GR did not reach the level of expectations one had for this series ,but personally I'm really excited for the upcoming series under Gmmtv. EWB is already doing gr8, Ditto and Moonshadow are such gr8 novels and will be hopefully adapted well, haven't read Bake Love Feelings but hoping it is good and gets to show ViewMim's acting chops. Her series was criticised during it's pilot release but hoping they make necessary changes and give us a drama worthy of NamtanFilm's calibre.
Feel good for EmiBonnie. They were not in the main cast of GR , came to the sets, had a ball , didn't care about the shitty script and didn't have to worry about the series . And are now shooting for one of the most anticipated series which is an adaptation of an amazing novel (for me personally) and being directed by one of the best directors available.
And folks till the end Prim doesn't know that Bambi kissed Sasha 😂. Prim getting to know Bambi kissed Sasha would have been such a delicious plot becoz it would have actually shaken up both the couples and then to regain the trust Bambi and Sasha would have to resort to showing their bratty side and make Prim and Gorya realise that they can't stay away from their respective partners .Prim and Gorya somewhat flirting with each other to give Sasha Bambi a taste of their own medicine would have been good becoz PrimGorya together would have rattled both Bambi and Sasha.
Sasha convincing Bambi to comeback by saying things like you are being selfish and cowardly didn't sit right with me. So you are telling me Prim begging her to not leave her and make her miserable and having a serious conversation with her mom to say that she is choosing herself was not enough but Sasha's words suddenly hit her so differently that she was like "Okay lets go back " , like she forgot she told Prim that they can never be a couple again. Seems like writers just wanted a cliffhanger for the last episode and went with this.
SashaGorya as a couple are genuinely much more stable and secure than the other two and their relationship actually progressed the best. From Gorya not liking Sasha at first to FWB and then getting to know each other and then finally becoming a couple was good to watch. They actually got together so late in the series that the only way to break them up was something very serious and bringing Sasha's mom was not one of them lol.
In the interviews leading to the release of GR , NamtanFilm were asked about who are the green and red flag according to you in the series. Namtan said Gorya is a green flag but Film had a difference of opinion and said Gorya is also a red flag. I was really hoping that Gorya would actually do something bad in the series for her to be seen in a negative light. I guess Film playing Bambi must have felt her initial interactions with Gorya somewhat negative, otherwise Gorya was like a therapist to Prim, Bambi and Sasha .
Her being the one to actually bring PrimBambi together in the last episode showed how much emotional maturity she has and doesn't hold grudges against anyone. Her push/pull equation with Sasha was one of the main highlights of their relationship. Really hoped they had actually shown progressive friendship between Prim and Gorya , coz Gorya genuinely respected Prim as a director. After Ep 2 , they had a non existent relationship.
Of all the questionable things in the last episode, the one that disappointed the most was Prim's choice of clothing for the award function. Like be for real 😂.
Need to applaud Milk's acting in the last episode. The expression of hers when her mom accepted the cheque was so good. Like she knew her mom would take the cheque but she was genuinely sad when it happened, like she was secretly hoping her mom wouldn't disappoint her for once.
Looking at the pilot it seems like Namneung genuinely didn't know who Rose was and she was actually surprised to see her as Zhaojun in a student uniform . If this is how they intend to keep it , then it's a really good change from the Novel.
Just started watching "Chasing Love" and it also has 3 couples and has aired one episode. This may not be the best series but it actually has a good plot for all the couples from the first episode itself and it only has 8 episodes . Still wondering how did GR having 12 episodes and more than a year in making couldn't give justice to and proper development to every couple. Heard that Shades is the GR that we deserved , have not seen yet but very intrigued on watching it.
Bambi came back with a lot of trauma , entered Prim's life and tried to win her back and was a menace to anyone who tried to get close to Prim . Prim was adamant on not getting back together , but after hearing about Bambi's past decided to give in. After an argument Bambi decides to go back to her old self and hook up with the first girl she saw at the bar and Sasha tried to sort the situation out . Then after Bambi's meltdown , Prim tried to prioritise Bambi as she wanted to be there for her during her weak moment. Apparently Prim taking a leave for a week was such a bad thing that it totally derailed her life. Only for Bambi to say "I choose myself" lol . Prim trying to always save the relationship and being the one to apologise, the writers could have actually given her a bit of agency in this relationship. Can guarantee that once some other girl tries to flirt with Prim , Bambi will forget all the BS she talked about like they are never going to workout and go and terrorise the other girl.
