How Andy Cohen Describes the Rhode Island Vibe

Bravo is definitely excited for this newest spinoff of the Housewives series, with Andy Cohen telling Deadline.com that the Ocean State "is the perfect spot for a Housewives."

He noted that the small state has a pretty insular community and that the women in the cast were great for TV, calling them "outrageously fun."

As a long-time Rhode Island resident myself, I'm not sure if I got "outrageously fun" vibes from this cast of characters. I do think this latest Housewives series is going to get some amazing ratings when it premieres in 2026.
