Mary Shelley’s book, Frankenstein was written in 1818. So, it’s not that shocking that in 2019, just over 200 years later most people think that Frankenstein was the name of the monster. It was not. The monster had no name.
Today, I’ll share with you a modernized version of the story. In this version of the story, Frankenstein is a female executive at a cable television network. Frankenstein essentially has the last say in casting of a certain reality show. Many people believe that Napoleon Bonaparte has this power but that is not the reality.
In this sad story, Frankenstein is pleased with the creation of a female monster. She is currently refusing to acknowledge that the monster needs to be removed from the public. It seems the monster will continue lumbering around on the cable channels TV show despite some heated debates on the subject.
But wait, there’s more!
Yet another higher up female monster whisperer in a suit with the same cable network has been coddling the monster since the last major melée involving the monster and the townspeople. The monster whisperer is reinforcing all the confabulations of the monster. “Yes, your “friends” did you wrong, monster.” “I’m here for you, monster.” “Don’t worry your ugly bald head about a thing, monster.”
The monster whisperer doesn’t seem to remember the original story. The monster that Victor Frankenstein created killed him in the end.
Somewhere, In a city far, far away…
A showrunner weighs her options. The production company itself is full steam ahead with production preparations. But will yet another showrunner take off for greener pastures? It’s one thing to work in say, post production. And, It’s one thing for the monster whisperer to send supportive texts to the monster. It’s one thing for Frankenstein to want to keep her monster in another city far, far away. But no one, no one wants to have to be the monster wrangler on a daily basis. No one wants to be tasked with waking up to face the monster and run the show everyday. There will never be another king. And the monster isn’t going anywhere unless there is some sort of drastic change of direction.
Let me see, is this Shari Levine, or are you reaching even higher into Comcast NBCUniversal’s orbit of executives? Please correct me if this is not about the ongoing shitshow that Nene has brought upon RHOA.
My guess was RHOA and Nene the Monster too. Written with a shrug of my shoulders.
I think it is too….got the “friend” in quotation marks and ugly bald head.
Ugh, too bad.
I’d been hoping too that LVP would be gone for good. Her “charms” wore off for me long ago.
Regardless of who this is about, I’m glad you’ve made clear that
Andy Cohen, er, “Napoleon Bonaparte” doesn’t have the power that many assume he does.I think that many people give him waaay too much “credit” for things that go on…as if he personally devises every storyline, decides who gets the bitch edits, and makes every casting decision. Uh, no. No he does not.
This! I get the feeling he not pleased with the monster that has been created (Nene) either.
Eek! Typo *he’s not* (Napoleon Bonaparte).
This is why I love coming here. I love that we’re able to call out all the shit’s that going down at Bravo and name all the names.
And indeed, Andy Cohen doesn’t have nearly as much power over “The Real Housewives” shows as he and others at certain gossip sites want us to believe he (allegedly) does.
Nene.
Bald head=nene leakes.. this sucks.. she brings nothing to the show.
never be another king refers to Carlos King from Atlanta
oooooooooooo, really good catch.
I say let the monster stay. It gives us someone to laugh at
NeNe Leakes? LVP isn’t bald, and the reference to “king,” absconding? Hmmm. I never get these!
Damn I am too slow. Ya’ll are fast!
Sayyyy w ?
It’s reeks of NeNe
Guess I will be adding RHOA to the list of shows I no longer watch. Nene is just despicable.
Nene. Doesn’t she have another year on her contract? They need to pay her off and get rid of her.
Vicki Gunvalson is filming now. Her and Nene are interchangeable as far as I’m concerned.
amen! Vicki needs to go. She reminds me of the old person who was fun 20 years ago but now is just a crabby hater. They need to revamp all the housewives with younger women, unless my g’ma really is who they are trying to attract. It’s hard to keep watching when the outfits become desperate rather than drool worthy and it’s the same argument for 15ish years. That is why I love Mexican Dynasties. It’s new everything! I actually get to laugh and stay tuned to the show rather than use it as background noise.
I had a sneaking suspicion that this was Nene or LVP. It was confirmed Nene when the [Carlos] king was mentioned. Really well-written piece here. It was a joy to read despite the news being somewhat grim…
Thank you for your work TT!
TT, love her mad skills!
Guuuhhhh. I literally can’t stand how horrible Nene is…to the point where she makes it reaaaaallllyy hard to continue watching RHOA. She’s just an absolutely miserable person who thinks she is so much better than everyone else. She was sweating at the reunion though, breaking that 4th wall calling out how so many were trying to come for a peach. I feel like she wouldn’t have been putting that out there unless she was worried. Judging by this blind, I was completely wrong though. That’s depressing. I hate thinking she has as much pull as the blatantly brags about. She needs a slice of humble pie.
Wow…. TT amazing as always!!! How do the suits love Nene??!!!
Exactly!! What is it about NeNe that they love so much? Her behavior this season was atrocious with Greg and the cast.
The lumbering monster would be knuckle dragging Nene. After she was brought back to RHOA despite having wished the violent act of rape upon an audience member at an event, I knew that I was finally done with her and RHOA.
Nene Leakes a.k.a. the OG and HBIC of RHOA (her words, not mine). Descriptive words all point to the OG (old goat) of RHOA. Ugly, bald head and monster. Yep. Like Frankenstein, the bald head monster will be the death of the franchise. Well, Marlo, the gargoyle, can keep her peach slice, while she is lurking around like a trained gargoyle.
i think marlo is igor in this case lol
Patricia Altschul and Napoleon is Whitney. The other higher up monster … Andy Cohen? The monster lingering .. Ashley. 🤷🏻♀️
Of COURSE they want Nene!!! Villain? Check. Everyone is talking about her sure to be repeated bad behavior? Check. Storyline? Husband with cancer/everybody hates her? Check. What more could they want?
I do not like monsters under my bed or on my TV so I will continue not to watch. I have enough assholes in my life, I don’t need to watch them on television.
Well, it is certainly Nene in my mind, and this is quite depressing to me as I was wanting to watch Porsha’s mommy hood next season and see where Cynthia’s and Tanya storylines took them. I will not be plugging RHOA into my dvr. Done. Finished. I guess I need to thank the powers that be that they are slowly but surely whittling down my realty t.v. show addictions.
I think the same about Atlanta and Beverly Hills as well. I am done with watching them as they have gotten so hateful. I still love reading the recaps though!
Late to the party but I instantly thought Wendy Williams and bald headed Kevin Hunter . Wendy and staff were said to be terrified of his presence on set but updated news he has now been fired and left the WWS
Wow this just changes the course of all these shows and Beverly Hills is giving us the example of how its going to be, ruthless to our faces and change on each other.. . Wooooooyyyyyyyyy
My guess is Nene as well.
Though…Frankenstein wasn’t killed by his monster at the end of the book.
