First Impression: Let Me Into Your Heart
Overall: decent start. Based on a book with the same title which I haven't read and I am reviewing this series based on it's own merits. 10 episodes about 45 minutes each. Airing on Let Me Into Your Heart YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAtoaKETK9kWhat I Liked
- the costume/dance aspect
- clear premise
- didn't have the exaggerated comedy sound effects
Room For Improvement
- the main woman character is cliche, hopefully she doesn't go into more cliches
- chemistry/dynamic tbd
Question - it seemed odd that a performer would wear dark sunglasses during a performance since the eyes convey so much but perhaps this is a cultural thing?

First Impression: Me and Thee
Overall: I'm trying to view this thru a comedy lens. 10 episodes about 1 hour each. Based on a book "Me and Thee" by laWilathat which I haven't read and I am reviewing the series on its own merits. Airing on iQIYI https://www.iq.com/play/me-and-thee-episode-1-14dekvm74mw?lang=en_us and GMMTV's YouTube channel (not in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Canada, U.S.)What I Liked
- styling/set design
- easy to understand premise
- I did chuckle a few times*
Room For Improvement
- *the comedy sound effects didn't make things funny and detracted from the humor

First Impression: Black and White is Real
Overall: it was a confusing and slow start. Airing 78 short (couple minute) episodes on the VBL Series YouTube Channe. Episodes 1-6 together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fooxYWutZdY&list=PLsvZaVybjXZcytdex6AFISdzKixXOTguq&index=1Content Warning: Manhandling
What I Liked
- seeing the leads from Fight For You
Room For Improvement
- the first 7 episodes didn't hook me
- confused because it seemed like they knew each other in the past but in the present one doesn't know the other/was cold towards him

First Impression: Melody of Secrets
Overall: episode 1 was a bit confusing; however, I like that it's a bit different for a premise. 10 episodes about 45 minutes each. Airing on GMMTV's YouTube channel https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLszepnkojZI6XS68TbMnSxkKingYfxiXv&si=f3hz9MktxKrIILB- (not available in Thailand)Content Warning: episode 1 part 1 has a jump scare around 16:30, past murder body shown
What I Liked
- mystery
Room For Improvement
- confusing start with multiple time jumps/memories
- why would a character wait that many years to approach another character?
