  Episode 98: Let’s Talk Against the Current Ep. 1–30 | Slow Burn, Sharp Writing & Surprisingly Great Characters

  Sep 30, 202642 min

  Somehow, the big family melodrama we thought might be boring has become one of our most addictive watches of the year. Through episode 30, we talk about what makes Against the Current 兰香如故 work so well, from its slow-burn storytelling and quietly capable heroine to its complicated relationships and unexpectedly effective romance. Plus, we hand out a few very unofficial awards of our own. (00:32) Introduction (05:00) Why Does This Work So Well? (08:13) Lan Xiang: Absurdly Capable… But Earned (13:51) Linda爷: The Male Lead Nobody Wants (22:55) Class, Women & Survival (27:37) This Isn’t Pride and Prejudice. It’s Dickens. (30:51) Against the Current Awards Disclaimer: Our podcast chats are intended to be casual banter in the name of good fun. There may be jokey remarks and tangents.

  Episode 97: Great Potential, Messy Payoffs | The Early Spring, Blossom Through the Cloud & Pull Strings Wrap-Ups

  Sep 19, 202643 min

  We finished The Early Spring 早春晴朗 , Blossom Through the Cloud 飞到我心上, and Pull Strings 师兄太稳健—and now comes the reckoning. Did The Early Spring do enough to sell us on that second chance? Is Blossom Through the Cloud’s very cute CP enough to overcome its messy storytelling? And why did Pull Strings suddenly reveal real emotional stakes… before ending with a finale that had us flashing back to Doctor Who? (00:33) Introduction (01:02) The Early Spring: Did the Second Chance Actually Work?

  Episode #96

  Episode 96: When the Tropey Romance Works Better | The Early Spring & Blossom Through the Cloud Midway Check-In

  Sep 7, 202630 min

  Two workplace romances, two faithful novel adaptations, and two very different reactions. In this pod, we talk about Chinese dramas “The Early Spring” 早春晴朗 and “Blossom Through the Cloud” 飞到我心上. “The Early Spring” is beautifully shot, polished, atmospheric and compelling to watch, but we're struggling with one rather important thing: the central romance. “Blossom Through the Cloud” is lower-budget, tropey, occasionally ridiculous, yet somehow much easier for us to buy as a romance. (00:32) Introduction (01:53) The Early Spring: Beautiful, But Is the Romance Working? (17:25) Blossom Through the Cloud: Tropey, Fun & Surprisingly Convincing Disclaimer: Our podcast chats are intended to be casual banter in the name of good fun.

  Episode 95: Pull Strings & Sis, He Really Is My Brother-in-Law | Comedy Saves Us!

  Aug 30, 202637 min

  After recent brushes with toxic romance, Juniper and Elle are ready for a comedy cleanse. First up is C-drama “Pull Strings” 师兄太稳健, a wildly unserious cultivation adventure starring Ao Ruipeng as a modern man trying to survive a fantasy world by keeping his true power under wraps. Then we turn to the vertical rom-com “Sis, He Really Is My Brother-in-Law” 姐，他真是我姐夫, where a time-traveling brother takes it upon himself to fast-track his sister’s romance with her CEO boss. Two very different comedies, plenty of chaos, and two casts fully committed to the bit. Toxic love successfully washed away — at least for now. (00:33) Introduction (01:55) Pull Strings: A Live-Action Cartoon With Layers & A Wackily Charming Ao Ruipeng (22:28) Sis, He Really Is My Brother-in-Law: Time Travel, Contract Marriage & Chen Si’s Abs Disclaimer: Our podcast chats are intended to be casual banter in the name of good fun.

  Episode 92: Chemistry vs. Camp | Love For You Wrap-Up & Overdo Impressions

  Aug 4, 202644 min

  In this episode, we finish “Love For You” 野狗骨头, breaking down why this surprise romance favorite worked despite a questionable final act. Then we dive into our first impressions of “Overdo” 这一秒过火, either a gloriously intentional or accidentally over-the-top melodrama. (00:32) Introduction (01:24) Love For You Wrap-Up (episodes 13-32) - Great Romance, Uneven Finale (18:49) Love For You Bonus Variety Show & Final Verdict (22:15) Overdo First Impressions (episodes 1–5) - What Exactly Is It Going For?
