Season 11 of Bravo’s hit show Vanderpump Rules is a must-watch for many reality TV fans who want to see what happens after “Scandoval.”
Yes, I’ll admit — I’m one of those reality TV fans.
Cast member Tom Sandoval cheated on longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix with fellow cast member Raquel Leviss. Cameras were rolling last season shortly after the affair was exposed.
Since then, Madix’s career has exploded with her appearance on Broadway in the hit musical “Chicago.”
With the latest season of the reality show premiering in January 2024, fans will be watching to see how the cast picks up the pieces in the wake of the cheating scandal.
If you want to follow the drama, I’ve got a breakdown of the best ways to stream Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules.
Sling TV
My first recommendation is a live TV streaming service called Sling TV. Bravo is included in the Sling Blue plan, which costs $40 per month at the time of this writing.
Other live TV services that carry Bravo are $70 per month or more. They include:
- YouTube TV
- Hulu + Live TV
- DIRECTV STREAM
- Fubo
Of these more expensive options, YouTube TV, DIRECTV STREAM and Fubo typically offer free trials. Hulu + Live TV does not.
YouTube TV is the most well-rounded live TV streaming service from my testing, but it’s pricier than Sling.
With any of these live TV streaming services, you’ll be able to watch new Vanderpump Rules episodes as they premiere on Tuesday nights. That’s the benefit of a live TV service.
If you’re away from your TV, you can always set your DVR. These services include cloud DVR storage in their plans.
Live TV streaming services are expensive, so this is only the best option if you consider Vanderpump Rules “appointment TV” and will be watching episodes as they premiere.
Otherwise, there’s a much cheaper option if you prefer to watch on your schedule.
Peacock
My second recommendation is to stream Vanderpump Rules Season 11 on Peacock.
Bravo shows are available to stream on Peacock the day after they premiere on cable. That includes Vanderpump Rules and episodes of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, which regularly features Vanderpump Rules cast members.
You need either a Peacock Premium or Premium Plus subscription to watch Bravo shows on the service.
Peacock Premium is the most affordable option at $5.99 per month. This plan is ad-supported. However, the $11.99 Premium Plus plan doesn’t include commercials for most programming.
That may be a better plan if you want to binge-watch past seasons of the show, which are also on Peacock.
I track streaming TV deals throughout the year. For the past several, Peacock has offered a significant discount on its service around Black Friday.
You can find the latest streaming deals on MichaelSavesDeals.com.
Final Thought
With so many people cutting the cable TV cord and switching to streaming, I give NBCUniversal a lot of credit for putting Bravo shows on the more affordable Peacock service.
However, if you want to watch Vanderpump Rules or other shows as they premiere, you’ll need to pay up for a live TV service.
Fortunately, live TV streaming services have no contracts. You can cancel anytime.
