Reunion: The Sound of the Providence (2020)

It's a disappointing conclusion to the 1st season, not through any fault of the actors or the production, but due to the omnipresence of censorship. It's aggravating to see such an awesome drama forced to re-write the entire last segment so that it would make at least some sort of sense after CC-scissorhand went through it. We can clearly see and hear where it had its scissor on. From mid-part onward, words started to not match the lip movement. A clearly sign the dialogs were re-recorded. The story flow suddenly became choppy. One scene didn't logically lead to another. Important clues seemed to fizzle away to oblivion. All were signs of re-editing existing footage to remove certain "offending" plot line.

I give the production kudos for effort, especially the special effects. They were awesome! They look so real, they merged seamlessly with the real world. I can honest believe that their world is real with all those stuffs in it.

Acting wise, 10/ 10. They cannot pick a better cast.

Great story, and I need more!

Honestly, I am a fan of Zhu Yilong and I came to support him. That said, I am so very glad that I did and have zero regrets!! I've actually started to rewatch it with a few friends who I got interested in it, and they are loving it too! I'm still enjoying it the 2nd time around while I get them caught up to me.

The first few episodes kinda set up the story and it gives you a few puzzles to start piecing together. After that, it’s just full speed ahead from one puzzle to the next! I often find myself thinking, why did that happen or why is X person doing that?! It really keeps me interested in what is going on and waiting for the next clue to pop up.

The acting is amazing, and you can tell the main characters had fun together shooting this, and they have great chemistry! They, also, keep things very interesting with their character's different personalities and long time friendship. The characters have made me feel every emotion you can think of and I never get bored watching an episode.

I am fully invested in this show to find out what, exactly, is going on and episodes can’t come out fast enough! The special effects are wonderful, the story is complex enough to keep you interested, but sprinkles in humor, sadness, horror-esque moments, and some tense scenes. Some of the settings are just amazing to look at, and overall it’s a beautiful show.

Some of the places where they left off, and the credits come, in have me clamoring to click the next episode to see the continuation, and it’s awesome watching the main characters start to put together all the pieces of the puzzle. I 100% recommend this if you enjoy a kinda historical, tomb exploring, horror, adventure! :D

Edit: I have completed watching this whole season and I'm not really disappointed in any of it. I'm just really sad that we don't have a date for season two yet. Overall, I really enjoyed every episode. I was always excited to get to the next one and I just have a great time watching it. I hope we get back to what's going on with the other group in the next season, and I hope the next season is very soon.

TLDR; I really enjoyed this whole season and can't wait for the next one. I feel it's worth a watch! :D
