Can't Buy Me Love

Yeah, a very cringey title for a review but I said what I said. I have never been this so invested in a Filipino teleserye until Can't Buy Me Love happened. Although it still follow the basic formula of a teleserye (family drama, mind boggling plot twists and etc!!!) which are so long but this show isn't dragging at all. It truly highlights what the actors, Donny and Belle are capable of when it comes to showcasing their characters Bingo and Caroline. As the show progresses, it makes you grip the edge of your seat. Mystery, slow burn romance, a little bit of comedy and it's chef's kiss. I am enjoying it!!!!!

9/10 for the cast & crew. The lacking in this drama is the script specially in the earlier episodes(30-60). I don't know what the writers wanted to tell to their audience but its so messed up. I heard that they change the writers to their recent episodes and now the series is back on its track. And im loving the slowburn realistic lovestory of the lead (Bingo & Ling) cant wait to unfold more of their lovestory. And Bingo and Ling deserves a happy ending after all the tragic events happened in their life. There are only 50 episodes left in this series and im hoping, praying, wishing for the best. :)

This show is so amazing 😍 Finally, I found a show that aabangan ko everyday hindi na lang puro KDràma 🤣 Donny and Belle are amazing 🙌 Their over the top chemistry is overflowing on the screen. Belle Mariano once again prove her brilliance in acting, that girl is so talented 🙌 she is the future! I always thought Donny Pangilinan cant act but he prove me wrong coz HE CAN! He is afterall the son of Maricel Laxa, the apple really doesnt fall far from the tree, Donny Pangilinan impressive performance in this series makes him deserving of all the hype he is getting right now. CBML is not your typical rom com🤣 it takes you on the rollercoaster ride of emotions, and at the edge of your seat 🙌 Kudos to the writers. I just really dont like the yucky scene from Irene and Snoop I dont find it funny at all 👎 I wish they will stop making them happen coz no chemistry at all, trying hard and cringey 👎 I hope they rather push Irene and Stephen angle to highlight the sibling rivalry between the younger sisters but Im glad that they solving the problem faster 👍 Episode 92 is the best🙌 now that Caroline knows the truth I really hope she wrecks havoc to her useless family. Im really excited to the coming episode and Im so seated.

I kinda expected this to be leaning on the romantic-comedy genre, but I was wrong. It is heavy on they mystery and I love it. I did not want to watch it at first because I saw that it will air for a few months with 150 episodes. I'm glad I started it and I'm honestly looking forward to the next episode. The plot twists are crazy. I had theories at first but they always get debunked. This show makes me think.

The main leads, Donny and Belle, are excellent at portraying their roles. They stayed true to their characters. Bingo is such a lovable character and his line "anak ng panty" just makes me laugh everytime. Caroline is not the typical romance archetype from past Filipino series. She's misunderstood, she's angry but subdued. Their realistic slow-burn romance is everything. Their height difference is also really cute. A petite girl safe in the arms of a big guy, just awwww.

Also really binge-able.

To be honest, Can't Buy Me Love caught my attention because of it's Opening Billboard. It was awesome. I was curious, so I watched Episode 1 and it already gave me a sense of mystery. The slow burn romance is realistic. It has a hint of romcom, family issues, secrets and revenge. Bingo and Caroline's sweet moments are very natural and all other characters are good too. From watching Episode 1, I just find myself enjoying the series and watching it everyday. Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano are the only actors or actresses I can think of who are best suited for the characters of Bingo and Caroline.
