1. Sotus
Thai Drama - 2016, 15 episodes
First Thai series I ever watched in 2018 and I still love it. Everything was just right, Krist/Singto really are the top BL couple in my opinion the story was paced just right and the other couples and characters were also very very good. I always compare ever other series (rightly or wrongly) to this, my fav ever show!!!

2. Love by Chance
Thai Drama - 2018, 14 episodes
First time I watched this I didn't have any expectations but I was really surprised by it. Pete/Ae were absolutely brilliant together there chemistry and journey was played out wonderfully. Tin/Can were also really compelling (except for there finale hopefully resolved in S2), but this was a great and memorable series.

3. 2 Moons 2
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
Although I loved the original show ( I also gave that 10/10) this was even better, all 3 couples are great and there stories are well told. Wayo/Phana, Ming/Kit, Beam/Forth are all well cast and performances are top notch. My favs are Ming/Kit and episode 9 with them was absolutely amazing, maybe my top ep ever in any series.

4. Addicted
Chinese Drama - 2016, 15 episodes
First BL or even Asian series I ever watched and still one of my best. Gu Hai/Bai Luo Yin are excellent together and really make this show work, more serious than other shows (especially some Thai shows) but it's all the better for it. It is just a shame that we'll not see it completed because of the goverments ban, but this is still an excellent drama that any BL fan should watch.

5. HIStory2: Right or Wrong
Taiwanese Special - 2018, 8 episodes
My top pick from the very strong Taiwanese HIStory series. I'm just romantic I guess because this story got to me, both leads were just so damn nice together. I couldn't care less about the age gap 'cause as a couple they clicked and by the finale I was overjoyed and happy with there story. I have watched this show over & over many times, I really really loved this one.

6. He's Coming to Me
Thai Drama - 2019, 8 episodes
When I watched this first time i wasn't expecting much, I thought the premise sounded weird, but my god as it went along I fell in love with it. Ohm & Singto were a really good match for each other and I really believed in Ohm's emotions and longing for Singto at the end. The story, although strange, was great and indeed compelling matched by very good performances.

7. Make It Right 2
Thai Drama - 2017, 14 episodes
Although Tee/Fuse were the main couple and I did like them they really did take 2nd place here to the phenominal Book/Frame. There story had real depth and their relationship felt more grown up and serious and because of that hugely compelling for me. Book's suicidal story was sad and made Frame (played by the amazing Ohm) into an even greater character because of his response, and their story continues to a really satisfying and sweet conclusion. Yes there are a couple of minor issues- Fuse's story and his awkward kiss scene's, but this is a series that I do love.

8. Manner of Death
Thai Drama - 2020, 14 episodes
Superb mature gay/BL series with 2 outstanding performances by possibly the best BL couples in Max/Tul. Story was excellent and fast paced with lots of enjoyaly exciting moments .
-
9. HIStory2: Crossing the Line
Taiwanese Special - 2018, 8 episodes
Another strong effort from the HIStory series here. Aside from a slightly rushed feeling finale this is a really great show. Despite only 8 eps the development of the characters is one of the real strong points here, all of the characters go on a real journey of discovery, Fandy (Hsia Yu Hao) was my fav and has one of the sweetest scene's ever when he is laying down watching Qiu Zi Xuan sleep.

10. Dark Blue Kiss
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
The 1st series Kiss was OK, the 2nd series Kiss Me Again was excellent but this took it to another level again. Pete/Kao (Tay & New) proved again that they are one of the best BL couples in the genre. Starting with the amazing intro, I thought I was watching an American soap opera, it's catchy dramatic and fits the series brilliantly, the 2nd couple Mork/Sun were equally great and everything just works very well.
