On The Legend of Ba Qing Jul 13, 2020
This one has had more drama behind the camera than the drama itself. The superstar lead actress unceremoniously fell from grace and is just slowly returning from her pariah status. The male lead was accused, replaced in his role and then acquitted. Then one of the secondary male leads was once the fiance of the FL. An absolute shitshow altogether. I still hope this sees the light one day. For PXR's sake and also it would be a damn shame if the 70 million spent on production is wasted although half of that was probably FBB's talent fee.
On My Roommate Is a Detective Jul 13, 2020
Bai Youning definitely did not endear herself in the beginning but she did grow and improve as the drama progressed. I would have preferred they had done away with the romance and stayed as a story of a trio of crime solving colleagues but I guess it was a natural progression for Lu Yao and Bai Youning to become lovers. I watched Detective L after this but had to drop it. That was a bit too artsy and avant garde for my taste. It was like some hipster French movie. This one is a lot more straightforward but somewhat simplistic. I am hoping for season 2.

Title Mr Honesty
If people who complain about Chinese modern dramas were truly diligent and observant then they'd find out dramas like All Is Well or Betty Sun's recent drama do exists but then since international fans don't bother with them they'd rather go watch a currently airing drama that's popular abroad that has a generic and overused plot and then complain about how unoriginal they are.

This is weird. I don't know why some people even bother. It's written there clearly this is a CEO and assistant…
It's the same criticism rehash over and over. And no there are other types of CEO dramas and I do see different characterizations. The recent ones I watched like Love Designer and My Love Enlighten Me do not have the same feel and their plotlines are certainly not the same. As I said before there are other modern dramas but obviously there not as popular. I think it would be disingenuous to assume that CEO and high school dramas are all that is to it in Chinese entertainment because there the only that have a following abroad. I'm pretty sure if you'd ask a Chinese person a good modern drama to recommend it would be much more varied than some people assume.

Title Mr Honesty
Chinese directors should really stick to historical dramas..they seriously suck when it comes to modern dramas.…
This is weird. I don't know why some people even bother. It's written there clearly this is a CEO and assistant drama. I'd expect anyone who don't watch this kind of genre to pass up instead of sharing "valuable" wisdom. This plot and youth dramas are pretty much staple in Chinese entertainment and are hits internationally. The other modern dramas don't get far from Chinese borders.

Title Mr Honesty
I'm loving this. First drama in a long time where I've watch episodes as soons as it airs. Their relationship is evolving nicely. Nothing worse than watching a couple get together quickly and then watching multiple breakups.

This is one drama I want to erase from my memory if possible. From the beginning till the end there was no happiness…
Such a superficial remark but then again the wooly eyed sheep who only want to see happiness will never ever understand and appreciate this kind of thought provoking drama.
On Bloody Romance Jun 28, 2020
When an absurd and ridiculous drama like Romance of Tiger and Rose gets an 8.7 and this gets 8.0 you know something is amiss. This drama is an absolute gem. This is the darkest and most depressing drama I've seen but in the end it leaves you appreciating and thinking how precious life is no matter how banal it might be. It requires a bit more subtlety to appreciate this kind of drama. If your the type that enjoy fleeting emotions, bratty acting and Superwoman type FL you will never understand this drama. The FL is quiet, loyal and has an unbending spirit.

Title Court Lady
If anything will make this series a let down it is Yu Zheng's directing, NOT Li Yitong's acting, which has oddly…
She was flawless in Bloody Romance. Her best performance yet. The problem though is she is picking unsuitable roles. She plays darker roles to the hilt. She should go back to that. I could not even finish Sword Dynasty and that also had Li Xian in it.
On Tan Jian Ci Jun 28, 2020
Person Tan Jian Ci
I still remember the first time I saw him in Secrets of the Three Kingdoms as Cao Pi and was wowed by his acting. This guy can act. His delivery and nuance expressions are top notch. He is an idol but you never see him in an idol drama.

What do i do with this drama. I love it so much but its too much for me. Its soo good and yet soo depressing all…
I stopped watching it after Ruyi becomes empress. Until now I've never had the heart to continue. I did watch the clip how Wei Yanwan ended https://youtu.be/-rCT2Wm3wWQ
On Chen Yu Qi Jun 28, 2020
Person Chen Yu Qi
What kind of potion did Yukee Chen use she got to star opposite Li Yifeng, Qu Xiao, Luo Yunxi and Wang Yibo on her dramas.
On You Are My Glory Jun 28, 2020
Yang Yang in another gaming and Gu Man drama? I'm in. He is honestly the perfect e-sport ML along with Li Xian and Wang Yibo. I read he would also have been Han Shang Yan but he choose to be Ye Xiu. I think if he had done Go Go Squid he probably would not have accepted this drama.
On The Rose Jun 28, 2020
Title The Rose
What only 7.1 for a thought provoking and well acted drama? This is not your typical run of the mill drama that you forget as soon as it ends. The OST is still stuck in my head after all these years and is on my Mandarin song playlist on Spotify. My most favorite character here is Fu Rong, I love how nonchalant and practical she is. I love her aristocratic arrogance. Nothing perturbs her until she meets that manga creator.
On The Romance of Tiger and Rose Jun 27, 2020
There are a lot of underrated dramas out there likewise there also dramas that defy sanity for it to be rated so highly. This is one of those dramas. If lead couple chemistry is the only criteria then I admit 9's would not be unusual. I suppose since this is a romcom masquerading as wuxia nobody bothered with the silly plot and the FL's manic and outrageous behavior. Her strategies are utter fail most of the time and it just brush off as being cute. For someone who is actually privy to future events she cannot actually do anything rational or appropriate. Success or failure is literally a Russian Roulette with a fully loaded gun minus 1 bullet. I spent the entire time waiting to see where her outlandish and illogical solutions will lead to.
On Legend of Awakening Jun 27, 2020
Despite its flaws this is still a very good watch. One can always complain about the acting of the leads but overall this has a very compelling story and is one of better recent wuxia dramas. My favorites for this half of the year are Handsome Siblings and Love a Lifetime.
On The Romance of Tiger and Rose Jun 27, 2020
Officially one of the most overrated dramas ever PERIOD! I need to repeat that again because I actually posted the same thing a while ago. I should have stop watching at episode 12 when ZLS schizophrenic, overbearing and know-it-all character was already getting on my nerve. What an atrocious trainwreck ending! I really need to remind myself never to get caught in the hype. I think getting 8 is already an overreach for this silly drama.

I just finished this drama, unfortunately it was not on youtube and soo many thoughts I couldn't comment so I…
Yup better than Go Go Squid as I'm watching it nearing its end. A lot of frustrations but the growth, trials, and hard choices the characters especially the leads had to go through to achieve their goals was beautiful to see. A solid 8.5+ for me.
On Gank Your Heart Jun 26, 2020
Can I have another drama with Wang Yibo and Wang Zi Xuan or as I'd like to call them WangWang couple. I don't know if that's a thing. They really have nice chemistry which is something I never see often in dramas. There usually plot driven and or loaded with skinships to elevate the pairing. There is not much overt romance here honestly but their interactions are beautiful to watch. WZX has genuine sparkle in her eye for WYB. Not that surprising since WYB is very handsome but it's nice to see real admiration in a drama. Overall a great looking and well matched couple.

At first I dropped this because I couldn’t stand the FL. I’ve just finished the drama now and I’m so glad…
The cars, the fashion, the technology everything is a big mess in this drama. This is like a mishmash of China from the end of the Qing to the foundation of the PRC. In the future I think Chinese dramas will have 90's teens on their tablets and phones.
