Feels like a summer dream

That Summer is a mix of a light and unpretentious script, beautiful cinematography that manages to capture the island's beauty exceptionally well, and a couple with great chemistry and fluid development.

I didn't expect this series to be so good, and it was a great surprise. The story manages to balance well without becoming repetitive or too childish.

It's not a profound script, but the direction and photography really elevate the series to a level where everything becomes poetic and like a summer dream.

The secondary couple, despite their rapid development, works very well. However, the entire plot involving the coup in Arantha is absurdly poorly developed.

In addition, the final conflict, besides being rushed, is very cliché. Again, GMM-TV resorts to the same pattern of series finales with a time jump and a forced wedding.

However, this doesn't spoil the greatness of this series. It's an easy series to watch and has so many interesting moments that you simply fall in love with it.

A great success and without a doubt, one of the best cinematographies that gmm-tv has ever delivered in a BL.

It's good but could be great if GMM-TV had some nerve

It's excellent to see Great and Sarin in a series that truly showcases their talents. Memoir of Rati is a series that truly deserves more recognition. It's a very interesting story but unfortunately something is missing.

I love the chemistry between Great and Sarin and they're excellent actors, but the characters are very shallow here.

For a story with the depth and impact of a romance between two men from different nations in an era where such a relationship would be scandalous, to say the least, the script never manages to create the tension or the feeling of a forbidden romance.

The characters lack personality; they're there but they barely add any impact to the plot. They begin and end the series the same way. Rati could be a spoiled and arrogant boy sent to Siam as punishment by his father. Thee could be a man full of charm and dreams that conflict with his image and what his grandmother wants him to be.

But what we have here is a very subtle romance, a very peaceful narrative and characters who simply accept their status quo. Thee has an interesting arc and I like the conflict between him and his grandmother but there's no interesting development there.

The supporting couple works well and while they don't have any big moments, it's great to see Aou and Boom get more screen time and decent development.

It's a fun series, it's light, it has great moments but it lacks emotion. It's all very dull and I miss a greater depth. It lacks conflicts that take the characters out of their comfort zones, it lacks more elaborate cinematography that captures the beauty built there, it lacks courageous direction that can bring out more expressive performances that embody emotion.

Rati's departure for France and his return five years later is an example of this. This should be an impactful and moving scene but it's so boring and predictable with weak dialogue that doesn't convey any feeling.

And I'm really tired of GMM-TV's pattern of adding time jumps at the end of its series and its lack of courage to tackle more serious topics or create more impactful stories.

It's certainly much better and superior to Wandee Goodday and is far from being a bad series but unfortunately, it's a series that borders on forgettable and lackluster.

More mature than I expected

I had no intention of watching this series. The plot, the poster, everything gave me an extremely childish idea and I already expected that this series would be another low-budget production with a terrible script.

And it was a huge surprise to realize that this series is actually very good. The production is really interesting and has beautiful photography. The story, despite the plot holes, is captivating. And the actors are excellent and have great comic timing.

It is a simple story, but very well executed. The highlight here is Junior. At times he seems like an animation come to life. He is an expressive, funny actor who managed to do very well in the more dramatic scenes.

The story could be better. There are many arcs that are abandoned or that could be better worked on. Nam's bullying, Junior's brother, Sun's past, the aunt's son who died.

At times the story gets too stuck within its own narrative and doesn't expand these arcs into other paths. The secondary couple, without a doubt, is one of the biggest disappointments. They just tease, but they don't get anywhere with them.

The final conflict is a bit messy and the direction and editing really struggle to create a cohesive scene. They leave a lot of points open - the fate of the animal traffickers and why Sun took so long to return.

It's not the best Thai BL of 2024, but it's undoubtedly a competent and dedicated production that delivers a different story with a cast that exudes chemistry.

To My Star (Taekwondo Version)

Hwang Da Seul is undoubtedly one of the best directors of BL series. And here is yet another proof of her competence and talent in creating such captivating stories with impeccable production, acting and cinematography.

However, I feel that this is a series that ends up repeating many of the arcs and narratives used in To My Star (also directed by her). It is the story of a witty, lively man who refuses to succumb to his problems and ends up moving in with a serious, bad-tempered and cold man. Little by little, he manages to break down the walls of this cold man and they fall in love. Until this man disappears without much explanation and years later they meet again because the cheerful man never forgot or stopped loving the cold man who begins to treat him in an indifferent and cruel way.

