Like a romance sampler - a little bit of every type of romance all in the one drama.

Just a simple romance show. Nothing special about it, but you can lose yourself in it for a few hours.

Another user mentioned that an "enjoyment" rating would be a good addition to this site. I agree. This show wasn't really good, but I enjoyed it and don't exactly regret spending 16hrs of my life on it. (Although the music became really repetitive and grating.)

The show is all over the place. Manipulation, mental health issues, trauma and phobias, hot-and-cold lovers, poor-meets-rich, first loves, exes that aren't over each other yet, secret pasts, workaholics, poor life choices... the writers sort of just grabbed a bit of everything they had in their cupboard and threw it in a pot. But every individual element was done pretty well. I especially liked the realistic portrayels of phobias and traumatic flashbacks, and the on-going effects they have on a person.

However, I wish this wasn't is a romance. It would be a hilarious show, where the rich egomaniac keeps trying to win a girls heart in order to get her to take back her job, while she just continues on with her life and shuts him down each time - without falling for his persistent harassment.

Can someone make this show, but leave out the weak willed romance?
