But, the rest of the seasons didnt come close. Winter in the first series makes it !

How many dragging minutes do we have to watch her smoke a cigarette, drink a glass of wine, look out at the sky, etc. In any episode, virtually nothing happens. There is virtually no plot. Placing every scene in the dark does not make it interesting just dreary ! The details are weak and inconsistent. However, apart from the main character, the acting is sufficiently good to make the characters believable which is one relief. It is simply a drama of a group of people who are essentially lost in life. So what's new ?

I find the criticisms of chinese born readers interesting but not unusual. Very proud people and those that have immigrated and usually unaware of how them have been indoctrinated. Most are unaware of the truths of much of post-war china both internally and with its neighbors. Of course, their are many dramas criticizing all countries in the western world , US and European. and any dramas containing non-english speakers always have questionable use and pronunciation of the foreign language involved. The use of french, polish, swedish, russian in english dramas are simply laughable. so this odd use of chinese in this drama is just normal. Try listening to the use of english in chinese movies by actors playing the role of westerners. we all should not take offense so easily. nothing critical is intended here in my opinion of the chinse
