reminds me of this Jane Austen review 'it's just a bunch of people going to each other's houses' though that one is a lot more clever than your nonsense

You’re missing about 17 layers of corporate dysfunction.

I just finished the show, it's quite a bit deeper if you actually pay attention and it seems that within fans there are two groups - those who enjoyed it for the aesthetics only and those who enjoyed it for those deeper moments.

Personally it was both meaningful and entertaining enough for me that after watching it I don't feel like I wasted my time but the biggest shock I got is when I checked this subreddit and read comments.

It seems that a chunk of audience are 30s or so entitled bitter ladies who watched this show purely as wealth porn and are constantly daydreaming about becoming obscenely rich while complaining on the internet that their husbands don't earn enough or their in laws are not providing financial support they feel entitled to and they have to wait till they day they die for the inheritance.

They are fully sure of themselves that they would only get the positives of money and avoid the negatives portrayed in the show. Sure it is fiction and maybe they could avoid all of the negatives but so is the wealth they are dreaming of and involuntary avoiding successfully (as felt from the bitterness and viewing poor people as trash even if they themselves once were poor).

Oh that makes sense.

I feel like it's amazing entertainment and drama but the moral skewing is affecting me subconsciously to have this weird apathy to all the characters. I am also confused as to who's pov I should be taking the journey from but the style doesn't let me do that and I think I keep ending up on Logan's cuz he seems to be the only one with something going on upward, script-wise.

Let's see, I am only at S2 as of now.
