In the last three weeks, I?ve had just as many people tell me that the world is sleeping on the reality show that (was and) is Atlanta. All of them maintained that BET?s Baldwin Hills was nothing but The SWATS ? in the ?80?s. Harlem Heights? That?s Atlanta in the early 90?s when the music first blew up. In the new millennium, Comcast seems to have finally caught up and is gifting our dear city with an entire ?reality? network.
Comcast likes Atlanta to the point that it?s started an entire on-demand network focused on the city and the people in it.
Real City TV/Atlanta, which starts next week is the first time the cable provider has built an entire lineup of reality programming ? 25 shows ? around a major city. Should the network prove successful, Comcast has plans to create other ones in other cities, said Larry Schweber, a Comcast spokesman. (Source)
