Bravo fans have been left wondering where one of the network’s late-night shows has gone in recent weeks. Viewers expecting to see “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” have been left disappointed as the show seemingly disappeared from schedules.
The pop-culture talk show, which is hosted by Andy Cohen, has been a fixture of Bravo for almost two decades. However, the last episode aired on August 16. In that episode, Cohen welcomed Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat to the Clubhouse, but the series has not returned since.
Making the break even more mysterious is the fact that Bravo has made no announcement of a hiatus. The network has not made any announcement about why it is currently off the air either.
‘Watch What Happens Live’ Fans Were Confused by Its Disappearance
According to The Sun, the break has been so unusual that some fans believed it was an error. The outlet reports viewers believing that recording devices had simply not recorded the show, rather than it not broadcasting. Usually airing from Sunday to Thursday, there have been no new episodes since August 16.
Fortunately for fans of the show, there is an innocent explanation. Host Cohen has been on vacation in recent weeks, meaning it has not been possible to film the show as normal. In recent days, Cohen has shared social media videos of himself and his family in the Hamptons. He was also spotted attending a John Mayer concert last week.
TV schedules also show “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” returning that week, with subsequent episodes on September 9 and 10. However, there has not yet been any announcement about guests.
It is not unusual for regular shows like “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” to take a break in the late summer. Late-night series in particular often go off the air in the run-up to the fall schedule starting.
‘Watch What Happens Live’ Is Already Renewed
GettyFans worried about “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” disappearing completely don’t have to worry just yet. Bravo has already renewed the late-night show for a 24th season. That will see the series run through 2027.
The greenlight came as the network announced a new deal with Cohen. This included an extension to his first-look development agreement that’s in place with NBCUniversal.
“After more than 20 years with Bravo, I’m full of intense gratitude that I get to continue living out my dream here,” Cohen said when the renewal was announced earlier this year.
Cohen remains deeply involved with the “Real Housewives” franchise and its reunion specials. He also plays a major role at BravoCon and other live events.
