It hurts my soul seeing Step by Step getting trashed for trying realism and characters development, while people are loving series like Love Mate. We're not going to have better bls as long as fans eat up mediocrity and have double standards.
well he messed up theory of love our sky episode and of dark blue kiss
Theory of Love? You mean Puppy Honey Our Skyy episode? And even though this one and DBK aren't his best works, it's still better than a lot of bls out there.
I really liked both leads in their formal suits! Maybe, except for huge bow ties - it could be a fashion though,…
"Katoy" is used to describe transgender women and effeminate gay men. Also, in Thailand fem gays usually use female pronouns and the words "sis" and "girl" to call each other. Pat saying he's gay is to indicate he isn't fem gay.
This is not getting anywhere in terms of plot development. I love Bruce in this show compared to Lovely Writer.…
Are we watching the same series? While we can agree Pat's character's development has yet to happen, don't you see Jeng's? And what about JengPat's relationship dynamics, Don't you see them trying to find common ground? Jeng trying to approach Pat while still keeping the right boss attitude? He's softly courting him. And Pat's jealousy was quite obvious cause why was he so interested in Jeng's love life? Why was he relieved when he learned Jeng is single?
Yesterday I watched Shelter, one of my favorite LGBTQ movies. I knew TES reminded me of something. It was all there: the beach shots and the NC scenes are very similar. I don't want to accuse the director of plagiarism but I don't know what to think about the heavy references to Skam and Shelter...And the fact that he told the actors to watch Skam but not asian bls...
I'm loving this series! JengPat are adorable, I can't get enough of their interaction. Poor Jeng, he's down bad but Pat doesn't understand yet his own feelings and doesn't see Jeng's affection for him. I was sure Jeng was going to tell Pat he's one of his weaknesses! Pat pissed me of today. He's a brat who can't accept advices. Jeng only told him to speak up his mind so people would stop giving him short deadlines. I was glad Jeng told him he needed to control his emotions, but I hope they'll bring the topic back cause Pat needs to learn some life lessons. He's immature and stupid to believe he'll coast throught life easily, with no criticism on his person and his professional competencies.
The work scenes are here to show the characters personalities (Pat's an overanxious brat, Jeng is humble and progessive...), to address important topics such as work/life balance and harassment and mainly to establish the MCs relationship and its progression from boss and subordinate who don't understand each other to coworkers that grow together and eventually fall in love with each other. I love it and I don't find it boring at all. Crazy how people will watch slow series like ITSAY or TMS2 and call them masterpieces but complain when other series offer quality content by setting up nicely the characters background and the romance. Double standards of bl fans are really something.
It can't be playful when one of them feels uncomfortable. Jun told Haram to stop and leave him alone, several times. He felt pressured and didn't want to look bad in front of their coworkers who were insisting they do the love shots and the marriage photos. We have a character explicitly showing discomfort and trying to hide from someone but somehow you're seeing it as him liking the unwanted attention? You can like a series and still see objectively the characters actions for what they are...
So Haram's behaviour is cute ? Stalking and harassment is ok now?Weren't people so turned off by this behaviour they didn't bother to watch SCOY (where the MC didn't even do that much...)? Make it make sense!
I could see past his problematic actions but the story is superficial and juvenile. Who are these guys? What's their background? Why does Haram like Jin? I know they'll reveal this later but they shouldn't have gone straight into inappropriate and unbelievable stuff. Haram is too forceful and acting like a kid. While some scenes are funny, I doubt anyone in their right mind would fall for someone harassing them. Tropey scenes keep coming one after the other with no time for the chemistry to settle.
KhaoFirst's chemistry is amazing. They were even better in this sequel. Knowing their friendship and how they love each other, I think they're not even acting during the emotional scenes. I see KhaoFirst. I loved the skinship! I've never seen a GMMtv series with that many kisses. It's sweet and realistic but also shows that Akk is now comfortable with his sexual orientation. In the prequel, he was uneasy, shy and now he's assertive and all lovey dovey with Aye. This sequel is my favorite with KongpopArthit episode.
It's the best episode so far though I don't appreciate what Ayan is doing (pretending to forget Akk's birthday). I like that the characters are still the them and their issue comes from their different personalities and views about the world. The story is grounded in reality and shows how they're still learning about each other and trying to find common ground. That's what I want from Our Skyy, not some vapid comedy or saccharine fluffly...

Does Pat being gay define his personality? Since he's gay he can't be immature, shy and overanxious?
I see, I get it. I'm also fed up with gay characters acting like victorian maiden, especially when the characters had previous relationships, as it is implied for Pat.
Ep3 was good! The pacing was better (no overlong scenes) and the comedy and serious parts were well balanced. It was a good call to introduce Jeng's pov now cause usually the focus is on the protagonist while the other MC stays in his mysterious aura until the end. I really liked seeing Jeng question his attitude, accept criticism and decide to improve. I wasn't expecting that, let alone this soon in the story. I stan a smart MC! I love the slow burn. Jeng can't hide his crush: he couldn't keep his eyes off Pat at the party. And Pat's drunk confession was cute but also important cause it confirmed they're aware of their attraction to each other. The only downside is the secondary couple. I'm not interested in them and they have too much screentime. They're not bad but I'm not here for them.
So, I recently subjected myself to this drama that was about as exciting as watching paint dry. I mean, it was…
Yeah this series is quite basic, doesn't offer anything new and even copies Skam OG but people are eating it up. I'm not saying they shouldn't love it but it annoys me when a series is overrated and the fans aren't objective enough to point out its flaws. They're saying TES is the best bl ever made when all I see is a classic story presented in a pretty package. Reminds me of series like ITSAY. Nowaday, viewers equate pretty cinematography with quality. If a series is pretty then it's obviously "amazing, never been done before, setting a high standard" etc... I think I'm too old to follow reviews on plateforms like MDL cause I've been watching and reading LGBTQ+ content for 22 years and what seems fresh and amazing to many viewers is imo a retelling of the same common stories.
