variety.comKate Aurthur editor“Shahs of Sunset” won’t be returning to Bravo anytime in the near future, Variety has confirmed. The reality show — which has run on the network for nine seasons after premiering in March 2012 — has been put on hiatus.Bravo rarely uses the word “canceled,” since it sometimes revives series years later.
