The benchmark for Thai BL dramas

Without any doubt, this is the best Thai BL drama ever made. The cast is fantastic and play against each other wonderfully. There is such chemistry among all of the principals, not just the leads, where the chemistry is almost palpable. The concept is ground breaking: the elements of love, crime, mythology, religion, family and mystery work together like a fine tuned watch! Idol Factory did us all a favor by taking on such a difficult project.

The nuts and bolts of the production are top notch, from the music, to the costumes, to the cinematography, to the special effects, to the scenery. Add that the already mentioned support cast's smooth performances and you have a really great series. Where the casting hits a home run is with the leads. WOW. Babe and Billy.....what a combination! They didn't just entertain us, they drew us into their world. I hope that there is another series waiting for them and us. And soon.

Was this a perfect series? No, of course not. There have been complaints with the pacing sometimes and so called "plot holes", but you have that in any series. I consider them at best minor distractions. My one disappointment was in the ending. It could have been done better. To me it looks rushed and cobbled together. However, that does not diminish the overall quality of the series.

Will I watch it again? Yes. But as much as that, I'd like to see the Inspector round up this crew and solve another crime. Perhaps this could be an ongoing crime/mysticism series. Saddle up Phaya and Tharn and the rest of this police squad and let them make the world safe for all of us.
