Things Are About to Get Very Interesting in The O.C.

Bravo shook thinks up radically with the cast of The Real Housewives of New York City this season, and a new report suggests the network is about to do the same thing with its original Real Housewives franchise.

The Real Housewives of Orange County stars Vicki Gunvalson and Alexis Bellino are quite possibly on the chopping block, the New York Post's Page Six column reports.

And among the potential new Housewives: Vicki's daughter, Brianna, who's now a housewife (and soon-to-be mama) after eloping with her boyfriend.

Page Six reports that sources said Bravo executives want to "refresh" the O.C. cast, just like they did the NYC cast. The results of that makeover are still up in the air … fans haven't exactly embraced the new NYC cast members.

RHoOC producers reportedly sent out a casting email last week, looking for "fabulous affluent women and their families who live in amazing homes to potentially be on (RHoOC)."

Page Six's sources say Bravo wants to cut at least one of its current cast members, with Gunvalson and Bellino as the top two candidates to get the boot. Gunvalson, who, as the only original cast member of the show still on the series is the RH franchise's senior star (or the "OG of the O.C.," as Andy Cohen calls her) has always been a polarizing figure.

Some people love her, some love to hate her, and her split from husband Donn and subsequent relationship with drippy boyfriend (and accused deadbeat dad) Brooks Ayers has not increased her popularity among those not on Team Vicki.

Bellino, meanwhile, has even fewer fans, with her castmates calling out her poor treatment of crew members during the show's recent post-season reunion, and producers reportedly unhappy that she left during filming of a cast trip to Costa Rica during the most recent season.

Bravo has no comment on the story, Page Six reports, but sources also told the newspaper that 24-year-old Brianna is high on the list of potential new cast members. She's already known to viewers, and she's also been a fan favorite who gained even more viewer support during a recent cancer scare on the show.

Take Our Poll

Would you be sorry to see "The OG of the O.C.," Vicki Gunvalson, kicked off the show?

  1. Yeah, she's needs to go away and focus on her messed up personal life.
  2. No! That will be one boring show without Vicki!

I would get rid of Tamara......she is filthy & vulgar on the show and so two-faced !! Vicki is a main staple of the show and Alexis is naive, but kind. Most of the ladies are jealous of her. All of the shows would be much better if there wasn't so much filthy talk and just showed their lives! A lot of people wish you had more "lady like" women on the show. Thank you.

I agree Briana should continue to be a big part of the show. People love her. I would like to see more of her relationship with Ryan outside of her mothers perspective. I also think that the fact that she's expecting, and her husband is facing deployment is an angle that many people can relate to right now. I don't think they should get rid of Vicki as much as I don't like her right now. I think Alexis must absolutely go far, far away. She isn't a good fit for the show because all she ever does is cop out anymore. There's lots of reasons that I don't like Alexis, but those things shouldn't drive people to want the women off the show. The drama obviously sells. I don't like Alexis for the show because she would rather hide behind doors and her husband that be out there and honest. I love Tamra and Heather and Gretchen. For all you Tamra haters she isn't going anywhere. She adds a huge boost to the show and agree with her or not she is entertaining!

Please Bravo get rid of Tamara...we need positive women, th e woman on all these shows have become so catty and awful. I would love to see some feel good stories..Brianna is a good example with the cancer scare, although I think it was really rude of her to say who is this man with my mom when Vicki barely new Ryan and Brianna could not seem to understand why her mom would have an issue with her daughter marrying someone she hardly knew. I know we can't tell our kids what to do but Brianna has no right to question Vicki's choise in a man when she gets angry with Vicki for doing the same thing to Brianna. I find it inetersting that Brianna and Ryan now live with Vicki in the lap of luxery...I am sure Ryan also knew Brianna was famous and her mom was rich and famous...I just feel he is a little bit of gold digger himself and so they need to stop talking about Vicki's man. Anyway...get rid Tamara, she is not funny anymore , she is cruel and evil. A truly bad example of how a woman should act, she judges everyone and laughs it off by saying she has never had a filter...that is no excuse horrible behavior. I am sure she would treat Heather bad but Heather is filthy rich and everything Tamara wishes she could be and she can make good contacts with the conections Heather has for her studio, in the entertainment industry. One thing about Tamara she is no dummy. I really can not stand her.
