I've watched one or two, years ago but they were cute. How short or long are these that you watch one each day?

They are regular movie-length...1 nd half hours long...there are also some melodramas..they do melodramas quite well...no series is more than 4 episodes long with each episode being 40 mins in length...and so the moments of crisis are quite short and get resolved quickly...but storylines are quite typical...no brainers...but nonetheless cute .

do you remember anything that you had seen??

And when she's here, we're battling deadlines.

Come to think of it...that is actually very true!!! What is wrong with the universe?!?!

So one that I really liked was about a woman whose family owns a car-workshop and she really likes fiddling around with engines. Her husband doesn't like that and complains to her about how she is always smelling of engine oil and grease. He cheats on her and ultimately they break up. He accuses her of not being able to give him a child as being the reason among other things for his cheating...

She then finds a trucker and they fall in love. This one was kind of funny and I really liked the trucker guy...he was like a cute grizzly bear.

I found a series also that I really am enjoying though it is a little longer than 4 episodes. It is 8 episodes long. It is about two Muscovites going to a holiday resort town in the Carpathian mountains. It has a train journey, beautiful natural scenery and two awkward people slowly falling in love.

The ML in this one is staying in this run-down cottage with a clueless builder who has set up a bed-and-breakfast there.
One thing I found interesting was that when the guy from Moscow asks his host what they do for entertainment, the builder guy/host tells him that on Sundays the local theatre plays Bollywood films. Then the Moscow guy says, Oh, like back in the Soviet times!.

Oh, yeah. What I'd watched was similar. I remember one – the lady was a widow or had just broken up and then she meets this guy at a masquerade and hit it off. But they separate before the reveal and then meet at work or something, he's not her boss though. And then get along until it is revealed at the end of some crisis that it was them. There was something to do with a perfume as well – don't recall much else but it was cute, clichéd plot but not cheesy.

I wonder how many times we have had this thread unlocked...usually Rishu does the requesting...this time it was me...
