Going into this year end review, I wasn’t nearly as enthusiastic as I was last year. I can’t pinpoint why, other than perhaps I simply wrote so much I wore myself out. All my drama writing in the 365 days since the 2010 year end review did make my fingers consider going on strike. My brain wasn’t that far behind either. I convinced myself that everyone already knows what I think about the dramas I watched, so why bother writing more. It was only later that I conceded the redundancy argument was really a smokescreen for my laziness at play, so my gunner personality took over and evicted the striking fingers and brain from Occupy The Bed and made them get back to work. After much coffee and lots of random introspection, I managed to produce a year end review that has a lot of words. I make no promises any of it strings together into a coherent sentence.

I think maybe I should rescind what I said about Best Love for sure having a rainbows and unicorns ending. It’s what I want, it’s what would make most narrative sense, but I’m starting to get a pit of worry … Continue reading
This episode was so quiet and low-key, which stands out especially in stark contrast to the typical mile-a-minute narrative progression we’ve been getting in each preceding episode of Best Love (The Greatest Love). But it was a completely mellow episode like this that … Continue reading
As much as I enjoy watching a Hong Sisters drama, even the ones I liked tended to go downhill in the second half, some rather precipitously. I’ve been praying that Best Love (The Greatest Love) might end that trend for … Continue reading
Okay, time to change gears and stop obsessing about a pair of lying liars and turn my attention to a pair of heart-crossed stars lovers. The Hong Sisters have thrown so many little nuggets of cuteness into Best Love that … Continue reading
Simply loving two out of the six May dramas is already leaving me woefully neglecting one on behalf of the other. Best Love continues to roll in the awesome, but having the OTP issues being external rather than internal leaves … Continue reading
