Rewatch

Verdict: Simply beautiful. A simple, and complex emotional landscape exploring what it means to chase your happiness and build community.

Verdict: Absolutely stands up against even an excellent S1. Easily one of the best acted shows I have ever watched and some incredible strong storytelling.

Verdict: An unexpectedly moving and beautiful series. A complete package with great characters and a heartfelt plot.

Verdict: Incredible execution of an excellent concept with some pretty flimsy politics. Some of the most compelling production choices I've ever seen from GMMTV.

Verdict: Saint and Idol Factory might have bigger dreams than the company is currently able to handle, but this show really captured my heart despite its ragged edges. I'll always support a heartfelt, unique concept that falters over a really clean project with nothing new to say.

Verdict: A rare win from GMMTV, 1000 Stars manages a very successful melancholy slow burn that leaves you healed and happy. Exactly what I needed at the time.

Verdict: Not to be toxic, but Type is the character of all time. The character conflict in this show puts the rest of BL to shame. It was so satisfying to watch these characters grow.

Watched 2x

Verdict: One of the best acted BLs this year, Unknown made a name for itself leaning into the taboo romance and fully exploring the heart of these characters.

Verdict: A super unexpected knock-out. Despite a slightly shakier script than most, EarthMix deliver exactly the same amount of charm and chemistry.

Verdict: I feared the worst in a sequel, but ended up loving the character growth! Type continues to be my very special little boy. 

Watched 2x

Verdict: Excellent storytelling on a melancholy concept. Would have liked to see a little more with these characters, though.

Verdict: I don't care what anyone says this show is beautiful. No one understands her like I do.

Watched 2x

Verdict: If I was going off pure fun of the watching experience Pit Babe would be #1. I've never had more fun in BL fandom.

Watched 3x

Verdict: An intriguing and mature character study with an understated approach and satisfying ending.

Verdict: Really, really cute show with a lot of heart despite a slightly rocky landing. I love this romcom overload of a show. It's so much fun.

Rewatch

Verdict: For someone who is not a huge fan of pure-hearted romance, this was an unexpectedly moving watch. A bit saccharine for my taste, but it helped melt me this winter.

Verdict: Despite a mildly bland central theme, this show pulled out a very fun mystery with charming characters and plenty of enjoyable scenes. Perhaps not the most original, but well constructed and well performed.

Verdict: The only reason this is so low is that I find the office drama very dull. I absolutely love the concept and magic of this series!

Verdict: A competent and fairly standard K-BL. Nothing particularly groundbreaking here, but enjoyable.

Verdict: A fun thriller with charming characters... but ultimately a story that failed to live up to it's inflated reputation.

Verdict: One of my least favorite MAME series. To me, this one felt more formulaic than charming toxic soap opera.

Verdict: If I was watching this show for any other reason than to see Mew be silly and in love, it would probably have been more disappointing.

Verdict: An important, but ultimately not very good GL title. Passion and determination alone couldn't save this script.

Verdict: We watched this to look at Force, and by golly did we look at Force. No complaints there. The plot however?

Verdict: Look, I was only here to see Nut Supanut get warm milk and a hug. But this was high-key insane (negative). I did have fun though, so that's on me.

Verdict: I only enjoyed the ZeeSaint story, and spent the last several episodes fast-forwarding through anything that wasn't them. It did inspire me to finally watch TharnType though!

Verdict: A strange one! This production had a lot of promise but largely missed the mark. I finished it... but I didn't really enjoy it.

Verdict: What started as a fun whodunnit quickly morphed into a pseudo-paranormal horror that didn't stick the landing.

Dropped!: A really cute and funny show that was ruined (for me) with a turn towards infidelity/jealousy.

Dropped!: Empty characters, offensive representations of neurodivergence, and make up advertisements in place of self-esteem makes it a no from me, pal.

Dropped!: Circus is a gimmick, not a plot, and Cheewin's phoned in the direction.
