Title Naughty Babe
There's a lot of explaining to do. I gather Kon Diao's dad is hoping that when his son marries Hia Yi, it will come with a big inheritance but Kon Diao appears to be estranged from the rest of his family and the father has it in for Hia Yi, though why I don't know. Did the father have Kon Diao's car tampered with which Hia Yi inadvertantly drove? If so, why would he want to kill his own son? I realise finding that out is the reason Hia Yi is pretending to still have amnesia and his assistant Aon is helping with that, but is Aon secretly a 'double agent' as it were? Then there's the incident with the tiger when they were both children and it appears they were both there but I think Kon Diao doesn't remember he was there with Hia Yi but after Kon Diao talked about it, it triggered a panic attack with Hia Yi. It could all be somehow connected but I don't know. I'm just perplexed at how this part of the storyline is developing and how it fits together. It all needs to be cleared up.

Title Only Friends
If the writers are as brave as they claim to be, they should make Sand and Nick the endgame.
Frankly, I don't see Sand and Nick getting it together as boyfriends. They are just platonic flatmates. In the preview for the next episode, it seems that Ray is finally going to get his chance with Mew, though I doubt it will last and he could very well return to Sand while Mew will return to Top. As for Nick, I think Boston was developing real feelings for him. Nick is head over heels in love/lust with Boston and is devastated with the sudden breakup. Boston, the unrepentant playboy, is responsible for earning the ire of both Top and Mew and causing them to break up and allowing Mew to respond positively to Ray's overtures of love. Boston is now on the outer with nearly everyone, therefore, it will take time, but I think he and Nick could get back together again and I sincerely hope they do.
On Crazy Handsome Rich Sep 22, 2023
The words I think that best describes this series are puerile and crass, on top of which the dubbed voices are execrable, made worse so that it is often difficult to tell when characters are speaking or hearing their thoughts out loud which are usually given a different acoustic, but not here. Lee and Frank, the two ML who were previously in Love Syndrome III, should be frankly embarrassed to appear in this tripe. By the end of Ep, 4 the situations characters find themselves in are becoming more contrived and ridiculous, bordering on stupidity. Finally, there's the introduction of a fourth rich brother, a familiar character actor from other series whose appearance here borders on the grotesque. The only redeeming feature is that there are just two more episodes.
On Wedding Plan Special Episode Sep 20, 2023
I'm more than happy with this special wedding episode. It completed the series well and brought everyone together in a beautiful setting for the nuptials. Everyone should be so lucky to have a wedding like this.

Title My Universe
I thought Ep. 5 was boring and uninteresting. Hopefully, its conclusion will be less so.
On Venus in the Sky Sep 17, 2023
Ep. 3 was interminable and much of it was unmitigated drivel. The opening sequence in the cinema which continued the ghost theme when Venus and Sky arrived home was one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. I find Venus (an inappropriate name for a boy as she is the goddess of love) objectionable most of the time. He and Sky have almost zero chemistry. The question is, can I endure seven more one hour episodes of this stuff?

Title Naughty Babe
This is as bubbly as the finest French champagne; part 2/4 was especially brilliant - the combination of the razor-sharp script, acting, music and sound effects turned it into a comedic masterpiece. It is indeed the sparkliest diamond of all BL series that have aired so far this year, bar none. (Upgraded it to 9/10 as well.)

On Only Friends Sep 16, 2023
Title Only Friends
With a group of friends like these, finding and retaining love, even defining it, is an extremely messy business, particularly when they comment and interfere with each other. It makes being single look like a wise choice.
On You Are Mine Sep 15, 2023
Title You Are Mine
Excellent first episode. It had me laughing, which is a good sign - the combination of a good script acted to its full potential, as here, will definitely pull in the viewers.
On My Universe Sep 13, 2023
Title My Universe
Playing catchup, I just saw the first two double episodes and preferred the second one by a long shot, the first being a bit confusing from the beginning with Kim suddenly finding he's inhabiting the body of Pluem and it only gradually emerging that he and Khao were boyfriends before his untimely death and having to navigate his way as Kim back into Khao's heart. The second was a lot more fun and has its origins in the world of opera, such as The Marriage of Figaro by Mozart and any number of operas by Rossini and Donizetti, with their secrets and deceptions in convoluted plots involving a cast of many side characters to carry the plot to its inevitable conclusion where true love triumphs in the end. Unlike the operas, the main couple in Marry Go Round is gay and are about to have a wedding they are concealing from their respective parents, but one of the mothers suddenly finds out about it which heralds all the situations that follow, mostly involving a bevy of brothers and sisters, one of them being a fujoshi, until all is suddenly resolved because of a wedding ring. Love is love, no matter which genders are involved, and stories will always be written about this eternal human condition.

Title Naughty Babe
I'll tell you why I think this is better than a lot of the fluff emanating from Thailand, Taiwan and Korea right now: it has a strong, dynamic storyline (albeit with a few holes), a great cast and enough twists and turns to keep the viewer interested. Once again, amnesia plays a role, like it or not, there's a compelling back story between the two families and the incident with the tiger, both when Hia Yi and Kohndiao were youngsters, to spice it up. The action moves along at a great pace. There is very little to criticise as far as I'm concerned so just sit back and enjoy the ride.

"did i do something to you last night? i was afraid that the alcohol made me do something" (teaser) whoever said…
Your second last paragraph sums it up perfectly. Beautifully expressed.
On Jun & Jun Sep 9, 2023
Title Jun & Jun
It was cute, certainly fluffy and in the end didn't add up to much. I mean, Jun and Jun meet again, there's an attraction between them, it grows and they (secretly?) become boyfriends due to their positions in the same marketing company. The cast was very attractive, the production and script were adequate and it made for easy viewing.

Title Why R U?
is it good? should i start!
I don't think it's as good as the Thai original but it's worth watching, however, it takes a while to get into it.

Title Why R U?
What is wrong with the audio??????? I get that the acting is bad but why is the audio so terrible?? Did they get…
Where are you watching it? The video and audio are high quality on what I'm watching, and of course, using Chromecast to my TV so the audio goes through my hi-fi in stereo makes it even better.
