1
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: Stay tuned, We'll be right back after these quick ads. Hey,

2
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: rain drop today's episode of Reality with the King. Yes,

3
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm counting down the top five best reality shows of

4
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Look, this year has been amazing. It's

5
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: been fantastic. And before we you know, celebrate Santa Claus,

6
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: the cookies and some milk. Yes, look at cookies, we

7
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: also got to celebrate the shows that I feel were

8
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: the best of this year. I normally do this on Twitter.

9
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: So some of the past winners of the best reality

10
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: shows have been The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, BT Presents,

11
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: The Encore, and Love and Marriage Huntsville. So who's going

12
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: to make the list today? Who is going to be

13
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: number one? So before I kick things off, I got

14
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: to make sure that you guys understand the rules.

15
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: Okay. So there's a lot of shows that have aired.

16
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,279
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two, and there's a lot of shows

17
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: that are currently airing in.

18
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty two.

19
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: But in order for this to be fair, the entire

20
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 1: season has to rap before twenty twenty two ends.

21
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: Okay.

22
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: So for example, you all know my favorite reality show

23
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: on Bravo right now is The Real Housewives Epotomac. Okay,

24
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: but the entire season isn't going to rap by the

25
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: end of this year, so I can't add them to

26
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: my list. I mean, the guy is would they be

27
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: on the list based on these few episodes I've been watching?

28
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: I don't know. I guess you have to wait and

29
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 2: see next year.

30
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: But a good example is if a show has culminated okay,

31
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: it's season without finishing the reunion, then yes it can

32
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: make the list because technically the season finale means that

33
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: the season has ended. So those are the rules that

34
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: I wanted to display before y'all reading for filth on Twitter,

35
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: like y'all do all the time. Child, although y'all give

36
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: me props too, so let's be clear. So before I

37
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: give you my top five best reality shows of twenty

38
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: twenty two, I want to first wish all of you

39
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: a happy holidays. And now that Reality with the King

40
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: is taking a little break for the holidays, so we'll

41
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: be back in January with all all new episodes, and baby,

42
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: we got some exclusives for you. You do not want

43
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: to miss these episodes that's dropping in January. Yes, So,

44
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: without further ado, here is Carlos Kings Top five best

45
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 1: reality shows of twenty twenty two. Coming in on number

46
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: five is going to be Rue Paul's Drag Race All

47
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: Stars Season seven.

48
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: Yes, So I know.

49
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: I don't talk about Rue Paul's Drag Race a lot

50
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: on this podcast, but it is truly one of my

51
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: favorite shows. It's so good, it's so juicy, and the

52
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: All Star Season seven was exceptional because we got a

53
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: chance to see some of these R Star queens compete

54
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: and live it up, and I loved everything about it.

55
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: I mean, we're talking about Monet Shake kole A, like

56
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: Jinx mont Soon, We're talking about some of the best

57
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: drag queens in the history of the franchise. I really

58
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: wasn't feeling the regular season of All Just keep the real.

59
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: I wasn't feeling the regular season of Rue Paul's Drag Race.

60
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 2: Child, I'll stop watching it. I just wasn't into it.

61
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: And I damn sure it was not into the celebrity

62
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: version of RuPaul's Drag Race either. Child wasn't into that, sorry,

63
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: But what I was into, Honey, was All Stars Season seven.

64
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: Again.

65
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: You had Trinity, the Tough, Shae kool Ai, Roger Evy,

66
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: Jada Essence Hall. I mean you had some of the

67
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: best queens that the franchise has ever seen. And I

68
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: am a you Mongous shay koula fan like who mong is.

69
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: And I really thought Miss Thing was going to take

70
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: the crown until she just started to not have some

71
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: of the best moments. And little did I know that

72
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: Monet Baby Monetue was better than I anticipated, and she

73
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: definitely blew my wig off.

74
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: I thought Moneue was like child.

75
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: I mean not saying she should have won, because I

76
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: definitely think Jinx Montu was deservingly the winner because she

77
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: was so funny and she was just so great. And

78
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: the comedy, I mean, Miss Think gave you a good

79
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: old joy Behar comedy action. I thought Jinks Mons, I

80
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: mean was everything, was everything. But when it comes to money,

81
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: who won second place? She blew me away? And I

82
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 1: just thought she was fantastic. And the All Stars version

83
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: of Drag Race, to me, is the best of the

84
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: best because it's nice to see our favorite queens just.

85
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 2: Go out there and make magic happen.

