It seems like Netflix really has people talking lately, and for a few good reasons. The media empire is releasing tons of new content, with January's lineup promising to entertain and entice. And one of the most talked-about shows is the upcoming 'Bling Empire.'
What can fans expect from the new title, and just how entertaining is it likely to be? Let's discuss.
First of all, Netflix's official description of the series is the place to start. The streaming service explains that the show will follow "wildly wealthy" Asian Americans living in Los Angeles.
It's a reality series, but fans know what that means — there are likely to be plenty of dramatic yet scripted moments. But the show promises that the stars will go "all out with fabulous parties, glamour and drama."
But apart from that, Netflix isn't revealing anything. There's no cast or crew listed yet on IMDb, and fans have absolutely no clue who to expect on the series. From the looks of it, the faces of the show are anonymous for now, and who knows whether the people in the show's ads are even cast members.
Besides the lack of info on their official pages, Netflix hasn't released any spoilers yet, either. However, the folks at Binged have some ideas.
Basically, they suggest that the new show will be a cross between 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' and the romantic comedy 'Crazy Rich Asians.' One fan even claimed on Reddit that this new series is based loosely on the movie, and has been in the works ever since the book came out.
Since it's a reality show, Binged posits, there may be some staged drama and scripted moments. But the show will be unique because it won't follow the traditional storyline of Asian American immigrants who work their way out of poverty.
Instead, viewers can assume, the series will run parallel to the Kardashians' California living, with everything from expensive cars to high-profile parties. At the same time, the cast isn't rumored to be one specific family or group of people.
Rather, fans can expect that the series will follow unrelated Asian American cast members who are wealthy due to a variety of circumstances (whether they're self-made or inherited some kind of empire).
Of course, some fans have their own theories about the trajectory of the show. Redditors suggest that the show has been in the works for some time and that one of the co-producers is also a main character on the series. Another Redditor suggested that they saw Kevin Kreider in one of the show's trailers.
At this point, there's no telling what could happen on the show, or who will wind up as part of the cast. Fans will just have to wait on pins and needles until the January 15th drop date for 'Bling Empire'!
