1. [+1,321, -31] JTBC and TVN dramas are so much better

2. [+1,039, -25] Everything has been a flop aside from 'I Live Alone' and 'Alley Restaurant'. I wonder if the PDs for all these varieties and dramas even have a right to call themselves one? What a waste of broadcast fees.

3. [+859, -9] It's hilarious to even hold year-end ceremonies with such a pitiful list of dramas and varieties

4. [+50, -1] I had assumed that I wasn't watching much TV because I was growing older but it was just because there's nothing to watch anymore

5. [+48, -0] I think the blame goes to the PDs for not having an eye for picking fun plots... At this point in their careers, they should be able to read a script and know whether it'll be a hit or not. Instead, they're picking bad scripts and trying to make up for it with the lead castings... They should just get some fresh blood in the system by holding a script competition for rookie writers.

6. [+45, -4] 'Sky Castle' is really jjang. Meaningful plot, complex characters, and anticipation for the next episode at the end.

7. [+40, -0] Too much focus on PPL without care for plot and too many idols in the castings. It's been a while since I've watched a public broadcast drama.

8. [+38, -0] The days of public broadcast are over. It's all about TVN, JTBC, and OCN now.

9. [+27, -0] People aren't watching because they're nothing but boring melo-romance dramas with more focus on having a pretty cast than an actual plot.

10. [+25, -3] Public broadcast dramas are still stuck on the shining prince on a horse falling in love with an impoverished Cinderella. There's nothing for men to watch.
