Househusbands of Hollywood (10-3-09)

Househusbands of Hollywood is a new reality show on Fox Reality. The show is about five husbands who stay at home and take care of the house while the wives bring home the bacon. Since the title of the show has Hollywood in it you would think that the couples would be well known Hollywood celebs but that is not true. Some of these people I have never seen or heard of in my life.

                                                        Grant & Jillian Reynolds

These two are such a cute couple. She is the co-host of “Good Day LA” and he is an ex marine/aspiring actor. It’s funny to watch these two go through the typical marriage drama. He is a neat freak and likes to keep the house a certain way. She is a free spirit that just enjoys life. Grant takes good care of their 2 year old daughter Ruby while trying to pursue his dream of becoming an actor.

                                               

Tempestt Bledsoe & Darryl M. Bell

They are the most well know couple on the show. At least in the black community. For those of you who don’t know who they are its Vanessa from “The Cosby Show” and Ron Johnson from “A Different World”. Who knew these two had been dating for 16 years. That is a long time to be in the public eye and keep your relationship quiet. They are the only couple on the show that’s not married. The show is called househusbands but they are both always at home. It’s never really clear what they are working on career wise. Hopefully we will see them in something soon besides old re-runs of “The Cosby Show”.

Billy & Lisa Ashley

Billy is an ex baseball player. Lisa’s a make-up artist to the stars and also has her own skin care line. Billy talks care of their two girls, manages the household and also takes orders over the phone for his wife’s skin care line. Lisa is annoying. She doesn’t teach her daughters to respect their father. I am pretty sure that before he was injured his paycheck is what took care of the household and also got her business started. Lisa talks to Billy like he is one of the children. Hopefully one day she will treat him like he should be treated.

 

Danny & Katherine Barclay

 Who the hell is this guy? He is an aspiring actor and his wife’s a lawyer. All this guy does is seat at home and bitch about how he can’t get an acting job. Doesn’t he know it’s a recession? You can tell Danny is one of those nerds who got picked on in school. He is always in competition with Grant about everything. All his wife talks about is having children. Hopefully he will just get a job because nobody watches this show any way so he won’t be discovered.         

Charlie Mattera

I have no clue who Charlie Mattera is either. His wife does not want to be on camera. I don’t even know her name. For some reason she wants to be anonymous. Maybe because all this guy takes about is how he used to rob banks. His best friend is Ryan O’Neal. That’s all we need to know.

Overall I think the show is boring and not that entertaining. I have been watching for weeks but it’s never anything to blog about. Maybe if the show had actual Hollywood celebrities then it would be entertaining to watch. Don’t know if it will be a season two of Househusbands of Hollywood but I don’t think I will be watching.
