This series sucks! But, I'm watching it anyway because the BLs are slim pickings so far. This is another Mame smh f*cked up series. I guess it's just a matter of time before we get Mame's classic rape, or sexual assault twist! LMFAO!!!!!!
I'm sorry. But that ending had more plot holes than a screen door. I realize it was done for fan service. But, it was still as silly as hell. Once again, an otherwise okay series cut down by lazy writing. The Thai BL industry is becoming so "cookie cutter" crazy that honestly, it's nowhere near as fun watching BLs like it was just a few years ago.
Idk, it did make sense to me. They both are very aware that they are literally criminals who murdered multiple…
P.S. There are many of us (members of the lgbtq+ community, non community fans, and even fanservice fans) who wait and welcome to see BLs evolve beyond its fanservice trop-driven and stereotypical past as most other media does. Just one person's opinion.

Totally agree. And using your logic, true criminals would've probably fleed and took their chances (with both life and love). Also, less we forget, Kant and Fidel ARE also criminals. Let me see, I'm not up on the criminal laws of Thailand. However, I'm sure aiding and abetting two assassins, breaking and entering, kidnapping, etc. are also crimes. Finally, if gmmtv wanted to add the prison aspect, why didn't they add the court-room drama aspect? What Fidel and Bison pleaded guilty to multiple murders (wihtout a trial) and only got (5) years? Come on. That plot is an even sillier idea.
Do you mean Bison and Fadel taking the plea deal and surrendering? From their perspective, 5 years jail for murder(s)…
Possibly. But good writers might have come up with a plausable more action-based ending to this series first season, such as an "escape cliffhanger" plot for example. It would appear that the series is hinting at a season 2, so make a season 2 worth it. The series began with action adventure, threw in the BL romance and should probably end with action adventure. But gmmtv, in its infinite wisdom, had the penultimate ep. be this lovey-dovey ep. in which they just give up and surrender?? Then, if there is any remaining action adventure, ti will a scripted, made-up prison plot, with probably one of the characters injured in a cliffhanger, which is pure trope by the way. However, it gmmtv wanted it to be that "love conquers all" kind of ep. (which is fantasy fanservice), then it would make perfect sense to do it the way they did. All of you may disagree, but I stand by my opinion.
I'm sorry for the being the odd man out. But, ep. 11 made no sense, even for a dramatic pause. I guess the fantansy is that everyone is so in love that they're voluntarily going to jail. That's a BS plot that was done probably for fanservice. There were many better ways to be a penultimate ep. than this. Shame on you GMMTV!
From the MDL ratings, it looks like folks either really liked it or really disliked it. Hmm! For me, I'm not really sure what I think about this series. There were things about the series that I liked (such as the friendships), things I disliked about it (such as the cringy controlling stuff), and some things I'm still on the fence about (such as Earth's and Bas' acting in this series). Either way, it was, IMO, an ok series.
It was kind of light-hearted, kind of romantic, and kind of comedic. There really wasn't any toxicity (other than the cringy creepy way Jo treated North). I think that part of the plot (Jo/North) rubbed me the wrong way the most, even though I thought their pairing was the most interesting in the series. I said "interesting" not "good" or "best." The other thing in this series that I think was a downer was the number of episodes and the pacing of the episodes after episode 7 or 8. I kind of thought that the story could've been wrapped-up in mucdh fewer eps.
Finally, I think the series would've been far more interesting (and a little bit more entertaining) if the series had stayed clear of the well established BL tropes (i.e., med students/engineers, dominant/submissive, and wealthy/poor). Also, what seems to becoming an extremely potent trope that s developing in BLs is the compulsive, almost obsessive desire to stalk, take secret pics, search online, and post anything under the sun on social media. It may be true that social media has become a dominant and highly influential force in many societies, but BLs seem to take it to a whole other and extreme level.
Hmm! If the "preview" was accurate, then there's only a couple of ways the producers are going to pull off this season 2: 1) Some kind of supernatural intervention. Remember, the original Pit Babe had the supernatural vibe going anyway -- characters with powers, special abilities, etc. OR 2) Charlie faked his own death, possibly Tony and/or Way faked their own deaths as well. Actually, I guess it could be some combination of both ideas. I guess we'll have to see! LMFAO!
We're into ep. 7 and this series is still going back-and-forth with the "maybe/maybe not" relationship of Po and Thame (with the added "whatever" from Jun). The plot (if there is one) is starting to drag. IDK, but something is missing in this series.
