The boys are adorable, especially Moo who I find irresistible; Moo's flirting and pickup lines are the best; and it's light and fluffy. In short, it's everything I look for in a BL series and when it comes to this type of show, GMMTV does it better than anyone else. I'm just puzzled why it's called Only Boo! when his name is Moo. I wonder how long Kang can hold out before he says he likes Moo and agrees to be his boyfriend.

Not only is Khem gorgeous, but since the show began, he's matured and shown himself to be loving, kind, empathetic, resourceful and a genuine team player. Wela is very lucky to have him as his boyfriend. I'm also shipping Seiji and Pan now. The entire crew has put in their all to make the special night a success and this will be the focus of the last episode which will also see a little bit of drama, however, I'm sure it will work out well for everyone.

Cute, fluffy, a bit goofy... these are the right adjectives for this show. It surprises me that so many people are dissing it or even dropping this series and criticising it so much. For heaven's sake, it's light entertainment and as far as I'm concerned that has been achieved. All we need now is for the romance to start but it's looking unlikely at this stage. It will be interesting to see what triggers it.

The story almost came to a standstill but Tai and Kram made up for it with their romantic scenes. Such a beautiful episode and the countryside setting enhances it. Doesn't get much better than this.

Khem's aunt and Madame Freya's sister is nothing but a frustrated, party-pooping, embittered spinster who has nothing better to do than try and close the club with all her frivolous calls to the police to investigate supposed wrongdoings within it. One would think after doing this a few times the police would wake up to her shenanigans and ignore her. She's like those people who gain satisfaction from making prank calls and wasting people's time. It's nothing short of ridiculous and that it has come to the point it has is, on the face of it, absurd. Furthermore, her actions have only alienated Khem more and for her to think that it would convince Khem to come back and live with his father, which he objected to strongly as he has done in the past, is just idiotic. I regard this aspect of the storyline as a misjudgment of the scriptwriters and lacks credulity.

Overall, this was an enjoyable series that led up to a sweet and satisfying ending. The two leads were attractive and adorable together. My only reservation was Achi's conversation with his manager after his relationship with Ji went public when he said that Achi would lose fans, work and sponsors, to which Achi should have replied that they would no doubt be replaced by other ones. A nice touch in the last episode was when Achi gave Ji a confidence boost with his imminent orthopedic surgery and I liked the first song Achi sang in his concert. I gave this show a solid 8.

Oh, dear. So many negative comments. Admittedly, Mew as Uno displays all the charm of a wooden pole and his acting so far is fairly wooden as well, but given his present circumstances which he's not happy with as can be seen with the pained expression on his face, there's really no other way to play the part. However, things will perk up once he starts working at the cafe with the manager who appears to be a fan of his. On the plus side, we're getting two episodes per week.

Despite Yuan saying his love infatuation with Qian is over I don't believe it for a second. I think he's using reverse psychology on Qian and as Lili is now with San Pang whether Qian likes it or not, it allows him to open his heart to Yuan. No one else is in Qian's life for whom he has feelings. All he has to do is become less inhibited and when he does, Yuan will respond with all the fervour in his body.

It may be an understatement but being gay does have its problems. In this particular instance regarding Fueng who is a well-known actor with a big fan base many of whom are girls, his sexuality was of no concern until several intersecting issues put it in the spotlight which then had to be addressed. After some discussion, it was decided that honesty is the best policy in which he was mostly vindicated with as much fallout as could be expected though not too detrimental to sabotage his career. Fortunately, there were people around him who gave him the support he required to get through this ordeal and the press conference he gave was an object lesson in how to counteract any negativity that may arise. Emotionally and dramatically, this episode was well-written and acted, leaving viewers more than satisfied with the outcome.

