TV shows focusing on the wealthy have become a genre in themselves, with an increasing number of series fixating on opulence and luxury without meaningful storylines.
While some shows like Succession use wealth to convey messages effectively, others have strayed into superficial displays of affluence, lacking substance.
The trend of showcasing excessive wealth in TV shows has led to a saturation of content that fails to engage audiences beyond showcasing lavish lifestyles.
Critics argue that excessive focus on wealth in TV shows results in a lack of relatability and substance, making the portrayal of affluent characters unappealing.
