Criando o Destino (2009)

This was my VERY FIRST drama. Now that I am going back to review it after a year has passed (yes, I am very new to dramas), my feelings towards it have changed (naturally .. after seeing 10 others now). I watched this on a whim .. mainly because I liked the title and it appeared closer to the top of the alphabetical list of dramas on crunchyroll.

There was definitely enough going on to keep me interested, but 31 episodes was WAY too long. Some areas dragged and some areas could have used more attention, imo.

I don't remember the acting being horrible, but I don't remember it being that great either. I felt that the main characters had chemistry and I was pleasantly suprised to find out that they got married in real life after shooting this drama.

We all have had songs that we identify with certain dramas. I don't particulary have a song that stood out for me in this one nor do I remember any of the songs or score. Although, this may be because a year has passed.

Sadly, I will not be rewatching this drama. 31 episodes is a lot especially when there weren't too many memorable scenes.

My review would have been very different had I reviewed it right after watching. None the less, it'll hold a special place in my drama loving heart (hence the 7/10 overall rating).
