Skinship (2020)

NOT GAY RELATIONSHIP

Cette série est juste une vaste blague! La seule relation entre le couple gay est qu'ils balancent qu'ils sont ensemble depuis 4 mois et qu'ils se tiennent la main

Si vous assumez pas de jouer un couple gay ou de parler d'un couple gay dans vos série épargnez nous la condescendance merci

Si vous rajoutez une nymphomane qui tripote les mecs quand ils sont bourrés et qui donc est censé etre le ressort comique de la serie STOP !! 2020 les gars 2020 la Thailande a vraiment de gros efforts à faire pour se sortir les doigts de la culture du viol !! Non ce n'est pas culturel c'est juste inacceptable même si c'est une femme qui s'en rend coupable !!

Conclusion : passez votre chemin c'est financé par un clinique pour les soins de la peau et c'est bien tout ce que c'est une grosse pub !!!

I put rewatch ONE because Dramalist doesn't accept we advice not to rewatch it by putting a ZERO

This series was absolute bull shit for so many reasons

First of all its not a BL series so i dont know where this idea came from - all the two leads talked about was his scalp treatment there was absolutely no romantic interest or feeling's involved.

One of the female characters needed to go - she sexually assulted a man while he was drunk and they tried to pass it off as comedy - that shit aint cute it so disgusting and disturbing that they believe its fine for her to do it to him, but when its the other way round people start getting mad.

Thirdly the series ended without a conclusion- the couples didnt get together, their feelings for each other (the heterosexual couple) was not explored and in all felt like they just gave up with the series and called it a day. And to conclude this shouldnt even be called a drama/series when it was just a dermatologist advertisement

JUST A COMMERCIAL

This is an ad for a dermatologist's office, masquerading as a mini-series. The main conflicts are rashes, allergies and psoriasis.

Okay, I'm Not That Mad

This one popped up in my YouTube recommendations, and I thought, "Why not?", completely forgetting that I put this on my Not Interested list, but oh well, can't go back now. To be quite honest, I'm not that disappointed, yet, had I logged onto MDL and looked at it first, I would've never tuned in -- again, oh well. I could've stopped and dropped this, but I was quite intrigued with the BL couple (Oh, and BTW, this is a side BL, which I also didn't realize) Which is why I kept watching. Skinship is the complete opposite of what you're thinking. Instead of the meaning physical intimacy, or touching or anything else you would think Skinship means, it's actually the literal term for the number of times that the skin treatment spa was the entire plot of the series.

Let's Dive In.

Production wasn't bad, nor was it anything spectacular. This series was just pretty much a very long commercial. They only had three episodes, and out of those, they spent most of their time at the spa, the brand that was sponsoring them. Very annoying, especially when minutes are spent speaking on a topic that nobody could give two craps about. To add on, the translations weren't all that good either, especially in the first episode. I think someone just got lazy, cause it seemed like they just summarized what the actors were saying instead of giving it to us word for word. it gets a bit better as you go on, but it's still a bit bothersome. Other than that, everything else was decent.

The acting was actually really good. I think it was the better part of this series. had the acting been bad, I would've dropped, but honestly, these actors understand how to perform. I already liked Best, but I think had Shino and Chahub been given some better material to work with, they could've really shown us some incredible acting. I think they did good, but there wasn't anything to really show that they did amazing. Aumain did a good job too, so did Fame. I think she was a bit over-the-top, but it's better to give too much than to give nothing at all. Overall, the acting in this was adequate and I wouldn't mind seeing them in another BL.

I usually harped on the het couple, but in this series, I didn't really mind them. They were actually pretty cute. Them baking together was the best part. Nothing about them was annoying, or too much, or just irrelevant, I think they were a decent couple. I really enjoyed Teenoi and the doctor, except we get pretty much nothing. I love Teenoi's subtle flirtatious vibe, and I like that the doctor was more assertive (Also, Chahub is a very beautiful man, so that doesn't hurt either). They had built up this really nice connection until nothing happens. The het couple gets most (actually all) of the last episode to themselves, so we get no execution for the BL couple except at the end they drop a bomb and say that they've been dating for four months, and by then, they completely lost me. I don't know if I missed a time jump or the foreshadowing, or maybe a translation error, but I am lost with no navigation. Had this couple been given some more time to connect, they would've been more delightful to watch.

Ratings:

Story: 3.5 - Nothing. It's pretty much non-existent. (No, cause seriously, I'm racking my brain to remember the story and all I'm getting is literal brain fart).

Acting: 8.5 - Again, it was the better part of this series. everyone did a pretty good job. I can't complain. I've seen worst acting in GMMTV series (*cough, cough* Pond in FUTS), so compared to that, I'm average.

OST: 5 - Was surprised to hear some decent songs -- and they were in English..? Not anything bad, expect, I rarely ever hear English songs in Thai series, so it took me by surprise.

Rewatch value: 1 - I got more shiz to watch, but there's a less than 1% chance I'll ever come back to watch this.

Overall, I don't recommend this unless you have nothing else to do all day and have watched every other BL you can. Again, it's not the worst I've seen, but it's far from the best. It's pretty much a commercial with 75% het couple and 25% BL couple with very little build-up. I might tune into Skinship season 2, I might not. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Fraquinha

Preciso confessar que revi essa minissérie, pois a única coisa que eu conseguia lembrar era do Chahub e seu corpo escultural, ainda sem a tatuagem da costela. Ao revê-la me surpreendi ao ver o Best e a Aumain, que também estiveram ano passado no elenco de Check-out, mas venhamos e convenhamos que uma série de 3 episódios deveria ser muito boa pra marcar, e não foi o caso.

A série não é ruim, mas é fraquinha, um roteiro sem sal que mais parece o comercial da clínica dermatológica.
O jovem Teenoi tem um problema de pele, e junto com sua irmã Beauty e sua amiga amiga Minnie (que acabou de levar um pé na bunda, ao que parece pela 6948373 vez) procuram um hospital dermatológico. Lá ele é consultado pelo Dr. James, que por coincidência mora com Win, um jovem que vende doces pela internet. O destino faz com que Teenoi encomende alguns brownies mas não esteja em casa para recebê-los, atribuindo essa função à Minnie, e a partir de então os 3 moradores dessa casa passam a fazer parte com os dois moradores da outra.
O casal principal é hétero (Aumain e Best), e não vi sentido neles fingirem ser um casal pra enganar a clínica do melhor amigo e ganharem um prêmio. A personagem Minnie serviu exclusivamente para gritar e assediar todos os homens que viu. O namoro entre Dr. James e Teenoi só foi revelado no 3º ep, apesar de ter deixado algumas pistas. Não existem locações interessantes, o elenco é minúsculo, mas gostei da ost,

A série ganhou uma segunda temporada, que também vou resenhar, mas não é algo que eu gostaria de ficar revendo, não é cativante a esse ponto em nenhum sentido, a não ser a presença do Chahub.

Dear gawd, who directed this dumpster fire?

You know a series is on rough ground when once you see three of the characters on the same screen - you know you can fast forward through their whole scene and not miss a thing. My guess is that they are the comedy relief but, they are so bad it becomes near unbearable. You worry for them.

Liked three - maybe, four, of the characters. And, the overall story wasn't bad. I only stuck with it through the end to see how it all finished. It's a shame in rom-coms - characters can't disappear. Truly, what was that long red haired girl even there for? Ugh.

The doctor is in the room. He knows he is allergic to alcohol and for comedy's sake - they serve him champagne and put him in an embarrassing date situation. They risk his health and his life for laughs. That should tell you everything about this series.

This might be something you can almost pay attention to why you are cleaning. Background.
