OK, with yours and Black Orchid comments... I think I know which drama she's talking about before I start her rant video... XD and if it is that one, I couldn't agree more.
i haven't watched the drama. but it do be like that, fabric and silk is very expensive that it's become a source for wealth. the next 2 emperor have to banned nobleman from hoarding brocade silk
YES!!! basically, clothing is the cure for cancer right?! i mean hey, i wanna look good too and if i look good i feel good, but i am pretty sure a nice outfit isn't as important as everything else going on at the time...
Honestly, Avenue X, you made me choke on my coffee! You even dressed like them to rant about the unfortunate shortcomings of this drama. You are hilarious!
LOL "we can always watch it as a comedy" Kind of glad I didn't hop on this one yet. The pretty trailer intrigued me. At least now if I jump into it, I know what to expect
I'm wondering if this kind of script ever gets proofread or reviewed?? I mean like no one in the production team questioning how ridiculous it is?? like NO ONE?
I totally agree. The female lead is more stupid than when she was young. I liked how smart was when she left the needle and the book her mom gave her in the male lead box and she "sacrificed herself"... that's when I was thinking: the female lead will be smart and courageous.... but ohh boy, when she wanted to tell her identity to the villain, because "she was her mom disciple", even when she was told by her adoptive father not to say a word... she's so stupid that if not for her fellow eunuch, she would've been dead in the second episode... Great job.
I really had and still have no intention to watch this drama.. But still came to listen to you anyway, cause, duh - you talking about practically anything is just precious.
It's sad when film & TV productions ruin beloved literary works... I wonder how the novelist felt when she watched the drama unfolded on TV 🤦🏻♀️ I can imagine the hatred of the readers. Readers, we can be very... 🤬 when it comes to our beloved books. 🤣
This drama was so stupid that i couldn't make it through the first episode. i found myself skipping forward a lot trying to find "the good parts". when i ended up at the end of the entire episode, i realized that there wasn't anything good. So that means i don't watch another episode.... love your videos!!!!
She is 100% right. As a fan of the male lead Timmy Xu, I suffered a lot from watching the whole drama. However, if anyone feels bored and really wants to watch it, I recommend the last episode, because it's the only normal part in the whole drama. :))
Actually they try to find the cheapest labour and it's a world-wide fact that cheap salary is directly proportional to crappy products. Btw script-writers in China, especially those who are quite famous on platforms such as JJWXC, have so much status than Western authors, so even the mediocre ones charge good prices. So, you can understand that in the search of that cheap labour, production companies end up with amateur YA writers, who often write scripts for crappy manhuas.
Why do adult female actresses act like little annoying girls in C dramas? I don’t usually watch C dramas because of this. This in my book is not acting but playing to stereotypes. My drama teacher from a long time ago once said, “Don’t play young and cute, just be young.” This is particularly true because teenagers always think that they are grown ups in real life!
Thank God I didn't start this series cause it will cost my every brain cell of mine to not smack the character. I hate stupid character the most unless there is something tangible that makes the character stupid but if not pls don't invite me
The first 2 episodes were so good but aftet the third episode i couldn't keep watching otherwise it was self harm lmao . I've watched a loooooot of chinese dramas and never have I've seen such a dumb FL like this one . This one takes the prize
@@luisab7901 The lead female as a kid was a thousand times smarter than as an "adult". Why OH WHY do script writers do this? They destroy all credibility. I could rant for hours! I seriously think that some script writers should get sent to China's equivalent of Siberia and told to WRITE YOUR WAY OUT OF THAT. If they survive, they get to write scripts again...Let's put this to the vote.
What was hard for me was they made the little girl character so intelligent, talented and selfless. I was immediately hopeful to see a story about a girl so smart. When they transition to adult, the FL was such a departure from the younger version it became beyond frustrating to watch.
