“Househusbands Of Hollywood”


I am SO ready. Fox Reality Channel is kicking off a new show August 15th that is clearly a remixed swagger jacking of Bravo’s “Real Housewives” franchise. It’s called “Househusbands Of Hollywood”. It features five stay-at-home men who run the house while their wives head to work.

The cast of characters: L.A. Dodger Billy Ashley; aspiring actor Danny Barclay; former “A Different World” star Darryl M. Bell, who’s married to “Cosby Show” actress Tempestt Bledsoe (”Ron“); one-time “Gentleman Bandit” star Charlie Mattera, and Grant Reynolds, husband of “Good Day LA” anchor Jillian Reynolds.

Bledsoe says that she and Bell were hesitant about their role on the show, since they’re not married and have no children, but she was persuaded because of the message the show was trying to convey:

“It’s a good time to look at these men for who they really are. For a man to stay at home and take care of his child, that is the most difficult job that there is, and I think it’s time to give them credit for doing that.


Last I checked, neither Tempestt nor Darryl had a particular job–but conveniently, the producer of “Househusbands” is the former producer of Tempestt’s talk show. Tempestt and Darryl aren’t married but have “been together” for 16 years. Regardless, I hear they are a funny couple and I’ll be tuning in.
