The wait between seasons was never the same twice
Every returning show has a release rhythm, and RHOM's is the least steady one in the franchise — the same title going quiet for eight years, then settling into a normal annual cadence, then stretching again. This ranks the seven seasons purely by how long the gap was before each one arrived.

The 7, in order.
- #01
Eight years pass before Miami gets another season at all
No other RHOM gap comes close. Bravo shelves the franchise after season three, and it's Peacock, not Bravo, that finally brings it back — the longest wait any season on this list had to clear before it aired. - #02
The revival era's widest gap between two ordinary seasons
Season six wraps in late 2023; season seven doesn't premiere until June 2025. Nineteen months isn't a hiatus by RHOM's own history, but it's the longest stretch the show has asked its post-revival audience to sit through. - #03
The original run's first wait doubles as its first cast overhaul
Eighteen months separate the founding season from its follow-up, longer than the annual rhythm the rest of the original run would settle into. The wait and the widest cast reset the show had seen to that point land in the same season. - #04
A steady, unremarkable turnaround for Peacock's second Miami season
Season five arrives almost exactly a year after season four, the kind of ordinary annual gap a network schedule is built around. Nothing about the wait itself stands out — which is precisely the point after the gap before it. - #05
A quick turnaround closes out the original run
Season three lands under eleven months after season two, the tightest gap of Bravo's original Miami run. Nobody watching in 2013 had any reason to think it would also be the last new season for eight years. - #06
The tightest wait of the whole franchise, on the way back to linear
Season six arrives less than eleven months after season five, the shortest turnaround RHOM has ever managed. It's also the season that carries the show back onto Bravo's linear schedule, same-day on Peacock. - #07
The founding season, with no gap yet to measure
Every other entry on this list counts the months or years since the season before it. Season one has nothing to count from — the six-woman debut cast and Miami setting every later gap, short or eight years long, sets its clock from.
