Next Gen NYC continues its foray into the messy, martini-fueled world of young Manhattanites on Tuesday, June 10th at 9:00 PM ET with “What Happens in Brooklyn” . The series, which introduced viewers to a friend group raised in the glare of parental fame last week, now takes aim at an even more precarious landscape: rekindling old friendships and the minefield of Brooklyn nightlife.
This time around, the reality spotlight focuses on Ariana and Riley, two friends trying to jumpstart a connection that’s been dormant for a decade. The inevitable growing pains of friendship redux play out as the episode unspools, but it’s downtown, across the bridge, where things start to unravel.
What begins as a civilized night of cocktails takes a turn into pure chaos, sending Charlie spiraling into exasperation. Meanwhile, Brooks and Gia drop a breadcrumb trail about some impending relationship drama—the kind that looks set to spill over into next week.
The series has made it clear it’s not shying away from exploring the complicated emotions of young adults tackling life in the social media age. It might not be high art, but for viewers who enjoy their reality TV served with a shot of Manhattan-bred angst, Next Gen NYC might be the perfect pairing.
Next Gen NYC airs Tuesday, June 10th at 9:00 PM ET on Bravo.
