Here’s why Andy Cohen won’t release more ‘Housewives’ amid coronavirus

Andy Cohen isn’t releasing “Real Housewives” episodes early, despite fans begging him to do so amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Fans had been petitioning the Bravo honcho — who himself recently tested positive for coronavirus — on social media for episodes of of the two upcoming franchises, “The Real Housewives of New York” and “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” as soon as possible to keep them entertained during self-quarantine.

“The issue is there’s only a certain amount of episodes totally color-corrected and locked right now, for both of those shows,” he explained on SiriusXM’s “Reality Checked with Amy Phillips.”

“I think for ‘New York’ there’s like, eight or nine done and for ‘Beverly Hills,’ there’s like, five done.

“I think for ‘New York’ there’s like, eight or nine done and for ‘Beverly Hills,’ there’s like, five done. Something like that.”

“If we released all those now, we would wind up screwing ourselves in the end, so that’s the issue,” he continued. “The truth of the matter is, if this is going to go on for a while, just think of how much more we’re going to be ready for ‘New York’ in ten days when it premieres! I just think we need to be focused.” – Source
