Year In Review: 2023

If you’ve been waiting and wondering whether my year-in-review would ever come out, I apologize. 😅

Here it is, finally.

I know it’s almost April now, so mine is probably not only the last End Of Year review of 2023 on this site, it’s probably the last one in the entire drama blogosphere. 😂

In my defense, we’ve been having lots of guest posts from folks on Patreon, sharing their year-end reviews, so that we can have a more wholistic look at Dramaland’s offerings.

With the community chiming in, we get to see a bigger range of dramas mentioned – so this approach doesn’t give us a fast overview of Dramaland, but.. it offers a pretty good one?

This year, we’ve had 15 (!!) guest year-end wrap posts (they’re all listed here!), and now, I hope you’ve still got room in your heart for one more. 😉

Show more than makes up for its shortcomings with how much heart it has, and, importantly, manages to finish strong, instead of petering out at the end, as some time travel stories have been known to do.

Would recommend.
