“These men and women are hysterical,” Ryan said on his radio show during an interview with Andy Cohen, beloved Bravo personality and Executive Vice-President of Original Programming and Development. “They grew up together, and are living in Southern California, and they’re trying to balance their social lives and work lives. Some of the mare hot, and some of them are not so hot, but funny.”

Cohen added, “They also spend a lot of money. You know it’s great because Bravo is always putting a spotlight on different affluent lifestyles. This is a group of people that doesn’t exist on television anywhere, and thats another reason that I’m excited to do the show. Its new, and different.”
