Struggling… as in bored or struggling with watching them cause they weren’t good or something else ?
Thank you @camellalspir. I thought it was only me that found these last 2 episodes "off". The content didn't seem consistent, and usually every episode has a bit of "lightness" to help us through whether its Ah Fei doing his guileless humour, some nasty women getting their comeuppance or the interaction between the leads but hey ho lets see what the next 2 episodes bring. I have faith.
In the novel, LBY had someone keep an eye on her, because he knew she always gets in trouble, and so he always…
Thanks for saying what is in the novel and what's not. I read that the author was the consultant along with the 2 scriptwriters as its a specialist skill and she said she was pleased with what they did with the script.
Also some actress talking how cold weather was that day, and Lusi was long time in cold river ❤️😭https://twitter.com/wonwoncity/status/1552831783384653825?t=deV8PH8Bh75vm4VjqQwS3g&s=19
Good on her for doing her own stunt work. Respect to her craft.
I'm hoping that Ep 33-34 will be more engaging and that this was a blip. It felt we had hit still water - the dead calm before the storm? Especially since Ep 30 was a stunner.
Hokay... More of my 2 cents. Episodes 29-30. https://40somethingahjumma.substack.com/p/love-like-the-galaxy-2022-episodes-cb7Thanks…
@dramaAjumma I so look forward to your eloquent summaries. I too think LlTG is about relationships, family and intimate relationships. In healthy family relationships, people trust and rely on each other for support, love, affection and warmth. Families often share common goals and work together to reach their purpose. We are witnessing in each episode examples of when this is working and when its not. This is all predicated on a foundation of trust. Adults feel secure and loved when they have strong and positive family relationships built on on quality time, communication, teamwork and appreciation of each other. We can see where the gaps in the imperial family have arisen as many members do not share a common purpose with their own agendas. The abandonment that CSS feels is because she does not have that foundation of trust,quality time,communication and purpose from her most formative years. Abandonment leads to chronic stress and fear (CSS food deprivation and control) and we can see issues of this in Third Princess who was left to be brought up by her Third Aunt as her parents went off to war campaigns (like CSS parents) Of course I'm not excusing negative behaviours as they play out but often it has a root somewhere in the past. PS: Loved your comment that Third Prince is a chip off Consort Yue or... the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I wonder if there is a Chinese saying for this? Once again thanks for your summaries which are a joy to read.
