Byron Baes (2022)
7/10
Unfair reviews
6 April 2022
To be fair, the show in eight episodes showed more range in personality perspective than something like the kardashians. It seems like the critics are more enraged at the privilege the cast exudes more than anything. There should be a "how woke are you" meter when writing a review on a reality tv show.

The show is about a downtown girl, and flamboyant influencer guy, moving to the somewhat suburbs. Something like a cross between the Hamptons meets Napa wine country meets Santa Barbara.

Naturally, the gay befriends all the girls, who were quick to band into a mean girl coalition against the new girl. This has always occurred in the wild so it should not come as a surprise that this is what happened in the show.

What I really liked about the show is that the tables were turned at the end on the Regina George character. I think that the show was heavier on the romance and less about the entrepreneurial element that they were trying to convey in the beginning. But then again "baes". Otherwise it was a good binge on my books and it made me interested in learning more about the GC and Byron culture. May go visit one day!

I'm from San Francisco so the hippie vibe was straight up my ally.
