Got addicted to Can't Buy Me Love (Filipino TV series).

First ~30 or so episodes were good but it's starting to drag now. The ML is good but I don't like the FL that much. I think she doesn't have the range yet to pull off the stoic heroine. I'm more invested with Irene and Snoop (MaThon pairing). I think Maris Racal definitely did a good job with her character.

I would still finish it though because I got hooked into subscribing to IWantTFC to finish the series when I went back home.

A LOOK BACK at Mando and Barry

Oh, Mando! (2020, THE PHILIPPINES)

A love story with more obstacles than a maze. A series full of cheating. I mean a lot of cheaters.

Let's take a moment to remember the cheaters. Mando's mother cheated on his father

with a woman causing a divorce and Mando being abandoned by his mother or at least that's the way he felt.

Then we have Mando's proud gay friend Vince, who learned his oppa boyfriend Kim Bash from Korea was cheating. And he was cheating with Clark who happened to be Barry's boyfriend (both relationships ended)

Barry decided to go on vacation with Mando and his sister Krishna (Mando's girlfriend) to forget Clark. Mando confessed his love for Barry and the two made love. Mando cheating on his girlfriend and Barry (though single) sleeping with his sister's boyfriend.

Okay though there was a lot of cheating the heart of this story was Mando (KOKOY DE SANTOS)and Barry (ALEX DIAZ)two people that were dreaming about one another before meeting (that silly Rapunzel fantastical dream) and felt a special connection the moment they met.

Unfortunately after realizing Barry (who identified as bisexual) had a boyfriend, Mando who suspects his own homosexuality (let's face it he knew he was gay) foolishly decided to date Krishna (BARBIE IMPERIAL) only to find out she is Barry's sister.

Barry was also emotionally unstable having tried to take his life before as well as after his sister learned he had sex with her boyfriend and was to say the least was furious. And he lost his sweet love Mando (albeit temporarily)

This series is available on iWANTTFC as well as their YouTube Channel.

monica watches » sleep with me

summary: harry, an overnight radio DJ who is in a wheelchair, and luna, who suffers from a sleeping condition, navigate their respective disorders and issues from past relationships as they start their romance

details: GL, philippines, 6 episodes, ~20 min each

content warning: ableism

available on: GagaOOLala, iWantTFC

what i liked:

high quality production and amazing performances

great representation of disability

all the characters, even the side ones, are fully fledged and nuanced. this show is actually a great example of how effective visual language and good dialogues can help conveying informations about the characters without falling into exposition dumps that take away from the feeling of immersion in the story. luna’s character development, in particular, is fantastic and the use of colors, lighting and setting to show it is [chef’s kiss]

janine gutierrez (harry) and lovi poe (luna) have a very nice chemistry and the relationship between the two characters feels incredibly natural. instant attraction doesn’t always seem believable to me, but in this case it fully does, maybe because there’s also an initial awkwardness to it that makes it really charming and close to real life: the characters talk over each other, stumble over their words, hesitate over the right thing to say….. it’s a carefully crafted unpolished feeling that makes you forget you’re watching a show   

communication and consent are SO SEXY it’s honestly insane how sexy and hot those are

it features what has become one of my favorite female friendships of all time!!!!

the cinematography is very immersive and atmospheric, you really get to breathe in the night time and inhabit all the different spaces these characters live in, which is also helped by the editing and the framing of each scenes (some of them looks like paintings)

need me the entire soundtrack of this show tbh

what i disliked:

'disliked' is definitely too strong of a word, but this is one of those rare cases where i wish the show was just a little bit longer. around episodes 4 and 5 the pacing feels slightly rushed to me and i would have liked to linger more on the different stages of harry and luna's relationship. i also would have loved to see more of harry's job as a DJ and learn more about why she wanted to become one in the first place

as an italian, seeing spaghetti getting broken in half got kill bill sirens blasting in my head (JOKING IM JOKING) [but also please don't break your damn spaghetti]

notes: a huge thank you to lisa @stickymoonsoul for recommending this to me, i HIGHLY RECOMMEND it too!!!

