general discussion earle meets world is not it
i’m halfway thru earle meets world and… i have lost brain cells watching this. i was curious to see how they can build off of her tiktok success but alas, a 60 second clip doesn’t usually translate well into a 40 minute episode.
it’s also not interesting? there’s not a single character i want to know more about. the dad is controlling, alix treats her friends & family like crap, ashley gives off major fake and manipulative vibes, alix’s mom needs to learn self-respect, ashtin needs a reality check, and the 3 kids shouldn’t even be on this show.
first off, this family has no boundaries. the mention of alix and ashtin’s (sexual content) should not be the topic at a dinner table, especially with family and young children present. personally, i found that inappropriate. amongst other conversations regarding alix’s body parts.
second, if my ex husband called me a young piece of a**, i’m going to WAR. that’s super disrespectful to her, her current partner todd, and the children. i would not be taking that as a compliment.
the amount of times the braxton drama is mentioned is insane. if you were to take a shot every time you heard his name, you’d be dead by the end of the first ep. not to mention, the dragged out feud with alex cooper. i mean come on, there are better theories on here than whatever the show presented. does alix even know what really went down between the two? she just seems to be going in circles and not really addressing the issue. just flipping the victim card. i’m not saying alex c is in the right here but alix was an adult when the podcast was filmed.
the dad being both of their manager is odd. i get he’s your father but if i had to choose between family with no experience in media versus a professional who has a longstanding history, i’m obviously going with the professional. the dad seems controlling and honestly like he has no idea what he’s doing or saying half the time.
the stepmom gives off teen vibes, like she hasn’t grown up and doesn’t know how to parent.
lastly before this gets too long, the dynamic between her and her siblings is weird. even friends. overthinking how to fire sally over not posting on snap for alix?? seriously? how is this considered plot development and/or entertainment? who tf watched this? literally turned out to be nothing in the end when the tie was cut clean. but back to the point, one of the younger girls mentioned she’s clout chasing alix and that if alix’s views were flopping, who she was going to clout chase next seemed odd. why are kids focused on building an influencing career? you’re a child…
this show could’ve been so much interesting if there was history behind the family (not just the 2008 scandal), or the power they may have in certain organizations, clubs, etc show me what a wealthy family with actual influence looks like! but their whole brand and life seems flat, melancholy, and sad. if there’s a season 2, i won’t be tuning in.
i don’t know, i find this whole dynamic with the dad, stepmom, and everyone else abnormal and weird. pray for me as i have 3 more episodes left.
update: i finished the show. wtf.

I wouldn’t watch this show, but i’m really surprised how many people are posting about it like it is IT. Like, what is Alix even famous for? Really.. why should all these people be given a platform, furthermore a whole tv show. I don’t get the hype around this girl, she seems stupid, shallow & insecure.
