Wandee Goodday (2024)

I love shows like this!

I’ve been trying to find a feel good sweet lovestory with just enough drama and this is perfect for me! it has great casting, good acting and such a sweet and interesting story.

I’ll admit that it’s not a ‘crazy’ story with major plot twists and stuff like that, but personally I don’t really like too much drama cuz it gives me anxiety haha~ so this is actually perfect. I love the chemistry between the main couple, but what shocked me most was how good of a chemistry Oyie and Cher had (I’m usually a sucker for the side couples as long as it’s not a ‘forced’ relationship, so you can imagine I loved them).

all in all I’d say if you enjoy a good story with a lot of sweet talk and good vibes I recommend you watch this. I don’t usually leave a detailed review so just know I’m serious?they are so cute!

turn off your brain so you can enjoy it

I smiled and laugh a lot watching this, really enjoyed! I loved! But it is kinda not so good though, I don't want say it's bad but it's kinda yk. I felt really nice like I needed to watch something like this just enjoy some cliche and stupid content. Watched all episodes in two days so what I have to say first is: as much as I loved and enjoyed each episode this show is not very good or very well done, There are some flaws that cannot be ignored so to me 7.5/10 it's an ok note, some people make this seems worse than it is.

What I loved the most:
- very fun to watch when you need relax and not think about anything
- actors in they 30 years old, love it.
- main couple has good chemistry and funny dinamic
- we have one assexual character!! (despite not having been worked on)
- our boy Yak is a bisexual!
- cute and ridiculous at the same time
- cringe but not the kind that makes you wanna die
- HPV vaccine awareness campaign!!!!!!!

What I didn't like:
- that bizarre parallel edit of the nsfw scene of the second couple mixed with the main couple (ep 6 or 7) what the hell was that? WEIRD!
- Wandee didn't had a trauma development. He was afraid of cross the street, seeing some memories of a woman being hit (?) by a car, we saw theses scenes few times then nobody talks about that. Wandee didn't talked about that, so what's the reason for that???
- A character that nobody cares about is suddenly a bad guy just to slow down Yak, there was no need for Taem to be harassed.
- Bad direction and edition, some characters seems to be off idk
- Didn't talked well enough about assexuality and made seems that it's about don't like sex.
- Dr. Ter. Just hate everything about him, that dude was lacking and was poorly written character

Despite everything I had a great time and would recommend it. I'm in love with Yoryak.

Really entertaining despite the seemingly ridiculous plot

What seemed like a trashy show turned out to be exceptionally enjoyable.

After the first few episodes, the story starts to get a little (…actually extremely) messy. The lines between friendship, FWBs and lovers start getting horrendously blurred.

We could have foreseen all the problems from a mile away – but despite this, the show is actually really entertaining and the male leads have an irresistibly cute relationship.

Everyone around them can tell that Wandee and Yoryak are both whipped for each other, but they refuse to be honest with themselves. Great and Inn’s chemistry made all the difference in what would have otherwise been a trashy, B-grade flick.

Wandee Goodday is enjoyable not because of a compelling storyline or superb acting. It’s the chemistry of Great and Inn that carries the entire series across 12 episodes.

Tldr; I like it. ❤️

First, it has a very good start! The first episodes are really captivating. What I like:

- ofc, the chemistry between the characters
- the sexuality of the characters is clear from the start ?
- the established second pair. Oh my, I really love YeiCher relationship so much.
- finally there is an asexual character in GMM (after the asexual character in Cherry Magic was removed) ??
- discussing about safe sex even if the story is about FWB (including about vaccines)
- Yoryak didn't magically get rid of his trauma, but because he also went to a psychiatrist for therapy.
- discussing marriage equality

Overall I enjoyed the series, only the late episodes started to drag and was boring for me (I skip so many scenes). But it closed with a very beautiful ending, so okay. ❤️

GreatInn is an official cp in GMM now, I'll wait for another series from them then. ❤️

Excited my Expectations

It grabs your attention from episode 1. The plot, in all honesty, is not something so different that you've never watched before, but the execution is what made it stand out and work for me. Its lovable characters, unique sense of humour and even the purple as the show's signature colour are some of the elements that helped it gain its own identity among the other bls.

