As the trailblazer of the 'Real Housewives franchise, 'Real Housewives of Orange County' is one of the most popular reality shows. So when the OG 'Real Housewives' show began receiving a lot of backlash for its controversial casting choices (Kelly Dodd), and some problematic storylines with messy pot-stirring (Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge), Bravo made the decision to reboot the show.

As part of their rebooting efforts, Tamra and Kelly were shown the door while former housewife Heather Dubrow's return was hyped up. Though season 16 of 'RHOC' was off to a great start, things quickly went downhill when the cast members all began behaving like Heather's minions and ganging up on Shannon Beador and Noella Bergener. Fans grew tired of watching the drab and almost non-existent storylines of the ladies. Even the show's highly-anticipated reunion turned out to be boring as Heather, Gina Kirschnheiter, and Emily Simpson just focussed on tearing down Shannon. After watching the season and the reunion, fans began demanding Tamra's return for the upcoming season 17.

Many fans pointed out how Tamra and her messy pot-stirring were needed to make 'RHOC' entertaining and a fun show to watch. A fan tweeted, "@BravoTV this is your sign to bring back Vicki and Tamra! The entire season of #rhoc has been unbearable." "I had such high hopes for Fancy Pants but the truth is that #RHOC needs a lot more help than just her. It needs Tamra Judge and a miracle. #RHOC #RHOCReunion," wrote a fan. "This ‘reboot’ has been nothing short of boring and if Tamra doesn’t come back next season, cancel it. #RHOC," echoed a fan.



 



 



 



 

After watching all the ladies aside from Noella ganging up against Shannon, fans are hoping for Tamra's return to balance things out in Shannon's favor. A fan shared, "manifesting a S17 where Vicki and Tamra return to miraculously make-up with Shannon and team up to terrorize Heather and Gina #RHOC." "I will only accept Emily and Gina returning next season if Tamra does too, teams up with Shannon, and takes them down #RHOC," added a fan. "We can’t fire the entire cast or else we’ll just repeat this season. Given Jen and Noella another season, bring back Tamra, pop Gina down to Friend Of and we’ll have a solid show! #RHOC," suggested a fan. "Bring Tamra and Vicki back NOW! And Emily or Gina has to go…let’s see if one can shine alone! #RHOC," seconded a fan.
