Haha, Lovely Writer has an 8.1 rating here and Cherry Magic has an 8.3, so it seems like most people are enjoying/have enjoyed those shows. Interesting that you called them garbage. You are free to have your opinion of course, but I don't think that's an opinion that most people share.

I liked it and I don't get why everyone is being so critical. Like, did they expect everyone to have some kind of angelic reaction when Tian confessed? They are supposed to be normal people, not saints. Phupha included. I thought it was a great episode. Mix did a good job of showing how despondent Tian felt and Earth showed PhuPha's conflicted feelings about Tian including how he felt betrayed. I thought it was well done.

Off to a good start! I hope they don't fuck this one up.

Ok, that makes a lot more sense haha, thanks!

Thanks! Isn't Gene supposed to be a lot older than Nubsib? I thought Gene graduated from college like 10 years ago with Tum and Nubsib is currently in college?

Can someone spoil me on this one? I don't have the time to read the novel. Is Nubsib a con artist trying to get money/special favors out of Gene? Is he looking for a sugar daddy? Is he secretly in love with Gene and knew Gene from somewhere else? What's the secret???

It seems like it was just yesterday that we all watched a whole series and instead of a kiss, we got a high five. Now, our biggest worry is annoying sound effects. Progress!

Also, this show is giving me total sugar daddy vibes, haha.

I just want to take a moment and reflect: we have now reached a point in BLs where people have time to complain that, "the sound effects are annoying." :-) :-) :-). Ah, kids these days, so spoiled for choice. Hahah.

I mean, I still pay for Viki and I watched it. I'm not sure what more support I can give than that. :-). Also, you said a whole country went bananas... Is that something that happened in Korea? I'm not sure what you mean on that one. Did something happen?

haha, I mean, I probably won't!

Boring so far. All of these Korean BLs on Viki have been a lot of production and very little substance. I feel like they are just too short to do what they want to do. If they could make them about twice as long maybe I would have time to care.

I know! Actually, even though I love Tony Labrusca as well, that one scene after the tug of war mess, JC's acting was so much stronger, you could really see the contrast. Tony looked a little bit upset. JC looked destroyed. It was powerful.

It was so good! Definitely exceeded my expectations!

Dang, JC Alcantara has some acting chops. That was good!

Ok, don't tell me. I rented it haha, so I will see in about 2 hours how it all turns out.

Haha, ok, just spoil it, that way I know if I should pay to watch it or wait until it's free. Do they end up together or do they just end up as friends?

So, no shade to Thai BLs, because I have watched them all and enjoyed them, but most of them feel like student productions, with mediocre supporting actors. poor plotting, sound and lighting issues, and low budgets. We love and support the shows anyway of course, because we love to watch and see cute guys fall in love. But this drama actually feels like a real television show. I guess after the success of 2gether, GMMTV has realized they can actually make some money if they invest some real money into a quality production. For example, the parents in this drama are actually good actors, Tian's mom in particular. There was a large variety of sets, aerial shots. Even the intro was cute and looked like real thought had been put into it. I am really impressed. Between this show and KinnPorsche (or at least, based on the trailer), it seems like BLs are getting more respect and more investment and I am 100% here for it. I hope the writing stays strong through to the end. This was a great first episode!

I already have a feeling this is going to be one big queerbaiting. I will be happily surprised if I am wrong. But I feel like they will just end up being friends in the end.

I have no idea what happened in this show. It seemed like they made about 4 episodes and then realized they were going to run out of time, so they tried to squeeze about 10 more episodes into the last 4, and it turned in a one long montage without any time to experience what was happening.

I think they should have just made this a 5-6 minute long music video. The song at the end was the best part.