86
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: So coming in at number five is RuPaul's Drag Race

87
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: All Stars season seven. Coming in at number four, it's

88
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: Married to Medicine, Married to Medicine, will forever be the

89
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: most underrated show on Bravo.

90
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 2: Is the most sleptone show on Bravo.

91
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: It's the show that you guys aren't watching, and I

92
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: do not understand why. I mean, I mean, I got

93
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: my theories, but we'll talk about that later. Married to

94
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 1: Medicine is truly one of the best shows on Bravo

95
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: and truly one of the best reality shows. It is

96
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: consistently good, It is consistently great. Those ladies, let's talk

97
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: about real friendships. The things that we all love about

98
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: Marathion Medicine is what we were hoping to see on

99
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: other reality shows, which is those ladies are friends on

100
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: and off camera, and their issues are rooted deeply. It's

101
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: not just like, Okay, let's all have an agenda and

102
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: go in reading each other for Phil and let's all

103
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: set up one person to take the fall this season,

104
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: and let's all have an alliance to really make sure

105
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: that one person iced out the group so they can

106
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: get fired. Maritime Medicine doesn't operate in that way, and

107
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: that's the reason why the fans love the show, and

108
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: that's the reason why they have a consistent audience. I

109
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: do want their audience to grow because they deserve to

110
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: have the same ratings as the Housewise franchise. It's really

111
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: that good. I mean, we're talking about the amazing Doctor Heavenly, Quad, Toya.

112
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's an all star cast, and they give

113
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: you their real lives, they give you their real issues

114
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: with their husbands. They do the best at casting new people.

115
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: I loved Audra, who was one of the new women

116
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: that was brought into the fold, honey, when she chin

117
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: checked Toya and Toya said, bitch, not today, and they

118
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: always got to a little scuffle until Toya was reminded, girl,

119
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: don't you go back to you work?

120
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 2: Season one.

121
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: This season was fantastic, And I know that y'all have

122
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: this love hate relationship with Quad, but when Quad is

123
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: on the screen, you can't not undermine her greatness. I

124
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: liked Quad soliloquy when she told the girls call me

125
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra because I did it my way, not Usher's

126
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: my way, Honey, Frank Sinatra. I thought that was funny.

127
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: I think Quat is hilarious. I'm still trying to get

128
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: warmed up to Anila. I still feel like she's a

129
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: sore thumb out of the group. I feel like that

130
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: was a hire to replace the culture that Mariah Hawk

131
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: and her husband brought.

132
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 2: Listen. I said it because I think it's true.

133
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: So I I'm still not feeling her.

134
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, and I'm not being mean about it.

135
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: I just think she's on the wrong show. She's on

136
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 1: the wrong show. She's on the wrong show. But you

137
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: have doctor Jackiet, you have Doctor Simone, you have Doctor Contessa.

138
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: You have these amazing women who do such a stellar

139
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: job at making great television.

140
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 2: And they had a great reunion.

141
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: As well, which is why I will never understand why

142
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: they get treated like the step children. And they have

143
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: been on for almost ten years, and I feel like

144
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: the world needs to put some respect a Marria to

145
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: Medus's name because it's truly one of the best shows

146
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: on the network. And what I would like for all

147
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: of my listeners to do, if you have enough time

148
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: during the break, is to truly catch up on this

149
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: amazing show, because I promise you you will not be disappointed.

150
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: Who I hate to interrupt, but stay tuned for more.

151
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: We'll be right back after these quick asss. This is

152
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King. Let's get

153
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: back into the show. Come again, At number three is

154
00:10:53,920 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: Love and Marriage Huntsville. Yeah, come on, Hunt, this has

155
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: been one of the best seasons of Love and Marriage Huntsville.

156
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: It's been a very long season, two Child. Yes, I

157
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: know y'all been said Carlos. This season phils Flock has

158
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: been off forever, and yes, this show has been.

159
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: I can't believe I'm laughing at this because it's funny.

160
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: Love and Marriage Huntsville has been on since I want

161
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 1: to say, either January or February of twenty twenty two,

162
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: so Child, it kind of been on all year round,

163
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: although we had a two month hiatus. AnyWho, this season

164
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 1: of Love and Marriage Huntsville brought some of the best

165
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: moments in reality TV history. I'm talking about, Yes, your

166
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: favorite moment, which will be the Madonnie melee with Miss

167
00:11:55,679 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: Wanda and Melody and Martel and Marceu and all of

168
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: that drama that happened.

169
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 2: I mean, Lord Jesus.

