What's the Story?
DASH DOLLS is a reality series starring some of the employees of the Kardashian sisters' Los Angeles-based DASH store. Khloe Kardashian's best friend Malika Hagg, and her twin sister Khadijah Hagg-McCray, are responsible for working with the store's high-end clients, as well as managing the Dash Dolls -- the young women who are working in the store. Among their charges is Nazy, the store's assistant, Durrani, the merchandising manager, and Stephanie, the resident stylist. They also manage sales staff like Caroline and Taylor. While the "dolls" work hard during the day and wreak havoc in the house they share with each other at night, Malika and Khadijah are trying to restart their acting career.
Is It Any Good?
The unscripted series offers few original storylines thanks to its reliance on typical reality formulas while highlighting the Kardashian brand. However, it manages to expand the relationship drama to include sibling rivalry, inconsiderate roommates, and some very troubled romantic entanglements. Thanks to the endless, drinking, branding, and sexual innuendo, it's hard to take any of it seriously.
The show's focus is mainly on specific members of the store's staff, but Kardashian fans will be pleased by the sisters' frequent appearances throughout the season. Some folks may enjoy the antics between the "dolls," too. It's all pretty shallow, but if you're looking for some mindless guilty pleasure, this one will certainly fit the bill.
