Episodes 1-9 were great.....
*Sigh*
I was all about this series until the final episode.
I loved the way the story started.....looking for the missing museum pieces. I very much enjoyed seeing so many of my favorite GMMTV actors playing their roles. Tor, Gun, Foi, Namtan, and especially Nanon and Tay Tawan. They absolutely KILLED it! (I'll be honest, Tay was never at the top of my list until this role, neither in acting nor visuals. But him as the bad guy made my jaw drop to the floor. He was definitely cast in the right role.) But all of the other actors in this show did exceptionally well also. And props to the directing and editing teams for bringing the fantasy to life. (Some people had problems with the CGI but I thought it was well done.) Oh, and the writing team had to have some extreme imagination to come up with some of these episodes.
I did have a problem with the amount of times that Dome was unconscious throughout the series. But I could live with that.
The last episode, however, was a total letdown for me. It wasn't meant to have a season 2, and I don't think it really needed one, but it did need another episode or 2 in order to wrap things up neatly. If GMMTV listens to the fans, there actually may be a season 2 though, because even the director has stated that it's up to the company, so they know what's being asked of them. But in my opinion, there are too many unanswered questions, plot holes, and open ends for episode 10 to be the finale. I am really good at filling in the blanks with my own assumptions and imagination, but not this time. I am dissatisfied. And that sucks considering how much I have raved about the acting in this series.
