Episode 12 is actually so fxcking stupid. Spoilers to follow:EDIT: this was the finale?! Damn. The first half…
I've been loving this show so far but this episode is just plain stupid. None of the audience gives a fxck about the grandmother or Kirk. Just kill them both off. Why did Sam go back within like 10 minutes?! Sam has NO reason to go back to the Witch.
Also why aren't HER FRIENDS with her?? Why are they there for Mon and not for Sam?! They should've been at the house when Sam and Mon left the Witches' house at the end of the last episode!!! Why weren't they there?! I don't understand why you wouldn't be there for Sam and Mon as moral support. They shoulda gone to the Witch's house too! Sam needs to know and remember she has OTHER PEOPLE. She doesn't NEED her manipulating grandwitch.
This episode is just unnecessary drama and it's absolutely boring.
The way so many straight dramas don't need kiss scenes to be a straight romance, but people are saying bls to have kiss scenes to prove it's a bl. In my opinion, it was very obvious how they felt for each other; it was so obvious the chemistry between them; it was obvious they were together throughout the entirity of the finale. A kiss scene wasn't needed.
Y'all I had this drama all wrong! I thought it was about the Painter and the Bodyguard or Poly, but it's the Painter and the Crown Prince?!?! I swear all the teasers showed the Bodyguard way more than the CP! This was cute and I hope there's a season two when Junhee (the painter) has finished his enlistment. The OST is really nice too.
Only watched one episode but it feels very Hannah Montana meets Devil Wears Prada. I'm interested in how the show progresses but it's definitely a quality level below your typical BL show (which doesn't surprise me because misogyny and BLs have had decades to get to the level they are now whereas Sapphic dramas are still very very much underproduced and still producing stories that BL grew out of 10+ years ago).
If Villain, WHY HOT?! I'm sorry, I'ma defend the main villain til I go to the grave. You can NOT expect me to root for Vincenzo (at all) when the villain is THAT.
I mean... I rated it a 7 and that was before I found out the crap going on with the people involved with the show. It's really good until the very last ep: the final episode is such a MESS. Woulda been an easy 8 or 9 if the finale episode had been better.
Wow they really fumbled the bag on this finale.
Also why aren't HER FRIENDS with her?? Why are they there for Mon and not for Sam?! They should've been at the house when Sam and Mon left the Witches' house at the end of the last episode!!! Why weren't they there?! I don't understand why you wouldn't be there for Sam and Mon as moral support. They shoulda gone to the Witch's house too! Sam needs to know and remember she has OTHER PEOPLE. She doesn't NEED her manipulating grandwitch.

EDIT: this was the finale?! Damn. The first half of this episode was acting like a penultimate episode. What a disappointing finale.
