We are on the verge of getting back on track with one of Bravo’s most-loved reality series, VANDERPUMP RULES! As the show’s last season, the cast should resume work this coming fall to film for the 12th season with most of the faces viewers have grown to either love or love to despise. After the storm that unfolded in the last two seasons, the cast is coming back after the break and it seems that much is expected from the new season.
Who’s Returning in Vanderpump Rules Season 12?
Although Bravo has not yet publicly confirmed this rumor, it is expected that the entire main cast of the show will be back for the twelfth season. These are Ariana Madix, James Kennedy, Katie Maloney, Lala Kent, Scheana Shay, Tom Sandoval, Tom Schwartz and recent joiners Ally Lewber and Brock Davies.
The drama of Ariana and Tom Sandoval that was filmed in Season 11 and the subsequent break up dominates most of the series. After the “Scandoval”, the audience wants to know how they will function as a pair onscreen and if this season will present a different side to the damaged relationship.
Ariana for all the confusion that this year has brought her, has had a busy summer. She has been very busy these recent months hosting LOVE ISLAND USA and acting as a lead in the Broadway show, CHICAGO. Scheana’s return to VANDERPUMP RULES will definitely reveal more information about how she deals with life after the breakup and viewers are ready to watch this show.
The Next chapter for Tom Sandoval
At the same time, audiences should expect quite a lot from Tom Sandoval, who will return for Season 12. That’s why last season tried to reinvent him following the cheating scandal, but real fans did not bury the hatchet. The show stirred a lot of controversy on the attempt to humanize him, especially as a victim and this may be something that Season 12 has to address. Is this season going to provide the viewers an arc of redemption or will Tom continue to suffer the consequences of his actions?
A New Spinoff at SUR?
In addition to the upcoming season, Bravo has another project in the works: a possible Vanderpump Rules spin-off which is being shot at SUR, Lisa Vanderpumps West Hollywood restaurant. There are previews that this new show will be with the young SUR employees and it will return to the basic idea of the show where individuals who work as servers and bartenders have their love life and drama all seen by Lisa Vanderpump.
Although the spinoff is not confirmed yet, it could represent something fresh and close to what the show originally was. The new series is said to feature a new set of servers and characters which is believed to be a younger cast thus can be compared to early episodes of the original VANDERPUMP RULES cast when they were still in their servers and waitressing jobs.
The Valley: Another VANDERPUMP RULES Spinoff
In addition to an as-yet-unproven SUR spinoff another VANDERPUMP RULES spinoff by the name THE VALLEY has been in production. This series focuses on those who once were cast members and gives a new perspective on their lives after SUR. Characteristic for this show, recently two of the cast members got engaged while in Hawaii and that was an extra bonus for the audience who is waiting for the spinoff. As this new show has already picked up the cute, Bravo is developing an even bigger VANDERPUMP world that might be enough to feed the audience for years.
