THE SHORT VERDICT:
When Show is at its best, it is cracktastically good.
A tight narrative; sparky, smoldering OTP tension; cliffhangers that kept me on the edge of my seat; it felt like Show had it all. 🥲
Unfortunately, when Show is not at its best, it’s quite disappointing indeed.
Show makes some perplexing narrative decisions in its finale stretch, which I found disappointing not because of their makjang flavor, but because of how these decisions missed the mark of what had made Show so compelling to begin with.
However, Show’s still worth a look for its fantastic first half, in my opinion. 🔥
