Perfect 10 Liners Part 2 Thoughts (so far)

Okay so confession time, I know ALOT of you really enjoyed the ArcArm storyline and I was told that this could be the show to get me to be all in on ForceBook (I have specific thoughts about this CP, but that’s for another time) but I’m sorry to say that I could not get into their storyline AT ALL. I don’t know what it was but I just couldn’t force (😉) myself to sit through it so I did skip 99% of their storyline to get to the one I was excited about which is YothaGun, so here’s my thoughts after watching the first 3 eps of their story.

EPS 9-10: Already i'm enjoying PS and it's only been 2 eps. They’re serving me exactly what I’m hungry for. I’ve seen some complaints that Gun is on the childish side? But personally I think thats just how his character is, kinda innocent and naive to the world? I currently don't have a problem with it (the only thought I have is in regards to their gmmtv 2025 show cos he becomes like a 7yo again and I worry if he's gonna get typecast into always playing this type of slightly silly role? Although that's one of the shows I'm actually more excited for so we shall see in probs 2026?27? when it airs lol). Anyways, my main want is for them to give us more of his darkness trauma, I really liked the scene where he was afraid and crying in bed and Yotha came in and comforted him but that was before Yotha was properly interested in him so I would like to see a similar scene again where he comforts him but it's after acknowledging his feelings for him. LOVE the tie tying and that Yotha is determined to be close to Gun without letting Gun know how much he enjoys it. Also the PJ’s are a nice touch. Oh and how did I forget, but wtf Santa is like SUUUPER ripped? Mental.

EP 11: Still loving this couple (proved by the fact I couldn’t even wait a day to watch this after it dropped) but why did this ep feel a bit filler-y? or maybe that was just me? I love that they are showing a softer side of Yotha with Gun, and the whole sitting next to him in the cafe all night was SO sweet - also the fact that Fai said “I'm just the dog sitter, your owner is here now?!” 🫠 Do we think Yotha told asked Fai to go find Gun cos he knew the electric had gone out? Ugh. Now, don't hate me but sadly I don't really care about Fai and what'shisname? so skipped that and felt they had quite a few scenes in this ep. Also all the drama kinda started 20 seconds before the end, so that's a bit annoying (It'd be fine if they dropped 2 episodes a week but c'mon we got to wait a whole week now, boo!

TLDR; loving it so far, give me more angst pretty pls <3

idk when I'll be able to watch 10 perfect liners are the episodes going to be about each couple's stories individually? like if i'm only interested in one of the couples do i need to watch the whole thing? TT

hello, anon!!!!

im pretty sure we're gonna get a batch of 8 episodes for each pairing's story, so even if some of the characters are gonna show up in all of them, i don't think you're gonna have to watch the entire show to get closure for the couple you're interested in!!!!

just to make it less confusing, im gonna share a small part from the first episode, which is not really a spoiler considering it was in the trailer as well, but still. just to be safe, SPOILER FOR THE FIRST EPISODE OF PERFECT 10 LINERS AHEAD!!!!!!!!

basically the series starts with wine, mark's character, getting into the perfect 10 liners group. at this point both arcarm (forcebook) and yothagun (perthsanta) are already in a relationship, and as wine asks arcarm how they got together, the story goes back to show us how it happened. im pretty sure at the end of episode 8 or the start of episode 9 we're gonna be briefly back in present time just to have wine also asks how yothagun got together and open up their part of the story. after this is done, we're gonna stay in the present for good and watch faifawine's (juniormark) relationship unfold

so like. based on which pairing you are interested in, i think they could have some small moments in the other storylines too, but if, let's say, you're interested only in juniormark, then you could probably watch the first four minutes of episode 1 and then jump straight to their part

i can keep you updated if this turns out to indeed be the pattern, if you want!!!!

2024 Watchlist Wrapped

Dropped

My Love Mix-up (ep. 4) - as each episode aired, it became increasingly clear that GMMTV has lost the plot with Gem4th. I don't think they realized that Gem4th can be more than TinnGun.

Wandee Goodday (ep. 1) - nothing was really wrong here, I just got distracted in the middle of the episode and learned from cultural osmosis that nothing happened in the show that would have looped me back in.

Completed

My StandIn - watched purely off of hype, was not disappointed but was definitely confused at times.

Summer Night (JewelTan Cut) - because I only paid attention when Ryu and Java were on the screen...together, I'm sure I missed a lot. Though, given who their new partners are in the 2025 lineup of BLs, I think it's for the best GMMTV didn't continue on with them.

Century of Love - cute but there were many issues that could have been fixed. Offroad's improved acting, excellent lewks, and some of the more daring scenes (like with Road dressed as the kitsune) made it worth the watch.

4Minutes - Bas is really fucking good. Like I believed he was Korn at times. Fuaiz is a straight up star. While he's clearly doesn't have the lighter touch of say, Bas or Jes, he's still got a whole lot of career ahead of him, which means even more improvement. I thought the plot was cool but the best part was the execution. I could do a whole Good and Bad of on this one.

Lovesick 2024 - Progress has a very bright career ahead of him if he continues on as an actor. This is not to say that the other boys weren't good, but Progress really did outact, outperform, outsell. I will give credit to the other boys though, especially NJ, Krit, and Almond who all had standout scenes that showed me some serious potential for dramatic acting. Almond is already the king of pining and he's just a kid. Baby Toto was just charismatic the entire time (plus his singing voice is undeniably one of the best in the industry). For the rest of the mains, I know it must have been difficult to embody these characters who have been in the cultural zeitgeist almost as long as some of them have been alive, but I have hope that these actors will get the coaching they need to continue to nurture their talent (if they choose to continue with acting). I could do a Good and Bad of on this one as well.

Now Playing

Perfect 10Liners (YothaGun Cut) - So far, I'm loving the lore behind Gun's character. The way ep 9 (ep 1 of YothaGun's story) ended gave me soooo much hope for PerthSanta moving forward. The only questionable thing is Santa's acting here. But I still want to see where they take Gun.

The Heart Killers - So far, this show is a hot mess and has GMMTV written all over it. Just when I think the story is getting interesting, they hit us with some bullshit. The most interesting couple for me is whatever tf is going on with PepperJJ's characters? Like THAT is intriguing, especially given that the twins NEVER really do BL characters.

ThamePo: Heart That Skips A Beat - The budget on this one is INSANE. Like...not even for a GMMTV production but for a Thai BL production period. It's up there with the likes of BOC productions in terms of how much money they're putting into this. It's generally nice to look at, has lived-in set pieces, and the audio!!! It's a huge step up from what we usually get. Plus, WilliamEst are giving EarthMix vibes so far. I can't wait to see where the story goes.

Conclusion

All in all 2024 has been a very mid year for BLs for me. If anyone has any suggestions of other BLs to watched that were released in 2024, let me know! I think I might watch Love in the Big City before the year is over.
