It's A Train Wreck!

Sylviastel

This show is not a positive look on the Persian Americans in Los Angeles, California. They fled persecution, wars, and death in Iran to settle in Beverly Hills. Many of the cast mates are friends from Beverly Hills High School. Let's fact it, they're not normal in the first place. While I can only imagine the possible outrage from this show's existence, I find it interesting that Ryan Seacrest is in charge of production. Usually it's soul-less Andy Cohen but not this time. Hopefully unlike Cohen, Seacrest doesn't have painful reunion shows to watch. Anyway, the three women and three men have a balance. Reza is a Persian American homosexual real estate agent and his office mate and best friend is MJ, a Persian American woman. Asa is a Persian American woman and an artist who is probably my favorite. She's more concerned about her art rather than the others' opinions. Sammy and Mike are both Persian American and Jewish men in the show. Both men are interested in women not Persian nor Jewish. While this show is an interesting look into another culture and often a foreign land which is Los Angeles, the show does try to explain Persians who are really Iranians but they don't go by that. Anyway, this show has some moments but I'll watch this train wreck. It's not as bad as the housewives shows.

score 3/10
