NEW YORK – January 14, 2014 – Bravo Media laces up for its own “March Madness” with the premieres of five new and returning series.

New Series:

SOUTHERN CHARM — Season:1 — Pictured: Witney Sudler-Smith, Thomas Ravenel, Craig Conover, Cameran Eubanks, Jenna Lee King, William Shepherd “Shep” Rose III

Kicking off on Monday, March 3 at 10p.m. ET/PT, new series “Southern Charm” goes behind the walls of Charleston, South Carolina’s most aristocratic families to reveal a world of exclusivity, money and scandal that goes back generations. The fast-paced, drama-filled docu-series follows six Charleston singles, Craig Conover, Cameran Eubanks, Jenna King, Thomas Ravenel, Shepard “Shep” Rose, and Whitney Sudler-Smith, struggling with the constraints of this tight-knit, posh society. The cast, some descendants of Vice Presidents and four-term Senators, and others from “new money,” is comprised of Southern bachelors who suffer from “Peter Pan Syndrome” by refusing to settle down; and the women in their lives who challenge them to grow up.  Viewers will see them launch political careers, build businesses, break hearts, and chase true love — all while struggling to preserve their family names.  Because in Charleston, you’re only as good as your last garden party and one social screw-up can taint generations to come.  Get to know the cast of “Southern Charm” with a half-hour preview special airing Monday, February 3 at 11:30p.m. ET/PT.

There is no shortage of outlandish moments and guttural laughs as the ladies find themselves as fish out of water when they leave the safety of Manhattan for more rustic locales like a cabin in the Berkshires and a “glamping” trip to Montana.
