Attempts to blend romantic comedy with the backdrop of the entertainment industry, but unfortunately, its execution is mired in sexist undertones. The series revolves around a former A-list actress who has fallen from grace and her encounters with a self-absorbed celebrity. While the premise had potential to explore the complexities of fame and relationships, the show disappointingly chooses to focus on perpetuating gender stereotypes.
The portrayal of the female lead's career struggles takes a backseat to her romantic pursuit of the male lead, reinforcing the notion that a woman's accomplishments are secondary to her relationships. Moreover, the male lead's arrogance and condescending behavior are often justified by the narrative, reinforcing the problematic notion that such behavior is acceptable. This not only trivializes issues of consent and boundaries but also sends a concerning message to viewers.
Although there are moments of humor, the overall narrative fails to address these troubling aspects. It's disheartening to see a series that could have delved into meaningful discussions about gender dynamics and personal growth instead opting for shallow comedic tropes. In a landscape where viewers are seeking more progressive and inclusive content, this drama falls short and leaves a lingering disappointment due to its missed opportunities to offer a more nuanced and empowering perspective on relationships and careers.
