“Vanderpump Rules” is returning for Season 12 — with a brand-new cast. Bravo announced that the entire cast has been scrapped in favor of a “new group of close-knit SUR-vers.” “Vanderpump Rules” premiered in January 2013 with Stassi Schroeder, Scheana Shay, Jax Taylor, Katie Maloney, Tom Sandoval and Kristen Doute.
