The cable network Bravo has gone ahead and ordered a full season of The Real Housewives of D.C., according to the Hollywood Reporter. The local iteration of the series marks the fifth locale for the Real Housewives franchise. Production is said to be already underway, with a series premiere slated for 2010.

Oh for the love of Pete. We Love DC caught this post over at Reality Blurred that Bunim-Murray, the producers of the Real World, have started seeking production assistants in the area in earnest (unlike earlier this year, when they were only searching for a production accountant, they're now seeking a slew of people who know the city and can work with camera crews). As they note, unless they're looking to produce a brand new series, it looks like the rumor mill about a Real World season finally happening in D.C. is about to kick into high gear. Between Blonde Charity Mafia, Real Housewives of D.C., and the friggin' Real World (not to mention a new Owen Wilson film that's scheduled to being filming in June, partly in the District), it looks like we won't be able to swing a jumbo slice without hitting a camera crew.

Bravo has gone and done it. Producers are currently casting for the newest franchise in the Real Housewives series, and they're doing it here. From the release: "We're tapping personalities who are among Washington D.C.'s influential players, cultural connoisseurs, fashion sophisticates and philanthropic leaders - the people who rub elbows with the most prominent people in the country and easily move in the city's diverse political and social circles." What I don't get: are there actually any housewives in D.C.? Don't the women here all work?
