Matrix This

Get ready for the Approval Matrix, a new television series from Bravo that literally rips a page from New York Magazine. The in-development show will feature four rotating pundits who categorize that week's pop culture news into the four quadrants employed by the magazine: Highbrow Brilliant, Highbrow Despicable, Lowbrow Brilliant and Lowbrow Despicable. Bravo (which, by the way, fits somewhere between the Lowbrow Brilliant and Lowbrow Despicable on the grid) says that "celebrity guests" (translation: Bethenny Frankel) will visit the show to offer their own opinions on news. Best Week Ever, anyone? [The Wrap]
