    Given the success of “Selling Sunset” and “Selling The O.C.,” it was only a matter of time before the franchise spun off all the way to New York City. Enter “Selling The City.” The newest real estate mogul reality show centers on an all-women team of Douglas Elliman agents in New York City, lead by super-agent Eleanora Srugo.

    It’s hard to tell exactly where the show’s emotional core lies, and the plot is not as propulsive as “Selling Sunset’s” was in those first few seasons. However, the show is at its most gripping when we are seeing the most stunning real estate that New York has to offer — so much more variety than in Los Angeles! — and when the women on the show are having surprisingly real and candid conversations about being in their 30s and 40s and figuring out how to make big life decisions about family planning, partnership and career. These moments of relatable humanity give us hope that “Selling The City” can really hit its stride if it gets a second season. (Fingers crossed!) In this episode, we discuss what works about the show’s premiere episodes and what doesn’t, and we discuss how it stacks up with the other shows in the “Selling” franchise.
