‘Vanderpump Guidelines’ Reboot Scores File Low Scores: Headed For Cancelation Already?

Studying Time: 3 minutes

The twelfth season of Vanderpump Guidelines premiered on Bravo earlier this month.

And should you weren’t conscious the present nonetheless existed — nicely, you’re not alone.

Sure, both Bravo’s advertising division actually dropped the ball, or curiosity within the all-new Vanderpump forged is far, a lot decrease than anticipated.

Regardless of the case, the rebooted sequence premiered to shockingly low rankings.

And after simply three episodes, there’s already speak that the present is not going to be renewed for Season 13.

‘Vanderpump’ premiere acquired lowest rankings in franchise historical past

In response to a brand new report from Star journal, the present’s December 2 season premiere drew in simply 290,000 viewers, making it the least-watched episode in Vanderpump historical past.

The state of affairs bought even worse the next week, when Vanderpump Season 12 Episode 2 dropped to fewer than 1 / 4 million viewers.

The numbers for the third episode, which aired on Tuesday night time, aren’t in but — however barring a Christmas miracle, they’re most likely not gonna be something to lift your glass about.

At this level, the present is such an unmitigated catastrophe that it won’t be permitted to complete out the season, regardless that the entire thing has already been filmed.

“The numbers for premiere week rankings are nonetheless coming in,” an insider instructed Star, including, “And it’s nonetheless early, however based mostly on early numbers, the shortage of viewers response, engagement, and total curiosity, it’s seemingly at this level that the reboot is not going to come again.”

A second supply supplied an unconvincing rebuttal, noting that government producer (and sole returning forged member) Lisa Vanderpump has been “very beneficiant along with her time selling this present.”

(Frankly, that feels like a Bravo insider’s method of paying a praise to Lisa as a method of side-stepping the rankings difficulty.)

A 3rd supply says that the present has even greater issues than its rankings, as Bravo execs imagine that it’s merely less than the community’s standard requirements of high quality.

“Bravo execs are scuffling with the reboot. Initially, they don’t discover the present to be pretty much as good, that’s the largest difficulty,” that informant tells the US Solar.

For her half, Lisa has already been fast to dismiss the issues in regards to the present’s cancellation.

“Screw the naysayers!” Lisa instructed Web page Six this week at her Vanderpump Canine Basis Gala in Beverly Hills.

“I’m very excited in regards to the new forged. Hopefully this time subsequent yr they’ll be a ache in my ass, as a result of that’s when you already know the present’s successful!”

Evidently, unlikely that the present will nonetheless exist this time subsequent yr. However its namesake restaurateur seems unconcerned.

After all, Lisa is independently rich and has already starred in and/or produced a number of profitable actuality reveals (to say nothing of the various eating places she’s opened).

The younger forged of the rebooted Vanderpump Guidelines won’t be so fast to shrug this case off.
