Thirty Worst BLs of All Time - Most to Least Terrible
-
1. Nitiman
Thai Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Terrible acting and direction, to the point of embarrassment.
Meandering storytelling. Awful.
-
2. Bad Buddy
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
Even the glory that is Ohm cannot save this god-awful turd.
If Nanon is a romantic lead, let alone a butch, gay top, I am the Poop, I mean the Pope. The "plot" is juvenile af and, toward the end, makes little sense.
The praises heaped upon this lame POS by MDLers cements my assessment of it as the second-worst BL ever made.

3. The Love of Siam
Thai Movie - 2007
A truly great show blown to smithereens by its final, hopeless, homophobic 15 minutes.
The most audience-insulting ending of any BL ever made.
-
4. Secret Crush on You
Thai Drama - 2022, 14 episodes
Ugly stereotypes of screaming queen faggots make up half the cast list, with one-quarter gender-nonspecific stereotypes and one-quarter straight characters who are inexplicably hot for the afformentioned first half of the cast.
Cringe city train wreck.
-
5. 'Cause You're My Boy
Thai Drama - 2018, 12 episodes
Bad acting, bad direction, bad writing, zero chemistry, plain faces, and radar dish ears.
-
6. We Best Love: Fighting Mr. 2nd
Taiwanese Drama - 2021, 6 episodes
A botched abortion from start to finish.
Second-worst, nonsensical, bad acid trip, second-season plot/writing, after Love By Chance 2.
-
7. 2 Moons
Thai Drama - 2017, 12 episodes
-
8. He She It
Thai Drama - 2019, 3 episodes
-
9. Love by Chance 2: A Chance to Love
Thai Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
-
10. Tonhon Chonlatee
Thai Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
-
11. 2gether
Thai Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
Two very pretty leads, one of whom can't act to save his life, do not a quality BL make. The one who can't act also didn't bother to learn to play the guitar or sing for his role as a popular...guitar player and singer. The way the director tries to get around that actor-laziness is one of the most cringe things about this show.
I'm not willing to sit through screen-trash just to look at handsome men; I can do that with photographs. So, I didn't.
Everything above applies by a factor of 10 to the sequel.

14. To My Star Season 2: Our Untold Stories
Korean Drama - 2022, 10 episodes
Depressing. Suicide-inducing. Unintelligible. Characters and their actions devoid of comprehensible motivation. Awful.
-
