“Male Entertainer” Series Review (Ep. 1 & 2)
This is a brilliant work of art. I detest calling something a masterpiece, but this comes so close to what that definition truly means. It is like nothing you have ever seen before.

“Fahlanruk The Series” First Impressions (Ep.1 to 3)
University is where young adults define their personalities; where they learn what they want and what they don’t and on Fahlanruk, it seems a bit more complicated. Main character and on campus Mr.Popularity Fahlan (Tonkhao Chayuth) seems to be the name on everyone’s tongue. People gossip, worship, speculate, and lust after him throughout the series. Created by the Thai company Safe Studio under the direction of Chik Sakon and K Chainarong, this off the wall ensemble drama focuses on the concept of “Is Friends with Benefits possible for two lovers?”

“180 Degree Longitude Passes Through Us” Series Review (Ep.3 to 8)
The Thai drama 180 Degree Longitude Passes Through Us has ended, and it has taken my heart with it. When a series strikes a chord within me, I am very vocal about it, writing multiple pieces hoping others will take the time to discover the magic. 180 Degree Longitude is one of those series, but for the final review, I will simply focus on the people in it, the connection between them, and why these connections touched me.

“On Cloud 9” Series Review (Ep.3 to 6)
I have to say first this was the most beautiful drama I have seen in a very long time. The cinematography was breathtaking. The filming was exquisitely done. The overall series was stunning and meaningful. The actors played their parts with such commitment. I cannot say enough about this series. The cast and crew. Bravo!!
“Unforgotten Night” Series Review (Ep.3 to 12)
The idea of a one-night stand is that it’s the moment when you choose to do something that’s outside of your normal. That choice shouldn’t normally have any baring on the rest of your life because a random sexual encounter shouldn’t define you as a person; which is why I find it so ironic that for Kim (Ton Saran), it does. This is for me a great indicator of what “Unforgotten Night” offers on the whole. Beautiful to look at but lacking actual substance.

“What If” Series Review (Ep.1 to 5)
‘What if’ is an age-old question, a simple two words often full of regret. As we age, we look back on life and wonder about what we’ve done and what we could have done differently.
“War of Y-New Ship” Series Review (Ep.1 to 5)

“21 Days Theory” Series Review (Ep.3 & 4)
Created by Rookie Thailand, the sleeper hit “21 Day Theory” was startlingly refreshing and surprising.
“Love in the Air” First Impressions (Ep.1 & 2)
From the moment the first episode of the Thai BL Love in the Air opened, the lyrics from the 1983 song “It’s Raining Men” by The Weather Girls started playing in my head. Mainly because of the characters’ names and the fateful connection they seem to have with rain.
