I think why CP3 was very immature is b/c the target audience and the source material is very different. The characterizations in CP3 originate from the game series, which work there b/c the game is sort of cartoonish (the characters were mainly in cute chibi mode) and make belief. However, once you move them to a drama, these characterizations suddenly become out of place. I still like Tang Ren productions much better than a lot of the current dramas coming out, but I agree that CP3 is one of their brainfart moments. (so excited for BBJX! solid solid casting and production! ^_^)
I recommend CP1 though. Fresh, cute, and sometimes childish (have to suspend all logic and sense of reality in a few places), but very good production and excellent OST.
