-
1. Only Friends
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
Chaos / Drama / Push and Pull. It was just *fun* to watch. I never felt bored watching this show. Overall just an angsty fun time.
-
2. The Warp Effect
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Wholesome and angsty sex ed show with a lot of queer rep characters. I appreciated that quite a bit. Especially since I wasn't expecting it to be as solid as it was. Surprising overall.
-
3. Eu Não
Thai Drama - 2021, 14 episodes
It's just a classic at this point. One show I would actively rewatch most likely. Solid chemi from most of the cast. And not even *just* romantic chemistry but the chemistry between all of the characters. No one felt like a "side character" even if they were.
-
4. Last Twilight
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
Some of Jimmy and Sea's finest work. They really did these characters justice. I just found this overall one of the more wholesome of my top picks almost the whole way through. Pillowy soft romance with *understandable* angst. Very solid.
-
5. O Eclipse
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Such a garbage episode 11, but otherwise one of my favourite GMM shows to date. I'm just a sucker for sass and that's 90% of the conversation between Akk and Ayan. (Plus I'm painfully First / Khao biased and I'm fully aware.)
-
6. Be My Favorite
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
Such a solid comeback for Krist in my opinion. I think he had wonderful on-screen chemistry with Gawin as well. Just silly and fun! I need to knock it down still since I do have very specific feelings about the (what I would consider) ace erasure. It did not feel malicious but the wording sent me back a bit. I feel somewhat hurt is all.
-
7. Moonlight Chicken
Thai Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
I feel like the casting was just phenomenal. It's slower-paced than I generally prefer but I honestly didn't mind that. Full of feels / angst. Chef's kiss.
-
8. Vice Versa
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Longing puppy-dog stares and fluff. Just so much fluff. The friend group was quite silly and I had a blast watching week to week.
-
9. Peixe no Céu
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
The beginning of the PondPhuwin arc. I have such a soft spot for this drama. It's not a popular opinion based on the rating on MDL but I love my problematic babies. Pfft. Only real downside for me are the shipper scenes. Cut those out and it's golden for me.
-
10. A Boss and a Babe
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
Checks off a lot of my favourite tropes. Office romance / Bickering or Teasing coworkers to lovers / A sprinkle of fluff (but not too much) and a smidgen of gaming / streamer cuteness. I dunno. I was just weak. Plus ForceBook really knocked it outta the park for me. Pfft.
-
11. Não Me Abandone Jamais
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Ah yes, more PondPhuwin. Pfft. Imagine that. Just a fun lil romp IMO. I think, perhaps, the flow of the story was a bit all over the place but I love a lil bodyguard romance.
-
12. Cherry Magic
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
Overall soft. I feel like there was a moment, mid-show, where it slowed down just a bit too much... I took a solid break from this. But as soon as I hopped back in I was sold.
-
13. Star and Sky: Star in My Mind
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Why hello there mutual pining, old friend. I'm a sucker for it. Also just such a nice re-introduction to Joong. I'm a fan. Easy as that. He's a cutie.
-
14. Sky in Your Heart
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
I think it was a rough go at the start but the fluff was fluffy as soon as the romance began. I also found Prince to be just the sweetest little peapod that ever was. Such a bright little light. Adorable. Very much so Grumpy x Sunshine.
-
15. Bad Buddy
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
I feel weird having this as low as it is based on rating, but it's not a show I'd likely rewatch. It was however a solid first watch! It was one of those 'you had to be there while it was airing' kind of dramas. Everyone was going wild. Such a fun experience.
-
16. Dangerous Romance
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
I was basically here for the second couple at some point. I think the PerthChimon chemistry was just not really there and it made for a 'just okay' watch. Still okay overall. Just not my cuppa.
-
17. Enchanté
Thai Drama - 2022, 10 episodes
I have a love-hate relationship with Enchante. I think reverse harem just isn't really my cuppa. Especially when it's 'fake' or so? But I still find ForceBook adorable throughout. Some really silly / iconic moments throughout as they tiptoe around their very obvious mutual pining.
-
18. 2gether: A Série
Thai Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
So much pining. And secret pining at that. I feel like I struggled with it being a music-centric show but it was overall quite cute. I'd say this was relatively mid for me. Not great but not the worst.
-
19. Faceless Love
Thai Drama - 2023, 14 episodes
"Fuck the second female lead"-the show. I was *SO* excited for a new drama with Dew but this was so disappointing. The chemistry felt great initially but as they grew closer, it almost felt like they stopped trying? I dunno. I'd just honestly suggest watching Suho's remake over this one.
-
20. Hidden Agenda
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
Oh boy oh boy... As soon as they hit that 3/4ths mark in the show they essentially had no drama left so it felt like they had to shove in whatever they could to hit the 'required 12 episode' arc. At least that's how it *felt* while watching this show. Such a shame since I actually really enjoyed a decent amount of this show...
-
21. O Presidente da Minha Escola
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
Again, another show with a solid rating but lower in my list. Honestly, it was just *too* fluffy for me. I loved this show but it was just, again, not really my cuppa overall. I would HIGHLY suggest this to friends who love unbothered fun lil fluff shows.
-
22. Cooking Crush
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
-
23. Teoria do Amor
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
This is one of my toxic little guilty pleasure shows so I've rated it quite high, but I don't think it's something I would actively want to go back on and rewatch unless it was to show a friend. I would however go back and look at certain scenes that are just a hoot and a half. Love some classic pairings!
-
24. F4 Tailândia: Meninos Antes de Flores
Thai Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
I thought this was fun! But at the same time it's F4... soooo there are about a million other iterations that I can't stop myself from comparing it to. Not something I'd rewatch likely ever but fun. + Dew. Pfft. So there's that.
-
25. Ton Hon Chon Tee
Thai Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
I have a love-hate situationship with this show. I honestly do like a lot of the characters but the repressed queerness and the overt queerphobia. Ehhhh. Not really my favourite but definitely a guilty pleasure sorta show. I feel like I don't hate it as much as the overwhelming majority seem to...
-
26. SOTUS
Thai Drama - 2016, 15 episodes
I've a soft spot for SOTUS. It's in the realm of pure angst which I do love but also is not something I would likely rewatch ever. Reread however is a whole other story.
-
27. SOTUS S
Thai Drama - 2017, 13 episodes
The lesser of the SOTUS in my opinion. Honestly very forgettable and for that alone I feel like it kinda deserves to be in my bottom ranks...
-
28. Still 2gether
Thai Special - 2020, 5 episodes
Lemme be 110%, this just felt like a continuation that didn't need to happen. I was perfectly happy with the way 2gether ended. It was cute I suppose if you like the side cast but I wasn't very engaged.
-
29. Dark Blue Kiss
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
You would *THINK* I'd love this since I'm a hoe for possessive leads. That's definitely up my alley. I just did not find this to be an enjoyable viewing experience. I would perhaps give this another go *maybe* in the future? But I have so little interest in watching again. It's also kinda crazy since I do really like Tay. Pfft. Unfortunate really.
-
30. Minha Ferramenta e o seu Jaleco
Thai Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
Breakups every couple episodes. Too much back and forth and just generally not for me. Not an enjoyable watch in my opinion but it was *fine* to begin with. Definitely a show that required 1.5x speed at some point (at least for me).
