Watch What Happens Live

Just make it go away! Jenni Pulos rapping. Nene on for the umpteenth time. That annoying "Plead The Fifth" game. Andy is just repeating guests over and over at this point...

I watched one clip of this show and that was enough for me.
Andy needs to learn that no matter how much Anderson Cooper and Ryan Murphy like her, most people now loathe NeNe.
Can someone start a SHAHS OF SUNSET thread? Assuming anyone watched it.
Oh Christ! More honey badger jokes. Sooooooo lame.
Drinking Game Alert! Five nights a week has gotten to be too much of this show for me. Andy (or the character that he's playing) is annoying, but he's never been the reason that I've watched the show. It was because the guests would often let their guard down a bit and say things that they wouldn't probably say on the Today show. But there seems to be less of that now and the show has become a bit of an irritation to sit through.
It's a menstrual show. Andy is embarrassing to gays everywhere.
Last night's Drinking Game word was "shah" and they said it 30 times. If you took 30 shots for his "game," then wouldn't you get severe alcohol poisoning? And who'd want to drink that much on a Sunday night when you have to get up for work the next morning (not to mention the lost hour for DTS)?
Doesn't Andy have any friends who can tall them that his tween girl affectations are not cute or amusing?
Sean Avery is back on tonight. Mmmm....
R6 If "menstrual" was intentional, that's hilarious. If not...

I just watched last night's show. Nene has really bought the hype hook, line and sinker. WHat an ungracious cow. She looks like a linebacker too. I like Reza, kinda cute and is out and proud. Good for him.
Reza is handsome, but he carries/styles himself like a guy in his 50s or 60s.
WWHL was kinda fun as a once-a-week show, but not every night. It's just painful to watch AC make a fucking fool of himself every night of the week.
Tweet me!!!
R15 I agree completely. WWHL was great as a once a week show, but now as a nightly show its hard to watch. Andy is WAY too over the top to be on every night.
compared to the guests he's a wallflower, which makes me wonder how he got his own show executive background notwithstanding
WWHL is off next week. Coming back the week after with... A 'FACTS OF LIFE' REUNION!!!!
R19: a full reunion? I doubt Lisa Welch will be on.
Did I mention I love a side pony?
I'm sure she will be.
[quote]A 'FACTS OF LIFE' REUNION!!!! Julie Ann Haddock Felice Schachter Julie Piekarski and Sherrie Krenn as "Pippa"
Why wasn't I invited?

I like this show, its light fun. Andy has a way of bringing celebrities out of their shells, its interesting to watch.
Nene had her chance with CELEBRITY APPRENTICE and blew it. She acted too trashy and ghetto. There was no excuse when you had classy and regal women such as Star Jones and Dionne Warwick alongside you. Sister needed to sit down and watch how a black woman conducts themselves professionally. That video of her going all chickenhead on Star would have been fine on a low grade network, but on Prime Time television you cut out the sterotypical antics and act like an grown woman. Dionne reduced her to tears when she called her a coward, and she was right. She picked fights with all the black women on that show, but wouldn't dare step to the white women with that bullshit.

