One Ocean View (ABC) Reviewed

This article is part of the meta-post Dreams defined or how New Orleans will be put under the microscope. This article reviews the new reality TV show on ABC called One Ocean View.

This is a new reality series on ABC. It resembles MTV’s The Real World. Though the housemates don’t live together at all times, it follows the lives of a few singles living together on weekends and during the summer whilst pursuing their careers.

 

There is nothing spectacular about this series, except that it’s in New York. The cast is an eclectic group of professionals. Most disturbing are Lauren and Zack, who used to go out but don’t anymore, though they still have a physical relationship. Lauren seems to enjoy to torture Zack by going out on dates and flirting with men in front of Zack, whilst returning to him during the nights. It is a very disturbing relationship. Usman is funny in how vain he is. He thinks that he is God’s gift to women and shamelessly tries to flirt and pick-up all interesting women.

There is already conflict and romance brewing in the house. We will see how this show will do in the coming weeks.
