No one in the Hype House seems to really want to be there, and very few of them even seem to want to be on TikTok. I spent the whole show wanting to hit them on the head and demand they take some time off, or try and get different jobs. With Warren stressed about earning enough to financially support his family, and Kouvr just wanting normalcy, the pair seem miserable. But Annon expresses frustrations with the blurring of their business and romantic relationship. Warren, noticing his social media stardom dimming increasingly, wants to perform big, flashy stunts for attention. Similarly frustrating, the other major plot follows Alex Warren and girlfriend Kouvr Annon. His mediocre music never seems to justify his vision of himself as a great rockstar, and his refusal to just film one TikTok ad to pay for his sprawling mansion, mind boggling. While the social media response seems to have squarely labeled Petrou as the villain, it is impossible to watch the show as an adult and not feel endlessly frustrated with Hudson.
But wanting to ‘break out’ of his eboy TikTok person, Hudson no longer wanted to make his ads, angering Petrou. After Hudson wanted to build a rock music career, he moved from the Hype House to ‘Hype House LA’, a second mansion that, like the Hype House, was rented with the profits from sponsored Tiktoks the group filmed. The main drama of the show comes from the tension between influencers Thomas Petrou and Cole Chase Hudson, popularly known as Lil Huddy. In its eight episodes, the show attempts to explain the house’s continued existence.
