Fans of Summer House are reacting to the season 7 trailer, and some are not excited about what they have witnessed. The trailer for the upcoming season of Summer House dropped on January 12, and it teased so much drama as the housemates returned to the Hamptons for season 7. It also featured many messy fights, including the disintegration of the relationship between long-time besties Lindsay Hubbard and Danielle Olivera. However, fans have since had a mixed reaction to the trailer. A good section of the viewers are not so impressed with the series’ new direction, and they recently took to Reddit to vent their frustrations.
While commenting on a thread, the fans expressed disappointment with how far the show had strayed from the original storyline. Many viewers noted that the series originally featured a group of hardworking cast members who worked 9-5s and partied during the weekends. However, most housemates have since ditched their jobs to become social media influencers.
Some Summer House Fans Feel the Series Needs a Cast Overhaul for Season 7
As the conversation progressed on the thread, many fans highlighted how the show’s success stood on the foundation of genuine friendships and history. However, all that seems to be out the window with the introduction of new storylines that promote disunity and broken relationships. Many commenters agreed that the show lost the plot by introducing newbie influencers who they believe got specifically cast to push certain storylines.
The general feeling from the thread was that the series must return to the drawing board and bring back what made it thrive in the beginning. One distinct commenter suggested bringing back “true working professionals” who had to be back in the city on Monday morning.
Fans Do Not Find Lindsay and Danielle’s Relationship Breakdown Entertaining
Many fans of Summer House had their say about the perceived disunity amongst the show’s cast members. However, the viewers especially showed their displeasure about the messy ending to the long-time friendship between Lindsay and Danielle. A Reddit user u/artandmimosas noted:
“I watched the SH trailer today and was sad to see a glimpse of how Danielle and Lindsay’s friendship ends. You could tell their friendship wasn’t just for the cameras, so it saddens me to see the other girls on the show just relishing the friendship’s demise.
Although there had been signs all was not well with the two for some time, the manner of their fallout was appalling to watch for most of their fans. Most of the users agreed that nothing was entertaining about watching the collapse of genuine friendships. While commenting, one user wrote:
“It’s actually very sad that it seems like genuine friendships have broken up because the show keeps going on. I really wish they could bring in another group of young twenty-somethings to start fresh/new.”
Fans Feel the Series Needs New Interesting Storylines
Another contentious point on the thread was how the show’s producers try to force a particular storyline by introducing new cast members. The fans revealed their disapproval of the selection process of the new housemates and highlighted it as one of the major reasons the series has lost most of its substance over the years. Thankfully, it was not all criticism from the fans as many of them left some advice for whoever cared to listen in the production room — overhaul the cast with fresh faces and introduce new intriguing storylines.
