Monster Fail: When Characters "Grow Up" Badly

I guess this is going to be the closest I get to reviewing Monster, because I couldn't take it and dropped it, which is rare for me because I am a finisher.  But unlike all the other stupid shows that I finished when I should have just dropped them (like My Barfable Girl and Boorim School) I knew when to quit with this one.

Escape! There are 30 more episodes!!

Maybe because it is 50 episodes long and I couldn't even force myself to watch episode 20... That might seem like too long already, but I did want to give a chance, because Park Ki Woong, but it wasn't enough.  One of the biggest reasons I couldn't muscle through was that I couldn't like the main couple.  Well, I honestly didn't like the main dude.  He just wasn't right for that role, and the biggest reason was because he was too old and nothing like his younger self.  For the first time, the younger selves were better and everything was ruined when the show time jumped our OTP (and I use that term loosely) into a pair of less likable peeps.

20. Lie to Me 내게 거짓말을 해봐 (2010) Korean

Yoon Eun Hye, Kang Ji Hwan, Sung Joon

Drama Rating: 4/10     Neck Score: B

Well.  This show has a lot of good kissing in it.  That's about it.  Seriously, very badly written.  I have no idea what this show was going for, and it's probably the worst case of "Spazcakes" (my nickname for Yoon Eun Hye) ever.  She's like spazzing out the entire show, and for what?  I dunno.  Her character is just a spaz.  And the dude (as hot as he is, his neck is not my favorite) is so inconsistent.  I swear his character changed every episode.  The other chick was an annoying whiner who really got screwed over in the plot department, poor girl.  So the main couple makes out a bunch of times, he changes characters completely as soon as he falls in love, and then consistently keeps changing characters, and it is a cheesy kissy show.  It's supposed to be a plot based off of a lie, which forces them together and to act as a married couple, but that gets resolved too soon for the whole 16 episode thing, so then it just gets draggy until it finally ends.
