There are other series came before this with the same genre, but this genre is definitely the branding of LizQuen. Pinoy prime time drama series used to be intense heavy drama but this one brought a new taste of viewing habit... with the right amount of real life and fictional scenes and plot twist. Acting wise - those scenes that brought a good laugh and awkwardness are equally commendable. A must watch and can be shown to foreign audiences.. Cherie Gil and Matteo are excellent in playing their roles as Italian

The Longer It Got, The Worse It Gets
This is my first drama with this couple which I only started because I'd seen their movies.The negatives are the multiple second chances, leads became extremely childish, too many unnecessary and snail paced episodes but especially the Italian stereotype. That cringed me out the most lol.
STORY
I liked the story....at least in the first half. It started to go down at 52 and then it just completely dragged out so it was 20 episodes too many. The fact that I watched the 72 episode version didn't ease the torture.
The romance was ruined me, I couldn't care less anymore and it turned a bit too melo and mankjang-y for my taste. The only thing that made the torture somewhat watchable was the Family scenes
CAST/ACTING
I really liked the cast and their acting. The people I loved at the beginning became the most annoying towards the middle and end and the person I despised at the beginning became the most loved. Rare occurance.
MUSIC
There was only one OST. Just imagine hearing the same song multiple times in one episode and then times that by 72. The one time I wish coprlyright would mute the music lol
REWATCH VALUE
For me? Heck no! There is nothing on this planet that would make me rewatch this. This is probably better suited to Melo and Makjang lovers and die hard fans of the leads.

The length of the show is really intimidating.. have faith :)
The length of the show is intimidating, you'll need a lot of not only patience but also a lot time with this one.Actors were really good. Main lead characters had a great chemistry. Supporting actors are also entertaining. The production cost of this one must be sky high, touring not only Philippines but also Italia. Also the weddings and fiesta's are so plenty, it surely must cost a lot.
The show progresses from innocent, to sweet, to funny and adventurous, to painful reality, then to acceptance of true love.

Some parts lacks of credibility, but I understand the budget is not identical than korean dramas.
Liza Soberano is a beautiful young girl ! She is a really great actress. The couple with Enrique Gil is magical.
This drama is also very funny and appealing ! Must see !
