I hated Puth/Kaeng - I could barely get through it and it was excruciating. It made no emotional sense and BL writers do not know how to write flirting - they seem to think it's practically forcing yourself on someone.

I liked Thurs/Pao and the first half of Sat/Choke, and that's about it.

Today's trope bingo squares:

Weight Shaming
Accidebtal touch/Stare

I'm impressed that there were only two.

BTW, WE GET IT. Yoon likes Lay. Move on. We could tell from the second they were in the same room.
BTW, the fire. lol. LIke seriously lol.
BTW, WE GET IT. Masuk is sad and lonely. Move on. We could tell from the first second we saw him.
BTW, these boys need to go to "how to be comforting" class.
BTW, I don't think that theater received a proper fire inspection.

OK, so it wasn't BAD, but that was an entire hour devloted to 15 minutes of content. So many things were belabored to the point that I was rolling my eyes - it's like they don't trust the sudience or the actors and so they have to beat us over the head. Lay is able to do sad and lonely. Yoon is able to do subtle longing. Let them do it and move on.

I noticed they're throwung in a lot of English into the dialog - not just Sat with fu,l sentences - other characters were using quite a few English words & phrases in their Eventually there will be way fewer languages - one dies every 14 days as natives switch to English, Mandarin, and Spanish.

So far this ep I've had trouble focusing on his eyes.

Second seasons are often so bad that they ruin your memory of the first season - in this case it's hard to imagine a positive outcome unless it's created by a totally different production staff and much better writers. And the leads at least pretend they're attracted to each other.

It's funny that this ep was able to make me totally wrong, but they did it in the wrongest way possible.

If you want to be lectured about bisexuality and intersex by terrble actors who are totally ignorant of the subjects except for common stereotypes, then this is for you. For the remaining 99.999999999% of humanity, run away.

Why did nobody tell me about this? It's so good! Although I'm only on the first ep, so there's plenty of time for them to ruin it.

And is Love going to keep that horrible haircut? Why would they ruin his cuteness with that?

I think I have a subscription. I wonder how many things I've subscribed to and forgotten about. I should probably check my credit card bill.

For a minute I thought you were replying to me, and I was thinking, '"Did I start talking about Solo in Oxygen again?" Because those words are how I would describe him.

The whole Jin as a playboy thing is ridiculous - he's the complete opposite of a playboy. If they were going to present him that way, we needed to see him being one. He was even unwilling to take advantage of that one girl - he obviously can only have feelings for one person at a time.

Kaownah and Turbo will be in Love Stage, which seems like strange casting to me, but we'll see. I don't understand why Kaownah isn't a bigger star than he is - he's so good.

I've thought Noh's acting has been really flat, but he didn't angry-jealous really well this ep, and Jom has been good too.

And Boss is perfect in that role.

Nope, we didn't get anything better. At least their lips actually touched.

I get all that, but if you live in human society you've seen people date, either live or on television. Maybe the subtitles are off and he was talking about feelings, which would make more sense. In any case, I'll wait to judge. I'm pretty sure Mame has never dated, though, lol - or at least I hope not, if her writing is what she thinks it's like.

Wow, I didn't think it was possible to have a slower-moving plot than Amore, but Star has proved me wrong.

The sound quality is terrible. It was so bad I thought my computer was broken - I had the sound on full blast and I still couldn't hear the beginning. Then it kicked in and ruptured my eardrums.

Well, at least they hired really good actors - the acting was excellent. Well, I think. If there was a script. I'm not sure they weren't just being themselves.

Absolutely nothing happened in this episode. It's like the director said "behave like two totally straight guys for 20 minutes." What is this even about? All we've seen so far is two guys crying over lost girlfriends and lots of junior-high-school level "no-homo" goofing around. Are these supposed to be adults? I don't get it. Why did we need five minutes of discussion about and logistics involved with taking a shower?

Also they must have brought some sort of miracle bug repellant with them.

In any case, I'm not seeing any motivation to continue watching. This was marketed as BL, and I'm here to watch BL, not two crude straight high school boys wandering around doing random things. They managed to make a shower scene with two attractive men with great bodies totally non-erotic. What was the point?

Happenstance was amazing - I hope you get to finish it.

Sigh. First of all, when you see a white truck, it's better to run than to stand still for 20 seconds until it reaches you. White trucks in BLs are Bad News. It's the leading cause of death among Thais. Also Taiwanese. White trucks are driven by a race of invisible and mute people.

Second, are Asian values are fundamentally different to Western, at least on TV? In what universe is there any moral comparison between Kaew and Auntie? One is 100% guilty, the other 0% guilty, yet it was painted as shared blame. It's too bad the truck couldn't have been aimed at Mesa.

I guess I should be happy that Kim & Tha at least kissed such as it was. Anyway, I enjoyed the show, but it really needed to be shorter - this was at most 10 episodes, and really more like 8.

Peter & Boss are mains in an upcoming BL - I hope they're a more convincing couple in that than they are here - I wasn't feeling it.

There were a lot of repeated scenes, but I was OK with how often they showed Kim tied to the chair.

So they're 20-year olds who have no idea how to be lovers? I'd never heard they were mentally challenged before, but that will be a new twist on the formula. Hopefully someone will teach them how to pee and eat so they don't die.

The artist guy is a dick, but damn. Sooo sexy. Hard to forgive how he treated his grandfather though. I could tell from that phone call in the bathroom in Ep that there were going to be a lot of angry comments here.

I don't find Sarawat all that hot. He's attractive, but he looks kind of... not the brightest. Also, I like Asian men and he looks almost white. I would take Tine over him any day.

And can we talk about him in uniform?
