Please let there be at least some possessiveness and obsession from Claire towards Bell without the fandom immediately whining about toxic relationshipsš
I hope this show wonāt have obnoxious product placements like GMMTV shows or Next Prince. I remember KP being relatively discreet about the in-show advertising, but how common is that in Thailand?
Not to discredit this show in any way , Iām sure it will be fantastic in the category of social issue and activism drama, but when will BOC try their hand at queer high fantasy/sci-fi/horror? (Have they announced any new lineup for next year?)Give me plots far removed from everyday lifeš
Zee and Nunew are just playing themselves in this show, it feels like I am watching cutie pie again, no different…
Besides the generally bad scriptwriting and shallow worldbuilding,I think that the problems Next Prince has partly arise from it being specifically written for the actor ship (ZeeNunew).Shows that write the script and characters first and then cast based on auditions usually end up being so much better. Actors should be tools to bring characters to life, but in many BL/GLs characters just serve as vessels to promote the actor ship. This is one reason I feel so disconnected from CharanKhanin and many other characters played by established actor combos.
I really really tried hard to like it for New-Zee. Sadly it has become so boring I couldnt even bring myself to…
I started skipping so many scenes since a couple of weeks ago or so. It really is sad they had so much budget but none of that was allocated to scriptwriting or worldbuildingšmany scenes feel disconnected from one another or even completely unnecessary, and the balance between romance and intrigue is not good. Iām not hating on the actors, they seem like real sweet people irl, but Charan and Khanin do not feel like proper characters to me, instead the vibe is more like Zee and Nunew roleplaying as themselves. Ramil and Paytai feel more like proper characters, but even they could benefit from better scriptwriting.
I don't understand BDSM, what are those things that you wrote?
Switch means switching between who takes the role of dominant and who takes the role of submissive. Vers is short for versatile, which has to do with position preferences (some prefer to top,some to bottom and some like both,which is what vers means). A lot of people tend to confuse switch and verse, which is understandable.
This seems like a drama that focuses on social issues like Paradise of Thorns. I think people should adjust their expectations accordingly. Personally, I would prefer more Kinnporsche-esque noir action BLs from BOC (I enjoy escapism over realism),but I respect their choice to try other things. I think Iāll sit this one out, but those who are watching please do not mind the haters!
