The Best BL Series So Far

Gaya Sa Pelikula (Like In The Movies) is the best BL series so far. Why? Most BLs suffer from problematic tropes whereas GSP addressed these issues and called them out single-handedly.

Also, Gay, Bi, and Queer erasure in BLs are pretty rampant and GSP clearly showed us #NoToGayErasure #NoToBiErasure and #NoToQueerErasure. Not to mention, one of the main leads (Paolo Pangilinan) is openly a member of the LGBTQIA+ Community and that is representation right there. I have nothing against straight actors, but we need more members of the community to play LGBTQIA+ characters because “representation matters”.

GSP is beyond just a BL Series, it is a protest--a revolution.

Those who sees this show as too woke or preachy are just blinded by their own self-serving biases. But then again let's not forget to #EducateNotHate
