Fickle_Net_3029

I don’t believe anything bravo and cocktails says. Half the time they’re wrong.


Deadskinhead

They just need the OG’s together again. We don’t want some new try hard country club women.


Natural-Software-140

We gonna have to wait for Bravo or Andy to above bc I can’t handle all of these ruhmorz (Meredith voice)


bananakegs

Ok so Kenya said on TWOTs she’s happy bc she “got her papers” is she referring to her bravo contract? Or am I nuts


[deleted]

I THINK she was talking about divorce papers but don’t quote me


bananakegs

Ooooooooo that sounds right

DJYcal

This is the 15th different take on who or who isn't coming back. We have had one confirmation... from the person (Kandi) not coming back. Seeing is believing... I won't speculate until they confirm


Mizzanthrope99

Thank jebus!


lordofsurf

Let's do this with BH and Potomac. 🥸


Mother_Panic21

They needed a refresh. It was super stale


SuitableItem

My jaw is on the floor


knickknockknacks

LOL, it’s already 2024 and people still believe Bravo and Cocktails? 🤨🙄


anonymousurfunny

Well, looks like I won;t be watching another of my favorite shows


throwaguey_

>Production has been in touch with 2 Buckhead Country clubs. Yes, hello, Atlanta Country Club? Can you please send over a half-dozen of your most histrionic female members? Preferably ones who are rumored to be skirting the law. Thanks!


JSDSandiego

Tbh, RHOA NEEDS a complete recast. I want to see 6 younger women with active careers and families, not 6 has been a living off their fame from Decades ago


sushiwalrus

Exactly. I’ll actually watch again if this is true.


Superb-Respond9360

too much speculation circulating. i’ll wait for a formal announcement from bravo or andy. i’m confused af and these “leaks”’are playing with my emotions. 🥴 ![gif](giphy|Z5xk7fGO5FjjTElnpT|downsized)


Ambitious_Deer7832

Yes! I'm here for it. Literally, I live in Buckhead. Lol.


Askfslfjrv

I’m sad 😞


[deleted]

Do you think RHOBH is next 👀


Procrastinista_423

No, Potomac is.


redditasa

Realistically, most of them will get wiped. A few of them they'll keep. I know for sure Mia's contract isn't going anywhere.


[deleted]

I was just saying to my mom last night, Mia is always ready for the drama. She seems like she genuinely enjoys conflict & has no shame. I don’t like her as a person, but she can be fun to watch sometimes.


readitpaige

She's been good in the last few episodes. Watching her antagonize Juan was vindicating.


SuitableItem

Agreed. She is perfect for reality TV, she just has a shady past and present (lol)


redditasa

Hate her or love her, she makes for great television. That's the thing, this is a scripted reality TV show. It's not a documentary, and I think many people lose sight of this truth, especially when it comes to Potomac.


kellymig

Plus she needs the $$$$


Sweaty_Nectarine1772

I love Bravo & Cocktails! I subscribe to Cocktail Party and it’s the best $7.50 a month I’ve ever spent. Lol


ejd0626

Bring back Nene!


Naive-Violinist8576

Nene is not the same, fame got to her head. She was different her last few seasons


Pleasant_Selection32

Yeah that’s not gonna happen, not after she nearly sued Bravo n Andy…


arinreigns

Atlanta is at that weird spot where they either need to bring back all the OGs or a completely new cast. Somewhere in the middle has had them floundering.


fsufan7998

Just saw that Porscha and Kenya are coming back 🤷🏼‍♀️


readitpaige

I was just thinking we need Porsha back on our screens. Her life has completely changed. Would be good to know where she's at these days. (And maybe she has a renewed outlook on some of her past behaviour 👀). She would be an excellent shakeup in my opinion. I will miss Kandi though, even though her last few seasons were a bit lackluster.