And that is where the problem lies. I feel like the first 3 episodes are perfect and contain such a unique and well-constructed narrative about two abandoned, lonely, and pain-filled boys who build a friendship and love that can withstand the pain and give hope about a better future.

That's the best part of the series. But they decide to do a 12-year time jump and the reason why it happens is the worst possible. I would understand if Ju Yeong had killed DoHoe's father and spent that time in prison. Or if they had met in college and the story focused on DoHoe trying to get into college and having to maintain a lie so that Ju Yeong wouldn't feel guilty.

But the story of their adult life is so weak and even boring. The dialogues are excellent, the acting is very good, but all this drama and DoHoe's distant and cruel behavior simply hurts the narrative much more.

I understand that the series tries to create this more complex, adult and conflict-filled plot, but the reality is that none of these conflicts really work. The whole issue of DoHoe forging his diploma or the problem with his mother who mistreated her son has little impact on the story.

The ending fixes a lot of things and manages to bring a resolution that warms the heart. But the series is too confined in the same space, repeating the same fights and this ends up greatly impacting what could be one of the best BL series of 2024.

It's an excellent series and gives a show in the technical aspects, but I really wish they had kept and explored the story of these characters' adolescence. The formula for a perfect story was all there.

Tecnicamente excelente, mas um tanto arrastada

Algo que não pode ser negado é a imensa qualidade que esse BL tem. A cinematografia é impecável, a trilha sonora é perfeita, as atuações são excelentes e a direção realmente consegue trazer esse toque de delicadeza, timidez e o despertar de uma relação cheia de desentendimentos e sentimentos não ditos.

O problema é que esse BL acabou sendo lançado alguns meses depois de I Became the Main Role of a BL Drama, outro BL japonês que foi lançado no final do ano passado e que tem literalmente o mesmo plot. É a mesma história de um ator tímido e retraído que nunca teve sucesso e precisa fazer um BL com um ator famoso que ele teve contato no passado e que é secretamente apaixonado por ele.

E o problema é que o ritmo flui muito melhor lá do que aqui. Os dois maiores problemas que eu tive aqui foram o Yuki, um personagem um tanto sem graça e entediante e a forma como o roteiro decidiu enrolar até o último episódio para que os personagens finalmente conversassem.

E isso infelizmente acaba afetando muito o ritmo da série a ponto da narrativa se tornar repetitiva em alguns momentos.

Entretanto, não deixa de ser um BL incrível e muito bem produzido. Apenas faltou coragem e criatividade em criar um desenvolvimento mais ousado e diferente para os personagens.

Excelente química, péssimo roteiro

Love in The Air é uma série muito gostosa e fácil de assistir. Ela tem uma trama chiclete (pra não dizer clichê) e personagens fáceis de entender. A química entre os atores é incrível e provavelmente uma das melhores coisas aqui.

Entretanto eu continuo não gostando de nada que venha da MAME. E apesar de ser mais sútil, todas as problemáticas das outras obras dela continuam aqui. Rain e Sky são os "passivos" da relação e a construção desses personagens é a típica construção de uma personagem feminina estereotipada. Eles são geniosos, imprudentes, atrevidos e no final dos seus arcos precisam ser salvos de um grupo de homens que tentam (ou ameaçam) estuprar eles.

Já os "ativos" são apresentados como dominantes, perigosos, ricos e homens bem sucedidos que sempre conseguem o que querem. O fato de ambos trabalharem para a máfia em NADA tem relevância na história e só é apresentado ali pra criar esse ar de periculosidade nos personagens.

A trama não se aprofunda em nada e a decisão de dividir os casais em dois arcos é um erro. O problema é que o primeiro arco é mais leve e sensual, com um romance rápido e quando o segundo arco chega, a impressão é que a série pisa no freio e repete as mesmas interações do primeiro arco.

Eu gosto muito do tempo que eles levam para desenvolver o Sky e os traumas dele. Mas ambos os finais são desnecessários. Eles criam um vilão aleatório para ameaçar o Rain e a volta do ex do Sky é algo que não me agrada em nada.

Não é uma série ruim, longe disso, mas tampouco é uma obra prima como dizem. As atuações são bem medianas, a direção não tem estilo e a história é uma tanto rasa e simples. Ela funciona por repetir a mesma fórmula das outras séries da autora e por ter atores que entregam ótimas cenas de intimidade.

