Long but was… Ok could have made the script shorter and better.

This one is a hard one for me. I really REALLY wanted to love it from beginning to end. The storyline caught my interest but sad to say it sort of lost me. I will explain some of the reasons why in “Storyline”.

Storyline - was a bit long and drawn out. The constant get-together-then-breakup drove me NUTS! So much could have been taken out. Sarah was a selfish woman and had not put the best interest of the children ahead of her own selfish desires. The memory loss bit could have gone away. It was unnecessary! (Memory loss is so over used it really needs to be ditched! It is getting old and boring!) So was her “I’m pregnant with your baby”. Come on! Get real… eye-roll! I do like how he did get his memory back and kicked the bad witch out. Was a great scene! (I do have a bit of wicked side to me lol and I was so loving this scene). But… Seriously can you stop writing so many dramas where the parents are over-protective/controlling to the point it is nauseating!?? The dad constantly going on and on about sending her to America was old right from the get go. The birth mother was selfish and so was her father. What he did to his wife and wanting to “stay by the ex’s side till she got better. Oh please let me do this this once!!” I give the wife high marks for wanting a divorce! It was not right the way he acted/treated her over his ex. I was shocked and appalled by his attitude.

So much of the heart ache could have ended if the two selfish parents would have just butted out of their daughters life. The daughter is an adult for crying out loud! Let her make her own choices! To many of these dramas are that way though! It is really getting old. I could sit and pick this drama apart but I will stop here.

Other than those hang ups… I liked most of the drama. I am glad they did not wait until the last 5-10 minutes to get them together. The story IMO could have used some polishing and made it a shorter drama with a better storyline.

Acting/Cast - did a great job. I really did like the main leads and hated those that were against them lol. So for me they did pretty well.

Rewatch - 50/50 for me. I liked it BUT there is stuff I mentioned and stuff I did not that might keep me away. We will have to see.
