Oh My Sexual (2020) Episode 3: Oh My Thirdy!

Oh My Sexual had obviously toned down in Episode 3: Oh My Thirdy! While the documentary-experimental vibes were still evident and the exaggerations were still there, they were noticeably lessened in this episode. This allowed the plot/storyline to take shape, the screenplay to appear more engaging, and the acting to be more relatable. Form should always be harmonized with substance. Too much focus on style as seen in the first two episodes takes away from the message of this series. How anxieties and distresses are magnified during a pandemic was featured in this episode. Zombies might actually be metaphors for the different types of people affected by the pandemic. Thirdy's story was interesting enough and his acting was the most tolerable so far. The changes from one scene to another and the editing were still a bit distracting but they were better than previous episodes. I hope succeeding episodes continue in this track so that by the end of its season, this series will be appreciated for bringing in something different (that's good) in the genre of Filipino (Pinoy) boys' love (BL) series.