[quote]Nene had her chance with CELEBRITY APPRENTICE and blew it. She acted too trashy and ghetto. It would appear as though Teresa Guidice studied NeNe's appearance is doing the exact opposite to much better results.
Drinking Game Alert! Every time Phaedra Parks steals your car, take a shot!
Andy
Andy lied. No Facts of Life Reunion.
It wouldn't be so bad if Andy didn't concentrate on the Housewives so much--and stop shilling for Bravo shows.
Jenna Jameson on tonight!
I'd still stick my face in Andy's dark furry bush.
Jenna Jameson looks like a FREAK!
[quote]Jenna Jameson on tonight! Oh, dear - when the best guest you can get is a has-been adult movie star, you know you're desperate.
Ro
what the hell is up with Jenna's eyes? almost alien-like. Jenna Jameson and Clay Aiken.. at the same time? bizarre.
Robin Byrd looked better than the plasticine Jenna.
The saddest part was not Jenna's alien face, but Andy & Clay trying to act like pussyhounds.
R39 That was so sad. Clay still hasn't fully accepted his sexuality. During a porn title or not game Clay became uncomfortable when Inrearpendence Day was called out. Andy isn't as comfortable around other gay people as he is with heterosexuals. He was more in to talking to Jenna than he was Clay. That's the way it always is with him and these gay-hetero pairings.
RE 34 - Don't you mean grey ? Does the carpet match ........
Is Sandra Bernhard still making weekly appearances? They were pretty unfunny, as I recall.
Sandra was out of town on tour the week before last, so WWHL didn't have her feature then. The show was on hiatus last week. I thought maybe Sandra would pre-tape some stuff for them, but apparently somebody smart realized that viewers just aren't that interested. We'll see if the segments continue when she's back in NYC.
Watch What Happens Live was very awkward last night. Andy seemed very uncomfortable with Clay. It was a mess. I know WWHL likes strange parings of guests, but I think last nite was too strange, even for that show. I hope WWHL doesn't have Sandra back. She was not funny an was just annoying.
Are all these guests required to watch Andy's awful Bravo shows?
R45 I think the guests do watch the Bravo shows before WWHL. A lot of times the guest will say something like they were just watching whatever was on before WWHL. They probably watch it in the greenroom or something. What was up with last nights WWHL? It was the strangest episode of that show I've ever seen and that's saying something considering how that show is. Andy and the guests all seemed very uncomfortable. I think it was a poor paring of guests.
5 nights a week is too much.
Dano
Clay is always so uptight and awkward. His haistyle is a lot calmer than the one features on Apprentice. Jenna was unrecognizable. Doesn't she suffer from a deadly disease? I wanted to hear more from Robin Byrd.
Lie back, get comfortable, tweet me, post on my facebook wall....
[quote]I wanted to hear more from Robin Byrd. You and me, both! She was, by far, the most interesting person in the room (and that includes Andy) and could have told some wild and fun stories about her public access show. The Rick Donovan stories alone...
"It's a menstrual show. Andy is embarrassing to gays everywhere." I just clicked on this thread for the first time today. I can't believe that "menstrual show" hasn't caught on as the latest DL catchphrase. Things are slipping here!!
You can tell Jenna HATES when people bring up her porn past. But the only thing interesting about her is her career in porn. She made a point of saying she got rich, rich, rich, rich off it. Her face is a plastic surgery nightmare and she's skinny as a rail.

Love the show but hate the Sandra Bernhard spots, she is so not funny.
[quote]Are all these guests required to watch Andy's awful Bravo shows? When Martha Stewart was on, she had no idea who Andy Cohen or what the shows he produces were about. She had to be briefed by her assistants at MSLO.
Saw the episode with the chick from Happy Endings and one of the crazy ass Braxton sisters and it was quite entertaining. This show is so dependent on the guests and their energy. Andy can't carry the show on his own that's fer shur. The best pairings so far have been Jackee and Regina King and Jackee and Sheree who was a stone cold bore but it brought the best out in Jackee. Andy however is no Graham Norton who is pretty awesome at what he does.
No Facts of Life Reunion next week, either. He is just having the same people over and over and over again...
What is the deal with Shannen Doherty and Alyssa Milano? Andy asked her to say 3 nice things about her. Was this a major feud?
Andy need contacts. He squints trying to read the prompter.
GG looks like Bernadette Peters with Betty Boop lips.
betty boop gg
Shannen actually came off really well.
I completely stopped watching it by the time it went to 5 days. When it started it was kind of like eaves dropping on a VP and his friends to just overkill.
I think guests are cancelling right and left on Andy. Kristen Chenowith was supposed to be on last night with Doherty. Levar Burton was supposed to be on Sunday. No Facts of Life show in sight anymore. Shannen was fun, Rancid sucked.
No self respecting person is going to go on this show. Look at some of his guests,Shannen Giuliana Rancic, Clay Aiken, Jenna Jameson, Coco, Tamara Braxton, Wilmer Valderrama, Nancy Grace, Anderson Cooper. All those people are a joke. This is probbaly about the only show that will have them on. When was the last time you saw these people being interviewed on another show?
Shannen seems funny as fuck and someone that I would totally have a drink with!
I haven't watched the show in a while. Andy Cohen makes me want to throw up. Bravo should fire his muthafuckin' ass. He thinks he funny but he ain't.
God, Chris Klein is creepy looking these days.
Between Tori's alien fat face and Chris's weird botox it was a frightening show.
Methinks Andy was getting severely pissed during that game between the West Coast & East Coast Housewives. Those new shows look SHITTY! I thought LuAnn was a better performer than Melissa Gorgon.
What the hell was that trainwreck last night? The celebration of mediocrity was astounding, as if all these people think they are superstars. It's hysterical how Andy tries to make everything else seem as "successful" as the housewives. Does any other show even come close to having good ratings?
Christ those Shahs are such boring people.
I only saw the last 10 minutes tonight. But despite Andy's gleeful tweeting re: Ha-ha! SNL was sooo funny! he seemed really transformed tonight. Much more low-key, attempting butchness, not his usual screaming queen-ness. I think that parody on SNL really got to him.
and%20I%20say...%20GOOD.%20
I know a rentboy that knows AC (and by AC I don't mean Anderson) all too well... He's 19 and says Andy is one notch above a chicken hawk.
that girl rapping in the background song makes me wanna barf. It used to be cute but they play it too much and too loud so it's become prominent and annoying.

