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.

He will also be playing one of Mork's two gay dads in 'My Ride'. I guess he's pretty vers as an actor. ;)

Based on the trailer I expected a series featuring likeable characters.

Is that something that's limited to Oscar-winning films?

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'.

I must confess they make me giggle every time.

I follow a Twitter account that is all about BL news and ratings and they said that Season 2 was announced a couple of weeks ago. :)

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.

And the boys are cute+ .

I assumed right away that Prab was lying. He wants to keep Tri as far away from Chol as possible, and what better way to do it.

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.

I'm going to miss this series so much.

BL sure has come a long way since Love Sick ... this episode was downright cinematic.

Low rating. Tough crowd.

Seems so

Sorry ... "Second Lead Syndrome" ... when you start wishing for the second male lead to prevail even though you know it's hopeless.

I really like his morning look, where his hair isn't all coifed.

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

So not good compared to Season 1.

Sequels rarely are.

Yes! I follow an account on Twitter that is like an encyclopedia of BL and they said that Season 2 was announced a couple of weeks ago.

The series has proven to be a humanistic look at how people should relate to one another -- lots of mutual understanding from talking things out. (Tri even managed to talk very frankly with Prab. More power to him!)

So I fully expect a positive ending but maybe they'll dangle a little cliffhanger in addition to that, to keep us excited about Season 2.

I agree so much. But you knew that already. :)

I'm going to miss this show when it's finished. Thank goodness we already know there will be a Season 2.
