A Lighthearted Watch
This is definitely on the lighter side which is pretty much what you would expect from the trailer. It’s not super deep or dramatic, it leans hard into comedy and doesn’t take itself too seriously but it does make me laugh at times. Its fun to watch when you just want something easygoingThere’s a bunch of different couples and pairings, which I think is a smart move because it gives everyone a chance to find a dynamic they like. Even if one pairing doesn’t stand out to you, chances are there’s another one that will, which makes the show kind of flexible. I’m personally looking forward to seeing PerthSanta, I have seen them alot on my feed lately and their chemistry looks very good from the way they act around eachother in real life, it seems they have gotten closer so I have high hopes for them.
I think the first eight episodes will focus mostly on ForceBook. I have only seen them in Only Friends, they were pretty decent in it but they were not my favorite so I didn’t know what to expect but they actually work really well here. The acting is definitely exaggerated, and sometimes it feels over-the-top but that’s clearly intentional. It’s part of the comedy style and they actually pull it off. Force in particular has these silly expressions that make the scenes funnier lmao and Book is hella cute, his style is very expressive and even though it’s goofy, it doesn’t feel forced, it’s kind of charming, in a way hehe.
From my first impression, it’s not a show I would rave about yet but it’s enjoyable in its own way. You can tell it’s not aiming to be super intense or emotional and that’s fine. It’s like a light watch that you don’t have to think too hard about and it delivers on what it promises: humor and fun.
Note: 1/34. I’ll keep updating this review as it progresses, so the rating might shift depending on how the story and character dynamics evolve.

Your "not" so Cliché story
This series check all the boxes for your Cliché BL school, engineering student, enemy to lover's story.But if you put together a great set of actors to execute the story, you will think otherwise. I love the trio's (Book, Poon,JJ) dynamic, their comedic prowess at its peak, it's not cringey nor too much and also love the sound effects, it adds/complement the act (I dont know why some hate it, Imagine a joke/comedy scene where its so silent😂)
I am just a simple minded blover, I enjoy light story like this not the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious story with lots of twist and turns that will make your head hurts and no longer see the B"Love" part and stress the hell out of you 😅

Series of the year!
I really really love this series so far and I bet I'll love it even more going forward. I really like the dynamics of the characters and how that feeling of young love is portrayed. It's very fun, makes me laugh a lot (especially the friend groups of the main characters) and is exactly what I need after a long week. An amazing romcom that will leave you excited to see the romance bloom as well as what the future holds for the main characters and their friend groups. 10/10 fr if you need something to make you feel butterflies and to make you smile <3 Forcebook really are doing an amazing job bringing novel Arc and Arm to life!Was this review helpful to you?
Heartfelt Campus Tales: Love Stories That Lift the Spirit
Perfect 10 Liners is exactly the kind of series that feels like a warm hug — sweet, gentle, and full of heart. For many people in Thailand, these college romances are more than just stories; they’re a comforting escape from the everyday. GMMTV crafts these soft, feel-good series because they know that life is tough enough, and sometimes, we all just need a place to unwind, laugh, and see love unfold in the simplest, purest ways. The college setting isn’t just a backdrop; it’s a world where friendships blossom, where first loves are intense, and where we feel young and hopeful. It’s no surprise these series draw such a big audience — they give people a chance to relive those precious moments and remind us that sometimes, a little lighthearted romance is exactly what we need.

unserious over the top funny
I knew going in this was going to be a comedy, but this is so over the top and ridiculous. and that kinda makes me love it.this is a HUGE production and it has sooo many gmm actors we are used to. it’s weird seeing so many together. but so far, it’s pretty simple to follow.
to be honest, although I do love the other ships I am mainly here for PerthSanta now and even though this has only just begun I already love them. Santa brings a fun, childlike energy to the mix and he compliments Book so well. I am really excited to see more of their interactions as this progresses.
I will say I do think forcebook are a little old to be playing in a school series. their energy just screams older. especially when book was in the high school outfit in the beginning. however, this series isn’t meant to be earth shattering. it’s meant to be a fun unserious series so I’m willing to suspend belief and pretend they are younger. same goes for junior and mark.
is this over the top? yes. is it ridiculous? yes. do I think it’s gonna be awesome? also yes.
I’m here for the long haul. let’s goooo!

