Guys, what do you have planned for today? I recently published a couple of videos that dive into everything BL related on my brand new YouTube channel, go check it out. I analyse BLs to see what makes them tick and try to understand why we (BL Fans) enjoy them so much. Just log onto YouTube and search for me, The Closeted BL Fan. Subscribe to see more content and leave a few likes to show your appreciation. Thank you so much for the love guys. And stay safe!
I am still very undecided about continuing with this series. I don't like BLs with the concept of a girl trapped in a guy's body. I watched the first episode and it wasn't bad but I still can't get past the concept. I check in with you guys from time to time about this series and it seems like most of you are enjoying it so far. But I'm not quite sure if I'll enjoy it, I'm waiting to see what you guys have to say after the show is completed. Oh and please checkout my YouTube Channel whenever you get the chance.

So far, this show has a huge editing problem. Scenes have a lot of unnecessary content; that "two truths and a lie" scene was especially problematic. The actors did a great job to bring the scene to life, it felt like I was a fly on the wall watching a group of friends just chill out. But I suspect the show probably didn't have a lot of content to fill the time slot they were given so they dragged out a few scenes. If the scenes were intentionally written that way well....someone should let the production know that's not good. I personally think the concept of the show is very refreshing, I can't think of any BL I've seen that's like it. But the way the show executes the concept leaves a lot to be desired.

At first I was very unsure about this series but now I'm glad I gave it a chance. It is similar in format to Gameboys but the stories being told are very different from each other. Let's hope the show ends without any disappointments. A few great shows this year just didn't know how to end properly. Oh and please checkout my YouTube Channel whenever you get the chance.

This BL series is a very slow burn but I don't mind it. The episodes are barely ten minutes so boredom doesn't creep in. Each episode is simple; there is an issue and the issue is tackled with food lol, it doesn't get any simpler than that. No huge drama or anything of the sort to deal with. Even though nothing can replace the engagement of a full 40-50 minute episode, the bite size episodes seem just right for the story this show is telling.

This show is a solid 9/10 for me. It was well produced and well acted. Hopefully this gives South Korea the green-light to start rolling out more BLs of the same quality very soon. A lot of people are declaring this show the best BL ever and I understand why. But in my opinion it cannot take that title because of one factor; Time. The duration of 'Where Your Eyes Linger' is too short to take a seat at that table of best BL ever. All of the best BLs ever (Addicted, Sotus, Tharntype....) are seated at that table because week after week we got to spend time with their characters and live their stories; their struggles and triumphs. 'Where Your Eyes Linger' is unfortunately a quick summary of the whole story, you can't call the summary one of the best stories ever. But the 'Light (Blurry)' soundtrack is DEFINITELY one of the best ever. I already added it to my BL playlist.
I never once thought 2gether the series was boring like some people have claimed. I was completely invested in it, especially Sarawat and Tine's story. But the reason the majority of us became invested in their story was because it was always little. The little moments between Tine and Sarawat is what we lived for and it's what built such a cult following of their relationship. All of the best moments between Tine and Sarawat were when they were alone in a scene together. No one else, just them figuring out their feelings for each other and expressing them in the best ways they could. In my opinion that was heart warming to watch, I was smiling through all of it. Now let's fast forward to episode 12 and 13. All of that smallness has been thrown out the window with a big FU to us the viewers. Sarawat and Tine are now confessing their love center stage at a concert for cheering girls in the crowd to scream their lungs out. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with a grand love confession. But for Sarawat and Tine's relationship it just seemed like a big spectacle and so silly. The two of them giving their relationship another try needed to be way more intimate than what was presented to us in episode 13. That intimacy would have brought the show back a bit to what it originally started out as. The quality of 2gether began decreasing when Tine agreed to move in with Sarawat after like 1/2 a second of thought. But on the bright side Man and Type didn't have such a bad story arc in episode 13 compared to how much of douche Type was for ditching Man in episode 12. Their development ended up being more heartfelt than the main couple's.
