Tori Spelling’s D-List Existence Gets More Oxygen

Cable network greenlights fifth season of “Tori & Dean.” Candy Spelling can’t be too happy about that.

Oxygen has ordered up a fifth season of its signature series starring Tori Spelling.

"Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood," from World of Wonder Prods., will return for another round of carefully crafted reality show hijinks next spring, the network said Wednesday. The greenlight is no surprise given the show’s strong ratings (its finale was the most watched show in O2’s history).

Possible highlight of season five: Tori and Dean take a cross-country road trip with their family!

Here’s (portions of) the release:

NEW YORK, October 14, 2009 – Oxygen Media today announced the return of a fifth season of the popular and record-breaking reality series "Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood," to air in Spring, 2010. The announcement was made today by Amy Introcaso-Davis, Senior Vice President, Original Programming and Development for Oxygen Media.

Last season, "Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood" became Oxygen’s most watched season among A18-49, W18-49 and total viewers. In addition, the series finale marked another Oxygen first, delivering over one million viewers in the key A18-49 demo and making it the network’s most watched telecast ever. Also, the "Tori & Dean" microsite at www.Oxygen.com saw triple digit growth over the course of season four with a 111% increase from the premiere to the finale.

"Tori and Dean have become the Hollywood family next door," said Introcaso-Davis. "We’re excited to bring back the adorable family that so many Oxygen viewers love to follow."

"This has given us the amazing opportunity to reach our fans who have become our friends in such an intimate and unique way. It’s an honor to bring our living room into theirs," said Tori Spelling.

In previous seasons, fans witnessed how the dynamic duo balanced their Hollywood life while catering to their two children. In the new season, Tori and Dean will offer an even closer look into their family life and at their own relationship, which will include a first ever Spelling-McDermott cross-country family road trip.
