Bars and Twitter Handles: How to Make It in America

Along with creative director Jeremy Wolf, I wrote a more nuanced takedown of HtMIiA for Handlebar Magazine. The intro and link:


"UNEXPECTEDLY, How to Make It in America has jumped the shark in its second season—and by a good distance. The show, once a genuinely charming account of two young guys trying to bootstrap themselves up in the unforgiving New York City fashion scene, has digressed and devolved into a half-baked, small-scale Entourageknockoff. It’s a shame, really, because this was (and perhaps still is) a concept teeming with potential; it could have been a genuinely entertaining series about the blood, sweat, and tears poured out in putting together a small business. Instead, it’s become a show about the trappings surrounding success, and not the infinitely more interesting road taken to get there."
