Also on the roster of new series are Après Ski (w.t.), about a luxurious concierge company in Whistler, B.C.; Below Deck Mediterranean, the latest in the Below Deck franchise; Fit Club (w.t.), featuring personal trainers in New York City; Ladies of Dallas (w.t.), spotlighting that city's social scene; and Married to Medicine Houston, also an extension of an existing franchise. Further highlights include My Fab 40th, about over-the-top birthday celebrations; Mother Funders, featuring suburban moms who run a local PTO; Tour Group (w.t.), chronicling a group on an exotic vacation; and Recipe for Deception, a self-contained cooking competition.

New seasons have been given to Ladies of London, Don't Be Tardy…, Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles and Manzo'd with Children.

“Bravo continues to super-serve the most educated, affluent, engaged and loyal audience with our original content on all platforms,” said Frances Berwick, the president of lifestyle networks at NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment. “We are excited to launch these new unscripted and scripted series and believe the new slate will deliver the same high-quality and viewing benefits, but with a broader lens to drive even more ‘affluencers’ to view as well as engage socially.”

“Regardless of the platform, Bravo continues to be at the forefront of innovative media opportunities to integrate our partners’ marketing messages and engage this highly influential audience,” added Laura Molen, the executive VP of lifestyle advertising sales group at NBCUniversal. “There is truly no other place to reach this uniquely young, affluent and social audience at such scale.”
