They probably refused to say it was a romance or bl because it isn’t. it won’t have a happy ending and that’s what an actual romance requires and how Gmmtv views the criteria of a bl. with this new plot twist clearly they won’t end up being with each other but more like help each other grow and find peace and move on from their guilt unfortunately that a romance does not make. It’s very Parbdee to take something tragic and make it semi romantic but have it not a true romance because they are separated by death and the afterlife sigh it’s their ammo only time we got lucky was Be my favorite because it had to fulfill the bl criteria lmao. Parbdee strikes again and I’m not surprised…
Ugh! Peaceful Property! You wanted a cross-class romance!? How about we actually dive into the full-on physical and spiritual oppression that produces those classes?? How about we actually depict capitalist systems as literally horrific?? But let's not stop there!! How about we show the wealthy protagonist as directly complicit in those horrors?? Not enough?? How about we make him literally kill the poorer romantic lead?? How about we actually explore what it would mean for someone whose wealth is built on nepotism and a history of exploited labor to recognize what that means about their relationships to other people in the world?? What kinds of compassion do the wealthy need to ask for and what practices and mindsets do they need to change before those they've hurt can even begin to live life unafraid of financial ruin, let alone actually caring for the wealthy love-interest?? What ghosts haunt a cross-class romance and how can we truly exorcise them????
#the only way it seems for them to give a good writing for bl is only when it’s depressing it seems#or ending with death I just have to laugh#because to me like it can be tweaked every time it can be made into something substantial and deeper and have a happy ending after#they tell the story they want but with Parbdee#especially the bigger Parbdee lot the good writers it’s like queerness is so intertwined with seperation and death#or just intense friendship and tbh I know it’s great writing#it always is with them however it never sits well with me#that that’s all they have the mind for each time they want to#show a bond between two men that’s love but also not#it works cause we desperately need good stories about relationships with men that aren’t bl ified in Thai terms#but it always never sits well with me each time#I wonder why they just can’t make it end fully with that romance after giving a deep complex plot somehow#shipper they gave a way out but never intended to return to focus on the romance of it all#it’s just all so Parbdee#can’t even be shocked they are the team I beg the most for bl#but you only get great writing from these writers effort and what not when they#know they don’t need to add bl to it#and that’s sad cause a bl should have this effort of story telling this pain this healing journey this slow burn and growth#this mystery this fantasy this depth this complexity#even the whole plot is a BL romance and it can end happily it can weave a plot hole it can give the romance at the end#but it won’t happen#and that’s why I’ll be stuck where I am constantly craving something but never really getting it with Parbdee big writers#at least people get to enjoy good writing in gmmtv and get a good story#I just don’t do well with tragedies or seperation so it’ll never be for me#if this was a Kdrama they would make it both romance and semi open at the end cause they know how to do both for het stories#but for bl it’s like it must be one way or another

Remember in episode 11 of Not Me when Black showed up in front of Todd and put a gun to his head, which caused them to fight, and Todd attempted to drown Black, only for him to stop and have a whole ass moment . . .
THINKING ABOUT BLACK SHOWING UP TO HIS PLACE INJURED!
Then, in that memory, Todd questioned Black's "new friends" but he said it in such a way that clearly showed he was jealous
And his demeanor only changed once Black confirmed that he didn't really get along with these "new friends"
So he got up, called Black "an aggressive dog" while patting him like one
ONLY TO LAY DOWN ON THE BED AFTER ROLLING OUT HIS NECK
Remember how Black looked back at Todd laying on the bed?
Why were these decisions made?!
Why were we shown this as if it was an implication that they usually had sex?!
And that only they could hurt each other because they really knew each other, so Todd would rather fight with Black for the rest of his life than have anyone else?
WHY?!
I WANT ANSWERS!
GMMTV, I am begging you to give them back to me! They were enemies AND lovers. They were everything to me, and I need them back! I know I'm not getting them in 2024, but could you think about it for 2025? We're gonna have marriage equality, and I need to see these two fighting it out because Todd is heavily invested in rainbow capitalism so people will overlook the shitty things his companies do with their profits, and Black is blowing up his factories or some shit.
GIVE THEM BACK TO ME!
#ToddBlack#not a day goes by where I don't think of them#I need them back#not me#not me the series#Todd is the best character in that show#and I say that with my entire being#he is the perfect foil#he is everything wrong with that world#yet we still love him#we know what he did#yet we still root for him#he makes you question your beliefs#because we should be firmly on Black's side#yet WE LOVE TODD LIKE BLACK DOES!

hey, mint!! for the ask game:
👀 🔮 🌄
ana darling!! thank you for the ask <3
👀 what do you think about about love triangles in BLs?
mostly don't care for them but it's fun to get invested anyway. i'm a chronic sufferer from second lead syndrome though, and i am usually of the opinion that any love triangle can and should be solved through polyamory.
🔮 show you wish had a second season
i have a few in mind but i'll say vice versa! just because there is so much that i feel did not get unpacked or explained enough in the original show and they did not take those opportunities in their os2 episodes so i would love a season 2 just to know and to finally feel satisfied. plus there's SO much you could do with the in-world aspect of alternate universes in general! anyway this is just me for the 1000th time begging gmmtv to give me tesstun's entire storyline (also more aoufuse!!! always more of them).
🌄 your favorite scene of any BL show
i definitely don't just have one but one of my favorite scenes that came to mind is the (spoilers!) goodbye scene in episode 9 of my only 12%. that show is just incredibly special to me and had a lot of moments where intimate physical gestures that weren't kisses hit just as much or even more than a kiss scene typically would, especially the hug in this scene. the acting and the writing of this scene break my heart everytime, and it perfectly encapsulates the sad but inevitable end of cakeeiw's childhood and the bubble that their friendship and love had existed within until that moment.

now there's my cue to once again plug my joongdunk vampire mentions collection. i mean, come on @ gmmtv, they'd CLEARLY be up for it!!!!!! (bonus point if it's a sexy series)
gmmtv should announce the joongdunk vampire series at their next lineup and officially make gay vampires the next big thing after gay engineers
#come one gmmtv how long do i have to beg you for a#sexy joongdunk vampire bl#i talk about it so much even my autocomplete function on phone's keyboard will suggest these words!!!!!#GMMTV 👏 GIVE 👏 ME 👏 MY 👏 SEXY👏 JOONGDUNK 👏 VAMPIRE 👏 BL 👏 SERIES 👏 ALREADY 👏 CHALLENGE#like. here i am converting people into JD girlies and sexy joongdunk vampire bl truthers and yet gmmtv does absolutely NOTHING about it#for a shame..........#joongdunk#adrm#also moonkhao and i actually talked about putting JD into the vampire project#but we actually came to the conclusion we'd rather not have them there#bc we don't want them to be reduced to a side pair#when i'm advocating for a sexy joongdunk vampire bl then that is one with them as leads thank you very much#(however i WOULD die if my boys got to do a sexy little vampire cameo either in the vampire project or in my golden blood)

I thought it was just me who found the confession scenes so weird like…is this supposed to be a fake reality show? The first episode had zero confessionals??? Help???? Lol
Yeah I'm confused currently on the point of the confessional scenes. Typically they're used either in faux docuseries and/or as a framing device. The first episode didn't establish this was a faux docuseries, nor did it introduce the confessionals as a framing device - or even a narrator which at least could have better led into the confessionals as a framing device.
Like, I couldn't tell if the characters were speaking in the present tense or the past tense in regards to the confessionals either. Which goes back to the use of it as a framing device. If this is like, them speaking from the future, looking back on their past experiences, that could make sense, though I'd ask - why? A narrator in ep01 - like Mew - would've worked better. Another way to make them work better is if the school project they have was for a docuseries or some sort. Or even if one of the friends in the group was into making films and this was a project of their own.
Like, say if Boston or Chueam had an interest in filmmaking and had the idea of filming their friends experiences - think Mark in RENT as an example - at least then you have a reason for the framing device. Right now, it comes across very Big Brother but with no purpose. It's just random. Is every episode going to have these confessionals? Are they leading somewhere? Is there a purpose to them?
Right now it's just giving the audience additional character context via a 4th wall break that we can already glean from in show subtext - Ray finds Top annoying b/c he's in love with Mew, Boston thinks Mew idealizes love and is naive which contrasts how Boston views relationships - so it's not really adding anything to the characters or story.
Idk I'll keep an open mind about them, they could at least be fun if they didn't look so cheap - GMMTV I am begging y'all to invest in your BL series jfc come on - but yeah hopefully the show provides some context for them in the future.

for @hoppipolla , two music tags in one shot
🎶Rules: You can usually tell a lot about a person by the type of music they listen to. Put your (i used my spotify on repeat) playlist on shuffle and list the first ten songs, and then tag ten people. No skipping!
🎶Rules: When you get this, list 5 songs you’ve been listening to & tag people.
i made a 15-song playlist in that order (e.g. first my on-repeat playlist shuffle and then five curated) containing:
เปลี่ยนคะแนนเป็นแฟนได้ไหม (LOVE SCORE) / sizzy & nanon (this song is so annoying. i love it. tattoo it on my bones)
เบื่อคนขี้เบื่อ (i’m not boring, you’re just bored / tilly birds (only friends mental real estate shutdown)
ghosting / tomorrow by together
WUSYANAME / tyler the creator & youngboy never broke again & ty dolla sign
SoulMate / zico & iu
IF YOU PRAY RIGHT / brockhampton (im on a ‘ginger’ kick again recently. what can i say i love that album)
blue wave / nct dream (continuing tradition of me loving all water-related nct songs. dive into you is my favorite nct song ever. this one is so summery & fun)
へでもねーよ (lasa edit) / fujii kaze (the only english translations i can find have ‘hedemo ne-yo’ as “I DONT GIVE A FART” which is. uh. actually its perfect never change)
bite me / enhypen (i think they maybe shouldve waited to release this one until all their members were older than 18 so i dont feel so weird about it. buuut. its so good. so so good.)