I find BohnDuen quite fascinating to be honest. I was also a bit annoyed with Duen, but actually Duen doesn't…
No I don't have any problems with Bohn/Duen's relationship and how it is progressing. It's just that in episode 11 I believe they should have been more the background couple to allow the other couples their time to better showcase their relationships. Because each of the other couples carried a particular tone in this episode; they were working through heavy issues. But Bohn/Duen's arc this episode wasn't aligning well with the others, hence why it should have been decided for them to play a secondary role in this episode. We the viewers are invested in the other couples so they wouldn't have lost viewership in doing so. But I must add that it was very refreshing how the writers handled Mek/Boss's arc this episode. I thought it would have been the same cliche of Boss feeling betrayed and not wanting to see Mek for like 5 episodes then he remembers all the good times he had with Mek and accepts his true feelings for him. I'm glad the writers didn't go that route cause frankly it's very exhausting to sit through.
Okay, so I saw only two notable flaws for episode 11: Bohn/Duen's arc in this episode clashed heavily with all of the other couples, it was like they were in a completely different series. Every other couple was going through stuff while Bohn/Duen was using pillows to separate themselves in bed. I'm not say that Bohn/Duen are a bad couple but they were completely tone deaf this episode. The writers could have pulled back on their scenes for this episode and allow the other couples to take the lead. Each of the other couples has a strong enough story line to step into the lead for at least this episode. But Bohn/Duen better be careful though cause the other couples are starting to outshine them. They could eventually fall into that BL curse of the side couples becoming much more interesting than the main ones by the end of the series. The second notable flaw of this episode is King popping out of no where when Ram was walking his dogs (so late at night I must add). I saw the set up coming a mile away with the sudden thunderstorm that Duen and friends could have miraculously brave through (as dry as a chip I must add) to go find Ram (so late at night I must still add). The entire situation was a plot device to get Ram to have to stay over with King. Nothing is wrong with that but the flaw lies in the execution of it. Don't make it so obvious to the viewers that that's what you want to achieve, try your best to hide it. Establish a reason for King to be out on the road so late and hence him coincidentally bumping into Ram, him popping out from behind a building seemed almost comical. The sudden thunderstorm could have started from since Ram was questioning his mom about his father and he could have been so distressed about the situation that he decides to leave the house regardless of the thunderstorm forming outside. Everything then unfolds as it did that night but now both Ram and especially King have established reasons for being where they were and bumping into each other.
Besides those two flaws this was an excellent episode. In my opinion, Mek/Boss edged out Ram/King's story arc in this episode by a percent to be the star couple. Who would have thought that this show would have ended up overtaking a certain other show airing the day before especially when that show had such a record breaking start to it. Strange things do occur I guess.
Let me make this public announcement: BL IS A FANTASY! BL was never meant to be a representation of the LGBTQ+ community. If you are watching BLs and expecting to see rainbow flags waving you will be utterly disappointed. There are many LGBTQ+ shows and movies out there that is for that purpose. BL, however, serves to fantasize the idea of two heterosexual (sometimes bisexual) guys falling in love over the course of unforeseen events. Yes LGBTQ+ issues do come up in BL from time to time but that's all there is to it, that's the fantasy. The entire BL industry is based off of the fantasy. I hate it when I see people commenting to say that BLs basically aren't "Gay" enough. Don't watch the damn shows if you can't accept them for what they are! I love the fantasy and other BL fans like myself also love the fantasy. Please don't spoil it for us!
With that said let me now comment on the quality of 2gether the series. I think the show started it off as a solid 9.5 out of 10 and it held that position right up until Sarawat's leg healed and Tine decided to move into that apartment with him. After that the show's quality seemed to slowly fade to like an 8 out of 10 as of episode 12, in my opinion. Tine moving in with Sarawat was too sudden for me. They needed an entire episode of Sarawat convincing Tine of the reasons why he should move in with him. Moving in with someone is a big deal and it shouldn't be decided whimsically in just one scene. Especially when it's already established that Sarawat had to do the most just to convince Tine to sleep over a night with him. Tine wouldn't just decide in one instance that he wants to live with the guy.
