My Girlfriend Is an Alien Episode 15

Show writers dragging the plot now

The plot is really dragging at this point. By blowing away Fang Leng's memories of Xiaoqi they have basically recycled the whole plot from the beginning, only with some variations such as the scheming wanna-be-girlfriend and the annoyingly stupid Fang Lei thrown into the mix. Both are there purely to act as distraction relationships to pull the leads apart for no other reason than to kill screen time. Otherwise, much of this just feels like the first 10 episodes recycled. No real progress in anyone's character except slightly maybe in Xiaoqi, who slowly is showing signs of better understanding what her emotions mean. Everyone else seems either as dangerously stupid (Fang Lei) or mentally disturbed (Fang Leng, Jiang Xue, Aunti Zhou, etc., etc.) as they were at the start. The story at this point just recycles some of the plot gimmick from the early part of the series and otherwise throws in one cliche' drama trope after another. Some work as gags. Many don't.
