So, if you need a break from reality, watch this drama. It’s like a hug from someone who knows you’ve been through it, and then they hand you a bucket of popcorn. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, and it doesn’t ask you to, either.
You’ll laugh at how the heroine still hasn’t learned to lock a door, you’ll scream at the screen when the son gaslights her, and you’ll swoon when the father says something like, “My heart beats only for you.” It’s dumb, it’s fun, and it reminds you that even your worst love life could spawn a hit drama.
Go ahead. Watch it. Then call your mom and ask if she’d rather date a 26-year-old or his 50-year-old dad. The answer might surprise you—it surprised me. And honestly, in this economy? A man who owns a suit AND a potted plant? That’s the dream.
