Except for The Eclipse, which was at least watchable, the other episodes of OS2 were disappointing, and the first MSP episode was nothing but a missed opportunity.
I like Title very much, and after the first two episodes of this I thought he had finally had the good luck of playing in a good series after he used to have the bad luck of playing in bad series before. After episode 3 it looks like he's back where he used to be. How are they going to fill 12 episodes when they already fill the third episode with unnecessary flashbacks? I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thought I was watching a previous episode.
Maybe they should turn the cat into a human and find a cute guy to play him so that we can have a love triangle to fill the remaining 9 episodes?
May be i will be rude but i think it's really time Oxin film hire a real good and proper screenwriter ! Ideas…
It isn't only the writing. Casting seems to be a problem, too, because Leilani Kate Yalung (the restaurant owner) can't act at all, and tbh Miko is very weak, too. James Ramada has proven in TTLS and "Osmosis" that he can act, but here his overacting hurts, which may be the director's fault. And if I start talking about that dog, this will become rant, so I'll stop here. I love the red haired guy, though, because he comes across completely authentic.
Hiro and Jericho do deserve their own series, so I'm happy for them, but I'm a little nervous if "My Day 3" is written, casted and directed by the same people as this one.
Bokura no Shokutaku and Zenra Meshi are both Japanese and food-related, they are both very well written, directed, and acted, they both deal with shy, adult men very cautiously getting closer to each other, but they are completely different. They are my favourite series at the moment and make me forget all the trash coming from Thailand these days.
In previous episodes, I focused so much on lovely Tane that I almost overlooked Inukai and Iijima's great chemistry and brilliant acting, so I'm happy that they got their quality time together alone in this episode. This is a wonderful series even when Tane is taking a break, but even today he set the highlight of the show when he asked his father if Yutaka was going to die. That was a very special moment, and another proof of the beautiful writing of this series.
I usually like series with shorter episodes better than Thai series that drag on and on, but in this case there are just too many characters and subplots packed into 15 minutes, so everything seems rushed.
I like this show, but do they really need to extend episodes to 80 minutes? Telling the story in half that time would have been less boring, and Bruce and Up would still have had enough time to shine.
Perth was already amazing in LBC when he played a main role at age 17, and his acting at the beginning of episode…
I agree that he was brilliant in "Stranded". Perth is no 2 on the list of my favourite Thai BL actors, and he would be no 1 if I didn't love PP Krit so much.
This is really very hard to watch. The lead couple have zero chemistry, the Miss Becky story is embarrassing, and I don't want to watch people running around looking for a dog for ages, or listen to grown men sitting in the dark asking each other questions like 12-year-olds. I'm only sticking with it because of the Zeke/Fifth subplot - everything else is unnecessary and nonsensical.
There are some hidden Pinoy gems from after 2020 as well, like Love Beneath the Stars.
Lakan is one of my favourite - and completely underrated - Pinoy series, and it's a pity that Paul and John's "Turbulence" series hasn't been completed although the raw material is all there. I've also been a fan of Mark Erasga, and all of his series are also completely underrated like most Pinoy series, especially Clik Clak Clok. I'm surprised that "The day I loved you" is rated at 8.0 which feels like the highest rating for a Pinoy series since Gaya Sa Pelikula.

Unfotunately, "Meet my Angel season 1" is now only available on Jodi Garcia'a new youtube account, "Acquired Film Production", where episode 1 has no subs, while ep. 3 isn't there at all. Season 2 is complete. Btw I also like that Gio Emprese plays a serious character here, and he does deliver just as Enzo Santiago, Rex Lantano, and Miggy Campbell. It's so sad that Jodi treated cast and crew so badly, because he seemed to be able to make his actors perform at their very best level.

I think "Stranger's Kiss" was a rough diamond - the story was unique and some of the acting good, unfortunately it had some technical flaws (to put it mildly) as had the most heartbreaking Bl series of all times (sorry, I love it) "Meet my Angel 1 and 2", with Kaleb Ong deserving a best actor's award. Kaleb and Dave Revilla were also brilliant in the short film "Lihim".
Another "Boss and babe" story, but I'm enjoying this more than "A Boss and a Babe" and "Step by Step". Okay, all the BL tropes are there, and the "babe" acts in a way that would get him fired in real life, but this isn't an office documentary, but plan and simple BL entertainment, and as such it's well written and acted. And in contrast to the Thai series that are dragging on and on, this story is being told in 8 short episodes, so there's a good chance that this won't get boring.
I agree with all those who say that this is a bad series, a very bad series, as it lacks a plot and feels like a row of completely random scenes. I'll still miss it, because I love Run and Tiger. I hope that they can act in a series with a better script, because both of them have a great potential as actors.
The actor perth is I am AMAZED . he did so well as Chopper and amazing as WIN too . Top tier actor
Perth was already amazing in LBC when he played a main role at age 17, and his acting at the beginning of episode 3 of UWMA imo is the best acting of anyone in that show. He only played a guest role in Vice Versa, and all of a sudden the main actors, Jimmy and Sea, looked completely amateurish. Perth is one of the best for sure.
