Binged the first few episodes and enjoyed it went back the next night and it was a load of rubbish.
Suspend your critical faculties and binge it in one go is my advice, if you leave any time for thinking you'll be going "WUT??"

Tried it again and dropped it again, tedious. The best bits are the groups of friends chatting and that isn't enough to make me keep watching.

You should be able to edit your review and change the score top right where it shows completed there is a little drop down arrow

Ouch

This could so easily have been so much better, still worth a watch though.

Unfortunately it's more about insecurity than attractiveness to (insert gender of choice) so as you say other people showing concern has little effect.

From looking at the poster to watching the drama I thought they had changed actresses, apparently not. I found it too much of a slog to keep watching even the whole ghost angle was somehow mundane.

Not for me I'm afraid, I put off watching it for ages because I'm not a 'historical' drama fan - I like some realism in history and action dramas and they rarely deliver. This is all very pretty with some fun set pieces but evoked little to no emotion, a few guffaws at the wrong moments but not much else.

I made it to episode 6 on my first attempt back in 2021 perhaps that's why?

I couldn't remember why I dropped this so I thought I'd try it again. 2 episodes in and I'm already bored and the only character I like is the crazy celeb.

Archery as a basis for unarmed combat which is slightly less silly...
but still silly.

Well that saved me some wasted time and irritation, thanks.

I look forward to reading your reviews as they often say quite insightful things but in the style of a Meths drinking tramp doing stream of consciousness rap - a juxtaposition I find quite fascinating.

Probably should have stuck to making it some low budget inspirational schmaltz fest and left the rest out. I could have quite happily ignored it then.

Flamenco the new martial art....

I'm always a little suspicious of shows that highlight how bad violence is by entertaining their audiences with explicit violence and torture...

What on earth is this rubbish? Just why?

Mostly, it has a bias towards newer dramas because so many more people watch them these days but it means that all those '9.5 because the actors are cute' dramas tend to be much further down the list as more of us are drama fans than are actor fans.

It's often better to look at where they are on the Popularity list rather than the high score list - especially for older dramas. Many fans are invested in the score of 'their' drama rather than it's quality.
