WOWZA

I'll admit, going into this series, I didn't have many expectations if any at all. But this series continues to amaze me each episode. And this one was really the cherry on top. Ohm and Nanon put on a STELLAR performance (and extra kudos to Ohm though, since we really focused on him) with some of the best acting I've seen on GMMTV. I didn't think anything was going to top TOTS, in terms of acting, portrayal, and chemistry, but Bad Buddy might have surpassed it, if not sprinted past it. That had to be one of the best first kisses that we have ever gotten from GMMTV. Not even just the kiss, but its setup, its execution, the emotions, the tears, the music, the acting, the scenery, the subtle meaning of the rooftop, Pat's smile of relief when he finally kissed Pran, finally finding the courage to admit his feelings. Gosh, there was just so much good. I can not wait for the rest of this series to come out, just praying that GMMTV doesn't mess up what they have going so well.

The Utter Pain

The pain in Yok's eyes will be the death of me. Again, the cast but on a stellar performance. I can't believe we're already reaching the end when it feels like it just started yesterday. Dan being the "traitor" (kind sorta? Cause in the end, he did let them escape..?) Was aweing to me. I was kind of with everyone else when I say I thought it would be Gumpa. I still think he has some type of in, whether he's secretly working with the police, or even Tawi (maybe like Tawi's brother or related to him in some way, idk). I would also like to say that Film looked GORGEOUS in this episode. She is always so elegant and plays her character so well, and I just had to shout it out in this episode review. I want next week to be here already, but I won't lie and say that I'm not a little said it's ending. Here's to hoping we don't have any deaths (as long as we get a proper ending, I'll be satisfied).

Laughed My Ass Off

It's so rare that I ever like the first episode of a series, but this one is the anomaly. I love the way these actors are portraying their characters. Obviously, all of them are over-exaggerating, and being extra for no reason, like hiding from Nuea is one scenario I can think of. But it's hilarious, and it's supposed to be that way. Of course, this series shouldn't be taken seriously, and I know I'm not as I usually do. It's melodramatic and over the top for a reason, to get a laugh out of the viewers. Nothing any of the characters do I would ever support in real life, but this is a BL, and I usually don't take these things seriously when it's happening in a fictional world. It's obvious that Toh has an extreme obsession with Nuea, which isn't healthy, and at times was a bit much (collecting the things he's touched, his collage of photos, the bedsheets, and don't even get me started on the cardboard cut out...good lord). Part of me wishes that they would've made Nuea some bigtime celebrity that went to their uni so maybe Toh's obsession wasn't as unorthodox. But anyway, I can already tell this is going to be my new feel-good series like Tonhon Chonlatee and Gen Y -- a series that you shouldn't take to heart and realize they're just there to get some type of positive reaction out of you. Don't take the things these characters do seriously -- take their conflicts, personalities, relations, and outcomes with a grain of salt. I'll just have to hope that the people watching aren't easily influenced by the decisions they see these characters making.

Like the comment under me said: Improvement !

This episode felt a lot better than the ones we've seen so far. Everything felt well put together, and we finally get a decent moment between our leads in which we finally see them have a moment that feels authentic and actually gave me a few butterflies. The end of this episode was giving me "Theory of Love" feels with them comparing the movie to their relationship, and quite honestly, their kiss was perfectly-timed and so well-done. I'm liking how the enchante candidates might be somewhat vindictive, and kind of evil rather than us thinking they were all in love with Theo. It's a nice turn if that's the case! Also, we got a slight maybe-sorta-something that could happen between Tan and Phupha. For now, they're enemies, but I feel an enemies-to-lovers coming through. Let's hope so, cause I think Tan is the cutest ever. I think my excitement for this show has pushed through more, so I'm excited for next Friday !!

Killer Episode

I don't know if I can continue thinking that every episode before the next is my favorite one, but geez, this was such an amazing episode. The severity, the realization, the hurt from all characters in this episode was spot-on. The real Black beating up Sean and him just pleading for him to stop was sad, but seriously shows how strong of a performer both Gun and Off are. I'm curious about Gram and Eugene, I'm thinking something will happen with them, even though I was thinking it would happen between Gram and Black. This series does an amazing job at makeup and making their injuries look so surreal. I can't wait until next week's episode, hopefully, everyone is okay! (Also, I don't know who the bad dude that walked in and started shooting and almost killed Sean was, but he was fine as fuck).

