The Good, The Bad, The Not-so-Ugly

Well this was definitely a mixed bag. I can't say it's the best thing I've watched this year, but it was slightly better than the average contemporary C-drama with its reconstitution of many standard tropes. Unlike many series of late, I actually watched the entire drama. Of course, caveat, I am already biased toward shows that examine the relationship of technology and people. Still, let me tell you what I thought. What did I...

LIKE?
*some actually meaningful content exploring what it means to be alive through hospital case scenarios as well as AI vs. human tension
*showing the challenges of parent & adult child relationships from both sides rather than black and white, right & wrong
*the FL's natural altruism and kindness that wasn't ridiculously extreme, just thoughtful; her earnestness that wasn't ridiculous and naive--she was actually clever sometimes
*the lack of a malicious 2FL intent on ill will for the FL

DISLIKE?
*polarized characterization of corporation(s) seeking profit without morals or care for individuals
*underlying encouragement of stalker-ish tendencies....when someone says they don't like you, pursue them relentlessly in the name of love & just ignore what they say
*glorification of excessive drinking with FL not remembering previous night and frequently over-drinking
*trite and overly relevant moralizing hospital cases (man unable to choose, brother living for brother)
*and yes, this is completely about me, but the AI expert's desktop computer screen mis-spelled UPLOAD as UPLAOD. It drove me a bit nutty to see it repeatedly.

FIND NOT SO UGLY?
*the coldness of ML was moderated by genuine, broader expressions as his character developed
*the FL's blunt insistence on not taking advantage of the 2ML's obvious affection and multiple offerings
*the scenery with travel to rural villages, a glacier, the sea, a resort and even just the city skyline
*the relationships of colleagues at the hospital (depth and not just caricaturized extremes)
