your fairy queer mother
South Africa
It's for giggles. Only.
I can't get over how humorous this series of queer unfortunate events was. I will never get over it.Take nothing seriously, expect no deep and life-changing lessons and experiences for the characters.
Expect Shakespearean miscommunication and all sorts of awkward and fumbling "will they/ won't they" moments. The confusion of a queer awakening is top notch. Definite recommendation for a good laugh. If the opening doesn't hook you, you broke your sense of humour, move on to something a little more serious.

written for the GenX and Millenial LGBTQIA+ community. fair warning.
I did not stop laughing from the first episode. I have lived so much of these characters' lives and struggles myself so it was all sorts of relatable to me personally. perfect for a good laugh and nostalgia of uni days and the mess of just after. all the fumbling around and tiptoeing and awkward encounters in an "LGBTQIA+ friendly, but not really" city/country. forgetting that the heterosexual and cisgender population was so on brand for me and my own friend group. zero complaints and all the recommendations.Was this review helpful to you?
For my Drama Kings and Queens
I have never related more on a spiritual level.I have never downloaded a soundtrack so fast (Getsunova really said "I'm going to hurt you in Thai AND English, so buckle up buttercup).
I have never cried and laughed so much in an individual episode.
I have never rooted so hard for the shitty MLI to get their sh!t together and dive head first into their redemption arc so he can be worthy of the soft, pjnkng, deserved-better-from-the-start MC.
I have never had so many relatable moments of Dramatic B!tch™ to feel called out over.
I have never made up so many memes and in-jokes with my bestie over ONE show and friend group of characters.
I have never had an instant favourite show 2 episodes in like this.
I will never recommend anything this strongly.
Besties that want to gush or do a rewatch together, please, reach out. I still have so feelings so many years later.

IT GOT REAL
if you're looking for the angst and internal struggle from the first season... abandon those expectations now, with immediate effect. it got so real and so deep and so realistic so quickly. I laughed, I cried, I fumed, I held out all the hope for the HEA that Korn and Knock (and the viewer) deserved and I was not disappointed. the chemistry between Thul and Max will have you forget they aren't really an item, so be careful of that (but the knscreen relationship is more than enough). you've got to fight for love, regardless of who your partner is and whether their the opposite or same sex. I applaud the screenwriters for how well they handled it all and brought the mature dynamic of an adult relationship (let's ignore the childish antics of their plotting and scheming to fix shit for a second) it was much appreciated and needed. bless Thai media for seeing and serving the queers, I see and appreciate you ❤️Was this review helpful to you?
Blessed be the Queer Council
CC! MY GODDESS! MY INSPIRATION!If ever I have had a caraciture of my own friend group thrown into my life unexpectedly, it was through Formula 7.
You will be too busy laughing and telling the other characters off to be sad about practically anything else. Perfect pick-me-up after a sad drama or movie that just disrespected your need for queer joy. Do yourself the favour of having this one on standby for when your own love life is in turmoil, babes. Trust Aunt Chuck, aka, your local Fairy Queer Mother.
