Episode 1 ofThe Clearingbegins with a little girl walking home from school. She notices a teenager carving her name in a tree. Amused by the activity, the girl stood by and watched. The little girl did not approve of it; she believed trees had feelings, and by carving names on them, the blond-haired teenager was hurting the tree. Amy, the teenager, compared the name carving process with tattooing and showed excitement to carve the name of the little stranger. She spelled out her name S-A-R-A proudly and added that she was eight years old. Amy asked Sara to guess her…

Another week, another episode is what we feel aboutHigh Desert. There is too much happening in Peggy s life, yet the series based on her is so underwhelming to watch. At least, her jokes should have been better for us to look forward to the coming episodes. But moving on, here is a recap of Episode 4 ofHigh Desert. Spoiler Alert What Does Denny Want With Peggy? Peggy s mother, in the 1980s, looked just like Peggy, except with red hair. That is making us think how old is Peggy even? She looked like someone in her late teens when…

Totally Completely Fineis the story of Vivian, who inherits her grandfather s house overlooking a cliff and finds that the job he has left for her is to prevent the people who come to the cliff to commit suicide, from jumping to their deaths. We want to say that this is a well-made show and that it really captures people s unhappiness and their relationship with the act of living itself in a nuanced way. Yet this show misses the mark somewhere. It is just one of those things that seem to have done everything right but just don t…

Whoever wroteTale of the Nine Tailed 1938is giving us exactly what we want. It started out with fanservice, and when the joy of that was on the brink of wearing off, they started making meaningful strides in the story. In that spirit, here is the detailed recap and ending of Episode 6. Spoilers Alert Why Has Moo Young Come To Meet Yeon? We like Ryu Hong Joo, especially the way she simplifies things to plan her next move. It was awesome how she threw a sword at Yeon and Moo Young as they were fighting, simply because she knew that…

As Doctor Chaends visits in two weeks, tensions are at an all-time high. We are irritated by several things, including Seung Hi’s increasing hatred brought on by her desperation and So Ra’s sudden softness. Seung Hi’s character need more nuance than it now receives, and So Ra’s abrupt change in attitude, though not phony, lacks the responsibility she ought to bear for her actions. There isn’t much to say other than that things aren’t going as they should, but we assume the writers lost track of that in their haste to elevate Jeong Suk to sainthood. Here is a summary…

The first five episodes ofFatal Attractionmade us realize that Alex Forrest was suffering from some kind of mental disorder where she lost her temper and wasn t in control of her emotions. She did things that were very unlike her, and the person on the other side always got startled because they didn t expect her to react so erratically. Spoilers Alert Fatal AttractionEpisode 6 gives us a bit more insight into what was actually happening with Alex and how she was before she started working for victim services and met Dan. We believe that Dan had not murdered Alex,…

Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938 is a Lee Dong Wook show from beginning to end, as we have noted in each episode’s review that we have written. It really takes a pause to concentrate more on the story around him in Episode 5, though. We were aware that this series had become exceedingly fluffy after the first four episodes. Even though Episode 5 was exempt from it, the storytelling itself fell short. The writing had a somewhat chaotic quality to it. We’re not sure what it was exactly, but it was there. In any case, here is a thorough…

We are happy to announce thatDoctor Charemains as entertaining as ever. There was a particular breakup that we were rather desperate to see, and then there was some nasty behavior that felt a little undeserved. Overall, the lesson to learn was that the men of this series will do what they please, be it In Ho or Chief Yoon. They make commitments as per their convenience and then follow their hearts while breaking others when it suits them. Please don t come at us with not all men or What about the women who do it? We can t explain…

Ghosts of Beirut, a Showtime thriller series, declares at the outset that it is a fictionalized account of true events and that its creators did extensive study before drawing any conclusions. The series’ creators may have adopted a diplomatic stance because, in today’s society, no one wants to be held responsible for lying about the truth. In addition, calling the series a fictional account also gives them some latitude to exercise creative freedom and add specific scenes or elements solely for entertainment. However, after viewing the first episode of Ghosts of Beirut, we can state that it largely adheres to…

XO, Kittyliterally played out like a western k-drama. This means that the emotions were just right (courtesy of K-dramas), and the humor was better (we apologize for this dig). Since Kitty s life in this series was awfully messy, and she had no chemistry with any of her love interests, we did not find ourselves swooning as much as we caught ourselves cringing at a lot of the supposed romance. Yet, there were some moments that made an impression or became a noteworthy part of the narrative. So, here is a concise list of all those moments. 1. The Pull…
