Episode 1 First Impressions

Storyline 📝:
No comment yet, since Episode 1 only showcases the characters first.

Cinematography 🌇:
Man, this is where the show really stands out. I have never seen a rom-com with this kind of cinematography. The wide shots, especially when they are trying to find the restaurant, are outstanding. The close-up shots are on point, and all the camera work has meaning behind it.
It really goes back to cinematography textbook basics. There are no unnecessary shots, and everything feels calculated. Every scene is prepared precisely, from the rule of thirds to the overall composition. Nothing feels random.

Comedy 🎭:
All I can say is this, you had me laughing hard. Not the usual rom-com kind of laugh, but genuine laughter. The kind of joke where if someone said it in front of me, I would be rolling on the floor laughing 🤣. Comedy-wise, it is really good.

Overall:
Episode 1 does not try to do too much story-wise, but visually, it already sets a very high standard.
