Previously: Jan – Feb – Mar – Apr – May – June – July – Aug
Completed:
- Beautiful Mind – much better than the ratings would have you believe. Bummed it was shortened to 14 eps, but it was a solid show through until the end, managing to keep my interest even though I don’t normally like doctor shows.
- The Good Wife – lived up to my expectations and more. Plus I’m probably not going to stop talking about those pink stilettos any time soon.
Currently Watching:
- Monster – can you believe that there are only seven episodes left?
- Second to Last Love – I’ve only watched the first couple of eps, but it seemed like the kinda old-school rom-com (with the slapstick and opposites attracting) that will make for good brainless background watching, so I’m not willing to admit that I’ve dropped it yet.
Plan to watch, eventually:
- Age of Youth – yeah, it’s already ended, but dramas were made for marathoning, right?
- Jealousy Incarnate – my beloved Jo Jung Suk! Lee Mi Sook! Go Kyung Pyo!
Skipping/Dropping:
- all the historical dramas
- W – I doubt I’ll get to this any time soon or maybe even ever. Despite my love for everyone’s favorite bodyguard and Cheekbones Ahjussi, I haven’t really heard anything that’s sparked my interest.
- K2 – I’ve basically claimed the Fri/Sat tvn slot and was vaguely worried this would be my next assignment even though it didn’t interest me at all (although I could find a way to muster up enthusiasm if need be and then hope to be pleasantly surprised), so I’m relieved that I can skip it.
Upcoming dramas of interest:
- Drinking Solo – I was vaguely interested, but then I saw Key’s teaser and was like “oh heck yes I need to see the diva.” Plus there’s supposed to be a Goo Dae Young cameo, and despite the fact that I refuse to accept that Soo Kyung noona was written out, I’m all for seeing that cute foodie again.
- Tomorrow With You – sad that this has been pushed back to next year, but I’m still excited to see Shin Min Ah again! The writer concerns me, but I like the director’s style, so hopefully it will all even out.
- October is usually a prime month for premieres, but glancing at a list of upcoming dramas, there isn’t anything that particularly stands out for me even though I assume that a couple specific shows will be ratings monsters. Maybe instead I’ll finally finish all those shows I unwillingly dropped this year!
As always, any drama not listed means I have nothing new to add since the last mention and/or it’s not something I care about enough to add to the list.
