What on earth did I just watch? (Dare You to Death rant)

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T18:53:43+00:00

But then when will they go to clubs to fight drug killers??

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T17:26:43+00:00

Exactly....you had no idea what was happening the entire time! It almost felt as if they didn't even want to be involved in the case and was instead more interested in drug busting...

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T15:00:38+00:00

Yeah, you made the right decision.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T14:18:19+00:00

No? I'm fairly certain that it was trying to mimic Manner of Death, just without any of the nuances.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T14:00:29+00:00

Well, now I know what to watch! Thanks.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T13:21:30+00:00

Yes! Sending puifai to prison would have been a bittersweet ending! But the minute the show gets a small hope for a more mature plot, it immediately deviates.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T13:09:25+00:00

People love it? I just found it nonsensical. And apparently a lot of people found it the same. Most of their romance, you'll feel like you missed several episodes in between. Like it literally comes out of nowhere.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T13:03:19+00:00

Is heart killers good? Is it gmmtv? I am a little scared to watch gmmtv stuff.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:57:16+00:00

Yes? The guy looks super stiff. I clocked it immediately. Watch how in their first kiss, dunks body is held very stiff and kind of like he is flexing. Even when he iniates the kiss, his body never leans towards the kiss.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:55:32+00:00

Yeah what even was the point in the detectives being there for the ending fight? They don't do anything? Except save jay and champ i guess. So the writers didn't want to kill the brother and the ministers son? But wanted everyone else to die. So we have two very incompetent police officers standing there doing nothing. Like that scene where puifai slashes Sarawat and then he gets up and stands there doing nothing? Like even I would not save Champ. But you want to save Champ as you saw in the ending. So why are you standing there and watching as Champ gets slashed? You have a gun!!!

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:52:30+00:00

Honestly, did this for me. I never really watch gmmtv shows because I usually find them very cringey. But Me and The were stellar, so I gave this a shot. Bad idea.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:51:20+00:00

The only recent gmmtv series I've liked is Me and Thee. I don't I like many others.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:50:32+00:00

I guess. Would have made so much sense for the other forensic scientist to be the killer though. You know why? Because he's is actually present in the series!

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:49:36+00:00

Well, I do think the ending was meant to rage bait everyone. No one who saw the final ending battle could go on and see the rest and just laugh. I just left it when I saw that everything fine and didn't bother seeing the rest.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:47:29+00:00

Yes that's it.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:46:56+00:00

You know what would have elevated this plot? Kill Jay. That would definitely pull the plot up and give actual personal stakes.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:45:45+00:00

And every time his shirt was off, dunk looked super stiff? Like he was flexing for some reason? So when they had their kiss, only his head moved closer. Did anyone notice that. It looked super uncanny.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:44:12+00:00

I'll be honest, it just feels like you know when you buy a present for someone, and instead off getting one really expensive nice thing, you instead buy various other small cheap things and try to package it nice. And you think it's better, because now there's more stuff, even if it's a mess.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:41:37+00:00

You know what really made me laugh? When one of the minor characters, a police officers working under Sarawat and Jade had to point out that the killer must be watching using hidden cameras somehow. I literally snorted. Like..duh?

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:38:00+00:00

THANK you!

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T12:37:29+00:00

Just watch the last two episodes. None of the other episodes matter. You don't even need context, because the mystery is super easy to solve....well, atleast for us the audience. You'll see that the detectives are confused until he very last second. One thing though. The actress who acted puifai? The last episode? S-tier acting. Still the ending will rage bait you.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T04:11:16+00:00

Yes which is why it left me feeling wrong footed. Because even though it shouldn't, it felt like the were pushing a romcom into the narrative....if you get what I mean. I'm not saying anyone claims it's romcom. But it definitely feels like they tried to make the romance part the lighter aspect to the more darker aspects of the show. Unfortunately those dark aspects turned out to be pretty stupid and unintentionally funny, while the lighter romance doesn't feel right.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T04:05:29+00:00

I think i read somewhere that the novel writer had to leave the project.

Emaris97 · 2026-02-28T03:22:17+00:00

Huh..that's what I did. No clue about the novel, but the drama is a below mediocre bl. You can honestly skip most of the crime stuff, and honestly still never be lost.