Miss Universe Pakistan contestant Erica Robin has announced her decision to wear a burkini amidst controversy

During the swimsuit segment of the Miss Universe 2023 preliminary round, Erica Robin, representing Pakistan, made a notable appearance. Instead of the traditional bikini, she confidently wore a burkini on stage. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Official Miss Universe Pakistan (@missuniversepakistan)

A burkini is a type of full-body swimsuit, a fusion of "burka" (a loose garment worn by some Muslim women in public) and "bikini". As reported by NPR, the burkini aligns swimwear with Islamic principles, adhering to the Quran's guidance for women to dress modestly.

In an interview with The National, Erica explained that choosing to wear a burkini was a reflection of her deep respect for her culture. At 24 years old, Erica also holds the distinction of being the first-ever participant from Pakistan in the pageant. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Official Miss Universe Pakistan (@missuniversepakistan)

Speaking with Dyan Castillejo, Erica expressed her pride in representing Pakistan for the first time in the pageant's 71-year history. She emphasized her belief that regardless of one's background, having a purpose in life can lead to achieving great things, not just for oneself but for others as well.

The 72nd Miss Universe competition is scheduled for November 18 in El Salvador. Filipino fans can watch the event live on A2Z Channel 11, Kapamilya Channel, Metro Channel, and iWantTFC. The finals will be streamed at 9AM Philippine time on Sunday, November 19. Additional details about the Miss Universe 2023 Competition are available for further reading. Read the full article

gripping the armrest of a chair rn.

overheard this from a commercial of an upcoming Filipino teleserye-

A: I don't love you!

B: Even if I don't love you, I won't leave you!

• • •

A: We had one rule... never fall in love.

A: And I think I broke the rule first.

A: You made me so happy, B...

A: I hate it that you made me fall in love with you.

anyway the teleserye's title is Unbreak My Heart and it'll be able for streaming via iWantTFC :]

BREAKING NEWS: 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' comes to an abrupt end after Season 5 [#K5NewsFMExclusive]

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA -- The cancellation of the beloved 2015 animated series 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' after Season 5 has taken cartoon fans worldwide by surprise, leaving them perplexed about the fate of the anticipated 6th and 7th seasons. The unexpected revelation came to light in a phone interview conducted by Billboard Magazine News with Ross Bagdasarian Jr., who is a show's executive producer.

'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' first graced television screens in the early mid-May of 2015, with Nickelodeon Asia hosting the world premiere. The Philippines, in particular, witnessed the show's debut through a live streaming simulcast on iWantTV (now known as iWantTFC), marking a cultural touchstone, 5 years before the global Coronavirus Disease-19 (CoViD-19) pandemic struck.

Before captivating audiences in Asia and the United States of America (U.S.A.), the French children's programming block "M6 Kid", took the lead in introducing the mischievous Chipmunks to the viewers in France alone. Airing from late-March 2015 until March 4th, 2023; 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' on M6 Kid covered Seasons 1 through 5, culminating in an unexpected halt to the series.

The heartbreak intensified with Bagdasarian Jr.'s revelation to the Billboard Magazine News that production had ceased the year before, leading to the cancellation of the anticipated 6th and 7th seasons. The news marks the end of an era for the animated sensation, leaving fans grappling with the sudden farewell to the charismatic Seville trios of Alvin, Simon and Theodore.

DWFH-FM 97.7mhz's K5 News FM Dumaguete learns that the untimely end of 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' has left fans and industry insiders alike wondering about the reasons behind this abrupt decision.

The show's popularity transcended borders, with its catchy tunes such as "It's a Magical World", "Busy as a Bee", etc., and endearing characters winning the hearts of audiences globally. The French connection to 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' adds an intriguing layer to its narrative. A kids' show often serves as a cultural ambassador, and M6 Kid played a pivotal role in introducing the Chipmunks to French audiences, setting the stage for the show's international success.

As we bid farewell to the mischievous Seville brother's trio, it's worth noting that the 5th season, now revealed as the final chapter, encapsulates the charm and nostalgia that 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' brought to fans worldwide, and even right here in Central Visayas and Negros Oriental. The French TV series not only entertained but also resonated with audiences of all ages, making it a memorable chapter in the world of animated entertainment.