Today is one of those days where I'm trying (and mostly failing) to put on my friendly and sociable persona for work, and one of AvenueX's ranting videos comes out. It's fate! Maybe it will be somewhat cathartic ;)
I so love you so much, AvenueX for saying all the things that needed to be said about this drama. ❤️❤️ I found myself laughing so hard for this rant. Compared her I was watching the first few episodes of this drama and kept saying “ what an idiot!” All the time
It has been a hoot watching all the rants on this particular drama and now Avenue X joins in! Too funny. I guess the censors don’t censor stupid plots! What I don’t get is how the other reviewers seem to be able to insert clips of the drama without fear of reprisals but Avenue X seems to attract the copyright police🤔
tbh, I don't even understand why the script writers don't base their work on the already pre-existing novel, is not even that hard, you just have to read it.... Love the ranting, though~
Ahh I feel refreshed after watching your video. Rantings are my favourite, most of the time you see high rating and reviews only because people are fans of the actor/actress. I'm so happy to see actual analysis of crap plots.
I can’t agree more, it’s so ridiculous stupid how the script is going. She’s beautiful but her acting got nothing to speak about it. 棄劇after 2-3 dramas, life is more important than subject in this stupidity. I am ranting with you.
Even the compliments you made for the drama is so backhanded that I love it. 😭😭😭 Edit: It's so petty of them though to copyright strike you. Like, it's literally used for fair use? I wonder what's the copyright terms in China. 🤔
Just love the rants and the explanations. You are a favorite of mine. I wish I viewed your content before I saw some unfortunate dramas that were confounding and a pure waste of time. Some were actually upsetting. If they were my first exposure, I would have missed some gems assuming they were more or less the same type of banality and downright thoughtless dramas. My first drama was "Oh My General" and the music, costumes, characters just caught me and made me a diehard fan to explore more. And, of course, Korean dramas came next. BTW - The Legendary Life of Queen Lau. OMG! Hysterical. Atypical. Brings a smile to my face just thinking of it. Just when I had enough of the Imperial Court, and the concubines, intrigue, etc.
Thanks for the explanation regarding history/novel and the drama. I couldn't figure out why people bashed the drama so much even though FL character's naivety was driving me insane.
also from what i've seen so far (in random clips and rants from youtubers like avenuex lol), li shi min (the emperor)'s role was poorly written as well! he's known to be much more capable IRL but it seems like he's made a lot of silly + questionable decisions in the show hahaha
LOL! Your rant! You really cracked me up! When I'm unfortunate enough to come across such stupid dramas, I really want there to be a place where I can go to sue the producer/director/scriptwriter for the wasted time and braincells they killed off as I watched their drama. >_
I loved this rant!! So much fun to listen to! The characters and plot sound so ridiculous. I also really appreciate the historical insights, like the sumptuary laws.
i'm not even watching it lol, i'm just here for your rant xD but oh noo, it sounds so frustrating that it becomes hilarious. if only they spun it as a comedy instead, then it would've sat better? edit: oh i just reached to the end of the video, yes! i completely agree. if we believe it's a comedy, then it's a comedy xD the strength of the mind.
100% agree. The FL is insanely dumb which by compassion makes other characters seem "smart" but most of them are pretty dumb too. I'm really just watching because Timmy is pretty to look at but I do feel like iIm loosing brain cells in the process.
You got to name the scriptwriter and director!! And warn us when they show up on other dramas. The problem is most people blame the actors in these dramas. And the scriptwriter and director gets away with it to make another dud drama !
Hearing your rant, I got really curious about the book. I try to search it but no information available... could you give us more information about the plot in the book and the difference in drama. hey, but I get one good thing about the drama... It makes the book looks better so many people want to read it now hehehe
“Her body has certainly grown but her intelligence has received zero development” 🤣🤣🤣 I don’t watch this drama but some of the viewers’ comments are along these lines
Your rant is so funny. :D Thanks for the warning, I will skip this drama then. I feel sorry for the fans of the book. Hopefully there will be a better book adaptation at some other time.
