I need something glamorous to watch

I am in need of some escapism with everything being so depressing. I'm thinking something like Dallas, The OC, Riviera, Sex and the City, Big Little lies, Dirty John..... I've seen all of those so something along those lines. Basically the characters living in beautiful houses, wearing amazing clothes and looking fabulous. Is there anything I have missed?

Following! I feel like something like this too 🙂 I'm watching Suits on Netflix at the moment, mostly for the mancandy of the main lawyer, but all the programs you listed are right up my street.

Not quite as glam as your after but maybe try Little Fires everywhere (Prime), Marvellous Mrs Maisel, The Queens Gambit (Netflix), Offspring (Netflix)

Younger? By Darren Star.

It might only be on sky

Firefly Lane on Netflix?

Tryingtogetitright · 19/02/2021 22:14

Just coming on to say The Queens Gambit - gorgeous and very good too!

peachypetite · 19/02/2021 22:15

Mad men?

DaisyandIvy · 19/02/2021 22:15

Firefly Lane. 80s glamour-tastic.

MadisonMontgomery · 19/02/2021 22:16

If you like reality TV watch Selling Sunset on Netflix - very glam estate agents selling multimillion dollar houses in LA with usual reality tv drama involved!

Charley50 · 19/02/2021 22:16

Making a Murderer? (Not really).

Meredithgrey1 · 19/02/2021 22:16

The big house in firefly lane on netflix is absolutely gorgeous!

For a film, maybe a simple favour - almost everything Blake lively wears is beautiful.

SpringSunshineandTulips · 19/02/2021 22:17

Dynasty.

SpringSunshineandTulips · 19/02/2021 22:17

Gossip girl

Meredithgrey1 · 19/02/2021 22:17

Selling sunset for reality tv, or gossip girl for a more teen drama type thing?

lojojomo · 19/02/2021 22:18

Dix Pour Cent / Call My Agent on Netflix

Noell · 19/02/2021 22:45

I loved Selling Sunset and Queens Gambit on Netflix.

herecomesthsun · 19/02/2021 23:57

Have you seen Bridgerton?

Lots of wonderful dresses and drawing rooms.

I think that the point is you can imagine yourself as the heroine, being the star of the season and having to turn down a prince for the dishiest most dashing duke ever.

Total fantasy.

Yes it is on Sky! That looks good.

Some great options I'm going to have a look at them all.

And Firefly lane really want to watch.

Ugly Betty was brilliant for anyone else looking for ideas (I still miss it) and Desperate Housewives loved that too.

Revenge
The Affair
If reality TV ok- Selling Sunset and Million Dollar Beach House, the people are a bit silly and irritating but the houses are amazing!

Foghead · 20/02/2021 10:32

I liked Sweet Magnolias. Not high glamour but good entertainment.

ktjb39 · 20/02/2021 10:34

Selling sunset fits this bill perfectly!

lunapeace · 20/02/2021 10:35

Oh the Affair, loved it!!!!

I might try Selling Sunset.

I might try Selling Sunset.

I was a bit late to the party and only just wanted The Affair (didn’t have Sky before)- from the Brooklyn brownstone, the Monktauk beach houses and the LA mansion the houses were fab!

Succession, if you don’t mind the swearing. Lovely sweaters and gorgeous houses. And swearing.

Pimlicojo · 20/02/2021 10:39

I also came on to say Selling Sunset. And Emily in Paris.
