I'm really into Thanapob in this series
I was most intrigued by Thanapob in this series. Thanapob(Kan) truly impressed me. He totally outshone his co-star. The suspense, moral dilemmas, and the epilogue to the story are also worthy of high praise. This series is one of the rare cases where the final episode is actually interesting to watch. Usually, series end with a drawn-out happy ending, but the epilogue in this one is more like something you'd read in a book. The script and the story are interesting, but throughout the series, there are often questions about the characters' motivations. In my view, this is the director's fault. It's their job to ensure that the characters' actions on screen appear convincing and well-reasoned. Despite this drawback, the series is simply fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised by Thanapob's ability to transform himself. I've seen him in Midnight Museum, but I wouldn't have recognized him in this series at all. If you like an actor but can't recognize them in different roles, then they're a good actor.Was this review helpful to you?

Constant contemplation
It is truly remarkable how well-crafted this story was. There are quite a number of charcters that really get in-depth characterisation although this story is only 8 episodes long. We truly get to see the juxtapostion between savings lives and caring about a person's life. Anesthesia is a controversial topic, and I think this drama portrayed the polemic adequately. And although Tew and Kan never agreed on it, there was a kind of mutual understanding, bcs they were both headstrong in their beliefs. That final reveal truly brought all the emotions from the last 7 episodes together for a final bang. truly impressive, pensive and rewarding all at once.Was this review helpful to you?

BL baiting at its worst
BL baiting at its worst. It's hard for me to be kind towards this series which took a serious subject and minimalised it. The avoidance of the romance made the final concoction even worse, because the inherent conflict of love and death is the stuff of the real world. In the end, the creatives wimped the story into a simplistic crime story. Saving the characters' struggle with the ethics of euthanasia to one scene at the end only made the whole thing worse. The actors were good and deserve a better vehicle for their smouldering good looks and physical attraction.Was this review helpful to you?

Not bad, just bland
In the world of Sammon related series, which now I’ve watched 6, Spare Me Your Mercy is better than DFF or Bite Me, but it’s no Manner of Death. Its biggest flaw is maybe being the most boring one, even with just 8 episodes.The cast is by far the best part about this series. JJ and Tor were the perfect choice for Tew and Kan. Their individual scenes and most non-romantic scenes together were always great.
But I feel like the script got in the way of the scenes where we needed romance/feelings. The romance feels extremely rushed and forced. It could’ve worked in a plot where every move had second intentions. Which maybe was the idea, but not with a great execution. It’s a bland cat and mouse dynamic. No one is ever two step ahead. I never understood if Tew was too gullible, stupid or just pretending to believe everything Kan was saying. Tew caught Kan in lies several times, but always turned around and came back to Kan. So I have to say he’s half gullible and half stupid.
Unfortunately, by the end I feel like Spare Me Your Mercy is basically a watered down version of Sammon’s very own MoD or the sublime HIStory Trapped. It kinda would make more sense, since I never really believed their true love, for Kan to never confess and the couple to end up apart.
I’m really curious to read a Sammon story and find out if her endings are all super rushed as in the adaptations or the shows she acts as a screenwriter.

The best
This is without doubt one of the best BL Thrillers. Amazing on every level. If you are looking for skin go to GMMTV shit.This aint it. So fine, so important in what it is trying to examine and these actors deliver! I am still reeling from it.. Do yourself a favor and watch. Yes there are other BL's that start to examine the thriller terrain but they really go there in this one.. Tul and Max come to mind but this is head and shoulders above unless you are just looking for skin.

WATCH IT
There’s a difference between murder and what Kan did, at least in that it was done with the patients’ full consent. I mean, they were all sick and were going to die soon anyway, and euthanasia is just putting an end to their suffering. So I don’t think it’s a bad thing.I don’t really have much to say about the couple, since the focus was more on the suspense, but you could still feel something between them—and there were even some cute moments, like 🤏🏻
I expected a bad ending almost from the very beginning, and that’s kind of how it turned out, though it really comes down to perception.
“I love you, Doc,” he says as he’s driving Kan away in handcuffs, and that was the end. I almost climbed up to the ceiling, to be honest.
It’s also listed under the “mystery” genre, and either I’m perceiving it differently or there isn’t any mystery there at all.

I want a season 2
In the beginning i wasn't 100% sure if i was going to like this one but i was very pleasantly surprised. the plot was very much thought out and though i feel could have gone farther into the story ( i say this about everything tho, it might just be a me thing, i might want too much info ). i had to take a step away from watching at one point just to decompress from the whole info dump that was dropped. The open ending is one that has soooo much potential to make another season. I know that probably will not happen, but a girl can dream. based on how Tew has reacted in the past to the situations regarding his mother i do believe that what is implied at the end does happen. this would be a great opening to another season because it opens so many doors and possibilities. The show was overall amazing, and as someone who is not a big fan of thriller or suspense this one was really good. I think the character development that we see throughout the whole story was also very well done. yeah, this was really good and i hope to see more in the future. :)Was this review helpful to you?
Where Right and Wrong Blur!!!!!!!
I loved Spare Me Your Mercy. It really puts you in a dilemma about morals — what’s right and what’s wrong — and doesn’t give you easy answers. Even after it’s over, you just sit there in silence, thinking about everything. It’s that kind of show. The chemistry is intense, the emotions hit deep, and the whole story just stays with you. This one doesn’t play safe — and that’s exactly why it stands out.Not for everyone — only for people who can actually think, feel, and keep an open mind. If that’s you, don’t skip this one.

