Owning Manhattan

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.

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.

I'm writing this review after finishing the 5th episodes and won't watch more.

Living in New York City and being an architect, I was super excited about the release of this show and it was even in my calendar. But what a disappointment!

Why all US real estate shows always focus about the dramas inside their office (are they even real?!!) instead of the actual real estates? We want to see houses, apartments, real estates!! But the show focus unfortunately on the bad energies and egos within their office. What a shame for Ryan.

As a note to Jonathan, I wouldn't be so arrogant and a bully to juniors when you don't even know the sun sets on the west 😂 seems to be a basic thing any human know as a kid! Sun rises in the east and sets on the west, working or not in this industry.

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.

This show is like taking a trip to the capital city of the hunger games movie series. I do appreciate the nice apartments they show, however the people are unbearable. No wonder when traveling the rest of the world hates Americans hahaha. Not to mention, money hungry realtors who provide essentially nothing besides woo girl vibes and a stiff fee. The people are very narcissistic and annoying. That being said there appears to be a few normal people on the show. Lovely apartments. I've always wanted to visit New York after watching so many tv series from there (how I met your mother, Seinfeld, whatever) This show has the opposite effect.
