I Think I Just Threw Up in My Mouth

Normally on Fridays, I like to look for little diversions to post here on re:PDX. And I certainly found one today, but it was a nausea-inducer for me. Welcome to the second season of Bravo TV’s Million Dollar Listing.

Million Dollar Listing promo

“You’ve got to make enemies to make money.” Yeah, that’s my new catch phrase.

Josh vs. Chad promo.

From the New York Times:

Season 2 revolves instead around three agents: Chad Rogers, Josh Flagg and the lone holdover from Season 1, Madison Hildebrand. None of them are over 30, and all are as focused on landing the next deal as they are with themselves. Mr. Rogers spends an inordinate amount of time on his hair and is given to making statements like, “I have a gorgeous girlfriend because image is everything in real estate.”

Apparently, one of the ’stars’ is under suspicion of thieving expensive artwork from one of his listings. I hate it when that happens.

I haven’t seen an episode myself, but I know that this show will be viewed as a ‘guilty pleasure’ for some. Like watching Springer or COPS. I wonder how this plays with NAR’s goal of raising popularity ratings of REALTORS to levels above used car salesmen and telemarketers.

Anyway, if you’ll excuse me, apparently I need to go work on my hair.
