When it comes to you, I want to try.
Sorry this is a 10, nothing can top this as the rom-com gl of 2026. It is one of the most grounded and beautiful series that has come out of gmmtv and it has been delivered by their two powerhouses, Jan and Jingjing.
Let me explain. Have you felt the need for a gl series which showcases intimacy along with nc, where the story makers get that a relationship isn't just a hot makeout on the couch but also involves hot makeout on the couch (and pulling her close by the time). Did you then wish that it had a plot but not too heavy for a romcom, we don't want a thriller. But we want it realistic, atleast slightly so to balance out the fluff. But if it has brought in issues were you unsatisfied with the resolution? And did you also want the side characters to provide comedic relief but also be their own person. And and that the second couple also got their share of the stage.
Did you wish it was delivered with conviction at a great pacing. Not entirely predictable but no cliffhangers (it's not good for the blood pressure) but with delightful surprises.
Well you have it, the perfect shake: Enemies with Benefits.
EWB will deliver all that and more. It will make you believe in love again. It truly shows how love can be empowering, how it makes us strive to be the better version of ourselves but also that we don't always have to be because it is okay to let go. Your other half is there for you.
My only qualm is perhaps that they lied to us, this isn't enemies with benefits. There are benefits of course. In every episode even. Rather this is a story of i fell a little in love with you the first time I saw you, and then a little more when we spoke, and we've been comfortable with each other for sometime now but forgive me, I didn't even realise when I fell in love with you.
And the gl pairing of JanJingjing and KapookCiize have been wrought by the sapphic gods themselves. I hope they are successful in their future endeavours, be it gl or otherwise, but this chemistry has been blessed by some sapphic power unknown to us. They had us enthralled didn't they, I had little idea about Jan and Jingjing, having previously seen few shows with them. I knew about KapookCiize's fire, and they really came in clutch yet again.
This is obviously a product of love and care from a huge team. A lot of work has been put into crafting the perfect scenes and outfits, the multitude of OSTs have been a gift, the script the direction. Everything deserves so much praise. And the finally tie in to Bake Love Feeling? Take my 10 already.
