Title: Taiwanese Tv-Drama
Post by: tp4tissue on Wed, 17 January 2018, 22:51:38: At first, It seems trite, childish, made for crass-people.

40 minutes in, You begin to lose brain cells.

By the 3rd Episode, having Lost all brain cells along with any Self-Respect, it finally gets good.

// Currently On episode 18 of Love-Cuisine..

// Life is already hard, don't think so much, and everything begins to reveal their own unique charm

Love Cuisine is, very different..

But even relative to -Neighbors- , it's Objectively worse..

Imagine someone tried to make an Anime and K-drama simultaneously, Token characters, story designed for low-income female audiences age 15 to 30. Every episode littered with ad/brand placements. All actors look waxy due to post-processing.

I started watching it because I was very curious as to WHY this show is well liked despite the fact that it doesn't have any time-travel/ spaceships/ or robots..

I'm always on the lookout for ultra-niche interests that I can share with one guy on a niche forum dedicated to something completely unrelated. It's getting harder and harder to be unique these days. I'm gonna watch this and try to get addicted.

Post by: futurecrime on Tue, 23 January 2018, 20:48:24: Ok, so it's cheap, but it's quite inventive. Reminds me a bit of Hollyoaks. Then there's all this cooking **** going on. The sound effects are amazing, there's twinkles when people have a thought. It's a bit slapstick, a bit Benny Hill. There were some women in bikinis at one point so I see why you kept watching.
