Relevant. Brilliant. Funny.
I am yet to watch the last episode because my broke ass cannot afford a premium subscription on WeTV. So, I have to wait till next week.
However, I decided to write my review to this series.
Story
Brilliant story.
This is a talk show in a show where the protagonist, Dr. Kara Teo, reads a problem from a letter sender about their problem related to sex. Also, it showcases Dr. Kara's own personal problems, and every character's—especially women—own struggles.
The problem of letter sender is a parallel to their current situation.
An episode about anorgasmia portrays a struggle of a woman who doesn't reach orgasm because her partner nuts in a minute or two. Foreshadowing Dr. Kara's 6-year struggle of not reaching climax in bed and how everyone deserves a great cum.
An episode about alterego tells a story of a woman who has two personality: the normal persona, and the kinky one (which is a secret persona). She met someone who loved her as her normal self, and she's afraid this guy would learn about her kinky side. Then, Dr. Kara explained how women are struggling to explore their sexuality because of the patriarchal-set standards for women. And we get to see Cassandra's life who escaped from a misogynistic, Christian household (probably my favorite episode).
And, an episode about a toxic relationship but has great sex. The letter sender is torn between keeping a guy who makes her cum multiple times a day but cannot give her peace after sex. We saw Amber finally realizes that her sexual relationship with Ferdie, who happens to be a fuckboy, should end.
Each episode will give you a time to think and ponder. You get to understand the characters' decisions and struggles.
It also respectfully discusses health concerns like STDs, and HIV-AIDS.
It was indeed brilliant.
Acting/Cast
Angelica Panganiban who played Dr. Kara Teo, certainly the best in her generation. She was perfect cast for this role.
I mean, each cast was perfect for their respective roles. Maris Racal as Cassandra, Kit Thompson as Garry. Everyone!
Music
The musical scoring is also good. But I don't think it's remarkable.
Rewatch value
I will definitely rewatch this. Certainly.
Conclusion
This drama deserves more recognition. Given that this stupid country reeks homophobia, misogyny, and toxic masculinity. On the top of that, the show is very relevant on today's political climate.
There's an episode who made me cackle when a character says: "I want you to destroy my ass like its an oppressive system," I swear to god, Antoinette Jadaone is a brilliant director and a screenwriter. All hail.
Season 2 when?
