Bling Empire sells itself as being a real-life Crazy Rich Asians, and at first, it appears to be another one of those reality shows that chronicles the lives of the idle rich. But where it really gets interesting over the course of its eight episodes is when it turns out to be an exploration of identity for a few of the main cast members.

Bling Empire mostly follows the tried-and-true reality formula, but with just enough new wrinkles to get fans of that genre excited to binge its first season in one or two sittings.

[Anna Shay's] a fun one to watch and, easily, a forgiving friend. The others don’t get the same pass. ... It’s one more reality show that gives rich people a chance to build brands and foster careers without having to do any heavy lifting. It’s an escape. But without Anna, it’s not an escape we’d want to take.
