Wasted Potential!
Wasted potential. That is what this BL was. Which is such a shame as the premise was initially entertaining. Then it slipped into banality and triteness. Overall, it simply was not all that funny. Sure, it had funny moments, but this is a significant love story between two men that ended up being serious at the conclusion. I wish these childish banal stories would just get serious occasionally. What is truly sad about this series is that all the main actors are very good but who looked like they were forced to tone-down their acting abilities to be one-dimensional, with little character growth. These actors were able to showcase some good acting skills and occasionally got deep into their characters when they were allowed to. At those points, their characters became interesting and something to watch. But it is just so easy to slip into standard formulaic behavioral patterns of pretense of gay behaviors that never happen in real life and only happen in BL scripts.
