Geez! You're always 1 step ahead of the rest of us! LOL Great points!
P.S. Did you notice the big "hickey" on Sky's neck during that recitation with his mom! lmao I'm wondering if that was intentional subtlety! AND, how come mom didn't notice it??? lol
Well, honestly, I don't really have an distinct opinion about this ep. Story-wise, I thought it was a little bit better than just OK. And yes, it follows the book probably much closer than the Tin/Can relationship in LBC1. However, IMO, I thought that Can's character in LBC1 had a little more quality than this Can in LBC2. Yes, Can was naive and silly when it came to romance and love. But, really, what 19/20 year old kid really knows ALL the ins and out of love at that age. Also IMO, a little naivety made Can seem a little more real than the other characters in LBC1. And yes, the other characters in LBC1 fulfilled the wants of the fans by being cutesy, overly dramatic, yada, yada, yada. I actually didn't like the portrayal of Can in the novel, because he was portrayed as extremely naive, as well as a sex-crazed bottom-boy wanting to do nothing but sexually please Tin (just because he lost a football game!) Now, that's drama! LOL I actually, can't wait to see if this series follows the rest of the novel in its completion. If it does, it should be quite an interesting ending. LMAO

Good selection! However, I personally didn't like Tharn/Type (due to all the tropes, stereotypes, rape, and sexual violence, etc.) . But, to each his own.
My sincere apologies to the posters of this series. I used the term "train wreck" to describe this series. I previously used "train wreck" to describe another series and must've gotten the two confused. LOL! Unfortunately, they're BOTH wrecks and I should've been more aware of which wreck is which! Lmao ?? Therefore, I shall now clarify. My Day isn't a train wreck, it's more of a "ten car pile up at rush hour!"
What? It's a fetish to think a love scene is hot? Some people here are really prudish. Yikes.
Well, actually I do think they can at least get some of the wreckage "back on the tracks." LoL Now, will that make it a "good" series as far as quality, tropes, stereotypes. cliches, etc.? No F***ing Way! BUT, it can still be enjoyable enough for an occasional laugh or sigh (at the tender moments), while we're in covid-19 lockdown.

In an oddball kind of way, I can see your point. I actually agree with you that one steamy love scene can't wash away 7 and 3/4 episodes of whatever it was before (I said train wreck, myself, lol). But, if the producers/director can actually pull off a BL love scene (that didn't involve rape, drunken stupor, or any of the other common tropes), then just maybe in the last 4 episodes, they can turn this series around just enough to make worth watching until the end??? IDK, IMO, the love scene was done pretty well, as far as love scenes go.
OK. This series has so many flaws, it's not even worth mentioning. However, it has been a little bit of a comedic break due to Covid-19. Like many of you, with this series, I just "went along for the ride," not really expecting too much in terms of quality. However, I'd have to say, the last scene in Ep. 8 was one of the sexiest, hottest, and romantic (if not THE sexiest, hottest,and most romantic) scenes I've ever seen in a BL drama! I mean, WOW! THAT WAS HOT!
I love how everyone is like "after this episode..." Don't forget we're only half way through, we shouldn't be…
I believe most of us (including myself) would probably agree with you. But, this series has been such a train wreck, it was just a little bit refreshing to finally see an ep. that actually peaked an interest in watching. AND, with 8 eps. to go, it is possible (just possible mind you) that they could get this series "back on track" just enough to get it "into the station." (a little train wreck humor) Lmao!
