Are ya'll as obsessed with Southern Charm on Bravo as I am? God, I LOOOOVE it- just like I love cobblestone streets, polo, gas lamps, and old money...you know, stuff you can only get in Charleston!!!
So for those unfortunate souls who have yet to tune in...let me catch you up. The show takes place in Charleston, SC. It follows around a bunch of single people, but focuses more on the men, cause let's be honest- they are more dysfunctional and therefore, more entertaining. The men range in age from their late 20's to 50. The dirtiest bird of them all is Thomas Ravenel who is the former Treasurer of South Carolina before he went to jail for selling coke. Thomas comes from and old, rich, political family. He thinks he's a southern gentlemen, but he's really just a super sketch ball. There are other guys who are also rich, don't really work much (except for Craig, who's a lawyer and seems rather put together). The main women of the show- Jenna (who plays the "against type" southern woman and has a modified mohawk) and Cameran (who was on the Real World San Diego and is a total peach) are refreshingly normal and don't back stab each other or air their dirty skanky laundry on air...they leave that to the men.
The star of the show is not even a main cast member. Her name is Kathryn and we are told over and over that she comes from two powerful South Carolina political families (which should mean something, but this isn't 1854 so...not really). Kathryn, aged 21, is slutty, immature, most-likely illiterate, and sounds like she is on qualudes when she speaks. She becomes a major player in the story line thanks to her sluttiness, her relationship with the 50 year old Thomas, and her pregnancy scare secondary to his sperm. The best part about Kathryn is that she is really immature, but thinks she is super mature and put together. She pretends that she's the "lady of the house" at Thomas's home and clearly wants to marry for money...despite an almost 30 year age gap. She's pretty much an asshole with zero insight....who also wears the most ridiculous fake eyelashes. Kathryn is everything you would ever want from a Bravo reality star.
Here's a clip. Kathryn lacks the understanding of what "chivalry" means.
