Not Emotionally Impactful if You're Not Rooting for the Main Characters
"Fake it Until You Make It" has some decent ideas, especially regarding the business stress and pressures of modern office work. Unfortunately, it falls short where it matters most: the romance. The chemistry between the main leads often feels forced and lacks genuine connection. The story frequently goes off track, and the execution and direction seem unconventional and disjointed.
The editing also contributes to the disjointed feel, with abrupt transitions between scenes that disrupt the narrative flow. The cinematography is unremarkable, and the theme songs and music selections sometimes feel out of place and detract from the overall experience.
All these factors made it difficult for me to root for the main couple, leaving me uninterested in their story. My recommendation is to watch the first few episodes. If you don't find yourself invested in the main couple by then, it's unlikely you will enjoy the rest of the series.
