Watchlist 2019
I'll be putting all the shows I watch in 2019 into this list. I'll also try to put a note about what I thought of each one. Probably not a full review, but at least if I liked it or not. The goal is to watch 100 shows of some sort this year. Could be movies, dramas, variety or reality shows. Let's see if I make it. :-)
-
101. Run BTS!
Korean TV Show - 2015, 10 episodes
Cute show.
-
102. Run BTS! Season 2
Korean TV Show - 2017, 46 episodes
Great show to watch in between other shows. Just good clean fun, lots of laughs, and great games! I really enjoyed it!
-
103. Secret Crushes Season 2
Korean Drama - 2016, 23 episodes
Easy watch...whole series takes a little over an hour to watch. Was a bit frustrated with the way it ended though to be honest.
-
104. She Was Pretty
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
I enjoyed this drama. It has some issues, but it's cute overall.
-
105. She's Dating the Gangster
Filipino Movie - 2014
Fun and sweet. Interesting plot too.
-
106. SJ Returns Season 3
Korean TV Show - 2019, 54 episodes
I always need more SUJU in my life! They are always so much fun to watch!
-
107. Soul Plate
Korean Drama - 2019, 6 episodes
I enjoyed this series, but the last episode was a bit odd to me. Worth watching though.
-
108. Super Junior Full House
Korean TV Show - 2006, 14 episodes
Cute, but no subs and a bit difficult to follow at times. Fun to watch though.
-
109. SuperM: The Beginning
Korean TV Show - 2019, 2 episodes
Loved watching the start of this group. I hope they put out more content like this.
-
110. Takane to Hana
Japanese Drama - 2019, 8 episodes
A really cute show. I enjoyed it a lot. I thought there would be a major ick factor with this drama, but they tell the story well without making that part of the story an issue. Since there is a major age gap, it's not so much a romance as it is a story of people learning how to be together for a romantic relationship that will happen later. You'll understand what I mean if you watch the show.
-
111. Terius Behind Me
Korean Drama - 2018, 32 episodes
A good show. All of the actors/actresses do a great job. Some of the characters are really fun and the twists in the show were well done. I was/am seriously annoyed with the lack of discipline for the children in the show. I suppose they are supposed to be "funny", but their behavior was not at all to me. Fortunately, they are not the thrust of the show, but that is the reason for the low score.
-
112. The Barber of Seville
Korean TV Show - 2019, 10 episodes
Loved this show so much. Seriously, it was directly responsible for me making not just one but TWO hair appointments. HA HA!
-
113. The Beauty Inside
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
I liked it better than the movie in many ways, but it's lacking something overall. Some strange holes are in it, but they are hard to explain. The secondary characters are awesome and the people she transforms into are fantastic. It's slow in places and makes little sense in some of the decisions of the characters. Glad I watched it, but it's not going to be one of my top dramas.
-
114. The Breakup Playlist
Filipino Movie - 2015
Cute movie. I liked the actors a lot.
-
115. The Cravings
Korean Drama - 2013, 6 episodes
Loved the recipes at the end of each episode. The story was...well...pretty much missing.
-
116. The Dude in Me
Korean Movie - 2019
The story is ok and the acting is good, but this has so much foul language in it that it reminded me of the stuff that made me pretty much quit watching US shows. Not a fan of this one.
-
117. The Fan
Korean TV Show - 2018, 12 episodes
My favorite didn't win, but it was still a good show.
-
118. The Secret Life of My Secretary
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
I really enjoyed this show. The ML and FL are a lot of fun to watch together. They have great chemistry. The 2ML is great too and you get to like him since he's not after the FL. :-) The 2FL was a really good actress, but for me a super annoying character. I literally could not watch many of her scenes because of the way they made her talk and act. Many people liked the character, but it was just to much for me.
-
119. Thirty but Seventeen
Korean Drama - 2018, 32 episodes
Such a good show! Sweet and pretty much angst free!
-
120. Top Management
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
I really liked it, but the ending felt strange. Like it needed a few more minutes to finish the story. I was a bit confused.
