Among the highlights is a new “Below Deck” spinoff, called “Below Deck Adventure,” which will premiere on Bravo early next year, and is set in the “glacial fjords of Norway.” Also on Bravo will be the tentatively titled “Kandi OLG Project,” premiering later this year, which will follow Kandi Burruss’ expanding Atlanta restaurant project. The much-Instagrammed “Summer House Winter Charm,” a mashup of the Bravo shows “Southern Charm” and “Summer House,” will debut on Bravo in the fall.
