We need some idea or hint as to how those presumably-murdered women relate to Too and/or his father. I think not giving us that just makes the last half-hour’s subplot kinda strange and random. Anyone has any thoughts or theories on the ending?
I think it was his dad because Too told him, "I will take care of those women for you" before heading to the barn…

Overall, it has a decent concept and an interesting enough premise to keep viewers engaged. However, I find that the show’s storytelling gets more and more tardy as it approaches the second half. There were plenty of logic lapse and holes in the plot. Not to mention poorly written behavior of some characters. I thought the final epi was pretty bad to be honest.
I love this under-the-radar show!!! Though it centred around themes such as lying and family estrangement, it was a surprisingly uplifting and heartwarming watch. There were some really touching moments that brought tears to my eyes. The plot was original, the storytelling engaging, the acting good and the cinematography, beautiful. I like the mood of the show. I like the nostalgia. It brought me back to my teenage years — a time of pagers, phone booths, tamagotchis, video tapes and rental, film cameras etc. I’m feeling bit empty now that I’ve finished the final epi and wishing there were more!
Side note: why is grandpa not listed in the cast above?
I was blase about this when the series was first announced ‘cos I found ViceVersa to be such a drag to sit through. But now that it’s out, I gave this a sample anyway and found it very watchable! Both Sea and Jimmy’s acting have improved leaps and bounds — thank goodness! I thought Sea really did very well in this role as a blind man.
Also, I really like that the development between the two leads felt very natural. They didn’t suddenly just like each other but it felt like the viewer journeyed with them as they grew closer. That’s something I often find lacking in gmmtv dramas where ppl just suddenly take to each other. Here, falling in love wasn’t even on their minds yet it just happened. Very believable.
Also, I like the banter between the characters. The conversations are well written. It really goes to show the director makes a huge difference to the quality of a series. Kudos to P’Aof!
boston rlly had to mess everything up, huh like ive always liked him but the bar scene was so useless and weird…
Ya, to me it felt a bit unrealistic ‘cos there wasn’t even a moment of hesistation on Boston’s part. It was as if he came alone and all that was just shared with Nick a second ago didn’t happen. I don’t think that’s possible of anyone in real life, in that same situation.
I think the final Boston-Nick scene is for me, the most poignant yet beautiful one. It makes me think about whether someone should continue with his old ways because that’s who he truly is, like Nick pointed out, or make a deliberate effort to change for the sake of someone who is worth it. I don’t think I can agree with Nick on this but it makes sense I guess for him to say that as he was the person who once believed that Ton has changed. What a fool, this Boston.
I love Nick most out of all the characters in this show!
There’s so much crying in this episode and everyone brought their A game. We know Khao’s acting is best but I thought Mark performed really well during the scene where he got emotional and couldn’t control himself. It was heartfelt. I can say Nick is really my fave character! Neo’s portrayal of Boston has always impressed me until this epi. He didn’t do badly but I felt it was rather underwhelming, the acting. He didn’t quite nail the struggle and also pain in both the confrontation and pouring-out scenes.
After watching only friends for 9weeks, I have come to understand the meaning of bad (top) worse(ray) and worst(Boston)…
Is Boston worse than Top? I don’t really feel so. At least Boston doesn’t pretend like it’s one thing and then have a side show gg on somewhere else. He says it very directly even when it’s makes him sound like a jerk.
