‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ preview: All about Kyle Richards, Lisa Vanderpump, and SUR
How is this for some sort of a twist to the traditional way in which TV shows are promoted? Typically, you use an episode of a popular show to launch a spin-off, and we call it a backdoor pilot. But for “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” having Lisa Vanderpump’s SUR mentioned in the past is simply not enough. Instead, the group from “Vanderpump Rules” is going to be present for what is a two-hour crossover premiere on Monday night that looks to bring you stories of pretty much everyone involved in a lavish party thrown by Kyle Richards. This is going to be a very interesting experiment, or just very annoying to people who want to just watch one show and not the other.
Before you do anything else, just take a look at the full synopsis below to get an idea as to what you can expect:
“The beautiful, wealthy ladies of Beverly Hills and the sexy, dramatic servers of SUR are back for a special two hour crossover event. To celebrate the centennial of Beverly Hills and meet other local business owners, Kyle throws a cocktail party at her home for the city’s Chamber of Commerce. She hires Lisa’s posh restaurant, SUR, to cater the event but in typical fashion, one of her servers begins talking back and Lisa has to send her home before the guests begin to arrive. At the party, Kyle tries to put aside her differences with Yolanda after last year’s explosive reunion, while Lisa struggles to keep tensions down between Brandi and Scheana. After the party wraps up, SUR staffers Stassi, Jax, Katie, Tom and Scheana head out to meet up with Kristen when serious tensions flare up. In an effort to mend her relationship with the group, Scheana invites everyone to her birthday party, but it doesn’t take long for catfights to erupt.”
Knowing obviously that they have something very entertaining here with the primary story, Bravo is understandably being somewhat cagey right now when it comes to what they release from the season premiere. So instead of getting a video all about the party, we instead have Yolanda Foster joining her daughter on a photo shoot. Hey, isn’t this better than nothing?
You can watch the full trailer here to get a better idea what is going to happen come Monday, and we will have some more soon.
