Moved to write my first review because this show made me angry

Watching episodes 1 through 6, I was impressed with the production values and character development -- less so with acting and makeup. Episode 7 was ridiculous and stirred a visceral response. These are two grown young adults. Men who (supposedly) have gone through so much pain in order to be together. We've skipped ahead in time (lazy trope) to jump right over their reconciliation and watch them enjoy a winter (?) beach vacation together. Two guys in their 20s. In love. Alone. And they are terrified of touching each other. Not only did that throw me out of the story completely, but it also made me feel used. Look up "queerbait" and there's A Shoulder to Cry On. I understand that the actors are from Omega X, and they're limited in what they can do. This show should have been made with different actors or, I'm sad to say, not made at all.
