Can give it a try if nothing else is interesting to watch
The first episodes were good with the concept of female lead, Xia Xiaolan, time travelling back in times, where she finds herself in a new role alongside a new family, where only her mother is the lone supporter of her, staring against a few challenges, establishing her own career, implementing her business ideas, getting university seat, finding Zhou Cheng, male lead, and rising gradually with the help of her uncle, aunt and mom.At first, it was quite inspiring, motivating, to see Xiaolan trying to change both her fate and the person's life she has landed herself into.
But as the stroy progressed, it seems that there is nothing Xiaolan can predict, none of her judgement goes wrong and every step she takes is bound to become a huge success..
It has become repetitive and boring.
Though I didn't watch the complete drama, but its a good watch atleast for the first 6-7episode,for me.
I may not reqatch it again, anyways, it is strictly my honest opinion.

A decent watch
The shadow detective is a good watch. There may be few boring scenes, plots without logic, flaws in the stroy, but it still manages to keep you watching till the end.There are individual cases solved by the police department and intelligence department as well as a main case which is linked to the female lead past as well as the missing sister of male lead.
Wang Xingyue as usual, was very good in his role. He as Guan Cen, is definitely one of the main plus points of this drama.
All the other actors were good too in their acting.
The screenplay and pacing were good, neither fast nor slow.
The antagonist was quite scary and his acting deserves an applause👏
For me, the female lead's character was a bit let down,otherwise everything else is good.
A one time watch drama for me.

A better execution could have made it a beautiful drama
Love never fails is all about the love story between Jin Xiu, the prince of Midheavens and Hong Ning, a red camellia demon.As they traverse through different lifetimes, they face unprecedented situations, overcome many difficulties, clear misunderstandings, and finally establish peace in the world.
The first 11 episodes deal with immortal arc and to be honest, I was not quite impressed with the way the love track was developed between the leads. Somehow, I couldn't find the female lead to be cute, but was sometimes annoying too.
The next arc, they are master and disciple, which too ends in tragedy. This arc was much better than the heavens, and then they become general and demon hunter in their next life and in the final arc, ascens to the heavens again, where they find out Jin Xiu's true identity, eliminate evil and bring everything to an end.
I felt that, the last 10 episodes were quite interesting, with mysteries unraveling.
The actors were good in their performances, not the best.
The sets and costumes were very grand though.
Only if the execution was a bit better, it could have been a very good drama, but for me its strictly a one-time watch!!

A simple school love and friendship
When I fly towards you is a very simple, light hearted, high school drama that focuses on the friendship of 5 students with a blooming love beteeen 2 couples amongst them.Su Zaizai, Jiang Jia, Zhang Lurang, Gu Ran and Guan Feng,the group of theses 5 is very impressive😍
Their families and their relations are also focused upon, especially I liked the relatiin between Guan Feng and his grandma and also Su Zaizai's parents.
This drama mainly focuses on all our opinions, ideals, friendships, classes, studies, homework, that we go through in our high school days. I liked that the plot was kept simple with no issue dragging on for a long time.
However, what I liked the most are the DIALOGUES of this drama. They are very simply written yet seem to carry a powerful meaning beneath them.
All the cast acting is good. 👌
The music, costumes, locations, all are good.
Looking for a simple, worry free drama, then this one is for you. Recommend to watch it👍

Definitely watchable, imho!!
Fox spirit matchmaker has been kept on my watchlist for a long time, and finally I gave it a try.I am glad that I came back to watch this series.
Despite some loopholes, some flaws and few boring scenes which may not click well, the drama is definitely a MUST WATCH one, given its unique plot and the way the series is woven around the concept of "Love wins over hatred"!!
Unlike other Xianxia dramas, where the the first half proceeds with the hidden identities of the protagonists while the latter half deals with unraveling their past life secrets and powers, this drama is all about the Tushan clan of Fox spirits and the Grief tree and various love stories.
Both the protagonists and antagonist are introduced to us in the beginning itself.
The story mingles love of various couples with mysteries waiting to be unlocked, sacrifices made to deal with the villains and the various emotions of all the characters involved.
The acting, music, special effects, screenplay, plot, costumes, everything were good, imo. 👍
Though I cannot say this is the best xianxia drama, but definitely it can be given a try, atleast, for its story.
On a final note, A GOOD WATCH👌

