idontwanttothanks

Wow that was fast! Thank you so much. I was having the darndest time trying to find it.

Does anyone know what the song playing about 16 mins in the last ep is?

I am really looking forward to this one. It looks like such a fun time. And Title AND Papang - those two are in freaking everything I swear.

I haven't seen Summer Night but I have long thought that them pigeonholing him into the same type of role with Joong has screwed him over. I don't really think he suits the kinds of roles I've seen him in thus far - THK seems to be doing different though so I am excited. I think that they'll all do well (and frankly I'm really jazzed to see them all supposedly playing different from the usual).

Yes to all of this! The destruction of that relationship was written on the wall from episode one, and I'm a little sad (but not surprised) by how everyone is reacting to it. It felt painful and real - these two were each other's first real relationship but they weren't right for each other, which is only something that really started to become apparent when outside stressors started intruding. The way it wound up happening was a little messy, but frankly not even half as messy as it could have been (I've seen way worse go down irl). And I like that they both sat down and FINALLY talked to each other, even if was too late to salvage a romance I think they can still come out of it friends.

Pie is my second favorite after Jane, she's so good!

I dunno this show is just doing it for me. If I have any real quibble it's that Ryan is kind of a nothing of a character, which is annoying when Gun is such a good actor and when I am liking Off so much in this one.

I can understand that but I don't necessarily agree. I don't think an explicit apology was necessary there - Judy clearly came to check in on Ba Mhee and to reassure her that everything between them was fine. They'd both been drinking and got swept up in a moment, a mistake was made, but it wasn't something unforgivable imo.

It would feel different to me maybe if it seemed that she showed up to try to get with her or something, but I didn't get that vibe.

Is this my favorite OffGun vehicle to date? Yes I think it is. I am really enjoying this one and Jane is my absolute favorite character, which I did not expect. Normally I'm kind of meh on Off (I did find him charming in Cooking Crush), but I don't know what it is here, he's really shining for me, to the point that I am kind of annoyed that Gun's Ryan is sort of a nothingburger.

As for the others - View is knocking it out of the park. I'm really loving her, but then I tend to love her in whatever so is that really surprising? Nah. Pah is fine, but a bit emotionally immature. Look, I feel for Tae (more on this later), but it isn't his job to take it out on Ma Bhee at their place of work. I know they're young but I get irritated when people let their personal issues mess with the job. It's why office romance shows tend to get on my nerves. I do try to let it go as much as possible but I just find letting pettiness get in the way of someone's job distasteful. Maybe I'm just old.

Now, the Tae and Ma Bhee situation. I'll be frank, I could see this break up coming a mile away, even without the Judy thing. Ma Bhee was putting in all the effort and Tae next to none, and he knows and acknowledges that. It absolutely was not just that couple of days, and pretending it is does a disservice to what the show has been doing with them this entire time. I do not think that Tae doesn't care about Ma Bhee, but I do think that it was easier to let her do the work and so that is what he did, and he never really thought about how it must wear on her to be the only one ever trying. The fact that he wanted to show up for the anniversary is great, but the truth is that just managing one day a year is also pretty shit behavior as a boyfriend. I do like that he knows that he was part of the catalyst for what happened with Judy and for the breakup - it was very mature of him to acknowledge it, tbh.

As for Ma Bhee, she is full on to the point that it can feel smothering, and she obviously wants that kind of devotion returned. I'm not sure Judy will manage that either and Ma Bhee has a bit of growing up to do for sure, but I do get where she was coming from, when she seems to be the one trying the most. She should not have kissed Judy while still seeing Tae, that is messy as hell and not really fair to do to him when she wasn't trying to talk to him either. I've seen this kind of stuff happen often though - there's a certain type of person that does seem to go from relationship to relationship. I think that she idealizes Judy and I kind of do expect a crash there, mostly because no one is as perfect as Ma Bhee wants to think Judy is at this moment. And I think that Judy should not have kissed Ma Bhee back. Judy herself doesn't owe Tae or his relationship with Ma Bhee anything, tbh, but she still shouldn't have done it since Ma Bhee was in a drunk and vulnerable place. Mistakes happen and I'm not crucifying her for it or anything, and I do think that she regretted letting the moment sweep her up too. Honestly I thought that it was all handled in a really believable way. I've seen things go down pretty much like that in my own life. It's painful because it's realer than I think we're used to out of something like this. It sucks that they couldn't communicate properly until it was over, but it also feels true.

I am a little sad I wasn't watching this from day 1 like everyone else, tbh. I really do like it way more than I ever expected to. It's really hitting my sweet spot.

I agree so so much and honestly, for the first time ever I'm finding him great. Not just good or passable, but genuinely great. Let Off do more of this.

