My Opinion

If you want to waste your brain cells by watching something with lazy writing, plot holes, bad transitions and extremely overrated romance than go ahead and watch Queen of Tears. This show was so bad I do not know where to begin.
The first episode actually did grab my interest. I was very much interested to know why these two people who were in love had begun to hate each other. To say I was utterly disappointed would be an understatement. They lost a baby and they fell out of love? There were so many potential problems that the couple could have had which would give more depth to their marital problems. But as a viewer you are left with nothing. Ok great I am just going to imagine the missing bits myself I guess
Now the chemistry between these two actors. Either I am blind or the people out there who endlessly spoke about their chemistry are delusional. I saw nothing, not saying the chemistry was horrid, but it wasn’t anything special. I have seen this actress have excellent chemistry with actors and he isn’t one of them. They are supposed to be a married couple who have known each other for years and their romance was more awkward than shy high schoolers. There was absolutely no spark between them. I failed to understand why they fell out of love just like I failed to understand why they were back in love. I saw no reason for either scenario
Now moving on to the side characters. Let’s begin with her crappy family. Why did her mother hate her for so many years? Seems extremely petty. You supposedly love your daughter but it feels like you almost wish she would have died instead of your son. I wont even mention the ludicrous reconciliation between her and her mother. And the brother that everyone on the internet called “golden retriever” is anything but. He is whiny, a loser, pathetic till the end and extremely annoying. Everyone else is so boring they aren’t even worth mentioning.
You sell us on the most ridiculous excuse of a terminal disease that she suffers with in the trailer and turns out it’s not really that important or terminal even. It barely disrupted her life. I will be honest, I did not watch the last few episodes. By episode 9 the show had gotten intolerable but I did try to watch some of it. And then I just gave up, skipped to last episode and watched the last 5 minutes. So go ahead and waste your time with the most overrated show of 2024. Bet nothing can surpass this shit.
