Sorry Bravo, but to paraphrase that classic song of 39 years ago from The Smiths: That joke isn’t funny now.

Mere hours after Real Housewives alum Brandi Glanville’s attorneys sent a searing letter to Bravo owners NBCUniversal, Warner Bros Discovery and Shed Media claiming Andy Coeh sexually harassed their client, the Watch What Happens Live! host has responded.

Let’s just say the results are mixed. Or rather, Real Housewives EP Cohen says not sorry, but sorry and admits his behavior with a certain video was “inappropriate.”

NBCU nor Bravo responded to request for response for this latest run at the reality windmill. However, a source with a knowledge of the matter and who has seen the video in question, tells Deadline: “It is totally a joke, he would never do that – he’s gay.”

Not too sure Glanville, who has faced accusations of sexual assault herself from fellow RH star Caroline Manzo, was in on the joke – at least not according to her lawyers Bryan Freedman and Mark Geragos.

“In a video sent by Mr. Cohen to Ms. Glanville in 2022, Mr. Cohen—appearing obviously inebriated—boasted of his intention to sleep with another Bravo star that night while thinking of her and invited her to watch via Facetime,” the legal duo wrote today to NBCU, WBD and Shed.

“Mr. Cohen was Ms. Glanville’s boss at the time and exercised complete and total control over her career,” Freedman and Geragos add, in fairly reserved language for them. “This was an extraordinary abuse of power that left Ms. Glanville feeling trapped and disgusted. It is inconceivable that Mr. Cohen remains in his post in spite of this behavior and harkens back to the bad old days of Matt Lauer and NBC News when profits were prioritized over people.”

Cataloguing an inferno of unscripted sins on reality TV over the years, the correspondence also slams the media giants for “feeding a narrative that Ms. Glanville engaged in serious sexual misconduct” herself.

Not yet suing but clearly positioning themselves to do just that for Glanville (as they have for other reality stars in the Bravoverse of late), Freedman and Geragos want the media giants and Shed to preserve everything.

“With regard to documents, tangible things, and ESI that are created or come into your custody, possession, or control subsequent to the date of delivery of this letter, potentially relevant evidence is to be preserved,” they demand. “You should take all appropriate action to avoid the destruction of potentially relevant evidence.”

Or as Freedman put it in a statement sent to Deadline Thursday on this latest unscripted controversy: “This is yet another example of the abusive practices of the reality TV industry. Mark Geragos and I have heard from thousands of current and former cast members on reality shows about the physical and emotional harm inflicted on them by virtue of their participation. NBC, Bravo, Warner Bros., and Shed Media intentionally obscure their legal rights, bind them to illegal contracts, and knowingly cause them to suffer in silence. We know there are untold numbers of innocent victims who have yet to tell their stories or seek legal redress. We encourage all of them to contact us and join our growing team as we fight for change in this sordid industry.”

That’s getting real.
