How Can Andy Cohen's Show Ever Get Canceled?

I'm not saying it should be, mind you.

The man is clearly some kind of genius, with his popular programming choices for Bravo, which include his very own chat show on that very same channel.

But if the ratings ever tumble, what will happen to his show?

I mean, how does the guy in charge of the channel handle the fate of his own future appearances on that channel?

Will Andy wake up to a text from himself saying, "Sorry, kid, but I'm not renewing it. Love you, lunch."

Will someone else -- say, some dark alter ego in the closet -- have to swoop in to tell Andy the programmer to tell Andy the TV star that it's kaput?

Or will Andy the programmer simply decide that, no matter what the ratings, this show is a keeper for the ages and Andy the TV star will never get yanked?

If I were Andy the programmer, I'd go for that last choice. I'd renew it longer than The Simpsons and would start planning all kinds of prequels, sequels, and spin-offs, as well.

But what do I know? I'm just Michael the kvetch.

Cutie Pie, Andy, can do whatever he wants, whenever and wherever. I'll be following him. A Grandma from Georgia.

He doesn't run the channel. He has a lot of bosses actually. Once the ratings tumble, so will he... (And it will be a visible fall when his own show is pulled off-air).

Although more likely, he will move to/ be poached by another competitive cable network (E ?) while his mojo is still strong

I love when he does the Housewives reunion shows and he acts like he has nothing to do with the insanity. (Also he's very cute.)

Jack E. Jett

I wonder if he keeps getting gigs at Bravo by fucking himself. And can we see it on XTube?

Viv

And doesn't Anderson guest host?

Rumored Regis replacements: Andy Cohen, Ryan Seacrest, Mark Conseulos.Hmm. Starting to sounds like a gay bathhouse.

mjm

how many TV gigs does Seacrest have, 10? (let's see, American Idol, E! News, New Years Eve, the Disney World Xmas Parade, that's four so far...)

and I'm not buying his "romance" w/ Mormom Julianne Hough. you know he's probably fucking her brother (which probably isn't sitting too well with Mark Ballas)
