Bridgerton S2: The Viscount Who Loved Me

For everyone who isn’t familiar of the title, it is actually the title of the novel by Julia Quinn in which the Season 2 of Bridgerton was based on. The first one was The Duke and I (Season 1). The Netflix Original series is produced by Shonda Rimes, the producer who made our beloved Grey’s Anatomy possible, and yes this is by far the cutest series focusing on royalties in the year (1813-1827) that we all have wondered about. It’s the era of the romantics as I call it.

Since this is another book adaptation, we all know that I go crazy on books and yes, I have read the whole series which consists of 8 romance novels, so the question is, are we gonna expect 8 seasons for Bridgerton? Well, I shall not keep you from reading my review and getting in the zone.

For those who have not yet set eyes on the series, please refrain from scrolling my article as this might ruin the excitement of your viewing…ah, yes, as always, it will be your own risk to read spoilers…go ahead then…

One Of Us Is Lying (A Moview)

After Riverdale, Pretty Little Liars, Elite and so much more TV series that are based in a thriller, suspense genre which likely perceives a dark side of high school kind of thing, yet another thrilling story that will question all your trust when it comes to people, is released by Netflix. Yes, I know my intro is kinda crooked but yes, I have been watching so many TV Series lately that I think everything is just the same. One killed one, one lied about it and one will be blamed for it. That’s basically how the story goes nowadays but don’t you agree? Like there’s some kind of standard when it comes to making thriller and mind-bugging shows and to top it all of we just need to determine which TV series that was previously released best saves similarities of this new one. I know, it’s a lot to take in for an introduction, it’s the same as watching slasher movies all over again but you already know that the one who acted dumb is the killer.

OOUIL (One of us is lying) is the new released TV series about 4 high school students with different backgrounds getting framed for their schoolmate’s death; this is based from the mystery/suspense novel of the same titled written by Karen McManus. The series revolves around the time when everyone has suspected the four students of the crime and every episode will spark investigation and story telling for every each of the characters including their possible involvement in the case but are they really innocent? Well, in the TV Series we will know for sure.

A New Generation Of Zombies (All Of Us Are Dead Review and Theories)

I know this is a little bit late after all those trends about this latest Korean TV series by Netflix entitle All Of Us Are Dead. This is more famous than Squid Game, people! And I think that I have never seen an apocalypse becomes this hit. Well, Korean Dramas have been out in there for so many years and I think that they are always ahead of the game when it comes to dramas, they’re like next to USA but now, it seems like they are getting way better than the US-based TV Series. Even US had adapted few of their TV series, The Good Doctor to name one.

All Images were from Google Images

If you noticed, as the years pass by, movies are becoming more and more close to whatever is happening in the world. Example of these were catastrophic/disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow, Contagion, 2012, Into The Storm, Geostorm, San Andreas, and The Core; these are the OGs when it comes to making viewers realize about the disaster that could happen if we don’t take care of the nature. I grew up watching documentaries about global warming, and the destruction of the ozone layer which I think is just two of the many problems that the earth is experiencing. And since the pandemic (Covid19) had spread, many documentaries about it had been released and some other fiction movies about widespread epidemic and apocalypse has been surfacing in the movie world. US was the first who made apocalypse be known and even the possibilities of other creatures living among us and the famous amongst all those creatures are the zombies (these are people who died and came back to life). US had made a successful show about it, The Walking Dead and they followed it with iZombie, Z-Nation, Warm Bodies, and Zombieland…but the Koreans were the ones who made it more true to life as they start to invest on creating Zombie TV Series and movies, one of those who really hot the blockbuster was Train to Busan, Alive and then followed by so many TV series but one that took the limelight was The Kingdom, it currently has two seasons and one movie prequel. This 2022, the Korean TV Production has yet again amazed everyone after the released of All Of Us Are Dead.

Emily in Paris: Is Second Chance Really Worth It?

