The Real Housewives of Dubai

“Hello, fellow Housewives fans! We’re here to guide you on Bravo’s brave — or amazingly foolish — maiden voyage into the SWANA region for its international expansion … With that said, let’s get into the highly-anticipated debut, which, I must say, was stronger than I anticipated, given what the middling trailer presented. We have a really diverse cast — both in race and ethnicity — and some solid storylines out of the gate. And if you had bet me $100 that the first words on any Bravo show would be “Alhamdulillah,” I would be severely setback in my savings plan to go see Usher’s Vegas residency this summer. We didn’t even get that on Shahs of Sunset.”
