It's happening: the all stars season of Real Housewives is finally coming to our screens, with the same A-list Housewives cast and a brand new name. On Wednesday, Sept. 1, Bravo revealed the first official cast photo for Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, but the premiere date is still as mysterious as ever.

The photo brings together Ramona Singer (RHOBH), Teresa Giudice (RHONJ), Cynthia Bailey (RHOA), Kenya Moore (RHOA), Luann de Lesseps (RHONY), Melissa Gorga (RHONJ), and, of course, Kyle Richards (RHOBH). Unfortunately, it's just a cast picture, not an actual photo of the Housewives on their Ultimate Girls Trip, but we'll take what we can get. Besides, we already know that the show will follow the Housewives as they go on a sunny trip to Turks and Caicos

Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip (which Bravo is apparently hoping we will call #RHUGT instead of "All-Stars," aka what we've been calling it all year) will premiere on Peacock sometime before the end of the year, according to Entertainment Weekly. But no official release date has been set. However, using a bit of Bravo scheduling analysis, we might be able to narrow it down.

It's generally not uncommon for production on a Real Housewives season to wrap filming about three months before it premieres. For example, RHOBH Season 11 finished filming in February and premiered in May. Season 13 of RHONY followed a similar schedule, wrapping in February and premiering in early May. Based on Luanne's Instagram post celebrating the end of filming on RHUGT, the All-Stars season wrapped sometime in early May, which, according to the three month rule, would put its premiere date in August. Well... we all know that didn't happen!

Given the production schedule, I'm going to guess that RHUGT will premiere sometime in September or October. The Real Housewives spinoff might not be airing on Bravo, but I have to assume it's still tied to the Housewives schedule, which makes me think it'll premiere sometime after the reunions for the current seasons of RHONY and RHOBH.

Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, I'm ready and waiting for the chaos to begin.
