Being one of the biggest networks for reality television, Bravo has had many shows over the years featuring young people and how they navigate their lives. Over the years some of these shows started to merge and have crossovers within themselves. 

The most iconic trio in this crossover world would be Southern Charm, Summer House, and Winter House. Whether it is cast members becoming friends, forming romantic relationships, or vacationing together, these shows have been connected basically from the start. 

There has been an immense amount of speculation in the Bravo community of how to watch these shows in order with the multiple crossovers and timelines. But here's the breakdown on how to watch Southern Charm, Summer House, and Winter House in chronological order:

Southern Charm Seasons 1-3:

Premiering in 2014, the place you want to start is Southern Charm seasons 1-3. Here you will be introduced to key personalities like Craig Conover and Austen Kroll, who play key roles in different shows coming up. 

Summer House Season 1:

From there you want to jump to the Hamptons and enjoy the first season of Summer House. Where you are going to meet key personalities, including Kyle Cooke, Lindsay Hubbard, and Amanda Batula, who end up on different shows in the future. 

Southern Charm Season 4:

Getting back to Charleston, we get to see the crumbling of Craig and Naomie Olindo’s relationships, which also causes pushback in the future. 

Summer House Season 2:

During season two of Summer House, we are still following the same crew of New Yorkers and their summer lives in the Hamptons. 

Southern Charm Season 5:

Still independent from the other shows, we are still following the group of young elites in Charleston. 

Summer House Season 3:

Here we are still independent from the other shows but are introduced to Paige DeSorbo, who will play a critical role in the crossovers of these shows. 

Southern Charm Season 6:

Still independent from the other shows, we are still following the group of young elites in Charleston. 

Summer House Season 4:

As we are still following the group of weekend Hampton vacationers, here we see the first crossover as Craig, Austen, and Shep Rose visit the summer house for Kyle's 37th birthday. A notable moment in this season that doesn’t play a huge part in the timeline but is important to know is the hookup between Craig and new Summer House castmate Jules Daoud. 

Southern Charm Season 7, then Summer House Season 5:

As this season was filmed during the 2020 COVID pandemic, there were no crossovers. 

Winter House Season 1:

Winter House is Bravo’s first show dedicated to crossing over personalities from different shows. Here we follow cast members from Southern Charm, Summer House, Vanderpump Rules, Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard, and Below Deck and some of their friends as they spend two weeks in Stowe, Vermont, on a ski trip. 

Notable cast members from this season were Kyle, Amanda, Lindsay, Paige, Ciara, Andrea, and Luke from Summer House and Craig and Austen from Southern Charm. Throughout the season there was a love triangle between Paige, Andrea, and Craig, which became the beginning of Paige and Craig's long-term relationship, which brought these shows together. Additional relationships brew like Ciara and Austen.

Summer House Season 6:

This season Craig and Austen appear frequently in the Hamptons, while Paige and Craig are navigating their new relationship. Also, Lindsay and Austen take their friendship to a new level despite Ciara still having unresolved feelings for Austen. 

Southern Charm Season 8:

Paige officially joins the cast of Southern Charm as a “friend of” or Craig’s girlfriend. 

Winter House Season 2:

The same crew, with the exception and addition of a few others, heads back to Vermont, where Paige and Craig navigate living together with the input of their friends. 

From here we follow the Summer House, Southern Charm, and Winter House order until you are up to speed with the current seasons. The crossovers tend to slow down as Paige and Craig navigate their long-distance relationship and inevitably break up, and most of the cast of Winter House is replaced, and the show is cancelled after its third season. 

You can stream all the seasons of Summer House, Southern Charm, and Winter House now on Peacock.
