Now that I've completed #ThePrincessRoyal, I feel like I'm finally ready for the schlocky, melodramatic & gothicness of #TheDouble.
About the The Princess Royal, I enjoyed it, but the last arc wasn't as good as I wanted it to be (classic #CDrama syndrome lol).
But on the whole a pleasant watch.
Also hunting for a good #KDrama - I need a good intense thriller like Flower of Evil and Memorist. If you know anything like this lemme know. I'm eyeing Flex X COP - any good?

AnnaAnthro (annaanthro@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 16-Jul-2024 19:40:19 JST AnnaAnthro @liztai I’ve enjoyed The Double esp. first half. Regeneration cdrama is a good mystery.
As for kdrama: Have you watched Misty yet? Slow burn murder mystery. Superb pacing. I liked Connection too but I enjoy ML in anything.
Exhuma is out on Viki as paid film.
Flex x Cop is lighter & a bit sillier than I thought it’d be but surprisingly watcheable - pacing good. More of a series of whodunnits than tense suspense arc.

Looks like flex X could be it too. Prob few shows as intense and good as Memorist and Flower of Evil but those are rare. And yeah, how could I forget Devil Judge!

As for Escape, I did not find the plot that complicated? It just keeps twisting and turning in super unexpected ways. It never goes where you think it’s going. It’s as if most scenes are cliffhangers, instead of just episode endings! I was out of breath from beginning to end!

AnnaAnthro (annaanthro@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 16-Jul-2024 19:40:54 JST AnnaAnthro @bougiewonderland @liztai Devil Judge was FABBB!!! Crazy plot, sexy smolder, fires, mysteries…
I started Escape for Joonie but got completely tangled in the plot - if I start again I will need a wall, pushpins, photos, red markers, string to keep everything clear!

Also: The Escape Of the Seven was amazing. It never lets up, either in the first or the second season. Grade A ensemble cast. I can’t recommend it enough!