Okay Episode

This was nothing too exciting. Lots of crying though, plenty of that to go around. I also feel like Sandee finally apologizing and climbing down from his evilness was so anti-climatic. All he had to do was have a conversation with Phai to stop? The same Phai who already had a conversation with him on multiple occasions? Okay. At least we're starting to see some connections to them developing a relationship. I still don't understand Kit and Mark's situation. It's so dumb. Why does Kit need time alone?? Anyone?? This is me being nitpicking, but I absolutely hate it when Wayu or Thanu get coffee and it's so clear there's nothing in the cup. Putting water in the cup to at least balance it out would've been enough. Geez.

This is Getting So Good

Not Me continues to snatch me by the ponytail. I'm loving every second of this. The mystery, the angst, the action, the lustfulness. Gawin looked MAGNIFICANT and he was only in this episode for a good 5-7 minutes. I don't know what it is about Mond that he literally gives me the chills because of how beautiful he is, but oh my god. Overall, this was a good episode. We're getting some clues to who could possibly be behind Black's injuries, but I'm almost positive it'll be Tod, but maybe the series won't go to be so simplistic, and the ending result will be shocking. Excited for next week's episode!

So Much Kit and Mark

I was pleasantly surprised by this episode. One, because we finally got a decent amount of Kim and Copter time. At the brink of hopelessness, Kit says that Mark can do whatever he wanted to him, but Mark declines, wanting it to be something they both needed. Had me a bit teary-eyed. They're just so *aggressive noises cause I don't know how else to explain it*. I wasn't feeling Pok and Tong, but their storyline definitely picked up this episode. I'm loving the angst. (And that shower scene, oh my god). Wayu and Thanu are now just being pretty cute boyfriends instead of being all moppy. I'm so happy where this series is going. This had to probably be one of my favorite episodes so far.

Another good episode!

I'm enjoying the politics of this BL the most. They are really speaking out on some heavy topics that I never saw coming in a GMMTV series or a Thai series at that. This BL is already standing out as something more than a Boys' love and I really appreciate that. Where was Gram this episode? I might've missed a comment that he was away somewhere, Yok and Dan's story is getting really interesting. I'm intrigued on why Yok is so mesmerized by Dan. Maybe because of his murals, maybe because he's really cute? (probably the latter). I'm enjoying Sean and White/Black, but maybe not as much as I was hoping. One part that is starting to be a bother is that they keep kind of instructing "Black" on where things are, or how to do things. If this is the real Black, then why must you tell him where the bathroom is? Why must you show him how to shoot if he was the one that taught you? I don't know, probably just a few errors in the script. Or, it could be that Sean, Yok, Gram, and Gumpa already know that that's not Black. I do believe that Sean knows, but maybe not the others. My other theory is that Sean had a crush o the real Black, but maybe Black never picked up on it, or maybe he's strictly only into girls. Now that White is playing the reality of Black, and Sean knows it, he's acting differently now. Why else would he cry when Black said he would quit? Why would Sean really want to clean up "Black" when Black could've done it himself? IDK, just some analyzing.

Hmm

Idk how to feel about this episode. Again, with no surprise, Ohm and Nanon packed on the chemistry and put on a stellar performance. Ink and Pa gave us pretty much nothing and we're already on ep 10, so I need them to hurry up. I loved them calling out the "I'm not gay I only like you" trope, Hilarious, one of the highlights of this series that I'll remember forever. I LOVED that Drake actually got somewhat of decent screen time this episode. He was hilarious, and I love how he was accepting of Pat and Pran. but one person that frustrated me was Wai. How would you call yourself a "best friend" and then reveal to the entire school Pat and Pran's relationship (pretty much outing them to the entire school). Then he had the audacity to sit up and be angry the entire episode, then to get himself almost shot. Then we continue down this slippery slope of ridiculousness that was so uncalled for. Prat gets grazed with a bullet and I couldn't hold in my scream laugh, Like wtf, that was so...random?? if they needed a situation for Pan to run into Prat's parents, they could've found another way, there were plenty of other ways. All in all, this was a lot in one episode. Hopefully next episode will go back to feeling a bit normal, with some angst from their parents.
