Parceira Suspeita

I like the story and the actors but I feel like the story dragged a bit at the end so maybe few less episodes would've been better.

The show is trying to do too many genres at once. Crime, thriller, romance, drama, and comedy is too much. While I acknowledge their effort, it just made the show all over the place. Tones changing constantly, it's hard to know what to feel and when. It's like watching two different shows.

Episodes are pretty slow. I genuinely feel like it should have concluded in 16 episodes. The flow would've been nicer and the sequence of events too. I usually finish a 16-episode drama in a few days. This one took me 4 days just to get to episode 7. I keep pausing out of distraction and doing something else. Basically, it's NOT a binge-able series.

However, I enjoyed everyone's acting. While JCW is great, this is one of his inferior roles. His overall performance was good, but something was missing. Female lead was okay, she plays the "unfiltered" quirky girl pretty well. However, the female lead's wardrobe was so bad. I don't think she wore a single appealing piece of clothing, it was awful to witness.

While both actors are good at acting, they simply didn't have the chemistry I thought they would. This feels harsh to say, but they did not look that good together.

The story, in my opinion, would have been much more interesting if they were genuinely and actively searching for the ex-boyfriend's real killer as soon as it happened. Overall, the plot could have used better writing and flow. Would I rewatch this? No. Would I recommend it to someone? Probably not.

I am not sure if the role of the lead actress was written that way or it was just that specific actress' baby-talking manner that was irritating. I like the story and how its about lawyers and crimes and has romcom parts but every time i hear the lead actress talk, its cringey and makes me not focus on the story. I do not want to hate her but halfway thru the series, she is already annoying.

The show is fun and light hearted. Sometimes it turns into a cartoon with all the sound effects and slapstick but thankfully it's not over the top with that.

The actors are fun and some of the cases make it seem like a soul successor to the ace attorney games.

Two flaws that stop me from giving it more stars. first the shameless Papa Jones product placement. It's too heavy handed and makes me want to order Pizza hut after each episode out of contrariness!

Second is the padding. The middle of this show is just filler and could have been cut out easily for a tight 12 episode drama.

Overall it's a relaxing time with light hearted characters with a touch of mystery and likeable leads.

Like the story, because it's funny, romantic but with the mysterious touch, it's not boring. This drama show all kinds of emotions, which are perfectly portrayed by the actors, the leading couple had best chemistry, and the secondary characters are so funny that you fall in love with all the cast. The leading couple goes trough a lot of psychological changes, sometimes you're upset with them, sometimes you agree with their behavior, but this feels like life itself. This writer style always revealed part of the mystery in the half of the drama, but you need to go all the way to the end to get all pieces of the puzzle and for the romantic story, when the ending looks like it can happen to you, that's when the drama gets to portrayed real life.
