Not My Cup of Tea
Despite the many positive reviews and the fact that it extended up to 3 seasons, this show was just not my cup of tea.
I am a sucker for mystery, detective shows. Although I wasn’t really convinced when I read the synopsis, the story that blends mystery, detective, and supernatural beings was worth giving a try. However, I ended up finding myself getting bored mainly because it was too slow and there was too much back and forth dialogue for my taste. The mystery cases presented in this drama also did not get me hooked.
The actors did not help either. In terms of acting, I’m pretty sure they are great actors. Sadly, I just don’t find their characters interesting. However, I have to say the production quality, especially the makeup and outfits, were great though!
All in all, I wouldn’t say this drama is bad. It’s just not my cup of tea. There’s too little thrill, adrenaline, build up, romance (even a subtle one), and too strange of a mystery for my taste.
