BravoTV.com’s Exclusive Producer Chats

There’s a lot of work that goes into creating Vanderpump Rules, and the producers of the series know exactly what it takes to turn real life drama into thrilling television. Read on for more.

Co-Executive Producer James Markham

The cast and producers have a “really unique relationship. Because I’m kind of your boss at times and telling you what to do and where to go. But we’re also friends and we have a good time.”

Supervising Producer Patrick McDonald

“Usually the thing that you don't want to talk about the most is the thing that people are going to want to hear about the most but also the thing that people are going to relate to the most.”

Story Producer Natalie Neurauter

One of the best ways to tell a story is by “looking for humor, even in moments where it doesn’t seem like there is humor to be had.”

Editor

Jesse Friedman

It’s important “to be able to know when not to edit and to just let something breathe because it’s real and somebody is expressing how they feel is a powerful thing.”