In the end, it added up to very little after a slightly promising start, after which it pursued the girl in the film, which turned out to be a red herring, and as for Ryo's unrequited love for Hikaru, it remained as such. However, one could speculate that when Hikaru took Ryo's hand and held it in his hand he finally realised Ryo had feelings for him, but even so, Ryo withdrew his hand leaving it all up in the air. It was all very subdued and restrained as if the producer was stereotyping Japanese behaviour making it one of the dullest JBL series I've ever seen - without the BL.

At this point, it looks like it couldn't be anybody other than the prim, disapproving aunt who is behind the constant police raids. What a nasty bitch she is!

I just watched the first two episodes and quite like this show though the romance has yet to begin. Mew hasn't been seen [in a BL series] since TharnType and here he plays a different type of character which he nails. It's rare to have a bilingual series but it works. My main gripe is that the episodes are too short and should be released at the rate of two a week, not weekly.

Regarding the music, it was the night scene with Kram, Tai and the fireflies when we heard the instrument that sounded like a recorder that evoked ATOTS for me as soon as I heard it. I don't know about the rest of the score but I doubt it's Boy Sompob as he only writes and sings songs.

That's the trouble with acronyms: there's too many of them with different meanings. NC meaning "no children" does make sense, however, in this context.

I don't think anybody noticed that at about 28 minutes in, playing in the background on the glockenspiel was the main song from the great Pinoy series 'My Day'. It must have been intentional though why I'm not sure, unless it was to accentuate that Pluem is falling for Prod and Prod is delighted at the development.

The acronym NC - Non-Consensual - is used far too liberally and incorrectly. Most sex scenes ARE consensual and to say otherwise is blatantly false. The term that should be used is NSFW - Not Safe For Work - which according to Techopedia 'is meant to warn a potential viewer that the content is not suitable for viewing in a work environment or near children, usually because because of sexual or other explicit content.' Two guys kissing does not constitute NSFW either, it basically applies to porn of which there is none on any BL show.

The ubiquity of phones and their ability to record video coupled with social media can be so toxic! But we already know that. Then there's the paparazzi who devote their time to film celebrities who specialise in serving up dirt and salacious rumours. They are like vermin and should be treated as such, though I don't understand why Fueng or his manager didn't respond to the question about his sexuality that it is none of their business. Whether you are a star or an ordinary person, everyone is entitled to have their privacy respected. In this instance, the reporter had malicious intent but we don't know why and made a big effort to track down Sarut and bribe him with money to get hold of a 10 year old clip with him Fueng. I mean, really? They were school kids then and it's a time for experimentation. Sarut and Fueng had a brief romance which the former ended because he was bored and decided he wanted to date girls while Fueng discovered he was gay. It's past history and the affair is irrelevant to Fueng's present life... but the gossip papers thrive on this rubbish. As someone said, the drama will quickly pass and a new one will take its place. It is as true for this scene as it is for politics except that with the latter there's a lot more of it. Under the circumstances, Fueng and Krom are holding up under the strain and credit is due to Krom for being so understanding and supportive but more drama will follow until it's all resolved. Stay tuned.

Even for SF, this show was a bit far-fetched with its portrayal of an all-too-human AI robot. That said, I was really into this series and like Yi Ping with whom I have much in common and can identify, feel that if I had my own Ever 9 my life would be happier and more complete. The expected happy ending was arrived at with tears, angst and longing seven years later, thanks to his uncle, immediately falling into the rhythm of life they had once experienced, almost too neat and perfect but aesthetically it makes sense. A beautiful, thoughtful series that made my BL soul happy and content.

For the life of me, I can't understand the fuss that was generated over Ep. 3 which mostly concentrated on Khem and Wela. As the No. 1 Host, Wela has a job to do and he does it pragmatically, sort of with a calm resignation that though it might be distasteful, he plays along with guests as he should, much to the chagrin of Khem who knows that it makes him jealous and when together makes him possessive. That leads to Khem asking Wela to be his boyfriend with the proviso that it has to be kept secret. They seal it with a passionate kiss. All well and good.

Really? It's nothing like Playboy.
