Definitely gonna watch
This is gonna be a good one, judging from the pilot here. The time-travel aspect makes it interesting and there is also some crime-solving and of course a great BL love story. What’s not to like?The characters seem interesting and the comedy part is not exaggerated like we see in many Thai BLs. t's ok in some shows (like those with very young actors), but I like the more serious BLs where the comedy is more subtle.
Acting wise it looks like the pairing of James and Net is a good one. Their chemistry seems good and I look forward to watching how their love story unfolds.

Problematic mini-show with abusive content
This is a problematic mini-show. The storyline is abusive and there is sexual harassment in the beginning. I know that in many countries it’s technically not considered sexual harassment (rape) if it happens in a legal marriage - as in this show where FL loves ML. But that doesn’t make it ok. Seeing past the obvious problem this is a story about misunderstandings, manipulations, greed and love. Sometimes we have to lose somebody before we get to know their importance.Character wise we have a FL who has been in love with ML since they met in school (around 11 years when the story starts). Then we have this ML who is a CEO and a rough man. Thinking he was tricked by FL to marry her instead of her sister (whom he thinks saved him during an earthquake) he treats FL as an enemy. Besides that we have this 2FL (FLs sister) who is straight out a bitch.
Acting wise: This is not top shelf or anywhere near that, but it’s not bad either.
So, if you like these kinds of stories - and can get past the abusive part - this is an ok watch.

Sweet and interesting in-game story
This is such a nice movie. The storyline is not exactly new but it is interesting enough to catch your attention. It’s lighthearted but also tells a love story between two young people who have a hard time expressing their feelings.FL and ML are so sweet and lovable. FL's switching back and forth between her two female friends' personalities and her own is fun but also impressive acting wise. Both of them are really good actors.
The ending is so sweet and very fitting.
So, if you are in the mood for something sweet and interesting, this is well worth watching.

Interesting short time-travel show that doesn't feel rushed
This is a great short show. The storyline is interesting even if the basic premise isn’t explored well enough in my opinion. In that I mean that there aren't enough missions or healing/curing of patients which there should have been since that is why FL travels into this new world/dimension. Not that it ruins the show but it does make it feel like it has some unlocked potential. At least it didn’t feel rushed and the ending was actually pretty good.Character wise:
FL is a modern day medical student who somehow travels in time/dimension. There, her identity is a princess from an adjacent state. She is medical skilled, resourceful and has a strong personality - unlike many of the women around her. One thing that occurred to me was that FLs bedside manners could use an update, LOL.
ML is a calm and cunning prince that hides a lot of secrets including a strange illness that FL seems to have a beneficial effect on.
Acting wise this was pretty good. The actors did a great job with their characters despite the limited timeframe.
So, if you like a romantic time-travel story - with an interesting storyline - this is definitely well worth watching.

Interesting time-travel themed short show with food for thoughts
This is an interesting short show. The storyline starts off quite simple but soon gets more complicated since more than one person goes back in time. I see this show as trying to play with “What if…” in the sense that these people get a chance to see what happens if they make other decisions now than they did back then. Quite an interesting thought that I think many of us have had at some point in life.Character wise:
We have this sweet and kind FL who is abused by her husband and commits suicide but is somehow given the chance to go back 10 years before she chooses the wrong person to marry.
We also have this nice and caring ML who is drugged and tricked into marrying a woman he doesn’t like who also commits suicide. He also gets the chance to avoid his miserable life.
The two of them were in love back then so now they get a chance to be together. Will it be possible to live another life and be happy, or is the life they ended up in really their unchangeable destiny? That is what this story gives us a take on.
Acting wise this is pretty good and the actors portray their characters well within the limited timeframe.
So, if you like a good time-travel/dimension-travel story - with a satisfying ending - this is actually well worth watching.

Great version of the “My Boyfriend Favored his White Moonlight, So I Left”-story
This is a great version of the “My Boyfriend Favored his White Moonlight, So I Left”-story with great actors and a slightly comical storyline.I loved this calm/dignified/sweet FL and supportive/warm/passionate/nice ML (great chemistry) - and the feisty but supportive MIL (rare).
It really is a shame that the subs are utter nonsense most of the time (in the version I watched), but it’s not a complicated story, so I can live with it.
Anyway, I was quite entertained by this one and it’s definitely well worth watching.

Funny and lighthearted romantic story
This is a funny, lighthearted romantic story with really good actors and a storyline that keeps you engaged.As often with this actress we get a strong/adamant/kind FL, able to fend for herself. This ML is calm/warm/loyal/nice but powerful when needed.
Despite it being short and some subs were inadequate (YouTube playlist), I truly enjoyed this one. Definitely well worth watching.

investigative version of the “Modern day Doctor transmigrates into ancient times”-story
This is a great, lighthearted, investigative version of the “Modern day Doctor transmigrates into ancient times”-story.This version has an aspiring coroner as the transmigrated person so the storyline is mostly about crime-solving.
I loved this peppy/clever/carefree FL and powerful/calm/nice ML. Although focus is on the case, there is actually room for romance (good chemistry).
This is definitely well worth watching but beware the ending.