The thing which made me feel really sad was Prim begging Bambi for not breaking up with her the 2nd time.
Bambi was the one who -Ghosted Prim for a year. - Kissed another girl when PrimBambi had an argument and casually lied that how could you even think that I would hurt you.
Prim is the only one who from the start has tried to save this relationship, Bambi's first instinct when something goes wrong in the relationship is to leave Prim.
Bambi always giving the reason that the work life balance will always be the issue between them is so stupid bcoz if it was always going to be an issue why the F did you try to get back with Prim in the first place.
The lack of agency of Prim in the relationship is so sad . GR has 6 Main characters , if you want to just hype one and sidetrack others , maybe don't create a series like this !!!
Sasha Gorya have been sidelined so much in the last 2 episodes that it's not even funny. I don't even know what MinPraew storyline is going for.
The way writers have actually made a mockery out of Prim's abandonment issue by not addressing it properly is going to be the blood boiling thing for me personally. Bambi has issues and it's being addressed but the seriousness of how much Bambi's doing is effecting Prim is not being served and it's so sad . Imagine being abandoned first by your father , then by your gf for not giving her enough time, then again by your gf for the 2nd time becoz she tries to spend more time with you . At this rate the one who should ending up in an asylum should be Prim .
Call me a bad soul but I so wish that Namtan's character in "The Player" as Giwi could switch places with Prim just for 5 minutes. She would end the entire writing abomination by destroying all the 6 girls to the ground and call it a day😂😂.
The scene between Prim and Min in the restaurant was really gr8 in terms of acting. The way Prim was trying not to cry in front of Min and still shedding tears was really good.
Sasha wearing what her mom suggested instead of Gorya's just seemed so off . Sasha has always been a baddy and the fact that she didn't respect Gorya as a stylish let alone as a gf is so weird. Sasha doesn't even have a single bone of affection for her mother.
The fact that Bambi will comeback after a time jump and will still have the audacity to get back with Prim , makes me think that the entire decision making power of this couple is in Bambi's hand. The most realistic ending would be Prim standing up for herself and walking away from that relationship with her dignity intact but yeah it's not happening lol.
I'll still die in the ship where Prim broke becoz of Bambi cheating on her with Sasha becoz of her trauma regarding her dad cheating on her mom and abandoning her.
Bambi saying I choose myself had mentioned cackling , like girl why the fuck did you even come back and tried to patch things up with Prim. Bambi may think she is doing good for Prim but the fact is she gave Prim two of the worst moments of her life.
And they will again patch up and hump eachother next episode like nothing happened coz Prim has zero self respect .
Then she should have communicated that to Min, all she was talking about was Bambi, how she was the most important…
She literally told Min that this is her first time taking a break and can't she just for once put herself first before the work. Min couldn't negotiate with the party that wanted to reschedule at the last moment. It's not like Prim didn't finish her work . She herself was stressed and Min being her friend atleast should know how stressed she was after how she and Sasha tried to comfort her in the previous episode. Also her saying she is only obsessed with Bambi also negates everything Prim has done for the company and makes it seem like Prim doesn't care about the company.
It really hurts me to say this but Prim actually has been reduced to a side character. She told Bambi that the vacation was not just for being with her but also becoz she wanted a break and for her not having any new creative ideas . She told Min that she never took a day off and had always thought of the company, she even tells her that can I not prioritise myself once over the company. Even after that people disregard her honesty and mere think of her as someone who is obsessed with Bambi. Bambi has an argument with Prim , she breaks up. Min has an argument with Prim, she moves out and will probably leave the company. The show doesn't give a shit about the sufferings of Prim .
The lack of flashbacks of Prim and Min's struggle to open ladybird, Min seeing Prim destroying herself the first time Bambi broke up with her and why Min fears Prim will again spiral becoz of Bambi is the main reason why Ep 10 had such a little impact . We actually have not gotten glimpses of the past of Gorya, Praew also. Only Bambi and Sasha had actually gotten a proper backstory and how they are dealing with it. Prim and Gorya merely seems like characters just to support their partners . The fact that Gorya as an individual is so strong minded but the entire series she just seems to be the person there to support Sasha doesn't sit right with me. Atleast they could have introduced her ex girlfriend who cheated on her. She was about to have agency when Kris was flirting with her and even that scene was made about how it was Sasha's masterplan. Praew always asking Min why she doesn't pay attention to her when she infact always thinks about her work is always so frustrating. If you are making a series with 6 main characters atleast respect everyone of them. ViewMim had such great arcs in UsTheSeries.
