Andy Cohen is sharing his cryptic reaction to “Vanderpump Rules” being completely revamped.
“These were the best days of our lives…” he posted via X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday — just hours after news of the cast shake-up was revealed.
His post is a reference to the Emmy-nominated show’s theme song, “Raise Your Glass” by Dreamy Sugar, which features lyrics that include, “You know that it’s our time / These are the best days of our lives / Just raise your glasses high / This one’s for you tonight.”
Andy Cohen paid tribute to “Vanderpump Rules” after news broke that the cast was being revamped.
He made a reference to the show’s theme song on Tuesday.
Bravo announced earlier Tuesday that the entire cast of the reality show had been scrapped and was being replaced by a “new group of close-knit SUR-vers.”
“The last 12 years of filming have been an extraordinary run full of laughter, tears and everything in between,” Lisa Vanderpump, who owns SUR and has a hand in hiring all of the servers, said in a statement.
“I can’t thank enough those who have shared their lives. How I love you all. In the restaurant business, one shift always gives way to another. Cheers to the next generation of ‘Vanderpump Rules.’”
On Tuesday, it was announced that “Vanderpump Rules” was undergoing a cast shake-up.
Lisa Vanderpump, photographed in the middle, celebrated the news via social media.
As for executive producer Alex Baskin, he talked about what “a thrill it is to build on the legacy of this series by doing it all over again.”
He added, “With profound appreciation for the original group and their iconic run, we can’t wait for the audience to see a dynamic new group of co-workers and friends make their way through life together.”
Filming for the new season is set to start next year, but it’s still unknown who will be part of the show and when it will premiere.
The previous cast has included Scheana Shay and Katie Maloney, who have been on the show since Season 1.
Ariana Madix has also been a main cast member on the show.
The new cast news comes months after a source told Page Six that production had been paused for the time being.
“Everyone needs a moment to decompress after two very rough, intense seasons,” the insider told us in April.
Cohen, who is Bravo’s head honcho, later clarified that pauses in filming happen “all the time with the ‘Housewives.’”
The show went on pause in April.
The OG cast has been featured on the show for 11 seasons.
Lala Kent was also a part of the “Vanderpump Rules” world.
“Vanderpump Rules” became a fan favorite when it premiered in January 2013, initially following the lives of Jax Taylor, Stassi Schroeder, Tom Sandoval, Katie Maloney, Scheana Shay, Kristen Doute as they worked at Vanderpump’s SUR.
Notable members like Ariana Madix, Lala Kent, Tom Schwartz, James Kennedy, Raquel Leviss and Brittany Cartwright also joined the cast.
Following the success of “Pump Rules,” Bravo produced the spin-off “The Valley” while Hulu did “Vanderpump Villa.”
