Medici (2016)
Took me back in time
I adored this series when s1 came out and rewatched each season many times. After rewatching, s1 is not as good as I remember and is overshadowed by s2, which is certainly the stand out of the three. The costumes, actors and cinematography were much more memorable to me. s3 had a more somber tone, rightfully so but I still enjoyed it. I'd say watch this series for the soundtrack and costumes. The plot centers around the Medici family and 15th century politics so if you like drama, pretty clothes and great scores blasting in your ear, then this is the show for you.
Beulraek (2017)
Everything was great until...
I loved the plot, the action, the acting and everything else you could name. However, the last episode was disappointing especially compared to the other episodes which were so strong, building up the story only to have the finale be so mundane and cliche.
Imawa no Kuni no Arisu (2020)
Incredibly Entertaining
I've never read the manga so I can't compare that to this, but THIS was an amazing show. This concept was unlike any other show I've watched before. I loved many of the characters and how they use their individual strengths while playing the games. This was also my first Japanese drama and I was not disappointed. Overall, a thrilling drama that I easily watched in two days.
Epidemiya (2019)
Thoroughly entertaining
To me, this show is more focused on the relationships of our characters rather than the virus, but I enjoy that. There's some good character development and each episode is packed with action and ending with a cliffhanger. This was my first Russian drama and I'm not disappointed. The soundtrack is also amazing!
La valla (2020)
Mostly infuriating characters
I thought this would be a great show since the plot sounded interesting, but I could never get past the fact that the majority of the characters were so brash and annoying. The main male character especially. I can get past the fact that they are going through a difficult time but I wish they would stop making dramatic entrances and yelling every episode. The only character I cared for was Alma who carried the show imo. I wouldn't rewatch this, ever.