โต๊ะริม (melt) / nont tanont (wayv released a cover of this a bit back, which is why i know it, and its just so nice. harmonies 🥰)
leave me alone / i don’t know how but they found me
FOUR / daisy (spotify recommended me this very nearly at random one day. i am not sure what genre it is. it fucks IMMENSELY please listen to it)
dirty dancer / orion sun
dum dum / jeff satur (i was late to actually listening to this song. i got so inundated with mv gifs that i never even watched it. anyway its really good! shocker)
save your tears / the weeknd (but SPECIFICALLY the fluke gawin & aye sarunchana cover, please put it on spotify somehow im begging u gmmtv)
plus four bonuses also from my on repeat because it bothered me how few women were on this list despite that not being my usual demographic makeup:
i love you but i love me more / marina & beach bunny
the perfect pair / beabadoobee
heart attack / loona chuu
save me / mamamoo+
i’m doing this on data from the car so; @catbiodolor? can i convince you to try either of them? its fine if no :)

so i was tagged by @lurkingteapot to list my 9 favorite tv shows. i find it difficult to define "favorite" so i'm just gonna list a whole bunch of current faves, past faves, and other series that stuck with me or have a special place in my heart for whatever reason.
tagging @magsimags @newyearknwwme @swabianhotpocket @killiru @gaym3bo1 @ranchthoughts @gillianthecat @feralmuskyscentedhoepran @telomeke – feel free to ignore this if you've been tagged already or if you don't feel like participating <3
here are mine in alphabetical order (bc i really CAN'T do a ranking):
(details under the cut)
bad buddy series:
you've seen the state of my blog for the past 1.5 years. i'm not even gonna elaborate
galavant:
I MISS GALAVANT EVERY SINGLE DAY. it was gone too soon, even if the renewal for a second season was a huge surprise (forever sad we couldn't get a 3rd season).
please this series is so funny and entertaining and just iconic. the dialogue is SOOOO quotable and the songs are so funny and amazing!!!!!!!!!! (i mean hello it's alan menken!!!!!)
it's got badass ladies, a pathetic little meow meow king, A DRAGON (i super believe in tad cooper <333), an army of gays, pirates who are the lords of the sea (except for the part with the sea), a knight in shinging armour who is some over-muscled chauvinistic self-indulgent egotistic stingy prissy narcisissy jackass in a caaaaaaan, and so much more
PLEASE IF YOU LOVE DISNEY MOVIES AND MUSICALS AND FOURTH WALL BREAKS DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND GO WATCH THIS LITTLE GEM OF A SERIES. PLEASE. it's my favorite thing ever <333333333
fun fact: the title of my blog which goes "oh poop, i got gravy on my tummy flowers!" is a quote from this series
moonlight chicken:
this is one of the 3 series that i've rated as a 10/10 on mydramalist, so i HAD to include it and well. it's just. i don't know how to put it into words
this series and the characters just feel so real. i like how every single character has their own baggage to carry and how they all come together and influence each other. and i really like that this isn't your standard fluffy romance story. actually, one of my favorite things in this series is how the break-up between alan and wen is a major plot line. and i like how messy it all is, how long it takes them to actually draw the line. again, it just feels so real.
not to mention there's a deaf character!!!! please heart and li ming were just so wholesome 🥺🥺🥺 and li ming's relationship with his uncle was just so endearing
once again i am begging gmmtv:
FIRSTMIX MAIN COUPLE SERIES WHEN????
can we please, PLEASE, have another series with earth and fourth as an uncle/nephew duo?? fuck romantic actor pairs, give me familial ones!! you've already let fourth keep the same mother* two series in a row, let him keep the uncle too!!!! *(on that note: i ADORE lookwa. i don't fuck but she's a milf)
orphan black:
i'm not sure i ever actually finished this series (i think i'm still missing the final season??) but i just HAD to include it bc tatiana maslany, okay. tatiana maslany. that's it, that's all i'm gonna say
skam (norsk):
you had to be there
supernatural:
og followers will remember when this was still a spn blog. yes, this show makes the list. once a spn blog, always a spn blog*. free me.
*fun fact: this started as a spn blog and that's something that's actually still visible in my tagging system. spn is the only show where i don't tag episodes as #series abbreviation 1.01 but i tag the ep by the number itself without specifying the series
the brightest star in the sky:
during the pandemic my mom came to me and said "you need to watch this series. the male lead reminds me so much of your brother". i watched it with her. she was right. the male lead is exactly like my little brother. to the point where there was this one scene where the male lead was criticizing the female lead's outfit and my mom and i laughed and went "[brother] would totally say this too" and only a few days later my brother and i had a conversation about clothing over lunch and my brother said almost exactly the same thing as the male lead in that one scene and i looked at my mom in surprise and went "did you tell him about that scene????" as my mom was cracking up and shaking her head that no, she had not.
although, when i say the male lead is exactly like my brother, that's a lie. in fact, he's a mix of both my brother and an old friend of ours who was always like a second little brother to me (the two of them actually had similar personalities when they were teens)
and the female lead reminds me of a female friend that was also in the friend group with us (and who is one of my brother's best friends)
in fact, the dynamic between the male lead and the female lead reminds me very much of the dynamic between my brother and said female friend
all in all, the main characters are just very familiar to me and remind me of people i adore and that's why this series has a special place in my heart. (even if i constantly want to punch zheng boxu. sibling love <3)
theory of love:
ok i know this is kind of a controversial one, bc people seem to either love it or hate it BUT. just know that this series and especially the khaithird plot was made for me, and me personally <3
this series came to me at exactly the right time. it was like a mirror to my own life at the time and brought a lot of catharthis. i was going through a "break-up" with my own personal irl-khai back then and this series helped me deal with that, helped me get over him, and reconfirmed to me over and over again that i had taken the right decisions.
theory of love is also the thai drama that i've seen the most amount of times (i've watched the khaithird plot 27x that i've counted as of july 2nd, 2023) (though by now bbs is a close second with 22 full watches that i've counted as of july 2nd, 2023 and it might surpass theory of love at some point now that my personal irl-khai is no longer relevant in my life in any way. you know what that is!! growth!!!! the day bbs surpasses tol is the day i really, truly AM well and over my irl-khai)
you're beautiful:
ok. ok. hear me out. this is a kdrama from 2009, right?? but i didn't watch it until november 2021 where i'd had quite a day and in the evening was super exhausted and just wanted a zero-braincell show to watch and this happened to be on netflix and looked like the perfect thing for my state
little did i know it was gonna be a million-braincell show for me.
basically, i ended up being really entertained by it, saw that there were remakes, decided to check those out too and well. it got my little actor brain going. i started analyzing the acting (comparing esp the og korean version with the taiwanese remake) and it turned into this whole thing where i wrote pages and pages of notes in a google doc. i learned a lot through that and luckily we had camera acting classes at drama school during that period, so it was perfect timing. i suddenly understood so many things and what an effect it can have on the viewer if you do (or don't do) something a certain way
(oh and then a year later i inflicted this series on a uni friend of mine and it turned into this whole acting analysis project after i'd mentioned about something about acting and went "wait, i have THE perfect example for what i mean where you can see it first-hand." we had a great time and then binged the entire series during semester break. i'm planning on getting her into thai ql too, but unfortunately we're both super busy and don't really have time to watch series together)
honorary mentions:
ever night: i watched only the first season, though. and it's been a while since i saw it (3 years ago during lockdown) and so i don't remember the plot very well but... beautiful cinematography. loveable characters. fantastic acting. also the special effects when the main character did those "spells" (forgot what it was called) looked so cool??????
why r u: that was my first thai bl. the one that pulled me into the world of thai drama. considering how i'm mostly a thai drama blog now and the rebranding started with this series i couldn't not mention it, could i
my school president: it has to make the list just for episode 6 alone (gun desperately wanting to know which person from the music club tinn likes but being terrified ask and deep down knowing the answer already anyway but not feeling ready to hear it???? ooooooof that's so me-coded). anyway, all in all it's just a very sweet and wholesome drama and i'm still listening to a bunch of the songs a lot
the fosters: i was obsessed with this back in 2015. i stopped watching it shortly before the jonnor break-up bc i was busy at the time and when i saw the spoilers about the break-up i couldn't be bothered to catch up. but yeah, i was really into it for a while as well
andi mack: i've made multiple gifsets of that show. i don't gif a lot so yeah. considering that i bothered to sit down and make gifs for this, i think andi mack deserves an honorary mention. i wasn't suuper obsessed with it but i did quite like watching it
merlin (bbc): it's just very entertaining ok and the characters are fun to watch and have fun dynamics
#i can't believe i actually managed to NOT have all 9 of them be thai dramas???? wow#in fact only 1/3 of them are thai dramas#also i love how 2/3 of those thai dramas are p'aof dramas dfkjgkdfg like on brand for me isn't it#tag game

Gmmtv 2025 trailer thoughts!!!!
This isn’t everything, just what I wanted to watch so here to go! I’ve bolded the ones I’m most anticipating knowing we won’t see 70% of these until 2026. This is mostly for my reference later:
Dare you to Death
Joong Dunk— non college!! Cops?? Detectives? Horror / Thriller -the ensemble slasher horror of my dreams that I was begging for after DFF
Head to Head
SeaKeen — Enemies / childhood friends to lovers; it’s giving I saw you in my dream??!?!? I love them your honor
Burnout Syndrome
OffGun throuple show??? Mature stand in type plot - artist / mafia?? I am manifesting polycule
Whale Store xoxo
MilkLove romcom -grocery store in trouble (only boo vibes) I will watch for the vibes and romance of course
Only Friends: Dream On
only friends spinoff with earth mix, joss gawin, ohm leng ?!???! OMG NEO (I love the thought of Boston being this omniscient character that kinda the bearer of chaos and destruction); this is hell part 2
That Summer
SatangWinny with fake amnesia plot (mond with somebody!!) princess protection program BL
My Romance Scammer
JuiniorMark with a quickie marriage plot w/ scammers (kinda cute-wait I’m hooked) + new couple that’s so cute!
