: 09/30/2009 - 11:36am; Viewer; I am looking forward to a new season of NJ Housewives...my fave! Love Theresa, Jacklyn and Caroline.. Could definitely do with out Danielle though. I also liked the NYC wives too. Except for Alex and her husband... ugh! I think the Atlanta wives need to get over themselves...give me a break! All they do is fight and talk behind each others backs! BORING!!! The OC wives all seem to be very bitchy and were terrible to Gretchen last season with all she had going on with her fiance's health etc. Especially Tamra! What a bitch... then we have space cadet Lynn ...who needs to get a clue! Please do not bring her back... she adds NOTHING to the show.

they need to do a REAL HOUSEWIVES OF SAN FRANCISCO!!!!!!!!! that would be great to watch. The OC Housewives shows the southern california lifestyle. they need to show the NORTHERN CALIFORNIA LIFESTYLE. San Francisco Bay Area is amazing!

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF SAN FRANCISCO!!!!!!!!!

I only liked Jill and the other girls need to go, you should skip them and I agree with the other comments how about Maimi but than again I would love to see the country housewives of either NC or TX. It would be nice to see how the southern bells live. Please keep them coming without NY.

I LIVE IN ATLANTA AND AM SO EMBARRASED!!! ALL OF US DO NOT ACT LIKE THIS...... I PROMISE

NOTE: I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT LISA....

: 09/20/2009 - 1:32am; Suki; This season of RHWO-OC looks like it's going to be awesome.
I'm so over Aatlanta, I'm counting the days for it to be done.
But Miami sounds like it would be good to watch, after seeing Miami Social, I'd love to see how the other half lives in Miami. Also, I agree with maybe seeing how latin women would weather, being on a season of Real Housewives.
To date though, I loved the girls in NY, and NJ even though they were polar opposites..lol

: 09/18/2009 - 1:20pm; Viewer; I TOTALLY agree latinagirl i love that show! didnt care to much for Lina though, can we say PSYCHO! :)

: 09/18/2009 - 12:25pm; Viewer; Can't wait for the new season w/the OC housewives! But would be great if they mixed it up and added another city! With the energy Chicago has spurred from Obama to the Olympics - it would be amazing!

: 09/18/2009 - 11:18am; Viewer; Love the Housewives of OC and NY, for the most part they are really classy ladies. Enjoyed the Housewives of NJ, although it was short-lived. While I know that it's all entertainment, sometimes I don't find the ladies of Atlanta entertaining, more like embarrassing.

: 09/18/2009 - 9:40am; Viewer; How can you even think about getting rid of OC. If any, do away with New York or the Jersey girls. OC is where it all started!!! I love, love, love Vickie and Tamra. They are hilarious!

: 09/18/2009 - 7:25am; Lila; Love all the Housewives! Let's see some Hot Latina Housewives, we are not all just cleaning maids, you know? My friends and I are Hot, well off Housewives!

: 09/17/2009 - 11:49pm; Lila; I Love all the Housewives! Let's get some Hot Latin Housewives, we are not just cleaning maids, u know! My friends and I, we are hot, well off, Latin Housewives!

: 09/17/2009 - 10:56pm; Viewer; Ooo Real Housewives of Miami would definitely be interesting!!

: 09/17/2009 - 8:07pm; Dana; BRAVO... How about housewives of Detroit...

: 09/17/2009 - 7:13pm; Viewer; BRING BACK THE HOUSEWIVES OF NEW YORK.....IT WAS SO WONDERFUL...I LOVED JILL ZAREN !!!!!! SHE IS THE LEADER...PLS BRING IT BACK...THANK YOU !!!

: 09/17/2009 - 6:52pm; Nykeya; I love the Jersey housewives cause that's where I'm from originally, and the ATL is funny as hell. But i would love to see some real housewives that don't revolve around money. Like real deal housewives of southeast San Diego. Now if you want some real drama that's where you will find it. Being rich doesn't make a real housewife

: 09/17/2009 - 2:54pm; Viewer; BRAVO...how about a Real Housewives of Nashville!

: 09/17/2009 - 1:35pm; Karen; So, happy the oc is coming back my favorites Vicki and Gina they are the original girls from the start of the show. I hope that Bravo could come to North Carolina, that would be a nice change for the carolina housewives. come on Bravo we welcome you!

: 09/17/2009 - 1:09pm; Jersey Girl 6657; Love the ladies from the OC but my Jersey Girls are the best! Glad to have some sanity back though. OC ladies have a ton of class!

