After 4 solid episodes, this one was a bit of a let down, but it wasn’t bad. If A, Bee, Sea and Prince disappeared I'd be happy. Once they were gone the epsiode improved a lot. I'm sad we only got a few minutes of WinTeam, but I'm enjoying the slow progression of their relationship. Most shows would have skipped "friends with benefits" and jumped straight to boyfriends. In my manys FWBs feels more realistic for WinTeam.
I also like what's happening between Waan and Tul. Looking forward to next week.
I loved the first 2 episodes. The webtoon is really good and the show is already laugh out loud funny. I'm sad the episodes are so short, but I'm excited to see more.
After UWMA, OhmFluke have been in a lot of crap so I wasn't optimistic that this one would be good. But I really like it so far. The premise is very different than what we're used to seeing and I think Ohm is doing a great job. I did have Oh My Sunshine Night flashbacks when the meteor shower happened though lol.
I love the ruthless interactions between Dean and Win. The whole “f*ck off” comment he gave Win to be followed…
I want to see everything you described. I love backstory and developing relationships with friends/family. Those are often some of the best moments in a series IMO. We're 1/3 of the way done and I hope all of that happens. But even if it doesn't, I'm going to enjoy every WinTeam moment!

I'm ok with the side couples, just ok. But not on this show. Most BLs have side couples and sometimes I even prefer the side couples over the MC (UWMA). But we waited THREE YEARS for WinTeam and every minute spent with others and their developing relationships feels like time that's being wasted. If this was season 2 of this or UWMA, I'd probably enjoy Manow and Pruek awkward romance and Wan and Tul's gamer love. But I'm never gonna be that invested in either relationship in this series. Also, I'd be happy if A, Bee, Sea and Prince all disappeared.

Exactly bestie! This show has so many great lines that show the depth of the characters' relationships. I love the closeness and realistic conversations between the friend groups.
For all my concerns about the trailer and director, this has QUICKLY stolen the spot for best series of the year. Every second with WinTeam reminds me of what made me fall in love with BL all those years ago. BounPrem are in a league all by themselves. There are so many good ships, but not many have such electric chemistry that makes every other person completely disappear.
View is me, his endless squealing just because Win was in the same room with him, is EXACTLY how I would behave as well. Win isn't just a great brother and vice president, he's pretty much an idol and View gets that :D Besides the great brother moments in this episode and the most enjoyable commercial ever at the end, I was 100% here for the conversation between Dean, Win and Pruek. Dean is also a great big brother to everyone!
I'm so glad this is airing right now. There's nothing else on and watching the episodes on repeat is so much fun!
This is an amateur production, but overall I liked it. I wish it hadn't tried to be a BL and just focused on the main story. The situation that Neo is in is realistic in many ways. I liked Tang and his friends, but I think adding them took away from the larger story.
I expect season 2 will be more of a standard BL which is fine. But IMO the strength of the story was in the other part of the story. And I'm glad the writer took a chance on doing something somewhat different.
I waited until nothing was on to watch the discount version of 1000 Stars and for the most part I didn't hate it. With as boring and uniteresting as everything was, it never made me angry, unlike SIMM. The biggest problem here is GMMTV repeating tired tropes that were overdone years ago and expecting audiences to reward their laziness. The casting director should immediately be fired, but the same could be said for the writer and producers.
Since GMMTV created the mold of "perfect" rich straight guys who fall in love with a man and turn into fairytale princes to chase after that man, I'm not surprised they're at it again. But audiences have moved beyond that completely unrealistic type of story. The actors sort of tried, but with no script they couldn't redeem this series. A 12 episode series combining this and SIMM with stories happening at the same time, might have worked. But they wanted to milk this for every dollar they could.
Overall, the last 2 episodes sunk this boring ship. And the main thing I'm left wondering is why knowing that their audience is mostly young straight girls/women, they insist on using their young female characters as nothing more than plot devices. From a dad selecting a virgin to be surrogate(Tonhon Chonlatee), to a friend experiencing domestic violence that helps her friend get a boyfriend (SIMM), to a girl that looks 14 being forced into an arranged marriage. None of these stories were made better by these plot points, but the complexity of each situation was ignored by everyone in the stories. But that's GMMTV, they want viewers to ignore reality, turn their brains off, stare at handsome boys and give them money for cheap merch, fanmeetings, concerts and support food. SMDH
It's one the saddest stories of the year, with one of the strongest and most believable couples of the year. I love the characters and it broke me already. I want to stop the pain, but I'm anxious to see the last 2 episodes.
The other comments made me expect the first 2 episodes to be funnier. So far Noey is the highlight of the series. There's a lot of filler, but it's easy to see how the relationship with the MC will progress and that's enough for me to stick around.
Like nearly everyone else has said, this started off pretty good and fell apart in the middle. By the end, I was checked out and didn't care about the couple's relationship anymore.
The first couple of episodes made me excited for a unique plot with interesting characters. It felt like we were finally going to get a good supernatural BL. I liked the family and wanted to spend more time with them. Pluem and Kawin's relationship peaked in episode 4. I guess they spent a lot of time workshopping for that episode and just went through the motions for everything else.
Once Seenam was gone, the show lost its strength. As the family continued to leave we were left with a series of boring SLLLLOOOOOWWWWW conversations between the "main characters". Episode 7 and 8 were pretty much an epilogue with conflict just to fill the time. It felt contrived and pointless.
I wish Kawin had been a side character and not the lead. I can't recommend this because the story isn't strong enough to fill 8 episodes, but it's also rushed and leaves out the interesting parts of the story.
My heart didn't know that I needed more Our Skyy, but I'm sooooo glad this is happening. I can't wait to see more PatPran, AkkAyan and most of all PhuphaTian!!! Not sure we need all 8 ships, but I'll watch it either way.
Babiis are truly the luckiest fandom. I didn't dare hope for an OG series in 2023. But I'm soooooo grateful that we're getting one. Can't wait to see them in a lighthearted story again :D
Also, can we stop with casual "BDSM" in every other BL?!?!
