Bad Buddy is a MUST WATCH!!
This series is a must watch!!! So far everything about the series is so good and the chemistry between Ohm and Nanon is excellent. After watching episode 5, It's safe to say that is definitely my favorite BL of the year, it's might even become my favorite Thai BL of all time. I'm a big fan of Ohm and Nanon so I thought I might be a bit biased towards the show, but after seeing everyone's positives reactions, I know I'm not overreacting by saying this show is very good. If the series continues to be as good as it has been especially after the seeing the mind- blowing episode 5, I will be so happy. If you're reading this I definitely think you should give this series a chance and watch it.Was this review helpful to you?
Masterpiece bl for me
I don't know why but this series is so special for me. I've watched many BLs but this just feels different. The acting is so good that actors convey emotions through their eyes. I've never watched ongoing series but this series is only exception. But the waiting for new episode is killing me. This bl is already getting and gonna get so much recognition, mark my words. Cliche plots can be done without any cringe this series proved it. Kudos! to amazing cast, director and team. It made me feel all kind if emotions from humour to heartbreak. Its filled with many cute scenes.Was this review helpful to you?

I LOVE IT!
I have been waiting for this series for so long ever since the first trailer was dropped last year. Ohm and Nanon are leads, the story is interesting and it made me very intrigued, and on top of that, P'Aof is the director. It's impossible for me not to like it. I tend to be very picky on the shows I watch and I have actually lost interest in Thai BL dramas when a surge of mediocre dramas started to take over the past years. One day, when I was scrolling on YouTube, GMMTV2021 livestream was on my recommended videos, and I was curious of what kind of series they have to offer. Coincidentally, when I opened the stream, Bad Buddy was next to be shown. The first trailer was playing on the screen and I really didn't think much of it. I thought it was another series about school, mystery, detective of some sort, like Blacklist and The Gifted, which is the forte of Nanon and well, he was definitely the main character. The cast was also kind of familiar, there were Nanon, Ohm, Drake, Love, and all of those other gmmtv actors whom I have seen in other dramas before. BUT, as the trailer gets to the middle I was like... "Is this actually a BL?!?" I was shocked, it never crossed my mind that the trailer playing in front of me was actually a BL series. The trailer comes to an end and the main cast walked on the stage and I was zoning out, haha. I was not expecting Nanon to act in a BL series this year, but I am not complaining, I like it already. I've known Nanon for a while and it's a given that he is a GREAT Actor. Everybody knows that, especially if they have watched most of his shows. I can even say that he belongs in the top 3 best actors in gmmtv. For Ohm, I have only seen two of his works, which is He is Coming to Me, which is also directed by P'Aof (It's amazing, really) and Blacklist. I can say that he can act, as well. The pairing of the both of them made everyone shookt, no one saw it coming. I just know that they are very good friends for years, as they are part of gmmtv's 2000 line with Chimon. While both Ohm and Nanon can act, they never overshadowed the other. They have AMAZING chemistry and the director thought that there was no need to built it further because it is already natural for the two. Ohm as Pat and Nanon as Pran... them playing these roles are perfect! Even P'Aof thinks that they are the only people who can be Pat and Pran ever since the beginning. It is still on its 5th episode but it's going really great. The people who are watching can't wait another week for the next episode. The plot and build up is exciting and captivating that you are being pulled to the story of Pat and Pran as every episode is released. The OST plays a huge part in the series and it is sung by Nanon. Just Friend? (the title) is a great song and it's been on repeat ever since it was released. When one talks about this series, you must not skip the details. It's the DETAILS that gives you all the feels. The amazing acting and the details, you can't help but say... wow. I have waited for so long for this series to air and the wait was worth it. The cast, director, staff, everyone behind this amazing series, kudos to you all. It's been so long since I felt so giddy over a Thai series but THIS IS IT. It's definitely in the top of my favorite series of all time, even if it's still on its 5th episode. I may have rated its rewatch value as 9 stars but it's only because I can't stand Pat's friends at times and also those fight scenes that I tend to skip when rewatching. However, it is still great overall. In conclusion, I love Bad Buddy so much.Was this review helpful to you?
Everything about the drama
From episode 1, this drama is really addictive to me. I just love the actors and the story line. P'aof really did a great job with the direction. He casted ohm and nanon, two great actors for this series. Though it was nanon's first bl, he really did a great job in portraying pran. Same goes to ohm, who is a wonderful actor. Especially episode 5 part 4 was really great. The passion with which both of them kissed on the rooftop made me really root for them to be together. I hope this series will progress in an amazing manner and i wish this series is a hit. Can't wait for episode 6!!!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Best series ever!
First time to get hooked on a BL series. Didn’t expect this one to be really good. Both Ohm and Nanon are delivering excellently in terms of their acting skills; since their eyes can actually tell a lot even without any words. Other supporting characters are also bringing life to the story of both Pat and Pran. Cinematography is really good and the music fits the storyline as well. Can’t wait to see more of them in the next weeks. Never been this excited in any series since Addicted. Highly recommended!Was this review helpful to you?
The plot is the typical Romeo and Juliet type of thing, were both the male leads family absolutely hate each other and they force the two male leads to compete with each other all their life.
At the moment this is my favourite BL of the year.
The chemistry between the male leads is amazing and it has that cute aspect to it that’s just so cute to watch.
One male leads is outgoing and a bit flirty with the other male lead. While the other male lead is shy and secretly in love with the other male lead.
It’s just so cute. I’m your a fan of a cute, but funny BL drama, with attractive male leads , I would definitely recommend this to watch