Melody of Secrets
FORCEBOOK PSCOLOHICAL THILLER THIS IS FOR ME IM LITERALLY CRYING PLS
Love You Teacher
PerthSanta teacher romance (this is adorable and everything to me) chemistry is crazy out of this world ; amnesia again??? This is not the age gap romance i want 😭
Cat for Cash
FirstKhao; cat whisperer rom com (cute and silly) will watch for the relationships
My Magic Prophecy
JimmySea fortune teller meets doctor drama (this one was kinda spoiled by the interwebs but not any less excited) they mean everything to me
A Dog and A Plane
TayNew flight attendant and rescuer romcom ; tay with tattoos is fucked; it’s kinda giving everything
Me and Thee
PondPhuwin - mafia and photographer ; teaching the art of pursing and dating (!!!) then they fall in love?? I have a soft spot for Phuwin playing soft characters
Wu
another fortune teller drama with the high school frenemy boys 👀 action!! romance?? Fun
Memoir of Rati
GreatInn historical romance!! they look great as per usual (AouBoom delegated to side couple again 😔) the gays can never win in a historical
Ticket to Heaven
GeminiFourth religious drama?? what the hell is happening? - ultimate angst (this will change lives and I can’t wait)
Okay that’s all! I have trailer fatigue lol. But here’s overall thoughts:
You couldn’t have paid me to guess like 90% of these plots, it’s so outlandish and fun
Everything is kinda leaning supernatural lowkey which I love
This is far more satisfying then the 2024 trailers and shows - like I’m here for it all
No AouBoom lead 😭😭 my beloveds deserve more (my hot take is that they should’ve been in the only friends spin off - however I digress)
I am firmly sat

unbiased honest review/ranking/rating of gmmtv2025 bl shows.
god it took me so long to watch it all 🤧
16. cat for cash (firstkhao)- 1/10 im so sorry but honestly no comment. it was a drag to even watch the rest, 30 secs into the trailer
15. my romance scammer (dunno the actors other than ohm) - 3/10. ariana what are you doing here !! i was just shocked that ohm was apart of gmmtv? but the plot itself, i dont find that interesting.
14. boys in love (im guessing the newbies?) - 5/10. typical high school show, opposite attracts, and i think that's win's brother right? yeah its typical. dont get me wrong i love a good high school drama tho
13. burnout syndrome (offgundew) - 5/10. love triangle. thats it.
12. only friends dream on (an ensemble that i dont remember other than earthmix and ohm) - 5/10. wasnt a big fan of og only friends. this one is kinda giving worse.
11. that summer (winnysatang) - 6/10. yeah. not much to say. sorry, i do have a sort of small affection for winnysatang tho.
10. head 2 head (the only boo couple, sorry forgot their names) - 6/10. hm good cliche plot. idm cliche but their acting skills are kind of in the ground based on what i just watched. the 2nd couple's vibes were a bit better. oh and the sudden 'can see into the future' ??? what for ?
9. memoir of rati (greatinn) - 6/10. again not very interesting. points for just being a period drama.
8. a dog and a plane (taynew) - 6.5/10. basic plot. an extra .5 for just taynew.
7. wu - skynani - 6.5/10 i actually have no thoughts about this trailer, i havent even watched their school frenemy (???) school 2013 remake but i heard fans were going crazy over their bromance and were begging for a series. and i was really excited for them for some reason. (this also might be bromance tho)
6. my magic prophecy (jimmysea) - 6.5/10 now why on earth is there so many see into the future/fate dramas. what. but while watching i just thought jimmy got so much better at acting and he got much hotter so... points to you jimmy.
5. dare you to death (joongdunk) - 6.8/10 now, im saying this as a crime detective law thriller mystery show fan who has watch way too many for her own good :( the mystery part. absolutely basic. points to the main couple's dynamic BUT im so goddamn sorry to jd fans but their acting reeks. joong, i used to like him but maybe bc of his older roles that were pretty much the same i didnt really realise what about his acting i didnt like but in this trailer i saw it: he just tries too hard to be hot. oh wait no as i am typing i think i realised that in the heart killer trailer too but i realised it again. and dunk... i think its time to head back to acting class mate. no charisma at all for a stoic detective. yeah its kinda giving danmei dectective male leads. cocky cop, stoic detective.
4. love you teacher (perthsanta) - 7/10 omg the first 30 seconds HAD SO MUCH POTENTIAL and then it went downhill. i am seeing some ppl react negatively to the age regression plot so maybe we can bully them out of it? please? but perth. i always knew since lbc you'd become a good actor.
3. melody of secrets (forcebook) - 7/10 again a couple i also think that has horrible acting (again i am sorry to the fans). but i think this drama has potential if they brush up on the editing and directing. and obviously brush up the acting department most. please.
2. me and thee (pondphuwin) - 8/10 heyyyyy they switched ! maybe it was the characters that didnt fit phuwin, but yes, i also thought his acting was horrible. sue me. but he totally shined in this trailer. natural with charm. and pond too. what a himbo.
1. ticket to heaven (geminifourth) - 9/10 dont lie to yourself. you know this was the best trailer of the night. tbh i dont have much to say other than, finally! a serious drama for geminifourth. i just hope this drama doesnt reach the wrong crowd. and its a point off cause well. im that strict.

So after I made gifs it’s time for a round up where I talk about all BL’s and the GL’s for GMMTV and the one non BL/GL I am interested in. Along with my rank in order of which ones I like the most.
Midnight Museum
So hold on! P’tor and Gun in a series together? Wow. That alone already had me interested. Then I saw the trailer and wow this looks interested and definitly something I want to watch.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QGCM2PO9vU
#1 Only Friends
Yo friends with benefits? Messy as hell story? Upgraded version of Fahlanruk! And that from GMMTV? GMMTV being bold here. I am totally here for this. I loved Friendzone and this is from the same director so bring it on. Also we see a new pairing here which is NeoMark. They are going to be in 2 BL’s together. I wonder why GMMTV is trying out a new pairing with Neo? Do they feel like NeoLouis isn’t good enough? I am afraid they might sink that ship and I would be sad about it since I really like them.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veex4hF7wj4&t=4s
#2 Cooking Crush
Offgunnnnnnnnnn. Enough said. I totally didn’t expect this but I am so happy. This looks like a light hearted romcom so bring it on.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDabs7Cc_yA&t=4s
#3 Last Twilight
I have not watched Vice Versa and I also don’t plan on doing so. So I have no opinions on Jimmy and Sea’s acting. But I trust P’aof. This story is definitly something we have not seen in a Thai BL. 100% sad story and unless he doesn’t end up going blind in the end it’s a sad ending no matter what. So I will prepair tissues once it airs. I also really like the cinematography here.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oCqs7Ikfxo&t=6s
#4 Hidden Agenda
So I love JoongDunk but why another uni BL with them? I wish it was something else and I am also not 100% sold on the story. But I will watch this because it’s also not a 100% turn of for me.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMLWl6xVt-U&t=3s
#5 A Boss And A Babe
Seriously change the title! I beg you! This sounds rediculous. This one is pretty low because while I do not mind office romance the trailer was messy. We saw a bit of e-sports only for it to be thrown out the rest of the trailer. This is also by director New so my hopes for this being good is low.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=388W0CMt2bw&t=6s
#6 Our Skyy 2
Lowest one on the list of what I would watch. And it’s simply because it’s just one special ep for each pairing. So no priority for me to watch this.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaVz3vwzKm8
#7 Dangerous Romance
The plot looks interested but it has Perth in it so I have zero interest in watching this. If someone else but Perth was paired with Chimon I would have watched this. Also will they let Perth sing the OST? Because for the love of god no. I am still traumatized by his OST for Tell The World I Love You.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PAnFhQxpVo&t=1s
#8 Cherry Magic
Look a Cherry Magic remake it self I have no problems with. But TayNew? New the guy who made fun of disabled people and never apologized for it? Yeh I will pass. But I also I wonder how Thailand will try and pull this off since Japan has a very specific type of humour only Japan can pull of.
23.5
Since this is a GL no rank for it since I will watch anyways. I am glad we are getting another GL. But I wonder if if GMMTV put in a side BL couple hoping it will attrack more viewers?
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72jftPTXeMA&t=3s
Anything else I want to say?
Yes I am upset by the lack of Louis and Pawin. Both only have 1 side role and they deserve better. I just hope they will let Louis sing lots of OST’s then. And that’s also how I feel about Arm. I know he has lots of other work but come one give him a lead role somewhere.

Get well soon 💕 gmmtv is about to announce their series lineup for next year, what's your ultimate wishlist? forget about what's plausible or possible, just go nuts!
thank you!! this is very sweet since I’m bored in the hospital and aaaaah my wishlist is :
OffGun - I know I don’t post about them that often but I really do love them. I know Sean’s little speech at the end of Not Me sounded like a retirement but that was before Cutie Pie and Kinnporsche and LITA so I think GMM can’t afford an OG retirement if they’re gonna compete
FK but not Eclipse 2 - other than that season 2s are often more cursed than not I would very much like to see first khao play different roles they’re too talented to be playing the same characters
TayNew - which is random I know but I started to get myself hyped about them because it seemed so likely that they’ll make a comeback and now I’m invested LOL and will be genuinely disappointed if we don’t get a TayNew drama
MLC I am crying and begging for them to release this drama - if earthmix gets ANOTHER drama I will be overjoyed too but they have consistently had dramas since atots (and two with Aof!!!) and I think it’s too greedy to give them GMM’s top scripts for next year. So I rather they wait than do something subpar

my gmmtv 2023 review
the interest - now why are we giving pretty privilege boy roles out of his range. AGAIN. be so serious rn. you know who would’ve slayed this role? apo. might watch though ngl lol
beauty newbie - i was like totally sold on it until win came on screen lol it is funny though that he is playing eunwoo’s role... you know... the pretty privilege boys together
our skyy 2 - it’s giving kpop boy group and that’s not a compliment. also there is no way these couples are popular? earthmix ohmnanon and firstkaoh sure i believe you but the rest? somebody call nugupromoter. no offense to joong.
midnight museum - finally real fucking television. finally gun being cast with a fellow ACTOR. i win. like im so excited ARE YOU DUMB!!!!
the jungle - this doesnt have subs PISSING ME OFF. they need to stop trying to sell us krist as a casanova be so serious rn. the male cast is mostly but not entirely bad... while the female cast is excellent i fear so yes i think i will watch this...
