This drama is a few hours of story stretched into fifteen episodes that end on a cliffhanger. Its characters are okay and could be interesting, but there's no story at all. Things just happen one after another in an orderly fashion.

Characters: The two main leads are the highlight of the show. They have good chemistry and seem to be having fun with the terrible script that’s been given to them. Lord Qian Sui is an outwardly cold man with a heart of gold, while Chen Youyou is a quite silly, but energetic and quick-witted street girl. This leads to a generic, but cute romance in a very unrealistic ancient China setting. The supporting characters don’t get much screen time, and while they’re not bad, there are no stand outs, either. They’re all pretty much one note.

Comedy: Lord Qian Sui is a fake eunuch, who doesn’t want to be found out, while Chen Youyou is a girl, who marries him and is ordered to learn everything about him. Him trying to hide and her trying to catch him unawares is where most of the comedy comes from. It’s quite ridiculous and involves the two characters falling on top of each other more than once, but it’s all harmless fun and will delight anyone who’s a fan of Chinese absurd romance comedy style. However, the drama takes a hard left halfway through and starts using second-hand embarrassment and extremely awkward situations as comedy. It doesn’t really work and is almost unbearable to watch from time to time.

Story: It’s quite amazing how the scriptwriter of Oh My Lord! managed to run out of material within five or so episodes. The premise of the story is ridiculous, but it works fine enough at the start if one knows what they’re getting into (an absurd yet hilarious romcom), but it doesn’t last long. The story begins to meander before even reaching the halfway point, and it doesn’t get better. It gets worse, instead. A lot worse. The last couple episodes are one cliché followed by another without any break until someone who’s seen at least a few Chinese romcoms could say the characters’ lines for them. It’s a total snooze fest.

Overall, I enjoyed the start of the drama, but finished it only for the characters to see their happy ever after (which I didn't get because it was a cliffhanger ending that promises a second season). I would not recommend this unless someone wants to waste some time with a light-hearted, mindless comedy that lives and then dies on clichés that have been done to death in many much better dramas.
