Bravolebrity LeeAnne Locken thinks Bravo should give RHOD a second chance and reboot the franchise as they did with the Miami Housewives.
Real Housewives of Dallas alum LeeAnne Locken is opening up about why she believes the franchise failed and, more importantly, why Bravo should reboot the Dallas Housewives franchise.
“I think Dallas deserves having a presence in the universe because there’s no other show like it. They had a rodeo for a TV show, and they rode the bull out, so you got to keep the bull in the arena if you want to keep the show going,” she explained to The Messenger of RHOD.
“I think the biggest problem with Dallas was that we weren’t all really organic friends. I always just showed up and did the job. If Andy wants to bring it back, I mean, he’s got my number. He can certainly reach out to me. I’m happy to help him again put the show back together. I’m too quick tongue to give up on reality” LeeAnne said.
Beyond the possibility of returning to Bravo with a reboot of RHOD, LeeAnne admits that she would like to star in a season of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip.
“It would be a chance to actually be around Housewives that can keep up with me, and that would challenge me to go faster and further and harder and quicker… not to mention getting to know more girls,” LeeAnne said of the RHUGT. “It’d be great to sit around and hang out, get drunk and crazy – see how much hair we could let down.”
LeeAnne starred on RHOD from seasons 1 through 4 before exiting the show ahead of season 5. After season 5, Bravo put RHOD on an indefinite “pause,” much like they previously did with the Real Housewives of Miami.
However, Bravo rebooted RHOM in 2021 on their streaming app, Peacock. Seasons 4 and 5 of RHOM aired on Peacock with so much success that Bravo decided to bring the franchise back home to Bravo for season 6, which will air later this year.
