Was the director cut scene what happens when they go to bed on the final episode?

Who can resist Boy?

Its the time jump. Also, the series reaches its climax early on. Basically, you can stop watching after episode 6 or halfway through episode 7 and you had be OK.

This series was really good, but it seems it lost track of its thematic elements midway through and because of this, anything that happened post-climax seems pretty meaningless. Heck, even the climactic scenes felt like they never delivered with the exception of Seefon's disappearing (maybe? even that one felt a bit weak).

I thought they had chemistry and I thought he flirted with Shogun while trying to distract him, so IDK. However, I agree that Shogun showed no interest in him, but who knows.

Nah, I think the end game is Green-Maitoh and Shogun-Maitee

I think Shogun will end up with the brother. Maybe?

Slomo kisses are definitely so 2013...

Thanks for coming up with the term. I was struggling with it for a while. Kiss interruptus? Osculum Interruptus? Kissus interruptus is one everyone can understand LMAO

Indrytimes can deliver if she wants to. Its definitely the networks that screw things up. Where is this airing at?

Me 2

LOL You are funny.

I never thought about that, but this is clearly also an allegory about what happens when your partner dies. Thank you for sharing that with us.

I am still emotional. This series is definitely making it to my top 10 of the year... heck, top 10 of all time.

It is such a simple story, but the acting, directing and writing is so good.

I loved this so much. Just loved it.

This series plot has more holes than swiss cheese. That has nothing to do with suspension of disbelief. This is just very badly written. On top of that, it seems they stuffed those plot holes with cringe. Lots of cringe.

I can suspend my disbelief for a second an believe the moon will crash onto the planet, but the cringe in this is starting to get out of hand.

Those folks here defending this series are overlooking MANY LOGICAL flaws:

1) Internal Inconsistency. We are told the world will end, but they are also looking for a shelter. What exactly will end then? Also, why are characters so blasé about this?
2) The world is ending in less than one week and they are getting condoms?
3) How long does that lady need to have her curl rods on?
4) Art is so relaxed and happy that he has time to read a book, leisurely, while government keeps blasting the "world is ending" announcement?
5) How long was the guy in the store dead for that he was still moving? How did he die? There was no blood anywhere
6) How did Gus jumped from INSIDE the bedroom to OUTSIDE the bedroom so quickly in Ep 5?
7) In the beginning of EP5, the moon is HUGE, taking up most of the sky. Then later at night, they show the moon as being really small, like a normal regular moon at night.

The editing is also kind of choppy, with a scene followed or preceded by an unrelated scene with no transition or cues from the mis-en-scene to guide us as to where we are or why we are there.

On top of that there are the little things that bother me, like why did Gus and Golf had sweaty shirts in one scene, but the shirts were dry on the next scene. At first, I thought the sweat was part of the scene, but then it disappears. On the following scene, and while they wear a different shirt, they are sweating again. Now I know it is just hot in Thailand and the director didn't care about it or about the continuity between scenes. I kept also thinking, where did Gus get that nice set of clothing? Wasn't he in jail? And where did Art get all those really nice and well fitting clothing? I thought he was wearing Golf's clothing. Then I start thinking about who is running the electrical grid if everyone is out and then I realize this writer put zero thought on any of this, and I go back to the fact that I am OK with all these little issues, but the cringe fest that was that rooftop serenade and all the things I listed above, just makes me say, "no more"....

(I am dropping it for now, but I will keep my eye out for spoilers to see if I do come back just to watch the good stuff and maybe the ending .)

I used to say i could watch Gameplay watch paint dry on a wall. Actually, that sounds a lot better to watch than Work from the Heart.

This level of angst is actually more in line with regular Thai series and lakorns. Thai people love to pile tragedies on top of tragedies.

My list of worst shows I HAVE WATCHED this year would probably be something like:

1) Rainbow Prince
2) Work from the Heart
3) Oh My Sunshine Night
4) Meow Ears Up
5) 2Moons3

OK. My apologies. I probably did not see all of your ratings for some reason.

Funny thing is I consider Cutie Pie to be pretty much trash. I mean, it has its moments, but it ranks very low for me. LBC has some good and some bad and then some really bad, though I do like Perth in it. Of the ones you rated high, only SCOY and TT would also have a similar rating for me.

I think you just have very different taste.

Sad that you don't stand Tagalog. As a Hispanic, I love to hear the language. It reminds me of the sexiness of Portuguese. Gameboys and Boys Lockdown are among the best BL series I have seen, period. In fact, Gameboys is a top 5 contender for me. Seeing it seems you rate skin higher than plot, I don't think you would like either, though Gameboys The Movie does show them having sex and Boys Lockdown has a lot of shirtless scenes. LOL

Anyway, Remember Me is starting to stagnate in these last couple of episodes, but I do hope it redeems itself. Crossing my fingers.

You really seem to dislike Thai BL. With the exception of Between Us, all the the Thai BLs you have watched have a low rating in your list. And you have not watched any of the classics, or the really bad ones from the Philippines. All this to say, you still have not seen anything yet if you think this is terrible. You should watch Rainbow Prince, the first episode of Love Sick, My Tee (which i love but has the worst audio ever), Waterboyy the series, With Love, Skinship 1 and 2, Sakristan, and the list goes on.

I agree. A healthy discussion is good. I think I now understand where you are coming from and I actually agree. That aspect of the fan service is toxic. I think I have become more jaded and disconnected from the "news" aspect of BL (e.g. gossip) because it is so murky. Fan service blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. I have even stopped listening to a youtuber who I used to listen to, in order to get all the "news" about BL. I no longer know much about what is coming down the pipeline anymore, unless I read about it in FB or here.

As a gay man, I find the "gay for pay" moniker to be a bit cringey, especially when used for BL. In the context of porn, it is bad for a whole lots of reasons, but in the context of BL, it is bad mostly because kissing a guy as an actor is not really being gay. If you are referring to the fan service, I sort of get why you want to use the term, but it is really cringe. Gay people in Thailand are still not fully out and to call these actors gay because they are exchanging glances and smiling or hugging other guys in public, really just devalues the struggles that gay ppl have. This is the same reason that I am very careful when I applaud the activism of allies like Max and Tul, who genuinely seem to care about gay ppl and don't portray themselves as gay, vs the fake weddings of say, New and Tay, which are super cringe and totally more about fan service than genuine activism.

Maybe the rest of the gang doesnt like Name as much? Remember, thy are older than him.

Gay for pay is porn. I dont think we should apply that term to acting.

Yeah, i dont really watch interviews. I just go by their acting chemistry and what i read about them .
