A new show in my task of updating the list of cancelled shows of 2012 and the list of renewed shows of 2012, in this case, a comeback call, as E! renewed Married to Jonas for a second season.
Kevin Jonas and his small town Jersey girl wife Danielle will return to E! for a second season of the popular half-hour reality series “Married to Jonas,” produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions. The new season will follow the couple as the Jonas Brothers finish their new album and head back on tour for the first time in three years. Meanwhile, Dani explores starting her own business back in New Jersey and the Jonas and Deleasa families become even more close-knit. Season two of “Married to Jonas” will debut spring 2013 on E!

I expect they’ll continue to charm and amuse people along the way, generating even more Jonas family fans.”
In its first season, “Married to Jonas” gave viewers an intimate, entertaining peek inside the lives of the oldest member of the Jonas Brothers and his down-to-earth girl next door wife Dani. Romantic, funny, heart-felt and always engaging, the series followed the young couple as Kevin reunited in the studio with his siblings, and he and Dani confronted the ups and downs of settling down in New Jersey.
The series was an instant hit with audiences, attracting nearly 1.8 million total viewers to its premiere episode in August 2012. By its second and third weeks, the series ranked as the most watched program in its time period among Women 18-34 against all television competition from 10-10:30pm on Sunday nights – broadcast, cable & pay cable combined.
