Recalculated my assumption of this drama

This has so many great actors in it, but like the other two series, just not that great. The script is what is killing this series. Love in Pavilion is the best of the 3 series. The script is like a teenager with no experience embarked on script writing. It's so kiddish it makes me cringe. I'm only on the 10th episode, but am hoping it gets better as it goes on. I'm not sure if I will be able to finish this one, but watching one episode a day is doable.

ADD ON: The script has gotten better. There have been many funny scenes that started once Chang Hua Sen (Fox puppy) and his lady of interest entered the script. I must say Chang Hua Sen is ON FIRE these days. He's in Blood River and Whispers of Fate. His role as the fox is so darn cute that I have giggled my way through his appearances. He holds true to the character he's playing.

Another actor I have to shout out to in this drama is the mean little spider brother, played by Wang Hong Yi. His eyes are killing me. 😂 He is portraying his character very well. The scene where him and the Fox puppy happen had me in stitches. You will know it when it happens.

Cheng Yi and his female lead may be listed as the main actor and actress, but I have to say they are not the only glue holding this drama together. The whole cast are funny or good or evil in the best possible way. I have recalculated my review above.
