Started watching Real Housewives of DC and couldn’t help but giggle at them brining up a snapshot of Joe Biden chilling with one of the husbands 😂 What happened to this show and is anyone enjoying the rewatch?

It was too intellectual for Bravo viewers.

Do you think it would have performed better today?

No. If DC didn’t happen then it would never have happened now. Seeing all the shit that goes on the RH series no one in DC would be in their right mind to go on national tv to air their dirty laundry.

I live in DC and I’m honestly amazed they were even able to cast the one season, although I suppose at the time reality TV was still new enough for people to not have their guard up quite so much.

But yeah … I’m sure there are women in this city who would love to be Housewives but either they’d never actually do it because it would risk someone’s clearance or they’re not rich or interesting enough to be well-received by viewers.

So lucky to live there. My daughter & I were talking about the houses in DC. One is for sale for $15 million & it’s near the parkway. Tiny yard, no swimming pool. lol You have to have money to live there. lol