dangerous romance - i dont know what that trailer was supposed to be lol i’ll wait for it to come out to decide ... it doesnt look... good? um... but i guess
faceless love - i do not like dew. sorry to him but in association to bw i do not like him. i was surprised to see peach here? let out a scream when i saw kao. my baby kao being paired up with the enemy i could cry.... you know im watching this be so fucking serious. i see this is based off a jdrama... that i didnt like lol but whatever
only friends - this looks soooooooooo messy. drama of the year idk
loneliness society - there’s A LOT of remakes this year... i kinda wanna watch this but i also kinda dont wanna watch anything with joss in it so idk
last twilight - YOU WILL NEVER BE LAST TWILIGHT IN PHUKER YOU WILL NEVER BE TEH AND OH-AEW YOU WILL NEVER BE BKPP GIVE UP. this sounds like a really interesting concept gmmtv does not have the range for.... but... i might give one or two episodes a chance because again. interesting concept.
wednesday club - the absolute happiness i got when i saw jane here bro she didnt post ANYTHING about this i thought she had no projects i was losing it... MESSY MESSY MESSY YOU KNOW I WILL BE TUNING IN BE SO FUCKING SERIOUS RN ANOTHER CONTENDER FOR DRAMA OF THE YEAR excited for ohm jane and joon together SLAY!
cooking crush - give this ship up to god i BEG gun is way too good for this when will he get something on his level. i would watch for gun honestly. but it doesnt even look GOOD
phro thoe khue rak raek - this does not have an english name. does that mean it’s a lakorn? i dont really like those... i also dont like that prim (it girl btw) is being paired with dew and this is not my vendetta against him i SWEAR it’s because he looks so much older than her even though i googled it and it’s 4 years but idk she’s still a kid
23.5 - well im obviously watching this be so serious rn lol they really threw some bl there out of nowhere i was so confused like alskfjaksjfalk CAN WE LEAVE WOMEN ALONE? PLEASE? anyways this looks so cute uwu
hidden agenda - i REALLY like joong and i wish all of the projects gmmtv give him didnt SUCK like lmao i am so upset give him something good i beg of you. and if you must use him as fanservice at least AT THE VERY LEAST give him a partner that is up to his caliber. couldnt they just pair joong with jamie IDK! remember my post where i said men get everything handed to them with lead roles for their debut and girls have to work in the background for years to be promoted to support actresses?
double savage - terrible name but i saw ohm with a gun so slay. i didnt understand this trailer at all to be honest but i think i might watch? looks very different from what they usually do so that’s interesting
find yourself - you had me at older woman younger man i fear alskfjakjfa ONE OF MY FAVORITE TROPES AND GUILTY PLEASURES... IF YOU WILL and honestly i was upset because to me it looked like the male lead was 25 and the female lead was like 30 so i was like BOO TOMATO TOMATO they arent even committing but then i googled them and turns out he’s 26 and she’s 42 WOAH that’s a lot. well anyways i most likely will watch this. ok so the characters... 23 and 38... oh that’s bad. just turn off your brains girlies
a boss and a babe - it doesnt look BAD but it doesnt look... good....
enigma - i was REALLY into this until i saw win.... that man does not have the range for this.... also.... is that like... a teacher student relationship.... um.......... i HOPE im the one misunderstanding because that would ruin an otherwise really promising drama?
two videos are hidden and i dont know what they are?... one is definitely cherry magic but what’s the other one and why arent they there? anyways i gotta SAYYYYY i am very curious to see that trailer alskfjaskfjakl
overall thoughts:
i think (at least from this trailers) gmmtv dramas are starting to look better visually which is crazy. but i wonder if they simply used this level of quality because it’s just like. trailers and not the real thing. i hope not because it looks a lot better like this
i dont know if im in the wrong here but i am growing progressively angrier and honestly resentful of bls. the way they are favored the way we get quantity over quality the way they overshadow everything the way they inevitably result in women being thrown to the back and neglected. im starting to think a mass extinction needs to happen. boycotting it isnt enough i need them gone.
you gotta give it to them, they DID stray away from what they usually do in terms of genres and stories...
gmmtv is actually fun when you ignore the bl and focus on the rest i always say this!
i dont think i saw gawin ONCE....
no way they’re promoting gawin and krist as a couple😭
i didnt see kapook :( like... she got no projects but i know she was there meaning she’s back to background character :(((
i couldnt help but notice milklove outdid literally half of the bl couples in interactions on twitter and i smile.
honestly. after comparing this year’s review to the last two I HAVE TO SAY. this is MILES better than anything they’ve done before...
i swear to god gmmtv had so many female rookies and i say NONE of them other than prim? although she’s barely even a rookie atp... but the other girls where are they? i swear to god there were at least 5..... nowhere to be seen here
i feel like they are giving prim main girl treatment and that is very pleasing to me bc she is a STAR easily the best actress gmmtv has currently (from the younger side at least)
oh and i forgot. what a wasted opportunity not to have tor and kao together. en fin la hipotenusa.

Theory of Love Live Blogging
Another OffGun show! After I watch this, I would’ve watched all the first full-length BLs of the GMMTV original trio or whatever (SOTUS, Dark Blue Kiss, Theory of Love).
I’ve seen so many clips and no random stuff about it because people reference it often (esp because I started getting into OffGun since I liked Not Me and SeanWhite), so it’ll be interesting to see the context of those clips and references.
I’m expecting it to be a frustrating and angsty show, sprinkled with humour.
Also note to self: remember to watch the deleted scenes and Special
Episode 1 (May 30)
1-1
yo, great start actually. all the movies Third reviews involves falling in love with your friend with Khai always in the background, sometimes mirroring what Third’s talking about (like Third talking about the character being jealous when the friend they like is being lovey-dovey and Khai starts talking sweetly on the phone)
Khai’s a cheater? 😭 with twins no less, he’s a menace. i support being a slut but be one who communicates and is honest. anyway any twin stuff and off obviously reminds me of not me
lol Third’s dramatics. I didn’t realize the shower crying was straight up from the first episode
ew why is Two so sleazy? Khai is too a bit but Two’s scene with the photography thing was so uncomfortable
dang Khai really doesn’t give Third a break. First hit him with all the begging and bribing to get BP tickets and then after Third goes through all the trouble, dash his hopes of going together by getting the tickets himself and going with the girl he’s seeing. It’s not necessarily Khai’s fault that Third’s crushing on him so hard and he didn’t even know Third bought an extra ticket to go with him but the way he acts is still a bit dickish
1-2
Khai a dumbass for that very public provocation
Khai really knows how to get Third to do stuff by putting on that cute act
trying to remember if this is the outfit Third wore in the ubiquitous clip of seeing Khai and crying while eating a burrito
oh yes, pretty sure the outfit he changed into is it
I get why Third’s in the state he is though like if Khai was just leeching off of him or getting him to run errands, Third could probably get over him easier but the guy repays him by doing the movie review and suggests going to the movies together, so it would hurt more when he’s let down (especially since he defended Khai against Two and Bone)
1-3
Third’s subdued reaction, just the teary eyes, is so good
“Knowing how stupid it is to do what he’s doing, he does it anyway.” At least Third’s self aware to an extent, although he does view life/the events in a dramatic, movie way.
1-4
girl the bidet?!
third really fell at first sight, dang
alskdja the way my eyes widened at Two directly asking Third if he liked Khai. He seems sympathetic enough, at least
Episode 2 (May 30)
2-1
lol Two is certainly eager to help Third
Are there female characters in this who isn’t either a shitty girlfriend or has any life/personality outside of squealing over which guys the show wants the audience to find attractive
not Khai being jealous already. Question is whether it’s a “i like him and am jealous without realizing” thing or “umm Third must pay me the most attention and help me always” selfish thing
Khai talks so sweetly to him sometimes for real “If I didn’t have you, how would I live?” like my guy you’re killing Third
2-3
ooh I saw a bit of a clip of the 10 Things I Hate About You recreation, didn’t realize Third was just imagining it lol It would’ve been so fun if I was actually familiar with the movies the show’s referencing
2-4
Gun’s character being bold and confessing here and also in Puppy Honey is interesting. I like forwardness in characters who are expected to be the one being pursued based on stature/tropes/archetypes
is Khai actually that dense or just letting Third down easy?
Two and Third’s plans are so alskdjak 😭 freaking funny
alskdja not the “Don’t say this to other people, they’ll fall in love with you” from Khai to Third! Idk how Third’s trudging along, all of Khai’s lines would mess with my head so much
They succeeded in creating the most contrived roommates plot though, so thanks for making this little domestic montage possible.
ooh, is this one of the love interest girls who’s supposed to be a fine woman, the first one in the show?
her wanting a romantic, stress-free one so that she doesn’t have to do critical thinking soooo true
Episode 3 (May 31)
3-1
The furniture shopping! I saw a clip of this before too. friends to lovers + roommates lends itself to so much domesticity before they’re dating (which means, once again, RIP Third)
Also, this episode is called Friends With Benefits (in English) and I was huh? So I looked at each episode’s poster on MDL and seems like each episode is named after a different movie. That’s so cool, wish I freaking watched any of them lol
Khai’s such an asshole, why is he acting like Third’s his chef/cleaner/home caretaker T.T It’d make him seem less like an asshole if they had a conversation about Third paying him for letting him stay in his condo by doing chores around the house but still somewhat asshole-ish because he’s so... dismissive toward Third
Khai bragging about his sexual prowess/stamina to Third lmfao
“I think I’ve made a wrong decision moving in with him” yeah, I’m not actually sure what you were trying to accomplish
took a little break to go through tiktok for a bit and lost my entire mind at this one where kinn slaps porsche a little. [extremely nsfw thoughts] anyway, i’m back now again ig
3-2
Ooh, the girl Two likes played May in SOTUS. I know Two and Earth’s character gets together and this is an unrequited crush I think?
No way Faisah also turned out to be a freaking weirdo? Grabbing Third’s phone like that, bruh no way. Is it that they make Khai’s gfs terrible so that we want him and Third to be together even more?
