15 Shows That Are Mostly Lifestyle Porn
For five seasons (and it continues), ” Sunset Sale ” has been a solid performer for Netflix, going from a reality show ostensibly about the powerful, high-margin world of luxury real estate in Los Angeles to a veritable meme factory filled with comely people squabbling over for something special and occasionally selling mansions. It’s already inspired a Tampa spin-off, and Netflix recently released the trailer for the latest iteration: Selling the OC .
It’s easy for the uninitiated to get offended by this type of reality show, but even high-profile, prestigious drama TV shows usually go to great lengths (and spend a lot of money) to show us beautiful people in a luxurious setting: Downton Abbey . , Legacy , Good Fight , Anatomy of a Scandal , Hacks etc. We will surely be better as a species when we can show the same interest in poor people… but here we are.
