Shows like Rivals

If you're drawn to Rivals' blend of '80s ambition, media-world power plays, and the collision between professional ruthlessness and personal desire, you'd likely find similar satisfaction in The Hour or Billions—both track that same intoxicating mix of behind-the-scenes ego clashes and relationship friction under pressure. There's probably also value in The House of Eliott or The Buccaneers if you want the glamour and social climbing but prefer a slightly softer lens on ambition's personal costs. Gold Digger or Fifteen-Love might appeal if you're specifically interested in how Rivals uses intimate relationships to interrogate what self-interest really looks like stripped of pretense.
