'Real Housewives of Atlanta'
(9PM, Bravo) series premiere
Bravo's headed down south to Hotlanta for the latest behind-the-scenes look at how the rich and desperate-to-be-famous live.

Among the Atlanta 'Housewives': Lisa, who operates real estate, fashion and modeling businesses, is mother to three kids and wife of an NFL linebacker; DeShawn, who's heavily involved in local charities, is mom to three boys and married to NBA-er Eric Snow; and Sheree, a single mom who's launching her own clothing line.

Though the women have lots in common, that, of course, doesn't mean there won't be plenty of headbutting drama, as in tonight's birthday party for Sheree, where the celebration takes a turn for the catty.

The buzz on '90210,' the 'Office' (not) spin-off and more

Twice a year, TV critics from across the country gather in Los Angeles for the Television Critics' Association press tour.

For two weeks the press gets the chance to chat with the actors and writers from every network and cable channel -- and showered with useless freebies (an oven mitt promoting 'Coolio's Rules'!) -- all to better understand the season's new shows.

Here are the best boob tube tidbits we gathered at the latest TCAs.

Has Bravo gone to the well once too much? It sure seems that way. Hot on the success of The Real Housewives of New York City, which was inspired by The Real Housewives of Orange County, Bravo is now rolling out The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Now, listen, I've watched the first two series; I admit that they are addictive. And they're convenient because Bravo re-airs them again and again, but come on! This is like Coffee-Mate coming up with all these flavored creamers. Do we really need so many creamers?
