This is getting the rating it deserves because its not great but not terrible. I gave 6 because the cushion situation made me literally lol. And the concept was funny/cute, the actors were cute, and the production side was pretty well done. I downgraded from 6.5 because the kiss was abysmal. It would have been better without it at all.

If it doesnt happen in the main series, I'd support a special episode just to see that.

I continue to be amazed by how much I'm enjoying this. There's something that's just working for me. I think the humor is landing correctly, and the drama has the right amount of conflict and resolution. It's not life changing or anything. And I dont crave it all week like Duty First (this one is in my soul) and Nour (and Ash minus the in your face ai). But damn, its so satisfying! Its my feels good BL right now.

This is an unreasonably handsome man! I wish the pic let his golden skin show a bit more.

Yeah, the freaking show is called The Knot. They took the time to explain exactly what that meant. But when it happened it was like no biggie. I really dont understand the writers and editors. They don't seem to understand where to focus their time and what to leave on the editing room floor.

I'm right there. I love the MLs. Their chemistry is so fire. But ugh.

I found the small theater episodes before they were on Gagaoolala, so I was initially watching as the show aired (and they were released). Once they required a sub on YT I didnt watch again until gaga had them. All of that to say, I didnt end up watching in optimal order or integrated! I just binged most of them at once, but admittedly after almost all regular episodes had aired. I think they are numbered to coincide with the episodes, so when I finally rewatch (I honestly need time to settle; it was such an amazing journey) I plan to watch them in tandem (ep1 + st1, etc).

I'm back after ep 4 of Nour just to give a much deserved slow clap. 👏👏👏

He's killing it in Nour. Chef's kiss, sir.

Ok, so he's sooooo good in Nour! Love it!

This one is so good thus far! And I'm saying that after watching A Winter Sun (which is a freaking masterpiece) and while completely immersed in Duty First (where viewers are being treated to top notch acting and screenwriting).

OMG! This is a theory! Although at this point I dont even know who is and isnt a Nour.

Whoa, that publicity shot is fire!

Halfway through this one. Its a cute premise, but so far the acting is a little stiff. I wish the actors and the director had tried to pull more emotion out of this because there's potential here.

No disrespect to OFC, which I really enjoyed, but I am so much more obsessed with this one! Like repeatedly rewatching scenes between episode releases obsessed. Checking the next release date every day when I already know it obsessed. Coming here for crumbs to hold me until the next episode obsessed! Maybe I should rewatch OFC to get me through the week!?

This show has wrecked me. Damn, I should have waited! And I've already rewatched all episodes. And I've rewatched the confession about a million times. 😭

100% I got the message about not dominating your partner with your pheromones in the earlier episodes, and I was fine with that, happy even. But its not just about controlling them. This a universe where pheromones and bonds are used for many different purposes, like, I dont know, protecting your mate from a rogue alpha biting them to force a bond. I want them to show the ills of hardened views on gender and social hierarchy, but I also wanted them to show an alternative universe where pheromones dont mean using your power to dominate, harm and control others.

Thats a man, honey!

I need more pheromone action please! For all reasons, including healing, soothing, seducing, but most definitely for self defense. Every time shit goes down in this one, I think of Hua Yong in ABO Desire mercilessly torching the ass of every single person who dared to even think his man's name. He was a monster! I realize we arent dealing with enigmas here, but the alphas can still throw pheros to handle business. I really do miss that part of omegaverse lore.
