King of Dramas: Episode 8
So funny. It’s time to get the whole gang under one roof and on one production schedule, which is about as impossible as you’d think. It’s a clash of inter-drama egos more than outside interference (for the moment anyway), which means yet another uphill battle for our team of all-stars, has-beens, and rookies. Needless to... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 7
It’s a regular media circus, and Anthony gets to be the ringleader in yet another strong episode. I keep running into this problem where I love each one more than the last – wait, is that even a problem? This was an hour filled with everything I love in a good show – tension, payoffs,... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 6
It just gets better, in a show that’s quickly climbing up to the top of the currently airing crop for me. Team Anthony tackles the surprisingly grave task of finding a director, and it should come as no surprise that Anthony’s reign of power has earned him much more enemies than friends. Numbers may not... More »

Thing vs. Thing: Actors playing actors
javabeans: Not all meta is funny, but actors making fun of themselves always hits the spot. Like Siwon opening up a twitter account for his King of Dramas character Kang Hyun-min, who resembles nobody so much as, perhaps, Zoolander. Though I suppose Eric and his alter ego for Myung-wol the Spy come close. girlfriday: Eric... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 5
It’s time for the ideological argument of artistic integrity versus commercialism to come to a head, with Go-eun and Anthony standing on opposite ends of the very, very wide divide. We know that both these things have to coexist, even though Anthony would gladly have one be sacrificed completely for the other. Er, wait. Artistic... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 4
This drama is really shaping up nicely, and this is another strong episode, filled with equal parts humor and suspense. This show accomplishes the uncommon feat of taking its relatively small stakes and making us care about them, even rooting for our characters’ successes with pounding hearts and bated breath. In the scheme of dramaland... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 3
It’s war, and victory lies in the acquisition of one lovably dull Hallyu star wannabe. There are guns, towels, and even gun-towels as Anthony and Go-eun track down their leading man, with every new length they go to even crazier than the last. If things are this tense now, how is anyone supposed to make... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 2
A solid start to a funny, well-crafted, fast-flying drama that has just enough real feeling to balance out its satirical humor. Which I love. I was a bit on the fence after the first episode, which I liked but not whole-heartedly, but Episode 2 was enough to get me onboard. The drama has all the... More »

King of Dramas: Episode 1
King of Dramas may not have started off with a ratings bang, but this first outing proved to be a zippy and surprisingly nerve-wracking look into the crazy world of drama production. There’s straight-laced humor interwoven into the life-and-death stakes, providing plenty of fun in a very polished package. (Seriously, the show looks great.) The... More »

Even more stills from King of Dramas
I’m getting a kick out of the stills for the upcoming showbiz comedy drama King of Dramas, due out in a few weeks. They feature some pretty clear character types from the get-go, and when you put them all together in one combustible drama space, it’s bound to be disastrous for them and funny for... More »
