I’m umming and erring about continuing at ep3. I love your Sloth Quitting™️ and might have to employ it…
Yes, it was sort of ok for a little while but it just got more and more iffy. Sloths unite! :D

Review Lovely Runner
My question is how did so many people fan girl this drama without having any sense of critical analysis? I think…
I would love to read your review if you can type it out again. :)
You nailed it when you say ppl fangirl over a show/star. Ask no questions when your idol is on stage. It is mob mentality. You don't want to be the lone distractor.
I don't set out to be critical about any show nor would I go in with blinkers on. ;) I just write reviews as I see them. Warts and all. Cheers! :)

thanks. nice review. sometimes. i cant get into side stories.either i dont like specific actor/chatacter , or…
Thanks for your kind words. I have to reread the review. LoL It was a while since I watched it.
Hmm, yes, it has the potential but it really wandered around the garden path and the pacing and the plots of the show got more and more inconsistent as it goes along.
That's the problem with a 30+ EP drama. Some show has a clear focus, some just seems to lose track and pad it out as best they can. Sadly, this is the later.

Thank you for your review. As feared, this drama is full of tropes that I hate. I'll pass on this one.
Thank you for your kind words.
:) I know how you feel. I'm glad that you found my random musing useful.

Thank you for your comment. It made my day! I know the ending is open to interpretation. I would like to put my own spin on it and I think it is a nice ending and it is plausible. ;)

Thank you so much for your kind words. :DYes, this one is watchable largely because the leads are cute and sweet…
he he, I share your pain. :D

I loved your review! Your phrase "everyone gets something, Oprah style"? Brilliant! I started this show last night…
Thank you so much for your kind words. :D
Yes, this one is watchable largely because the leads are cute and sweet together but once you peel back the façade, it is pretty much the old reincarnation love story trope. In fact, 3 popular dramas this year are all based on the lead dying and rewinding time to do-over their mistakes. We are not in the golden age of creative writing. ;)

Thank you, I really don't have anything to add but agree with your review
Appreciate your comment. :)

Ah yes, I do have issues with people who rate every show 10/10. It becomes meaningless. This is particularly true with certain sites where any note of dissent is quickly shouted down. MDL is much more civilised.
If you like, please go to my profile and check out my rating scale. :)
I did start watching Lost You Forever but I shelved it for now because it is just too long. 70+ eps is out of my comfort zone nowadays. ;)
I just started Story of Kunning Palace and it is looking promising. :)

Thank you for your comments. I appreciate them. :)
I've watched too many dramas to have any misguided notion of an unicorn show. I always call it as I see it. :)
I hope my reviews will help readers make an informed viewing choice. I'm sure some do feel the same way as us but few would bother to put it in words. Cheers!

Review Behind Your Touch Spoiler
Same here I dropped from the halfway of first episode. Both characters are so unlikeable .
There were red flags from the start but I gave it the benefit of the doubt but the senseless killing of the young woman was the last straw. Cheers!

Thanks for your comment. I find this show amped up all the worse stereotypes and tropes for "laughs" and it was so cringey. The senseless violence was the last straw for me.

Review Not Others
Nice to see a Korean drama fan who appreciates the positives of Japanese dramas.Too often I see many generalize…
Thank you for your kind words. I totally agree with you. I'm actually a j-drama fan but it is much harder to find j-drama on steaming platforms compared to k or c-dramas. I have reviewed a number of j-dramas here and I rated most of them highly. :)

The Bollywood ending was unique, unexpected, and a complete fail. So was any scene with Victor singing.
I can't argue with that. 😂

Just read your review on Viki - Why did you give this drama an 8 there but only a 7.5 on here?
Thanks for your comment. :)
The problem with Viki is that their smallest step is 1 while MDL is 0.5. I have to make a call to either round up or down on the score when I post on both sites. Sometimes I make it clear in the review that it is 7.5 but most of the time it is not worth the bother and I just round it up. It doesn't deserve a 7. ;)

I had decidedly chosen to give this drama a skip but after reading your fabulous review I did a complete 180 and…
Thank you for your kind words. :) I suppose that is why I write these reviews. Sometimes, the show is more entertaining not because it is a good show but it is just crazy enough to go surreal. LoL
Buckle up because this will be a bumpy ride! "Enjoy!"

People always comes to the defense of Fantasy, if this drama is a creepy , psychological drama about the danger…
Yes, the inconsistency is pulling me out of immersion. That's all I'm saying.
