The BL genre continues to explode as more and more shows are produced each year. When I started watching, I felt like I was drowning in university stories, but there’s plenty of variety to choose from these days. In this post, I share 6 iconic shows that had genre-wide impact, each contributing to the landscape of BLs today.

Top Ten BL Dramas- My Personal Favorites (2025)
It has been excruciating year, in terms of BL production. The Asian subcontinent is churning shows & movies at a speed that is incomprehensible. It could be attributed to the fact that Thailand as the largest producer of queer content has found the liberty to legalize same-sex marriage. It was difficult to choose a select few for this list; I had to let go of quite a few shows to compile this feature. But here we are, so enjoy the feast!

BL Week in Review
KristSingto and EarthMix were both fabulous, and I’m so glad I got to participate in that experience! I discussed it fully last Tuesday during BL Week in Review, which is always a fun time.

BL Week in Review
Eight series ended this week, and we only have one new series beginning next week. I think we are finally getting some breathing room for a minute.
I enjoyed “The Proper Way to Write Love”, “Memoir of Rati”, and “The Promise of the Soul” enough to recommend them here. Each series had a unique premise and was easy to follow. I believe “The Proper Way to Write Love” had the best execution, but “Memoir of Rati” certainly follows close behind. Anyway, they would make a fun binge session for a weekend where you just need to relax.
BL Week in Review
School wore me out this week, and consequently, I find myself here on Saturday evening, playing catch up. I looked at my social media and realized I hadn’t posted any reviews most of the week, which is unusual for me.

BL Week in Review
There are twenty-five series currently airing that are accessible to international viewers, plus a variety of reel series, and I have chosen to watch thirteen of them. I guess that’s what happens when the BL flood begins.