Highly recommend!
We are only at episode 5 and I already fell in love with this show. I didn't know what to expect at the beginning, but Bad Buddy surprised me in a good way. Nanon and Ohm are both great actors and it shows. They portray Pat and Pran so good, sometimes it doesn't even feel like they're acting. They have a fantastic chemistry. I hope we see them both together in another series (doesn't have to be bl) again. All I can say is that Bad Buddy already belongs to my favourite Thai Bls and it's not even finished yet.So overall 9.5 out of 10 because there are still 7 episodes left:)

Brilliant
I have recently just started watching BL's. This is the one of the best. Acting is brilliant and chemistry bety the actores is great. Just completed 5 episodes and I am eagerly waiting for the coming episodes. Hope so that coming episodes are not going to disappoint. Just wish that story moves at a bit faster pace else this is a great series. Must Watch for all the fans of the the actors of the series.Why the hell I have to write a story of 500 words to submit the review. It's prepsterous as we r nt here to post the whole story line just to write what's gud and what's not.

Marvelous acting and chemistry
I am so loving this series, and the more episodes i watch the better it gets. Even though i don't usually care about an actor's acting skills if the plot of the story is good and actors are good looking, Bad Buddy compelled me to specially notice Nanon's superb acting. Even though there are many shows where actors perfectly display most accurate emotions, in this series from my perspective Nanon's acting and every expressions tells a story of its own. Ohm's acting is also spectacular and i really like the theme of both male leads being so energetic and hunks bcz i am really tired of watching one of the male leads being a flower boy, or a damsel in distress in most of the BL series. The chemistry between them is similarly just out of the world, and watching the flirt with each other naturally even though not intentionally really makes it even more perfect. The plot is pretty good even though not being the best, with only a very few annoying situations till now. If the rest of the episodes remain consistently good like the episodes aired till now, and the story doesn't fuck up mid way, it can become a series with a popularity rivaling TharnType and 2gether.Was this review helpful to you?
A nice watch
Bad Buddy is a nice watch, especially if you dont like to think too much and like mild, fluffy, funny BLs. This series is special to me due to the fact that this was the first BL that I watched where the actors didn't look like they wanted to puke because they were acting in a BL. They had great chemistry, the scenes weren't abrupt, the dialogues were not banal - in short, everything about this production was great!It was also nice to watch BLs where the uke/seme distinctions were blurred. I generally like a drama where the characters are in a balanced relationship, so having an absence of charaters where one was trying too hard, and the other far too stingy was like a fresh breath of air.
The friends were also very funny, and in general complementing to the entire setting, which only added to my delight.
Its a great watch and i totally recommend watching this to anyone who just wants to have a good time :)

My favorite series
I watched it when it first and out but no matter how Many times I rewatch It is still amazing. I think Ohm and Nanons Acting skills are incredible and I think that they show the characters personalities really well and overall the story and the acting is just phenomenal!!The way they both compete to see who will fall in love first even though they both already know they like each other is so funny and played out so well, you can really tell they both love each other a lot and as they get closer but others still don’t except them they always have each others backs <3
