The NBC upfronts are upon us, which means the executives at the network are showcasing their slate for the upcoming year in hopes of dazzling advertisers and media buyers. For reality TV fans like us, that means we’re getting updates on a ton of new series coming to our screens, in addition to a bunch of our favorites getting picked up for new seasons. On Bravo, they just announced two new shows: Making it in Manhattan and On Safari!

New shows coming soon to Bravo

Making it in Manhattan and On Safari are both working titles, so they’ll probably have cuter names once they finally come to our screens. Either way, we’re excited for some fresh franchises coming to Bravo. Let’s get into the details.

According to a press release from Bravo, Making it in Manhattan follows a group of friends who “navigate the trials and triumphs of young adulthood.” The press release explained that some of the cast members of this upcoming show come from well-known families, while others are fresh faces to the Big Apple. Basically, this sounds like a younger version of Real Housewives of New York.

Bravo’s other new show, On Safari, sounds heavily inspired by Below Deck. It’s going to follow a bunch of safari guides in South Africa who work with rich people. The synopsis describes “the spectacular world of the most luxurious safari experiences” and the guides who “create once-in-a-lifetime moments for their adventure-seeking clientele.”

This sounds like Bravo’s semi-annual attempt at replicating the success of Below Deck. They’ve tried this before with a ski lodge and an adults-only campground, neither of which received a second season. Perhaps On Safari will break that curse. Either way, we’re looking forward to seeing what Bravo has in store for us over the next year.
