Netflix Cancels Buying Beverly Hills Series

Netflix has canceled 'Buying Beverly Hills,' a reality show centered on Mauricio Umansky and his family, after two seasons due to low viewership relative to production costs. The announcement came following the premiere of the second season in March 2024. The series, which featured Umansky's daughters and explored personal dramas including his marital issues with Kyle Richards, struggled to attract a strong audience. Despite its engaging content, the show did not meet Netflix's expectations, leading to the decision to discontinue it. The cancellation reflects a broader trend for Netflix as it reassesses its unscripted programming lineup. Netflix remains committed to producing similar shows, indicating a shift in strategy rather than a retreat from the genre.
