<p>We thought that with the birth of her <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/05/02/mark-zuckerberg-uncle-randi-zuckerberg-asher_n_856376.html">baby</a> and her new company <a href="http://www.rtozmedia.com/">RtoZ Media</a>, famous Facebook sibling Randi Zuckerberg was busy enough--but apparently we thought wrong. In a press <a href="http://www.nbcuniversal.presscentre.com/Content/Detail.aspx?ReleaseID=9856&amp;NewsAreaID=2&amp;ClientID=5">release</a> today, Bravo <a href="http://www.bravotv.com/blogs/the-dish/bravo-announces-new-shows-returning-series">announced</a> a list of new shows, including one produced by Ms. Zuckerberg with the working title <em>Silicon Valley</em>.</p>
<p><!--more-->Ms. Zuckerberg's show is part of Bravo's attempt to better position itself as an innovative channel dedicated to digitally savvy, breakthrough programming. According to the release, the show will put startup kids striving for tech success in the spotlight. "Teaming up with internet entrepreneur Randi Zuckerberg, Bravo captures the intertwining lives of young professionals on the path to becoming Silicon Valley’s next great success stories," it <a href="http://www.nbcuniversal.presscentre.com/Content/Detail.aspx?ReleaseID=9856&amp;NewsAreaID=2&amp;ClientID=5">reads</a>.</p>
<p>The new lineup also includes a show called "Huh?," which will follow the innerworkings of Ben Huh and his staff at <a href="http://www.icanhascheezburger.com/">icanhascheezburger</a>, because Bravo exists in a time fissure where it's still 2006.</p>
<p>Bravo's shows aren't exactly highbrow, but they definitely occupy a specific part of our cultural zeitgeist that we liken to a car crash you can't look away from. Will Ms. Zuckerberg's show be a professional high speed collision, or will her executive producer role allow her to have more control over the image the show projects?</p>
<p>Part of us hopes<em> Silicon Valley</em> will be like the short-lived <em><a href="http://www.bravotv.com/nyc-prep">NYC Prep</a></em> meets <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Real_Housewives">Real Housewives</a>, </em>with lots of backstabbing and gossiping and crying over text messages. "Tom said that Cory told him that Mark said my company will never be as good as his!" How juicy would <em>that</em> be?</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE:</strong></p>
<p>Meet the cast of <em>Silicon Valley</em> <a href="http://www.betabeat.com/2012/04/05/randi-zuckerberg-bravo-reality-show-silicon-valley-cast-04052012/">here</a>.</p>
<p><strong></strong>There's also video! Skip to 1:30 to see a sneak preview of <em>Silicon Valley</em>, with choice quotes like: "Being a geek is like being the new rock stars," and our personal favorite, "Silicon Valley is high school, but it's only the smart kids and everyone has a lot of money."</p>
