\n\tAhead of the Bravo<\/a> Fan Fest event taking place in Charleston, South Carolina this weekend, the network renewed three shows (\u201cIn the City<\/a>,\u201d \u201cNext Gen NYC<\/a>\u201d and \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201d) and ordered two new ones, \u201cNext Gen Atlanta\u201d and \u201cCharmed by a Southern Monster.\u201d That last title is Bravo\u2019s first scripted microdrama, and will be led by \u201cSouthern Charm\u201d star Craig Conover. (Full loglines below.)<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIn the City\u201d \u2014 a spinoff of \u201cSummer House,\u201d which became a cultural sensation in its 10th season<\/a> \u2014 was renewed for a second season, and has already begun filming in New York City. Though no cast was announced for any of Bravo\u2019s new or returning unscripted shows, it\u2019s safe to say that \u201cSummer House\u201d stars Kyle Cooke and Lindsay Hubbard will be back (especially since they\u2019re panelists at Bravo Fan Fest). Kyle\u2019s ex Amanda Batula, however, hasn\u2019t been filming, and isn\u2019t expected to return as a full-time cast member \u2014\u00a0though she could eventually film scenes with Kyle. West Wilson, who\u2019s still dating Amanda, appeared on Season 1 of \u201cIn the City\u201d before they went public about their relationship, and also hasn\u2019t filmed at all. (He was recently cast in the Netflix competition series \u201cMillion Dollar Secret.\u201d)<\/p>\n

\n\tThe fourth season of the Charleston-set \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201d finished airing in June, and its fans within the Bravosphere worried that none of the show\u2019s castmates were posting selfies together over the summer, which is when it\u2019s traditionally been in production. Those observers need not have fretted, as it turns out, since the show has now been officially renewed. Though its cast is still in flux, Leva Bonaparte, who was on \u201cSouthern Charm\u201d and whose Charleston restaurant Republic has been the show\u2019s base of operations, said in an Instagram reply<\/a> that she\u2019s \u201cmoving on to a new chapter in my life\u201d and she \u201cappreciated my time there but it\u2019s no longer serving me.\u201d (She and her husband Lamar Bonaparte are still listed as executive producers, though.) As for the rest of the cast, the Bravo Fan Fest lineup might offer guidance once more: Joe Bradley, Maddi Reese, Michols Pe\u00f1a, Mia Alario, Bradley Carter and TJ Dinch are among the panelists.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cNext Gen NYC,\u201d which became a word-of-mouth hit over the summer during its delightful second season, has also been renewed, and has started production. Again, no cast was announced, but Gia Giudice and Ava Dash are appearing at Fan Fest, and most of the cast is expected to return. Clearly, Bravo\u2019s \u201cNext Gen\u201d experiment has been deemed a success, since the network has ordered \u201cNext Gen Atlanta,\u201d which is expected to follow the pattern of mixing the children of Bravolebrities with the offspring of well-known Atlantans.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/p>\n

\n\tLast but not least is a series greenlight for the microdrama \u201cCharmed by a Southern Monster,\u201d which has key art and a logline that need seen and read to be believed. Launching on Nov. 9 on the Peacock app, the series will star Conover \u2014 a lawyer and a storyteller, as well as an OG cast member of \u201cSouthern Charm\u201d \u2014 as Hunter Caldwell, playing opposite Nicole Mattox, an actor well-known in the world of microdramas. <\/p>\n
