Owning Manhattan

I love Ryan and have been following him for years. I expected this show to be similar to his previous Real Estate show but I guess Netflix is more concerned with drama than good tv. The office drama is not entertaining and I'm done watching the series. I would love to see a good show like selling New York or selling Manhattan. Ryan does a good job of maintaining his positive attitude but most of the characters are really hard to watch and some of them need to be removed altogether. If there is a second season let's focus more on the selling of real estate and less on the love life of the associates.

More selling and less with the scripted reality show nonsense. I would have preferred just Ryan but instead we got these model/actors that frankly just ruin everything. I loved the originality of the first show he did but this one just lacks any substance. Scripted reality tv hit its peak and it's going downhill fast. It's fine for mindless watching when there's nothing else but this didn't hold my attention and found it more interesting to just scroll on IG.

A more interesting premise would be learning sales techniques from Ryan and what it's really like running his own shop minus the fake reality actors they got for this one.

This was less about real estate and more about drama.

After watching the full series, I wondered if any of the personal situations in this so-called "reality" were actually real, as they seemed very fake and scripted. I went into the Serhant website and found that, with the exception of Chloe, who is a former actress, NONE of the supposed realtors in the series are actually working for Ryan, so they are likely actors playing a role, an unconvincing one at that. Maybe I could have overlooked a few, but for the most part, I saw two familiar faces: Ryan and Chloe.

I wonder what was the point of the series. Don't recommend it.

Assuming Ryan was paid handsomely for this show and one can't blame him for that. Netflix is a great platform to showcase his charm. So understand why he did it but the show is just yet another Netflix piece of vapid banality.

MDL felt authentic and real- this one is focused again on a heap of young pretty people desperate for fame. Same Netflix formula. At least it's a little better than the other ones on the streamer. Whenever the camera is off Ryan the show is pointless. None of the rest have any real charm. Like plastic assembly Line dolls.

Want Ryan back on Bravo who do reality better than Netflix.

I was hesitant to give this show a shot after losing brain cells from watching a few episodes of Selling Sunset, but I was pleasantly surprised. For a reality tv show to have a rating higher than 7 on IMDB, I figured that's a good sign that it's at least decent. And it is indeed a fun watch. Chloe is obnoxious at times, but there's a good mix of characters and personalities. I like that the show is mostly about real estate with a little bit of drama mixed in.

Good insight into Ryan running his brokerage and how he manages the different personalities of his agents. Feels mostly genuine. Disappointed this season was only 8 episodes.. could've easily watched 8 more.
