"NYC Prep," which got far too much press attention because everyone thought it was going to be interesting and fun and wild and "Gossip-Girl"-ish (but what did everyone know?), was seen by 1.23 million viewers last night.
For the record, that's not bad. (But not great either; somewhere in between but closer to "not great.")
I was predicting 0.23 million.
More propaganda from Bravo on the jump...
Look who's in biz with Bravo! (Pix: AP)
...scripted series, AND a new competition series from Sarah Jessica Parker's production company that will pit aspiring artists against one another...
Enough to make everyone forget about that little show that has now officially joined the Lifetime lineup? We'll find out.
At Bravo's upfront for advertisers - just concluded - the network offered a glimpse at the post-"Project Runway" Bravo and it is a different one, and a varied one, and a packed one.
Here's what the press release says about the scripted shows - a first for Bravo which steered clear of this usually-risky program form for reasons of $$$$...
"... From Laurence Andries ("Six Feet Under," "Alias") and executive producers Leslie Morgenstein and Bob Levy for Alloy Entertainment ("Gossip Girl"), comes "Blueprint," a serialized dramedy following the lives of two best friends – one straight, one gay – who own New York's hottest architecture and interior design firm.
"From Jonathan Prince ("The Cleaner," "Cane" and the Emmy winning NBC series "American Dreams") and Alana Sanko ("Murphy Brown," and award-winning children's television including "Just for Kicks" and "DragonTales") comes "30 Under 30." The series centers around young, influential up-and-comers who have earned a coveted spot on an annual "30 Under 30" list. The series follows these characters – among them a sexy young chef, a gossip blogger, an avant garde artist and a high end real estate agent – after being honored at a big event in New York. These hot and talented young professionals are all over the New York social scene living dynamic, glamorous, and sometimes scandalous lives, which cleverly intersect and collide. "
OK, please head south to the jump for the new program line-up, including development deals...And only for readers who have plenty of time to kill. There's a LOT here...It's gonna be a busy year at Bravo...
