“Lover Merman” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)

Frankly, I am not sure how I sat through this miscue. It is an inferior story with pedestrian acting. There I said it and am glad I did. I just do not know when these sappy BLs will end. This is yet another in a L-O-N-G line of them. What saved this series from being on my Worst List is the cinematography. The water scenes are exceptional, but there are not nearly enough of them. If you are going to have a story about mermen, how about showing more of them and their communion? Also, I like the idea that mermen could live on land and become a part of regular human society. The notion that during the full moon, mermen HAD to go back into the ocean to cleanse themselves of their ‘toxins’ was quite intriguing, and I found that to be a nice twist to the story. Further, one figure, and a minor one at that, altogether makes this series worth watching, overall, for the depth of his characterization and his intense understanding of the persona he was portraying.

“Me and Who” Series Review (Ep.4 to 10)

It’s wonderful seeing a series where the two main leads not only start off on fairly equal mental (not financial) footing, but also stand beside each other through everything from beginning to end. Me and Who, adapted from the web novel by wickedwish_, takes that idea and spins it into a heartfelt romantic comedy packed with humor, charm, and surprising emotional depth.

“The Wicked Game” Series Review (Ep.4 to 10)

Love is a lens that both blinds and reveals, obscuring the flaws we can’t bear to see while magnifying the truths we’re afraid to face. It’s one of the most life-changing human emotions we experience, powerful enough to save, destroy, or rewrite us entirely. Few series capture that duality quite like The Wicked Game.

“That Summer” Series Review (Ep.3 to 10)

Love writes its own story. No one journey looks the same, yet every heart chases some version of a happily ever after, whether it lasts a lifetime or becomes a memory we carry with us. That Summer leans heavily into this theme, weaving together several lives whose paths cross on an island shaped by grief, healing, and the unexpected ways love finds us.
