'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Cast Shake Up: Who's in, Who's out, and Who's Joining the Cast?

Bravo TV is looking to shake things up on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The once hit show, now in its fourth season has, become lackluster and has also seen a decline in ratings. Bravo plans to get rid of some housewives and add some new ones to try to remedy this problem.

First, lets talk about the ladies that are rumored to be walking away from the show.

Recently, Lisa Vanderpump has been vocal about walking away from all the drama. Her public fight with Brandi Glanville escalated this season and it really took its toll on her. She was quoted in "Life & Style" saying "Who know what will happen? But why would I stay?" To read more about Lisa and Brandi's drama click here

Carlton Gebbia is also one of the ladies rumored to be leaving the famous zip code. Carlton, who joined the cast this year, became the first Wiccan member of the housewives. She couldn't seem to find her footing and was often lost in the background or excluded from events, like the girl's getaway trip to Puerto Rico.

As for Brandi Glanvill, a petition asking Bravo to remove her from the show has been gaining attention. The petition which can be read on Radar Online says Brandi's behavior is "offensive and repulsive beyond the point of entertainment or 'good TV'."

As for the ladies that are coming to the show, producers have reportedly been courting Faye Resnick to return to the drama. Resnick who is one of Kyle friends has been seen on the show from time-to-time as a friend of the housewives, but each time she is featured she always seemed to be the center of the drama. She has causing chaos in the lives of leading ladies Brandi, Camille, and Lisa, so it's not wonder why producers would want to recruit her.

A source close to Resnick however, told Radar online that "Fay does not want to go back to the show" because "it is so nasty and bitchy and she just doesn't need it." The source however goes on to say that Resnick "thinks it was miserable being on the show BUT for the right price they could definitely make it worth her while."

Rumors have also been circling that producers have been courting Adrienne Maloof and Camille Grammer to return to the show. This would be the first time that ex-housewives rejoined the cast.

Could this new casting addition be just what the show needs to make it must watch TV again?