Could be amazing but it's to lazy and mediocre for it

It's impressive how GMM-TV can take a promising story, great actors (some, not all) and a creative director, and still deliver a disappointing and lukewarm result.

To be fair, this isn't the worst series they've released in 2024 (one of their worst years in my opinion) nor is it a bad series.

But it's a series that wastes so much of its potential in repetitive scenes, incomplete arcs and a lack of courage in telling an original and bold plot.

I don't understand why they would create a story about hitmens and be afraid to explore this narrative. Films like The Wanted, Assassin Babes, and even Mr. and Mrs. Smith (I know they're spies but it's a dynamic that would work very well with Bison and Fadel trying to kill Kant and Style after discovering their betrayal) manage to bring comedy, action and a lighter tone to this violent narrative.

But here, Bison and Fadel's profession is simply a detail. At no point does the series attempt to explore the nature of their work - all we have are cut-up and overly censored scenes that never manage to create the atmosphere that a story about assassins requires.

There is no world-building, the character of Mother and the corporation they "work for", as well as the services they perform, are mere extras in the narrative.

Until episode 7 - one of the best of the series - all we have are the same arcs. Bison and Kant flirting and having the same conversation about relationships, sex and more sex. And Fadel and Style in a game of cat and mouse.

What bothers me is how shallow the series is and every time a deeper moment arises, they immediately crack a joke and ruin the moment.

It's the support group for people in mourning that Fadel attends. It's Bison's desire to get out of this life. It's the murder of their parents. It's the discovery of Kant and Style's betrayal.

All of this could carry more dramatic weight and deepen the narrative. But these moments last for minutes and in the next scene everything goes back to comedy.

The relationships here don't work for me. Bison is not even remotely the hot-headed and out-of-control character they describe. Kant and Babe have zero chemistry as brothers - even Babe is a character who only exists as a crutch to justify Kant's actions, even that bullying and teacher plot is completely disposable. There is nothing authentic about Bison and Fadel's murder scenes - and it's embarrassing how stupid the scene is where they try to kill the man who killed their parents at a crowded event with a gun and dressed in a giant bear costume.

And how forget about the amount of stupid decisions the characters make?! They could poison the man's drink, but they decide to shoot him. The police set up an ambush but there's no police officer at the front door to stop them from running away. Kant knew they were murderers and what was his first move? Involving his best friend and introducing his house, work and brother to Bison.

Another point in the script that tires me is the inability of the scripts to create connections that are not completely random. This is the case of Babe's bullying that only appears so Kant can talk about his past. It's the couple that Fadel and Style meet who have a problem with cheating that will talk exactly about what they are going through. It's a random character who appears to talk about Bison's family. It's the random attack at the bowling alley to show that Kant really likes Bison. It's all so shallow, without nuance, without construction, it's simply thrown there without the slightest connection or meaning just because the script needs these connection points that honestly could be really good work but are wasted.

If the technical part was still good it would be overlooked. But the direction doesn't stand out, the performances are good and Dunk is actually a little better here than his usual terrible performance. But that's it.

The photography is absurdly ugly. I haven't seen a high-budget series with such crappy photography since Pit Baby. The lighting is bad, the colors are faded and muddy. And the sound!!!! It's scary how bad the sound work is in this series. The noisy, the interference and external sounds, one could swear this series is a college project.

There is a huge lack of tension, the action and fight scenes are absurdly amateurish. Nothing has any consequences, it's all sugarcoated. They try to give importance to the death of Fadel and Bison's parents and all the series does is show a picture of them. The same happens with their relationship with their Mother. It's clear from the first scene that she is the villain and this whole "revelation" is predictable.

The only time we really see them acting like hitmen is at the end and even then they act much more like spies and young people seeking revenge than professional killers.

All of this, added to this canned American aesthetic, the soundtrack and costumes that are beyond caricature and a script that doesn't have the balls to get out of this cliché, results in a series that's kinda fun to watch but extremely disappointing. It's boring, it's predictable, it's lazy and has no personality whatsoever.

