Nadirs are the lowest points or the rock-bottoms of something and these for me are the lowest points of all the BL series I watched in 2024. I did not distinguish by number as they all are equally bathos. One, however, is the worst for me.

RISER MUSIC Introduces PROJECT JASP.ER!
As 2024 winds down, RISER MUSIC, a record label under GMMTV, is setting the stage for an electrifying start to 2025 with the debut of their newest boy group: PROJECT JASP.ER. This dynamic foursome—Joong Archen, Aou Thanaboon, Santa Pongsapak, and Pond Naravit have already captured our hearts in some of the the most popular series in BL history (“Fish Upon the Sky” staring Pond, “Vice Versa” featuring Aou, and “Hidden Agenda” starring Joong are three of my favorite comfit shows while Santa is featured in “Between Us” – a midquel to “Until We Meet Again”) and now their set to set those hearts on fire with their music.
“Love Sick” Series Review (Ep.1 to 15)
I hate to be so brutally honest, but this is one of the worst BLs of 2024. Literally, everything about this series, except perhaps the acting, was uninspiring. Although the young performers did a ‘yeoman’s job’ in trying to keep this shipwreck afloat, they alone could not salvage this complete mess from sinking. Honestly, to say otherwise, is living in a fantasy-land and not dealing with any sense of reality. It is a tepid story with a fragmented screenplay, ineptly directed, disjointedly executed, and undoubtedly should never have been (re)made. The only plus about this series literally is that they had the appropriate aged actors and actresses for the roles. They were young, attractive, innocent in real life, and tried their best to make sense of a story that was essentially senseless. Full disclosure, I did not watch the first ‘Love Sick’, so this was all ‘new’ to me. Thus, I cannot compare it to the original. Besides, this is a stand-alone production and ought to be judged on its own merits or faults.

“The Renovation” Series Review (Ep.1 & 2)
This is romantic imagery at its best. I thoroughly enjoyed this series and did not see it as bad as some comments about this series have stated. While I am hardly one to dispute another person’s opinion of a series, this one, I think, was misunderstood. It is a gay soap-opera, not meant to be deep or intense. I loved it because it is not pretentious in any way. What you see is literally what you get. A stardust between two guys who found each other at exactly the right time in their lives. Will it work out? Will it last? Who knows, but it sure was a fun romp. The story itself is congenial, entertaining, and enjoyable. Nothing more and does not pretend to be anything but that.
