But it's not garbage. And a lot of the people watching it aren't Zeenunew fans

When I watched Cutie Pie a few years ago I had no idea who Zee and NuNew even were and I kept watching the series because NuNew's voice hooked me and I liked their chemistry. I thought it was very cute.

I watched TNP because I think it's a better constructed drama, not perfect, but more engaging than Cutie Pie. I spent a lot of time fast forwarding over the scenes with Kuea and his friends in the garage in Cutie Pie but in TNP I haven't fast forwarded at all.

My suggestion to anyone who doesn't like it is that they shouldn't watch it.

Life won't end. Zee and NuNew will continue to be popular and make tons of money for both DMD and themselves in their BL careers, music careers, and business ventures.

There's a difference between Academy Award-winning movies and Asian BL and I appreciate both of them for what they are.

It's looking like there will be at least one special since I don't think they have enough time to include the special chapters in the final episode, but we'll have to see.

Domundi has at least a half dozen pilots out and I'm sure they have separate budgets for them.

People who are actually enjoying the series usually respond the day of and the day after and then the toilet bowl people come in. If I have a housekeeper at home the last thing I want to do is flush other people's poo.

Like any BL I've ever seen it's not perfect but it has a lot going for it and I think it's a whole lot better written than Cutie Pie which I also enjoyed and revisit every once in awhile for another watch.

I actually don't pay attention to studios. If something looks interesting I'll watch it.

That's not slightly. 2000 to 4000 is double the capacity. And I don't know what effect the conflict at the Cambodian border is having.

If Khanin wins the fencing match his father becomes king. Those were always the rules of the contest. The children compete and the father of the one who wins becomes the next king.

That doesn't change whether Khanin stays in Emmaly or goes back to England.

The final episode hasn't aired yet so we don't know what's going to happen in the series. I suspect that Khanin will win the fencing match, especially given that Paytai has just left Ramil who was his only emotional support. Plus at the end of episode 13 his fencing training was going horribly, I assume due to his break up with Paytai.

There is no parallel to the book. In the book the sabotage happened during the fencing match so there was no winner.

Are you talking about another series? Are you on the wrong page? TNP hasn't finished airing yet.

How could you have finished The Next Prince? It hasn't finished airing yet.

I don't know how big the other venues were but I just saw a post on YouTube that said this venue is 4000 seats and sold out as of today.

I'm pretty sure that Khanin is not going to lose or forfeit, but I'm also pretty sure the outcome is not going to be the same as the book since the sabotage happened during the fencing match not this series made archery match. And the match was never finished because of that.

That's why they changed things from the book. I have enough trouble with the king having a redemption plot in the series but it would have been completely untenable if they followed the book.

Both Wasin and the King were much worse human beings in the book than they were in the series.

Wasin had way more reason to hate the king in the book but he also had been poisoning him for years with the bird's nest soup mentioned in the series. The king did not have cancer in the book.

It also brings another layer to Wasin offering Khanin some of the soup which would have made sense in the book but did not in the series.

I enjoyed the series except for the last episode. They went for camp instead of giving our heroes the send off they deserved. All they needed to do was make the final episode 30 minutes longer.

GMMTV is never going to be getting Zee and NuNew. They are very loyal to Aof, even when he makes mistakes. In addition Aof is constantly hiring new talent and a few of them seem to be really promising.

I don't see the two of them doing BL series forever, within a few years my guess is NuNew will exclusively be doing music and Zee will be running his businesses and continuing his modeling career which would be much more successful if he wasn't tied down to Domundi series and events

I just looked up the roster of GMMTV series and I have to say I never even heard of one of them. So they either suck or GMMTV has no budget to promote them.

But you have no chance of having your wish come true either way.

That isn't true. There will never be a series where Zee and NuNew don't wind up together in the end.

And even though they made changes from the book that is the one thing they will not be changing.

I see a lot of criticism of the writers on how the budget was spent and everything else. Quite frankly the book as it was didn't require changing.

It wasn't a matter of allocating more money to writers It was a matter of not changing the plot of the book for the series. All they had to do was write a screenplay following the book and they would have had a better series. I doubt that the writers were the ones who decided to change the plot.

If I had to guess some of the changes surrounded giving more screen time to Jimmy Ohm and NetJJ, because their characters were significantly less present in the book. So if some viewers are upset with the small amount of screen time that they get in the series they really would have been pissed off if the writers followed the book.

Also the redemption plot has ruined the entire ethics of the book. If you do terrible things there should be terrible consequences.

It is very easy to be done with the series. Watch something else. I don't see how the existence of a show that you hate has any effect on you.

Domundi is making big bucks on this series. It's not perfect, but it's watchable if you are a ZNN fan of which there are millions. This show is number one on IQIYI, Netflix, and trending number one in Thailand and a dozen other countries.

I totally support not watching a series you hate but what I don't understand is wishing financial doom on a company and the actors just because you don't like the series.

Scratching my head here. 🤔

Ratings as in viewership. Is also #1 on IQIYI and Netflix. Obviously you can't rate viewership 5 years from now. But I'm sure it will be just as popular as Cutie Pie. Fans love ZNN and there are very few shows in which they have acted.

Point is the show isn't perfect but neither was Cutie Pie, and fans still find it watchable and enjoyable.

There's a lot of nitpicking going on in this group.
