“I remember when I first found out [we weren’t continuing], it felt like a little bit of a rug pull the day of, and then like days later, I was like, ‘That was the right decision,’” Tom told Us Weekly. “Even though it pained me to say that ’cause that was like my whole life, the bar and the show. Just everything revolved around that, and all of a sudden it was over. It felt a little abrupt, but as I get further and further away, I’m like, yeah it was time.”

“I think we could still could have made a few great seasons of Vanderpump Rules,” he added. “We had gas in the tank, but I think it might have been a little forced ’cause too many people were checked out of their friendships with other people, and it might have been like pulling teeth. But yeah, I miss it. I like the schedule… I miss cast trips. That’s like the best part. Oh my god, I just want to go on a cast trip, please! Maybe we can do like a family vacation, Jersey Shore style reunion of Vanderpump Rules someday.”

Of the new cast, Tom said, “I’m going to watch it. I’m not hating on it. I’m excited for them, the new generation. It’s such a, it’s a wave. I hope they enjoy riding the wave, no matter how short or long it lasts. I think it’s going to be good.”

“It’s got [Alex] Baskin behind it again and they’re not going to put out a show that’s not great. I think they found some magic again,” he continued. “I’m not saying it’s the same magic that we had, we were a particularly twisted group of people, but yeah. I think they got something special going.”