Roteiro vazio e uma história fraca

é uma série de personagens cativantes, a química do Force e Book é incrível e no geral é uma série leve e bobinha, mas o maior problema para mim é a falta de história.

os personagens são extremamente rasos, não há evolução ou construção do romance entre eles, o casal secundário está ali apenas de enfeite e a trama joga inúmeras questões que possuem ZERO impacto na narrativa.

a série começa mostrando o Gun como esse cara mau humorado, frio e rude, mas logo no primeiro ep. ele já está de joelhos pelo Cher e é isso. não existe construção do relacionamento deles ou desenvolvimento e isso torna a série entediante.

Cher inclusive é um personagem que eu adoro, mas que é tão caricato, tão bobo que soa absurdamente infantil e irrealista em muitos momentos.

o que temos é uma série que parece um compilado de cenas que não se adicionam. é toda a briga do Gun com o Time, os problemas com o Thup, o roubo do jogo, a mãe do Gun interferir na relação deles, a depressão do Jack, a morte da Thian. tudo isso é jogado na série, discutido em uma cena e logo em seguida esquecido.

inclusive a série perde muito quando decide jogar um plot que Thian se suicidou por ter engravidado do pai após anos sendo estuprada. é algo tão pesado, tão sinistro e eles só jogam isso e no episódio seguinte essa trama sequer é lembrada.

é uma série fofa, mas extremamente mau construída e rasa. e nem adianta inventar desculpas porque Our Dating Sim e Our Dinning Table são duas séries fofas que estão ai e tem uma construção impecável.

infelizmente não foi dessa vez que o Force e Book receberam uma série decente..

This show is just a excuse to show Joss shirtless

Maybe it's a bit of a pickle on my part, since I love vampire stories, but the lack of creativity and originality from whoever wrote, adapted and directed this series is noticeable.

The Golden Blood is unfortunately a generic, poorly produced and extremely repetitive series. The narrative had great potential and it's true that the main couple has excellent chemistry but nothing here works.

It's a fun and easy-to-watch series but it's also a series with an obvious script that follows the same old paths. The performances are mostly pretty bad - I believe due to the script and direction - and at no point does it manage to create that sense of danger, suspense and sensuality that they try so hard to evoke with the countless scenes of Mark in his underwear, which is one of the best aspects of this series.

The photography is, without a doubt, one of the worst parts here. It looks like the series was recorded on a iPhone Pocket in 2019 and they forgot how to colorize the images. Everything is bland, lifeless, with overexposed lighting and a really boring shoots.

There is nothing vampiric about the narrative. If you change the word "vampire" to "immortal being" the story is the same.

None of the symbols and mythologies seen in vampire stories appear here. They don't burn when walking in the sun - they even go to the beach in swim trunks -, they don't sleep in a coffin, they don't need an invitation to enter a house, they are not repelled with crucifixes, garlic or holy water. Silver or a wooden stake through the heart are not even mentioned.

The situation is so critical that you can count on the fingers of one hand how many scenes there are of a vampire drinking blood from a human's neck.

Nothing, absolutely nothing here is suitable for a vampire story. What we have are undefined characters who spend the episodes doing the same thing - Thara grumbling about a danger that doesn't exist and talking about protecting the golden blood; Tonkla being forgettable and Nakan repeating the same lines in every episode and doing nothing manacing.

The whole final revelation just destroys the entire narrative. If Nakan wanted to defeat Thara, why didn't he kill Tong when he kidnapped him? If Thara needs the power of the Golden Blood to destroy other vampires and she's already captured several others in the past, why does she need more? All of this just makes this Golden Blood nonsense ridiculous. In the end, the blood isn't that powerful if she's already taken it before and still need more all the time. And why does she want to defeat other vampires? The series doesn't even talk about other vampires or any conflicts between them.

The ending is pure embarrassment and it seems like they simply gave up trying. It's Nakan dying for "his special someone" that we never even saw. It's Tong giving in and then crying for Thara to free him. It's Thara repeating the same speech about wanting to defeat vampires that we never saw. It's the terrible CGI and fight scenes. It's the fact that these are the weakest and easiest vampires to kill that I've ever seen. It's the serum with the golden blood. It's Tong becoming a vampire at the end and NOTHING changing in his life.

One of the few good things here are the kissing scenes and Tonkla's death, which is really moving.

But it lacks all the magic and enchantment that vampire stories carry and the impossible love between two different beings. It lacks the threat, the fear, the difficulties and limitations of being a vampire. It lacks a more interesting and daring aesthetic, an imagery that suits this vampire narrative. It lacks a world construction that shows the conflicts, how these vampires live, how they organize themselves, the role of the corporation in this society. It lacks interest in creating a narrative that escapes this commonplace.