So the "Shahs" of Sunset are actually Jews. I've never watched the show, I'm not interested in it, so I didn't know beforehand. Bravo falsely marketed the show.
Not all the Shahs on the show are jews. MJ is not a jew. GG is not a jew. Don't know about all of them but they're not all jews.
Anonymous
Some are Jews, a couple are Muslim, R73. I can't believe anyone is watching that shit.
R75 I agree. I can't believe WE are watching this. I love the Shahs!

TV's going to hell and it's only going to get WORSE. Soon, we'll have porn on broadcast.
The large guy joking about his dick was uncomfortable.
Why is Andy so obsessed with SNL has-beens?
Same reason why he's obsessed with trash disguised as housewives?
Don't be surprised when Andy Cohen inevitably gives an on air shout out to DL as his "Jack Hole of the Day", resulting in another infestation of frauen.
Entertainment Weekly
Enjoyed watching Rachel Maddow on WWHL last night.
Doesn't Andy think it's a little tedious to have these non-Bravo people on to discuss the banality of the Housewives?
I think Cohen is really misjudging the extent of his audience's interest in his own antics. And I can't imagine he'll take his eventual collapse with any kind of equanimity.
Andy Cohen was on 360 with Anderson last night talking about Dick Clark, Andy seems less obnoxious when he's a guest on someone else's show and is not putting on that silly persona. I don't watch WWHL but I do want to see how Rachel Maddow did on it last night.
R83, I don't think they spent a minute of the show with Maddow talking about the Housewives. But I know that doesn't fit your narrative, so whatever. R84, do you not think they look at ratings? Or audience response? You, like so many others, strangely assume Andy Cohen exists in a vacuum, acting solely on his own whims. You give him way too much power. Bravo is owned by NBC. Neither he nor the shows on Bravo would be on the air if they didn't provide a good return on the network's budgeted investment. Shows air, then go away all the time on Bravo, just like every other network. They're the ones that don't generate sufficient ratings / ad revenue for the network. The ones that continue to run are the ones that pay off for the network, whether you like them or not. Meanwhile, Andy gets hosting & guest gigs on other NBC shows (Miss Universe, the Today Show) so obviously they see him as adding some value. I'm not here to defend all he does; I don't think Andy Cohen's just the greatest thing nor do I watch the Housewives shows. But the frothing nastiness you guys vent over one guy who made a decent level of success in entertainment t.v., and the skewed view of the facts you use to criticize him, tends to say more about you than him.
Fuck off, R86. We're not required to like the smarmy, self-serving, crossed-eyed 13 year-old girl trapped in a man's body known as Andy Cohen. But since it's a free country, you can continue to finger-bang yourself to the thought of him, if it makes you happy.
But I think there are limits to his appeal, and those may very well have been reached by having him on daily. Unless you're saying you really believe he's going to stay popular--or become more popular--doing the same limited thing night after night after night indefinitely.
Thanks for proving my point, r87. You can't argue facts, so you just have to resort to making up shit about me. FWIW, I think Cohen is attractive-adjacent, but not super hot, certainly not fantasy material for me. R88 - You may very well be correct. But my point is: WWHL started out online. After it got good traffic, so they put it on air sporadically, then weekly. After establishing a track record of good ratings, it went to 5 nights a week. Because the show airs on a commercial network, there's literally no way Andy Cohen made those calls by himself. And he had to prove himself each step of the way. As for future prospects, my guess it'll be like Jimmy Kimmel or Jimmy Fallon - it may not boost his popularity but could settle in for a decent, steady run. Few things in t.v. have a shelf life beyond 5 or 6 years, so if he runs even half that he'll have done okay.
