Title Boys in Love
While I agree with some of what you wrote, I got intrigued by your comment that "lack of an interesting storyline…
This series is not about the storyline; it's about boys in love. Most of them are navigating it for the first time and it's not always easy but on the whole, they're doing it rather well. There might be the occasional misstep but it soon passes. Why? Because these boys are thoughtful, they want their relationships to work, and the two main pairs are very different - Kim doing his best to pacify Mon's mother and the outgoing Kit nurturing the introspective Shane. Even with the two teachers there is a similar dynamic and look how far they've got. The boys are juggling their school lives with their love lives and it's entrancing and adorable. That's enough to keep one absorbed and it's all we need.