A simple, decent and pleasant watch!!
Flying up without disturb, surely is a good and decent watch with not so nail biting or tensive moments, yet manages to keep you watching it.The story may seem like a regular xianxia drama, but with beautiful locations, good acting of the cast, beautiful costumes, it really makes up a good watch👍
Li Hongyi as Grandmaster Zhongxi/Huazong, is perfect in his acting. He is calm, pleasant, smart, intelligent, powerful, loving, caring and a gentle person.
Lu Ting Yu as Konghou, really surprised me with her acting. From a cheerful, active, innocent yet smart female lead to a powerful dark lord, she is very
impressive 👌
All the other actors were good.
The locations are very pleasant and very pleasing for the eye to watch. 🤗
The development of a mutual, understanding, cooperative, supportive love stroy between the main leads is also very good👏
Overall, this drama is definitely a Worth Watching one, despite its flaws, some boring moments!!
I will definitely recommend to give it a try, you will not be disappointed, but leaves a good impression on us💯

Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty 3: To Changan

Detective team to the west!!
The detective team of Su Wuming, Lu Lingfeng, Pei Xijun, Chu Yingtao, Chicken Fei with Xue Huan on board for this season, once again they take us on a ride of suspense, mystery, conspiracies, woven in and around Chang'an along with opening a new business too.All the actors were great in their performances. Once again, the teamwork of these 6 rocks!!
Although the whole team of 6 solve many cases, unravel sinisterous plots which are nothing but the thoughts of human hearts, somehow I felt that the cases were as not interesting as the first 2 seasons.
The cases somehow lacked to engage me in them.
But still, I would like to recommend to watch it.
It may not be a perfect sequel, but will not disappoint you too.
A good watch, but only for once!!

A light hearted one
Follow your heart may not be an extraordinary masterpiece, but it will entertain you for sure.Luo Yunxi and Song Yi were good in their performances. All the other actors were also good in their roles.
Though there may be some boring episodes, but its still watchable for few hilarious moments, acting, and the slow burn romantic track between the couples.

Shrek seven devils-simple yet amazing!!!
Tang San and his Seven devils together with their masters bring to us a very simple, light hearted yet amazing and entertaining Douluo continent.The plot revilves around spirit masters and various mysteries arou d them in the Douluo continent.
The main focus however is on the seven students of Shrek academy and their stories.
I liked the emotional development between these seven students, also with their masters and how they stay lotal to Shrek academy, despite overcoming many hurdles and difficulties. They deal with powerfhl spirit masters, titled duoluos and even various academies with their tacit understanding and excellent team work.
I particularly liked the action scenes in this drama. The special effects were also good.
All the cast were excellent in their performances. As usual, Xiao Zhan never fails to give excellent performance and Tang San is another example.
Wu Xuanyi and the rest were also very good in their roles.
There may be some times, when the drama pace may seem slow, or sometimes you may get bored, but the plot is very good and as the story proceeds, it becomes much more interesting.
So, this is a highly recommended drama!! You will not be disappointed.

Could be much better!!
The drama started off well instilling with a kind of enthusiasm to watch it further in me.But as it progressed further,the writing lacked depth and intensity too.Maybe if few parts were written much better,the drama would be an excellent series.But somehow the story went downhill after few episodes.
The saving graces were the actors whose performances were good.Tge production, costumes and locations were also good.
For me it is strictly a one time watch.

An enjoyable watch of everlasting love
The story focusses on Jun Qi Luo,from Yannan,who gets captured by the to be wolf lord of Beixuan,Xuan Lie,who is searching for Jun Fei Fan,Baigong's heir,for resolving the mystery of his parents death 12 years ago.Angelababy as Jun Qi Luo/Jun feifan, is smart, practical,kind,matured,dedicated,skilled and intelligent woman who is well known for the weapons she designs as Baigong's heir.
Song Weilong as usual,shines as Xuan Lie,who is smart,brave,confident.His love for Qi Luo is undeterring and exceptional!!
How the both of them solve all the difficulties that come their way and pass all the hurdles to be together at the end forms the next part of the story.
The pace is good with very few boring moments.Costumes,sets, locations,all are very pleasant to watch.
All the actors fit their roles perfectly.
Overall it is an enjoyable and a decent watch!!

