New, Georgetown-based Bravo show picked up!

[Anonymous]

For the other Bravo junkies out there. Heard from a reliable source that they've green lighted a show set in Georgetown. The premise is exactly what Southern charm was originally intended to be (before it morphed into the Thomas&Katherine show), a show following five "playboys" in their moneyed, boozy environs.

Southern Charm was fun initially because it was a group of people who really liked each other. Of course it devolved into a nasty fight-fest (same with Shahs). I'm sure this new show will do the same. I can't even watch any RH anymore - the fighting is ridiculous.

Georgetown is played out and uninteresting.

There are playboys in Georgetown?

Just Kuwaitis who smell like cigarettes and a bottle of cologne.

I'll watch whatever gruesome mixture of grim, pretentious old people and young wannabes they find in Georgetown. The DC Housewives show was grim, and I'm sure any Georgetown show will be.

This sounds like a great show... if it was set 30 years ago.

I agree. I'm a Bravo whore and I'll admit it.

Very excited for this. Now I hope that unlike RHODC/P they actually live where they are supposed to. I don't want to watch someone traipsing around the Palisades and calling it Georgetown

ooooh, it could be good!! Depends on casting though. Southern Charm has a good cast and that's why it works.

For those who say Georgetown is played out -- yes, for those who live in DC. For those outside of DC, no one really knows anything about it.

That's what I was thinking as well. My first reaction was "who gives a flying fig about Georgetown" but when I thought about people not from the area, Georgetown is a recognizable name associated with fancypants folks. Works for a Bravo show.
