Oxygen has just greenlighted a Bad Girls All Star Battle season. While Bad Girls also happens to be the name of a pilot over at NBC this season, Bad Girls’s All-stars season will actually be based on Oxygen’s moderately famous program, Bad Girls Club, which is currently in its 10th season at the network.
Bad Girls All Star Battle will follow fourteen women who first appeared on the Bad Girls Club and who will be competing this time around for the title of “Baddest Bad Girl of All Time, “ because that isn’t a redundant title or anything. Additionally, Deadline is reporting the fourteen women will also be competing for a $100,000 prize, which is a lot of money to hand to someone for simply being a trainwreck. The new season of the show will shoot in Miami and will air on Oxygen during the summer of 2013.
The Bad Girls Club has averaged around 2 million total viewers when adding in Live+7 ratings, which would be horrible on network television, but is great for a cable channel like Oxygen, a network that is currently mostly known for The Glee Project. After airing for ten seasons, the Bad Girls Club certainly has enough contestants to be placed under the spotlight, once more. We’ll have to wait and see if the All Star Battle is a ratings success, or if it actually forces a drop in the ratings, like the All-star seasons of Dancing with the Stars and more recently Celebrity Apprentice.
