Self sabotagists in edgynonsenseland
Started strong, after first 2 episodes I thought it may be something great. But then, it got retarded, and the longer it went on, the dumber the story got.
Fl and ml are both complete self-sabotaging morons. FL doesn't think things through and then regrets, rinse and repeat. She has only two moods, angry and shouting and then regretful and crying. First she denies ml surgery, screams at him, destroys his meds, even hits him in the head and then is like surprised pikachu "wHaT dO yoU mEaN hE'S goNNa dIE!?!". The ml, no better, starts off as a dedicated doctor who just wanted a life saving surgery but turns out it was just a joke, he's as crazy as her and his goal is to die on surgery table killed by his apprentice.
The entire story is them making each other's lives harder while actually caring about each other, but not being able to express it because of mental illness and poor writing.
The other characters are non existent. FL has two sidekicks who enable her and go on with her idiotic actions while bitching and moaning and then doing nothing about it. ML has a female sidekick who has more or less the same role but she's less obnoxious about it. The police officer investigating the case is dumb as brick and disgusting, and gangsters look and act like 1980's japanese yakuza.
The drama doesn't seem to know what it wants to be. Does it want to be an edgy black comedy, or tearjerker melodrama? It tries both, switching from one to another from scene to scene, but excels at neither, and the contrast is jarring.
The french insert song is pretty nice tho. It's called "dis-moi, je t'aime" just in case you wondered.