170
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: What was so crazy about that melee is it happened

171
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: in real time on Instagram Live. Y'all watched some of

172
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: it in real time, and then it was the one

173
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: thing y'all kept asking for while we were on hiatus,

174
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 1: which was so interesting to me. Y'all begged for it,

175
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 1: y'all wanted to see more of it, and then what

176
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: y'all saw, y'all tried to read me, how dare you air.

177
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 2: That you can't be a flu's child?

178
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: But not only did we have some crazy moments, I

179
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: also want to talk about some beautiful moments. I mean,

180
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: obviously I want to truly dedicate this entire episode to

181
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: Kimmy Scott. She is the first reality star of an

182
00:12:55,400 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: ensemble cast who has divulged that she had breast answer

183
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 1: and to be able to show that and to show

184
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 1: how she's dealing with it, and to follow the reality

185
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 1: of her telling the able cast members. You know, look,

186
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: as someone who has, as you all know, been producing

187
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: for almost fifteen years, you would think that a lot

188
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: of women on these ensemble shows would have dealt with

189
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: that or talked about it.

190
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 2: You know.

191
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: I think personally, some may have dealt with it and

192
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: chose not to talk about it and listen, I understand

193
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 1: and I respect that as well, because it's not easy

194
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: to be so vulnerable in that moment and to know

195
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: that Kimmy once thought like, Okay, this is my time

196
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: to remove myself from the show because I'm dealing with

197
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 1: something so serious. We all would have obviously understood and

198
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: respected Kimmy's decision if she felt the need to leave

199
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: the show. So the fact that she decided to continue

200
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: on and said, you know what, I have this platform.

201
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: I made a dedication to show my real life. Just

202
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: because I'm dealing with something that came out of nowhere,

203
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: I'm not going to not allow my.

204
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 2: Fans to go on this journey with me.

205
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: And I give Kimmy all the props in the world

206
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: for that. That alone makes this season one of the best,

207
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: because y'all know my formula is follow the reality, Follow

208
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: the reality, and Kimmy's bravery has really empowered me to

209
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: continue that message and to allow my cast to feel

210
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: comfortable with the production in order to be safe enough

211
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: to have these conversations and to go through this moment.

212
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: And I listen, if I could.

213
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: Not love Kimmy anymore, I love her even more now

214
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: for that, And like I said, that alone makes this

215
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: season one of the best of all time. So thank

216
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: you for that, Kimberly as I call her. The other

217
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: moments is this season brought on Tisa's cousin Kikey Baby

218
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: Ki Ki chai Yo.

219
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 2: Keikey and Tisha's.

220
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: Storyline gave you a good old Teresa Melissa Gorgates. I

221
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: mean to see two family members have this serious conversation about,

222
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: you know, just their history. I mean, obviously the difference

223
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: between Keikey and Tisha, Unlike Melissa and Teresa Judais is

224
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: Keikey and Taisha are blood related, their first cousins, and

225
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: that's why their situation has been deep and it's been

226
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: very interesting to watch. What's also been interesting to watch

227
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: will always be how Melody and Martel navigate their lives

228
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: post divorce. You know, we've seen their ups and downs,

229
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: and we've also seen, yes them come back together in

230
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: Florida and have a family vacation and to really see

231
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: the memories that they were creating for their children was

232
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: also special to watch, and I'm hoping that we see

233
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: more of that. Although Child once y'all see this three

234
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: PARV reunion that airs December thirty first, Yes, New Year's

235
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: Eve hosted by yours truly Carlos King.

236
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 2: Child.

237
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: The Melody and Martel saga continues, but I'm not going

238
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: to spoil anything.

239
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 2: The only thing I'm going.

240
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: To say is this three Parker reunion is better than

241
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: last season's reunion. And y'all know last season's reunion was

242
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: ever for three Darling. It was everything little shameless pluck, okay,

243
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: but to wrap up Love and Marriage Huntsville. I mean, look,

244
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: we had Marcel dealing with the cheating accusations. We had

245
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 1: him and Tisha Child in a parking lot having this conversation.

246
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: We saw the sweet Marie Honey deal with linebacker accusations.

247
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: This season brought a stormy versus destiny at the Gallantize event,

248
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: and it also brought Miss Wanda being what Yes Wanda

249
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: who Love and Marriage Huntsville.

250
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 2: It just keeps getting better and better. Coming in at

251
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 2: number two is a gag of the gag gag gag

252
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,360
Speaker 2: gag gags.

