Former Real Housewife Bethenny Frankel is launching her new daytime talk show next week. "Bethenny" will debut on Monday on six Fox O&O's including New York City and Los Angeles. Ellen Degeneres is an executive producer and Bethenny recently stopped by her show to promote her new show.
The show will air for six weeks as part of a test run. If it does well, it will be picked up for a full season in syndication. Sometimes these test runs work as in the case of The Wendy Williams Show. But sometimes, they bomb. Just ask Craig Kilborn, whose show wasn't picked up two years ago, and Fran Drescher, whose test run didn't get enough ratings last summer.
Based on a popular documentary film, this weekly series follows people who are in online relationships. They meet their longtime loves with the help of the show, but things aren't always what they seem.
