Bravo's "Real Housewives" franchise is such a con. [View all]

It's a geographical estrogen-spurred worldwide wrestling match in an endless loop.

The participants don't realize that the producers are setting them up for tasteless cat fights. Table-flipping. Family wars. Insults that are outspoken hit jobs or clothed in silk. Divorces. Weddings. Jail. And introducing the children to join the franchise when they get older.

Some of them are real bitches and then act dainty and ladylike, "I would NEVER do/say that . . . . "

And elevating these flawed individuals to be celebrities. Bravo has public relations for some of them. The worse you are, the more the fans love you.

Andy Cohen sits during the recap at the end of each season, preening his housewives, pretending innocence on his and Bravo's part.
