I ALMOST loved this-then they had to switch gears and turn things around so you wonder if it's the same drama at all. The first 4 or so episodes were alot of fun, with the leads playing cat & mouse, a who done it mystery, disguises and clever stories within stories. Then that quirkiness and fun does a full stop and the characters loose thier shine. The series gets fixated on fighting sequences that hilariously end with the female lead deciding she's just had enough & isn't going to wait to be saved. The unraveling the mystery was fun, the actual interaction with the villain is tedious at best (with so much obviously fake blood !). But even that leaves room for a fulfilling happy ending, yet the writers chose to drag things out with inane fillers at the end. This reminded me of Doom at your Service, where the happy ending is given to you at half power in the 2nd to the last episode then fails to follow through ,instead focusing on tying up everyone's story in a bow so that what they end up giving us are crumbs, & not a truly satisfying lead couple moment to end the series with.


Spoiler rant:

The Kiss between the leads is so poorly set up and the timing is off ! He's crying, she's standing there and then without any segway, she's in his lap & they are kissing. What !? You feel like; ok it's such a nice kiss that you can forgive them for whatever they cut out that shows how she got into his lap
