So what we have here is a number of social media 'stars' who for some strange reason think they are famous enough to claim A-list status just for posting random stuff on TikTok and somehow, someway, getting paid for it enough to rent two mansions in California. I can personally confirm they are not A-listers. An A-lister is someone you can recognize even if you don't follow their work that closely (you don't need to be the world's most ardent cinephile to know who, say, Meryl Streep or Leonardo DiCaprio are, as such, they're in the A-list), and I can confirm I didn't know any of the Hype House residents prior to watching this show to see if it really was as bad as everyone was making it out to be.
Well, it's that bad, and then some. It's an overly dramatic, yet boring beyond belief, look behind the curtain of the machinations of these wannabe celebrities to keep their numbers up and the lights on, and exactly what lines are they willing to cross to keep the Hype House up and running (a stunt wedding for YouTube views? Seriously, what the hell, Alex?), sprinkling all of it with the great divide between House founders Chase and Thomas. The former, at least, does sound like he could have a half-decent music career ahead of him if he just cut ties with this lot. But he's basically the only one with anything resembling actual talent in here.
Seriously, don't bother. You're better off forcing Netflix to cancel Hype House by ignoring the daylights out of this thing.
