The ratings are in and the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 finale earned massive numbers for Bravo.
Episode 15 of Season 10 earned a huge 0.83 in the all-important P18-49 demo and 1,885,000 live viewers according to Nielsen, making this the highest-rated episode of the season by far.

For comparison’s sake, this is up over last week’s episode (0.59 / 1,437,000) which was originally planned as the Season 10 finale before Bravo decided to pick back up cameras on Vanderpump Rules.
While not quite a series high — only a few episodes from the early seasons rate higher than this week’s finale — Vanderpump Rules was the number 2 show on all of cable last night, Watch What Happens Live took home spot number 4, and last week’s episode rated well enough as a repeat to take the number 8 spot (0.25 / 671,000).
The ratings success pushed Watch What Happens Live to another season high as well, with Ariana Madix’s solo episode earning a strong 0.66 in the demo and 1,493,000 live viewers.
As previously reported, the ratings success is no surprise for the Bravo hit as it continues to grow on an almost week-to-week basis as Scandoval continues to dominate the headlines.
The ratings are more-than-impressive, however, as the show now out-rates almost everything else on Bravo including shows from the Below Deck and Real Housewives franchises, which traditionally have been the network’s highest-rated programs.
In addition to the live numbers, the network previously announced that the series was also doing massive numbers in delayed viewing, with over 2 million viewers watching the Season 10 premiere in the first three days. Plus, the network revealed to Variety in an exclusive just yesterday (May 18) that Episode 14 “delivered a series high of 3.3 million total viewers in viewing across platforms, 1.9 million of whom are in Bravo’s target 18-to-49 demographic.” Clearly, Vanderpump Rules is here to stay.
In addition to Ariana, the Bravo hit stars Lala Kent, James Kennedy, Katie Maloney, Lisa Vanderpump, Tom Schwartz, Tom Sandoval, Raquel Leviss, Scheana Shay, and Ally Weber.
Part 1 of the reunion airs next Wednesday, May 24 at 9|8c on Bravo.