Thank you, you are hilarious. It would have frustrated any enjoyable moments in the drama for me as I would have started predicted these altars soon after they started.
Gorgeous look! Also, I love watching you rant about terrible dramas, very entertaining and someone needs to call those directors out on their terrible, terrible work. A video about sexism/sexist representations of female characters in Chinese drama would be nice if you ever feel that way inclined, I feel there would be quite a lot to cover there :)
I had a very tiring, stressful day. So I de-stress by watching your rant video 😄. Plus, now I know which series to avoid. Guli Nazha is very pretty, but unfortunately most of her series are ones to avoid.
I giggled when you mentioned the drama. I couldn’t agree more 😂😂 but I find myself still watching it. I guess I’m a big fan of any story that has to do with fate, so once that unfolds we’ll see then 😅😅
I haven't watched the drama yet or heard about it... I just saw a poster somewhere.... But *BOY YOUR RANT IS SOO DELICIOUS* ... 😅😅 sorry Idk how else I should put it.... 😁🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 sorry after hearing you.. My brain is dead... I'll not watch this even if the visuals are out of the universe....
Lol, my first reaction was 😅😂🤣🤣. As you narrated more, it reminds me how proliferates Chinese novel out there, I encountered some that did not make sense at all, as if they were written by underage who had not experienced life. I will skip those, unless there's eye candy 😍. Thank you. ❤️
You are 100% correct! It is actually very painful to watch. I am trying to push forward ONLY because I want to see Zhou Jin get her just desserts. All this killing over a golden needle, status, and accolades you don't deserve.

“Her intelligence received no development” 😂
It's just entertaining to listen to you rant😂.
Haha yes i don't even know the drama but i still watch her rant 😅🤣
I saw a comment on Bilibili about this drama: clothes-makers look as important as nuclear physicists in this drama.
Oh my god really...that trope(of the FL/ML's job being the thing that saves the world/country) bothers me in many Chinese dramas...
OK, with yours and Black Orchid comments... I think I know which drama she's talking about before I start her rant video... XD and if it is that one, I couldn't agree more.

@@eerye70 Actually clothes-makers of Tang Dynasty had absolutely the same power and influence as Elon Musk now.
Honestly, Avenue X, you made me choke on my coffee! You even dressed like them to rant about the unfortunate shortcomings of this drama. You are hilarious!
I love seeing her dress up.
LOL "we can always watch it as a comedy"
Kind of glad I didn't hop on this one yet. The pretty trailer intrigued me. At least now if I jump into it, I know what to expect
I'm wondering if this kind of script ever gets proofread or reviewed?? I mean like no one in the production team questioning how ridiculous it is?? like NO ONE?
maybe they're thought, "oh this is a comedy drama, let's go along with it"
@@DarthMalgusSith_Lord somehow it sounds like they did for real 😂 like "hey it's a fiction/fantasy drama, let's make everything not logic"
I totally agree. The female lead is more stupid than when she was young. I liked how smart was when she left the needle and the book her mom gave her in the male lead box and she "sacrificed herself"... that's when I was thinking: the female lead will be smart and courageous.... but ohh boy, when she wanted to tell her identity to the villain, because "she was her mom disciple", even when she was told by her adoptive father not to say a word... she's so stupid that if not for her fellow eunuch, she would've been dead in the second episode...
Great job.
Even if I am just listening to the plot, I still lost many brain cells just listening to how stupid the FL is.
I cant count the number of times I rolled my eyes listening to the plot
I don't even need to watch it. You are the best entertainment.
I cannot stand illogical storylines, it is lazy writing and an insult to the viewers' intellect.
but such beautiful costume. i wish some people could just make a costume compilation cuz i can't watch it hahaha
I really had and still have no intention to watch this drama.. But still came to listen to you anyway, cause, duh - you talking about practically anything is just precious.
