Sadly did not live up to the standards set by season 1…
Legal Mavericks was one of my favourite TVB dramas of recent. However I can’t say the same for season 2. Season 2 had some pretty glaring problems which made me feel destroyed the series as a whole.
Plot:
It started off great but ended off quite horribly. There were 3 main problems with this plot, ranked in no specific order: Romance, Cases, and the Ending.
Starting off with romance. I just never understood Eva and Gogo together as they had absolutely no chemistry whatsoever. I also did not like the fact that they immediately gave Gogo another girlfriend after Never died, kind of downplaying his love for her I think.
Secondly I felt the cases lacked the depth, emotion and excitement to continue watching the show. Special mention to the last case which to be frank did not seem like a proper ending to the series.
Speaking of endings, I was more confused than satisfied with this ending. At the time, I thought they were going to make a 3rd season but after they cancelled all plans for one, it made this ending so weird. I swear 癫姐 deserved better…
Acting:
As usual the main cast acted incredibly, one of the best in any drama series.
Songs:
They kept 心眼 which was so nice as it brought a nostalgic factor. But I have to admit 世事可曾是觉对 was my least favourite song for a while and I cringed everytime I heard it. Massive downgrade from season 1.
Rewatch:
It would be fun to relieve the Hope Man experience but to be honest he is the only one pulling up the 2nd season.
No need for conclusions. I should’ve stopped at season 1 knowing the track record of TVBs sequels.
