I’m not into drama, really.

I just find social interaction so interesting, which is not usual for an Aspie. I love how dramas involve relationships, secrets, lies, gossip, love, hate, emotions...all of that real life sort of stuff. I get so emotionally attached to the characters and can empathise with them.

Does the OP have an appreciation of Shakespeare? Lots of drama in his plays. Some pretty first rate movies have been based on his plays (unfortunately some terrible ones, too).


Actually no. I find Shakespeare rather boring and too serious. I prefer more modern drama like TV drama.


How About Shakespeare's comedies, then?

I like comedy, musicals and drama. I like child drama more than adult drama.

I like Asian dramas, soap operas, and serials, so you're not alone on liking Drama TV shows. I'm not currently watching any, but I might finish the two series I've paused on during my spring break.

I think we should compare Asian drama's as it would be fun :) I'm currently in middle of my Father is strange.

I can generally watch anything but horror. I do favour dramas/comedies/romance though.

I'm not sure if I count as someone who loves drama... I usually find the soap operas where drama is the main genre to be rather childish. I mean, it's common that there's a conflict that starts from a tiny misunderstandings and lasts several episodes, while all that needed to be done to prevent it would have been a little communicating. That's just so ridiculous to me no matter how I think of it... I know it happens in real life too sometimes, but I still think it's stupid.

On the other hand, I love following the relationships and their developments between characters from interesting series where the relationship drama isn't the main focus. Guess the soap operas just try too hard and make it too over the top for my taste.

I like drama as long as I can actually follow what is going on.

I like some drama but i don't enjoy reality tv. I like historical/fantasy settings most.
