I started watching Stuck on You and it’s SO GOOD! I absolutely adore trueloveskiss and his optimistic energy despite how much alt.media pushes him away. He’s just so open compared to JM, and not just with his personality. Maybe we’ll have a storyline about their sexualities? Seems like it would make the show too busy, but it’s just so interesting how different their rooms are, and how rainbow Reb is personally, emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. Also, maybe it was because I was eating a delicious vanilla bean macaron while watching episode 2, but I just couldn’t really feel JM’s ex-girlfriend flashbacks. Maybe it’s because so many BLs have girls (even ones who d-worded if you know what I mean) affect their storylines. Like, I love having pan/bi characters but it would be nice to get some truly gay characters (especially with semes) in BLs.

Right? It's such a nice show and it's so good. Honestly... it's the first Pinoy BL that I've watched in a while and genuinely found to be good. I feel bad saying that? But it's been a long time. I feel like the last one I truly enjoyed at all with Pearl and even that wasn't... good most of the time. Stuck On You, so far, is truly good.

I love Reb and his tiny bouncy naiveness, his need to try to be friends and to take care of JM because he wants to make it up to hm...

I love them so much. And JM's ex-GF flashbacks are just amusing to me but that's because, honestly, I'm kinda a bad person?

I full expect her to be dead but watch the show prove me wrong. I don't know!

I look forward to watching this show so much.

Stranger’s Kiss is a new Pinoy BL that is giving me very interesting vibes but also a sadness because I am 100% sure that the my favorite of the two choices for the main character is the wrong one.

Nico is a young, gay man who’s just trying to get by, okay?

First he’s grabbed and made out with by a complete stranger. Then, far too soon, he’s being beaten up for being gay and is rescued by another stranger.

The second is my favorite. His name is Prince and he gives me VERY strong Ae vibes and I love him already. He even basically gives that little ‘I don’t care if you’re gay, I can’t catch it’ speech after he saves Nico from being beaten up.

Buuuut the title of the show is Stranger’s Kiss and he’s only been kissed by one stranger.

But Prince! Prince is adorable! Such Ae vibes! And I do love Ae!

Uh, anyway? Stranger’s Kiss is, so far, one episode and a couple teasers that I haven’t watched and it’s cute. Low budget but they’re trying and there’s a mediocrely choreographed fight scene but at least they did it!

Anyway, give it a try!
