Doom & gloom, both in the story and visually, can't catch a break, whatever can go wrong does go wrong, stoic long-suffering mother, beautifully shot, skilfully acted, subtly written....Now I need something to cheer me up!
Yeah, I don't know what's going on. I feel like something's wrong with me for not liking this show, but the whole…
So, what happened to your Eternal Butler review? It vanished! lol
I've been looking for it because I wanted to tell you about a Taiwanese BL that does not look Taiwanese at all. Bad to Bed https://kisskh.at/778366-bad-to-bed with a curious plot and actors looking like adults and not starved idols. The episodes are just 15-20min long with the rest being BTS footage. A low budget production, mind you!
I came back home, opened MDL to find something to watch and saw you just posted a new review. Thanks for the laughs! Just what I needed after a bad week I had. 🥰This must be good: you rated it so high!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Do! I hope my friend didn’t oversell it for you. A lot of people can’t stand it, and the acting & humour are…
I'd love to read the 10 commandments of TBL?
I tried watching Ossan's Love ages ago and could not deal with the quirkiness that is japanese humour. I never intended to watch the Thai remake:. GMMTV has been consistent there: every one was a total failure! The "couples" have cultish followings and their"ships" can do no wrong as long as they are gracing the fans' screens, who cares about the plot or the overall production quality. GMMTV is milking the cow dry and I fear they are going to destroy the Thai BL industry. Because one day, even the hardest fan will have had enough of insipid plots and the same guys falling in love over and over again.
Weird incomprehensible scary. This is not a BL (the main characters may or may not be gay and there is absolutely NO romance), this is just pure psychological horror.....
It's better than what's going on in the UK right now.
Oh, yes I am well aware of the current scandal you referred to in you first post, in the UK ( I live across the Channel!) which had been covered up by politicians from all sides who did not want to go against the all powerfull woke virtuous gang, afraid of being called racist and islamophobes. This was another victory for the Muslim Brotherhood who used our own strengths agains us (our tolerance and understanding!). Countries are waking up to the damage this attitude has created and are starting to fight back. Slowly but surely!
Can you say the same thing about China? HongKong, Taiwan, Uyghurs, Tibet, surveillance state, corruption, censorship, ban on homosexuality, TikTok...I can continue if you like! Protecting their women and children (I read some horrible stories about that on Quillette site written by a British journalist who lives in China)? Maybe if is for the benefit of the leadership! People are dying in China for saying the wrong thing, for thinking differently from the main doctrine. If the people are calm and obey the orders given by the Party, they will have a correct existence. Is that better than the UK? No matter how hard things get in the UK, I bet you that any Chinese would prefer it to staying in China, given the choice.
No matter how difficult things get to be here, we are goi.g to bounce back and sort it out, sooner or later but it will be done without a doubt.
Awww... Thank you! I've not really quit Thai BL. It was my sardonic humour at its most mordant. (I have slightly…
Maybe my memory is a bit fuzzy, but when I watched it a couple of years ago, they said that it was cancelled before the last episode was filmed. There were some obscure reasons that I do not remember, there was a slight chatter about a possible sequel and then time passed, nothing happened and everyone forgot about it. I don't think we'll ever see this sitcom again. Or the actors, for that matter. They seem to have disappeared as well. It would be interesting to find out what actually happened. Well, anything shady is possible, better yet, likely to happen in Thai bl industry. Sorry, I am a cynic.😅
This is really good, different from the majority of Taiwanese BLs. Reminds me more of HongKong ones....The music is great and the actors are not teens thus the bad rating here! lol The only problem is that the episodes are too short and they tacked on 15min of unsubbed BTS. Useless!
Thanks for commenting 🤗. Indeed we are diametrically opposite on our take away for this drama 😄 But that's…
The majority of reviews are like yours and that's why I am wondering what is it that I am not seeing here.
I think that my opinion about this drama went south when I realized that the actor playing the rebel looked too old to be a convincing teen. He was perfect as an adult!
And my opinion was confirmed when at one point the good guy asks "But we are both men?" Really? In 2024?
Interesting review! I did not see any of the things you and many other reviewers write about. All I saw was bad casting, bad chemistry, draggy story full of tropes (abusive parents, good boy falls for an apoarent rebel), washed out cinematography, miserable and depressive atmosphere etc. etc. Conclusion: I am either blind, too cynical or not the target audience. Probably all three!😅😅 But thank you so much for this review: it opens my eyes to some subleties I have missed.
I am loving this (edit: Really, not sarcasm!): terrible plot, bad acting, hot sassy assistant, horrible family, overbearing music, fish kisses (EDIT:IN THE FIRST HALF ONLY!) and... a ML who trips and falls in the vicinity of the other Ml's lips at least once per episode. They are breaking The Tuxedo's record for the most "accidental falls on lips" in BLhistory!🤣🤣🤣🤣
The classics: Kleun Chewit, Bad Romeo, Hui Jia Sila, To Sir With Love.....sorry for the approximative titles! All of them came highly recommended and I dropped them all: too much over the top...This one seems tamer than the majority of lakhorns so that might be the reason I finished it. And even that it took me almost two weeks (when I usually binge watch a series of comparable length in 3 days!)😅😅😅
