First Impression: Your Third
Overall: I'm giving this the benefit of the doubt. 12 episodes about 45 minutes each. Airing on iQIYI https://www.iq.com/play/your-third-episode-1-onlibx4ku8?lang=en_usContent Warning: punches, episode 1 13-14min a character thought another character had killed himself - the scene was written as comedy
What I Liked
- chuckled a few times*
- a character is intelligent and has a backbone
Room For Improvement
- *most of the comedy was a miss for me
- the first episode was too long, could have been half the time
- effeminate male/trans woman hypersexual caricature

First Impression: Mr. Fanboy
Overall: I'm cringeing a bit, but hoping it improves. 12 episodes about 50 minutes each. https://www.iq.com/play/mr-fanboy-episode-1-1dyrv206y2o?lang=en_usContent Warning: panic attack
What I Liked
- tension
- showed other acting pairs with cameos
Room For Improvement
- the stalking thing in episode 1, he was in the wrong but then threatened to drag the company on social media so then the company caved
- fan stuff is a bit cringey

got there in the end (vertical series)
Overall: spent too much time with a love rival. 30 short episodes. Aired on GagaOOLala.Content Warnings: past child abuse (episode 1), non con touching, non con kiss, mental health struggles, past death
What I Liked
- the co-op living situation (brought back memories when my co-op application was rejected likely because I was a feminist I.e. I didn't/don't think women dancing in a club should be groped by random guys which a male resident thought was fine if the women were wearing short skirts...)
- the guys tried to be supportive
Room For Improvement
- the one resident's wig
- both guys looked at his back when he was visibly upset/not wanting them to
- the non con kiss
- love rival took up way too much screen time
- poor communication that was only resolved in the 2nd to last episode

First Impression: Make It Right 2026
Overall: nervous with how the plot will progress. 12 episodes about 55 minutes each. Airing on Viu.What I Liked
- felt like high schoolers
- easy to understand premise
- realistic bed head
Room For Improvement
- nervous about love triangle
Note: the characters are both in high school. The two lead actors were 21 and 15 when they shot this. This does not bother me right now, but if it gets explicit then it will because a 15 year old actor should not be doing NSFW scenes and especially not with an actor 6 years older.

First Impression: MuTeLuv
Overall: an anthology series with 7 stories in 28 episodes about 45 minutes each. Looks like at least one BL and one GL story. Airing on GMMTV's YouTube channel https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLszepnkojZI4UHXk5xPSrFFfY_9tX6BKo&si=-1Cwc5qXktOLLdLSEpisodes 1-4? Hi by My Love - Sea and Keen, academic rival plot
I enjoyed the supportive friend. Not all the humor worked for me.
