You're Going to Cry
This has already aired.And spoiler alert!!!!
You have to prepare tissues because you are going to cry... Out of too much laughter 😅
Seasons 1 and 2 are already extra funny but this season is on another level. It's still a great family drama but this season just went over the already overboard comedy.
There's even "scenes" from favorite dramas like Meteor Garden (wahahahaa, I laughed so loud and so hard, my fam was disturbed for real 🤣🤣🤣 you have to watch to know #DaoMingSoOld). Then there's also a reenactment of "A Very Good Girl" by Zhao Ke Chun 😅🤣🤣 I laugh so hard just remembering.
This drama was so effective, you'd neglect the flaws if there's even any. It's easily going to beat a lot of mainstream drama -- it doesn't even seem like a vertical anymore with the budget and screenwriting and the cast -- the CAST!!!
I could not sing any more praises for this series. Their chemistry and dynamics were very effective and everyone was in sync. No dull moments (except for the antagonists) and all the actors (big, small, extras) were perfect for the role (they carried the job so well).
But I hope it's not wishful thinking that there's another season coming 🙏🙏🙏
Frankly, would be watching till the Nth season (around 10, hopefully? 😅🤣 I wish!).

Hope in the season 4 they wont use Wang Peiyan character as a joke anymore.
Finally i have mood to writing review about Tainai and the greatest things in this drama are supporting casts especially the brothers (the grandpa's also included in this) so it was expected to getting popular.Personally Li Keyi as Rong Yun was average because if the supporting cast was from unknown actors the result is absolutely different.
The earlier episodes had some flaws; for example, the woman was pregnant, and a DNA test could have been done directly, but they dragged it out for several episodes. The later plot was good even they added so many F4 reference, Yuyin scene in Good Girl, etc but maybe the jokes didn't make me laugh or i was too tensed when i watch this.
Chen Tianxiang in here was so refreshing and his role was an significant role quite like his tandem with Wu Tianhao. Personally Meng Na character was unnecessary in this story and her acting is her comfort zone. One of the cons of this drama is they are over the line with Wang Pei Yan slapstick joke and his character was like the idiom frog in a coconut shell by scriptwriter.
Still decent watch and personally Tinghuadao are milking this series and making Tainai 4 with Cai Xinyang as Li Keyi's love interest.
Recommended to watch for stellar supporting casts.

Part 3 of The Great Grandmother Reborn at 18 continues to excel!
I am a fan of this series because of the ensemble cast, refreshing storyline and the core theme (which is family). I was delighted to know that Chen Tian Xiang had joined the cast because I liked him a lot in She Is Only Three Points Well-Behaved. I watched this drama about two weeks ago when I was in the mood for no-romance vertical drama. I enjoyed it immensely!What I liked:
1. Comedy - Part 3 had more funny scenes. I laughed out loud thanks to Chen Tian Xiang & Wang Pei Yan's antics. The parody scenes were also amusing. Doudou I never knew she had active imagination.
2. Acting - Superb performances by the cast. Wang Pei Yan had impeccable comedic timing. I also appreciated that Wu Tian Hao had more significant scenes in this round.
3. Styling - I liked San Ge's boyish outfits. Haha I was surprised to see Labubu figurine attached to his shorts / belt loop (I wrote a reddit post about Labubu appearance in vertical dramas). Overall I must say that the Ji brothers were really stylish.
4. Family - Core theme that continues to touch our hearts. It was great to see this theme being explored in Zeng Hui's character and his family.
5. Ending - I CANNOT WAIT FOR PART 4!
6. Supporting characters - I enjoyed the cameo of Ji grandpa's childhood rival. Their bickering was always entertaining. I also liked Meng Na's role in this drama.
7. Plagiarism - I liked this scene of big corporate plagiarism. It just shows that some companies / nations are insecure that they would resort to intelligence theft / plagiarism.
What I disliked:
1. Antagonists - There wasn't a big antagonist arc that covers the whole length of the drama. Instead, there were smaller antagonist arcs such as the scheming couple, money-hungry descendant of Tang & campus belle. That campus belle was mean & insecure.
2. Mini arcs - While I think it's great that several mini arcs were explored amongst the big arc (San Ge), I found Ji grandpa's love story out of place because Tang family didn't have significant connection with the Ji. I also wished Wang Pei Yan's character arc especially related to his personal growth (not related to his family) was given more screentime.
3. Teasing - As much as I loved the Fifth brother, I felt the teasing & hitting were too much.
Favourite scene
When great grandmother did acupuncture treatment to Ji Mo Han
