Likeable show, but...
I found this a fun watch all the way, and wasn't as bored at the end as a lot of other reviewers seem to have been; there were some loose plot-ends, but they weren't crucial. And I liked the FL. Yeah, she's a yeller, but she's also a loyal friend and a hard worker, she gets a lot of personal growth in this, and I enjoyed her enthusiasm and good people-skills at work. I also liked that she knew her best friend was kind of flaky and loved her anyway: the sismance was solid here. The supporting cast was fun and the SML was an extremely fun and charismatic character who was really well-acted. I enjoyed him too, but I could also see why she wasn't likely to fall for him. What I wasn't so sold on was the main romance. It's sweet; it's totally plausible given their background; PSJ is a good actor, and he's undeniably drop-dead gorgeous. But it was also kind of boring, because although she obviously cared for him a great deal, I didn't feel the chemistry and I never got the impression that she fiercely wanted him. Ehh, could be my western predilection for strong passions, but I felt that the SML's feelings were dramatically stronger than the main couple's, and that left me feeling unsatisfied.
