I was just considering watching this, in a "Mormonism freaks me out but this might be an entertaining trainwreck, and I DO like RHoSLC" kind of way, but then I looked at a promo video for the show and it was just 90% them doing the cringiest of tiktok dances. Ew, no thanks.

I have only watched the first two episodes but so far the show is focusing on the ~drama within the group. The cringey TikTok dances are only shown as silent clips during transitions between some scenes (watching them without music makes them even worse but in a funny way).

I was watching the promo without sound so that definitely didn't help, haha.

Do you think you'll keep watching? And would you recommend it to someone who can really only stomach Mormonism if it's on the level of Bravo's RHoSLC? I.e. mostly campy and generally through a critical lens.

It’s only 8 episodes so I will probably finish the season. So far it is like a typical reality show aka drama within a friend group so I’d say it’s comparable to a typical Real Housewives show with a younger cast. In the first episode alone, there was a recap of the swinger scandal, an unplanned pregnancy, an arrest, a member of the friend group who moved out of state (and seemed to have ghosted everyone when she left) returning unexpectedly, and a lot of shit talking ( ... )

There is probably enough drama to suck you in! And you never know when someone will pull a Monica.
