The reality TV viewer numbers are in with two returning long-running shows on the list, 16 and Pregnant and Real Housewives of Orange County.
16 and Pregnant kicked off season five with 1.194 million viewers and RHOC's season nine premiere attracted 1.703 million fans. For comparison's sake, the most recent premieres of RHOBH and RHONY garnered 1.592 million and 1.329 million, respectively. Six weeks in, 1.259 million watched much ado about nothing on Real Housewives of New York this week.
The season six finale of Real Housewives of Atlanta attracted 3.816 million fans, bringing its season average to 3.83 million. RHOA could finish season six with a four million average if the reunion shows do well – and that's likely considering the hoopla surrounding Kenya and Porsha.

Also, 2.155 million watched Basketball Wives L.A., and 2.118 million tuned in to see Toya confront Simone on Married to Medicine. The mid-season finale of Dance Moms logged 1.998 million, while a trip to Shep's family plantation on Southern Charm garnered 1.077 million viewers.
Teen Mom 2 aired three times too many this week – the season finale aired twice, Sunday and Tuesday, and part one of the reunion aired Tuesday. I don't know what to make of the finale numbers – do I take the higher number? average them out? add them together? That's already too much thinking than Teen Mom 2 deserves, so I'll just let you check out the numbers below. 😉
