Yeah hear you... bad endings always mess me up as well. Now the ending to The Eight is exactly how a drama should end. After watching that last night, I feel cleansed and it lifted me out of my slump!
Never seen this site btw... is it good?

LMAO - that is really funny - where did you see that?

Its actually really good... the "plot holes" or stuff that doesn't make sense actually does. Hope you enjoy it.

Try webnovels.

Not sure how to describe it cause its not really a romance but I just finished The Eight and it was pretty awesome. The ending was superb.

Now this is how a drama should come to a close! I expect ratings to climb post this strong finish! Bravo!!!

Yeah I don’t have high hopes we see much of that.

Heheh... its in good fun, not meant to offend die hard fans...

I don't think Nalan Yue is sad enough that his baby died.

Yes indeed, I like slightly dark shows and dark comedies most of all. Sadly only the Westerners do those well. Other than that though the only Western ones I like are very similar to Asian drama mini-series like Breaking Bad or Musketeerss and not the episodic American shows that can go on forever with no ending. Some c-dramas have become almost episodic (My Roomate is a Detective) which I really don't like.

I decided to start Why Women Kill which is a dark comedy I have been saving. I love dark comedies and this is by the same producer of my all time favorite Desperate Housewives.

Seriously I can tell he is sucking in his belly button (how many times has my pilates coach drilled that into me?) and sticking his chest out to try to not look chubby and fight the unflattering effect of gravity on excess weight in the middle section. The hands on the waist provides some extra lift. I was rolling with laughter everytime he did that but notice in the later episodes he stopped because the hard work of being on set melted some pounds away.

[Sorry - I am just being obnoxious.... I tried to ignore this for days but I finally could not resist.]

Ugh, I am in a slump after this. Can't watch anything else.

Indeed there may have been other ways, they chose the harshest one.

They just hired him 1-2 weeks ago. I am sure it will take time but notice they translate everything into English now since they are going after international subscribers.

iQiyi is now competing with Netflix in Asia for international subscribers. They even just poached Netflix's Asia boss. There is almost zero chance they would license their exclusive content to Netflix from now on.

LOL - smart - it never occured to me to google.

Yeah that whole thing didn't sit well with me either but I accept that leaving him ultimately leaves open the possibilty of usurping the throne. And his family and Suxuan has already sacrificed so much to keep Ai di alive all this time, they cannot do it endlessly. Qingci is supposedly dying anyway and Suxuan has no more martial arts neither of them are in a position to continue to protect Ai di. It is a ruthless decision and a sad one. The only sustainable alternative may have been to restore him to the throne but that may have been a bloody path forward and Ai di would have to be willing to commit fraticide. Nonetheless, I think there is no justice in this outcome making this a rather sad wuxia because their whole quest to begin with was to protect Ai di and they left a weak emperor on the throne in the end. A lot of lives were sacrificed for nothing.

It’s true that he is not a master of a profession but he is the holder and thus their leader so the reason to ban marriage is to prevent imbalance power still holds no? I would say any master married to the holder is much more powerful than all the rest. But that said, did they actually get married? I mean was the ceremony completed?

Indeed but until then all rules either apply or all rules don't apply...