The Main point of the Story !
I love every detail about this series especially the law doctor wants to point out. Law doesn't have heart and I get what he meant. If someone asks me do I agree with doc say before I watch this Series, I might not sure but after this series, I was super sure I agree with him. This series literally tells me something that I haven't think of. It was a whole new message and I love that. For the acting, I don't think I even need to say. The Main leads and every support roles really nailed their roles. About the romance, the director knows what he's doing tbh. The little glance makes me blush which is crazy cause I have been watching bl series which contain NC scene tho. So this is work of art I will say. And ofc not everything will happens like we all want. I have one word for ending scene , that is a masterpiece. I don't wanna spoil but the ending scene was really detail and makes you feel something for a week. After all, I really recommend everyone to watch this. Trust me it's worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?
I NEED TEN MORE SERIES OF THEM RIGHT NOW
Watching Spare Me Your Mercy was the highlight of my week. Every Wednesday and Thursday, I eagerly counted down the hours until I could immerse myself in its beautiful story and unforgettable characters. The chemistry between the leads was absolutely magical—every glance, every touch, and every conversation felt real and raw. The story itself was so compelling, blending emotional depth with moments of tenderness and tension that kept me hooked. The acting was another standout—each performance brought the characters to life in a way that made me deeply care about their journey.One of the most thought-provoking aspects of the series was Dr. Kan's struggle with euthanasia and the moral dilemmas he faced. I empathized deeply with his pain and inner conflict, and it made me reflect on the importance of compassion and choice in such difficult situations. While I understood the necessity of him paying for his crimes, I couldn’t help but hope that, after serving his penance, he would find peace and redemption. The idea of him and his love finding their happy ending someday gave me a bittersweet sense of hope amidst the tragedy.
Now that it’s over, I can’t help but feel a void. Life feels a little emptier, a little quieter, without the anticipation of a new episode. This show wasn’t just a series; it became a part of my routine, my joy, and my heart. I know it will stay with me for a long time because shows like this don’t come around often.

A story about mystery, romance, and death
Spare Me Your Mercy is an exceptional BL drama that blends romance, mystery, and moral dilemmas into a deeply engaging story. Police Major Wasan becomes suspicious of an unusual rise in terminally ill patient deaths, including his own mother’s. His investigation brings him closer to Dr. Kantaphat, whose compassionate nature hides deeper complexities.The relationship between Wasan and Kantaphat evolves naturally, balancing romantic tension with emotional depth. JJ Krissanapoom Pibulsonggram (Wasan) delivers a solid performance that fits his role, though his expressions can feel restrained at times. Tor Thanapob Leeratanakachorn (Kantaphat) shines with his portrayal of a thoughtful and empathetic doctor, creating a character that feels both real and relatable.
The plot unfolds in a rural setting, offering a refreshing change from typical dramas focused on wealthy characters. Its pacing keeps viewers hooked, and the resolution ties everything together beautifully. The themes of love, trust, and morality are explored thoughtfully, making the story both heartfelt and meaningful.
Visually, the series is captivating. The cinematography captures the natural beauty of its setting.
With strong acting, a unique setting, and a storyline full of emotional weight, Spare Me Your Mercy is a must-watch for anyone seeking a drama that goes beyond romance to tackle deeper human issues.

Kept me guessing till the end - A testament to crime BL
What a mind blowing series. Crime, mystery, thriller, ethics, police, medics and some queer romance, this had it all.The plot is fantastic. It has almost no plot holes (except the main character acting like a fool that one time with the texts). The story is well written, well thought and well executed. It is amazing how I was so invested in finding the culprit and kept on guessing one by one yet each of the guesses came with their own twists. Till the ending ep it upheld the premise and the meaning of a true crime mystery series. It talked about such an important topic in modern medicine. It left me conflicted at the same time emotional. Sammon is undoubtedly one of the best writers Thailand ever had.
The direction was precise, compact yet managed to show every character in depth. The color grading brought the vibe of a thriller mystery. The choice of scenery, realistic sets and the attention to even the most minute detail made it a pleasure to watch. Loved how they captured the original sounds instead of adding random background music. Made it feel like I was in the realm. The casting is probably one of the best I have seen. The supporting characters felt very much like real people.
Tor (Dr, Kan) is one of my favorite actors and he once again proved his versatility through this. JJ created amazing chemistry with Tor. The actor playing Boss was splendid. While Gandhi and the actress playing nurse On are veteran, they once again captured my heart. Fantastic acting by the cast. It was so thrilling to see most of the roles being played by actors I have never seen on screen.
This cannot be put into the box of just a crime mystery series or simply a BL. This is something that will make you question yourself one more time.