Could have been better
Shining just for you starts off in an interesting manner but as the story progressed,,failed to keep me engaged till the end.The plot though good,somehow went flat after few episodes.Actors acting may keep us hooked till the end.
However,the sets,costumes and interiors were very grand and were very good to watch.
For me,it is a strict one time watch.
Watch it for the lavish sets, grand costumes and actors.

Justice for a relentless effort!!!!
Under the microscope deals with a unique concept of land measurement and silk poll tax.Renhua county ,one of the 8 counties under Jin'an prefecture,has been paying 3530 tales extra tax towards the silk every year,for the past 100 years.Shuai Jiamo,known to be an arithmetic nut, accidentally encounters differences in land measurements and title deeds which leads to a conspiracy hidden for the past 20 years and eventually opens up the reason behind his parents death.
In a short drama spanning 14 episodes,the presentation was done excellently.From the investigation to the mystery unveiling,the process,the people involved,the pain taken by the protagonist and his friend, everything was perfect.
Zhang Ruo Yun ,Wang Yang,and all the other actors played their parts well.
The story, sequence of events, the twist,all were good.
I felt a slight discomfort only with the locations,but given the premise it is reasonable.Other than that,it is a highly recommended and worth watching drama.
Go for it👍👍

Loved this drama!!!
Thousand years for you has long been on my watchlist and finally I am glad that I have watched it.The plot mainly revolves around Lu Yan, the general of the ancient Shu dynasty who patiently waits for the return of YunXi,the saintess of the spirit clan for 3000 years.He accidentally encounters Yu Dengdeng who is the embodiment of none other than Yun Xi.
Then begins the story of pure love entangled with mysteries and conspiracies unraveling deadly secrets along the journey to achieve peace between the human and spirit races.
Ren Jialun as Lu Yan, is cool, smart, decent,matured, very reserved,well balanced and duty oriented general who devotes himself to the protection of the people of the ancient Shu dynasty,precisely the human clan.His acting was excellent as he could express emotions through eyes with almost very few dialogues for him to deliver for his role.Ren Jialun,really appears as a classical hero for me and once again this drama proves it to be true.
Li Qing as,Yun Xi/Yu Dengdeng is perfectly cast for her role.I cannot imagine anyone else except for her.From her portrayal as the noble,peace loving,caring,kind,loyal saintess to a tomboyish,naughty,domineering yet cheerful,kind,loving,caring, courageous and brave Chieftain ,she is excellent all the way.Her dialogue delivery was also good.She brought life to the character of the Saintess and Chieftain,imo.
I liked the story of Gu Beixi and Bai Shiqi,though it was short lived.
Xin,Dahai,Deng deng's father and Uncle,are the ones that everyone need in their lives.Their support and love towards Yu DengDeng and Lu Yan is unparalleled.
All the actors did an excellent job in bringing life to the whole drama.
The story keeps you hooked with different types of conspiracies and obstacles that always stumble on the way of the protagonists and their friends.Many secrets unfold as they move from one place to another.
The costumes, sets, locations, visual effects and ost were also good.The background music matched well with the scenes.The flow of this drama is very consistent without any deviations.
Also,I really liked the little conversation between Lu Yan as general and saintess YunXi.
Their moments ,though were very short on screen, surely impress us.I really enjoyed these scenes.
On a conclusion note, Thousand years for you is an enjoyable,impressive,simple drama.It showcases pure love between two individuals which remained eternal even after 3000 years.
It blends mysteries with morals perfectly and strikes the right balance with the audience.
A HIGHLY RECOMMENDED DRAMA 👍👍

An excellent, impressive, engaging sequel
The second season has far exceeded my expectations and also to be precise,the first season too.The cases the team of five dealt with are well written and the analysis and investigation parts were excellent.
Each and every case was very interesting and kept me hooked till the end.The last case was my favourite in particular.
The way even minute details were analysed and investigated was really impressive.
Also,the bond between the team of five stands as the main asset of this drama.Locations, costumes,sets,plot, twists and turns,logics,screenplay everything is perfect about this drama.
The actors gave their outstanding performances.
A highly impressive and entertaining and engaging sequel .
A highly recommended drama which is a must watch.
