Why are all Bravo shows anti-climatic? Just watched the Top Chef finale (dont worry, I wont spoil it), and it was like, woo-hoo, you won… Yay… Clap, clap… Golf clap…Roll credits. The same with Step It Up and Dance (yes, I love dance shows, bite me!). It was like, Yay! After all this hard work that you have put in, all we are going to do is say you are the winner and roll credits. No balloons dropping from the sky. No confetti, maybe champagne, but maybe not. BORING! The letdown of the finale is SO brutal it almost makes me not want to watch any more of their lineup. What’s the point when all you get is a pat on the back over the credit roll?
The only finale I have seen on Bravo that is good is Project Runway, and thats just because the winner’s are usually the most flamboyant and dramatic ones, so they make their own finale. Seriously, Bravo. You give away $100,000 like its nothing, and then you dont even have the decency to have confetti drop from the ceiling? All you win on Dancing with the Stars is that stupid disco ball and they still dish out confetti and dance music. Note to Bravo: you carry the most dramatic and viewer intriguing reality shows to date…throw in some music and make your Top Chefs and Dancers and Project Runners feel like the $100,000 they are…and dont make us viewers feel like we’ve missed the party.