Bro Khai’s assholery never ends fr
3-3
THIRD NO
Third knowing full well his crush and the girl are gonna be in bed together and still taking a peek and then crying his heart out. my guy... why did you do that to yourself
I don’t care about Two’s crush Lynn
Khai turning the “oh you like me living with you because you practically get a live in maid” to “no, my life’s been better with you in it” is so genius of him. Third really does need to move out
but rip Khai saying he cares about Third more than Faisah probably touched Third’s heart even though he obviously will care more about his friend than the girl he doesn’t like?! this dude’s words just pulls Third back in every time
3-4
“Between a girl and my friend, who do you think I’d choose” “Friend?” “Girl.” “Why’d you ask me then?” “I’m saying it’s different. With girls I use my body. With you, I use my heart.” Khai is seriously soooooo laksfj
To nobody’s surprise, Third stays
Episode 4 (May 31)
4-1
Crying, was the egg + hand motion supposed to resemble grabbing balls?!
They’re really selling small, short, long, jumbo sausages! And whoever buys can do whatever they want to them T.T dead. Also replayed Khai’s “not choking!” a few times lol
“Why do I have to have feelings for a douchebag like him?” lmao rip Third
Third: Don’t sweettalk me. Khai: sweettalks him. Third: fuck!
4-2
I don’t care about Bone’s side romance either but I do like it when younger man likes a older woman, so maybe they’ll win me over
All these casual indirect kisses gonna make Third’s brain explode
“You already have dark skin, don’t let your heart be dark too!” NOT THIS?!
Bro Khai even says “I have a date with you” like truly how is Third supposed to get over him?
4-3
Man, this is actually so </333 Third talking about how the main leads have different opinions and we just saw Khai and Third have different opinions, how the FL has an unrequited love at the beginning of the movie but the ML pursues her by the end and we know that’s how this show will go ahh </33
Bro I don’t care about Bone being stood up, sorry!
Don’t these people have passwords on their laptops tf
Bruh, Two’s “I came first” logic is so ?? Okay, who gives a shit if you liked her since high school, if she doesn’t like you then get over her. I was annoyed at Un first cuz who cares if Two has a crush but now I’m just annoyed at both.
4-4
What is up with Khai? Why’s so nice and attentive toward Third? It’s gonna hurt even more when Khai starts being dickish again
Dude, Khai’s even letting Third ride Chawee when only his faen would be allowed on it? Even said Third’s living with him like he’s his faen anyway T.T Is it Khai’s freaking plan to make Third fall for him and unable to get over him or something
Not the singing scene lol but then the little montage of Third thinking of all the nice things Khai’s done for him ummm why is Khai being so nice, it’s making me nervous
it’s like a lower level “I bet I can make them fall for me” bet where Khai did all the same things as one would do for the previous bet but with the intention of figuring out whether Third likes him. Shitty to do all that for someone you don’t like
“I forgot what an asshole he was” I didn’t forget but if I didn’t know the beats of this story, I might’ve bought it lol. He really was sooo sugary and nice and flirty this episode
Episode 5 (May 31/June 1)
5-1
Finally Third’s gonna try to get over him, I guess. rip Khai being confused as all hell though
Oh, I know apparently Khai finds some video confession that Third likes him, is this the video he’ll find?
5-2
Is this foreshadowing the motorcycle accident I know is gonna come
lmfao Third getting frustrated and angry thinking of 10 Things He Hates About Khai
There are many things I don’t want in my BLs and “guy hanging around the girl he likes and ~consoling~ her when she fights with her bf to show that he’s a good friend and secretly waiting for his chance” or whatever is one of them. I wouldn’t have thought this much into it if he didn’t have the “why should I get over her, I was here first” thing. The word Un uses for him in 5-3 is opportunistic.
I don’t care about Two or Bone’s side relationships but is Bone pretending that he’s older, around the woman’s age?
5-4
rip Third shaming Khai for “whoring around” like bro he’s allowed to whore around all he wants, what’s bad is that he doesn’t take into account how he affects other people
Wait, hold on the girl telling Khai “Good boy. You’ll be rewarded for your obedience.” Okayyyy *eyes emoji*
Third don’t stir up shit right now, I need to see more of Khai be obedient to this girl >.<
I mean ?! Third and Khai are both being assholes right now but is it fair for them all to gang up on Khai? Khai definitely shouldn’t have said the “until he’s my bitch” thing but Third hasn’t been speaking nicely about Khai either. They enabled his behaviour for so long but now they’re all feeling guilty since it hurts their other friend Third? Even though their other friend isn’t being nice to Khai either.
No like Two and Bone are leaving Khai to do his part of the project for what reason? They’re not better than Khai in terms of sleeping around, so they’re only mad at him for the Third thing but like... Khai hasn’t always been nice to Third anyway and Third was also being an asshole, so why are they icing out Khai so much?
Oof, how do I feel about that scene where Khai returns the laptop. I’m guessing he saw the file Third made and knows Third likes him because people said that happens? Khai seemed... careful. Is it too early in the show for that?
lmfao Bone’s been ditching the class his crush has started teaching
Episode 6 (June 1)
6-1
Wait... does Khai not know that Third likes him them? I would think that maybe he’d be nice enough to not drag Third along to buy his girl a lipstick if he knew.
This is so fucked up, the chance of Third getting over Khai when they keep hanging around each other is 0%
first of all, if you get drunk enough that you just go kissing random people without asking and stuff, fuck you. second of all, calling a different person’s name ?! T.T I think I did hear that Khai did that but forgot and was just :0 when he said Praew
that kiss sucked on several different levels, like Khai’s so incredibly drunk and won’t remember it probably, Third looks so uncomfortable, then Khai talking about how much he loves Praew rip
6-2
T.T rip Third. Him saying “I love you” in his head repeatedly while wishing Khai’s relationship well was </3
Also, I guess this means Khai didn’t see the video confession
Un’s annoying with his threats to expose Two’s crush to Lynn if he doesn’t work for Un blagh
idk what it is but I don’t feel any chemistry or feel giddy seeing Two and Un antagonize each other or be nice to each other.
6-3
I know this is before COVID but Un keeping his mask off and coughing everywhere is alksdfj no
Bro I don’t get why I’m not into Two and Un at all. Un this whole part was doing nice things for Two and if it was another couple I would’ve been so giddy (dying thinking of Cutie Pie NuerSyn having these scenes) but they make me feel nothing at all
6-4
Third finally putting some distance between them
Wait what’s this time jump. So for a week or two or three? we see Khai longing looking at Third who’s pulling away and then apparently Khai’s not been to school for weeks cuz he’s at home?
man Khai’s such a dick!!!! Emotional intelligence and kindness level -100. Shitty plan to make Third get over him by hurting him so bad and thennnn thinking that’ll lead to them going back to being great friends like before??? did Not Me Sean create this plan?
Anyway, deeply, deeply hoping that the character development Khai’s supposed to have is well-written, sensible, and still in-character. I want a Khai who gradually understands his errors and strives to be better and there should be a natural, gradual progression rather than 1) him becoming a very different person or 2) the changes being erratic or nonsensical.
Please!
Episode 7 (June 1)
7-1
lol Khai sitting here imagining what his date with Third would be like. The imaginary Third wanting a Rolex killed me
Khai’s so nervous and cautious around Third
7-2
Bruh, Bone’s a bonehead. Why would Paan use this serious job just to punish him? I don’t hate their storyline but get annoyed sometimes
:0 Third’s auctioning off Khai’s birthday gift? That’d stinggggg if that was me
Me while converting Khai and Un’s bidding prices for Flipped from baht to cahd -> O.O
Is this setting up a little Un interested in Third thing? I saw a clip where Khai saw the two of them hanging out at the mall
Bro, I need Third’s narration again. I got used to it for 6 episodes, so being in Khai position where he’s guessing what Third’s thinking isn’t satisfying enough lol I want to know how he feels about Khai right now and where he is on the In Love In Love In Love to Totally Over Him scale
I haven’t been reading the comments for this show but maybe I should’ve. Just learned the auction scene is a reference to Flipped! That’s cute since they’re betting on Flipped and apparently Flipped also has a POV shift halfway through like this show
7-3
lmfao Un and Bone just having to witness their 2 friends like each other but not at the same time. Interesting that Two’s not supportive of Khai going after Third.
Khai willing to do both Two and Bone’s parts in the project to get to spend time with Third? My guy, how deep have you fallen?
Khai’s nervousness is quite cute >.< Though it did lead to Third thinking he was jerking off in the bathroom lol
7-4
Is Khai the one sending him the extra treats? in front of the rest of the crew? Should’ve at least done like “everyone gets x and y and also Third gets z from a secret admirer” so that it’s not a clear favoritism from the upper people or something
Not Khai’s “o ho, rich, attractive, womanizer, hurts people without remorse, who could it be? does such a person exist?” T.T It’s not even that he fits the characters, he is the character since Third wrote it based on him lol It’s also funny because everyone in the room also knew he fit every single one of those characteristics, including the asshole behaviour.
Aak, not the script reading that mirrors their own relationship
I think Khai’s POV is humorous and also Off plays him so cute/endearingly, I need to reread what I read for the first few episodes because I gotta remember why Third’s not tryna mess with him lol.
Episode 8 (June 2)
8-1
dang Third’s sooo apathetic towards Khai now, rip. idk how you go from liking someone so much that you put up with such bullshit to just... not giving a fuck. I wish we could hear from Third
Dang, would Khai have confessed?
Oof, Un and Third. Third’s so smiley toward Un too rip
8-2
I simply don’t care about Two and Lynn
“I’m here to pick up-” “A girl?” Yeah no wonder Third’s ignoring him since he doesn’t really have reason to believe Khai’s not chasing girls anymore
8-3
Bone and Prof Paan are kinda cute as long as they have minimal scenes sprinkled throughout
Oof, here’s the scene of Khai seeing Un and Third at the mall. At least Third never told Khai he’d be there then ditched, which is what Khai had done.
Bruh, not the pathetic, crying Khai! </3 </3 </3 I wish he wasn’t so selfish that he couldn’t understand the effects of his actions on other people until he felt the same emotions but I’m glad to see some realizatoins and remorse from him.
8-4
If I cared more about Two or UnTwo, Two seeing Un say the same things to Third that he said to Two would’ve been so good! The hurt! But I don’t really care lol
??? O.O Khai you dumbass why are you thinking of and tryna kiss a sleeping Third. He literally was just thinking that kissing Third “drunkenly” was a dick move, so what’s he pulling now?