Okay, this is the second season of Emily in Paris, I wrote a review before for the Season 1 which you can read HERE. It is about a story of an American lady who went to France for work but little did she know, France will change her life not only her work. Emily, upon arriving in France (Reference to Season 1) is literally the epitome of ignorance of culture. She just walks there with her English language without even having the initiative to learn the language which they actually portrayed well in the first season, yes it was funny but a little ignorant now that I realize how I personally not that giddy about the second season. Yes, girl, the second season was rather like a push to finish a cluttered plot.

Okay, I’m gonna start by writing what happens in Season 2. So Emily is getting used to the Paris life, in the last episode of s1, she hooked up with the chef, Gabriel, thinking he will be leaving Paris the next day but she was wrong, apparently she will have to live with the fact that she is now actually the bitch who fucked her best friend’s boyfriend, like good plot, ye? However, the major clutter comes next on the following episodes.

Many of us watches reality TV Shows like Big Brother, Survivor, Fear Factor, and even the dating reality TV Shows like Bachelor and Bachelorette, and the new ones were the Circle, Blind Dating, Too Hot to Handle and these shows were US based and just recently, at the end of 2021, the Korean’s got to enter the reality TV world again by releasing Single’s Inferno.

This TV show is streamed in Netflix with 8 episodes. You wanna know what is it all about? Yes, I will get there. But right now, let me tell you something about Korean Dramas, Music and Culture which been invading the whole world. I mean, it’s not bad, it’s a good thing that finally, asians were not only classified as Chinese, Japanese but also Koreans. Yes, most of my friends in the US still confuses the three cultures which I think is a bit helpful if the world is actually starting to know the difference of each one.

My Name: TV Series (Spoiler Alert)

From the mistress in the World of Married to having her own show in Nevertheless, Han So-Hee has become one of the sought after actresses in the Kdrama limelight. After the wild acting in the Nevertheless, I think jumping into a role that represents the ignited femme fatale in every woman is a major leap of faith. We all know who have done this major jump too, Park Shin-Hye is one of those actresses that I believe has this versatility when it comes to roles that she plays. And surprisingly, they have Han the chance to prove herself by having different kinds of roles.

Her new Korean Drama Series, My Name, is about a lady who’s father was believed part of the gangsters that were wanted in their place, however before she even get an clarification from her father, he was unfortunately killed in their doorstep during her birthday. The incident led her to finding the culprit and deciding to join the gangster that her father was a member of.

Squid Game: TV Series(A Moview)

“All of you in this room are living on the edge, with depts you cannot pay off. If you don’t wish to play, please let us know.”

Squid Game, 2021.

As an adult, we all go through the time where we need to work and sometimes we don’t get high-paying jobs so we tend to borrow money either from banks or from people we know but there are also borrowers who fail to pay their debts on time and just runaway from their collectors. I know that you can all relate to what I’m saying. Credit cards, bank loans and loan sharks, these are the samples of the ways you can borrow money but little did we know, interest rate is as much as harder to pay just like the credit that you owe them so sometimes we tend to pay late or we just cannot pay the whole amount and interest keeps increasing. Well, in short, we are paying double the money we borrowed.

So this new Korean drama is invading all the streaming sites and actually, many people are trying out the whole concept of squid game. This series is about a game where players play bunch of games that kids are used to play. However, the difference of this game from what we have seen when we were kids is that when you get eliminated, you’ll be eliminated literally, like gunshot elimination.

Gossip Girl: XOXO, She’s Back!

“We’re sisters. You’re my family. What is you is me. There’s nothing you could ever say that would make me let go.”

Blair Waldorf, Gossip Girl 2007

Apparently, there’s a new scoop going around Manhattan after 8 years of being asleep, our beloved Gossip Girl is back! HBO Max just or should I say finally reprise Gossip Girl and it’s all we have been waiting for! Since its premiere in 2007, Gossip Girl is the no. 1 go-to of all high school girls like me. It became our creative standards when it comes to IT Girl TV Shows.

No one can beat Serena and Blair-two high school best friends who are facing the pressure of being an IT Girl around a very pressuring society of Manhattan. We have lived almost the whole high school and college, well, I’d say I did, and survived it because of them. Their mottos became my mantra. I know as a fan you will hear that all through out this article.

I was actually late to hear about this because I was too busy at work but last week I was able to
