Guilty pleasures, cheese & bad ones
No order since most of it will be bad, average af (or kinda good, will try to keep those ones higher)

1. Together with Me
Thai Drama - 2017, 13 episodes
A bit more drama than I can enjoy, but it IS a drama so. Most of the drama was believable enough I guess?
The actors are pretty funny, great and have great chemistry. They seem like two dumbasses, in a good way. Not the best show and a shit-ton of drama, but these actors make it fun regardless.
(EDIT) I remembered the creepy pedoish doctor guy and the teen looking one......... IT'S CREEPY AF. Lowered the score more cuz of it..........

2. Star and Sky: Star in My Mind | Sky in Your Heart
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes

Really like the character of Kluen.Kinda cheesy, awful sound editing but no sound effects. Also no sex every episode trope.

3. Lovely Writer
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
NEED TO REWATCH AND RESCORE
TOO. MANY. SFX. Especially the first few episodes. Like damn, just shut up ffs... Also, distracting music... too loud in general...
Amazing acting from Poompat (Gene). Not a doormat of an introvert... he frickin fight back and uses logic and brain cells for once in BL history. -
4. Same Difference
Japanese Movie - 2014
It is what it is...... judge me, this show is stupid and I like it.

5. Dark Blue Kiss
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
Watched: 4 times (Only binge Sun Mork parts.)
The actors seem chill and have good body language. Some misunderstanding as plot devices. Rain x Mannow was kinda cute also, l liked that they didn't make everyone gay at least.
Skipped the main MM pairings after a couple episodes

6. TharnType
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
Watched: 4 times
Possessive, aggressive and overall abusive relationship all things considered. But the issue is character consistency...
Some parts of the scripts are honestly not bad, but what ruins it is Type's out of character moments. And A LOT of scenes feel out of order, which completely ruins the pacing (and changing the scene order + adding a few earlier scenes might have made the shows not too bad...)
Type should be stubborn, rash and sharp-tongued character, not a straight up aggressive and weirdly possessive bully. And if he is meant to be like that, the author needs to write better characters (not even morally grey, he flips from 1 to 100 too fast).

7. 2 Moons 2: The Series
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes

I like Forth Beam? Only binge their parts but skip the cringey, forced parts of their pairing.
The show itself is awfully boring. Cheese town fujoshi bait.

8. HIStory: Stay Away From Me
Taiwanese Special - 2017, 4 episodes
It's trash. Just a guilty pleasure.
-
9. Niti Man Society and Lover
Thai Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Not that revolutionary, really basic school plot, some
stupiddrama (that I realize was created by the other characters on purpose at times, so wasn't too annoyed).
Bbomb starts pretty confident, then he turns into a whiny, doubt-filled and jealous guy over barely anything... Kinda worked, kinda didn't, unsure.Jin starts more abraisif and turns a bit too emotional over little things. Also unsure if that seemed in character and realistic enough. Probably is. They both felt more grounded that I assumed they would be, all things considered, just a tad off somehow.
Liked how basic is was I guess? Gonna have to rewatch this in the future, if I feel like it. -
10. My Engineer
Thai Drama - 2020, 14 episodes
KING x RAM pairing. Kinda Duen x Bon too, but mister hot head was badly handled after a few episodes, much like in TharnType
Kinda hate the show,'s vibe but the pairing had good potential if you remove the HUGE fetishizing surrounding their particular couple, which is my main issue with the show, apart from the shit dubbing of the poor chinese guy.

11. Theory of Love
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
It was cheesy, bland like most rom coms, but alright. With any other actors, I probably wouldn't have liked much though, they kinda saved it.
-
12. 2gether The Series
Thai Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
Some out of character moments for Sarawat as episodes went. Last episodes kinda episodes suck and the pacing is all over the place.
After a third rewatch, it kinda gets more and more boring after the 5 first episodes more or less. Had to stop my rewatch I got so bored. The acting is fine and I think fits the characters, but the dialogue, or something feels off and ruins it for me.
Also, people seem to say it's bromance, but I honestly don't see why it is, since BL isn't about making out, having sex every episode or fujoshi cheese bait. Romance and sex aren't always tied.
