Bravo heads to 'The Big Apple' with THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW YORK CITY, featuring an elite and powerful set of New York socialites as they juggle their careers and home lives with busy calendars packed with charity fund-raising galas, the social whirl of the Hamptons, and interviews for elite private schools.
Follow five glamorous women - Alex, Bethenny, Jill, LuAnn, and Ramona (in the second season we also have new cast member Kelly Killoren Bensimon) - as they balance motherhood, demanding careers, and a fast-paced social calendar. These driven and ambitious women show everyone what it takes to make it in the upper echelon of society, where money and status are an essential way of life.
Last week we
reported about the new end-of-March date for A&E's release of
The Real Housewives of New Jersey - Season 1 on DVD. Now a pair of pre-order listings added to Amazon tells us that they're bringing their 2008 reality series in on the home video act, with
May 25 launches of
The Real Housewives of New York City - Season 1 (3 discs, 427 minutes) and
The Real Housewives of New York City - Season 2 (4 discs, 560 minutes). Each has a list price of $29.95 SRP per title. Extras mentioned for the first season include Lost Footage and "Watch What Happens"; we expect similar material on the second season set (but the listing at Amazon doesn't presently mention it). Cover art isn't displayed there yet, so stay tuned for that.
