Despite the uncertainty surrounding the new Summer House spin-off, it is important to highlight that the series has already introduced two successful spin-off shows. The first spin-off, Winter House, with two seasons, and a recent spin-off titled Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard

Detail on Summer House’s two spin-off series

Bravo premiered the highly anticipated first spin-off of Summer House, titled Winter House, on October 20, 2021. The series featured a captivating cast, including familiar faces such as Kyle Cooke, Amanda Batula, Paige DeSorbo, Craig Conover, and many others.

Winter House revolves around a group of friends who come together to spend a portion of the winter in one house. Unlike the typical arrangement where the cast visits the house on weekends, this spin-off took a different approach. The cast members lived, worked, and engaged in various activities together for six weeks, adhering to pandemic protocols.

According to Bravo, the cast members spent 17 days living together in a single house in Stowe, Vermont. The cast members of the series appear to have thoroughly enjoyed their time filming. One of the cast members, Kyle Cooke, shared his though on Twitter stating, “To be honest, every day played like a Saturday. #FullSendMode 17 days straight.”

After more than a year since the release of the first Summer House spin-off, Bravo premiered the second spin-off of the series, titled Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard, on May 7, 2023.

Alexa Demie to Reprise Her ‘Euphoria’ Role in Sam Levinson’s ‘The Idol’

After much controversy and talk about The Idol, its first two episodes finally premiered at the 76th Cannes Film Festival on May 22, 2023.

Directed by Sam Levinson, The Idol follows Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp), an aspiring pop idol who wishes to reclaim her fame. After having a nervous breakdown that caused her last tour to be canceled, she resolves to reclaim her title as America’s sexiest pop star.

As a result, she begins a complicated relationship with Tedros (Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye), a self-help guru and the leader of a contemporary cult. Much information about the show was revealed after the premiere.

One of them is Alexa Demie making a cameo on the show by reprising her role as Maddy Perez from Euphoria.

Levinson is the mastermind behind Euphoria since he created and wrote the series. Euphoria follows a group of teens in the fictional town of East Highland, California, as they search for optimism while dealing with the stresses of love, grief, and addiction. 

Some of the issues discussed on Euphoria are the same as that of The Idol like drug abuse, social media, toxic relationships, drug dealing, codependency, toxic positivity, rape, sexual assault, hookup culture, and dating violence, among others.

Therefore, it is not a surprise that Levinson wants to create his own universe like that of Marvel and DC. After it was confirmed that Demie’s character, Perez, would appear on the show, Levinson revealed that Euphoria and The Idol happen in the same universe.

Demie appears in The Idol as a woman at the club where Jocelyn and Tedros first meet. Despite the fact that she plays a minor role in the plot, it will be a memorable throwback for Euphoria fans who may be watching this series anticipating something similar. 

Unfortunately, not much information regarding her cameo or the role her character plays in the tale has been provided. She may return in the later half of the program, but viewers must wait until the season premieres to find out.

Demie plays the role of Perez in Euphoria and likely The Idol. She is recognized for her outspoken and confident demeanor, and she is generally considered self-assured and fearless to express herself.

Perez is said to have a strong sense of style and is frequently spotted wearing beautiful and bold clothing. She has a complicated and turbulent relationship with her boyfriend, Nate Jacobs (Jacob Elordi), who is also a significant character in the series. 

Their relationship has ups and downs, including episodes of manipulation, deception, and violence. Despite their difficulties, Perez stays emotionally involved in their relationship.

Perez is shown as a devoted friend who is frequently seen supporting her small group of friends, particularly the main character, Rue Bennett (Zendaya). She is also renowned for her fiery attitude and often combative demeanor.

Overall, Perez, a character of enormous depth in the highly acclaimed television series, emerges as a fascinating combination of confidence and vulnerability. She is portrayed with complexity and depth and captivates spectators with her bold approach, unusual style, and turbulent relationships. 

The reviews of ‘The Idol’

Ever since its premiere, The Idol is receiving negative reviews, to say the least. Before the premiere, Rolling Stone ran an expose on the series in March 2023.

According to the article, the initial tone and subject of the screenplay had altered, and instead of being focused on a woman’s quest to restore her own agency, it had allegedly devolved into a demeaning narrative bordering on torture porn. 

Moreover, there were some really troublesome occurrences on-site. However, The Weeknd and Depp defended the show and Levinson.

Levinson was also criticized for his view. Many complained that he oversexualizes and victimizes the female characters in his shows —  as evident in Euphoria.

Regardless, people were giving it the benefit of the doubt. But now, after the premiere of two episodes, the critics are being brutally honest about the show.

Critics are not happy with the presentation of the show, claiming that it is extremely sexualized. They noted that The Idol supports male fantasy which degrades women.

The series has also been called misogynistic and predatory in nature. Initially, The Idol debuted with 20% on Tomatometer of Rotten Tomatoes.

But at the time of writing, it has 9% on Tomatometer with 11 reviews. The critics’ consensus reads, “Every bit as florid and sleazy as the industry it seeks to satirize, The Idol places itself on a pedestal with unbridled style but wilts under the spotlight.”

Looking at the decrease in Tomatometer, it won’t be a surprise if it decreases more from 9% after more reviews come in.

The Joe Rogan Experience Dethroned by The Meer Show as Number One Podcast on Spotify

Joe Rogan launched his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, on December 24, 2009, on YouTube.

In a matter of a couple of years, it became one of the most popular podcasts in the world with guests such as Bernie Sanders, Elon Musk, Edward Snowden, and  Neil deGrasse Tyson appearing on the show. Rogan uploaded his podcast on YouTube for over a decade.

However, in December 2020, he exclusively signed with Spotify. Since then, his full episodes are only available on Spotify and highlights are uploaded on YouTube.

The Joe Rogan Experience has been the number-one podcast on Spotify ever since it was signed exclusively on the platform. However, it was recently dethroned by The Meer Show.

‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ dethroned by ‘The Meer Show’

On May 18, 2023, The Joe Rogan Experience was dethroned from its position as the top podcast on Spotify. Instead, a brand-new podcast named The Meer Show took its spot.

To date, only one episode of  20 minutes in length has been released and yet, it has managed to take the top position. However, such is only the case on Spotify. On Apple Podcast, they have reached 28th position in the UK Charts.

The Meer Show is a new podcast from the UK from TikTok influencers, Meer Jangi, Grace, and Bailey. Talking about dethroning The Joe Rogan Experience, they told Dextero how they have been trending for the past four weeks, “gaining up to 25k viewers on our lives at once.”

While The Meer Show has dethroned The Joe Rogan Experience, it is unknown when they will be able to hold the #1 spot on Spotify.

Instances of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ being dethroned

This is not the first time The Joe Rogan Experience has been dethroned. In April 2023, TWOTIThis Week on the Internet – hosted by YouTuber WillNE, took the #1 spot on the UK charts.
