Thanks dear. I live here for a bit hahaha

Oh its hard to say dear. I think TV will be a wider audience but they can only get money from advertisements and not the audience whilst for streaming platforms, they can get money from the audience because they pay VIP prices to watch the dramas or pay for the advance viewing. Also many dramas after they are shown on these platforms will then get sold to be on TV channels later too. I think it might depend on which TV station gets it (how much they pay for it) and what kind of a drama is it. I am not great with chinese stats maybe some other fans are better at this. Its just an observation on my part. :)

It depends on whether the tv channels acquired the drama. So Shen Li was shown on Hunan and best choice ever was also on a tv channel. They are then also exclusively shown on wetv, iqiyi or youku depending on the rights acquired by the service. It is usually rarer they are shown by more than one streaming platforms. Some dramas are exclusive to TV and those are usually propaganda driven. And the TV channels will usually be showing them slowly, they will not have VIP advance viewings and their end dates will usually be later.

Agree, I try to rate ones that I like too. But I suppose its also fair that some people do rate those they dont like even if they are not haters.. but yeah those that rate and dont watch sigh... what to say. Actually I think Liying, Lusi and Yang Zi's pages also have trolls.... so we just stay positive :) I haven't rated this one either.. and I agree that episode 13 and 14 are a better especially on the editing and/or directing.

Yes, A Lai is. And I like this pair.. I agree abt the aesthetics. :)

yarya is not a fan of anyone. She/He is a troll. comments are left to attack lots of different actresses. I think the ratings is also because the start of the drama is a bit different from what people expected from the hype. I don't think its only because of the haters because lots of good dramas also have lots of antis.. even JOL. Maybe just do your part to rate it if you enjoy it.

Indeed!

You are right abt the FL for love like galaxy. She was not quite mature :P Lusi will be mad! hahhahah

Hi Nati, it depends, You can try Nirvana in Fire (politics and intrigue but old show but very good), The story of Ming lan (strong female lead but long show), Untamed (Fighting Wuxia but hints of BL) , Love like the Galaxy both 1 and 2, Kuning palace.

Its building up... but I think it wont reach the heights until season 3. But let's see where it ends!

I think he does like her. He is also so tragic... pit against the CP by his own father.. sigh ....

well said. Everyone just emotes so well why they loved it :)

yeah! Another satisfied fan. So nice we too all enjoyed it. And tis was so nice after that roller coaster of a ride! And such a sweet life together and reminder of the full circle at the beginning of the story. :)

yes thats why its going to be interesting to see how she is "revived" if at all! but eh... we dont know ... the drama is quite different ;0

depends on whether they follow the anime or develop from it. She gets reincarnated in the anime/comes back and she did not marry Yue Chu in the anime either, she married someone else. But there is some obstacle between the couple until they reunite. But yes they were together but how the drama will play this out or is it a BE, no idea since they changed a lot of stuff already.

Dear the Untamed set a bar.....in fact, it did so well they didn't want these type of dramas to be aired (political issue for China). Their chemistry and overall story and production quality was very highly praised and reviewed. Its still hugely popular and remembered very well. As this drama currently stands, I don't think it will reach those heights.. but maybe we have to watch and see. So far... I ain't feeling any chemistry thats really explosive for any of the CPs.. yaya and ah Lai at least have some hints of affection.

Yes I concur with the views of my fellow commenters here. We are quite in agreement on many views on this page, which is very rare. Also I was amazed that the actors did so well with their CGI because they were acting with non existent items (phoenix at the start or ML creating things out of air and look suave and not stupid) and their fight scenes didnt just entail them waving their arms around a lot of the time..

So right. JOL is a complicated largely political scheming type drama with some martial arts.. Shen Li was so straight forward - good vs evil (protecting their realm xian xia love story) and yet done so well..

Both are hard to execute well and both did a great job... Shen Li has rewatch value,.. JOL I cannot really rewatch except some scenes..

But the problem with so good is that Every drama is now compared to JOL and Shen Li - and this causes lots of fandom/fan war issues.. like I said Weibo is a mad house daily.. I just dont get why people (or so called those accounts that are made to promote stuff) like to keep comparing. Even the story of rose (which is a modern piece... they already started the chatter on comparison and ratings - simply because LGX is in it as well and Yi Fei is kind of in the same age bracket as Liying) ARGH!

I do like yaya and Lai (so far its more fleshed out in terms of their interactions. But is it touching me, eh not quite yet. And I like Rong rong, her character and acting so far is all ok :) but the editing and directing is in a weird territory.

size was back in secret so he wasnt supposed to show up :)