I knew it was coming but I don’t really like the accident trope, so we’ll see how they handle it I guess
Episode 9 (June 1)
9-1
The Punn or Black vibes here :0 They
Bruh the friends all hacking into Third’s Line T.T y’all are all too much
AND THEN USING THE WRONG GC ABOUT THEIR FINDINGS LKJASDF
It does suck that Third had no reaction to Khai’s apology but a) it’s not a good apology and b) “I won’t hurt you from here on out” is a useless thing to say when within the last day or so, he’s kissed him in his sleep + aided in looking through his Line chats
9-2
Khai’s parents are shitty lol Their complete disinterest in him despite his accident
Khai not putting up a fuss when Un joins them and even trying to lighten the atmosphere because he thinks Third wants to be with Un... this is the type of character development I want to seeeee
Are we gonna get the bathtub scene I’ve encountered so many times lol
9-3
T.T This bathing scene is actually so T.T It’s so soft, so cute, I’m so fond, it’s so tender and domestic
:00 he’s bringing up the sleep kiss before the accident
The bath scene is seriously my favourite in the show thus far
Aww Bone’s prof is getting married and he’s gonna have to edit their wedding stuff </3
What do you mean by the wedding is “Indian theme” I’ll break your knees
9-4
Girl not Khai coming in and next question coincidentally being “Never Have I Ever had a crush on my best friend”
Them both drinking O.O Then Un immediately coming in and sitting on the handle of Third’s chair lol
Third’s facial expressions after Khai talks about him liking cheese flavour
No wayyyyyy “The person Third likes” 3 people at once chiming up with “P’Un” alksdf At least Bone and Two look like they’re thinking “oh what a fucked up situation” though i guess only Bone thinks that and Two is like fucked up over his crush on Un
nooo show me what Praew said right nowww but also I don’t wanna know cuz if she said the truth then rip KhaiThird after Third learns Khai hurt him that much on purpose
P’Shane’s “You can tell me anything, I’m a nosy person” lol
Girl I cannot watch the rest of this lmfao Khai just started beating up Un for making out with a girl? Not to mention he doesn’t even know Praew told Third the truth presumably. I actually can’t make myself watch but also I wanna know aghhh the ending of every episode is just “oh shit oh fuck confrontation/consequence/big reveal” and it’s stressful
no way, I continued watching and Khai calls Third stupid, maybe I really should stop so that I can go to sleep after this
NOT A PUBLIC LOVE CONFESSION FROM KHAI AAKLSFJ
I think episode 9 is my favourite episode so far and includes my favourite scene: the bath
Episode 10 (June 3/4)
Ahh, nervous nervous
10-1
Aak, it’s too public and dramatic, I keep pausing lol
Shane’s “it’s a win-win” is killing me lol, mans lie got Khai and Two heartbroken and Un beat up
Gosh, how would I even feel if I was Third right now? I miss hearing his thoughts from the first half.
“What kind of game are you playing with me now?” Fuuuckkkk okay I guess we know what Third’s thinking/feeling now
“I’ll try to become a better person and wait for the day you like me again” T.T
...how do I feel about Khai basically leading them through a date even though Third didn’t agree to a date
Third dying from how nicely Khai’s treating him... I can’t help be suspicious rip like okay you can be nice on a date but what about in general
>.< Two and Bone teasing themmm
pausing as soon as Khai texts “Should we just tell them we’re a couple” because ?? I wouldn’t have a good reaction to that and I can’t imagine Third having a good reaction to that, they haven’t decided anything, they have a long history, it’s just their first date. They’re not a couple yet!
Okay, I would’ve been more annoyed but “a couple, my ass!” is fine too
noo Third’s “Alright, I’m a loser. I went soft and came with him” is so laskdfj cute to meeee. Can’t win against Khai’s charms rip what a bastard
“But when he first starts dating some, he usually does this” Yeah! I know Third knows it from the first half of the story but I worry that writers will make the characters forget, so I’m glad he hasn’t forgotten
Naurrr the headband that Third kept in his Khai box has its companion on display in Khai’s table because he kept it !! for 3 years !! because it brought Third to him !!
Oh, is this when they kiss? I’ve seen clips and I think they were standing around here
This part was cute but I know some fucked up stuff’s gonna happen later in this episode or the cursed 11th ep agh :< I’ve seen clips of where Third comes in drinking from a bottle and sees Khai kiss a girl and then kisses a guy, who Khai then punches. I don’t want it to happen rip
I’ll watch tomorrow
10-2
Oh yeah, kiss. Much better than their Puppy Honey one.
Why is Khai so pushy for Third’s answer? He can’t be patient for even a little bit?
Not the cute, cute montage >.< Playing footsie, the kiss -> sit ups maneuver I’ve seen clips of
10-3
I don’t care about the Un/Two/Lynn stuff, let’s move along now
Khai texting while on his bike?!?! After his accident?! dumbassery
Pls not the “give me a lift pls” and I guess he’s gonna be seen by Third with Khai having the girl on his bike or smth? dumbassery
10-4
“Who were you talking to?” “No one.” “But I just saw you with someone” *ignores* like bro Khai are you fucking dumb? Just be like I accidentally ran into her bike, so I gave her a ride
Bruh aslkdfj okay I was like 50/50 on whether Bone would get sad ending because his crush is his prof + she’s getting married but omg they’re really going all in on Bone finding the fiance’s photo with another woman + XXX calling the fiance during their meeting + Paan just having watery eyes T.T I hate that Paan, who’s so intelligent and hard working from what we’ve seen thus far is having her soul sucked out because of this man.
Girl no way they’re gonna have Bone and Paan actually kiss right now right?
Sigh, episode 11 up next. We already have the seeds of Third’s distrust in Khai, can’t wait to see how it explodes next episode
One thing I wish happened in this episode is more of a conversation about how they’ll go about this relationship. I wanted Khai and Third to talk about how this is going to be different than Khai’s previous relationships where he just chased a high and broke up once it wore off or whatever, how Third still doesn’t fully trust Khai, what exactly are they even exactly because they never explicitly say whether they’re just trying out dating or are in a relationship.
Episode 11 (June 4)
Ahh, nervous nervous
11-1
The only reason the kiss doesn’t happen is because Paan gets a call? Bone you asshole!
lmfao this episode’s called He’s Just Not That Into You ?
Oh yeah! There’s another scene (beside the one where Third sees Khai kissing someone and thus kisses someone else) that’s iconic and I’m waiting to see: the train station scene. How are there so many angsty scenes in like 2 episodes rip
Naurrr they all promised to go to the beach
Woah Third’s “I came with my friends to wait for my faen” >.< I guess the ep title applies to him too.
lmfao me watching Third climb the stairs and bring the bottle to his lips exactly as I’ve seen in the multiple cliips “Aw shit, here we go again”
11-2
rip Third just yelling at that other dude like hey !! kiss me !! right now !!
“I don’t want to love you anymore. It hurts.” man... fuck
T.T Third yelling and crying and berating himself for trusting Khai T.T followed by the quiet tears when Two brings him home. Similarly the yelling and throwing when Khai first enters but then the quietness and hurt afterward. It’s done so well.
11-3
Dang, so are we gonna get a sad ending for Bone? Makes sense considering Paan is his prof + engaged. Also, I wonder if the ‘forgive Paan’s cheating fiancé’ storyline is to soften us to forgiving Khai for cheating (which... did he actually? He really didn’t seem to have any interest in Ching Ching)
11-4
MOTHERFUCKER THIS TRAIN SCENE T.T dead screaming crying pulling my hair out my gosh
The promise of everybody going (lead by Khai because he’s the one who flakes) but nobody informing Khai that none of them are planning on going... the waiting, waiting, waiting which Khai hardly had to do (even from realizing he likes Third -> dating Third timeline was very short), so it’s like he gets to experience a mini version of Third’s waiting and despite Khai being the one who flakes and gives up easily, he waited... Khai’s insistance on acting natural when Third finally appears... Khai’s “it’s fine, you can tell me if you don’t want me there, I may have flattered myself a bit”... Third just hugging Khai... Khai crying, a great contrast to Third who’s also crying but he cried nearly every episode...
But literally why did Two and Bone at least not tell Khai that they’re not going ?!?!
Along with episode 9, this is my favourite episode. It’s dramatic as most episode 11s are and it’s slightly contrived but the conflicts still weren’t completely out of the left blue (esp the Third being suspicious of Khai getting with another girl) and each part (not including 3 b/c that part was hardly KhaiThird) was just Emotional Damage.
Episode 12 (June 4)
Ahh, nervous nervous
12-1
“When did I get mad at you?” lmfao Third?
Ooh, flirty
I wish they’d have a proper conversation about Khai and the girls he’s dated in the past. He’s gotten around and that means his exes will often make an appearance + him apparently being every single girl’s type means they’ll hit on him, so they should talk about how to maneuver that.
12-2
Khai’s tendency to “I’m going” “I’m really, really going” “For real, I’m going” hoping that Third’s gonna stop him is cute. I do wonder why Third’s giving him kind of a cold shoulder though?
Oh rip he’s afraid they’ll breakup and he’ll up with nothing, not even Khai’s friendship
Ohhh, the line of girls slapping Khai is from here. He’s repentant but then I wonder is he too repentant? I would not have let Faisah slap me after what she did but hmm did Khai ghost her first? Maybe that’s why
I’m gonna kick something, how can there be angst in freaking ep 12?
12-3
“I’m just not sure what you’re doing is love” like... it’s kinda frustrating that Third keeps rejecting Khai despite obviously liking him but I guess Third’s just seen him be the way he has been for too long and it’s all such flashy confessions and repentance
Girl I do not wanna watch a public confession T.T Also, the audience can’t even read what those posters say lol
“I watched as many romantic films as I could to find out what love is. Instead of finding the answer, I found you in each of them.” Arrow to the heart!!!
