Critic Reviews

“Oasis” plays out more like the latter show ["Elite"] than a prestigious, high-minded exploration of class dynamics and extreme wealth. The characters are thin and the plot often ludicrous, but the sight of beautiful people making bad decisions is soothing enough to override one’s critical faculties.

It’s not that Oasis is necessarily a bad show, but it seems like a formula we’ve seen a lot of, and the show doesn’t bring anything new to the table to make it even the tiniest bit distinct from other “rich people being awful” shows.
