L'Empire du bling: New York

One of the worst reality tv shows I've seen in my life. I love to occasionally shut my brain from my everyday rhythm with a bit of trashy brainless but entertaining reality tv, and appreciate a bit of extreme super rich decadence lifestyle and superficiality as long as it's aesthetically pleasing and fun. But this is nothing. They are not even good looking a part from Dorothea (the Mexican wife of hung) . They are not doing anything interesting or amazing or fun with their money. They basically don't add to anything on this planet. Dorothy is the most annoying, useless, brat of a human I've ever seen. She is ugly, spoiled, disrespectful, stupid and BORING, she adds no new value to the world in any way, she just exists as a child of a billionaire and is a useless, ugly, boring brat. Terrible people, even worst tv show.

Two episodes in and dont know if i can continuing on.

I am from Hong Kong and work in one of the six licensees in Macao casino business. Stephen Hung owns a hotel (The 13) in Macau but last I heard is its opening has been delayed due to financial problem, and the casino license wasn't secured. Anyways, he is a rather colouful character and he has a pink (with Deborah as the plate) and yellow rolls royce parked outside his office.

Never heard of Tina Leung, the rest of the cast are all boring characters, but i am expecting it so no surprise, the most annoying of the bunch is Dorothy Wang, she is loud, obnoxious, rude and even under tons of make up still looks ugly and honestly, she needs to lose some meat, she is always hungry lol, no amount of designer clothes will make you look good if you are fat and short. Lynn's makeup is so 60s, her dress style horrible and here i thought they are supposed to be fashion forward.

It is a pity with all their money, they could have done something significant or contribute to the betterment of the society, instead they just wasting their life away, the thai princess was so aghast that she needs to work to earn money. Their parents are to blame.

Overall, if there is no better show to watch, this can be entertaining, just dont take the show too seriously.

Yes it's about out of touch rich people.... But it's far worse than I expected. Ridiculous and vapid. It is nauseating and disgusting pathetic with a dash of narcissism. If only these incredibly wealthy individuals added something to society rather than being self important snobs with no understanding of reality. In this day and age with such a huge gap between the haves and the have nots... if I was struggling to make ends meet this would be not only ridiculous and anti-intellectual, but also infuriating. Stop giving this %*#^ a platform. I'd be far more interested in a show that makes these people work a job and see how they do.

Very boring cast except Dorothy. Why we even watch Jett? Obvious that he is in for getting in the 'ride' ... which is whatever, but it's not on this platform please. It's supposed to be about Asian people. Very annoyed when he starts being interviewed.

Vika's partner? Casting is wrong. Dorothy is on point about him just basically using people, and he shouldn't be on the casts because this is about rich, shallow, self centered, racist (only Asian can be in my group) people. This guy is self centered, but everything else screams 'trying too hard' and not real. Which is the complete opposite of this show's vibe.

Tina is sad, a bit bipolar and definitely not ready for this. Obviously depressed and need help. Not Dorothy's help. But professional. Which is not common for Asians. Actually, that should be her story line maybe...anyway, at this point, she is Not interesting enough, to put it nicely.

I write a review mostly because I like a show. This time I wrote hoping so that the casts are changed for the next season...

Richard: "she's mixed of this and that... I want her to see the world the way I see it."

Nobody will blame you if you thought he's talking about a dog breed and not his girlfriend. His narcissism and masculine aggression can easily be wrapped up in his opening lines.

Dorothy may have a typical mean, demanding rich girl's attitude, but she does have valid points sometimes. But if she doesn't want to be confined to her wealth, and don't trust most people, maybe just maybe, hang out with people who are less $$$-minded? But she's too deeply ingrained in that bling I think.

Jett: "are you gay"? Snowflake... masculine. Gosh, how many more conservative boomer stereotypes can be jammed into one person?

Tina: perhaps the most relatable person for people who don't belong to bling. She's the type that, while halfway through ridiculous rich people debauchery realizes that something bad has gone down and flags it

Blake: sigh, find better friends

Lynn: yea, your kid's grown up, spread your wings like you've always wanted. Don't let your jealous spouse clip your wings.

Nam: no comments

Hungs: wax museum characters... came to life? But like not actually alive...
