I don't know about you guys but I was kind of pissed when I heard that Bravo was considering postponing the second season premiere of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills because Taylor's ex husband had killed himself. In my opinion, he agreed & was paid to do the show so blaming Bravo for his suicide is just ridiculous! The man had 2 previous failed marriages, had anger issues, and from what I hear his business was also failing so whether or not being involved with the show had anything to do with his death, sure, it might have played a small role but it can't take all the blame. It isn't like Andy Cohen killed Russel, he killed himself & honestly, I'd like to see the season & see just what was going on with him to lead to this.
This cast is my favorite so when I read this press release on PINTB today I was very pleased to learn that the season will premiere as scheduled on September 5th but PSA's on suicide will be running during the show which makes sense. I just don't think it's right for people to think that Bravo is trying to capitalize on this man's suicide, the bottom line is that they filmed a show & they paid the people to be on it & it's going to air, period! I also kind of felt that if they chose to postpone or cancel it that they would have been admitting some sort of blame or guilt when they shouldn't have to. People kill themselves everyday but work & life go on without them...they didn't cancel SNL after Phil Hartman killed himself did they? I'm just saying.
