I keep seeing this show being promoted on various sites...it must be good??
I can't seem to make sense of the storyline after watching the preview though. Not a huge fan of supernatural/fantasy dramas...but might give it a go if the reviews are good.
it is a love story
supernatural/fantacy idol drama

found this article, very interesting... (extracted from http://tieba.baidu.com/f?kw=最佳前男友, translated by Google Translate)
why My Best Ex-boyfriend's Producer - **Wong Jing (王晶) invited/insisted Jerry Yan to play Li Tang.
**Wong Jing is a Chinese film director, producer, actor,presenter, and screenwriter. A prolific filmmaker with strong instincts for crowd-pleasing and publicity, Wong Jin has played a prominent role in the Hong Kong cinema of the last quarter-century.
记者日前专访了该剧的制片人王晶，听他讲述这次邀请言承旭的幕后故事，以及为什么决定让言承旭来出演李唐这个角色。
王晶透露，言承旭虽然在大陆拍摄的作品并不算多，但成绩还算不错。事实上，剧方开始接洽邀约言承旭出演时，也没有十足的把握，“言承旭对剧本和角色非常看重，他觉得这个角色的经历和他本人有共同点，有让他发挥的空间，所以，特地在百忙之中抽出时间和我们、蒋家骏导演、编剧等在上海见面进行了研讨，可以说那次见面对最终合作的促成有决定性意义。几方对剧本角色、项目制作都有高度共鸣，虽然外界对言承旭有一些高冷难搞的评价，但那次见面，我们之间的气场都很契合，完全就是很信任的朋友之间的感觉。导演和演员也都一见如故，他们都是摩羯座，一个是业内的偶像剧教父，一个是偶像剧男神鼻祖，所以促成这次的合作。”
如今无论影视剧还是综艺、真人秀，“小鲜肉”正当道，为什么剧方不爱“小鲜肉”而青睐言承旭呢？
王晶坦言，首先是言承旭性格和角色吻合，“剧中角色李唐的定义是个幼稚总裁，然后有一个慢慢成熟的过程，最终转变成了有担当的霸道总裁。我们在言承旭身上其实也看到了很多未经世事的气质，自从F4出道以来那么多年过去了，他却始终是一个不太世故的人，这其实很难得。”
而“小鲜肉”虽火，却不一定符合角色，“艺人和角色的匹配其实很重要，小鲜肉和成熟偶像所适应的角色是不同的，根据不同电视剧项目、剧本、角色需求都会有不同的选择。之前吴奇隆通过《步步惊心》再次走红也是一个典型的案例，四阿哥冷静而内敛，心思深藏不露，“小鲜肉”未必能诠释出来，当然李唐也是这样一个典型的案例。什么题材都可以适合他们，但关键的是角色是否适合他们。”
Recently, this reporter interviewed the show's producer Wong Jing, listen to him talk about the story behind the invitation Jerry, and why the decision to let Jerry Tang starred in this role.
Jing said that although the mainland shot Jerry works and not that much, but the result is still not bad. In fact, the drama has commenced an offer when approached Jerry starred in, did not grasp the full, "Jerry and the role of a very high value on the screenplay, he felt that the role of the experience I have in common with him, let him have space to play Therefore, specially in the busy schedule for taking the time with us, Jiang Jiajun director, screenwriter, etc. meet in Shanghai in the discussion, we can say that meeting led to the end of cooperation have a decisive significance for several parties play the role, the project has produced a high degree of resonance, although there are some high outside of Jerry evaluation downright cold, but that meeting, the gas field between us are very fit, very trusted friend is entirely between the feeling the director and actors are also hit it off They are Capricorn, a idol is the industry's godfather, a man of God is the originator of the idol, so to promote this cooperation. "
Now, whether television drama or variety, reality show, "Little Meat" legitimate channels, why not love drama side, "small meat" and favored by Jerry do?
Jing frankly, the first character is Jerry and roles fit the definition of "the characters Tang was a naive president, then there is a slowly maturing process, we have to play the final turned into overbearing president Jerry us who actually saw a lot of things without qualities, since F4 debut so many years later, he was always a less sophisticated people, this is actually very rare. "
The "little meat" Although the fire, but not necessarily in line with the role, "the artist and the role of matching is very important to small meat and mature idols adapt to different roles, depending on drama projects, plays the role of demand will have different options before by Nicky "step by step startling" became popular again is a typical case, Si Age calm and restrained, hidden thoughts, "little meat" may not be able to interpret it, of course, is such a typical Tang case. What themes are suitable for them, but the key is whether the role for them.
to be honest, although Jerry Yan is famous in the generation of 1980's, many younger generation in China don't know him much. And in the first several episode, the face of Jerry Yan is a bit old or even not-so-good-looking for many audience who don't know him much. And his accent and speaking style is not comfortable for many audience. All of these make a lot of Chinese audience stop watching the drama after episode one.
@davidmalone, yes, agree that he looked old in the BEST, and his sense of fashion was very weird too.
thought he looked better in Loving.
but can't deny that it was him that this drama slowly peaks too
just curious, how do you know a lot of Chinese audiences stopped watched the drama after ep1?
did you see the ratings?
so you one person representing the WHOLE lot of CHINA?
actually the drama hits over 1.5billion viewing online.
I bet you can read Mandarin (extracted from Jerry Y's FB), please see below.
appreciate it if you quote your words in evidence rather than from your own opinion.

