All 6 main roles really need to improve on their acting. The only one who is somewhat better than the rest is Fluke(Natee). Aou (Phupha) is probably the weakest one. When they were at the bar/lounge and listening to Fluke(Saifah) play music he couldnt even give a natural look towards the stage/background. Its like his eyes were looking for the camera and the crew behind it. He didnt even know where to look at.
Book's drunk scenes were really bad. It looked like he had a stroke and couldnt speak. Especially when he was alone with Force at home and they had that close up scene, his facial expressions as he spoke looked more like he just had a brain hemorrhage and was relearning to talk.
And when Book was hungry and his stomach was rumbling, why in the world did they use a sound effect that sounded like he was having an upset stomach and needed to take a shit? It sounded like he was having diarrhea. Same as those "heartbeat" sound effects they add whenever Force and Book are close...The actors expressions dont convey that atmosphere or mood at all.

I partially agree with you. Its not always that cause though. Fish under the Sky aired after Tales of 1000 stars, and the reception was rather good. Im not trying to argue with you or start one, haha. My point is; 1. yes this series is following a well received one but if the acting or story was done right it would still be doing "ok". 2 ,Fans of this show shouldnt be blaming its shortcoming cause of another show. This show does have flaws. 3. If the airing schedule was reversed would this show really have done better? I dont think it would have made the editing or acting or story more liked by the audience

Ppl really need to be realistic; They gotta stop blaming the shows bad acting , editing, or story telling on Bad Buddies. Do they really think if Enchante aired first it would have improved the quality or the acting of the series? In fact it would possibly even given BBS a higher rating cause after seeing Enchante ppl would have been more impressed with a series that had better actors (i know BBS didnt have a great story either) but seriously....Enchantes poor review and acting really cant all be blamed on for following BBS

I wasnt crazy about BBS either. But at least the leads could act. These 2 are really not good actors. IF this is their best they can offer as real life frds imagine how much worst their acting would be with other ppl

If they wanted to downplay his french then they shouldnt have him suddenly throw out french terms or words randomly to emphasize he lived in france so often.

Another bland ep....so when do these newbies start acting well? I dont expect them to act greatly but at least something less stiff. If the leads werent friends in real life I doubt they would be able to carry any chemistry with any other actors as their partners at all.
Even their behind the scene specials were bland.
That product placement for the digestive enzyme....If its for digestion and constipation well the only thing constipated was the acting of the leads
And can anyone explain how Akk was able to know which police station Theo was at? The cop called and said he was calling from A POLICE STATION. Akk literally hung up after hearing its about Theo. So how did he know where to find Theo who was lost? It could have been any of the police stations in Bangkok .

The french and his accent actually dont really make sense. He lived in France for 10 yrs without having gone back to thailand apparently. He should be speaking french better than thai, and he should be having accents in both languages.

it looks fun, but there are no subs. U know its not series right? its a live broadcast of 10-12 gmmtv boys living together and playing games for week. each ep is like 15,16 hours long haha

Hahaha. Someone changed their profile pics here on MDL. I guess more ppl found them to look alike than expected. Hahaha

10 years!!! and I know what u mean...10 yrs in France, which he apparently never left cause he doesnt even know how far his home and the airport are, yet he speaks french with a heavy thai accent, but when he speaks thai he has no foreign accent and speaks it more fluently than french

but Ohm and Nanon can actually act. They didnt need to rely on that angle.

Yes, but Force and Book lack those acting skills. Force is trying so hard to be the cocky bad boy, and Book is trying to be the helpless naive boy. Both dont do it naturally or well. I know its their first series, but they really need more experience in acting. Their characters and the story arent as well written as BB either. And this is all part in the director also.

In theory Theo should get most screen time since it will be 5 guys going after him.

lol its kinda hard for Theo and Akk not to get more screen time. They are the MAIN characters. lol

Personal prediction of how the story unfolds: So we know 4 other guys are gonna try to date Theo. And along the Line Akk starts getting jealous and reliazes he actually likes Theo but doesnt wanna confess cause he doesnt wanna ruin Theo's happiness with the other guys and he isnt sure Theo likes him back. blah blah.....after 7-8 eps of struggling who he should date Theo finally accepts Akk who will be brave enough to confess in the end. I mean this series isnt bad (so far) but the story seems bland. I wouldnt call it boring but there doesnt seem to be any element that will spice it up. (and in my opinion if Theo is gonna be dating 4 guys at the same time and let them compete against each other it kinda makes him a man slut lol)

The main leads might be fun to watch bickering and dissing each other on shows like Safe House and on interviews. But in the series their acting is only meh. GMMTV is obviously trying to promote them based on their looks and long time friendship, but its just a gimmick that doesnt help the show or help their acting skills. Its makes it feel somewhat unnatural. Its like 2 frds are doing a play and forced to act against their nature. The only chemistry thats really there is their friendship but no possible romance.

Im sure it will get worse. Cause they wanna emphasize he lived in france for 10 yrs. Im sure along the series they will have him say stuff like "i love u" or other fluffy dialogues in french

its on YT.

Oh yes, the beret, and riding a bike with a basket. Im surprised his grandmas favorite dish wasnt thai style escargot lol

they forgot to show the street mimes and ppl eating baguettes while drinking wine lol