Unfortunately, it is a very flawed and lazy story.

Why???

Of all the Japanese series released in recent years, *Cosmetic Playlover* definitely didn't need a second season.

Nothing—I repeat, nothing—happens here. It’s an endless cycle of going to work, talking about what a great company ROMY is, walking down the street recounting the workday and going to sleep; that’s how the series plays out across the entire second season.

If the series had focused on Toma’s trip to Paris and actually developed that storyline, it might have been more interesting. But no, they’re saving that for—who knows—maybe a third season.

Completely unnecessary, unfortunately :(

So, here is a list of series that actually deserved a second season:
My Personal Weatherman
Our Dining Table
Happy of the End
Kabe-Koji-Nekoyashiki-kun Desires to Be Recognized
My Love Mix-Up!
Depth of Field
School Trip: Joined a Group I’m Not Close To
Tokyo in April Is...
I Hear the Sunspot
Love Is a Poison

Painfully captivating

I don't know why I took so long to watch Shine, because this series is a masterpiece. If Gelboys started the year with an impeccable and authentic work, Shine closed 2025 with a bold, political narrative full of emotion and beauty.

The story unfolds with a growing tension that is simply irresistible. The series manages to balance well the coldness and cruelty of the dictatorship with the indulgent freedom and rebellion of those who refused to live in a stolen democracy.

Without a doubt, the protagonists here are Krailert and Naran. The narrative between them is pure excellence. From the impeccable acting to the character development, the letters in the newspaper, the duality of their lives, the forbidden desire, the threats, the conflicts of their professions.

It's truly one of the most interesting narratives I've seen in a long time. It's captivating and agonizing at the same time. It's a tragic story but still endowed with such beauty and nuance. They truly steal the show and are responsible for carrying the most significant storylines of the series.

Dr. Trin and Tanwa work well together and it's obvious that the chemistry between them is irresistible. The acting is top tier and I I had no doubt that they would deliver another excellent piece of work here.

What surprises me is how their characters end up being overshadowed and detached from the main plot of the series. The entire romance between them is choppy and fails to develop at an interesting pace.

Tanwa is the one who loses the most here. He's a character who feels disconnected from the plot. There's no evolution, no change. He goes through the entire plot drugged, drunk, fighting with his father and living a reality oblivious to the suffering around him.

And this makes the character sound selfish and alienated at the peak of his privilege. And when the series decides to put Victor in a "love triangle" with Dr. Trin, his image is completely deteriorated.

But it's undeniable that despite the lack of care for the series' protagonists, the story is simply fantastic and frighteningly close to what we could be experiencing today.

A major highlight is Victor, who, despite falling into the cliché of an impossible love triangle – which I consider unnecessary to the plot – still manages to deliver such a powerful narrative.

The ending unfolds bittersweetly with the painful realization that a forbidden love will never be free but still giving us hope that in the midst of all this chaos, some survived to love again.

A beautiful story and a sublime directorial debut by Jean Khamkwan.

The Shallow Game

Honestly, this series is a mess. Unfortunately, there's not much to salvage here and it's sad to see protagonists with so much chemistry wasted in such a poor series.

The biggest problem here is that the series doesn't know how to work with suspense and create a coherent narrative. Everything is thrown onto the screen and shown right away. All the conflicts, all the secrets, everything is revealed at the start. Everything is obvious and blatant.

And this makes the script spin in the same place the entire series. It's the same dynamic and the same dialogues all the time.

It's downright boring how many times Chet tries to kill Pheem. Or the countless times their father hits Chet and his bodyguard. Or Chet yelling in every scene.

The characters lack depth. It's all too shallow. The revelation that Risa was behind everything should be the plot twist of the series, but it's just another piece of information that's blatantly revealed from the beginning.

And unfortunately, not even the incredible chemistry between the protagonists can save the series. The entire construction of their relationship is lazy and relies on this cliché of their past as children – something I deeply hate in BLs.

It makes no sense for Pheem to shoot Than, then apologize, then fake Than's death, then run away with him and then suddenly they're getting married!! Only for him to run away in the end, fake his death and change his name – which certainly means their marriage certificate is no longer valid.

