Netflix has been branded by some critics as the “most hateable show ever”.Buying London is inspired by the US hit series Selling Sunset, and it follows a group of estate agents who sell expensive properties in the capital, led by property mogul Daniel Daggers.The show was released on the streaming platform this week (May 22), but the early reviews have been less than flattering.The Guardian posted a zero-star review, describing the show as “probably the most hateable TV show ever made”.“I hate that it bases all of its dramatic tension on pitting women against each other,” the review continued. “I hate that it makes Richard Curtis’s film Notting Hill look like a gritty documentary about the mean streets of London.
I hate its England-for-dummies shtick that is clearly pitched at an international market. I hate its reverence for billionaires and bad taste, its celebrity name-dropping without actual celebrities, even the lurching drone footage that seems to have been shot by the Red Arrows.”The negativity did not deter Netflix; on the contrary, they chose to embrace the scathing headlines as a promotional tool.In a post on X yesterday (May 22), the streamer displayed the zero-star rating loud and proud over an image of the show’s stars, writing: “Probably the most hateable TV show ever made.
