The premise of See You Again, a Chinese online reality television series that sends three married couples contemplating divorce away on an 18-day roadtrip, is designed to contrive an emotional spectacle. It is still raw viewing when it delivers.
The show’s key dynamics are universal: power games, family dramas, division of assets; the empty loss as love devolves into hate. In one scene, the husband breaks down sobbing while behind the steering wheel, during a heated discussion with his wife about custody of their son and daughter.
