Considering that RHoNJ dropped 20% this Sunday from its previous showing, RHoNY did surprisingly well all things considered and only dropped 5.2% against its fourth episode . The fifth episode of the 5th season of RHoNY did score a new season low at 1,386,000 but more worryingly dropped to just 0.40 in the 18-49 demo. In our weekly projections we’d suggested a range of 1.2-1.4m and so it came in at just below our upper estimate. Read more

Season 5 of this iteration of the Real Housewives’ franchise, witnessed the largest ever cast change of any franchise with two 4 year veterans; Alex McCord & Jill Zarin, three year alum Kelly Bensimon and season 4 newbie, Cindy Barshop all getting the axe, as the producers of Real Housewives of New York City retooled the cast in the hope of emulating the wealth of the Beverly Hill’s franchise. Original NY Wives Ramona Singer and LuAnn Delesseps were retained as was Sonja Morgan, who’d joined in Season 3. The 3 new wives were Aviva Drescher, Carole Radziwell and Heather Thomson.

In the end the cast change precipitated a major ratings decline as Season 5 became the 2nd lowest rated of the five dropping -26.09% in the 18-49 demo versus Season 4 and in terms of total audience was down -14.59% versus 2009′s Season 2 Read more

In season 4, Bethenny left for her own show and Cindy Barshop was added to the rest Real Housewives of New York City cast who returned from the 4th season; Alex McCord, Jill Zarin, Kelly Bensimon, LuAnn Delesseps, Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan.

After ratings dropped precipitously for the second installment of the Reunion, Bravo decided to overhaul the cast reacting to what they perceived as a too ‘dark’ season. Despite this perception, ratings for Season 4 actually grew from Season 3 and that despite the loss of Frankel. Overall this 4th season closed out growing 1% over its prior one, and given the Morocco trip never reached the heights of the famous trip to St John, the fact that the 4th season’s ratings held up show’s the enduring attraction of the cast.
