Tempted is a Dumpster Fire Show

This will be a review mostly discussing my take on the show - It will be a rant!!

Honestly, I have never written a review on this website before but I feel like I have to talk about how much this drama pained me to watch. I really enjoyed the beginning, it was decent. Nothing too bad or good but I was hooked on the idea. However, as I continued watching through this show, it was getting worse by the episode and I only watched four of them! Really says a lot. The idea of this scandalous life between corporate heirs and families interested me but what made me turn my head against this show was the writing of the main female lead's writing. She was not introduced at all until everything began unfolding and how she was related to the story which is a terrible thing to do if you are writing ANYTHING. I'm not even that much of a critique in story writing but even I can tell when the character writing and timing is this bad. At first, I thought she was just a side character who was going to have MINIMUM relevancy to the story. This thought is for good reason though because the first time we see her is as an actual side character's friend. It really felt like a 'Y/N wattpad' moment as she got more involved in the story throughout the episodes. Apart from that, her character in general is absolute garbage. Her character is so plain and boring, there is nothing really that lets the audience relate to her in any way or even like. Because we never get this audience to character connecting introduction of the main character in the beginning of the show, I was rooting for the supposed rival character because she was introduced FIRST and had way more depth than that sorry main lead could ever have. In conclusion, this show disappointed me because I thought it was actually going to be something good but even I could write something better than this shitshow and the main male lead will probably end up with the plain-jane good-at-everything character rather than the girlboss. Actually, they should all end up with family therapy course sessions.