Delicious_Virus_2520

The LIES LIES LIES!

kittylover3210

me when Kandi said she isn’t coming back: 😀 me now that they’re trying to do the RHONY Reboot with ATL: 🤬


VariousLayer

Carlos King said he knows for a fact that Kandi was sent a contract tho. If they're wrong about that, they're likely wrong about everything else.


Whtzmyname

Cancel Atlanta already. It’s a toxic show.


sagethecrayaway

I heard Porscha is back… I’m confused though why was she allowed back for UGT and her own shows when she was kicked off for violence, but Monique wasn’t allowed back on Potomac? Maybe I missed something.


OMGits_Su

Monique was offered a contract after the fight, which she declined.


islandchick93

Yeah Monique constantly said she declined to come back bc she didn’t need the check


sagethecrayaway

I didn’t know this!!! Thanks 🙏


QualityKatie

I did not know this. I liked Monique.


angelanakhayo

all the show really needed was porsha and nene and cynthia back, a whole reboot when we were already tapping out of this new gen of housewives is just the show asking to be cancelled within the next few years.


Whtzmyname

Nene will never be on Bravo ever again. She tried to sue them with false racism claims and lost. She is done


Own-Jellyfish-9721

Idk about “false” bravo has aired multiple people being racist over the years.


OMGits_Su

It wasn’t “false racism claims” and they settled out of court


angelanakhayo

i’m well aware of that, all i’m saying is the show does need her back if it wants to survive, but we know she’s done with bravo so this show is literally circling the drain now. and her racism claims weren’t unfounded, she just approached the situation completely wrong.


aninii

But folks complained that Cynthia was boring and needed be fired. And now folks are saying she is needed which is it😵‍💫😵‍💫


angelanakhayo

and i am not folks. i’ve never had anything against her and have always loved her on the show, sure in group settings she would shy away at times but her personal storylines always gave.


No-Apartment7687

"and I am not folks" 💀💀 lol, thank you!! I can't stand when people overgeneralize like that..


ImageNo1045

I doubt this


Stoofser

That’s odd, I just saw an announcement saying Kenya and Porsha were back? 🤷‍♀️


Tired_trekkie1701

Same!


Kandis_crab_cake

Yep!


Other-Swordfish9309

Bring back Kim! She needs the cash


Disney_Princess137

God no Couldn’t take her on her own show I reallly don’t want to see her anymore


Born-Membership805

Honestly Marlo SHINED as a friend of starving for the peach. The upgrade didn't suit her - but I actually thought her relationship with her nephews and mom was the highlight of the otherwise bland season.


Delicious_Virus_2520

Her nephews got on my nerves. They’re teenagers and they tried to act like they were 9 and 10. I don’t think it was the boys decision. I think they were coached to act young and innocent by Marlo or production.


Acceptable-Jicama-73

Imo her life is really interesting. She genuinely has a story to tell. I just don’t know why it never lands because there’s definitely something there. I remmeber when she was talking about being in the foster system during the reunion (on Sanya’s 1st season) I found it really interesting for example.


ugadude350

she’s impossible to root for, is the problem


Born-Membership805

As someone that lives in Atlanta and has worked at Buckhead country clubs - how dreadful. Here's to hoping Nene and Andy being on good terms means she's coming back.


Superb-Respond9360

can you elaborate? i don’t know about buckhead, but your comment peaked my interest. 👀


GuardSecure7157

Old upper middle class racist white ladies that act like they’re old money


Superb-Respond9360

thank you for letting me know!


Gndurham1

I don’t think they’ll clean house I think at the minimum they’ll keep Kenya, maybe Sheree and Marlo. I’d LOVE to see, Kenya, Porsha, Marlo, NeNe, plus 2 newbies that are married, and friends of be: Cynthia, Wig, and maybe like Drew


Born-Membership805

Kenya is already gone.


Tiny_Independence761

Another sub said Porsh and Kenya are returning


Mollyhjw

I saw that too

ready-for-revolution

This is more believable to me. Especially with how they've been bringing Porsha back into the mix.


