15 Shows That Are Basically Lifestyle Porn

For five seasons (and counting), Selling Sunset has been a solid performer for Netflix, evolving from a reality show ostensibly about the high-power, high-profit world of big-money real estate in Los Angeles to a veritable meme factory filled with pretty people fighting over nothing in particular and occasionally selling mansions. It’s already inspired a Tampa-based spin-off, and Netflix recently dropped a trailer for the latest iteration: Selling the O.C.

For the uninitiated, it’s easy to get sniffy about this type of reality TV, but even high-brow prestige drama television shows typically go to great lengths (and spend an awful lot of money) to show us pretty people in lavish settings: Downton Abbey, Succession, The Good Fight, Anatomy of a Scandal, Hacks, etc. We’ll doubtless be better off as a species when we can muster up as much interest in poor people...but here we are.

So we’re gathered here today not to eat the rich, but to look at their stuff. Here are 15 shows, scripted and otherwise, that represent the best (?) lifestyle porn on TV.
