Jeff Lewis Spoke about ‘Flipping Out’ Ending in a 2018 Interview
People magazine reported that Lewis spoke about “Flipping Out” ending before it was officially announced that Bravo had not renewed the series after season 11. According to People magazine, Lewis appeared on an October 2018 episode of Jenny McCarthy’s SiriusXM radio show, “The Jenny McCarthy Show,” wherein he shared he did not believe the Bravo series would be continuing after season 11.
“Because of all of the issues that have been going on with me—you know, the pending lawsuits, and also the [‘Jeff Lewis Live’] radio show — it has created a lot of problems for me at Bravo, because I have talked about behind-the-scenes, I’ve talked about contracts. So I’ve had a lot of heat from Bravo. They have not renewed my contract. It expires on October 15, and I am looking for a job,” said Lewis during the interview as reported by People.
Jeff Lewis Discussed Being ‘Fired’ From Bravo While Speaking to Andy Cohen
Lewis spoke about the end of “Flipping Out” during a July 2024 episode of his podcast “Jeff Lewis Has Issues,” alongside his guest Bravo producer Andy Cohen.
He explained that he was upset about the future of “Hollywood Houselift.” He said while the show was successful, Amazon Freevee was no longer an option for his series.
“They’ve offered me something on [Amazon] Prime, but I don’t know if it’s for me,” said Lewis.
He then told Cohen that he was trying to focus on the fact that he remained successful after “Flipping Out” ended.
“I have to remember when you fired me from ‘Flipping Out,’ I landed in a really great place,” said Lewis.
In addition, Lewis said higher-ups at Bravo had told him that “Flipping Out” could not continue because of his feud with his former friend and assistant, Jenni Pulos.
“That’s why we didn’t get a season 12. I was told ‘We don’t see a world where the show could go without you and Jenni.’ And I understood,” said Lewis during the podcast episode.
