There shouldn’t be a rating until after the drama has aired its finale. This drama would have scored very high anyway but dramas like this gets a benefit while other dramas that carried a low rating from start to finish is at a disadvantage. The ratings before it’s done does influence
wait for 800m. will be released (probably) next month
Hmmm. This “idol drama” term is used so loosely. When it comes to Xu Kai dramas, surprisingly even though he is not the one picking every role due to his agency demands on artists, I find his roles somehow are not what I think of “idol romances”. Even though requirement is romance, his roles go beyond romance, were it not so, his characters would never have stood the test of time among his fanbase. Instead. I find every character despite limited screen time they are rich, complex, and full of layers , emotionally and intellectually, some more than others. Even a youth drama like FIYM, his character is not shallow. Xu Kai has not done those kinds of so called “idol romances”that are super popular or else he managed to take a role and try to make it more. It is the reason Fuca Fuheng became an iconic role. It is because Xu Kai interpretation of the character. Even though his dramas are label as idol romances, his characters are not. He seems to me an actor not pushing himself to ride any wave of popularity but one who wants to pursue characters with substance and he’s already done that but now he wants to do more of it. So I believe he will not lose fans by doing more realistic roles because it had always been his characters that drew his fans to him.
For a drama of this immense popularity, there ought to be a few thousand more user ratings, should be closer to 50% of total watchers. That could swing it one way or other. 37% of currently watching have not completed watching.
Blame MDL. They have own secret algorithms. In the end MDL will always make data patterns fit to the final score so you can’t see evolution. I saw that happened blatantly for a certain dramas my first time I tracked their daily data what little they share. It was so obvious it’s ultimately judged by them just like at work when management puts their own judgments on the forecasts that started out with raw data that is usually overstated by managers. But this dramas will end on very high note no matter what. It is reflected in the reviews mostly excellent.
It’s actually unusual for a very strong rating since day 1 to finale to drop after finale on MDL. On Douban yes it’s common but not MDL when it’s been rock solid. Something up with the ratings. Strong ratings entire airing period are usually stable unlike dramas below 8.5 may still fluctuate.
Why did this drama only score 6.6 on Douban?? I've only seen positive comments about it. I'm on episode 10 and…
Douban opened at strong 6.8. More reviews coming in on MDL here indicating a smaller segment of the audience didn’t like the latter episodes as much as the earlier ones. I have a feeling the MDL score will drop to 9.0 because it should normally be as much as 0.3 below the completed. The currently watching is still higher than the completed which is abnormal for a drama with rating above 8.5 so if will be interesting to see if just a delay or that the score may drop further.
Seriously? he checked if girls are on their periods? But girls and women have periods since dawn of the ages And know how to take care of themselves in that regards.
It’s true. The last ten episodes were total nonsense. The main leads weren’t even together, so I lost interest…
What you said reveal that you don’t need a lot of screen time to make a big impact as long as the character is interesting and the actor can bring it to life in compelling way.
The few comments about haters imo have never really seen true hater comments and the obvious strategies employed. The comments for this drama are 99% positive reflecting the exceptional score.
I think I’m going crazy but do both Changyu and Qianqian have really large eye balls? In the scene where Qianqian…
Tian Xi Wei has super size eyes that then get magnified in close ups. Her last drama the ML asked her why her eyes are so big to which she replied yours are big too. That director told both of them to try not to widen their eyes otherwise it will look strange on screen. I supposed there are advantages and disadvantages to having large eyes.
So what was the ultimate significance of her mother's hair pin? I kept thinking that was goin to turn out to some…
Your instincts are right. These things usually carry significance but not in this drama. They probably couldn’t use it. The story was too busy to fit this in too.
