The series follows these Texan ladies through their crazy everyday lives — and with no shortage of drama. Although the series had a strong five-season run, it was ultimately cancelled before the sixth. Once Tiffany Moon joined the cast, it appeared some of the other women were racist towards her, which was the leading factor in its cancellation, with no plans to bring it back (and for good reason).

Although technically a spin-off on The Real Housewives series, it’s still considered part of the branch. This series premiered in late 2021 and gathered multiple housewives from multiple different branches and had them go on a vacation together. What could possibly go wrong? Well, just about everything. The show was on its fifth season, but now there’s speculation if that season will ever see the light of day since one of the women, Caroline Manzo, is suing Bravo and spoke out and accused one of her castmates of sexual assault. Only time will tell what happens.
