TV series?


The Real Housewives is a reality series, following the lives of relatively affluent housewives and professional women in the suburban or urban areas of several American cities, with the suffix of the title taking on the name of that metropolitan region. The series air on Bravo in the United States, on Slice in Canada, and various other broadcasters internationally.

Desperate Housewives is an American television comedy dramedy-mystery series created by Marc Cherry and produced by ABC Studios and Cherry Productions. It aired on ABC from October 3, 2004 to May 13, 2012.

Friends is not actually an Housewife series, but if you look deeper into the ethics, morale and the meaning of the shows, you will see that what the producers of the show is trying to do, is to manipulate you. So remember until next time, don't watch Friends.

Lesson of the day; don't be late for school.
