It's a cute series and miles better than 'Win Jaime's Heart', which also has a social-media pickup theme and is, in a word, terrible. But I'm not sure I'll remember much about 'Meet Me Outside' a couple of weeks from now.
There's so many of these web drama BLs now that good production values and cute boys aren't going to be enough anymore.
Is it me or does people don't complain if the male lead be older than the female lead even if they are 10 year…
Maybe if she didn’t look 35? It’s downright distracting, and a little weird to see an adult trying to play a giddy young girl.
And I’d say the same thing about a ML if a clearly older actor was cast as a teenager. (Which has happened plenty of times.)
It’s bad casting. There are many actresses in their 20’s who could carry this off, just not this one. And we have a right to complain about it without insinuations that we’re sexist.
The big test for me in Ep 2 was whether the FL would actually try to kiss the ML when she knows he has had an emotional day, and has fallen asleep after a memorial ceremony for his dad that he had to carry out all by himself without the rest of his family.
And of course the thoughtless ditz goes for it.
What have they done to one of my favorite series?
The FL is utterly without redeeming qualities. This drama is approaching train-wreck status.
Viki has Ep 1 subbed only 19% but even with just that little taste I can sense a really good story here. A nice improvement after the disappointment of Wish You.
Just, wow. I felt so uncomfortable with the way Jaime was blatantly coming on to Winston. I mean, did he forget…
We'll probably see Jaime play around with Heart as well. Maybe that's the core conflict for this drama: Heart will be at odds with Winston, and the big question will be who will 'win' Jaime.
Meanwhile, the real winner will be whichever one of them runs in the opposite direction.
I can't NOT watch the rest of this series. It's so over the top that it almost plays like satire.
LOL this series is softcore porn with a budget ... even the acting is sub-par enough to meet that standard.
I'm gonna guess that the screenwriter was keeping one hand busy while he typed with the other. And it could be that he's just getting started. Not dropping this by any means! ^_^
Speculation time: The housekeeper with the milky eye has supernatural abilities and is going to bring the two timelines together. As the housekeeper she bridges both eras, and having seen Jose suffer back in the 1970's she feels for Wade in his own heartbreak. She decides to bring the two boys together.

So, to answer you question: yes, it’s you.

Right now I only sympathize with the ML and I’m pretty sure that’s not what they want viewers to feel.

I know that the standard for humor can differ depending on where you are in the world, so maybe that's what's going on here.