-
121. Trace of the Hand
Korean Drama - 2017, 17 episodes
I liked the lead actor and actress, but the show ends a bit oddly I thought. Maybe I need to rewatch the last episode.
-
122. Twenty Again
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
This show has a very slow start but if you hang in there about episode 4 it starts to hit it's stride and get's rather addictive.. Some of the best parts are when the FL makes friends with the students. The scenes where she was working with them on various things were some of my favorites. I especially enjoyed the scenes of her "dates" with the classmates. The last episode is really good too.
-
123. Ugly Duckling Series: Boy's Paradise
Thai Drama - 2015, 9 episodes
Odd on so many levels.
-
124. Ugly Duckling Series: Don't
Thai Drama - 2015, 7 episodes
Of the first three I liked this one the best, but it also had maybe the most ridiculous starting point.
-
125. Ugly Duckling Series: Perfect Match
Thai Drama - 2015, 9 episodes
Decent, but a bit slow. I ended up fast forwarding quite a bit of the last 3 episodes because I just wanted to see the happy ending.
-
126. Ugly Duckling Series: Pity Girl
Thai Drama - 2015, 5 episodes
A bit better than the first season, but still slow at times. I'm beginning to think these seasons could be made in about 3-4 episodes tops.
-
127. UNDER19
Korean TV Show - 2018, 14 episodes
Loved this show...so much talent. But the eliminations were brutal!
-
128. Urban Cops : KCSI
Korean TV Show - 2019, 10 episodes
I really enjoyed this show. It was so interesting to see the inner working of the Korean CSI department. I liked all the actors as well as the all the actual police officers. It was just a solid show.
-
129. Wait, My Youth
Chinese Drama - 2019, 24 episodes
I really really liked this drama. There was a bit of angst toward the end that I could have done without, but there's a happy ending so that's ok...though the last scene seems a little odd to me. Not bad, as it offered a way to review the story, but still...a bit odd to me.
-
130. Wanna City
Korean TV Show - 2017, 4 episodes
I'm a sucker for these kinds of variety shows.
-
131. Wanna One Go Season 2: Zero Base
Korean TV Show - 2017, 8 episodes
So fun!
-
132. Watashi ni Unmei no Koi Nante Arienaitte Omotteta
Japanese Special - 2016, 1 episode
Very Cute Movie. I didn't even ff through any of it. :-)
-
133. Well-Intended Love
Chinese Drama - 2019, 20 episodes
Such a good show. Not as angsty as the episode descriptions make it seem. It's got some surprising twists and turns too. The characters are great and you come to love the ones you didn't think you would and cheer for them too.
-
134. When the Camellia Blooms
Korean Drama - 2019, 40 episodes
Good acting, good writing, but not my cup of tea. I have a review of this show under the "review" tab, if you want to know more.
-
135. Why Not? The Dancer
Korean TV Show - 2018, 8 episodes
I enjoyed this show and binged it in a day. The only issue I had with it was that NCT Dream's JiSung was shown to be the 4th member of the Why Not Team (the maknae), but they never (at least as shown on camera) included him in any of the discussions or planning or even the performance of the final choreography that was the central part of the show. It was odd because he was with them for nearly everything else (classes, bowling with the celeb they would be choreographing for, eating, sightseeing, etc). I'm sure they were not being mean or anything, because of his age and the laws that govern minors, there were some real restrictions on JiSung's time as to when he could work/film. Also, being so young, he wasn't as experienced as the other three in choreography, but you would think he would have at least have been in the performance video they made to show the final product off...it just seemed odd.
-
136. Wind-Bell
Korean Drama - 2019, 10 episodes
Not as lighthearted as most mini-dramas.
-
137. Wonderland
Korean TV Show - 2019, 4 episodes
I love these kinds of variety shows. This one was especially fun because I watched the group form on Under Nineteen so it's a continuation of that story. Good stuff!
-
138. You're My Boss
Filipino Movie - 2015
Sweet movie. Little slow at first, but cute.