Okay last post on this - but I shouldn't have said "he had to prove himself" at r89. Rather, the network had to see there was an adequate record of viewership at each step before it decided to take the next one.
Here's what!
I love this show
Does Rachel Maddow wear false eyelashes? She wouldn't seem to be the type, but her eyelashes are so thick.
Did Anderson ask how he felt about not getting the Regis job he desperately wanted?
Don Caroline is Sunday night's guest.
Rachel was great on the show. She went with it and was very loose and funny. Andy seemed a tad bit on the defensive about Bravo with her but she didn't condescend to him at all. His show is totally dependent upon his guests. His schtick wears thin so his guests have to add something to the mix. When they don't (Kim Zolziak or Sheree) it can be deadly but when they do like Rachel or Jackee or Kristen Johnston it's a perfectly entertaining 22 minutes.
I like WWHL on occasion (Rachel was cool), but I can't abide Jenni Pulos's rapping.
I want Rachel to come to my house and make me Negronis....
Ricki Lake and Urkel were also fun. WWHL dug up a whole bunch of nostalgic Urkel an Ricki photos and footage, which added to the lighthearted and funny atmosphere. I thought Urkel would be a total dick, but he came across as normal, and Kim Johnson even appeared, as the bartender of the night. Ricki has the cutest laugh ever!
Rachel Dratch, too, is a good guest. Funny, spontaneous, loose, self-deprecating and smart.
[quote] I want Rachel to come to my house and make me Negronis.... Haha, that reminded me of a borderline racist comment she made on the show. Andy asked her what's a negroni, and she said it's an "oni" with a ... and then she stopped what she had started to say. Of course, what she had started to say was, "an 'oni' with a negro." I'm sure she was trying to be funny, but that was in pretty bad taste. It reminded me of the time that Arnold Schwarzenegger appeared on Jay Leno's show, and Jay Leno asked him what his last name meant. You can probably figure out what joke he made about that.
It took him forever, but Jaleel White has finally grown into his looks. He's hot -- who knew?
Jenni's rapping is atrociously racist.
It's official: they renewed SHAHS OF SUNSET, according to Deadline.com. Get ready for Season 2!
Wow, it's amazing to me to think that anyone has standards low enough to consider Jaleel White "hot."
[quote]It's official: they renewed SHAHS OF SUNSET, according to Deadline.com. FUCK!!! Andy must be trying to get into Seacrest's pants.
I love Andy Cohen. He's adorable. I can't stand Jenny's rapping either.
Jeff%20Lewis
My fave is still the Jackee & Regina King appearance. I guess they're old friends, and they were so loose, and fun - just laughing the whole time. Course, the fact they were drunk helped alot. If someone is too pretentious, or self concious, on that show, they fall flat. That's why Kim, or Sheree are so bad on it. Kristen Johnson is another great guest. Doesn't drink, but totally loose. I like the show - can't take Dave, Jay, or Jimmy K. anymore. It's just a quick laugh, and gone.
[quote] Andy seems less obnoxious when he's a guest on someone else's show and is not putting on that silly persona. I agree that he's absolutely insufferable on his own show, but alright in different settings.
How much SNL ass will he kiss this upcoming week?
The other night, I think it was Monday, they didn't have a word for the drinking game so every so often the word "drink" would pop up on the screen. It was ridiculous.
That episide, r110, had Kathleen Turner and Jennifer Tilly as the guests, and was hilarious from start to finish. One of the best of the series.
Closet case Anderson Cooper will be a guest on Monday May 07th. Its too bad Andy and Anderson friends, because I would love for Andy to out Anderson during the show. Its pathetic and disgusting that people actually help him stay in the closet. He's a slime ball who makes it very obvious he hates women. Someone needs to out Anderson on air.

