Beanies I have a confession to make: I watched a whole series simply because I stumbled on a clip of its final episode on YouTube 🥹

Not my proudest moment but I like that I surprise myself sometimes

    🏆 There are no bad reasons to watch dramas! Are you willing to tell us what it was?

      That’s exactly my embarrassment 🥹

      If it was for a great drama like Goblin or Stranger (which I totally binged in 2 days 3weeks to my exams. NO REGRETS here), I will be loud and proud of myself.

      …. It was for From Now on Showtime 😩
      And average drama at best. Well, I’ll just crawl back into my thinking cave, thank you (because bear, get it? Too much? I’ll stop now 🥹🥹)

        As far as I’m concerned, many here liked that show! Actually, it is in my list of good shows to watch, so no embarrassment there! Actually, everybody likes different things, and many shows that I. Or others like don’t receive positive reviews from Beanies either. But to each their own, they’d say.

        I was one of the beanies who liked it though I felt the finale to be lame. So agree with @mmmmm If anything in DB we don’t judge beanies on their choice of drama.

        Yes as @seeker said I LOVED this drama!! I loved its joy, its sweetness, its focus on love and forgiveness, and its sweet, sweet ending ❤️

    I used to read books like that … even Agatha Christie ones. 🤣

      You are like my mother! My mom always look at the ending first, and if she likes it, she will read it from the beginning. I just don’t understand this. 😅

      Agatha Christie murder mysteries were one of my coping mechanisms during the last throes of my PhD, and I would absolutely look up who the murderer was at least a good 35% of the time. It makes it fun to find the clues, ensures you don’t start liking the bad guy too much (usually), and removes the stress from the read. 10/10 good strategy.

        Wow, this is new to me, but it also sounds good! Thanks for sharing your tip about reading mystery-thriller books.

        Wow that’s so cool @jls943!! I think there’s something comforting about Agatha Christie, even if her books are about murder, because there’s a strong sense of formula (the comfort of the familiar), and we know that good will prevail (the comfort of justice). Fortunately, by the end of my PhD I had dramas for comforting escapism, but Christie is such a good strategy – especially when removing the stress of an unknown culprit!!

          Yes, the formula, definitely! I grew up with murder mysteries and whodunits because my dad has always loved them, so there is almost always something weirdly comforting to me about them, but especially Agatha Christie. I also mainly listened to the audiobook versions, and the same couple of people read most of them, so that was another source of stability and comfort when I really needed it.

          @jls943 that’s such a cool memory and association you have for her books!! And the rhythm of the right narrator can be SO soothing. I love listening to P.G. Wodehouse books on tape narrated by the same person – I love his voice!! 😊

    What should be wrong with that? I suppose you also watched it because it was good – at least I hope that for you.
