CHARLESTON-BASED SHOW DRAWS LARGEST AUDIENCE OF NEW SEASON

|| By FITSNEWS || This week’s episode of Bravo TV’s Charleston, S.C.-based reality show Southern Charm drew 944,000 viewers – its best ratings performance of the current season and its largest audience since 2014’s season finale.

“So close to a million people and I wasted an hour we’ll never get back on those psycho losers?” our founding editor’s riotously reflective platonic compadre mused.

Well … yes.  Yes you did.  All y’alls.   Anyway … this week’s episode focused on former S.C. treasurer Thomas Ravenel‘s disastrous 2014 U.S. Senate campaign.  And of course the ever-entertaining relationship between the 52-year-old playboy and his 23-year-old baby momma/ girlfriend Kathryn Dennis – which we’ve recently been provided an update on.

(More on that soon …)

The show also aired as another one of the show’s stars – wealthy heiress Patricia Altschul – threatened legal action against a Charleston, S.C.-based blog over some unflattering criticism leveled against her.

Drama, drama, drama …

I can’t say I’ll be a contributor to boosting their rating. Not much into reality tv. Esp. not this kind.

Great, 0.3% of the population has nothing better to do on Monday nights than to watch this group of narcissists pretend they’re not narcissists. I’d suggest Fast and Loud if you must watch TV.

LMAO – I can’t imagine a worse way to spend a Monday night! I didn’t know what night it came on until you posted it.

I had to google it.

<—– dying laughing. I started googling, but it just got too bizarre. I found myself looking at the episodes and wondering why people watch that? I clicked off.

LMAO – really did have to Google, but never to the point of time/day ;)

You are funny SCBlues! We may not agree on everything, but I think we try to keep it real!

The Colonel April 22, 2015 at 3:51 pm

The only junk TV I watch is NCIS, Fast and Loud and Top Gear. I worked on one of Arthur Ravenel’s campaigns years ago, T-Rav was a punk back then and he hasn’t improved with age.

Praying for Monday Nite Football, even pre-season.

I don’t even like football unless it’s live, but I think I could tolerate that better than Southern Charm, which isn’t so charming.

FITS – did you see the post last night from T-Rav on Facebook? Sounds like he’s missing your friendship, and thinks you scuttled his Senate campaign after you guys broke up. Also says some of your last post about him was partly true, but included numerous other falsehoods. (FB Post since deleted) What say you?

Sic, are you on the “Southern Charms” payroll directly or do you earn points for flogging it per mention?

Is that a picture of Katherine Dennis or a picture of a wax sculpture of her?