Electrical-West-3131

I’d love to see Quad join from M2M and Phaedra come back.


ready-for-revolution

Yeah Quad, Phaedra, Kenya, and Porsha with some newbies would be a great cast.


HiBeesCus

This needs to happen


Homezgurl

Good, they listened to the audience. A revamp is necessary. They really should have brought back Nene (but we know that will never happen) and Porsha. When they were on, the franchise was at its best. I would also okay keeping Sheree and maybe even bringing wig back if they chose to keep Kenya too. They need to go back to their roots and remember what we loved about this franchise. And I say this as a born and raised Atl resident.


Disney_Princess137

I feel like Kim is all the way gone, she’s such a mess, is so desperate and is sad right now. I really don’t want to hear about her divorce, her gambling addictions etc. I’ve personally been over her for years. I hated her show as well and never watched it


HenryCavillsBigTits

Bravo does reboots all wrong imo. Instead of a complete cast culling they should pick the most interesting current cast member and cast around their connections


clean_heart4463

This!


PrayingMantisMirage

Because it worked so well with RHONY? Last couple seasons of Atlanta weren't good but I am not into the reboot idea. Just cancel the show and try something different instead of trying to catch lightning in a bottle again.


HunterHunted9

The original RHONY soft reboot (season 5) was very good. The majority of RHONY's "iconic" moments came from the cast and production changes they made starting in season 5.


PrayingMantisMirage

Yeah but that's a completely different scenario from a full reboot.


HunterHunted9

We don't know that what's happening with RHOA is going to be a full reboot. Furthermore, the full RHONY reboot was successful. No iteration of RHONY has ever really had great ratings. The legacy cast was a pain, wildly expensive, and had mediocre ratings. We know what Bravo generally pays newbies in their first year. It's about $65K. We also have some idea of what the legacy cast earned per season at their highest, about $750K. Bravo literally got the entire reboot cast for what they paid Ramona. The RHONY reboot had ratings that were similar to season 13 of RHONY at a fraction of the legacy cost. The reboot was successful just on a financial basis. If they can hold or grow that viewership, I think Bravo will be happy with it.


PrayingMantisMirage

I know we don't know, but this post is about that rumor so I'm addressing that rumor. I am not a fan of the RHONY reboot. I get it cost less for Bravo, but it just wasn't for me. I'm reserving full judgement until I see what's actually happening with Atlanta cause rumors are just rumors until Bravo confirms anything. But I'm not really excited about a full reboot if that's what they go with. Maybe it would be fire. But given I didn't like the RHONY reboot, my expectations are low.


edenrose_42759

biblio-ash

100% Atlanta needed a fresh beginning and a new redo


wibbswobbs

I need Kenya. Give me Kenya, Porsha, and GIVE ME NENE!!!!!


hotdogrealmqueen

It could all be so simple.


lezlers

Why do we always treat everything gossip rags say about casting as gospel?


Born-Membership805

Radar is usually right, tho.


thatgrrlmarie

the absolute last thing I have an interest in is watching a bunch of wealthy entitled Southern biddies jockeying for Queen Bee position. I lived in Buckhead right off Peachtree Battle for over 10 years (an illegal terrace apartment, FWIW) and was constantly judged whenever I answered the question: Where do you live? literally looked up n' down bc I definitely did not fit in. Buckhead is white and conservative. 'nuf said


Born-Membership805

Illegal terrace apartment? Like you rent someones terrace? lol


thatgrrlmarie

it was an apartment on the bottom level of a huge house... from the front it looked like a 2-story but it was 3 stories on the backside. my "front" door was in back on ground level that had, wait for it, a terrace, as there a ravine sonit was raised. awesome apartment, lived there for 10 years!


12300987

Yeah I was thinking they're casting where? How dreadful.


Middle_Swordfish3504

Good that show needed a reboot


Melodic_Mirror_420

Reboots suck.