For now, fans are left with the echoes of those catchy Chipmunk tunes, reminiscing about the adventures that Alvin Seville, Simon Seville and Theodore Seville brought into their lives. The legacy of 'Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks' will undoubtedly endure, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those who danced to their tunes and laughed at their antics.

Haven't seen anyone post about this yet, so:

Oh, Mando! is now officially available for free on YouTube!

I appreciate a show that covers heavy themes, where the queers are messy, and political, and show solidarity, and make mistakes, and still doesn't take itself too seriously.

Plus, nobody thirsts like Mando.

Content warnings: non-graphic discussions and depictions of self-harm and suicide attempts, cheating, internalized homophobia, transphobia

8 shows to get to know me better

thanks for the tag @little-orcs-hurrarrumm !! <33

ABBOTT ELEMENTARY (2021-)

my current fave!! i’ve been seeing it a lot both here and in twitter literally the first months it started airing, but i’ve been busy and all that. binged the whole thing recently, and it deserves a long run! story’s well-written, scenes are very wholesome and fun to watch, and what an amazing ensemble of cast and characters!!

DIRTY LINEN (2023-)

pinoy pride!! tfw when you watch a trailer and you just Know the entire thing’s gonna be good? (and they knew what they were doing with those posters)

i’ve never seen a teleserye i truly love since the killer bride and la vida lena, like, this is the first time i’ve been invested in a filo show so far (there’s just something abt revenge girlboss dramas)

neways, international fans can still watch it thanks to the subtitles in iwanttfc and youtube. but i hope filipinos love and promote it even more.

WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS (2019-)

i thought i would be Normal abt it, now i’m a changed person. a mutual rb’ed a gifset of memo being insane with the “and if one day he doesn’t, well...”, and i was Intrigued so i binged all three seasons in one day.

i have to confess that i finally tuned in because of taika, but i’ve found reasons to stay: nadja, guillermo, matt, harvey, the characters, the silly plot, have i mentioned nadja and guillermo?

YONDERLAND (2013-2016)

ult fave! this show just GETS me!! i wasn’t there when it aired, so i’m not really sure if it’s a hit in the uk or us but i don’t think i would’ve discovered this show if i didn’t watch ghosts. deserved a lot of awards and recognition. just a silly goofy show that i didn’t and wouldn’t want to know what’s happening most of the time, and i love and enjoyed every single bit. society needs more shows like this one but this masterpiece will never be replaced imo

BBC GHOSTS (2019-)

i’m still in denial that this show is ending, but i think it’s their time. i would still definitely watch fillers after fillers as they drag the whole thing, but just like yonderland— that’s not very idiots of them to do so.

nevertheless, it’s a very comforting show! love how they truly understand the characters they write and portray. a found family of a bunch of dead losers, what more could you want!!

THE FLASH (2014-2023)

arguably the first fandom i’ve been kinda active in after my long hiatus from fandoms i think ? (i was more of an observer than a contributor back then)

the first seasons were so good. i miss westallen so much. eobard was so cunty. harrisco were my first attempts in giffing and editing in general. i still love them, but idk if i’m gonna be able to actually finish the show (i stopped after s7)

OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH (2022-)

actually a great show, but no longer one of my faves bc the fandom ruined some things for me sorry. it was fun waiting for ep 7 and 8 to air, but i do wish i was there since the beginning when it was still fun and quiet. neways, i miss the brainrot that possessed me to learn giffing.

GOOD OMENS (2019-)

i was there when this baby was born but didn’t get the chance to be involved until they’re like a toddler. the brainrot was insane when i used up my savings for the funkos, the original books and the script book like !! i miss them so much and i can’t express how excited i am to see them again this summer !!!

Now watching: Sleep With Me.

Again, thanks @alwaysthepessimist for the rec. 😊

Ngl, I did not watch this when it was first released because the app that carries this (iWantTFC) is asking some ridiculous subscription fees while Netflix Australia does not have this series. However, since I have recently subscribed to Gagaoolala, I can now watch it to my heart's content.

Also, this is one of those rare times that I do not need to read the subs to understand what is going on lol 😅😅😅
