    This show was a lot funnier earlier on, but still worth watching these days. Iranians are a diverse bunch and some don't act like this at all, would take offense to being compared to Reza and MJ. However, there are some Persian-Americans that do party, drink, travel, gossip, and just want to have a good time like the Shahs of Sunset. The more the show goes on, the crazier the antics but take it all with a grain of salt. Persians are very social, happy people but this show seldom focuses in on that, it just displays the trashy behavior of some rather unhinged characters that are only a fraction of the Persian-American population.

    Beyond scandal, this show teeters across a thin pleat bookended by chasms opprobrium. Jaw-dropping is an understatement. Heartache and pain are seamlessly link merged with fun romps and sidesplitting laughter. Juicy moments of tantrums are quickly squelched by deep sensitivity. Ah well...haters will hate. Arguing and verbal sparring are the fundamental foundations of successful reconciliation and a fruitful partnership. One of the best out there. Sure feelings are kicked around like unsuspecting seagulls...its the nature of the beast. Farm animals are not on this show, too bad. This is my kind of program. Most of the show is formulaic...just like the rest of 'Reality TV...so you're fired. Give me a break and shower these folks with countless EMMYs. They may not deserve them, but neither do I and I want one. Go forth and watch this program. If you like it, then you win...if you don't, 'HA' you should have not read this review. This show is only for the serious art lover. Like "The Birdman", only us narcissistic sycophants will blossom in its sunshine. There are not many people fishing on this show either...ah well. Enjoy

    I am addicted to this show. It is an interesting look into a culture that is private and hidden from a white man like me. I've dealt with Persians in my career and they are always motivated and intelligent people, but Shah's of Sunset Persians are f___ing over the top crazy. I hope their behavior is overly dramatized because they have cameras in their faces, because there are some serious personal problems on parade here. Aside from that this is a fresh concept and non-stop action that comes across as genuine. As another review wrote, its is a train wreck, and we all like to watch train wrecks, right?Looking forward to Season 3 - if it happens.

    This show is not a positive look on the Persian Americans in Los Angeles, California. They fled persecution, wars, and death in Iran to settle in Beverly Hills. Many of the cast mates are friends from Beverly Hills High School. Let's fact it, they're not normal in the first place. While I can only imagine the possible outrage from this show's existence, I find it interesting that Ryan Seacrest is in charge of production. Usually it's soul-less Andy Cohen but not this time. Hopefully unlike Cohen, Seacrest doesn't have painful reunion shows to watch. Anyway, the three women and three men have a balance. Reza is a Persian American homosexual real estate agent and his office mate and best friend is MJ, a Persian American woman. Asa is a Persian American woman and an artist who is probably my favorite. She's more concerned about her art rather than the others' opinions. Sammy and Mike are both Persian American and Jewish men in the show. Both men are interested in women not Persian nor Jewish. While this show is an interesting look into another culture and often a foreign land which is Los Angeles, the show does try to explain Persians who are really Iranians but they don't go by that. Anyway, this show has some moments but I'll watch this train wreck. It's not as bad as the housewives shows.
