'Dirty John': How Bravo went from reality TV giant to exciting maverick in the original series game
After dominating the world of reality television, Bravo is testing the waters with original scripted shows
There was a time when you thought of the television network Bravo and only reality television came to mind. Bravo's reality shows had unparalleled success when it came to unscripted shows - 'Top Chef', 'Vaderpump Rules', 'Project Runway', 'Married to Medicine' as well as the 'The Real Housewives' franchise - that have had multiple seasonal runs, each season often more successful than the last.
