...imagine thinking that the couple who pole-danced in underwear, kissed on international tv, announced their love for each other on international tv, ran through the airport to embrace each other, traded engagement rings, kissed those rings, pair skated together in matching outfits with those engagement rings on...was boring.

Like what, did you want them to fuck on the ice??? What more could they have done? They did more than your average shoujo romance couple does. They wept and fought and made up and grew better because of each other. We’re we watching the same show?

Imagine understanding that other people have different tastes to you. Were you watching the same other people?

The OTT romantic stuff doesn't work because the characters doing them are unengaging and shallow - Viktor far worse than Yuuri, to be fair - and the relationship between them, on screen, remains a constant fog, an amorphous blot of "it can be whatever you want it to be" (word of god, remember). What "development" there is comes across as weird and incongruent to the situation. You can't have both "but it's so natural" AND the pole dancing at a black tie event.

Other people elsewhere have gone into the problems this show has with characterisation and the relationship between Yuuri and Viktor in far more detail than I can be bothered with here. I have no interest in telling people what they should or shouldn't LIKE, but please consider that the show MIGHT, just MIGHT be facing these criticisms because it was honestly badly written.
