I really liked how they worked the OST songs into the actual plot. That was a nice touch, almost as if Yi Chan and the band musicalized their own story.
God bless you Jess, at long last the honest words that needed to be said
If you were not amazed so far by Park Eun Bin’s acting ( watch Kings Affection , Hot Stove League) you are a alien. When i saw the trailer for this show last week i didn’t care for the synopsis but when i saw her i knew its gonna be a great show .
So far the writers have got most things right on autism ( hope they don’t go Good Doctor route and try to cure it) .
For a while i though it was not Eun Bin’s voice ; but it is her I am amazed how she could do a male role and in six months change the body language and tone completely .
I have no patience for legal arguments so i skipped the court scenes but i loved the rest of the episode.
An amazing start! I'm really glad they are bringing some awareness on how it is to be autistic.
That was lovely lovely lovely. I hope the rest of the episodes are just as charming, wholesome, and compelling.
Also the ship!! So cute!! Their dynamic drew me in even in the trailer and I'm so glad they're wondrously adorable in the drama as well.
And the WHALES: I want to know why she loves them so much! ("Just because." is 100% an acceptable answer.)
Good finale. Something that apparently it hard to achieve nowadays
I already miss Phil (aka Modern Family’s MVP) :cry::cry::cry:
It wasn't the most memorable finale ever, but it also didn't need to be. When you have an ensemble cast this size, it's difficult to incorporate all 11 main players in a heartfelt goodbye that encapsulates everyone's feelings of family, togetherness, and finality. After having watched this, I read an interview w/ co-creators Steven Levitan and Christopher Lloyd, where they explained that they were both fans of finales, where the characters were saying goodbye, b/c that's what the audience was doing, as well, and I agree w/ this premise.
The last montage was of the camera panning over framed pictures of all the characters taken from the past 11 years, finally settling on a family portrait taken in the season one finale w/ their white outfits splattered w/ mud. This was the only keepsake Christopher Lloyd took from the set, fittingly saying of it, "I thought that if we had to land on one image, that's a good one because it is sort of metaphorical: Families are messy, but beautiful at the same time."
"Life is full of change. Some big, some small. I learned a long time ago, you can fight it or you can try to make the best of it. And that's all a lot easier if you've got people who love you helping you face whatever life throws at you.”
It was a beautiful finale. Nothing truly groundbreaking but I thought they did a great job wrapping the show. So many sweet moments – the Dunphy siblings, Phil and Jay, Claire and Mitch’s misadventure, Jay learning Spanish, and the ending shot - leaving that porch light on, symbolism of how Claire and Phil know their kids will return at some point.
I liked it for the most part but I think the ending seemed rushed and it’s a little unrealistic that so many family members are leaving at once. I’m glad they didn’t go with Jay passing away and I really loved the parallels between the first and last scenes of the show - Phil and Claire going over their calendar, Jay and Gloria at the football match, and Mitch and Cam on a flight. I expected Cam to top the first baby reveal. The Lion King one will forever go down in history.
A hugely missed opportunity not to address the documentary element. We'll never know why these people have been interviewed for 11 years.
Yess we finally getta see the captain fight
Captain Yami... more like, Captain Yummy. Also, is his homeland Konoha?
Simple yet therapeutic. It does not have that complicated kind of plot but you will learn a lot about how to be a decent human being.