lame, goofy, lighthearted, and funny
let me just start off my saying that i love this sm already 🤣 i'm not fully sure what i was expecting but i'm happy with the outcome. i can't wait to see perthsanta AHHH!!! it's nice having something goofy like this compared to what you get when you watch a heartbreaking bl (tho those r my favs too). this dialogue..the acting..just everything is my favorite 🤣🤣 all around i'm thinking this'll be a really nice drama to enjoy where i'm not crying, shaking, and throwing up lmaooo. book is so cute and somehow masters these roles so well. can they be pretty lame in here? absolutely but it's so lame that it makes it even more funny so give it a try!Was this review helpful to you?
Ending the Year and Starting the Year Perfectly with Perfect 10 Liners
I have been so excited for Perfect 10 Liners since I saw the GMMTV 2024 showcase. I loved all the pairings and characters, so I’m eager to see how their chemistry will unfold as the series progresses. I must admit, though, I was a bit surprised by the 24 episodes length and the fact that it’ll air over six months—talk about a long journey. One main hope is that GMMTV please keep the pacing tight and ensure balanced screen time for all characters.First-year student Arm (Force) joins the exclusive “Perfect 10 Liners” group, led by his mentor, Yeepun (Emi), who assigns him the popular Engineer Cute Boy page to manage. The two clash online when Arm unknowingly posts a forbidden photo of third-year Arc (Force). Unknown to Arm, Arc was charmed by him at first sight, setting the stage for an unexpected connection that grows as they spend more time together. Meanwhile, Gun’s (Santa) chaotic first day at university leads him to Faifa (Junior), who he mistakenly believes is his savior from a mishap. Eventually, he realizes Faifa’s twin, Yotha (Perth), helped him. Due to Gun's fear of the dark, Yotha offers to switch dorm arrangements, creating an unconventional yet supportive friendship. Lastly, Wine (Mark), a new addition to the group, finds himself guided by Faifa instead of his assigned mentor. After ending his relationship with Toey recently, Wine confides in Faifa about his feelings for her older brother, Tor. Faifa, ever helpful, lets Wine practice his approach on him, giving Wine the confidence to pursue Tor eventually.
Honestly, the first thing that came to mind when I started watching was, is this We Are 2.0? The school setting with the boys feels familiar, yet there's a subtle difference this time. I began watching, as expected, from GMMTV, and they started with a flashback, which works well here. I enjoy the simple, easygoing storyline that doesn’t dive too deep, but it’s been a great introduction to each character. The introduction of ArcArm (ForceBook) is straightforward yet effective. I can already sense that something big will happen soon with the enemy-to-lover trope.
I look forward to sharing my thoughts on each episode over the next six months. Let’s enjoy it together, ending this year and starting the next on a high note.
Side Note 1: The JJ and Poon duo is so delightfully chaotic; they had me smiling the whole time in this first episode.

FUNNY , CUTE
Story - Simple story with recognized GMMTV actors . There are so many scenes which were so funny and cute .Visuals - Always great .
Cinematography - Top tier .
Music - Background music is not funny at all but annoying .
Acting - Great cast with super cool acting .
Room for Improvement- This series is same as We Are from GMMTV. They should change same types of school engineering/ medical BL series and try some new story.
Schedule - Schedule for broadcasting of this drama is definitely not good . They should air two episodes per week instead of one episode which will take six months . We have definitely not that much patience .

traditional Thai romcom
Overall: the dynamic in the first arc (first 8 episodes) is not my thing, but overall it's an enjoyable watch. 24 episodes about 45 minutes each. Airing on GMMTV's YouTube channel https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLszepnkojZI7tY-4JZhpydsT6fIpemt3l&si=f7ir8p1MqNiXYXtLContent Warnings: non con touching, non con picture taking/sharing
Watch Suggestions (if you're not a fan of the cold/jerk pursuer trope and if the comedy doesn't work for you)
- watch episode 1
- episode 2: part 1 6:15-7:35, 8:45-11:40, part 2 beginning to 1:30, part 3 2:40-5, part 4 4-end
- episode 3: watch part 1, part 2 watch 6:20-7:10
- episode 4: watch part 1, part 3 start at 3, watch part 4
- episode 5: watch part 3 starting at 2, watch part 4
What I Liked
- I did laugh a few times
- subverted tropes
- easy to understand premise
- nice to see a lot of GMMTV actors
- Pond & Sand breadcrumbs were sweet though some ignoring boundaries at the end of ep 5
- Tay Tawan cameo
- the friend groups
Room For Improvement
- started with the present, then flashback, the flash to the present and then back again the start of episode 3 felt jarring
- has the nonsense 'be a jerk to the person I like' "plan" (though it is nice that the other guy has a bit of a spine and pushes back)
- (neutral) the comedy sound effects didn't make me laugh
- should have aired 2 episodes per week as this will last 6 months

FORCEBOOK FOREVER
I love Perfect 10 Liners so much. Every EP is getting better and better. FORCEBOOK makes me so happy I'm going to cry. The storyline and the cast are all perfect, and FORCEBOOK's chemistry is so good. They never fail to amaze me. Thank you, FORCEBOOK and all cast for the amazing work. I'm excited to wait for Sunday to come.Was this review helpful to you?
I don’t have anything awful to say nor anything spectacular.
Perfect 10 Liners collects 3 stories which heavily focus on Love, university and engineering. Yep. I've watched so many engineering BL shows at this point that could I get a diploma.ForceBook
“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.”
Arc: "You entered my heart."
Arm: " You are in my heart too."
Ме: I need more football.
I enjoyed this story way more than I expected. It was funny (the trio Arm-Po-Sand ), sweet (Poon Mitpakdee), uncomplicated and at times a bit mediocre, but I didn't mind. Christmas is coming - gingerbread cookies and hot chocolate.It has some angst, but not much and most of that angst is caused by our characters. It wasn't a very deep storyline and not a whole lot happens, yet I didn't get bored. It just made me feel really happy.
I enjoyed this story and I can't wait to jump into the next one. I hope it will be just as entertaining...
