There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

A group of Persian refugees fleeing the Iranian Revolution of 1979 arrive in California and embrace or define the American Dream. They drink their faces off, have petty squabbles, cover themselves in jewels and gold, have extensive plastic surgery and the totally mad and open gay guy, must be the envy of every gay person in Iran; I think they kill people there, but if I'm wrong, I know they don't accept a gay lifestyle. This is the best way for America to overthrow Iran; show how much fun it is to be Western and free.I only see this series when traveling and in hotels or motels with cable and always look forward to seeing their antics. I'm not clear on where their money comes from
as they don't seem to work, so I presume they were fortunate enough to load up their coffers before fleeing Iran. I don't think this show costs a lot to produce ---perhaps that's where their money is from?---- so I suspect it will have a long run and we'll be blessed to watch the cast grow old and die over the coming years. Having lived 20 + years in southern California, I can see this format being adapted to a wide range of transplants that make America so culturally diverse; Israeli's of Fairfax, Russian Oligarchs of Rodeo Drive, Chinese of Monterrey Park, Japanese of Palos Verdes, Koreans of Cypress, MS-13 of MacArthur Park....it's endless, but it will take a lot to top the Shahs of Sunset

Watching an episode, I just had the misfortune of seeing Asa trying to sell "Diamond Water" to a businessman/promoter using real diamonds in the water!. The look on his face said it all, and I didn't think he was taking her seriously. She kept insisting on the idea however, firmly believing that is was a great idea, adding real diamonds with water to create a pure water and "Infusing the water with positive energy just by being in the room with the water? What? Who does she think she is? Jesus? Real Diamonds are harmful/fatal to humans if swallowed you silly girl. I notice she now has a website trying to sell it for US$35.88 a liter! WTF?? Hopefully no one will be stupid enough to buy it unless they have a death wish. Surely there must be some watchdog in the USA that prevents this sort of thing from happening?Unbelievable that someone so intelligent (she graduated from UCLA with undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Philosophy), could be so stupid.

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 have just finished watching season 2 episode 4. Is this show for real? Are those people really like that? This season is without a doubt, worse than the first. How disappointing.I am incredibly grateful that I am not them, not any of them, not for any reason. I have a great amount of compassion for MJ, I hope GG goes to rehab asap - if this mess is, in fact reality and not fiction for the cameras. I would rather eat my own faeces, than watch another episode of this adult-child, tantrum-throwing, name-calling, money-grubbing, delusional, sleazy, vomit-inducing, disrespectful cast of self-important humans.This gets a -10 from me. Unless you're sadomasochistic, give it a miss.Again, -10.