I know Khai’s saying he learned love isn’t roses and luxurious locations but he’s still confessing again as a huge, grand gesture. Khai’s words are sweet, as always, it’s just that I think these types of things are too grand and embarrassing. Third did it in front of Khai and only Khai, not by holding up a play lol
Like realizing how Third confessed and doing it back to him, keeping the necklace, keeping the freaking headpiece from freshman year, etc are cute and romantic but why in front of everyone T.T
not the Third licking popsickly innuendo lmfao
Why is Two so resistant to Un kissing him. I did not give a fuck about these two this entire show rip
Thought we on a journey to Bone maturing, so why is his introduction to his new love interest kinda sleazy lol
12-4
“Even if the sign shrinks, I don’t~”
I was gonna be like no way, why does Third also seem soooo averse to kissing Khai but then in the end he’s like :) even as he’s whining/moving away, so I guess it’s just... a ~thing~ they do lmfao dubcon-play my love
No like Third literally making a disagreeable noise and then immediate puckering up his lips is hilarious.
Cute ass ending.
lmfao not the post-credit scene because they needed to plug an ad. They had a whole lot of sponsors for this show, glad they at least put the money to good use.
Quite enjoyed it. I think the fact that I knew so many things (like the burrito scene, the crying shower scenes, the girls slapping scene, etc from tiktok) and knew that Khai was a douchebag but would get redeemed made it much easier for me to like. Also, I just like OffGun and that bias also played a part for sure.
Negatives first:
I wish we got to see more of Khai realizing he likes Third (tf was that random confession of liking Third to that random guy in the beach scene). Also, just... some more communication and emotional moments between KhaiThird that isn’t freaking devastating; like perhaps serious, contemplative, vulnerable because they seemed to be either chill and laughing or just absolute devastation.
Also wish episode 12 didn’t have remnants of angst because Third wasn’t accepting Khai’s boyfriend proposal. Either should’ve removed that or should’ve made the final confession not been public, just have had the same confession and actions from Khai but more intimate.
Didn’t care about Two’s plot with Un or Lynn at allll. Was kind of interested in the Bone/Paan thing and I didn’t dislike how it went but it did get a bit boring.
Onto what I liked:
I wasn’t sure how well the characters would be developed and how their change throughout the story would be written but I was pleasantly surprised. I think minus a few hiccups here and there, the characters progressed in a way I enjoyed. It wasn’t too fast or two slow and they worked at it. They were frustrating when they weren’t meant to be and pitiful when the writing called for it.
I liked the movie references even if I didn’t understand any of it lol. I liked how they sprinkled the references throughout and also explained them when needed.
Third and Khai’s acting was good. Gun was skillful in playing Third, tugs at your heartstrings and cries at the drop of a hat. Off was so charming as Khai, I definitely would’ve liked Khai less if he wasn’t played so charmingly.
I liked the story and characters!
Rating: 6.5/10
Theory of Love: Special Episode (June 7)
they’re each other’s sweethearts and it’s KhaiThird and also ThirdKhai, so true
Wait, Khai’s been sleeping on the floor for like 1-2 years? Bruh what? When did they move in together and why didn’t they buy 2 beds or decide to share a bed??
At least they’re having some conversation about how they feel about the past and future
I thought Bone got a gf? What’s all this about him chatting with girls and getting over Paan?
Bruh, are we gonna have another Ching Ching type drama?
...I guess the “Third is so scary when he’s angry” and bossing Khai around when he’s being affection is humourous? I don’t really like it. Edit: Maybe this is actually mostly just in Khai’s head because Third seems a little physically distant but not scary or punishing from this episode.
Aghhh it’s literally just a photo. Idk why Khai didn’t say the truth in the first place that a girl fell on him and also Two and Bone were there to see it happen. Now, they’re worried about just a picture being passed around where he and the girl are just sitting beside each other like what?
“I’m the one to blame for putting myself in this situation” Khai said this about Ching Ching too and it’s just so not true. He’s not to blame that Ching Ching kissed him without asking and in this case he’s not to blame for... what? having a girl sit beside him?
The way Khai seems to lack self-confidence, as well as confidence in their relationship is upsetting. He shouldn’t have to tiptoe around in his own relationship. Bone said Third would understand and I hope he would and then Khai can work to move forward and gain confidence and trust in himself.
Did that guy Khai was telling to delete all the photos call him Hia?
Okayyy Third’s reassuring Khai.
(33mins) Okay the conversation was fine, Third was fine as expected, I’m glad Third explicitly reassured Khai + said he also is trying to meet Khai in the middle.
fuck they’re sooooo cute now that the random ass Khai agonizing thing is over. Them spending time together, teasing e/o and looking out for e/o, them planning on spending their lives together, the proposal T.T
The contrast between Khai clinginess level 100 vs Third being at like lvl 10 is jarring. Didn’t enjoy how... unsure of himself and his relationship Khai seemed in certain parts, I want him to be confident in his place! Enjoyed seeing the parts where Third reassures Khai and where they spend time together.
Rating: 5.5
Tiktoks (I saw so many ToL tiktoks because I joined tiktok to seek out Not Me and OffGun content, so I think these tiktoks really made excited to watch the show)
Ones I liked before watching the show
Theory of Love and Bad Buddy parallel in the auditorium scenes
“Third has disappeared from my life.”
the iconic Third burrito eating scene
10 Things I Hate About You song to Khai (the reasons are the ones given in the song)
Theory of Love and 10 Things I Hate About You Episode 5 Reference/Parallel
Third seeing Khai at the mall with Milk vs Khai seeing Third at the mall with Un to Deja Vu
The Beach Going Train Waiting Scene (I actually didn’t fully watch this tiktok until I finished the show but even before, I knew it was supposed to be iconic and so saved it to come back to later)
Last episode kisses weren’t in the script but they decided on it later
Third being hurt in the first half of the series (song: Ang Wakas, such a good song)
Ones I liked after watching the show

GIANTS OF BL 2021 AKA SHOWS LINED UP FOR GMMTV THAT WE WON’T STOP SCREAMING ABOUT!
Is there a way I can get over the addiction of BLS? Apparently not because GMMTV came and slapped me across the face for ever thinking I could. Like what even was that conference? I came in like yeah I've heard the rumours. 6 BLs! LOL, you're kidding, like nothing I'd want would even happen. But I still made a list of everything I wanted from them and held that checklist in my mind and boy was I shocked! I ended up just on the floor, brain exploded, mind shut down and can you believe I was crying? Like why on earth was I crying for GMMTV BLs? Crazy right? I am absolutely left floored, I'm going to be crying as I write this by the way just so you know, I've got my heart full ready to burst, talking about the change we've seen in BLs this year, the journey, the growth; there's still some work to do, but GMMTV said they were also part of that, they were going to change and make us stay, wanting more. They did that in a 3-hour conference. My brain is ready, my mind is prepared, my heart is available for all these shows, and I can't wait to see what 2021 unfolds. Let's begin screaming:
Ratings: From 1 to 5 (1 being least excited to watch, 5 being most,) how excited am I to delve into these shows?
THE NICE SURPRISES
BAKERY BOYS
Genre/Themes: Thriller, Bromance, Mystery, Psychological, Drama, Friendship, BL? (The manga is), Baking
Verdict: You know I love Antique when immediately I see that Foie's hands shaking as he has to be one of the waiters in the cafe, reminds me back to another favourite bodyguard of mine doing so. I was in shock; One because Antique was one of my first Korean 'BL' movies I saw, with all my favourite actors, an unusual and intriguing plotline and I ate it up; all of it. I didn't like how censored it was and the weird open ending for the relationship in the show. But I couldn't care less, something about it made me happy. I just loved the characters I think, and I enjoyed seeing our 4 bakers become friends and find a weird found family with each other. Add in a mystery to why Joon’s character wanted to kill himself and hated cakes? And I was sold. Now GMMTV is making a remake for it, and SINGTO is playing my favourite gay baker. Like I am so happy with this. Do I expect this to blow my mind? No. Do I expect more BL? A little? I'm not sure like GMMTV could make Antique a BL if they want to, Korea hinted to it, Japan ignored it in anime and others, but Thailand could change that. I'm not holding hopes for it, but I love this cast just as much as I love the Korean Cast like Lee Thanawat is perfect for this role, Singto is greater (I just love him so much) and we even have Pleum and Foei?? Are you kidding me? Greatness. It's going to be fun to see what they do with the mystery—something I greatly liked in the movie. Let's hope it's more fleshed out in the tv show. So excited!
Ratings: 3.5/5 I mean it's not really a BL so it'll feel queer baity for me and I may end up being annoyed it, but I really do have fond memories of the Korean movie, so I want to be excited, and the cast is everything so we'll see.
FISH UPON THE SKY
Genre: Unrequited Love, Comedy, Romance, Rivalry, Haters to Lovers,
Verdict:
DID SOMEONE SAY JITTIRAIN: THEORY OF LOVE? 2GETHER??? Sorry for screaming but like what else am I meant to do. Theory of love is my ultimate BL show, one of it anyway, one of the reasons will be discussed even more later with another show, but this is not about them. Also, 2gether is like one of the biggest BLs ever right now. Jittirain is genius, she has this ability to make you feel for her characters, root for their love stories whilst throwing plot twists everywhere. I also like that she always has a focus; theory of love, we had film theory, 2gether we had music, and now we have Fish Upon the Sky, and we have?
Medicine? Love rivalry? Honestly, I don't know, the title even makes me feel even weird; what the hell does Fish upon a sky mean? But who cares it's a Jittirain classic, comedy, pain, longiiiing, and unrequited love, and scheming to get unrequited loves requited, more side couples and secretive characters. This time we have PHUWIN (had to emphasise that because he's impressive people stop sleeping on him!), one of my favourite youngins, showing up and becoming our main Pi and we have Pond a newbie, who has charisma for days, and he plays Mork, and they are love rivals. Wait what? A love story between two people who fall for each other after chasing after one guy? I'm ready for this, the haters to lovers, the pain of unrequited longing, but hold on it seems like a plot twist! Seems like we have another oblivious protagonist on our hand aside from Tine in 2gether, Pi can't even see that Mork isn't chasing after the same person as him, but for he's chasing after him! Sarawat scheming activated! I'm expecting giggles, chemistry and a great story. And it's going to be great because it's Jittirain.
Ratings: 4.5/5 It's not anything new but do I need to repeat my self? Theory of love pining and longing and emotions mixed with 2gether's secrecy, scheming and obliviousness? It's going to be great. The cast is also excellent, I have total faith in this show, better be a good director though (oh no nightmares from the last half of 2gether has returned).
