Interminable

When Great Visuals Can't Save a Weak Script

The acting, cinematography, cast, and overall production are absolutely stunning. The costumes, set designs, and attention to detail really capture the beauty of the period setting, making every scene visually impressive. BillyBabe also delivered strong performances, which was one of the main reasons I decided to watch this series in the first place. I'm also a huge fan of historical and period dramas, so I had high expectations.

Unfortunately, the story itself was the biggest disappointment.

The narrative constantly jumps back and forth between different timelines, but instead of building suspense or adding depth, it just makes the plot feel confusing and disconnected. Rather than creating mystery, it often feels like the story is going in circles.

What frustrated me the most was Kaewta's character arc. It feels like he spends almost four entire episodes doing nothing but being confused. There is very little meaningful progression, and the same emotional beats are repeated over and over again. Many scenes are essentially recycled—the only difference is that one version is shown in full while another is shortened or presented from a slightly different perspective. Instead of adding new information, these repeated scenes make the pacing feel unnecessarily slow.

There were so many opportunities to develop the characters, deepen the relationships, or move the plot forward, but the script chose to linger on repetitive moments instead. As a result, the story feels flat despite having such an interesting premise.

It honestly hurts to say this because I genuinely love BillyBabe and wanted this series to succeed. The production quality is excellent, and everyone involved clearly put in a lot of effort. However, beautiful visuals and talented actors can only carry a drama so far. For me, the script and storytelling simply don't do justice to the cast or the incredible production value. The concept had so much potential, but the execution left me disappointed.

I really like BillyBabe as actors and I’ve enjoyed their previous series, which is why I had hopes for this one too 🌸

I’m still a bit unsure about how I feel overall. I tend to struggle with stories that mix past and present timelines, and that made it harder for me to fully connect.

That said, I’m looking forward to seeing what future projects they take on and hope those will suit them even better 💖

A Slow Death

I honestly feel cheated.

After watching The Sign back 2024, I was blown away. When they announced a new BillyBabe project. I was buzzing. It was around the end of September 2024 and thinking wow, that's too long, how will I wait?

Thankfully time stops for no one and when the pilot was released early 2025, I thought, YES!! Give me that angst, tear my heart out with the aching and tragedy.

😂

If you haven't watched it while reading this. It's nothing like that.

We are back and forth back and forth, ghost fight in the middle, and then a quick unravelling of the past. With the most lukewarm ending I have ever experienced. Not even anger. Just ok, that's it. Sure.

What feels like nothing for the first few episodes, people standing around talking instead of showing us,some CGI and then it's all laid out with repeated scenes to fill in the gaps. Quick death. Quick resolve. 3rd life teaser. End

I'm genuinely disappointed in the production.

Billybabe, the costumes and the sets, all beautiful. Everything else was hacked to death

The scenes I was most looking forward to were first life Kaewta's death ( see, dramatic b!tch) and it was so anticlimactic that I winced physically. I was left to believe his killer beat him from the tree, and left him to die for DAYs in Thai heat.
No. He took a smack to the head, watched his rescuer come towards him and die. Within hours. I mean, it's a death I guess, but not I wanted 😂

Then there was a whole real life conspiracy that just stopped. None of those people were involved in Kaewta's death so why were there?

Kun Yai just died. No explanation, nothing from the monk. He just went with a tear and a wimper and Saen followed him off screen.

Also, Granny Yam was the most unnecessary character. What's was her point? She was just there randomly and dies off screen, twice.

As we move to life three, I honestly had no idea what was happening. Other than they would have to have died in order to reincarnate but I'm left wondering if Yai did.

The timelines don't seem realistic either. There's 30 years between life 1 and 2. What happened to mum. How old was she when she had Kaewta?

I'm sure the special ep would have told us something, but so they spent so much time in the first half doing nothing that they then had to chop whatever they planned and rush the ending. Where was Saen, Sophee, the needless brother and the maid. Just forgotten.

I really do love BillyBabe and I wish them all the love and luck in the future, including a better production team.

Good acting, wasted potential

As a BillyBabe fan I was really excited for this and I really loved their acting in it, I thought babe especially had improved a lot since the sign. But I was really disappointed with how they told the story. They had a good director who could have told a great story but the script was really lacking. I’m not sure why they kept all the best and most interesting scenes until the very last episode and rush through all of them… I wish they had started the story in chronological order it would have been much more interesting. It’s just disappointing because I feel like they had everything they needed but just fell short.

Also terrible make up choices for the main characters. Why do the male characters have bright red lips and prominent eye makeup in a historical time? It really pulled me out of the immersion

Butterflies.... butterflies

The visuals are clear and nice.....music is on point.....acting is perfect

Now to the gossiping*laughing*

A bit confusing in the first episode yet the confusion leads to suspense and curiosity....
It's like story telling from a book with the pictures moving... really nice

The storyline is filled with lots of emotions but very satisfying ones .....the show is not a bore at all it's really sweet and calming yet spicy and cold.


Few things made my jaw drop...
The beauty of kaew
The booooooty of kaew
The boombhaya
The handsome Khun Yai
The love they have for each other

In satisfied with the show and I will watch again... highly recommend to those who love sweet and sour flavour*laughing*

“When Love Refuses to Die: My Thoughts on Interminable”

started this series with a smile on my face, but by the end of each episode, I was overwhelmed with emotions. Imagine what life must have been like for two men in love during the early 1900s—around 1910. I’ve seen a lot of reviews where people complain that this story “should have been set in the modern era,” but they miss the deeper message the series is trying to convey.
Kaewta and Yai Samoe Jairat are lovers from that era. Even after decades, Yai’s soul remains in that house, waiting for his beloved—because he never got to see him before he took his last breath. The pain and torment of such a mind are intense; it can even trap a spirit driven by determination.
This series is incredibly compelling. It’s more than just a love story—it speaks volumes about longing, destiny, and the enduring power of love.