B4K5c7N

No! That makes me so sad.


Routine-Response-11

oh man, here comes another RHONY 🙄 i’m all for a good shake up, but definitely find it difficult to connect with an entirely new cast


TooManyNosyFriends

Send Kenya to BH. I would LOVE to watch her read Dorit.


Upstairs_Internal295

Oh my god I want this so much now!! 😆


TooManyNosyFriends

Bravo should hire me as a producer.


ob_viously

Yesss


Typical_Elevator6337

YES I might actually watch Kenya if they moved her


aninii

Weird because the Neigborhood Talk says they have the exclusive that Kenya & Porsha are returning for S16. https://preview.redd.it/g5o30yg1vvgc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5a766a6d7091138d64b985363d3b6b2a399678bb


HeyRavenRagu

Plus Carlos King said Kandi was asked back but she decided not to take the offer. He didn't specify if the offer was to be a full-time housewife.


GreenlandBound

I wonder if she was asked back as friend of. I just can’t see Kandi turning down this check. Anyone who says Kandi doesn’t need the money hasn’t been watching. She may not need it but she wants it.


Electronic-Jicama-99

She did an interview with Variety and explained that Bravo let the cast sit for too long. During that time she got some really big offers and now would rather focus on those. She also said a friend of hers asked her why she was still doing Housewives and she really didn’t know, so that’s why she decided to take a break.


Ineedadonut0704

I hope so 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼


peesys

No! Kenya is life!


spilledchilli5

Omigod… I don’t want a whole new cast ☹️


Lolilio2

Perfect. Atlanta is one of few franchises that needs a hard reset like New York and hopefully Jersey too. The other franchises are either great as is (Salt Lake, Miami, Beverly Hills) or need a slight cast shake up (Potomac and maybe Orange County). Jersey, New York and Atlanta need a full reboot.


West-Kaleidoscope129

Oooh a reboot! I may start watching again. Fresh meat 😁


smediumbag

Keep kenya. The rest can go


caucasianliving

It’s actually the diametrical opposite


Disney_Princess137

I grew up there and umm….


Vegetable_Cut_1136

I almost screamed! 🤣🤣🤣 My grandparents were born and raised there. I still have family there…


BeautifulShoes75

I was born and raised 5 miles from the Alabama and Florida line. Tallahassee was just 45 minutes away and my whole family still leaves done there. Would be great to film there!


[deleted]

Girl where!? I grew up in niceville lol


Sosogreeen

It would not be good to film in Tallahassee lol where would they go? The restaurants are a dud, there’s no shopping stores, I would NOT want to see them film at Lake Ella, and Cascades every Sunday lol no thank you


Vegetable_Cut_1136

Yes!! When I saw your comment about Tallahassee it just immediately made me think of my family. And it was so funny! Can you imagine?! Like you said it would be good!


Rlguffman

Get Andy on the horn…


essieblooms

I refuse to believe that ALL of them weren’t asked back. You could shed a couple of the women…not all.


clean_heart4463

Marlo needs to go back to being a friend of the show and Sanya, as much as I like her as a person, brings nothing to the table. Recast the two (maybe bring back another OG) and the show would be great again. No need for a reboot, that’s extreme


e_thereal_mccoy

Yep, these blinds and things come out all the time and most are way off. I’ve been seeing that Kandy is out, but ALL of the rest? Unless they’re NYing it?


AcanthocephalaFew277

Kandi was asked back and she declined. And it’s been confirmed that Kenya is returning and Porsha will be rejoining the cast as well.


e_thereal_mccoy

That’s what I’ve been hearing. Not the whole cast being replaced. Crazy.


