A new 'Mafia' home?
If you were looking to catch "Blonde Charity Mafia" -- the D.C. based reality show featuring local society girls Katherine Kennedy, Krista Johnson and Sophie Pyle — in November, you were disappointed: The show's debut was pushed into 2009.
And if you were looking to catch the show, which wrapped up filming in D.C. in October, on its original channel — Lifetime TV — you'll also be disappointed. Yeas & Nays hears that Lifetime is in final negotiations with The CW to hand off rights to the program, and an announcement is expected within days.
"Blonde Charity Mafia" was originally slated to air immediately after Lifetime's popular show "Project Runway." But the network has been in a legal battle with Bravo TV over "Runway's" airing and the future is unclear, potentially leaving "Mafia" without a popular lead-in during a crucial period when all eyes will be focused on Washington, thanks to Barack Obama's inauguration.
Will this show blow? Will Gossip Girl or 90210 be the lead-in??? Do these people even deserve such high end entertainment as lead-ins???

You know, I hate to say...these folks are pretty fun to hang out with for a night...but you get the sneaky suspicion all the girls have eating disorders...or are Republicans...and what's worse than an attractive female Republican? Hot poker up the ass, is all I can think of...
this show sounds gayer than harrison ford's earring
every time something about a dc reality show is posted, i get this knot in my stomach and wonder why i don't have my own show yet. and let me tell you, it would be so much better than capital hills and this crap.
but patrick, nothing is gayer that harrison ford's earring.
They appear generic if a bit arrogant, like someone who uses arrogance as a substitute for intelligence, to be precise; not exactly your ordinary bimbos but not particularly out of the common way either; I'd say, three steps above the trailer park and no more. I know appearances can often deceive, so go figure.
What are the odds the show turns out good after all yet?
the odds are 100%.
Girls, if you're reading this understand:
we don't hate you because you think you're pretty (this is coming from about the hottest motherfucker astride this blue-green orb) but because you're just so goddamned vapid.
Michael--
They will never read this. They will never know you exist and they will never consider themselves vapid.
On the other hand, they know they all cling on KK's coattails and they girls have had several internal falling outs. One of them is pretty, the rest rather boring (this is not coming from a sense of my own grandeur but rather a statement of fact). Oh, and the non pretty ones know they aren't pretty but they have money and can drink you under the table, so they think it doesn't matter.
The show is miserable...