原标题：江疏影《前男友》收视飘红 首挑大梁金句频出由江疏影主演，上海辛迪加影视有限公司出品的都市浪漫爱情偶像剧《最佳前男友》目前正在热播中，而且收视率持续走高，一路飙升至收视亚军。剧中，江疏影突破“学院缪斯”的固有形象，首次独挑大梁成为女一号，扮演毒舌女强人傅方思，频频迸发金句，引起网友热论。不久前刚宣布单身的江疏影，顿时成为无数网友的“梦中情人”。
学院缪斯变身毒舌设计师 唇枪舌剑与ex精彩对掐
江疏影在《最佳前男友》中饰演的傅方思，是地道的“霸道女总裁”，铁腕管理不近人情，事业心极强，工作激情爆表。可叹冤家路窄，在事业最关键的上升期，遭遇了言承旭饰演的前男友李唐，峰回路转竟然成为他的下属，有着新仇旧恨的俩人开始了精彩对掐，不可避免地迸发出爱的火花，而这对旧情人的感情走向，也让不少追剧的观众期待不已。
江疏影饰演的傅方思一角，给人最大的感受就是“金句女王”，效率至上的傅方思拥有极高的智商，面对竞争对手、情敌、前男友乃至自己的家人都是不吝毒舌，动辄就迸出几句超级经典的金句。比如“什么公司啊，能负责的不靠谱，靠谱的不负责！”，“你把你瞎想的时间拿出十分之一来设计的话，你的设计就不会那么烂。”，“当你在生活中遇到问题的时候，有四个绝对有用的办法，不行就分，喜欢就买，多喝点水，重启试试。”让人爆笑不断，傅方思也被网友封为“毒舌界新霸主”。
角色突破成功收视率创高 首次独挑大梁演技获好评
江疏影在《最佳前男友》中勇挑大梁，成为本剧的“笑点、炸点”担当，得到众多网友好评，“江疏影宣布脱离傻白甜，正式迈向演技派。”“看这部剧，就是为了看傅方思喷人，说话太好玩儿了，江疏影调皮的样子真是可爱！”因为傅方思角色的加成，《最佳前男友》的收视率一路高升，成为收视亚军。
在《致我们终将逝去的青春》一炮而红后，江疏影凭借完美的标准女神外形成为大众心中的“学院缪斯”，不过生性率真爱搞怪的江疏影，向来不以女神自居，时常在微博曝中二自拍和网友欢乐互动，赢得众多粉丝真心。今年除了在《最佳前男友》中首次独挑大梁，还有《恋爱中的城市》、《劣质好先生》等诸多作品先后上映，在这些不同的爱情剧中，江疏影都在努力突破角色，有霸道毒舌女总裁，还有痴情女厨师，更有洒脱不羁的烈女形象，可谓是戏路宽广，让观众对江疏影未来的作品有了更多期待。
this drama could have got even much higher number of clicks, but the look and acting of Jerry Yan make a lot of audience stop watching. There are comments about this.

You can probably just simply google the title of the songs. They're all old songs but very lovely (mainly JJ Lin and Li Sha singing together back in the days) and . I believe the creator of this thread also put down the main songs on the first post. I am still trying to figure out one more song used in this drama... hmm..
they are not all old songs， e,g, these two songs are new
