Day 13: Drama I found boring.

There were definitely several that fizzled out after the 1/2way point but the one that was horrid from the start was #SweetHome season 2!! I only kept at it because I watched it with @whoosh and apparently, misery loves company! There were only 8 shows and they were the longest shows I've watched. I just kept it on as background noise in the final half, in case 1 of the 3 interesting characters showed up.


Sweet Home Season 2
(2023 - Netflix 8 1:11 eps)

Of the 3 parts, this has the lowest MDL rating at 8.0 (generous). The apartment residents from S1 have moved to a stadium with new people & stories that don't tie together. Acting is still marvelous, the CGI even scarier, unnecessary gore, & stories that you hope are for S3 (otherwise, why?)

Still makes you wonder if humans are monsters, but no new revelations. With so many new characters & only 8 eps, the depth isn't there. Song Kang is only in a few eps. When we see him, an appreciation for how much he brings to the work as an actor is evident. As the story finally focuses on his character, we are drawn back in. Glad I persevered to see the last couple of eps, but I only held on in the middle in the hopes that S3 would be much better.

There are fabulous horror shows, including #Happiness, #SweetHome, and #GyeongseongCreatures (which I haven't yet seen but it's very popular).
Fantasy includes #TaleOfTheNineTailed
Also, a lot of amazing historical fiction, but it's Korean history, which is not so familiar to me. Many different ages of history are represented.
Oh, and romantic comedy!! SO many, and almost always with the #FemaleGaze! I never really knew that male beauty was a thing but I sure do now!