253
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: The number two best reality show of twenty twenty two

254
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: is none other than The Real Housewives of Miami Bitch.

255
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: This season, this rebooted season four on Peacock was a

256
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,919
Speaker 1: stellar season tens across the board. Every episode was great,

257
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: And what I love about this show is those ladies

258
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: clopped in to work. Alexia is the force multiplier.

259
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 2: It's her show. It's her show.

260
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: And again it's not to diminish anybody because y'all love

261
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: to say, Oh my god, so Sos the Queen Bee girl.

262
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm talking about somebody who is truly the one that

263
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: is the glue. And when it comes to the Real

264
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: Housewives of Miami, Alexia is the best of the best

265
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: of the best.

266
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 2: She's a joy to watch.

267
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: The scenes between her and her sons and her husband,

268
00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: well now, husband was fantastic television. It was real, it

269
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 1: was deep, it was emotional. She is the best thing

270
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: to happen to that franchise. There is no Real Housewives

271
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: of Miami without Alexia. It's her show now. Although Larsa

272
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: Pippen is my favorite, I just love you so Larsa, however,

273
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: it's still Alexia show. Alexia is the bomb. It's her show.

274
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: It's her show. Larsa is fantastic. I like that Larsa

275
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: came in with all of those Kardashian baggage that a

276
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: lot of people brought onto her and to me, she

277
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: was able to rise to the occasion of being smart

278
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: and subtle with her shade and snarky. And I like

279
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: the fact that we saw her try to live outside

280
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 1: of their shadows, the Kardashians, but also tried to live

281
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 1: outside the shadows of her husband, Scottie Pippen, and what

282
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: it's like for a woman to be married to this

283
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,679
Speaker 1: powerhouse in her early twenties, have multiple kids with this

284
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 1: guy and still decided to leave the situation because it

285
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: no longer served her. I enjoyed watching that. I enjoyed

286
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: watching her get into it with Audriana Honey.

287
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 2: That epic table read.

288
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: Not not a table read like you're an actor, honey,

289
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: where you sit in front of your coworker's honey and

290
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: read the script. I'm talking about a table read, bitch,

291
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: when you are at a table on a reality show

292
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: and you read each other for filth to see. Larsa

293
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: and Audriana go up against each other where she called

294
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: her fake Kim Kardashian her fake booty, and Larsa said

295
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: you look homeless. I mean when I say the read

296
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: was so severe that I had to upload it on

297
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: my Instagram page.

298
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 2: Child, that's how epic that read was. And then they brought.

299
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 1: On new women who I just love and think it's

300
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: so delicious. Gerty is one of the most beautiful women

301
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: on television. She's gorgeous, She's a sweet heart. Doctor nacall

302
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: I love as well, I love her husband. I love

303
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: the fact that they're so rich that they say, bitch

304
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: will buy home and we may sell it in two

305
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: weeks bitch and we don't care, and we.

306
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 2: Got private planes. I love it. I love it.

307
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 1: It brought wealth in terms of monetary wealth, but it

308
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 1: also brought wealth of conversation and knowledge and just it

309
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: truly did represent Miami, and to me clearly because it's

310
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: number two, the Real Housewives of Miami was the best

311
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: Real housewives show of all.

312
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 2: Of twenty twenty two.

313
00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: The moment you all been waiting for the number one

314
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: best reality show of twenty twenty two. Drum roll, please, yeah,

315
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: come outside the fact this is going to break Twitter.

316
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: I already know and guess what. I'm going to stand

317
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 1: ten toes behind my decision.

318
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 2: And no, I'm not biased. I keep it all the

319
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 2: way real.

320
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: The best reality show of twenty twenty two goes to

321
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: Bell Collective.

322
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, honey, let's argue.

323
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: Let's have an rgu mocked honey, not argument, Let's have

324
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: an argue. Honey, I'm ready, let's go toe to toe

325
00:22:53,480 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: with this one. Bell Collective Season two was by far

326
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: the best reality.

327
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 2: Show of twenty twenty two.

328
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: And no, I'm not just saying it because I created

329
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: it and my company, Kingdom Rank Entertainment produces it.

330
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 2: Bell Collective was everything and more.

331
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 1: Bell Collective set off Friday nights on the Oprah Winfrey Network.

332
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: It is the show that people slept on first season

333
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: and listen. I can understand why because when you watch

334
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: season one a Bell Collective and then you get into

335
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: season two of Bell Collective, it does feel like two

336
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: different shows.

337
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 2: Not saying that season one wasn't.