The script fails to dissect and elaborate on each moment with the necessary depth. The series tries to be edge and dark by including random fight scenes and shootouts with amateurish CGI but that's not enough.

And the ending... all this only for everyone to die in the same way and the hospital to be deserted.

It's a series that tries but falls short due to a weak script that fails to develop the plot in an interesting way, a direction that doesn't know how to extract complexity from its actors and a repetitive storyline with washed-out cinematography and a production that tries to be deeper than it actually is.

Honestly, the relationship between Chet and the bodyguard would be much more interesting than this whole boring plot about inheriting a hospital.

THE BEST BL ever made (:

I finished watching this series almost a month ago and honestly I can't stop thinking about Gelboys. It is without a doubt the best BL ever made.

I'm a bit biased to say this since I think Boss Kuno is one of the best BL directors today, but here he once again surpasses himself and delivers one of the most authentic and interesting series ever made in this industry.

Nothing is chewed up and regurgitated to be consumed easily. What we have here is an original story, full of personality, color, life, desire and excellence.

Every frame of this series is a photograph. The scene composition, the construction of the set, the costumes, the editing, the way Boss captures Thailand is mesmerizing. He shows a real, dirty, messy, alive place. The cinematography makes us feel like we're inside this chaotic world that he creates.

This is without a doubt the series that has the most authentic and realistic representation of teenagers. The way they use social media, the language, the way they dress, the confusing feelings and the embarrassing moments. There are no villains or big kidnapping plots, rich and manipulative families, destroyed secrets, here everything is real, everything is very easy to identify with.

I love how much the series references these influences. The music, the trends, the behaviors that every teenager has when they are in love, the confusions, the game of interests.

And unlike some other series that seem disconnected, here everything makes sense. Boss creates this colorful and maximalist world, full of stickers, graffiti, motion and fashion. The costumes, the sets, the nails and even the editing are full of personality and create this universe so visually rich and interesting.

I could spend hours talking about every aspect and every detail of what I loved about this series. The subtlety, the development, the creativity here are high points. And how innovative and refreshing it is to watch a BL that doesn't infantilize its characters or repeat the same old aesthetic.

Truly, a work of art.

Could be better but still is a masterpiece

There's no denying that Japan knows how to create a simple series, but so full of emotions and beauty that it's impossible not to fall in love. And here it's no different.

The series does have its problems, and the lack of romantic development, the camera trick to hide the kiss and the lack of scenes of them as lovers is something that really disappoints.

However, none of this takes away from the merits of this series. The script is full of nuances, it has a slow development, but it allows the characters to develop naturally. And what characters! Kohei and Taichi are so real, so passionate, so fun, so interesting and brilliantly played.

The acting here is the strong point. Both actors (as well as the rest of the cast) deliver a visual performance and the chemistry between them, the looks, the gestures, everything is impeccable.

The direction and cinematography also deserve to be highlighted. The series is beautiful and the scenes are very well composed.

I understand those who say that the series dragged on and created too many problems until they got together, and I agree with that. But at no point did the series leave me bored or frustrated.

Taichi teaching Kohei how to say his name in sign language, Kohei telling the teacher's jokes so that Taichi wouldn't be left out, Taichi saying he loves Kohei in sign language, this series has such beautiful and silent scenes, but they carry so much weight and devotion that it's impossible not to fall in love with them.

It has its problems, but it's still a masterpiece and a series that shows people with disabilities in a respectful way, in a light and stylish plot and with exemplary performances.

Simples but captivating

It's a very interesting series and a great story for Daou and Offroad, who have undeniable chemistry and deliver an excellent work here.

The story reminds me a lot of First Love, Again and I like how it's developed. It's a simple story, but well executed and what really stands out here is the interaction and charisma of the main actors.

The direction is a bit weak, especially in the action scenes and the more dramatic moments. The series has a soap opera-like feel, especially in the cinematography, which is quite flat and waist the beautiful sets they have.

And one of the only things I don't like about this series is the villains. There's no need for them, they serve no purpose in the plot and the whole discussion about stealing the stone becomes repetitive and tiring. The series could benefit from a secondary couple or better development of the other characters instead of insisting on all this drama of the uncle and the impostor trying to steal the stone.

It's a fun project with great actors, a well-structured story and despite the poor production, it's a series that delivers an excellent result with a couple that exudes chemistry.
