people will legit tune into a mafia story and then act all outraged when the mafia people do bad things...like tf did you think the mafia would do? Politely make love in a rose filled mattress at a hotel? Skip down disneyland and declare undying love for all things consent?
It really shocks me to no end.
Like y'all are so great at excusing murder and torture as pure fiction but noncon as some kind of rape propaganda.
Stop.
If you don't want to watch mafia series, there are so many series you can watch without virtuesignaling here.
I think this might air when love in the clouds is still broadcasting.
Yah....as i said.....they 'almost always'....Almost......
The fact that it happened once with "Ski Into Love" and "The First Frost" is precisely the exception that proves the rule. It's not Youku's usual way of doing things. It's remembered precisely because it was an unusual, self-sabotaging move.
I mean...it's just bad business to have your own shows fight each other for viewers. Why split your audience and hype in half when you could have one big hit now and another one in a month?
This actually affected Ski Into Love more cause people just picked a side and stuck to it. There was a lot of discourse over this....but anyways no matter how high modern drama budget it, its not historical level high.
Business wise, it makes sense to air the two seperately so that Youku stays on top constantly instead of just for a few weeks.
So yeah, they can do it, but it's shooting themselves in the foot. They're way smarter to space them out.
I'm not ruling out, but it would be weird and it would pmo😅😅😅

but the market share doesn't really consider that...what they usually want is a Youku drama dominating at different intervals so they almost never air them together.....cause it does them no good to divide the market when they can get a share now and then get it again a month later
Same reason people give high ratings for all the episodes too....if people are allowed to highly rate during the…
Exactly. You've just confirmed my point.
You're justifying "blind love" as an acceptable emotion, while condemning "blind hatred" as an unacceptable one. That's an emotional preference, not a standard of fairness.
The principle of fairness is simple: judge something based on its actual content, not your preconceived feelings. If we agree that principle is being broken, then both the 1/10 rating from someone who hates the actor and the 10/10 rating from someone who loves the actor are equally invalid and unfair to the art itself.
By only calling out the low ratings, you are not defending fairness. You are defending a positive atmosphere for the drama, which is a different goal altogether. It's fine to want that, but don't veil it as a quest for fairness. That's what's inaccurate.
Call it what it is: you're okay with blind support, but you're not okay with blind criticism. That's a double standard, not fairness.
Words have meaning...the word fair has its meaning and its definition....if we stretch it to accommodate everyone's feeling on the matter and make it elastic enough for different interpretation...then it becomes a completely different word.
And this is facts....while a low MDL rating might feel personally unfair to the crew, it has no significant negative impact on their careers if the drama is a hit domestically.
Domestic success on Douban is what determines their future jobs, pay, and prestige. International success can provide a bonus in global fame and revenue.....a very small bonus, but it doesn't counteract domestic failure.
Therefore, the crew's primary focus...and the true measure of their success...will always be the Chinese market. And its a big market.
A low MDL rating is simply not a professional concern for them ...not enough to worry over how the crew will feel about random people rating them
Same reason people give high ratings for all the episodes too....if people are allowed to highly rate during the…
But if we're being for real....the drama crew are paid way before....and even if the reviews are considered....MDL reviews are the very last place they will look to determine anything.
Its very farfetched to think underating this will cripple the actors in any way or that highly rating it will benefit them in any way.
International audience has very very little influence on these things. These dramas cater mostly to the Chinese audience ...and high ratings here mean very little to the overall success of the drama🤷♂️
Same reason people give high ratings for all the episodes too....if people are allowed to highly rate during the…
So its not about unfairness then...its about emotions. You don't want fairness you want good emotions towards the drama.....Blind love is Ok but Blind Hatred is not.....
That's Ok....but veiling it as if seem ng fairness is inaccurate
Same reason people give high ratings for all the episodes too....if people are allowed to highly rate during the…
i didn't make it seem that way..i legit asked a question....its really not that deep.
i never thought you were picking a fight either....i mean there's nothing to fight over imo....i took it as a normal conversation.
my whole thing was a question....i asked if a high rating is also unfair. You said yes...simple....there was nowhere where i made it seem like anything
How could some people already give low ratings for all of the episodes already? The first 3 episodes were so good.
Same reason people give high ratings for all the episodes too....if people are allowed to highly rate during the first few ...low ratings should be allowed too
I really don't know why the fuck all u inbred weirdos cant mind you fucking businesses and fuck away from me.
I said what i said...it it applies to you, great, if it doesn't then just don't mind it...very simple
It really shocks me to no end.

but they are both Youku drama....how could Youku let them compete for market share at once and having no big dramas for a while....

nb i haven't rated .. haven't watched the drama but I'm curious about this.
why are high ratings of the entire drama allowed but low ratings unfair?
