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?

Why are the high school shirts always pink in BL if that's not the uniform?

LOL, I was thinking that too. The old lady should have just pulled out a specfic brand of cool drinks and escaped while the thugs were commenting on how refreshing they were.

Ah. Now I get it, and I agree.

I'd say 2gether's first half was a lot better than this, but I like this more overall, as flawed as it is, and Mork is way more attractive to me than Sarawat - I've never understood why everyone is so gaga for him.

I loved it until about half way through when suddenly Tine's character evaporated and was replaced by a stereotypical uke. That was the fastest and worst collapse of a good story I've seen in BL so far.

I think sister almost works because the actor is really like that and so it comes off as genuine. In earlier eps where he was a TOO over-the-top he annoyed the f#$% out of me, but lately he's been cute.

I don't think anyone really thought about what Bbomb's character is actually like. That's the problem with almost all semes. Their only function is to stand around looking good and they rarely have fleshed-out personalities. What is the difference between Bbomb, Phana, Nubsib, and just about anyone in that role? The only defining characterics of a seme are 1) tall, 2) nice body 3) handsome 4) rich 5) popular 6) desire the uke. Most of them you could replace with a mannequin and nobody would notice. Actually, in some cases it would be an improvement.

I'm almost hoping that he has a complex evil plan to destroy everyone - he was barely in TT until that emerged. And he was really good at that.

If it's for family viewing, there's a lot of non-consensual things that happen. I don't thinkmany people would want to watch a BL with their parents... I'm older and I would feel like an embarassed teen if my mother were watching this with me.

The characterization isn't very well-written or consistent, and tbh, half the cast is totally unnecessary and just takes up time, even if I like all the actors. What a waste of Kaownah - I almost wish he was secretly evil and planning to destroy everyone - he was so compelling in that role.

Jin has done absolutely nothing to make Bbomb jealous - if he expects Jin to not show attention to other people, then he needs counselling, because that's an unhealthy and obsessive attitude.

Bbomb DOES have reason to feel threatened by Mark, who is hot as f@#$ and subtle and manuipulative and obviously interested in Jin.

I love Boss so much - he makes everything he's in better. I could only endure Oxygen because of him.

I'm dropping this - it's awful. That scene at the beginning where that employee rapes Migo with her eyes and protruding, drooling tongue is so disgusting I can't even watch it unless I'm actually able to punch her in the face. He should demand his money back and leave. I've actually seen rape scenes that disturbed me less.

Has any BL writer actually ever flirted or been flirted with? Why is it always so extreme that the pizza guy in a porn film would be embarassed by it?

It's misgyny and homophbia. Effemintate gay men and woman have zero self-control and completely loose all composure and dignity in the presence of a half-good-looking man (to be fair, in this case considerably more than 'half-good-looking').

The production quality is poor, with bad lighting, sound, & mediocre and uninspired cinematography. I can watch a low-budget production with heart, but this has too little in the wrong places. Migo was also in Cheat, which I thought was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end and probably had an even lower budget.
