Step by Step is the perfect title for this series. Four episodes in and it’s limping along like it’s got a sprained ankle. I can’t imagine too many office employees would come home after a stressful day at work and want to switch on and watch a show about a stressful day at work. A third of the way in and SBS is giving Check Out stiff competition for the title of the most tedious office BL I’ve ever watched. The mere threat of a further 8 lengthy episodes is just too much, I’m bailing out now.

I’m a gay guy who really loved the two episodes shown so far. It’s clearly not meant to be taken seriously, reminding me of what Hollywood used to call screwball comedies way back when. The script is fast-paced and funny and the two leads are both super-cute. Can’t wait for episode 3.
