He will also be playing one of Mork's two gay dads in 'My Ride'. I guess he's pretty vers as an actor. ;)
Not sure ... I don't know if they've even started production yet. But at least the big scare is past us and they were able to get funding and the series will come to be, and with the same cast.
What were you expecting? An Oscar-worthy production?
You make some excellent points. I guess with Pi being judged negatively for his appearance all his life, he has come up with a strategy of 'hit them first before they get a chance to hit ME.' Unlearning that will take time.
It's great to see your review for this series because having made the journey with you, I know how how much it meant to you and how well you could see past its flaws. You had the insight to appreciate everything that was good about it.
A friend of mine just started watching the series. I've tried to give him a spoiler-free sense of what to expect but if he starts to get put off by it, I'll have him read your review.
Such a good show. In this episode I really thought Gene saying to Aoey, "You're really gay?!" was funny, and Tiffy…
Poppy is great. I have seen him do comedy roles and that seemed like it would be his contribution for this series, but here he showed how he can take a sudden turn with his performance and deliver something dramatic and powerful.
That wasn't even a kiss, it was just a peck. GMMTV at it again. At least it's not a hi5.
If it had been a real kiss then that would have reflected poorly on Mork. Pi was drunk and didn't know what he was doing. I'm glad it went only as far as it did.
The brothers are so unlikable. Why does Mork feel any attraction for Pi at all? And Duean is just a big-mouth who apparently is destined to fall for Meen (yeah, that makes sense). I ended up skipping that unbelievably tiresome 'water bottle' sequence, and having Duean scream into the camera is not my idea of entertainment.
(By the way, the water fight in 'Love Sick' was 100x better. The writer for this series was dumb to even tread there.)
I'll keep watching but only because I know that eventually Mork will sour on Pi and that's when Pi will start to resemble a human being.
Lowered my score from 10 to 7. I haven't been this disappointed since '2gether'.
Hmmm, since the comments are confusing !!!! Is it worth watching it ????
It's got a super-positive outlook on human nature. There's none of that fake conflict that goes unresolved for multiple episodes. People talk to each other and work things out.
So that was fine - not the best ep, but they did resolve a few things and Nick finally had a decent day. I hope…
Arrgh the music! I had to stay ready with the volume control the entire episode.
In keeping with the benevolent perspective of the writing, the teacher confesses honorably and accepts the reply, and the taker of the deceptive photo is exposed but redeemed.
Something tells me that Tri and the twins might become an item by the end of the series.
I think that the possible-player boy might actually like Nick because he admitted that he's a player. I don't think players self-disclose like that with the people they want to take advantage of. :) Given the track record of this series I think that they're setting Nick up to have a love interest who will take his mind off Prab.
Waiting for a series where the main lead is gay from the start, and he says the opposite of "I don't like guys,…
I literally said "Oh my god" out loud when Li Cheng said that. It feels so outdated now, and for me this series is already hanging on by a thread because in general I can't summon any amount of caring for the two couples. There's also zero effort by the screenwriter to make the stories reasonably plausible.
But to your other point, actually there *are* series with gay leads. Not always both leads, but at least one identifies as gay or at least shows zero inclination towards the opposite sex.
- Second Chance - Fish Upon the Sky - Manner of Death - ITSAY - He's Coming to Me <-- in this one, the character discusses his sexuality with a friend - HIStory 2: Right or Wrong - Love with Flaws (it's a side story, but still ...) <-- both guys identify as gay
Miracles do happen!

Btw ... I, too, gave it an 8. :)
Is that something that's limited to Oscar-winning films?

And the boys are cute+ .

I'm going to miss this series so much.

Sequels rarely are.
