The first season of VPR premiered on January 7, 2013. The series was developed as a spin-off of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, on which Lisa was a cast member at the time. (Lisa also serves as an executive producer on the spinoff show.) The show focused on Lisa’s West Hollywood establishment,, and the lives of the bartenders and waiters, known as SURvers.

The Season 1 premiere of VPR debuted as a crossover episode with Season 4 of RHOBH, featuring a conversation between a then-RHOBH cast member and VPR cast member Scheana Shay, who'd oncehad an affair with said Housewife's ex-husband, Eddie Cibrian.

Vanderpump Rules follows the lives of the current and former SURvers and bartenders at SUR. And, when Lisa opened with Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval as co-owners, the series followed the inner workings of that establishment as well.

As a boss and mentor to the cast, Lisa is seen as the voice of reason on the show, and she often offers her wisdom on the drama. The series has detailed friendships, fallouts, relationships, breakups, marriages, divorces, cheating scandals, business ventures, the birth of children and more among the cast members.

Season 10 documented the revelation that Tom Sandoval had been cheating on Ariana Madix—his girlfriend of nine years with whom he owned a house — with their mutual friend and fellow cast member.

The cheating scandal was discovered in March 2023, after filming had stopped for Season 10, but the cameras quickly picked back up to capture the fallout of the situation and an additional episode was added to the end of the season. An emotional Season 10 reunion documented the first time some of the cast members had seen each other since the scandal unfolded.

So far, 10 seasons of Vanderpump Rules have aired. The 11th season will premiere on January 30, 2024.

The theme song for the series is “Raise Your Glass” by Dena Deadly.

“I definitely neglected [that song] for a lot of years because my standard was the Grammys and so it was like, this is no big deal to me. Now, I have nothing but humility and gratitude for it,” the singer told Rolling Stone in May 2023 of the song’s popularity in relation to VPR. “People are enjoying it and joy is radical in these times. I’m just glad to be a part of that. I’m just so happy that people love it and are rocking out to it in the club.”
