Ratings
Miami Social attracted few viewers, received low ratings, and garnered negative press coverage. The network attempted to revitalize the show with a second season where the show would be recompiled into another series called Miami Social Club, but by February 2011 the network decided to instead use the Miami Social Club idea in The Real Housewives franchise. The filmed footage premiered as The Real Housewives of Miami on February 22, 2011.
