GMMTV’s attempts to quantify their queer production is indeed praiseworthy. But can quantification guarantee quality as well? With 32 dramas up for production next year and quite a few from the 2025 Lineup, time management will be a big problem. Also, they have been recruiting new talents big time, but can they successfully manage these many artists and create new content for all of them? That remains to be seen!

GMMTV2026 Magic Vibes Maximized- PART I
As expected, “GMMTV2026 Magic Vibes Maximized” was a grand event; not just in terms of event planning, but we are talking about the amount of shows too. GMMTV announced 35 new series, 22 of which are BL, 8 are GL and 5 other series. It is obvious that following the legalization of same-sex marriage, GMMTV is diving deeper into the market of queer representation. It is making them more money than heterosexual romances, and they are bringing in more talents to develop steadfast queer oriented content!
BL Week in Review
My favorite Thai company, GMMTV, announced two highly anticipated series that are going to premiere soon. “Burnout Syndrome” and “Melody of Secrets” have been on my must-watch list since I saw their mock trailers at previous lineup events, and I’m so curious to see how they play out. “Burnout Syndrome” starts on Wednesday, and “Melody of Secrets” begins on December 5. I have a good feeling about these two.
BL Mini-Bytes
We had quite a few surprising announcements last week, with the most anticipated one making it to the frontline. Let’s cluster them together and check out the exclusives so far!
Toxic BLs That Will Leave You Shocked Beyond Your Imagination! (2025)
Toxic BLs are on the rise and literally the Chinese industry is flaunting the genre, despite the existent censorship. We have shows buzzing with toxic characters who are obsessive and hot-tempered. They are mostly handsome, filthy rich and possessive as hell. At times, it makes for a fine watching experience; the rest of time, you spend your time cursing at their intrusiveness. We have lined up the best storylines with such obtuse characters!

“Rearrange” Series Review (Ep.1 to 10)
There is no doubt in my mind that some may find this series entertaining and maybe even cute. Unfortunately, I am not in that category. For me, this was yet another in a long string of endless high school cliché dramas that was unoriginal and trite and filled with every conceivable trope you can think of. Admittedly, it started out interestingly enough. But here again, it moved too inextricably and set up a false premise that from a logical perspective did not make any sense that was never explained nor fully clarified.

BL Week in Review
This week, I had to make some hard decisions. There are so many fun things airing on Fridays and Saturdays, but I’ve vowed that until my novel is done, I can only watch two series per day. Hard decisions were made. I am putting Goddess Bless You From Death and Interminable Thailand briefly on hold while That Summer and The Wicked Game finish. I decided not to watch the three toxic series that began on Saturday. They included: To My Shore, Tide of Love, and Gu Jin Nan Qiu.
