Big Rich Texas
The style network is bringing Big Rich Texas back for season two!
And people, let's keep in mind as we watch this Season, that this is NOT a reality show. Style calls BRT a "docu-drama". I call it a soap opera where people use their real names but are not totally playing themselves...
From Wikipedia:
"In film, television programming and staged theatre, docudrama is a documentary-style genre that features dramatized re-enactments of actual historical events. As a neologism, the term is often confused with docufiction.
Contrary to docufiction, which basically is documentary, filmed in real time, “reality” in docudrama is filmed at a time ulterior to the events it portrays. It is based on narrative and fiction. Docudrama producers sometimes use as location for a realistic setting (fiction) a natural stage - see stage (theater) -, the place itself where the dramatised events are supposed to have occurred: it may mean a false documentary or journalistic narrative, like The War of the Worlds (radio drama), by Orson Wells."
The drama is bigger and so is the cast – with the addition of a NEW cast member! Party planner, DeAynni, and her two teenage daughters, Shaye & Amber join the country club set and needless to say, not all the ladies are thrilled with her arrival and they are not afraid to show it. This season, the conflict between Pam and Leslie continues as Pam follows through on her mission to expose Leslie as a fraud, leaving Leslie’s relationships with best friend Bon and goddaughter Kalyn in jeopardy.
As Pam reigns at the top of Dallas’ social ladder, Leslie is more determined than ever to take revenge and destroy Pam once and for all. The drama doesn’t stop at the mothers…both Grace and Maddie are desperate for their independence and will do anything to get it, even if it means they have to lie and sneak around in the process. Whitney and Tyler return from Seattle after a painful breakup, and jealousy turns ugly when Tyler openly flirts with other girls, sending Whitney into a fury that has major consequences.
Big Rich Texas was the network’s second most-watched new series ever after Tia & Tamera, and ranked as one of 2011’s fastest growing new series across all cable networks, increasing +74% from premiere to finale among Total Viewers.
