Additionally, Bravo provides advertisers the opportunity to engage with our fans on these groundbreaking multiplatform events through social storytelling and creative solutions. The network will air two back-to-back Social Editions on Saturday, April 7 beginning with "The Real Housewives of Orange County" at 7pm ET/PT and "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" at 8pm ET/PT and then again the following Saturday, April 14 at 7pm ET/PT.

"Viewers' intense passion for Bravo shows is widely known and evident in their countless tweets and Facebook posts. This gives them a new reason for watching their favorite shows a second time around."

Social Editions are averaging a 21 percent increase among total viewers and 16 percent increase with adults 18-49 compared to their primetime encore episodes.
