Selling the OC Review Contains Some Spoilers

In the Netflix reality show Selling the OC, the Oppenheim Group and their team of skilled real estate agents work to sell lavish properties in Orange County. Everyone wants to make a big sale and do their best. However, it’s a competitive field. So there are fights, disagreements and betrayals.

A few days ago, I saw Cosmic Love on Amazon Prime Video, and I thought there wouldn’t be anything worse than that reality show this month. Well, here comes Selling the OC on Netflix. The show brings together real estate agents who claim to be the best in the market. However, there are only a few times we see them working. Most of the time, they try to gang up against a person/people or bring each other down.

The top 2 worst characters on the reality show are Alex Hall and Kayle Carmona. It takes no time to understand that Alex Hall is hungry for attention, loves b*tching about people behind their back, gossiping, lying and manipulating. She thinks she’s the best in her work. Well, she might be good at her job. But that doesn’t give her the right to humiliate and mistreat others.

Alex can’t keep secrets, needs to make everything about herself and loves trash-talking. She’s the biggest bully in the show. Another ridiculous personality is Kayle Carmona. In the beginning, I didn’t have issues with Kayle. But when he tries to kiss a married man and gets mad at others for feeling uncomfortable and discussing it behind her back, it made me lose my mind.

Just when I thought I had seen the worst, the man who she tried to kiss apologised to her. Why? Because he discussed it behind her back. I wonder if the people in the show and the makers know that forcing a kiss on someone is an act of sexual assault. But Kayle has to cry and act like she is the victim. It doesn’t matter if she was drunk. Which era is this that people are using alcohol as an excuse for their inappropriate behaviour?

Before I come to the third worst character in the show, let me tell you that the show takes a Love is Blind and Bigg Boss-like twist. People are partying on the beach, stripping, gossiping, and fighting. I wonder if Netflix spends money on these lavish beach and house parties only to add fight sequences! Otherwise, what’s the selling point for such bizarre shows? It also made me wonder if all of this is scripted.

Alex and her gang constantly try to bully and corner Alexandra Jarvis and Alexandra Rose. They even have the audacity to call both the ladies bullies and accuse them of instigating fights. Jarvis and Rose are no saints either. Even they sit and gossip among themselves. But at least they are loyal to each other, didn’t cause any fights, or were not being fake while claiming to be someone’s friends.

The Alexandras called out Alex Hall and Polly Brindle for trying to flirt with the same married man Kayle tried to kiss. However, the man in the picture seems to have no problem with what Hall and Brindle did. He instead slams both the Alexandras and calls them bullies. As expected, Kayle cries and acts like a victim.

The show gets absurd and stupid with every episode. People in groups are dramatic, and there is always one big bully who will manipulate others into doing things their way. Hall is that big bully here. Now coming to the third worst person in the show – Polly Brindle. All Polly can do is shout and use abusive language when someone tries to put sense in her head. As someone rightly said – Empty vessels make the most noise.

I don’t know what the purpose of Selling the OC show was. But it does teach us something – how not to be a trashy, horrible and ill-mannered person. The men in the show were merely used as eye candy. The series focused more on catfights because how will they dramatise and spice up things if women aren’t fighting, crying or yelling?

Netflix’s Selling the OC Review: Final Thoughts

Overall, the show is a waste of time if you think you will learn something about the real estate world. We are instead introduced to uncivilised wealthy people who are rude, torment others, sl*tshame other women and act disrespectfully. The only bearable part was the luxurious housing properties by the beautiful beach.

Selling the OC is now streaming on Netflix.
