Most Chinese dramas that make it onto the international platform are generally good in the hygiene factors: good cast with good looks and acting skills, beautiful costumes, beautiful backdrop. But when it comes to the story, more creativity and originality are needed and more thoughts need to be put into the development of the story.

This drama is entertaining but the story is very average with all the regurgitated themes: blocking the sword for the lovers, time travel, falling in love with a feather headed girl because she is different, triangle love, ditto, ditto. Story lacks originality. And Zhao Lusi's image seems to be fixated as a feather headed girl in time travel dramas, which is not necessary a good thing.

As a comedy and fairytale, I guess it is still worth watching if you are short on other things to do. Also, if you are a fan of Xiao Zhan and are satisfied with just enjoying his good looks and a bit of laughter, this is still a good drama to follow. Afterall, series 1 and 2 total to 42 episodes of about 20 minutes, which makes it only the equivalent of about 18 episodes with the regular length of most dramas.
