I kind of dislike all of the housewives. It's the men on this show who are so much more likable and sane.

Just my opinion, so don't be mad at me. </description></item><item><title>Rename the show 'Desperate Husbands'</title><link>http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/01/12/1738482.aspx#1743537</link><pubDate>Tue, 13 Jan 2009 16:46:41 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1743537</guid><dc:creator>Carole, Seattle, Wash.</dc:creator><description>Someone likes Orson?
