Real Housewives of Orange County Season 16 fans reveal their disappointment with the season. The Bravo reality series has reportedly hit an all-time low with viewers.

When Bravo first began teasing the return of Heather Dubrow, many fans looked forward to her return. However, fan opinions have changed immensely.

Real Housewives of Orange County: Fans Disappointed with Season 16

According to fans, the Real Housewives of Orange County‘s finale did not end with a bang but rather a low thud. Viewers reveal that they are very disappointed with the entire season.

Some fans claim that they ditched the show after the first few episodes. They feel too much emphasis was being placed on Heather Dubrow’s drama.

If one person loves Season 16 failure, it is Kelly Dodd. Kelly took to Twitter to bash the season. The former RHOC star reveals that the ratings have gone right down the toilet since she was fired. Many believe Bravo placed a lot of faith in Heather Dubrow’s return to carry the show.

Kelly Dodd Calls Out Bravo on RHOC Ratings

However, it did not take long before Real Housewives of Orange County fans grew tired of the same ongoing storyline.

Dodd claims that even with the controversy surrounding her in the prior season, the show was still pulling in over one million viewers each week. So now Kelly is calling out Bravo wanting to know what their excuse is now?

Sure there were a few heated and interesting moments among the women. But, most revolved around Shannon Beador feeling misunderstood and unappreciated as a friend.

Or, Heather Dubrow and Noella Bergener are constantly going back and forth over why neither one really likes the other. In the end, most of the fans called this season dull.

So, where does this leave the reunion? What can Real Housewives of Orange County fans expect? Heather Dubrow reveals that she is having a special moment during the reunion filming.

When Andy Cohen asks Heather how she feels being back at the reunion, she gushes, “I have to say I have always liked the reunion. And this is my first time sitting next to you at my sixth reunion.”

Heather Outs Shannon Beador’s Past Secrets

The reunion teaser trailer reveals that fans will see more of Real Housewives of Orange County Heather Dubrow and Noella Bergener hashing it out of the inappropriate birthday gift Noella gave Heather’s daughter.

Also, Heather lashes out at Shannon, telling her she could have blown up her family years ago. Heather reveals that she knew from the beginning that Shannon’s ex-David was cheating on her. Dubrow also outs that Shannon knew all along.

As far as other RHOC reunion highlights appear, there will be a lot of rehashing numerous petty arguments of who is jealous of whose friendships and who owes who an apology.

Did you enjoy Heather Dubrow’s return, or do you believe significant changes are due before next season?
