Bravo Announces New Series "Better Half" to Premiere October 2007  7/16/07

BETTER HALF 

Premieres October 2007

Hosted by "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star Susie Essman, the new series "Better Half" puts a new spin on Bravo's reality competition programs that explore creative professions. 

In each episode, the spouses/mates of two trained professionals – such as chefs, comedians, party planners, and hairstylists – square off in competition. The professionals have two days to coach their novice partner to take on their jobs and beat the opposing "better half" in a final challenge. 

Each week, three judges renowned in the featured line of work will assess how well each couple executed the job handoff. Skilled in managing her own "better half," the outspoken and honest Essman will shadow, needle and critique how the couples listen, learn and love without killing each other first.
