Nah, but don't be too emotional, right?
After 12 long weeks, Kat and I officially finished this show today, and I really enjoyed it; I can't lie. Tee and Heng lowkey did their big one and were such a delight to see on screen together. I hope to see them in more acting gigs soon! I would give it a 9 out of 10. Then I am going to say what I liked, what I didn't like, do a little episode review, and lay this baby to rest, and actually on time for once, because go me.
Starting off with the first thing I liked, oh my god, I loved the two of them together. This is the first time I have seen either of them in anything, and oh my god, I actually fell in love with them. They are both so incredibly good-looking and such good actors, especially together; just a phenomenal job all around. Tee really brought to life the "demon" and the red flag aspect; I was so fucking mad watching Lil Jane forgive his dumb ass, so good job to him. Also, Heng, playing the stupid little boy role and getting fooled by his big sexy guy we still don't know the age of, he did such a good job.
Also, special note to Heng's beautiful smile and his stretch marks because, god, let's just say I nutted on screen a couple of times.
SEX SCENES ATE (EVEN IF WE SAW SAFETY SHORTS MOST OF THE TIME).
NEXT UP, and if you asked me a couple of weeks ago, this probably would have been something I strongly disliked, but now I love it: the theme song. HE'S A RED FLAG, BUT HE'S COLORBLIND IF YOU EVEN CARE. I FUCKING LOVE THIS THEME SONG, AND IF THEY DON'T HAVE AN A CAPPELLA VERSION ON SPOTIFY RIGHT NOW, I'M TAKING DOWN DEE HUP HOUSE WITH MY BARE FUCKING HANDS. Run me my money, lil nigga.
Another thing I really liked was the dancing class. Like, I feel like everything came back to that class because that's really what started our show, and I loved every second of that, my lord. Just fantastic. I really loved that parallel, and I thought that, and also all of the rest of their memory things (including when Jane gets his memory slowly back) were phenomenally done and felt very intentional, so I loved it a lot.
Despite the memory loss plot being a trip, I really enjoyed how they helped him get it back; that was actually really cute and kind of made me want to sob violently and shit all over the floor.
Jamie is the cutest kid ever, and I love him with all my heart.
PUT GETS CLAPPED, AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT CHEEKS (THANK GOD THAT NIGGA DIED). Natural selection at that point, because how are you going to assault your best friend? The universe was not letting you get away with that one big dawg, or should I say dead dawg.
RANDOM 5 YEAR TIME SKIP THAT I AM ACTUALLY NOT MAD AT. I think they needed space, maybe not that much space, but that's fine, and I think it helped them get closer and realize they actually need each other.
The ending was pretty mid, but I actually enjoyed it a lot. I loved the wedding part even though it did feel rushed, but that's okay. I liked the dancing scene and the parallels; oh my god, that was just awesome. I do think it should have ended with the kiss because the dad part felt weird, but it also alluded to a special episode, maybe? But also, I don't know what they would do in the special episode, besides fuck, and you know what, hell yeah, I will help them fund it; let's go.
Moving on to what I didn't like, I think most of them are just question plot choices and character writing, but the biggest one that's not either of those IS THE FUCKING AI. OH MY GOD. Like, I know we spent all of our budget making that crappy ass statue of lil Jane, but fuck, can we stop draining all of the ocean, please? Like shit, Thailand is going to stop sinking at this rate with how much damn AI this show used. And like I can excuse it (no I can't), but Jane is supposed to be an "artist," and everything is AI, and the one thing that's not AI is he used the markup tool on fucking photos, like don't piss me off. We could have paid an actual artist instead of the fucking ChatGPT premium we had for damn near a year and a half. I'M SICK. GOOD BYE.
LIL JANE IS THE STUPIDEST MOTHER FUCKER EVER, AND IF I EVER CATCH HIS ASS ON THE STREETS, I'M KICKING HIS ASS IN A DITCH. Like, oh my god. Because of his stupidity, we dragged the story on for so fucking long when we could have had some actual development, but no, BUT NO, WE WANNA SIT HERE, TWEEDLE ALL BALLS, AND DRAW AI ART WHILE OUR MAN PLAYS US LIKE A FUCKING FIDDLEEEEE, I'M DONE WITH YO ASS.
Okay, next up for things I didn't like was their power dynamic. Well, I do say it got better; I think the first couple of episodes, IT WAS BAD. Like, some parts were uncomfortable (the assault scene), bad. And I think they could have laid off a bit more, because once they broke out of the dynamic, it was hard to see Tee has anything else.
Following right after this because I think they are in part related: communication errors. Like, I understand the communication error every now and then, BUT FUCK, IT WAS LIKE EVERY DAMN EPISODE FOR THE FIRST LIKE 10 IT WAS HAPPENING. I'M BEGGING, CAN WE JUST COMMUNICATE AND TELL THE TRUTH, AND NONE OF THE MAIN CONFLICT STUFF WOULD HAVE HAPPENED. GIRL BYE.
I HATE DAN, HE SHOULD HAVE DIED WITH PUT. I think the character writing was too good, and that's why I'm bad, but fucking awful character who does not know when to quit. NIGGA, THAT'S WHY THEY LEFT YOUR ASS TO DIE BITCH. Also, according to my friend, who said according to the author, Dan is not even supposed to be the main antagonist, like that bitch dies earlier in the novel. MEANING DEE HUP IS DOING THIS FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME. LIKE BRUH COME ON NOW. My friend said Dee-Hup needed a different type of conflict in the story, and I agree.
