Better Days (2020) Episode 1

Episode 1 didn't disappoint. At the onset, the plot/storyline was well established. It's about rekindling childhood friendship, confronting daddy issues, and discovering oneself as a vlogger, chef, and maybe even as a lover. Script was natural and realistic. For newbies, Benedix and Chesther were fine in terms of acting. They appeal differently but both of them are cute. And they seemed to complement each other. It's too early to judge their chemistry but their connection looked promising. Audio-visuals were mostly ok. It's a well-made pilot episode. I especially liked the presentation of Filipino cuisines and how they're cooked (I miss Filipino food!). I don't know if this series has an OST but I hope it has. Given all these, I'm definitely looking forward to next week's episode.
