Last season, Bravo brought back "The Real Housewives of Miami" from what many considered was definite cancelation after very little buzz and low ratings for its debut season. Season 2, which had about three times the episodes than its first season, saw a slight bump in its ratings numbers. It attracted 1.25 million viewers to its finale compared to the 1.09 million viewers who tuned into the previous season-ender.

Purveyors of Pop, the production company behind the show's sophomore year makeover, will continue on for its third season.