All gay episode tonight - Kevin Jonas and Lance Bass were the guests. Lance is a good guest because he doesn't seem to mind talking about anything thrown at him. He said that Andy Cohen is a good kisser which referenced back to when Wendy Williams had Andy play Plead the Fifth and he said that Lance was one celebrity that he hooked up with (or dated or something) that would surprise people. And one of the questions was about Perez Hilton being on the show earlier in the week and saying that he apologized to celebs that he outed. Could Lance forgive Perez? He said that he doesn't harbor any hard feelings. It was funny to hear that Topanga hit on Lance before she knew he was gay. I wonder if Lance and Kevin got to know each other better later.
New October 11th episode featuring - Morgan Fairchild & Kate Gosselin Which one of these broads has had the most cosmetic work done? Morgan's face appears bloated and doesn't move a stitch, but Kate is hardly even recognizable. Her cheeks, her teeth, everything looks different. Andy showed an old pic of her and asked what she's all had done since giving birth, but of course she got out of it by only saying that she's lost weight.
I watch this show only when I like the guests. I think Andy Cohen is evil, a jerk and just annoying. I'm looking forward to monday, when Jill Zarin confronts him about her firing from RHNY, ALTHOUGH it won't be live lol. They already had the encounter taped and they're gonna edit it, I guess because they're afraid she'll make Cohen look bad? Why else wouldn't it be live?
Did anyone see the one with Jenny McCarthy? lol she was taking dares...she's a mess and I feel embarrassed for her son.
[quote]I think Andy Cohen is evil, a jerk and just annoying. Then you have serious mental problems.
R117 you haven't seen his real housewives crap? He gets rich off these women embarrassing themselves and sometimes even ruining their own families. How is that not evil? Yes the women agree to it, but it doesn't make him any less evil.
R118, I don't think you understand how show business works.
R119 I think Cohen is no better than the scummy likes of Seacrest or Satan Cowell. All of them are talentless, greedy and devoid of morals.
Again, you have no idea how show business works.
I think Dr. Phil or Dr. Drew should host the reunions. He wouldn't let those women get away with some of their crap that Andy does. He just sits there and smirks, Dr. Phil would stop those people in their tracks and make them accountable for their crap.
My all time favorite was the episode with Kim Fields and Geri Jewell. ...who would have thought Geri would be the raunchy one.
Surprising to nobody... Tonight Andy Cohen said that he'd like to fuck or get fucked by Paul Ryan. To be fair (which isn't usually necessary here on DL) it was in response to his own poll question which was "Which of the 4 Presidential/VP candidates would you rather?"
Jill Zarin ... Now I just feel sorry for her. She misunderstood those 15 minutes and is still so deluded it's almost uncomfortable to watch. ALMOST, because, unlike creatures like Honey Boo Boo (which I can'r watch), you can't say that she was taken advantage of or that she was unaware. This is a woman who grew up around intelligent if intolerable people. She has higher education. She has travelled even before the show. This was not the first time she ventured out of the farm. She really is responsible for her own stupidity and greed.
I appears that Jill is trying to start a feud with LuAnn in a way to get back on the show.
Best thing I've seen on that show in a while. Yesterday Shemar Moore was one of the guests. The funniest was Andy Cohen making a face like somebody farted right after Shemar (who once again announced that he's not gay) told Andy that he reminded him of his queeny gay uncle.
No new shows until the first week in January.
I used to watch WWHL regularly. I don't anymore because the show is always on breaks. It's forced me to look for other shows on at 11pm. I've stuck with them.
Anyone see NeNe last night? Andy asked her what New Year's advice she would give to Kim and she responded, "Stop lying!" Then NeNe went on to say she divorced Greg because "sometimes a woman has to take a stand." Hilarious...especially since the real reason she divorced him was to protect her assetts against being seized during his financial woes.
Threads like this make me laugh. If all you eldergays hate WWHL so much, why do you continue to watch?
What did we think of Miss Andy sporting the Robin Thicke hairstyle last night? I was disappointed in Sarah Paulson when she talked about how much she loves Don Caro Manzo.
Andy looks stupid with his hair like that r132. He is too damn old to wear his hair like that.