I completely agree with everyone that says the drama between Sarawat and Tine in episode 12 was unnecessary. Pam was basically thrown into the mix to stir up the pot as a last hoorah before the series ends. The little bit of foreshadowing the writers used to justify her entry into the series was weak. But that restaurant scene with Man and Type was really good writing though. When you look back at all of their interactions you see how justifiable that restaurant scene was. It was the hardest scene I've watched for any BL so far this year. Man was basically turned into a boy at that table. Kudos to the actors for pulling off that scene flawlessly. Mil and Phukong's relationship in this series lacks focus, everything is just all over the place with them. Coming into this show the two actors that played them were highly anticipated but it's a shame to see that the script they were given did no real justice for their relationship and the anticipation.
2gether was poised to knock tharntype out of the number two spot for best Thai BL series (Sotus 1&2 being number one of course) but they lost their way coming down to the end. I don't care that the guys aren't ripping clothes off of each other and causing headboards to bang. That's not why I watch BL. I watch BL for the people who create these shows to tell me a good story (sex scenes do add that extra spice to the stories when they are done right though). I don't even care that 2gether deviated from the books as long as the way they decided to tell the story was best for the series. But what they did with Sarawat and Tine's relationship in episode 12 seems a bit cheap. Their experimentation with trying to be creative at the end didn't work. I think sticking to the original story for the end would have been the better choice.
Episode five has made it official guys, so far this show comes in second only to 2gether this year. I had zero expectations when I started watching this show but every week the episodes just keep getting better and better. All three of the couples are very interesting to look at on screen and all three have very distinct stories from each other, then I see there will be a fourth couple later on. Not bad at all.
Dr.Thara/Fong: The series sets up the eventual arrival of this couple very nicely. From the clips I've seen it looks like their story won't disappoint at all. I honestly can't wait to see it unfold.
Mek/Boss: The story of this couple broke my heart in episode 4. Being in love with your best friend but keeping your feelings to yourself because you rather have the friendship than risk losing everything is a very unfortunate situation to be in. Mek really loves Boss but when Boss eventually finds out how will the relationship between them be? I feel so nervous for Mek.
Bohn/Duen: These two work very well together as the lead couple. Their story remains fresh and so far there is always something new about them every week. A lot of BLs with 3 or 4 different couples find themselves in situations where the other couples end up becoming more compelling than the lead by the end of the series. As of episode 5 this couple has maintained their authority as the lead couple. Lets see if they stay that way.
Ram/King: These two are my personal favorites. For now their screen time together is sufficient but as the show progresses I hope to see much much more of them. I find them to be the most intriguing of all the couples. The unfolding of their story is so captivating to watch on screen, and Ram, Damn that guy looks hot!!! Especially with those tattoos on his neck. I never really get caught up with any actor for their looks, only their talents. But Ram.....I honestly think I'm developing a hard crush on that dude.
My engineer is showing great potential to be one of the top five BLs by the end of this year. But its only the 5th episode so far. A lot can happen in the remaining 9 episodes. I'm rooting for this show and holding my breath, hoping that it doesn't lose its way but comes out triumphantly on it's journey to episode 14.
This filming while airing episodes seems to be a common approach in the Thai industry. Even in North America,…
Maybe you are right with the Thai industry, I don't know much about it but I do watch the BLs. But I can tell you that in the west, especially in Hollywood, airing episodes while still filming isn't the norm (a few network shows with low ratings are the exceptions). Most cable execs are comfortable having filmed all their scenes so that it can get worked on in post production while episodes are airing. Filming a full one hour episode takes over a week of production and that can cause the episodes aired to catch up with the episodes that are yet to finish filming , that's why it's very risky to film while airing episodes.
