Tonight is the big night -- Season 2 of "The Real Housewives of Orange County" begins. I am genuinely excited about it because it is an addictively weird mix of jaw-drop meets fun meets soap opera meets reality.

The OC ladies were in full force at the NBC Cable party at the Ritz in Pasadena Friday night, along with Jaclyn "Shear Genius" Smith and the whole gang from "Top Design." It was like seeing Peter Brady at the Partridge's house -- it made no sense but I couldn't turn away.

With the "Real Housewives of Orange County", what you see is definitely what you get. What did I get? A face-full of boobs!

We made a ton of announcements to the TV critics, among them that "Top Chef 3" will take place in Miami, we're doing a reality show with Paula Abdul, and yours truly is hosting Bravo's first live, interactive web show, "Watch What Happens." It will premiere right after Top Chef on Wednesday night and feature the chef that's just been eliminated and another Chef or Judge answering your emails, texts and calls. This week Gail Simmons joins me and the eliminated chef! Log on and send us a message. Give us a hard question about Marcel, how to make a killer amuse bouche, or global warming.

I was wondering why LA felt especially buzzy yesterday until Liza pointed out that a combo of MLK-day/Globes made it a double holiday bonanza. Fred Segal must've been bumper-to-bumper with celebrants. I started my day right, joined for breakfast with none other than Sir Tim Gunn. That was my protection against having a sucky MLK day, and it worked!
