I know what you’re thinking: Australia doesn’t need another reality TV show. But just hear us out…

The one thing the Australian reality TV landscape has been lacking is a juicy, sordid, dramatic show following hot people doing hot things while trying to “make it” in the big, wide world — whatever that means. Think The Hills. Think Vanderpump Rules. Australia has never been able to quite capture the magic of Lisa Vanderpump’s bartenders taking on West Hollywood… until now.

Netflix has dropped the trailer for Byron Baes, and it looks exactly like you’d expect: beautiful people, in a beautiful location, having beautiful fights… sign us TF up.

You may recognise some faces in the cast: like Nathan Favro of The Bachelorette and Bachelor In Paradise fame, Love Island star Elias Chigros, singer-songwriter St James, and there are some classic Byron types thrown in too. And yes, the promo shows crystals.

“The show is authentic and honest, and while it carries all the classic hallmarks of the form and embraces the drama, heartbreak and conflict that makes for such entertaining viewing,” Netflix ANZ’s Director of Content Que Minh Luu said when the show was first announced.

Byron Baes drops on Netflix on 9 March.
