2 Moons: The Series (2017)

This is going to be a difficult review for me because I adore the cast so much but I want to write an honest review so here we go.

I am not very critical; usually, if the story makes me feel something (even if the plot sucks) I can't be too harsh but when I compare this to other bl series I've watched (and there aren't a lot of them) I can't help but think about its flaws. I obviously ALMOST loved it, otherwise I wouldn't have given it 8 stars, but again, I am NOT a harsh critic and pretty much everything is fine with me.

STORY: Yes, it was cute. It made sense and it allowed us to understand the characters. But it could have been so much better! It was like they were putting everything a bl fan loves in one show but that doesn't work because it becomes cheesy after a while. They could have made it a little bit more interesting, even if it was different from the book. And when it could have gotten better, it just didn't (I'm referring to the "love triangle" thing, which should have been developed or not there at all!).

CHARACTERS/ACTING/CAST: The acting was just fine, in my opinion. I don't think there was a lot the actors could do with that script. And as I've already said, I love the cast, especially God and Kimmon. But there were some characters that started annoying me after a while. I'm sorry but Yo shouldn't have been the main character. He was so uninteresting that I couldn't make myself like the main couple as much as I could have. He was innocent but that didn't have to make him boring. I liked Pha much better. Beam and Forth were kind of just there? They didn't really contribute to the plot, in my opinion, even though I liked both of them. Kit and Ming had the best dynamic but lacked development. The side characters were good enough.

MUSIC: I just didn't care for it.

REWATCH? This may sound contradictory but I would rewatch this series. It's a fun show, at the end of the day.

CONCLUSION: They shouldn't have tried to make a "perfect show" with all the "attractive elements" because that's what ruined it a little for me. I'm anxiously waiting for season 2 though! But I've heard God won't be in it, is that true? That makes me really sad because I really liked Pha. Oh well, I hope it's better than the first one!

Don't be afraid to watch this series, you will probably like it a lot ^^

This is a very cute drama that's nice if you're not looking for anything too serious. The chemistry between all of the actors was really great, and their stories all progressed in very believable ways. The character development was very evident from the start of the series to the end and I found it fulfilling to see. The main couple had a very interesting dynamic, as did the secondary couple. The production value was pretty high up there with some of the best dramas I've seen. I would've liked to see a little less awkwardness during some of the more serious scenes, and I also would have liked for certain plot points to be explicitly discussed/resolved, but overall it was pretty good.

Definitely a series that will make you smile, if nothing else.

Yes! You'll be disappointed. They changed the entire cast and replaced them with, i don't want to be rude, but I want to be honest . .. Original casts were replaced by, NVM. But I'll give it to them, yes, they were all trying but it's just that something is really off, something is missing or lacking. Especially when you were hooked already with the original casts. I felt so bad for them especially to Bas, he shed tears during interviews regarding the changes. He was really looking forward to do it, he was eager to do it. But he was robbed! My poor baby was robbed!! It was pure injustice. I don't hate the new cast, I HATE THE MANAGEMENT!! THE PRODUCERS!! THE AUTHOR!!! yes, your story made me smile, laugh, it made me joyful. It gave me hope abouy love but your decisions are awful, disgusting!!

But if you really want to watch it, GO! I highly recommend this to every BL fan out there.

Things that I really want to see in a movies or series are: looks, chemistry, acting, and storyline.

LOOKS: Wayo (Bas Suradej Pinnirat) is very cute and handsome, has fair complexion, and has nice sexy body built and for Phana (God Itthipat Thanit) is handsome and so damn hot.

CHEMISTRY: When it comes to chemistry they are good at each other. They will really make the girls and LGBT community jealous if they are together.

ACTING: Wayos's acting is very genuine and cute. I wanted to kiss that lips also its so kissable. While Phana's acting is so sexy to watch.

STORYLINE: It really makes my heart happy when the guy is the person who has a first crush to the gay person. It's kinda weird though and I don't know if it really happens in real life since usually it's the gay person who will first approach the man. I really like also those scenes that Phana put the keys in his mouth and he was teasing Wayo to get it using his mouth too. Ughhh so damn hot.

