Bad Buddy has just passed 80 million overall views in YouTube. WeTV views unknown, but is likely to be very high as well, since it's been top in WeTV for most if not all the episodes that has aired there.

Remember to watch with a calm and clear mind tonight. I know all of us have been waiting for long, with all sorts of thoughts of how EP 10 will turn out to be.
Let's not expect or think too much. That is how people tend to get disappointed when the story does not turn out the way they thought it will be. Remember that we may have all sorts of theories but in the end, they are just theories and not the reality, unless if one of those matches the actual plot.
I am curious, whether there is a MDL user bias against Thai bl series…• BB is rated at 8.8 (albeit in progress)•…
It's always subjective. For me, I do feel that Chinese and Korean (and Japanese to some extent) series have advantage here as they have a lot more fans and watchers here than Thai series. And by fans, I mean die-hard and very supportive fans that will tend to rate the series very high.
MDL caters to a certain group of watchers, and that's no different here. But don't get me wrong. There are excellent Chinese, Korean and Japanese series out there, and some really deserve the ratings they got (some even underrated). Again, this is also subjective.
But yes, there is a slight bias against BL series, especially Thai BL series. Is it a bad thing? Not really. And the fact that Bad Buddy can get a rating of 8.8 (and potentially higher later), it speaks volumes of just how phenomenal it has been, is, and will be.
One thing I want to say is that, let's not be easily swayed by rumours or whatever things out there. Sometimes, ppl just want to stir things up, for various reasons. But most of those were not done with good intentions towards the actors.
And what I know is that, just as today's OhmNanon's contents show us, is no matter what those ppl tried to stir up, Ohm and Nanon's relationship is always special, and they will always be there for each other.
I won't be surprised that Ohm is aware of those things ppl said about him, and I am sure that Nanon is already there to stand by him, no matter what.
This isn't something new and it happened a lot of times to other popular actors/actresses out there before.
Was there some controversy today? I see ppl here alluding to something but I don’t know exactly what is it.…
I think it's mostly just a rumour, and not substantiated. It's very easy these days for people to come up with theories and rumours without even backing them.
And even if true, it's not right for any of those people to interfere with the actor's private lives. Worse still, as it likely is, that all that are just rumours and totally false.
Just a short mid-week update! EP 5 has reached 10 million total views!

I'm disturbed by what's happened on this page and to this page. It is now completely dominated by the private…
I respectfully disagree. It is normal for people to share their opinions here, be it positive or negative, and as highlighted by others below, it makes this page more welcoming, lively and neither a place where fans and anti-fans war with each other because they like/dislike the series. And MDL should not be a serious discussion page either, where even a little bit of fun cannot happen (of course shouldn't be too much)
I don't get that feeling of people writing lots of messages for the sake of it, and I think you may have misunderstood the person saying that she is on a mission the world of toxic BLs (she may have been just very touched by Bad Buddy and its stereotype breaking nature so far). Don't we want good quality BLs too?
I think what she wanted to say is that, as fans, we have to look for good quality BLs like Bad Buddy and not to continue to want those BLs that are just full of tropes and stereotypes and are poorly made.

EP 10 will be one of the best episodes! With all the OhmNanon contents we have earlier today, it will be even better than EP 9's stellar performance.

I hope GMMTV will make special contents for OhmNanon, just as they did for the five pillars. I am sure they will.
Will post the YouTube links again later as usual!
Those ppl with nonsense posts (especially in twitter) will quickly disappear once the amazing contents from EP 10 - 12 appear in the next few weeks.
