So, what are we all watching this week?
What kept you reaching for more (or agonizing when there was no more), and what made you want to throw your remote through the screen? Time to weigh in…

Queen of Tears: Disappointed that Park Sung-hoon is once again playing a psychopathic jerk and he isn’t even bequeathing us with butts to make amends.
Flex x Cop: I am hoping that stepmom is the big bad because she’s the only non-redeemable character in this show for me. Is it predictable? Yes. But sometimes, you just want to watch something predictable and satisfying than be taken on a twisty ride of angst to nowhere.
Physical: 100 Season 2: Lee Jae-yoon is in this and y’all should watch it.
Family: The Unbreakable Bond: I binged this late so I had Jang Nara’s secret to get me through the baby romance. I’m glad I stayed cos I love the samchoon arc. I have a weakness for deadly killers rendered helpless by domestic chores. Anyone know a memory eraser for that ending though?

Queen of Tears: Took me a while to work up the desire to watch this one. I felt a little ick watching a guy putting on a loving front in order to get his terminally ill wife to write him into her will. And even when I look past that with the knowledge that they are obviously going to fall back in love with each other, there’s still the pesky brain tumor that has a 49% chance of giving our drama a sad ending. But here I am, sucked into the story and hoping the doctor is another bad guy who is lying to Hae-in about her illness. Given this cast of characters, it’s entirely possible someone is poisoning Hae-in’s food and paying her doctor under the table to tell her she’s dying.
Wedding Impossible: At this point, I think I’m mostly watching to feel a sense of relief when all the lies are exposed. We’re getting there, now that Ji-han finally knows his brother is gay, but he still doesn’t know Ah-jung is in on the secret. I’m just ready for everyone to know everything so that the external conflicts can be the only obstacles our characters have to overcome.