Great “Harem fight”-production with great twist
This is a great “Harem fight”-production with really good actors and an interesting storyline that contains a great twist in the end.I loved this strong/adamant/fierce FL but I can’t say I even remotely liked the weak/manipulative/cruel ML.
Normally I shun away from Harem fights, but this one I liked - both the production and the ending. Definitely well worth the watch.

Nice transmigration, costume production
This is a nice transmigration, costume production with an interesting storyline. The summary should rather say that she has to mess with 5 men in order to obtain their beads, not marry. And she never becomes a female version of “Wei Xiao Bao”. I guess the one who wrote the summary didn't actually watch the production - or had some other glasses on than me.Acting wise this is difficult to rate. I know it’s set in the comical universe, but I did find FL too excessive in her speaking - or rather yelling to a point where my ears were bleeding, LOL, and body language. Not that I didn’t like her character because I did - it actually had a depth that is sometimes missing in short/comical productions. It was just too peppy for me.
I found that the “Moneymaking”-arc was too extensive and the “Bead”-arc underdeveloped (and that is what it should have been mostly about). The “Power struggle”-arc was good.
Well, if you need something funny, not angsty and with an interesting storyline, this is worth watching.

Great detective story with lots of eye candy
I admit, this is one of the productions with the most good-looking cast I’ve ever seen. Even the supporting actors/actresses were pure eye-candy (which is pretty much the premise of the story). But this is also a great detective story. Even if I guessed “the villain” and his identity almost right away, the storyline and unraveling of the case(s) was interesting. The twists and turns were nicely executed and kept me a bit confused as to exactly why and how - that’s always a sign of a good story. And even the romance between the main leads was nice to watch with a natural flow to it.Character wise, I liked that this FL was smart but not overly smart and her martial arts was really good but she wasn’t invincible nor was she fearless. A character that wasn't one-dimensional. I found ML to suit the job, since he had to be highly intelligent, calm and fearless. He had a strong presence.
Acting wise this was great and the chemistry between the main leads was good, not sizzling but suitable for their respective characters.
So, if you like an intriguing and romantic detective-story, this is definitely well worth watching.

Nice low budget mini-show
This is a nice low budget mini-show. The storyline is interesting in there being a kid involved. Other than that, it’s quite cliché.Character wise:
FL is somehow framed into spending the night with ML, resulting in a kid. She is a kind and sweet woman. ML is a cold CEO who ends up spending the night with FL even if he doesn’t want to. Seeing he has a child, he wants to spend time with him and thereby reconnects with FL. And so the story begins.
Acting wise this might not be top notch but it isn’t anywhere near bad. The actors do a good job within the limited timeframe.
Well, if you look for something simple and sweet, this is actually worth watching.

Surprisingly entertaining mini-show
What a surprise that was. This turned out to be a great mini-show. The storyline was romantic, passionate, intriguing and a bit exciting. I don’t think I have seen anything quite like this.From the comments section I expected something bland and not that interesting but this is anything but. It might not be the story of a century but it doesn’t have to be as long as I am entertained - and that I was.
Character wise:
We have this mentally strong, fearless and persistent FL who will do just about anything to get her “story”/headline. In doing so she meets this ML who is somewhat of a chameleon. He has a hidden identity causing him to shun all personal relationships. Their meeting and falling in love turns their worlds upside down.
Acting wise this is great. There aren't a lot of characters and the chemistry between the main couple is what fuels this show. Sizzling might be the best word for that, LOL.
Well, if you like a good romantic drama - with an intriguing storyline - this is definitely well worth watching.

Funny and romantic mini-show with time-travel theme
OMG this is a funny and romantic mini- show. The storyline of time-/dimension travel isn’t exactly new but this has some twists that sets it apart from others. Only downside is that it has an open ending. But that might be a good thing because it means that there must be a second season in store for us at some point.I have been following this couple and seen a large part of their work. I must say that they keep improving. The first productions were visibly low-budget but this one has the feel of a normal budget production - even if the fast pace and abrupt editing gives it away.
Character wise:
FL is a cute and kind woman who first encounters ML after he time-travels to modern time. ML is a fierce empirical guard to the presiding emperor who, in a fight with the Grand Perceptor, ends up time-traveling to modern time.
2ML is the Grand Preceptor who has a history with FL who now doesn’t remember him. He is strong and adamant in pursuing FL. He has even changed his face to look like ML.
The two men end up battling each other in order to get FL and a couple of other characters interfere and chaos breaks out.
Acting wise this is pretty good. All the actors do a good job with their character given the limited timeframe. Personally I really like Samael and Lilith because they make different kinds of stories.
So, if you like a fast paced mini-show - with fights and romance - this is definitely well worth watching.

Nice fantasy mini-show
This is a nice fantasy mini-show. The storyline might not be all new and refreshing, but it is interesting.Character wise we have this little plant that has recently taken human form (FL). She is kind and naive. ML is a strong and powerful immortal that is somehow connected to FL but also possessed by something evil that takes over under certain circumstances. FL seems to be able to subdue the evil in ML.
Acting wise this is good. There isn’t much time for the actors to shine given the short format but the actors do a good job.
So, if you like a nice fantasy mini-show, this is a nice watch.
