big mistake for several reasons.  Two of which are that Tim Gunn is very popular and Project Runway used to be on Bravo but isn't anymore.  With a new show coming out on Tuesday it's not the best strategy to annoy the audience. 
Kyle was asked about her relationship with Bethenny and having known each other for 20-years Kyle admits to having called Bethenny for support when she was having a melt-down during filming.  This led Isaac to ask Andy Cohen about the cast of The Real Housewives of New York and whether or not Bethenny would be back. 
Typical Andy wouldn't answer the question but did mention that he had been at Bethenny's birthday party where both Ramona and Alex were also in attendance.  That is a good clue.  It could have been filming her 40th Birthday party for Bethenny's show or Real Housewives, or both?  Probably not both but it'll be interesting to see where the footage ends up and if Andy Cohen will be included in the scenes on the air. 
It's What Happened, as Bethenny would say....
I have just recorded my latest show with Carly Hall and it should be available to hear sometime this weekend or early Monday morning, thank you to everyone for your support, it has been overwhelmingly positive and the last show had so many hits, the producers were shocked that a 1st time show could do so well and that is thanks to all of you!!!
Until Next Time.....