Is it perfect?

No. As every show, it has its issues. The plot dragged a bit on some parts, some plotlines could have been more developed or built up earlier in the show and not get resolved that fast and I'll admit I have an issue with how one serious incident turned into a joke just for the sake of the plot, but the good traits still outweigh the bad.

As for the acting everyone individually deserves a praise. We got a very capable cast. Great and Inn did an amazing job in their debut bl series with Thor and Fluke being on par with them. Both sets of actors were so good I'd love to see them in another bl as main leads.

Overall, it's a series with a lot of heart. It may frustrate you at some points, but the journey is beautiful. If you like romance that's the story for you. And even if it's not you cup of tea, just for the acting alone it's worth giving it a shot.

Chemistry is Chemistry’ing

Its been a long time since I watched a series with this good genuine chemistry between the actors. Helped by the actors appearing both comfortable with eachother and self-confidence. Both of the main actors delivers their roles to a high level and everything from line delivery to microexpressions are on point. The side character also do a great job in their charcter portrayals, but the story mainly evolves around the mains, Great & Inn.

Thor & Fluke also deserves a shoutout in making their relationships as their characters so obvious and heartfelt even without saying a single word. It is nice to see their particular couple dynamic portrayed in the series.

The series does try to show diversity throughout the episodes with more or less success. I really comend them for their efforts and it is highly apreciated to see the characters as individuals that is believable.

The plot is to me mostly engaging and interesting, and where the plot falls through and doesnt drive the storyline the insane chemistry between Great & Inn covers for it. I have greatly enjoyed watching this series and I kept looking forward to it each and every week. Sad that this is the end, but hoping to see more Great & Inn/ Thor & Fluke series in the future.

Saturdays were good days because of Wandee Goodday

Learning about the show, I wasn’t initially drawn to it because I haven’t followed Great and Inn. I had no expectations starting it but when I did, it became what I looked forward to every week. Although the show’s premise is about one night stands and friends with benefits, I love how it wasn’t overly sexualized. It’s a perfect blend of fluff, conflicts, and social issues. However, I just wished the aspect of trauma was explored but overall, this show gave me good days. I’d give it a high rewatch value too because it’s so comforting and light. Hoping for a special ep or sequel!

GreatInn Chemistry Works, Otherwise Not So Much

This series is a dichotomous BL, bordering on being oxymoronic. Sometimes brilliant then slipping into utter banality. Occasionally poignant but mostly filled with mundane trite tediousness. Sporadic displays of serious adult behaviors but mostly overshadowed with adolescent/pubescence behavioral patterns acting like petulant teenage children instead of adults in a serious sexual relationship. Occasional story lines eliciting tears and then in the next dialogue nothing but endless dribble of cliches and platitudes. In other words, not generally reflecting real life but an idealized sanitized world peppered with a whisper of reality and an occasional homage to authenticity. The best word to describe this series is: puffery. I simply had a hard time relating to this story.

I HAD BUTTERFLIES

This drama is not the best but it was worth watching it , it was funny , and it was really cute , This probably one of recommended quality drama of GMMTV out there so far in my opinion,
The drama is easy to understand , it was light , Super Funny and exciting at the beginning, became funny romantic at the middle part and funny romantic heartfelt the end , although some part s of the drama might not have met my expectations like I thought Yoryaks Trauma is it ? would be put to emphasis in a certain part of the drama like how did it happened , how did he overcome , coz it is a serious thing you know ? I just thought it was rushed on that part because it seems that Yoryak have overcome it during his match at the last part in an instant .. okay I just thought oh maybe because the story wants to imply that Wandee was the reason why Yoryalk overcame the trauma ! so yah
My favorite part of the drama is When Yoryak was missing Dee , when the argu about who's the one who missed the other first . it was so cute and romantic and the kissing at the necklace part , it took all the gay out of me , like If I were Doctor Wandee, it would probably be like that , watching the two of them really gave me a good vibes .
I was so surprised that P'Yei and Cher got married ! I was also rooting for the two of them here , they are so cute and just so soothing in the eyes .. I really hope they would have their own series , and tell me about Cher , he was so pretty !
All in all it was good , it was worth my time , it was happy , I did expected more about it but the result and ending was okay , it was not bad ,, It was so refreshing to see Great to accept BL and have a role like this , Yoryak was a baby and is sensitive and Inn was like a mother to him .. so cute very very good match GMMTV I hope to see them again soon !

