GL Dramas and Movies That Are Actually Gay
I keep seeing GL lists with movies or shows that aren't even gay so here's my list. I've watched and recommend all of these except for the ones I specifically say aren't worth watching. I've commented on the ones I think are still worth watching even if they don't have a ton of GL.
Feel free to suggest any GLs. I'll be sure to watch them and put them on the list if I think they fit. If you're having trouble finding any of these, message me and I'd be happy to help. (I haven't rated any of these because I don't like to do that) (Some of these are blank because I don't really have a comment to add)