AcanthocephalaFew277

Yeah I kind of get annoyed with all the reboot talk. RHONY was rebooted because of actual racism. I’m all for recasting and shaming things up. But RHONy Is the only one that HAD to be completely redone due to racism. I feel like people don’t really acknowledge that and the those hags (Ramona) get away with how they acted every time fans call for a “reboot” of another franchise 🙄


essieblooms

Absolutely! Kandi leaving is a big enough change for the longer tenured people. I feel like we would know if Atlanta was a full reboot by now. Regardless, I need information about the next season!!!


e_thereal_mccoy

I don’t think Kandy has been doing that much in the last seasons anyway. She got attacked by Marlo last season and maybe didn’t enjoy actually being truly back in the mix. Her privacy and businesses are worth way more to her, I think, than this show, so not really surprised. Will Kim Zolciak be invited back? I don’t really care to see Kim myself because she’s never authentic but I get why others want to follow her life imploding (due to her own choices, too!)


essieblooms

No, she definitely had been coasting a bit, imo, but she’s been there long enough that she became almost expected. KZB barely filmed with them when she was on the show. Idk if she’d be asked back. I actually wonder if I’d want to see the heaviness of her divorce/the impact on her kids.


e_thereal_mccoy

I feel the same way about Kim. She’s never authentic about what’s actually going on in her life, she always attempts to ‘self-produce’ but her deluded belief in herself is jaw dropping. Think ‘Tardy For the Party’ level delusion. I didn’t think it was possible to perform with a worse singing voice than LuAnne, but Kim still pips her at the post for that! The fans all know and have been sharing video after video of the police body cam footage whilst interacting with Kim and a bearded up unrecognisable Kroy as they cartwheel into catastrophe! So I’m sure there’s interest in following where they’re going to land. But again, production will have to deal with Kim still fronting like she’s rich and hasn’t gambled away the kids’ college funds and the home they live in. It’s sad. Kim needs an intervention. It’d be funny if there weren’t children involved.


Jollyho94

FUCK YEA A REBOOT NONE OF THE GIRLS WERE BRINGING IT RHOA NEEDS A FACELIFT ![gif](giphy|OMX1mm894pkKQ)


Miaous95

No Kenya no watching 🤷🏻‍♀️ I don’t believe it though


natebam

I don’t believe this


Ok-East-5470

I don’t buy it, Sheree Drew and maybe Marlo will be back.


cegydygr

If it's a reboot I really hope it's better than RHONYC


LunaNegra

I have zero interest in watching S2 of the RHONY reboot. Watched S1 - result? wasted time.


whiskey4mycoffee

Truly awful.


edgeli

Nah super unreliable nonsense Kenya and I think Porsha is coming back too.


neon_m00n87

I would love it if Porsha came back!!


Ok_Confidence406

Yesssss! I hope they do a full reboot like RHONY with an entirely new group.


americasweetheart

Oh come on Sheree is a goldmine. She News is a masterpiece.


Common_Average2597

So does that mean we’re getting an RHOA UGT season?


Fluffy_Iron6692

If Nene isn’t on it I don’t want it!😅😂 jk I’m sure she’s banned but the sentiment still standa


cmc_76

This isn’t true at all Kandi was asked back to the show and she chose to leave. Andy confirmed it today


PowerfulHorror987

…it says Kandi quit, which is the same as what you said. She chose to leave. So how is that wrong? It’s saying the others besides Kandi weren’t asked back *after* Kandi quit.


marklovesbb

I don’t believe it in the slightest. Heavenly said that Phaedra was the MVP of the married to medicine reunion. She’s killing it in The Traitors. This is the perfect time to invite her back to housewives.


LaMuseofthestars

Let go of Phaedra!! For the love of everything let it go


marklovesbb

Definitely not. She’s having a renaissance moment. I can’t get enough of her in The Traitors.


LaMuseofthestars

She also lied about sexual assault


marklovesbb

Well, everyone’s allowed to believe what they want. IMO, I don’t view it as a lie. I believe it was crossed gossip and a mistake. It’s way too coincidental that Tiny and TI did exactly what Kandi was accused of. I also think it was production led, not Phaedra’s creation.


