THE SHORT VERDICT:
Show’s a good example of a drama that is solidly entertaining – provided you keep its pedigree in mind.
What I mean is, Show is a solid B-grade makjang, and sits in the moderate range of makjang-ness (in my opinion, at least). It’s makjang enough to be classified as makjang, but it’s not in the range of the more extreme makjangs out there.
Reasonably consistent and well-paced, with an appealing contract marriage OTP in the center of it all, Show works out to be very watchable, despite being a little rough around the edges.
Works better binged, with your logic lens on a blurry setting.
