How to Watch

Tune in to WWHL on Bravo Sunday through Thursday and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo App.

When it comes to famous Bravo quotes, few come to mind as quickly as "I need Andy and a camera." It was originally said by a producer looking for Andy Cohen during The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 10 Reunion Part 3, but in the six (!) years since, it's become so much more than one viral moment. It inspired our newest merch — an everyday t-shirt and a can-shaped glass — because we wanted to be able to commemorate the moment at home, and also everywhere else. 

"I need Andy and a camera" may have originated in a specific situation, but it's such a good line that it instantly transcended the boundaries of the moment. It's dramatic. Iconic. Fun to say. It's the ideal phrase for Bravo fans to have in their back pockets. It indicates that something worthy of TV is happening... Or, at the very least, that there's something going on that you'd like to talk to the Watch What Happens Live host about. Relatable!

It's up there with "Don't be all uncool" from LuAnn De Lesseps on The Real Housewives of New York City and Chanel Ayan's "Period. Dot." in The Real Housewives of Dubai when it comes to 'Wives-related one-liners that quickly worked their way into a Bravo fan's everyday vocabulary. Basically, it's just a beloved phrase at this point, and it always comes up one way or another.

For example, at BravoCon 2023
