LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Anderson Cooper shared that his friend Andy Cohen has been under a lot of scrutiny lately.

The ‘Watch What Happens Live’ host has been slammed with alleged misconduct by several 'The Real Housewives' contestants which could draw the curtains on his career. 

“Every day when I turn on my phone, I see content that Andy Cohen is responsible for. Much more so than any late-night host," he said during an interview with Vulture

The news anchor also felt that the showbiz host "makes it look easy,” but said that “he is paddling really, really fast under the water.”

Cohen faced an outside investigation initiated by Bravo who executive produces all of 'The Real Housewives' franchises.

Last month, the network issued a statement, “The outside investigation into the recent allegations made by Brandi Glanville and Leah McSweeney against Andy Cohen has now been completed, and the claims were found to be unsubstantiated.”

The talk show ‘Watch What Happens Next’ was also renewed through 2025 and 15 of the network's other unscripted reality shows, including 'The Valley,' 'Summer House,' and several 'The Real Housewives' shows including Beverly Hills, Orange County, Miami, New York City, Potomac, and Salt Lake City were given the green signal.

Netizens shared their honest thoughts on the future of Andy Cohen's talk show. 

A user wrote on Facebook, "It's time for all of his shows to go... all they do is hate n fight n shop n eat n go on trips... it's not even entertaining anymore..."

"That RH of any city only last for so long. After awhile people get tired of the drama," another said. 

One slammed, "He peddles garbage shows, pitting people against each other…"

"He has to go along with all housewives," a user joined in. 

Another suggested, "I think Andy needs to dig a little deeper and find something new. The RH franchise is outdated and the woman have become worse by the eposide."

"He does exactly what he gets paid for- trying to make those housewives relevant," another remarked.