338
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: Great, it was, but it felt like a refresh, a reintroduction,

339
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: if you will. And there is not one person, not

340
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: one who watched Bell Collective this past season that did

341
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: not love the show. We brought on two new cast members,

342
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: Akesha Holly Cologne and Sophia Sogucci Williams to join the

343
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: stellar cast of Marie apsin, Letitia Pearson, LaTrece Rogers and

344
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 1: Tambra Sharie. The reason why Bell Collective not only broke

345
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: the Internet, broke ratings records, it also made people realize,

346
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 1: Carlos King, you're onto something, you are tapping it to

347
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: these unknown territories like Jackson, Mississippi, and finding these gems.

348
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: We're talking about a show where on a two part reunion,

349
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: I as the host of the reunion, gave y'all a

350
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: good old nasty Mari Povich moment where we had a

351
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 1: DNA test. We're talking about a paternity issue this season.

352
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: We're talking about Marie who let us in on what

353
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 1: she was facing dealing with her mom who admitted to

354
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: being addicted to drugs.

355
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 2: I'm talking about real life story.

356
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: We had scandal, we had Tambourth Scherie being told that

357
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:23,239
Speaker 1: her man that she has known since high school was

358
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: having an emotional affair with a decorator.

359
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a soap opera.

360
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: It gave y'all good old Biblica, Fox and Generations. It

361
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 1: gave y'all good old Victor Newman on Young and the Restless.

362
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a soap opera. Of these soap operas,

363
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: we're talking about Latrees dealing with Smokey Robinson.

364
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sorry her husband, Cliff, who wanted.

365
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: Shade, who wanted to have a baby, and she stood

366
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: up for herself and said, I'm not ready right now,

367
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 1: because a bitch is selfish and she wants to make

368
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: her millions and she wants to live her life. Yes,

369
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: you may be older, but I'm still young. I'm in

370
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: my thirties and I'm in my prime. And Latrees was

371
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 1: on her young Miami. Latrees was giving y'all young Miami

372
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: dating Diddy. That's how that relationship was this season, and

373
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: she dealt with it in a true way. We're talking

374
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: about how the New Ladies. Aikeisha told the girls, I'm

375
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: the queen of Jackson and Farish Street being a place

376
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: where African Americans back in the day had ownership of properties.

377
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: We gave y'all a good educational moment. We give y'all

378
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: a good old PSA, honey, a good PBS. The Collected

379
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: was everything and more, and it is no surprise that

380
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 1: the network, thank you Lord Jesus, believed in the show

381
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: to say we're gonna bring it back.

382
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 2: They brought it back.

383
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 1: It broke ratings records, and they em meet immediately ordered

384
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:01,919
Speaker 1: another season.

385
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 2: And this is the gag.

386
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: So look, we're filming season three right now. Baby, y'all

387
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 1: ain't seen nothing yet. That's all I'm gonna say. But

388
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: let's get back to Bell Collective. Season two. It was

389
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: truly refreshing to watch a show filled with women who

390
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: were real and I'm even gonna be honest when I

391
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: say this, not that I lie, but I'm just gonna

392
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: keep it all the way real again. The reason why

393
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 1: people love Bell Collective is because it's refreshing to see

394
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 1: a reality show where people aren't trying to get a moment,

395
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 1: they're living in the moment. And one thing that I

396
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: try to execute along with my team of producers is

397
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 1: follow the reality. Follow it because I promise you it's

398
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,959
Speaker 1: much better than what you're trying to orchestrate on paper.

399
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 2: And Bell Collective is a show.

400
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 1: Where you have these regular women in Jackson, Mississippi, along

401
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: with their husbands and partners, truly give their best to

402
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: show the world who they really are. And I get

403
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: emotional every time I think about the show. It's now

404
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: a show where I get stopped in the streets and

405
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 1: people are like, bitch, you did that with Bell Collective

406
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: and I'm like, no, we did that. I will never

407
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: take full credit for the success of my shows. It

408
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: takes a village. It takes a village to really make

409
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: a great show. And the success of Bell Collective is

410
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: not only my success, it's the success of my team

411
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: of producers. The wonderful executives at the network who believed

412
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: in it and push us to make great televice, but

413
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: also to the cast who showed up every day to

414
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: give their authentic lives. And as we go into watching

415
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: more reality shows in twenty twenty three, I'm hopeful that

416
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: people can look at Bell Collective as the blueprint and

417
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: the DNA of how you do a show, and you

418
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: do it right, all right, y'all, And there you have it,
