Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live—a talk show hosted by network exec Andy Cohen, with a guest roster (mostly) made up of Bravo reality stars, on which everyone (mostly) discusses Bravo shows—has proved a huge success for the network, pulling in an average of 1.5 million viewers last season. Now AMC, home of the highbrow yet equally discussable drama, is considering launching its own postgame talk show, and has even hired the WWHL team to produce it.

Sources told New York magazine’s Vulture blog that AMC commissioned WWHL executive producer Michael Davies and his Embassy Row Productions to shoot a pilot for an AMC-themed series several weeks ago.