What was wrong with Only Friends?

I do have a few issues with fixed pairs, but even worse than that I think it is the typecasting. They not only stick these people with the same pair they then give them a certain dynamic and often refuse to let them deviate from it. It's so limiting. I would be fine with the same couples if they'd just give them a variety of roles to play.

To be fair to TKH it does seem to want to be shaking up the "normal" dynamic between both pairs, but I can already see fans expecting it to be the same as always. Maybe it's us that does it - the need to have the same story fed to us fifty different ways rather than allowing anyone to step outside the dynamic we like to see.

Is this page going to be nonstop fanwarring about which cp is better or more popular? Asking because I usually come here for filming updates but I'm already feeling like I should find somewhere else to go.

I don't see why we have to pit them against each other or fight about who is better or more popular or most loved. The mock trailer looked like a fun time, I think they'll all do well, I'm very excited to see Dunk and First especially be in the more flirty and assertive roles. I will lose my entire mind if Khaotung is playing a sweet himbo. Joong so far looks to be the one playing most like what I am used to seeing from him, but I like that he's supposed to be the older, more jaded brother. I really hope that the final product matches the vibe of the mock trailer because it was a bit chaotic but also looked like a fun time.

I want a rom com. I want to just shut my brain off a little and enjoy all the pretty on my screen. Because I mean. Just look at them all. :D :D

I am loving this, tbh. Yak and Dee are hilarious and I am cracking up at their progression from ONS > FWB > Fake Boyfriends (with benefits).

I honestly don't know if Ter is as slimy as I perceive him (there's a little bit of slime regardless) or if I just look at his face, see Tonhon, and start seething a little.

I like the actors, not sure about the dynamic.

I think it was a solid enough show. The couples were cute enough and I adored Aylin and Ongsa with every fibre of my being, but I do feel like it was a little clunky in how it tried to explore certain issues, like Aylin's whole deal.

I also feel like it suffered a little from being the first full length GL from GMMTV. It seemed clear they didn't want to get too messy or tackle things too hard, lest they put off the audience. Which is a bit sad because I would adore some messy lesbians please (Pluto and Us will hopefully deliver on that front). That said, I want this to be wildly popular so that more GL are made. Because the more that are made, the more variety we'll get. BL didn't start off with a ton of variety either.

It was enjoyable fluff for the most part, and that has its place for sure. Also I'm still chuffed that the little ship that could from Bad Buddy (the only ship I cared about, if I'm honest) spawned Milk and Love an entire GL of their own. Good for them.

Rumour has it they'll be starting workshops soon

>>if P'Jojo can make ForceBook look like a real couple<<

Why did this make me laugh so hard. I don't hate them or anything but I will never get over Enchante and them leaving a lot of room for Jesus between them,

I've said it before, though - Jojo is good at getting good performances out of actors. I have faith that he'll do so again. I'm mostly weirded out by him working with FK again so soon.

This is one of my most anticipated dramas from the part 2 lineup.

Yes. They get worse every time. It's so stupid.

I sort of get it - for a lot of people Not Me was the first intro to OffGun, Puppy Honey or whatever it was doesn't even register.

Not Me was definitely my first OffGun show, but I'm odd in that their chemistry didn't fire for me there. Like, at all. The romance took a backseat to everything else for me, and unlike a lot of other BLs, if I had been watching just for that I would have stopped. Thankfully Not Me was dense with plot, too (not that a BL can't have both but hopefully you know what I mean. I wasn't being held on chemistry). And it was also my first exposure to Gun Atthaphan as an actor and I will be forever grateful about that. He's great.

Now, Cooking Crush? Adorable. I still don't know if I buy into the lauded OffGun thing, but I liked their chemistry in that one much better than Not Me. They seemed way more natural and easy, imo. And I've never ever found Off so charming and attractive as I did in CC, lol.

I don't know if I will watch this one as it airs or not, but if and when I do get around to watching, I hope I can take it as it is. Sometimes I wonder if that's part of the problem with the fixed pair thing - the typecasting into certain roles or dynamics, both by the directors/producers and by the fans. It gets harder and harder to take each new show as it comes when it's the same two faces.

I won't lie, I'd have been in from the second that Wandee made fun of Kao's eyebrows. :D

But also, this was a good first ep. Pod is so pretty and smiles so damn much I just knew Ter would turn out to be kind of assy, lol, and I'm behind Wandee one hundred percent - he's young, he's good looking, and if he's gonna react to Ter's assyness by hopping into bed with someone it should be someone as hot as Yoyak.

Also I approve of leaving The Eclipse on in the background while getting it on, lol.

All in all, a really fun start!
