I think what it comes down to is that the show was crafted for Bravo's target audience which is not anyone that reads Hacker News. The general silliness of it is a by product of inputting the start-up Silicon Valley theme into there show generator it outputs a flaky drama. The flaky drama core of the show is what makes it a Bravo show. All there other shows have that same core. I changed the channel after 5 minutes.

What would a better start-up show look like?
