I love a badass female lead--and a well-executed trope! A bit over the top? Completely ridiculous? Likeable characters? Count me in!

There is a lot to like here, and I rarely felt bored with slow scenes (the 10 episode format helps)... Alternatively, the pacing was a bit quick and I would have loved a couple extra episodes to see them flesh out their relationship better. However, I do love some level-headed romance, fun characters, and humour, so this has earned a top spot for me.

However, I am holding off watching the last episode and a half, because I don't want a lackluster ending to change my opinion of the show! Currently sitting at 9.5 out of 10 eps.

The chemistry between the characters was on point--which is something lacking between a lot of shows that seem to choose leads for their star power rather than their chemistry together.

My only critique plot-wise is that it's a little too perfectly symmetric and symbolic with the leads, their issues, their closure with their ex's... And the ending was a little cliche--I hate a forced cliche. I would LOVE to see a drama where the it doesn't follow the established formula, and I admit I was a little disappointed to find out the main leads weren't gay.

Can we have some romcoms where it's not so formulaic where the ML and FL will hook up, and SML and SFL are forced together, and something happens and they break up, kiss, make up/or make peace and split? Anyway, that's not a critique of this specific show, but of dramas in general.

Speaking of which, the second female lead is a bit too immature and annoying to take seriously. The male leads are great, and overall it feels like a good contrast to many romcoms out there...
