The Bravo reality show, which returns tonight, had to film under quarantine conditions for six weeks straight because of the coronavirus. In previous seasons, cast members filmed only on weekends, allowing the drama to build up. “For the first time ever, we’re spending Monday through Friday together as friends and we get a glimpse into what other people do during the week," says cast member Kyle Cooke of filming 24/7. "It had the tendency to turn into a pressure cooker because we didn’t leave.”