: 09/17/2009 - 10:25am; robin; I LOVE the OC housewives. keep them coming! The other housewives are good but OC is the BEST

: 09/17/2009 - 2:02am; kharizma; I am exicted to see the ones who started it all!!! Ive been watching since it premiered...and yeah i am getting tired of them also now...lets have some different cities and diversity..i would like to see more women of color on these shows just not in atlanta..there are women of color all over the us...i do love Vicki she has always been my favorite...and the rest of them well..eh....whatever...cant wait for it to start though..peace.

: 09/17/2009 - 1:14am; Viewer; The NYC housewives are the best! You should definitely do a Las Vegas version of the show- it would be great!

: 09/16/2009 - 8:18pm; alstonb55; I would love to see a Real Housewives of Charlotte, NC. Get some diversity!

: 09/16/2009 - 7:52pm; Jackie; I would like to see The Real Housewives of Washington DC, starring Michele Obama!

: 09/16/2009 - 6:50pm; Johnp503; OMG I CANT WAIT IM SOOOOOOO EXCITED>!!!!

: 09/16/2009 - 4:45pm; Viewer; I'm from OC and I don't care the housewives from OC. I will take a brake.

A longtime fan

DON'T CANCEL THE OC HOUSWIVES!! After so many seasons I look forward to "catching up" with the girls! They are a lot of fun and I look forward to each new season.

I agree with everyone else though about adding MORE cities to the Housewives shows. How about Dallas? Miami? Chicago? Aspen? Las Vegas? So many options and so many fans of the Real Housewives genre!!

Keep 'em coming!

: 09/16/2009 - 2:34pm; alabamavalerie; I'd like to see the Real Housewives of: The Windy City or Sin City!!

: 09/16/2009 - 1:22pm; Viewer; We need a break from these OC housewives. I am over them. ATL or Jersey is all I watch. I can't take another season of Vicki. It's painful to watch her family life explode all around her. She is truly blind to everything she has already. It's pretty sad.

: 09/16/2009 - 1:16pm; MiamiViewer; The ATL cast are the most entertaining. I agree to that a Miami cast would be a good change; fresh faces, beauty, sex appeal. Hey, if you're looking for your first Miami cast member, I'm your Housewife!

: 09/16/2009 - 12:24pm; jbf926; I can't wait for the new season...drama,drama,drama.

: 09/16/2009 - 11:26am; wannabe RH; NEW CITY WOULD BE WELCOMED...TRY MIAMI

I love the Real housewives of O.C but yeah, I agree with a few viewers; Let see another Series in a different state I'd love the idea of the REAL HOUSEWIVES OF CHICAGO

MY MOM IS TOTALY IN AS A HOUSEWIFE
lets get rid of jersey

: 09/16/2009 - 9:59am; Viewer; I'd like to see the Real Housewives of Miami,or Chicago or Washington-DC!! It would be do keep refreshing it. I'm tired of the ATL already...

: 09/16/2009 - 9:36am; Viewer; I like the O.C housewive, because they are the #1 housewives. The first one that started them all, I watch ATL housewives now they are funny.
But the O.c housewives are good to, I do miss Lori but she has to get her self together with her son and her Newlywed husband. Vivki needs to slow down, she is doing to much and then neglecting her husband the way she did, I will not be surprised if he is dating someone else. I dont realy miss Jo I think that's her name the one that wants to be a singer. I can't wait until they come back though it was just a few months ago since they were on but I have been counting down the time, It will be on DVR.

: 09/16/2009 - 5:41am; Viewer; I'd like to see a lot more diversity with this California series...and I agree...they are the most boring.

: 09/16/2009 - 1:17am; Viewer; I can't wait. I love the OC housewives. I love watching all the housewives, New York, New Jersey, Atlanta.....bring on more. There should never be a week without the housewives. Great show.....

: 09/16/2009 - 1:06am; Diane; I Love love love the girls it has been a LONG summer w/out my home O.C. girls after all they started it all and are still the best!What about Dallas Tx as the next housewives show,N.J. are way dated and too faux Sopranos,they give Italians a bad image(I AM ONE).

: 09/15/2009 - 10:14pm; latinagirl; Miami Social is the classiest show Bravo has to date! Bring them back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved most of the players, Maria you rock! Hardy you are sexy!

: 09/15/2009 - 8:15pm; Viewer; Why is this coming back on so soon. Gosh they were a boring. Where is Lori? I think we need to see another city, OC is too much right now.
