That scene in ITSAY was pefection - it pulled me right back to that age.

I'm totally in love. Forget the body (I'm not going to forget his body. Ever.), he's also a great singer - he's my favorite character currently airing. I hope he does more series.

OK, I know I whine a lot about being tired of high school stories, but at least the characters don't wear white shirts behind white subtitles.

OK, so this entire epside was taken up by peripheral and one-off female charaters flirting with or discussing how attractive the leads are - usually with them standing right there, and in one case a teacher was coming onto her student. That's it. Nothing at all happened other than that. We learned one fact about Nut and not one other single thing happened to advance the story. The only scene where boys talked was when everyone was scolding the gay guy for drunkenness, and that scene went on forever.

I checked and it was a bit over two minutes spent on Satha ordering coffee. Then it was another minute of the "I'm paying for this" stare-off.

And the sound effects - sexual harassment doesn't become funny because you use "boing!" and sheep-bleating sound effects.

I can't take any more of this. It's pointless and boring and is barely a BL.

Here we go with this again. It's more disrespectful to be rude to an actual human being than to critique a work of fiction. Criticism isn't disrespect, and if you can't recognize that, than I would respectfully suggest you stay away from discussion forums, where you will inevitably encounter people who have different opinions than you do.

I agree - I was really joking more than wanting anything else.

I do need to see the sexual tension, which is a critical element in the chemistry between the actors - but where it goes doesn't matter so much as long as it makes sense within the context of the story and is consistent with the characters.

For example, if they were in their 30's, their interaction at the end would have been ridiculous, but given the characters, even a kiss - really, even a hug - would have been too much and taken me out of the story. That amount of touch was perfect.

Yay, thank you so much!

It's true that the humor has landed better for me than usual for a Thai show.

Well, I'm white and lived in NYC, so curly hair doesn't do anything special for me, It was more like, "is there anyone here who does NOT have curly hair?"

I remember Calculating Love - I aslo lked the first couple of epsides and then it fell apart for me. But apparently practice makes perfect because they managed a complete and satisfying story in 17 minutes. More happened than in the entire series for Nitiman.

Does anyone know if this is really happening, or is it just wishful thinking?

How could you say something so evil? You're worse than Hitler!

Just kidding. I agree, the poster is bad. War doesn't even look good in it, and you have to work hard to accomplish that. I hope sulux x can enroll in a graphics class and maybe her next one will be better. :)

Thanks for the rec - I loved it. Definitely no white face paint there - very refreshing. And the dialogue was better than anything I've seen before in a Thai BL.

Kong did invite Film to "go home together", and the look on their faces suggested he didn't mean "coincidentally walk in the same general direction towards separate residences."

I choose to fill in the blanks in the most prurient way possible, but that's just me. So Kong's parents are away from the weekend and the boys only pause for pizza deliveries.

But seriously, it was cute and perfect.

Rossi is like a sexier version of Peak Peemapol. I love that they cast a darker guy and didn't coat his face in white makeup.

That was wonderful - the dialogue was smart, witty, and charming, and I liked the no-nonsense pursuit of each other, with no evil girfriends, no accidental kisses, nobody tripping and being caught and stared at, and both boys were on a basketball TWICE without either injuring their ankle in a comically stupid-looking fall.

It deserves higher than 7.8. I can't give it a 10 because it doesn't go beyond a perfectly-executed piece of fluff, but it's a solid 9 for me. I loved it.

At first I was thinking "why high school?" Especially because they're flirting was very adult. But then the shy innocence of the last scene justified it.

Can somoene petition the Thai government to change the uniform to white sneakers or something? Even the sexiest boy's looks are marred by the black dress shoe-white sock combo.

They're flirting was more like between 30-year olds, but I was still totally onboard.

Ugly and older is fine - there are characters I like a lot that aren't conventionally attractiv, like Oat in Country Boy or anything else he's been in. But it would be nice if Nut had an ounce of charm or screen presence. I'll give it one more ep, but I'm going in with low expectations.

The actor isn't even physically ugly - if he had a nice personality and got a good night's sleep he'd be attractive.

Thank you! I'll watch it.

4/10. I'd have give it a 1, but the cast was trying so hard, and the production crew did a great job. But the writing and directing were so bad that it was nearly unwatchable afrer te first couple of eps. Nothing happened - everyone just kept going in circles. It was a missed opportunity with such an attractive and talented cast. I'd have probably given it a 6 or maybe even a 7 if it had a redeeming finale, but it was so bad I couldn't believe it - none of the secondary storylines went anywhere at all, and the main couple ended up with conclusion less satisfying than their making up after one of their thrice-an-espisode psycho jealousy misunderstanding sulks. If I could go back in time, I would definitely skip it.

Aww, thanks! Now I'm blushing!

That really has no place in BL - it's an important issue, but this is not the genre to explore it. If the writer was holding out for that, then someone needs to slap her. Same when they have main characters run over by a truck in the last ep - this is escapist fantasy, not tragedy.

I hope so too!
