The Scholar Who Walks the Night Episode 3

Speed reading powers: Yes please! This who: NO.

After struggling and starting up this episode 7 times I finally completed it. Clearly I've come to that point where even my will power to always at least give a drama 4 episodes has reached it's breaking point.

The allure of even Lee Joon Gi and Lee Joon Gi in all their hot vampire-sexy-glory can't keep me. I really-really-really wanted to drool over them dang it! Especially since they're both in a freaking drama together! It's like this ultimate sexy smash up and I can't even enjoy it! No really how often are actors on this caliber of hotness together? Not often. I know everyone talks about the perfect couples being cast all the time. For me this was the perfect male hotties being cast. ;_;

I just can't stick through.

The reality is that Scholar Who Walks the Night is a mash up of all kinds of dramas and I can already see how it borrows bits and pieces. The whole idea of this evil sexy vampire controlling the kings and thus the kingdom is awesome. The struggle for the future monarchs to free themselves is great. Yet I can clearly see where this drama is gonna get boring. Heck I'm already bored and the terrible righting isn't helping. Maybe I'd push through if it was 16 episodes or less. But no. They brought in another writer to even help clean it up at episode 10! That does not bode well.

*Just read some recaps. Yeah, no loss. That secret weapon crap. Ugh, I'm out.*

In the end this drama suffers from horrible writing. I gladly toss this onto my Dropped Dramas pile. With pride.
