The Real Housewives Of New Jersey could be about to get a new look after Andy Cohen claimed the reality series would be “rebooted.”
During a segment on his Andy Cohen Live radio show for SiriusXM, Cohen indicated that the cast could be completely changed in favor of “new faces” while chatting with a person who was angry about the cast and direction of the current show.
The woman, who complained that RHONJ is “so boring right now” and said she wanted to see longtime star Melissa Gorga and newcomer Margaret Josephs dumped in favor of keeping Teresa Giudice, was initially unmoved after Andy said there would be “big new changes to the show.”
After the caller continued with a series of complaints about the current season, Andy interjected: “We’re rebooting the show.”
DailyMail.com has reached out to Bravo representatives for comment.

“We’re going to reboot it,” Cohen continued. “We’re going to do something different.”
The caller went on to talk about Teresa’s presence on the show, before Andy appeared to try to finish his speech.
“Okay, okay. Well, we’ll see what we do. We’ll see,” the Watch What Happens Live host said, seemingly annoyed, as they ended the conversation.
“I don’t know. Maybe they’re just new faces. We’ll see,” he added.
Andy has been outspoken in recent weeks about his desire to reshape RHONJ, though the exasperated tone of his latest comments suggests he may have been trying to put a stop to a series of grievances rather than set a definitive direction for the series.
On his radio show last week, Cohen said the show’s creative team was “going to find a solution” after a fan who called in opined that it needed a “rebrand,” according to Page six.
Despite being singled out by the latest disgruntled person to call out Cohen as one of the sources of RHONJ’s current problems, Melissa Goga indicated that she is “excited for what’s to come” while speaking with Page six.
“I think it’s time for some kind of change,” she said, adding that she was “excited to see what’s next and where this show goes from here,” though she claimed to have no idea what Bravo might be planning for the long-running reality series.

The series reportedly ended up canceling its Season 14 reunion and instead had the ladies watch the season finale in two separate rooms.
Dolores Catania (pictured) was reportedly the only star who got along well enough with everyone to switch viewing rooms.
Last month, People reported that a reunion for the current season 14 had been cancelled due to the women’s toxic interactions.
“The network is coming up with a different concept to close the season,” said a source familiar with the situation.
The solution the stars reportedly came up with was to set up two separate rooms for a season 14 finale viewing party, with the reality stars divided into warring tribes to cut down on fighting.
According to Page Six, the only woman who escaped the feud was Dolores Catania, who was so beloved by both groups that she was able to split her time between them.