THE MEMORY LOST PLOT WAS BULL SHIT. Nigga we had it for like not even an episode, and then it got faded. GOOD NIGHT, Y'ALL HAVE ME SICK. (I did like how Dan caused that, but I wish the reveal was better). Episode 10 explains the entire scene and plot of when it happened very well: "MARRY? HELLO? Jane was confused too, so that's funny. Jane a little wasted, but you know what? Hell yeah. HENG NOSE CRINKLE I'M SICK, Heng the man you are…jk. HE FLEW THROUGH BITCH, oh my god. God, I knew that was going to happen. I was like why do these lights keep flashing? Oh my god. Nothing can ever go right for them lmao where your seatbelts yall. For once not his fault. Memory loss, there's no way. The entire cast in this bitch, I swear I see puts ghost in the corner fr fr. BYE AMNESIA WE ARE DONE. For once I feel like its actually justified because he flew through that bitch into a cement block. Thats real convenient. PUT IS DEAD, AND JANE DOESN'T KNOW. HEY, YOUR BEST FRIEND IS DEAD. Fuckkkk, I don't gaf about our couple; Jane not knowing Put is dead is tragic as fuck, and that also means he didn't remember their final moments together being an assault. tragic."
The red room, or should I say the "Jane" room. Uh yeah, so we are meant for each other because that room was insane. He does not love you; that is obsession, big bro. That is fucking obsession.
JET IS THE MOST ANNOYING LITTLE NIGGA, AND HE NEEDS TO GO TO THE ORPHANAGE OR SOME SHIT BECAUSE WHY ARE WE CAUSING SO MANY PROBLEMS FOR OUR FAMILY, OR CORRECTION FOR OUR BROTHER.
Episode overview timeeee. Episode 2: "i lowkey take back my first review. I understand what they are doing now lmao. Im playing checkers and they r playing football. On a flight to Thailand rn actually, so that's fun, but oh my god. Great acting all around and this show has me all the way gobsmacked. ALSO HIM BEING 32???? Huh?

Episode 3: " I was gagged the entire time and they r playing games i am not even ready for lmao." Episode 4: "WE ARE NOT OVER HIM, AND I DON'T THINK WE EVER WILL BE. Also, the small window where you could get Big Jane off your back has passed, and now he will never leave you alone. We are fake dating dan and Big jane has come on to us twice...right. I am hella invested though. Also, the dancing class with the two of them has me all the way dead. Wait, I'm so gagged; can't wait for next week, my lord. We r real dating Dan, but we don't love him at all. and just sold our soul to the devil lets go." Episode 5: "WHY IS THE ONLY CLASS WE TAKE DANCE? WE R BUSINESS ADMIN MAJORS, WHY R WE DOING DANCE?"

Episode 7: "GIVE HIM THE SLOPIEST OF TOPIES I SWEAR TO DIDDY." Episode 8: "James Prescott, ah baby. 12 and 32 is a crazy age gap for siblings. Too big to be bad at basketball, both of y'al. Jane pls join them and stop being awkward. Jane's a hustler and gotta get his bag. Jamie with the assist. Heng got be feeling brand new. JANES LIKE FUCK I FUMBLED A BADDIE BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH LOVE IN HIS EVIL EYES. Jane dad lore when. Theory, daddy had an affair and had jamie. Daddy loves jamie more than jane and jane has had to bear the brunt of everything while he was neglected. Whoever did the football/soccer thing is funny, and I hope you get a raise. Some people never change, I fear. They said foreigner but white boy is funnier. JANE THEY ARE KIDS. Daddy neglect Jane hardcore. I KNEW IT. It was going to be something with Jane. Lowkey a shrine of you. I would be so mortified and also weirdly flattered because big daddy still into you. Big daddy sees jane as something he owns more than anything thats our issue. You don't own people you love; you need to understand that. FUCKING ON THE LORE IS CRAZY with the sheet from the statue. EYEBROWS ON FLEEEKKKK. We meant for each other. Hey, what's gonna go wrong in the next episode? Hey at least its not our main couple." Episode 9: "I actually quite enjoy the message of this show, but damn these bitches cant catch a fucking break i swear to god. FUCK JET, DISOWN THAT BITCH AND LET HIM FEND FOR HIMSELF. It is actually such a pride thing oh my god, like why are we letting our man reposess our house? I'm so gagged. Also, where is Jamie? I desperately need him because I love cute kids." Episode 11: "They got the whole class to help him. Jane thats so sweet. I like this lowkey; it's stimulating my memory too. Except the evil is gone and its only love in those eyes. Gaps dancing with his girlfriend after hitting on her for so long. People can say whatever they want but sometimes all you need is to see it and hear it from yourself. God they are so cute. We got 5 years to make up for. Why is he beating his shit like it's a KitchenAid, lmaooo. Technically they just got engaged so fuck." Episode 12: "AI OH MY GOD IM BEGGING. We drained the entire ocean for that shit; I'm so irritated. HEY SO I HOPE A BOMB GOES OFF BC FUCK YALL. We cant be happy. WHAT? HELP IM LOOKING DOWN AND I CAN STILL UNDERSTAND. SEXY AH NIGGA IN THE POOL and bif hane walking like its heavyyyy. PUT THE APPLE DOWN. DAN, WHAT THE HELL. I knew dan was gonna do something crazy because of just bullshit. GLAD HES BRINGING A GUNNNNN. DAN WAS BEHIND THE CAR ACCIDENT. I like the dead flowers that was fun. So Jamie, they are actually engaged. If Big Jane was poor, he would've gotten faded SO fast. Did we ever find out how old big Jane is? Wedding in the house we rich rich. Obsessed with the dancing parallels. I HEAR THE SONG."
God, I am going to miss this show so much. I think I am going to sob my eyes out without my don't be too emotional. I think it has a lot of flaws, but God, I loved it a lot. It is my baby, and I plan to rewatch it, so just watch this shit. Okay bye!