FINDING ENCHANTE
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Angst, Drama, Friends to Lovers, Haters to Lovers, Harem, Mystery,
Verdicts:
Enchante that means nice to meet you aww. Wow, now I know French. Yay now where do I sign up to be like Theo and have 5 men chasing after me? Actually, that sounds like a nightmare, and I don't have time for that. He does apparently. Guess what guys! I knew I had a feeling in my gut when I watched this drama, I felt the memories, the intuition, the clues, hitting my brain, and I realised why. This show is also written by My gear and your gown's writer. YES! You mean more mystery and subtext filled storytelling, a show where I can analyse the character dynamics, and find clues to piecing the story together??? Perfection. As much as My gear and your gown wasn't everything to me, it was everything to me when I analysed it, I have fun with this writer's works when directed properly her works have great potential to be one of the best. I love GMMTV giving new actors the time to shine, and choosing stories that make my mind start working again. Thank you.
With this show we're having a love Simon flashbacks with our Simon being sent secret messages through a book by Enchante, he's sweet, caring and totally all about making our lead comfortable. Who could he be?
The best friend who's totally pining from afar and playing off his feelings like its nothing? My gut is already saying that Tine definitely wants it to be him (so again requited but they don't know trope? you've got me!)
Is it the playboy guitar extraordinaire played by GAWIN you heard me right GAWIN my Mork in Dark Blue Kiss!! Like what? Where've you been boy? He looks so great in this, by the way, he's a tease, likes to play our lead's feelings, and has chemistry because they're haters to lovers.
Or is it FLUKE PUSIT?? What even is this cast how is it both my favourite actors are here? Anyways Fluke is an artist, he wants our lead to let him in so he can draw him, our lead is his muse apparently, and again chemistry that makes your head hurt because like who is this damn Enchante?? Who will Theo choose?
Anyways we then have two people who I don't know that well sorry, Boom is the football captain that likes our lead and is always protecting him, and the other is a genius/nerd? Who helps Theo with his studies? Like wow, it must be great to be Theo, guys from different lifestyles and aesthetics have found him, they want him, they need him and one of them he wants and needs. I wonder who it is.
Ps people already thinking it's the best friend, not me, I think bestie is obviously endgame Tine is definitely also secretly wanting him to be with that pining and longing (I'm sure it's why he wants to find enchante desperately). I can't wait to see why these two refuse to let each other know how it feels. All I beg for is, please don't let New direct this. Guess what it's produced by X (Theory of Love! Hold on while I cry again) and Film! (Also theory of love!) Oh, this is going to be brilliant!
Ratings: 4.5/5 This drama is probably going to be the most underrated because people have other things to care about I don't blame you, but I think for me, this would be a same favourite way I loved MGYG and I'm ready for new faces, Gawin and Fluke and a requited but they don't know it angsty love story plus I know the directing is going to be amazing!. Ps, I actually hate harems, but the excitement is in figuring out who on earth is Enchante and why this is happening!
THE BIG BOYS
GMMTV decided to not let me rest next year. How is it that I already felt happy by seeing Phuwin, Gawin, Fluke etc... I was content you know, I was like great we have a great line up I'm excited now I don't think there's anything else I secretly want that will happen. I'm being a clown, BUT NO. EVERYTHING I ASKED FOR: EVERYONE I WANTED TO SEE, EVERY TROPE I WANTED, THE DIRECTOR, THE PLOTS, EVERYTHING WAS MANIFESTED BY THESE THREE TRAILERS. That's why I ended up crying. Because even till this day I can't believe this is real. I don't know when I'll finally think they will be real in 2021. Crying again!
NOT ME
Genre: Gang, Mafia, Crime, Romance, Drama, Stolen Identity, Twins, Angst
Not me? Not you? Not us? See how my mind scrambles when it comes to this show. Because I was determined to not be a clown and believe in this even when I saw OFF GUN hold onto each other on the motorbike I was like HA, nope they're just guest stars, when I saw them as gang members I was like HA; interesting probably not BL. When I saw two Guns, I was like HA, nice Gifted character flashback but still not BL. I won't fall for it, this is a BAIT! You get me? BAIT!! Don't fall for it and then GMMTV was like shut up here's a kiss. And then I broke down and cried. Because it was a journey.
Remember when I said Theory of Love was my favourite? It's because of these two; OffGun is everything, my favourite BL couple on screen, my favourite fanservice couple, everything. I thought that the end of theory of love meant I won't be seeing them for a while, they'd be in other series separate, they'd not want to be typecasted. Gun would go for serious roles, Off will choose more het romantic comedies, don't blame them. Still, I didn't think I'd see them again, and I wasn't sure I wanted to see them in another university setting. I set my mind on only seeing them in fan meetings and side projects, I'd made up my mind to miss them. And then NOT ME happened, and now I'm crying just at the thought;
This isn't a cringy, comedic, cheesy BL.
This isn't set in University.
This isn't' unrequited pining from Gun to Off.
Gun is Dark! I repeat Gun went Dark he became a gang leader determined to break the law, called Black and Off; OFF went serious and he's Gun's right-hand man called Sean, and I'm just like wait is this real?? We're getting dark, gritty OFF GUN??? Are you serious?? See?? still can't believe it, and it's BL??? What is this? Christmas?? Like how did we get this, who came up with this idea THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I thought nothing could beat theory of love for me and now OffGun came back and said HA you thought. I have a lot of feels about this, I will never stop screaming, I've rewatched that youtube trailer now for about more than 20 times, I'm not even kidding you, every day it's on repeat, I'm just ready, ready to write, to scream, to talk about this in so much detail. Let's get a plot that's deep, thrilling and mysterious, let's get a romance that is interesting, angsty but also sweet, let's get acting that is full of range, that will break my heart but fix it together again, let's get chemistry that would make me forget everything else. I'm ready for this. I've never been more ready!
Ratings: 5/5 What were you expecting? I can't even rate this anything else, nothing about this is worrying; even the director I trust she's also worked with Gun before in another movie of his, she respects LGBTQ, and she wants to make a great BL. I just can't believe this is real. 2021 come faster, I beg you.
BAD BUDDY
Genre: Forbidden romance, Haters to Lovers, Romance, Comedy, Opposites attract, Angst, Friends to Lovers,
Verdict:
You thought my screaming would be over. But no. GMMTV wasn't done with me yet. It's like it knew I was mourning from my lack of Ohm Pawat after rewatching He's coming to me (review here) and it knew I had just finished watching Gifted Graduation and felt slighted to see my opportunity at seeing Nanon as a BL character being taken from me with that finale. GMMTV knew I was empty without them and decided to mock me, and put me back together by making OHM NANON in a series together,.
Again the same process as Not me; I started laughing when I saw the trailer like a mad person. I was like this is clearly a queer bait bromance, HA, not falling for it GMMTV almost got me this time, but then there were the stares, the Romeo and Juliet energy, the sneaking into each other's rooms, the becoming secret friends despite being haters to lovers, the skinship, the intimacy, and then the jealousy, the pining, the longing, the are we just friends scene??? WAIT, WHAT IS THIS?? Why is AOF directing this (same director of ALL my favourite BLS), what is this GMMTV?
Nanon wouldn't be in a BL we know this, we've been clowns, but we accepted this with defeat, why is he now saying he's doing one because of the cast? THIS IS A BL? NOT BAIT? NOT A TRICK? BY AOF? WHATTTTTTT???? see my mind exploded.
Since then it hasn't still comprehended this. This is insane, do you know how good, how genius, how amazing Nanon and Ohm Pawat is?? Do you see the power this holds? The fact it's directed by Aof who's like one of the best directors ever in GMMTV??? Do you even know what this means? For this GENRE??? Sorry, I have to scream. I still can't believe this! This is something someone would say, and we'd laugh it of as a joke like yeah right, in your dreams, but it's real, and it looks absolutely amazing, is it a university setting YES, so what? This is everything, with haters to lovers but not really, to Romeo and Juliet pining and longing, to the chemistry that takes your breath away. To just Ohm and Nanon in a screen together being in love. Yep, you guessed it my mind is never goanna be whole again after this breakdown. Guess what I'm okay with it.
Ratings: 5/5 OhmNanon, Aof that's it. That's the post.
A TALE OF A THOUSAND STARS
Genre/Themes: Military, Romance, Comedy, Drama, Heart Transplant, Unrequited Love, Fish out of water,
Verdict:
And we come to this big one here. You see it? It screams 2021 show of the year to me, it screams incredible plot and romance to me, it screams unique and exciting BL to me. Guess what? It's also by Aof. Ha. It took me a year to accept this is happening because when the trailer came out, I knew that with this cursed genre that this was too good that there'd probably be some kind of issue with it. But did it matter? No! Because this was real. Earth and Mix were in a BL together, and it looks so amazing, so great, and it's coming in less than 3 months. I'm going to cry. And it means everything; because there's a hint of character dynamics, angst and also haters to lovers. I see the chemistry, the production, the plot, the actors, and I just feel so ready for this show that I have no other words to say except I love it, I love it, I love it!.
Ratings: 5/5 It's taken years, but I'm ready for this, I just want the trailer now, I want the show now, I want 2021 to start now. This is definitely a giant for sure, it's everything, and I can't wait for it.
After screaming at everything; 2021 starting with ATOTS is already a sign, we're in for a great year with so many incredible changes in this genre. GMMTV isn't messing around, with subs in their event to show international fans are no longer forgotten and are heard and respected, with actors that have made their way into my heart and refuse to leave, and I'm just so happy. It may seem so extreme to be this excited for a BL series to be good, but I love this genre, I love seeing what it represents to so many people, I love the interesting storylines, the discussions you can have for days because of it, the tears, angst, and happiness you feel. But most of all I love how BL has brought out writing from me, I'm happy when I analyse this genre, I'm delighted discussing real-life links and conversations derived from it, I'm so glad learning and humbling my self and opening my mind to new things. BL has been a source of excitement, shock and happiness this year. I can't for next year to be even more splendid, and with this line-up, it's going to be even more than that. It's going to break the world. Can't wait.