This was one of the first BL series that I starting seeing. The plot line is well maintained and deeper than just a fan-biased show. This series walks through the breaking the gender of relationships and just feel how that person makes you feel, blindly. The actors have very good chemistry. This can be related to real life as we all know that coincidence is only a fairytale we tell ourselves and everything happens for a reason, even when you are put in a position that others wanted you to do. The story does very well with gradually picking up the momentum as it progresses and making you crave to see what happens next. What happens when pride and image are no longer your concern, and your true feelings are allowed to come through? This is a must watch series.

I loved this drama. One of my first BL’s and it was really good. I like the character choice and how the directors and actors made the fans attached to this series. I didn’t really focus on the music selections, sorry. I also was upset that we didn’t get a taste of Forth x Beam but apparently Forth will start chasing Beam in the season 2. This series really did pull me in, and I couldn’t stop watching it, as I had to finish it. I like the drama and tension between Yo and Phana, and absolutely loved Kit and Mings moments. I enjoyed watching it, and I am definitely going to rewatch it.

This was my first Thai BL and I think it's definitely a good starter for anyone who isn't familiar with the genre. I found the series off a yt suggestion and was hooked after one episode. The show takes the whole first episode to take off but once it does it's worth it. Some people think the show drags or could have been cut down. I think it could have benefited from being cut down to 11 as I felt like the last episode was pointless except for the big moment which could have been added to episode 11. While I liked the main couple and contrary to a lot of people, didn't think their acting was so stiff, I did prefer the other side pairings and characters more. Ming, Beam, and Forth stand out a lot more than Wayo and Pha, not just with their own romances which are not that developed but personality wise. Forth is what kept me watching after episode one as he just gave off a cool vibe. Ming was hilarious and so supportive which is always great to see. Beam was such a small character who stole scenes just by his presence. I read the novels and know what to expect so here's hoping that season 2 is coming and soon.

So, I just encountered this series accidentally from a video suggestion in YT (the scene where Pha, Forth, and Ming are looking at Yo after he took a shower) LOL.

The story itself is so cute and fluffy!!! Haha, the first scenes are kinda frustrating tho, but it is all worth it!! The soundtrack is so good, haha, I keep on replaying it in my playlist. The acting is a bit stiff, but I'll forgive it since this is the first series of the main actors.

I honestly would like to see Season 2, but I know it's gonna be hard. The issues between the actors contracts are not that easy to resolve.

It is a must watch for new fujoshi's. :)

2 Moons The Series is a lighthearted, cute and fresh BL that will get you addicted to its characters very easily.
The story is good, the whole basis is stable and the way it develops is also decently done. I love the characters (and love them even more now, after season 2) and all but the actors weren't really my thing. I mean, I liked most of the cast, they did a good job and their hard work payed of due to the popularity of the series. However, as I'm editing this (after watching season 2 with cast change), I can say that most of the love I nurtured was for the characters themselves and not for the acting the cast presented. Lots of people were upset that the cast would be different for second season but I really love second season's cast and I can't help but wonder what it would have been like to have this whole season with that cast instead of the short 4 re-tell episodes.
But enough of comparisons. Overall I really enjoyed this one, the music is also good.

It has its flaws, it obviously does. There are parts where everything seems out of place and it seems like the story is going nowhere. But if I were to speak about all the flaws it would ruin my idea of these series so I prefer to rate it and not go into much detail (my score does take into account the flaws though, of course).
At the time that I first watched this one I remember loving it. 2moons was all I wanted during the time I was watching it. But after finishing I couldn't really recall why I liked it so much. Still can't quite pinpoint why but I'm glad I enjoyed this cause season 2 is wonderful. My big issue with 2Moons is the main couple, Phayo, which I can't help but feel like they don't really fit as a main couple and are somewhat boring. This issue isn't only with this season though, the couple's story isn't one that pulls me in. The good thing is that the side couples do make it worth it, MingKit and ForthBeam are wonderful.

If you are looking for a soft, lightly funny bl, you might enjoy this one (I highly recommend watching cause season two is a whole 8/10). If you do not wanna go through the cast change then you can just watch 2Moons2 since they did a pretty good job at summing up this whole season is only 4 episodes.
