#Empresses is super drama 🙂 - it’s definitely up there with #Yanxi & #Minglan for well made compelling historical dramas
Oh yes! - lol
He’s the #LegendofZanghai director you championed 😊
How strange to make #MiYue *after* #Empresses - when the latter was already such a successful telling of the story
I wonder what factors were behind a virtual remake? (if it is a remake)

#MissKittyArtWalk starting soon.
The #Army of the #Empresses of #Antifa
Let's clear a possible misunderstanding up. #MissKitty does not believe in #royalty. But considering the non-organizational structure of Antifa, #self-serve your #title and it doesn't matter LOL 😹😹😹

But you do have to get used to the hairstyles for men at that time!
#Empresses & #LuZhen are similar stories of palace survival, but they aren’t revenge driven (& the hairstyles for the men are more normal lol)
I still haven’t watched RRLitP
I’ve seen the first few episodes - but perhaps because I came to it after #Empresses & #Yanxi (& so had already had my fill of harem stories), it didn’t immediately grab me - plus I’ve read #Ruyi is the bleakest of the 3
But I will get around to it eventually 👍
I don’t agree. If the drama in focussed on a strong FL (as it is in #Yanxi, #Empresses, #Minglan, etc), then it’s natural for there to be female antagonists too (though in fact there are both male & female antagonists in these dramas).
I haven’t seen #MiYue, but I loved her in #Empresses. I agree, harem dramas involve exponential amounts of poisonous subterfuge - but there was so much emotion & suspense in the drama that I didn’t mind it. I’m also glad she had another loveline, even though it wasn’t fated to last.
Well it’s Re-entry day iykyk 😉
Blessed Monday, 🦋 fam
Ladies, this one is for you!
#feministsky #queens #empresses #resist 💙🙏
Yes! #Empresses is the OG of palace dramas, with #Yanxi (and possibly #Ruyi, though I haven’t seen it yet) a close second
Another one to check out is #LegendofLuZhen (with Zhao Liying as the fl) - it’s not at the same level as these, but it’s still worth a watch for palace drama aficionados
#Empresses is the best of the 3 overall, but I would still probably recommend #Yanxi as a first palace drama because it is more modern in tone - in the sense of audience engagement & accessibility - and it was made in 2018 vs 2011
But both are excellent dramas
I hear you. This is why I couldn’t finish #TheRiseofPhoenixes
But just so you know, #LuZhen doesn’t have a BE like that. As a palace drama it’s not on the same level as #Empresses & #Yanxi, but I still enjoyed it. It’s one to try out when you’re in a drama slump perhaps
Yes, #Empresses is the OG palace drama, broad, brilliant, breathtaking and brave - but I fell under the more intimate spell of #MingLan which is why I put it slightly ahead on my personal list
She was superb in #MingLan
That’s one of my very favourite dramas - up there with #Empresses & #Yanxi (& #MeetYourself too, tho that’s a totally different drama)
She’s also good in #ShenLi - she owned that role
I liked her in #LegendofLuZhen too, as well as in a modern drama #WildBloom
Part of the issue is the question wasn’t “what are the best 3 cdramas ever?”, but what cdramas we often recommend (without specifying the audience being recommended to).
So for instance, I wouldn’t recommend #Empresses to people who have just stumbled on cdramas. But it would be in my top 5.
