WE tv has greenlit Marriage
Boot Camp: Bridezillas for a second season, the network announced Thursday.
The network renewed the series for 10 episodes with a
premiere of early 2014.
The reality series, which sends five previous Bridezillas
and their husbands to marriage counseling, recently wrapped up its first
season.
"This has been a strong summer for WE tv, with solid
ratings growth largely driven by Marriage
Boot Camp: Bridezillas, which has really resonated with viewers," said
Kim Martin, president and general manager of WE tv. "We are excited to
build on this momentum with an order for a second season of this popular show,
which helped make WE tv the No. 1 women's network for young women on Friday
nights this summer."
Marriage Boot Camp:
Bridezillas premiered to 572,000 viewers on May 31 and wrapped with 837,000
in its July 26 finale.
In the show, the Bridezillas and their significant others
participate in an intensive couples therapy boot camp. The two-week camp is led
by Jim and Elizabeth Carroll, a husband and wife counseling team who use a
series of exercises and drills to help save the couples' marriages.