Hmmm.... I see a lot of comments everywhere saying that because of the world's current situation Why R U didn't get the chance to film everything they needed to film. I have no idea what was happening during the production of this show but I think such an excuse highlights gross mismanagement. You are just asking for trouble when episode 2 of your show is airing and you still have filming for episode nine and onward to be done . I would understand if editing is happening for episode 9 while episode 2 is showing, but filming? Anyone who has ever worked on a production would know that's a huge risk that almost always never works out well. Even if we didn't have a global crisis this show still would have ran into huge problems coming down to the end. That's not good at all!
Two episodes into Until We Meet Again I figured it would eventually become a boring series and I was proven right, even though at the time I was the one with the unpopular opinion. This time it seems like more people are seeing what I see. I skipped through the majority of episode nine for Why R U. I was bored predicting how every scene I saw would play out and being right 9 out of 10 times. The show is trying too hard to be cute and lovey-dovey, no let me rephrase that, the fighter/tutor relationship is trying too hard to be cute and lovey-dovey. Episode eight with the Saifah/Zon relationship was way better than episode nine. As a couple, Saifah/Zon have a nice flow on screen and you find yourself invested in their every moment together. They really grabbed my attention last week. At no point during the episode did I find myself annoyed or embarrassed watching them together on my computer screen. This week, however, during most of episode nine........ Then at the end of it all I see that episode ten will basically be a part 2 of episode nine? For heaven's sake! I don't think it's the actors' fault though, I think the writing and directing are to be blamed; they tried too hard to make the fighter/ tutor couple cute and lovey-dovey. In doing so the finished product looked very forced on screen. (Then again some of the faces that Saint makes while trying to seduce Fighter does look over acted a bit, like he has a point to prove)
Hmmm................where do i begin when talking about the final episode of this show? I have read a lot of the…
With all of that said, the people that produce BL series for us, please i beg of you; Don't do that to us ever again! All of us know life sucks and BL is an escape for virtually all of us. Give us the endings we want! It's what gets us through shit.
Hmmm................where do i begin when talking about the final episode of this show?
I have read a lot of the comments about the final episode and i completely understand everyone's disappointment, While watching it i felt disappointed too. It seemed as though this episode reverted us back to the past decades where the vast majority of BL series or movies (Western or Asian) ended in tragedy for the main couple; whether it be a death or not being able to see each other anymore. Sometimes it makes you wonder if that's the same fate that is store for you and your partner, almost like BL couples no matter how much love is between them are condemned for doom.
BUT........... I believe that there is some different in Make Our Days Count's approach to the tragedy. Yes the tragedy did suck and the last episode made us feel like shit whilst watching it, it was painful to sit through. But that's the point my friends! The tragedy wasn't really the focus (which is why we never saw the accident take place), it was the grief that was the focus. Bad things happen to even the best of us and often at times when we least expect it; when we are so happy. The last episode was a cruel reminder of that fact. Xiang Hao Ting had an unimaginable loss and he was deeply grief stricken (powerful acting was done to show us that).
The episode served to tell us that at our absolute lowest point we can still push on. Yes, his grief is still there and probably will always be there but he can get through it each day little by little especially with the support of his family and friends. He can still have aspirations and be a blessing to others even though deep down inside his heart is shattered into a million pieces. Yu Xi Gu not only lives on in Xiang Hao Tin memories but in all of our collective memories of the people that watched the show. Xiang Hao Ting had come to the acceptance of what happened to the boy he loved and made a decision to live on, carrying the memories of all of the good times he had with Yu Xi Gu and live his life in his honor. It's definitely what Yu Xi Gu would have wanted.
(Tears are literally rolling down my cheeks as i wrote that. The episode was so beautiful at showing his grief)
But guys lets also see the positives of the episode, Sun Bo Xiang and Lu Zhi Gang :) Their relationship had a very captivating story arc that resolved in a happy ending for them. Make our Days Count balanced the tragedy of what happened to Yu Xi Gu with the happiness of Lu Zhi Gang perfectly, almost like a poetic nod to life. Bad things happen on one hand while good things happen on the other hand. The only thing that we all can do is Make Our Days Count!
