Our Skyy 2 (2023)

some hits, mostly misses

if I had to pick, the ones worth watching, to me the episodes are from Star In My Mind, A Boss and a Babe, and Vice Versa. they give what I wanted from their series and then more. there was growth, some development to the characters, their stories, and, dare i say it, some actual entertainment.

The Eclipse episodes were half-assed at best in terms of the writing and it upset me a lot they were given some weak story filler that, being brutally honest, felt like a waste of both first and khaotung's time and efforts. i also wanted more from NLMG. their episodes were good, though the beginning just felt like a car ad (get that coin, boys), but it just made me wish for pondphuwin to get another series. i missed all of these characters a lot. the MSP episodes were just okay, it was basically a speedrun of the show with a new song + merch drop. didn't hate it, just was boring.

When it came to the ATOTS episodes, which were the ones i was really looking forward to, ignoring BBTS characters made it so much better. I personally found no charm to both stories getting put together like this, so I didn’t really care for the BBTS story at all. it felt like a waste of time having their episodes if they were just going to be flat as they were, time that i think we could've spent giving earthmix the flowers they deserve for acting in one of the best series gmmtv ever made. a positive is that i did like seeing drake and jimmy give us their ghost ship one last hurrah, but that was all for me.

either way, there’s not much in terms of being groundbreaking here if that’s what you’re looking for, it’s all a mess to some degree and a lot of wasted potential for some of the better series from this company. i do have to say that VV and ATOTS were the only ones that genuinely made me tear up. which leads into me harping onto how i hope that we get to see more of earthmix, they've truly become my favorite pairing within the general bl world.

A sweet continuation for many of the stories.

The series was a lot of fun each taking it's moment to add some nice stories and development. Loved seeing all the great characters again, especially ones that we missed. Let me brake it down.
Story 1) Never let me go was a joy to watch, I love there chemistry and was a nice touch and change of pace to see them in a different time period and develop from that story was fun and lighthearted.
Story 2) Star in my Mind was another joy to watch, they have great chemistry and showed some good romantic side with there sweet friends. I could have done without the Typhoon side story about him and a girl, would have been nicer if the gave him a new guy instead.
Story 3) The eclipse was a fun story to see develop, show the problem that at times couples face in relationship, but show by standing by each other and see a new viewpoint things can work out. Very nicely pt together.
Story 4) Vice Versa was a favorite of mine as the have great chemistry and are always fun to watch. Love how they show them still growing and showing the different sides of love and to aways make everyday count. I especially love seeing them take care of the sweet boy. Give a feeling of love of family.
Story 5) My school President was so much fun. I enjoyed seeing the cast come together and feel that fun loving energy they give. This was a great story to see the characters change places and see new was of seeing how each how have played it. Wish it was longer as the chemistry is great with the cast. Seeing some of the side characters switch places was so funny and a great way to show the actors.
Story 6) A Boss and A Babe was full of laughter and fluff. It's super lighthearted and takes you once again on showing other sides of the characters. Having the leads switch roles to really show how boss and intern both have it hard in different ways, walking in each other's shoes literally. It had a smiling at moments to see both reactions to seeing how no one has it easy.
Story 7) Bad Buddies, I know the combined this and story 8 together, which I really wish they had not. Sadly I am not a fan of Bad Buddies and did not enjoy the actors together. This always felt more like bromance then boy love. It was a nice story for them to travel and show them in a new adventure, but it felt stale and did not work. Just looked like friends on a camp trip. This was for me the only story I did not like out of the whole series.
Story 8) A tale of thousand Stars was one of my favorite BL it is so great, would have loved a second season. The leads have great chemistry and makes you always adore them. I loved seeing the development and story unfold between them yet again. I hate that they shared to story with he cast of Bad Buddies but the very last episode stole the show for me. It gave us the ending we always wanted to see happen. I wish a few more of the old cast came back as well. I absolutely loved this episode for them, was such a great way to end it, the only down part was it made me want to see them more and wish for more of there story.
