Get ready for the 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.'According to the Hollywood Reporter, Bravo has given the go-ahead to four new series, including a Beverly Hills edition of its popular 'Real Housewives' franchise. (We're already imagining a crossover episode with the nearby 'Real Housewives of Orange County.')
Also getting the greenlight are 'Miami Social Club,' a reality series that chronicles the lives of Miami socialites, but apparently has nothing to do with Bravo's other Miami-based series, 'Miami Social,' 'Million Dollar Decorators,' about high-end designers, and the New York-based 'Pregnant in Heels.'

Meanwhile, the network has given new season orders to four of its regular series -- the 'Fashion Show,' 'Million Dollar Listing,' 'Tabitha's Salon Takeover' and 'Real Housewives of Atlanta.'
Other projects in development include a docu-series about 'So You Think You Can Dance' choreographer Mia Michaels and two culinary programs: 'Around the World in 80 Plates' and 'Commander in Chef.' '80 Plates' features beginner chefs facing challenges around the globe and 'Commander' has chefs battling in head-to-head competitions.
Bravo is also developing 'Fashion Masters,' a new series like 'Top Chef Masters,' but with clothing designers, and a singer-songwriter competition series 'Hitmakers.'
And in a bit of a surprise, the network also announced that it will venture into the world of scripted programming, including a project from 'Sex and the City' creator Darren Star. The show, titled 'I'm Not Myself These Days,' is a musical drama based on the book of the same name. The series will chronicle the life of New York broker who leads a double life as a drag queen.
