I started to post about ratings in August but it kind of lost steam. Sorry, your truly had a lazy spell but someone was curious about the ratings for When A Snail Falls In Love, so was I and here we are.
I haven’t figured out a good way to do this so for the time being, I’ll stick to dramas that have captured my interest. Turns out my tastes are quite mainstream anyway since most if not all of my picks are doing very well ratings-wise.
The Mystic Nine, Legend of Chusen and Ice Fantasy seem to be playing within the same range between 0.477 – 0.6, which is not high we’re looking at popular dramas that rate above 1.0%. Nonetheless, it managed to hold strong at number one and no one can take that away. I can’t say I disagree because while I watched both Chusen and Ice Fantasy in its entirety, I knew it wasn’t good enough to become the next Sword of Legends.
Sparrow on the other hand was much more addictive in spite of its many many flaws and the ratings speak for itself as it reached an impressive 2.486 on the day of its finale while Rookie Agent Rouge trailed at 1.241. I haven’t seen Rookie Agent Rouge so I can’t decide which is better but I should add that Sparrow had the advantage of a headstart.
As the only modern c-drama that I am watching at the moment, When A Snail Falls In Love seems to be getting a lot of love as well inching closer to to the elusive 1.0 with every episode.

I loved Rookie Agent Rouge. For me it was one of the best drama I seen in 2016. Everyone taste is different. I hope that the dvd will come out with English subtitles.

hi no it's not. Think it's on the top ten just because of the number of people searching for it in Baidu.

When a snail falls in love is actually the only Chinese series I'm watching currently. I'm loving it, and have gotten two of my friends to love it too, so I'm glad it looks to be a hit in China too.