I need either a second season or a special episode because that ending was questionable

I actually liked the whole concept of Wandee Goodday, I remember when it was released as one of the new Up & Above shows and when I saw the trailer I felt that this show would be the bomb, but over time I started to lose interest in the show rather than being so excited for the new episode each Saturday. I will say that spoilers are coming up.
*SPOILERS*
I liked how the show started with Dr. Dee suddenly having Yoryak as his patient because his normal doctor was not available to get his shoulder looked at because he hurt it while being a professional boxer. Then after that Dee goes on a “date” with his 8 year long crush Dr. Ter and confessed to him, but his response is that he’s too vanilla for him so of course Dee was offended and got totally drunk, but saw his patient from earlier that day walking on the street which was Yoryak and suddenly fell for him and followed him all the way to the convenience store and in the store Dee did so many things such as twerking, flirting, putting a sign on him that says delicious and even made Yoryak buy a _____ because he wants to have it with him. After that one night stand they had started meeting each other constantly to the point that Dee needed help from Yoryak and it was to made Dr. Ter jealous of him so Yoryak would be his fake boyfriend for four months (mainly for Dee getting his scholarship and Yoryak winning the world championship) and try to make him jealous by giving Dee Yoryak’s special necklace and flowers each day, but Yoryak and Dee decided to be fan with benefits. Slowly over the four month period they Dee started to have feelings for Yoryak, but Yoryak has a crush on a girl named Taemrak who helps him with his university work and wanted Dee’s advice to impress her, but it didn’t seem that she liked him at all instead she seemed like she liked her schools president Ohm because she’d always go home with Ohm after being with Yoryak, after that Yoryak started to develop feelings for Dee and Dee had an event at the hospital that you can bring a plus one and at first Ter offered it to Dee, but he refused and asked Yoryak on the day of the event Yoryak has to leave because Taem is in trouble because I guess Ohm wanted to talk to her in his car my guess is that he wants to date her, but she had Yoryak beat him up and the cops take him so when it was the couple dance that someone could win Dee was just standing alone, but at the last minute Yoryak came and they won. That night they became a loving couple and in the end they both succeeded with their plan Yoryak won the championship from getting the support to defeat his trauma with Dee’s help and Dr. Dee winning his scholarship to study aboard for a long time, but Dee now wants to put the relationship on hold because he will be gone for several years.
I want to talk about my favorite couple Oyei and Cher, they have to be one unexpected couple and one of the best chemistry’s I’ve seen in recent bls. Although they didn’t have much screen time they still slayed the time they had on the show. I swear I love fluke (Cher) so much he’s so funny and I would say very girly pop and I love it so much! I haven’t been much of a thor fan (Oyei), but he won me over now because his chemistry with Fluke was on top. I loved whenever they pecked each other’s cheeks and whenever Oyei would carry Cher because he’s so tiny they are so cute and I was so upset when their steamy scene was so short while Dee and Yoryak have a whole 10 minutes. I also loved when Oyei told Cher the truth about why he’s been acted weird and distant from Cher because he’s stressed about the money for the gym after COVID. I also loved when Oyei didn’t have enough money to buy Cher an engagement ring so it was an air ring and Cher was okay, and they actually got married I was screaming so much when they got married I actually wanted to be at their wedding.
I do feel that the guest at the wedding was a little weird with having Ter, PlaKao, and his boyfriend Blue their because I don’t even think that Cher and Oyei even talked to them I feel it would be understandable if it was Dee and Yoryak’s wedding, but I don’t know if it’s just me being weird or others feel the same. I also agree with those people that say that Ter and Taemrak don’t deserve a happy ending, because all they did was make the plot more complicated and made me start to dislike this show.
I do recommend this show because the chemistry is on top.
