I think I have yet to see a BL that doesn't have at least one or two "choppy" episodes. This does feel low budget at times, but not it is by no means bad. Future The Series was choppy and bad. Hit Bite Love was low-budget, choppy and came off as cheaply made.

So one or two choppy scenes doesn't bother me.

Hidden Agenda is a snoozefest. I think that one would be the "less animated" of the current crop.

less animated? Are we watching the same thing?

Nick is younger and less experienced. I think he is in love. When you are in love, you don't think. I am pretty sure I have been Nick in at least one relationship and I have been Boston probably more times than I would like to admit.

If anything, this is the most realistic of the couples IMO.

This show should be called, "Everyone has a flaw, not everyone is perfect" :)

He either knows who recorded him (I doubt it) or he feels unlovable. He doesn't feel like he deserves Nick's affection.

he is in love. Actually, I loved that scene.

Hearing aid or was it an earphone. Someone in the set could be feeding him lines.

I want to see Dunk wearing less clothing. And a lot of shirtless Joong. So if the patient is half naked and Joong is a doctor/life guard working at a beach in Pattaya and he goes out surfing a lot, then I am all for it. :D

JK

I get you. I do want to see Joong doing more. I really liked his 2moons2 character. He played it well. Dunk is not a great actor but he is getting better. I want to see him do something a bit darker too. Would be great!

I don't like the debate scenes. I find them cringey. I am not sure if its badly written or just that in Thailand they debate differently. Whenever they debate, it seems that they are in elementary school and not in college.

Really? When I heard he was Vietnamese I was like, ahh that makes sense. He kind of looks Vietnamese.

One doesn't need a boyfriend or girlfriend to have sex. We don't need to know everything about Joke. Maybe it will be revealed later, maybe it will be left to our imaginations.

Having said that, I agree it would have been awesome if he had said "I am a virgin too, let's find out together". :)

I love, and I mean really LOVE, Dunk, but he is not a good actor and it shows here. I think he is generally the reason ppl dislike this show, which is a shame because he seems to be a sweet guy and his intimate scenes with Joong are actually not bad. Maybe that's because Joong is a good actor, but I think it is because Dunk is such a sweet guy that it just comes out naturally in those particular instances.

Joong is not the best actor by any means, but he is doing a really good job here compared to Dunk. I think Joong's issue is that he needs to stop playing the dandere/stoic seme part. He needs to go back to the deredere he played in 2Moons2. That I think is the type of character that best suits him.

No. It generally means good luck, at least in the west. Crossing fingers behind someones back means you are lying.

So it could be either or. I think its more like he is wishing himself or his friends luck in love.

'cause he is cute?

The finale was bad and a cringefest. I do hope Zeke and Fifth get their own series. I just hope there is no Ms Becky, Jelai or Chukchuk.

Derick is very hot. His acting was not very good. But he is hot... :)

lol

Jericho is a very beautiful man, but Hiro is hot and sexy. I wouldn't want to choose between the two of them, but if I had to, I probably want one night with Hiro. He is smoking hot without even trying.

Just listen to this podcast and you will get a bit of an insight why this happens in BL a lot. It is due to the Uke Reticence usually. Ukes in BL act like women did in Victorian times. They are supposed to actively reject the Seme's advances. What is interesting about ATOTS and BB is that BB doesn't really have an Uke but Pran acts as the Uke in terms of his behavior towards sex. Meanwhile, in ATOTS, Tian is not usually too shy about wanting to be intimate. However, an Uke is an Uke and Tian did seem to reject Pupa a couple of times including when they were in the falls and he tried to walk away. But the last scene makes it sound like Tian wants to top Pupa and he is definitely not shy about sex.

The other reason we get this G rated series is because GMMTV wants to appeal to a wider audience and not deal with Thai censorship.
