Exactly. But at this point, Than knows who Pheem is and hopefully knows that Pheem would pull a move like this. He married him knowing the "reformed" manipulator he is, so I don't exactly feel too bad for Than either. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, well you got Hoodwinked 🤣

Terrible, horrible, really? Regardless, I agree that they shouldn't have gotten back together. At least not so soon. All we've seen is Pheem wallow in regret and self-pity in the last episode. Then in this one, he tries to leave and face his family by himself, but gets roadblocked by Than. Then, they get back together so easily. No real work was put into it. They could have at least had Pheem anonymously clear Than's name or something

This episode wasn't bad, but I think the reconciliation between Than and Pheem, followed by their marriage, especially considering everything horrible they've been through together and the challenges they still face, was very rushed. Slow down! Given all the terrible, life-altering events they've faced, rushing into marriage seems premature. They should learn from their mistakes, communicate openly, and rebuild their relationship gradually while trying not to fall back into the lies and other bad habits. Besides, we still have Pheem's unstable siblings to deal with, and Than's reputation and career to restore. Again, it just seemed too fast.

We still have one episode left, but atp, that particular scene no longer feels necessary, and I don't understand why it wasn't included in the show. The crew on this project knew we'd most likely want to see it, but omitted it anyway. No logic there, and a total waste 😒

Ya, that's one of the terrible things 🤣

Chet was treated the best out of all of them growing up. It wasn't until recently that he was treated the worst. Although I do agree that it should have been addressed it was the dad who was the true big bad and not Risa. Is it solely because Risa is a woman? That's pretty weak, and I agree they should have explored her cunningness more to make her duplicity and manipulations more believable.

Did you really think Pheem killed him? Daou's one of the MLs. They're not going to kill him off, especially with 2 remaining episodes left. Plus, they made it pretty obvious after Pheem shot him that he wasn't dead with all they're cryptic talk.

That's why I got confused when his motivations deviated. We'll have to go back to episode one a see what he tells Than because I'm lost

I don't know if you watched the promo or the pilot, but from the get-go, this show was always advertised as a rom-com, emphasis on the COM. I definitely see the KinPorsche aesthetic, though. Still, I agree they should have more courage when producing higher-quality, serious/mature BLs to cater to their audiences, especially given the roster of artists they employ. In 2025, with the public demand, not to mention the power, influence, and capital they have, it shouldn't be this difficult to put their big boy pants on and grow up. This show seems great so far, but producing more shows such as Not Me shouldn't be something we're STILL asking for!

I don't know if the series is intentionally about Pheem’s greed to have the hospital for himself, however, every else you said is pretty spot on. In the first couple of episodes while we are getting to know Pheem, his motives and targets for his revenge seemed pretty clear. Yet, as the show progressed, his targets appeared to have deviated, as I too got confused when he began acting like he wanted his father's blessing and approval rather than HIS and Thanavej's downfall.

What happened to becoming the heir just to destroy the hospital? I get using Than to get his revenge and all, but SHOOTING Than to protect the very thing he strove to destroy when we first met Pheem? That made no sense. When did his loyalties shift, and why? Where we gaslit? Or did I just misunderstand that it was really Chet and only Chet he was gunning for the entire time?

Because I distinctly remember Pheem clearly declaring he wanted to take down Chet for his childhood torture and vengeance for his mom, his father for not giving a damn about him all his life, and Thanavej Hospital for being the object that's turned his family into sociopathic, absentee monsters.

Exactly, yet they are trying to make her this master puppet master manipulator who's pulling everyone's strings behind closed doors, and the only reasons keep going her way is because the script says so. Ya right🙄🤣

Honestly, I don’t get the love interests' hype over Do Ha. 4 episodes in, and all we have to judge his character is that he’s boring, drinks himself into amnesia, lacks personality, drifts through scenes like he’s half-asleep, is ALWAYS lost in thought, and overall just feels…flat. Those aren’t exactly the traits you’d expect from someone three hot guys are supposedly fighting over. Even Da’on in Secret Relationships had more spark and better chemistry with his co-stars, which made the whole premise more believable. A pretty face can’t carry a show like this. It can't be the end-all, be-all that structures the supposed plot. The object of everyone’s desire needs to actually be worth fighting for — alluring, intriguing, captivating — and lately we’re getting anything but that. Hopefully, the remaining episodes give Do Ha more depth.

Both shows are great in their own ways, each with unique strengths and weaknesses. They differ completely in plot, aesthetics, tone, themes, and cinematography — so of course, people are going to have their preferences. But seriously, there’s no need to tear one down just to make the other look better. Agree to disagree already. Each show has its own quirks and redeeming qualities that make it stand out. 😑🙄

You guys are killing me with laughter! 🤣 But your commentary is so on point. I want to like this show, but the flaws are getting too big to ignore. They really should’ve showcased Ramil's formidability more often—especially in key moments—rather than just the two times he used his mind-control powers.

The acting feels stiff across the board. Dunk actually looks more like the actor who plays Mekhin rather than Boun, so that casting feels off. And why does Ramil act more like a jealous child who won’t share his favorite babysitter (Punn) than a feared, revered vampire lord? He can have his sweet moments, but they should have done a better job with the balance. He just looks plain weak and immature.

Punn literally helped kill most of Ramil’s clan, yet Ramil doesn’t seem fazed at all. Where’s the anger, the grief, the desire for vengeance -- maybe not against Punn specifically, but still.That should’ve been a major obstacle in their relationship—but instead, he just wants more cuddles and cheek pinches.

I get Ramil doesn't, and never wanted to be the leader, but your clan has been hunted, and need you for a century. He needed to either find a suitable replacement, or wise up and rise to the occasion to PROPERLY defend himself and his vampire kin instead of allowing them to die. With that, I agreed wholeheartedly with Ciar. Weak script and pacing indeed. 😓😔

It's all about how they transfer the most import plot points from the pages to screen and not waste time. 50min, 8 episode should be enough time to tell their stories adequately enough and in a satisfying manner. The execution is crucial so I hope they don't mess around with filler and just stick the flow and beats of the storytelling.

Who do you guys think is gonna die? Who are gonna be the big bads besides the zombies? Who are gonna be the heroes? And who are gonna be the "clickbaits" 😂😝

Speak for yourself. A lot of people were literally just praising the 2-hour long episode, so clearly, people do have time for long eps and love them when done right. We got fed today with a lot of plot progression and character development! If the ep is too long for you, simple pause it and come back later. Not that hard.

Seriously, that's the point and one of the basics rules of TV/film trailers. Don't air one if you don't have a predetermined air date 🫩😑

So Ramil doesn't care that Punn is the one who directly offed Miriah and instead sleeps with him? Ok. Come to think of it, the hunters killed so many of Ramil's family, but he doesn't seem to care that they died, actually were murdered. A heartfelt scene, in earlier episodes, of him grieving their deaths would have made the confrontation between him and Punn much more emotionally impactful.

I enjoyed this episode, but then again, I didn't. I felt that Victor's death was predictable and a bit of a cop-out, even though his death impacts various characters. Veera and Victor better be avenged, I need that FotherMucker "General" to be slowly tortured and castrated to death urgently, as well as all those so-called soldiers who are nothing but subservient, soulless murderers. Trin may be mad and feel betrayed, but that slap was not ok. As usual, people tend to take their frustrations and heartbreak out on those who love them the most, especially when they don't know all the details and apparently, don't care to! What a bummer episode. After Khemjira, my BL weekly watches are getting really depressing. Hopefully, there will be justice next week! The bad guys won a lot this week. They can't be the only victorious party for the finale either! 😡😰😭
