So Many ‘Real Housewives' Returning to Bravo

So Many ‘Real Housewives’ Returning to Bravo

NBCUniversal’s cable networks have set their plans for the 2024-25 season, and they involve a whole lot of Real Housewives.

Bravo has picked up new seasons of seven series in its multi-headed reality hydra, along with renewals for a host of other veteran shows. It’s also adding a new unscripted following a group of young professionals in New York and developing another centered on safari guides in South Africa. E! will feature a docuseries with Snoop Dogg and his daughter, Cori Broadus, and Oxygen True Crime has ordered seven shows and renewed nine others. The lone scripted addition in the NBCU cable portfolio comes from Syfy.

But back to the Real Housewives: New seasons of the franchise’s shows set in Atlanta, Beverly Hills, Miami, New York City, Orange County, Potomac and Salt Lake City will premiere in the 2024-25 season (dates have yet to be announced). Bravo has also renewed Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen – which will mark its 15th anniversary later this year – along with Married to Medicine, Top Chef, Southern Charm, Southern Hospitality and Below Deck.

Bravo’s sole new series is called Making It in Manhattan, about a group of friends – some from well-known families, others looking to make their own names – in New York. It’s also developing a show with the working title On Safari, a Below Deck-ish concept following the guides who work for a luxury tour company in South Africa. Chrissy Teigen is among the executive producers of the latter project.

E!’s currently untitled series about the Broadus family is a three-part documentary following Cori Broadus and her fiancé, Wayne Deuce, as they approach their wedding. Cori’s dad, Snoop Dogg, is an executive producer. E! will also air the second season of House of Villains in 2024-25.

USA has set a summer premiere for The Anonymous, a competition series from The Traitors producer Studio Lambert that combines face-to-face game play and an online component where players remain – wait for it – anonymous. The network has also set a Sept. 13 date for its premiere of WWE Smackdown, which is moving from Fox.

At Oxygen True Crime, the new offerings include a Dateline-branded show subtitled The Smoking Gun, about investigations where a single piece of evidence cracks open the case; Philly Homicide, following detectives in Philadelphia; and Lady of the Dunes, about one of the most famous unsolved murders in U.S. history. Long-running titles including Snapped and Cold Justice will also have new seasons in 2024-25.

Syfy’s new scripted series is called Revival and is set in rural Wisconsin, where a town’s recently deceased return to life just as they were before dying. A local police officer is thrown into a murder mystery where everyone, alive and undead, could be a suspect. Also at Syfy, season two of The Ark is on tap for summer, and the third season of Surreal Estate is set for 2025.
