A Perfect Match (2025)

9/10 Short episodes

9/10 Short episodes
I feel a lot of the story is missing, but it is pretty good. It feels like someone edited out a lot of the content and we've been given a shortened version. Maybe the rest of the show got lost?
Things happen pretty fast or it is time jumping. There are only 10 episodes and I can't find anywhere that there might be more. The last one leaves you hanging without finishing the story. It's not a cliffhanger either. It's a shame because I think the actors are being cheated as well as the audience. ! really would have like the characters to have been built up more. I like the actors that were chosen.

Gran: You a whore?
Xiao Nan: No....
[Cut to Xiao Nan, who's now having rampant, rambunctious sex with Boss.]

[Lingering shots of Xiao Nan showering. Ummmm…. Aaaaaaaaabs.]
[Lather. Rinse. Repeat.]

Scene 9.
[Tennis match. Someone wins.]
[The villain creates a conflict. Let’s see, he pretends to be injured so that the boss can be jealous?]
[Boss jealous.]
[Lingering shots of... ]
Writers: Wait. What the fuck? Where's the shower scene? What's going on?
Director's Note: I think we've had enough showering, don't you?
Writers: Aaaaaabs... so.. fucking... not!

Scene 10.
[The leads reconcile.]
[Xiao Nan becomes a wife and a cook.]
[The kid's still a brat.]
[Gran's a bit useless.]
[Beach trip. Shirtless frolicking. Ummmm... Aaaaaaaaabs.]
[Product placement.]
[They all live happily ever after... in a surprisingly tiny flat.]
Note from the Producers: What?!?!? That's it? The final scene is not of the boys showering together? After all this fluffing, you won't even finish us off?

Verdict:
This is one of the worst shows I have ever seen. I loved it.
