‘RHOA’ Season 16 Ratings Continue to Dive as Viewers Reject Reboot — Bravo Scrambles to Spin the Numbers

It looks like Bravo is in full damage control mode when it comes to The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s ratings, but the numbers tell the real story.

Following the all-time series low for the Season 16 premiere, the ratings for Episode 2 have now dropped even further—pulling in just 672,000 total viewers with a 0.16 demo rating (P18-49), marking yet another series low in the key demo.

After reports highlighted the steep decline in live viewership, Bravo attempted to reframe the narrative, emphasizing delayed viewing and Peacock streaming in an effort to paint a more positive picture.

While it’s true that streaming numbers have seen some growth, it doesn’t erase the fact that RHOA’s live audience is rapidly vanishing.

For years, RHOA was Bravo’s flagship Housewives franchise, consistently delivering powerhouse ratings. But these latest numbers suggest that even longtime fans aren’t tuning in like they used to. The days of RHOA dominating Sunday nights seem to be over, and no amount of spin can change the reality that viewership is continuing to decline week after week.

With major cast changes and a season already met with lukewarm reception, the real question is—how much lower can the show go before Bravo steps in? Because at this rate, the biggest drama isn’t happening on-screen — it’s in the ratings.
