So for those who may not be familiar with the celebrity couple, here are a few basic facts about Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin to familiarize you with their backgrounds so that you can enjoy their new reality show. Because the truth is, other than recognizing them as a celebrity couple, some people have no idea who Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin are.
About Lisa Rinna
Lisa Rinna may best be recognized for her two most famous roles, Billie Reed on "Days of Our Lives" from 1993 to 2005 and Taylor McBride on "Melrose Place" from 1996-1998. Since that time she has made guest appearances on a variety of made for TV movies, sitcoms, and dramatic series.
She is well known for her plus-sized, pouty lips, but according to "People's" Monsters and Critics Lisa Rinna's large lips were the result of a silicon injection in 1986. The latest news is that Lisa has had surgery to reduce what she had come to consider over-sized lips because she felt it would give people the opportunity to get to know her for herself and not just as a set of lips.
About Harry Hamlin
Harry is the son of well connected and affluent parents. He has been married three times. His most recent marriage to Lisa Rinna has lasted 13 years. They have 2 kids. Back in 1987 Harry Hamlin was voted "People's Sexiest Man Alive, but since his active career in the 70s and 80s Hamlin's popularity has dwindled.
Hamlin has worked on a variety of projects through the years, but nothing that pushed him to the front of the celebrity scene, until his appearance on "Dancing with the Stars" on season 3, in 2006. With a little renewed interest Harry Hamlin and Lisa took their reality show idea to TVLand and landed a new show for TVLand's unique line up of original series.

Post a CommentOh, man - I forgot, I'm tired of reality TV too, but was actually going to try to watch this show. I love these two together - they're a stitch, and perfect for each other.
Well done review!
I can't believe she's doing a reality show!!!! Thank god she fixed those poor lips though. she looks better.
Good article, but I am so tired of reality TV. It's like hollywood has run out of idea's so they just show trash on the boob tube anymore.
Hamlin, the orginal "crash of the what-evers". Just kidding. Best wishes to the both of them.
The more important question is: Who cares? A has-been and a never-will-be! Both long past their shelf-life expiration dates!
Good coverage.
I love these two. Have known them for years. And Lisa's lips were too big.
