My gripes with the show.
A. Runway is super immature
B. Tanai needs to take a hint and get over Runway who obviously isn't interested
C. Poor editing. So many slow scenes that could've been edited down.
D. Can we get SOME sort of explanation? I understand high fantasy and all but come on.
E. Good's obsession with his dead wife is wtf. We finally get SOME developments with Good and Elle then Elle disappears and his wife reappears?
F. The Yim rape was handled so poorly.

Some people didn't like P'Dream's interest in Runway but I think it's fine. He clearly didn't do anything while Runway was a kid, and Tanai was the one who was about to jump him before P'Dream stepped in...

I'll give it a 7/10 because they tried to do something different. I liked the characters, and I am interested to see the next season.

This show is a double-edged sword. It is good because it has a plot that I like, but I've seen it before. I like that it continued the story that the original never got to do, but it's more like a diet version.

The acting (minus Phana's actor) was so much better in the first. I feel so bad. I tried SO HARD to like this new one. I kept telling my friends to watch it and give it a chance. But the acting felt flat. Phana's actor was better than the first but Wayo, Ming, Kit, and Beam were lacking. Forth's actor was by far the most believable, and his couple had the most chemistry. Chemistry is what lacked A LOT in this series compared to the previous. I was almost bored my certain scenes. The pacing was also very fast, and it lacked a lot of memorable scenes that were replaced with Wayo and his stereotype fairy gang. I know they played a huge plot in the book, but they rewrote a lot already. Why not tone them down?

But it was enjoyable and overall a decent remake. It just doesn't quite have good rewatch value.
