While interning here on Moms Talk Network, I have been doing a lot of research on Reality TV.
I have been studying up on different points of view, old shows, new shows, etc. It seems that I have found my “New Favorite” reality show ….. “Husbands Of Hollywood” . Have you ever heard of it? Well, I hadn’t until I discovered my final bit of Reality Show trivia for this weeks series.
“Did You Know?”
Did you know that there are 2 channels devoted 24 hours a day 7 days a week to Reality TV shows? Fox Reality Channel is only found online @ Foxreality.com and Zone Reality UK which can be found online and on some Satellite networks in the UK.
Ok, so back to the “Husbands Of Hollywood”. This show stars 5 Hollywood couples who have done the unthinkable & SWITCHED ROLES, the women are bringing home the bacon and the men are keeping up with the children, the cooking, the cleaning, etc.
- Darryl M. Bell & Tempest Bledsoe ~ You may remember them as “Ron Johnson” from “A Different World” and “Vanessa Huxtable” from “The Cosby Show”. This couple is not married yet and they don’t have any children however they are living together and trying to work out the details of who does what while Tempestt is away filming a movie.
- Grant Reynolds & Jillian Reynolds ~ He is a former Marine and an aspiring actor. She has a very busy career as co-host of Good Day L.A., Weatherwoman for Fox NFL Sunday and she is currently starring in a Nutrisystem Infomercial. Together they have a 2 yr old daughter named Ruby. Grant stays at home with her all day while trying to fit in some “man time” on the motorcycle and go on auditions.
- Danny Barclay & Katherine Barclay ~ He is a former Medical Student at Duke University in NC where they met and eventually married. He dropped out of Medical School to persue his dream in acting. They moved to California where Katherine works as a high-powered attorney at a Hollywood law firm. They don’t have any children yet so Danny spends his time checking off the “to do” list that he receives from Katherine by email everyday and working on his new “Keg-erator”.
- Billy Ashley & Lisa Ashley ~ He is a former Pro Baseball Player for the LA Dodgers. That career was abruptly ended with an injury so he now takes care of his two “Pre-Teen” daughters. Lisa is a makeup artist to A list celebrities & developer of a new skin care line for teenagers. In addition to taking care of his daughters, Billy fields calls and keeps minutes of meetings for his wife’s skin care line.
- Charlie Mattera ~ Ex Con turned actor/screenwriter is married to a prominent psychologist (who must remain anonymous). They introduce us to his Best Friend Ryan O’Neal. Yes, THE Ryan O’Neal. This guy is definitely the most mysterious. His wife leaves him “Hello Kitty” to-do lists every morning. Watching him complete those lists and seeing how he deals with revealing his past to his in-laws will be very compelling.
I cannot wait to watch the rest of this series to see how these men deal with being “Mr. Mom”, but remember I’ll have to watch it online only @ www.foxreality.com.