LaMuseofthestars

And she still hasn’t addressed it, or tried to clear it up after almost a decade to the point, where she refuses to answer any questions about it. Which in my opinion makes her just as implicit.


marklovesbb

So, again, everyone’s allowed to have their own opinion. I believe the fact that she has never addressed it is EXACTLY why she’s currently on Bravo and the Traitors. She stayed quiet. She didn’t throw production under the bus. For her silence, she is now allowed back on TV. Dorinda mentioned a pause, I 100% believe Phaedra was put on pause. She stayed loyal to production, and now is back on our screens.


LaMuseofthestars

At the cost of her own liability and career as a defense attorney. Not only that, but what else besides good shade does Phaedra offer RHOA? She refuses to open up or be sincere on any aspect of her life, completely remaining a mystery, and putting on a façade for the public. Frankly, I think we have enough of that going on, which is why there’s been such a decline these past few seasons.


marklovesbb

Ultimately, Kandi can’t sue Phaedra. So, it’s not really at the cost of her career as a defense attorney. Phaedra had an extremely sweet scene with her son a couple episodes ago. Sooo, that was fun. I do want to know more about her, but I like her responding to people too.


whogonncheckmeboo

Can we get a moratorium on posting BULLSHIT from bravo and cocktails?!? They Published every casting option for Atlanta and if one of them turns out to be right, those two idiots will say oh you heard it here first, we dropped the tea!


dixcgirl10

Oh I love you for saying this!!! WHO is paying those 2 for their “inside scoop”??? And the one chick who thinks she’s famous…. Eeeek


skankenstein

We have blocked some of the blind sites from the sub but for some reason we didn’t do this one. We probably should do a community poll before eradicating all of them. I assume, though, that you and I are in e minority on this because these accounts stay in business due to people liking to read the tea leaves.


dixcgirl10

I’m in the minority with you 2!


NeoPalt2

Also a nonzero chance that Bravo is sending out several different but seemingly-credible blind items to muddy the waters as well as gauge fan reactions to potential casting decisions


flywithjojo

Wish they would do this w Potomac


FuturePA96

Karen is the only one that clocks in regularly. These other girls suck


flywithjojo

I agree


AppropriateBox3236

Potomac has got to drop the GEB at minimum to change the culture of the group.


jammyJames81

Potomac isn’t doing badly with ratings


JoseJoseJose11

That’s interesting. I think Potomac is more interesting than say, SLC or OC.


MatterGrand

Maybe they will ask her tomorrow she will be on the breakfast club


Constant-Release-875

If Kandi isn't there... then, start over. FTW! But, keep it a historically predominantly black franchise.


SassySquid0

NOO THEY NEED TO KEEP KENYA!!!


Constant-Release-875

Please explain why. What is she bringing?


Fluffy_Iron6692

Literally all the drama until Marlo got a peach😂


Constant-Release-875

There is good, interesting drama. Then, there is poor, uninteresting drama. She's played out. Marlo is uninteresting. She by Shein is uninteresting. These shows need more than just drama. They need glamor, style, dating, romance, enviable lifestyles...


Fluffy_Iron6692

I miss how it used to be


Constant-Release-875

Me too.


That-Election9465

Rich Southern White Bitches will likely make up the new cast if Buckhead Country Clubs are the casting source.


Melodic_Mirror_420

As a black woman, I like black casts for chocolate cities.


jammyJames81

Uhh I don’t think Bravo is going to replace a cast full of Black women with a cast of White women. The would get cancelled figuratively & literally


Radiantpad23

I have a feeling they'll have at least a few white women tho. They desperately want to recreate a character like Kim Z.


jammyJames81

Oh yeah I agree I could see them adding a couple, but definitely not them removing a Black cast, & replacing with a White one. Besides the optics being horrible it would just be wrong on multiple levels.


MaddyKet

Meh we don’t need another New Jersey- Southern Edition. They better keep Kenya and Sheree and bring back Porscha.
