We still have Episodes 7 and 8, so we may be pleasantly surprised. I'm willing to give it a chance, especially…
I envy you cause im not sure if i can even stand to watch it again. I hate dropping series midway (like i dod to my day, amore, boyband) but i really really cant stand this anymore.
Sandee being a shitty person is super annoying (i dont even care if she sees ghost) but the actress' acting and the crying and the pretend vulnerability is just way too much to see every episode with 20min runtime. Wait, is the title My Extraordinary referring to her since she has extraordinary powers? Is she the real star of the show?
Also, how can they write the mother's character like that - she pretends to be strongwilled and yet she let herself be manipulated by that little shit.
Oh god, this show has started so strong, and then fell so hard on its face in the last 2 episodes. Episode 6 in particular is just a disaster and so hard to watch - it is pretty obvious and cheaply executed that the main actor is now playing a ghost.
I had doubts with that Sandie character since the beginning and now i can finally confirm that she is one of the most annoying characters ever written. Everytime she is on screen i just want to pry my eyes out. And the mother??? Shes a motherf****$.
Sorry My Extraordinary, you are not extraordinary.
I agree with one comment below that this show is a bit overrated. I don't know, I'm watching a Filipino BL, but…
Utara, like you, so far i find the series a bit overrated. However, I dont find Judit annoying, in fact she is my fave in it, but for me the series started out too strong, and then it kinda fizzled after. It is way better than a lot of the other pinoy BL out there (ahem hello stranger, MyDay, saKristan) but i dont think it sets the gold standard. Not yet. For me so far Gameboys is still better.
Past few episodes has become an unending rehash and recap and reuse of old footages obviously to extend the time. The finale was supposed to the climax but i end up almost hating the episode because its rehash and montages every few minutes. There is such thing as overuse and overkill. The delivery of Tau speech for example has become such a bore instead of being touching - once sentence or about 5 seconds then montage then another sentence then montage. My golay.
Fot me it was a little different, the pacing has been painfully slow. Yes, i forgive them for showing past clips…
Yes, i love the whole gang. I actually want to see more of them. What i was hoping instead of the slow pacing and unending flashbacks we could have more scenes with Bianx and Jet, and i want to know more about Nicole. Of course i waa hoping to see more og the Pangs couple. I like the facr that eventhough these actors are relatively new to the industry they are already good. Maybe thats why i want more of them.

Yes, the intro and outro is so long, for a 20min runtime. Plus theres a long recap.and then when you get to the episode its the recap of the past few episode.
Ifeel bad because i love almost all the charcaters in the show but really the slow pacing is putting me off.
Episode 13: Bunyag was a good episode that sets up next week's finale. Being a non-linear narrative, the sequence…
Fot me it was a little different, the pacing has been painfully slow. Yes, i forgive them for showing past clips to tell us that Ri actually helped in the plan, but to use the whole episode for that is a little bit too much. Its like the production team is treating its viewers like kids that everything has to be explained in details. I feel like the whole series can be condensed into 6 or 8 episodes and it will still tell the same story.
What? It's a fetish to think a love scene is hot? Some people here are really prudish. Yikes.
Do we really believe this series can turn around in the next four episodes, hell no! Like you said this is definitely a trainwreck but a trainwreck i cant stop watching. If my eyeball can popup it would have dropped on the floor a hundred times from almost everyminute of the show that my eyes rolled up in agony. For me the overall concept and journey of the leads realizing their real sexuality is still enjoyable enough for me to ignore all the crazy things and shortcomings of this series. Im not into that hot steamy scenes too but i dont see the problem with it.
OK. This series has so many flaws, it's not even worth mentioning. However, it has been a little bit of a comedic…
I like your comment, this series is just so bad its so good and is a comedic relief for me. I only stayed watching because of the cute leads. It is not worthy of an 8 rating cause there are so many dramas out there which is rated lower but are a lot better - but will i still watch it, yes, as long as they keeo showing those sweet little moments.
Lol when you compared it to a person with split personality. I dont know if you know Aaron Sorkin, whatever i…
Yes i know Mr Sorkin, and i do agree with your observation. I remember watching Newsroom (and mind you i love that series) but a lot of the times everyone seems like theyre performing monologues. It can be a writing style i guess, but it can get pretty boring pretty fast.
Im glad im not alone - that story revolves around 4 bully guys roaming around their rich exclusive school. Like they own the thing - and bullies students to oblivion if they dont like you. Misogyny. And we are supposed to fall for them for being the best looking a$$holes. And then this girl is supposed to change these 4 boys into good men.
