I have to start off by saying that Riley Wang is so adorable, I could watch him sleep for the duration of the series and still make it all the way to the end. His portrayal of his character was about 5 degrees too chilly, but flashes of warmth humanized him. Female lead was a little bit of a caricature, but largely well done. There were a few very nice fleshed out roles with reasonable acting, and a couple of regrettable stereotypes.

What made this watchable for me was the creativity of circumstances and the changing relationships in both main and secondary characters -- those were nicely done, carefully acted, and nuanced more often than not. I also give it a thumbs up on passing the Bechdel test, which made it more interesting as well. I would rewatch it because I found it entertaining and not a wad of damp cotton candy, as so many of these are.
