Bravo has just announced that four new shows are coming to the schedule this year. “Wife Swap: The Real Housewives Edition,” “The Valley: Persian Style,” “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island,” and a reboot of “Ladies of London” will all be making their debut in the coming months. But the network isn’t done making big announcements just yet.
The Current Bravo Lineup Is Jam-Packed
Heading into the summer, the Bravo primetime schedule is loaded with some of the network’s biggest hits. Sunday night features “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” and “Bravo’s Love Hotel,” and Monday night is for “Below Deck Down Under.”
On Tuesday, the network is airing the “Vanderpump Rules” spinoff, “The Valley. Wednesday night is all about “Summer House,” and Thursday night is for “Top Chef.” Of course, the Bravo primetime lineup is closed out every night by “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.”
There are also a number of shows returning that don’t have a premiere date or a cast announcement just yet. They include: “Below Deck Mediterranean” season 10, “Below Deck Down Under” season 4, “Southern Charm” season 11, “Southern Hospitality” season 4, “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” seasons 15, “The Real Housewives of Orange County” season 19, “The Real Housewives of Potomac” season 10, “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” season 6, “Married to Medicine” season 12, “Vanderpump Rules” season 12, and “The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys” season 2.
More Big Announcements Are Coming
According to a tip submitted to “Bravo and Cocktails,” Bravo is not done making big announcements. In addition to four new shows, the network has more to announce at the upfronts on May 12.
“They didn’t want to announce so much at once that things would get buried so expect more exciting news!” the source claimed.
“Also, just because RHONY and RHONJ weren’t on the list of renewed, doesn’t mean they were cancelled. Summer House among other shows weren’t there either. It just means they will not be on the planned schedule for the upcoming tv year.”
The tip also claimed that Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Dolores Catania, and Margaret Josephs are still under contract with NBC Universal and will be attending BravoCon.
“Bravo pays them a set amount during this holding period, to keep them engaged since they aren’t allowed to be on other networks,” the source explained.
Summer Premieres on Bravo
Bravo has also announced its slate of summer premieres. “Below Deck” season 12 premieres on Monday, June 2nd, and the first season of “Next Gen NYC” premieres on Tuesday, June 3rd.
Season 7 of “The Real Housewives of Miami” premieres on Wednesday, June 11, and the first “Kings Court” season arrives on Sunday, July 13. Finally, the “Las Culturistas Culture Awards” premieres on Tuesday, August 5th.
After the episodes of these shows premiere on Bravo, they will be available to stream on Peacock the next day.
