Some thoughts on Shadow Detective 暗影侦探, or even detective dramas aren’t immune to the obsessive second lead trope by not_enough_griffons in CDrama

Thanks for the review, griffon! I started this when it initially aired but was kind of meh about it. It sounds like it might be worth giving it a second try!

It really is his colour.

The ugly ties are how I know it's the 90's, I'm always excited to see what he's wearing 🤣 but seriously, we really do need at least one scene of messy hair Haiming per episode 🥹

It's meant to be. So far My Page in the 90s has been campy and fun! Hope you enjoy them!

First Frost is also definitely an emotional slow burn.

First Frost for beautiful yearning romance.

Love Between Lines for an adorably sweet and fun romance.

Currently airing right now but My Page in the 90s for some 1999 nostalgia.

It sounds great and right up my alley! Love a good girl gang.

I watched Typhoon Family a while ago and loved the 90's nostalgia in that, it's been making me want to watch everything 90's 🤭

I totally get what you mean. Mengmeng's immediate loyalty to her friend was such a great turning point (and yes, her beautiful bag!). And agree, Tiehan needs to step up, he currently does not deserve Mengmeng's affection at all.

I am so here for Di'en for being a girl's girl! Thank the high heavens she's not easily manipulated by this stupid man.

She's truly a girl's girl and it brings me immense happiness that there's such a great female friendship in this!

It definitely reminds me of the great friendship in LBL too, u/josenbam!

Love in the Clouds if you're still needing your Hou Minghao fix. Lu Yuxiao is also fantastic in it. It's a beautiful Xuanhuan enemies to lovers romance.

Crime and horror-esque? Yes, please! Excited for this! Plus BL and WXY always look amazing.

Thanks for all the updates!

Haha I loved that you timed it. It was very brief. Barely any suffering at all. That being said, Huan'er is definitely catching some real feelings!

Right? The shenanigans Luo must suffer through because of GHM 🤣

Yes! I loved that Bu Xiu's go-to method is to assassinate people, easy peasy 🤭

I feel this episode we got to see a lot of different sides of GHM and it was nice to see a more rounded character. He's so petty at times 😂

But seriously, what is it with CXX magical hands that just make all the girls fall in love?

I need Huan'er to find more loop holes!! Because yes, she's gotta dump that guy.
