Bravo Media has greenlit a second season of its first original scripted series "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce," from Universal Cable Productions (UCP). Production will commence this summer on 13-episodes.

Most recently, "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" earned series high (1/27/15) across all key demos with nearly 1.5 million total viewers, 983,000 adults 25-54 and 872,000 adults 18-49, according to Nielsen Live+3 data. The ninth episode increased double-digits over the prior episode, up 14 percent in total viewers, 12 percent among adults 18-49, and 10 percent among adults 25-54.

In "Rule #46: Keep The Holidays Low Key," Abby (Lisa Edelstein) takes advantage of the kids being with Jake (Paul Adelstein) to throw an "Adult Friendsgiving" dinner with new boyfriend Will (Warren Christie). But as strange things begin to happen around the house, Abby and Jo (Alanna Ubach) question whether or not a spirit has decided to join them for Thanksgiving. Meanwhile, Phoebe (Beau Garrett) invites Marco (Brandon Jay McLaren) and Delia (Necar Zadegan) gets a surprise visit from her father.
