Triad Princess

A top gangsters daughter goes to work as a bodyguard for an actor she is smitten with against her fathers wishes. Lighthearted drama which has the occasional comedic moment and is well acted but overall the story is not that entertaining. Hopefully it may improve in season two as the story develops.

Have you ever watched something completely ridiculous and non-sensical, but you just don't care because it's so fun? That's this show.

First, I can't understand all the negative reviews. There are 6 action packed, full of great human interaction episodes. I am a super fan of Jasper Liu and he did not disappoint, he was super charming, quirky, quixotic, funny, romantic, and athletic. I'd never seen Eugenie Liu who played the Princess, but she was also great. Be alert- lots of action, plot twists,side characters. Jasper is a top star, who was attacked and the Mafia princess rescues him. His agency hires a bodyguard, aforesaid princess (note that her dad is trying to get her married). What follows are some sweet, somewhat scary, cute, athletic episodes. Her dad does not believe that an actor should be her husband. Granted, Jasper had not even agreed to date her. There are some very funny scenes involving mafiosi who are quite lazy, don't follow orders, ...But Jasper was kidnapped and thrown into a river. Twist - when she was growing up, she had a quite large male playmate who was the son of a partner Mafia clan. The parents agree that they should marry. He is now slim, gorgeous, ...Jasper is again taken. Along the way, a number of very witty characters voice their opinions and urge them on or try to prevent them rom being together. Each episode is new, fresh, exciting. Does love prevail? Watch out to see.

Considering the open ending, I can only assume there will be a second season of the show. There are a few loose ends that needs to be resolved. Despite the cute and unrealistic depiction of what is the ferocious world of the maffia, which I could overlook, I quite enjoyed this little sweet tale, although it doesn't leave any lasting impression.

I was so disappointed when I finished episode 6 only to discover there's nothing after it :( Producers and Netflix, please give us a second season!
