I’m pleased with our journey collectively as we rebranded networks, pivoted to streaming, elevated the true crime style and noticed the Bravo fandom come to life. I’m leaving the most effective staff in place to proceed to succeed in new heights and develop on the various successes we’ve got achieved.
