Last week was a tad exhausting with copious amounts of exclusives from the Japanese industry. Thai counterpart didn’t want to be tethered either, so we were flanking news updates from close quarters.

My Favorite Asian BLs/GLs So Far (2024)- Part IV
The theme for this feature is “Angst, suspicion, thrill and homophobia”
Those are a lot of tropes to club in a single feature but subjectively, they are some of the most trending topics in the BL industry in the current times. We will be touching base with each of them, because it is a given that more the thrill & angst, more riveting the story turns.

GMMTV Lineup 2025- “Riding the Wave”
As expected, GMMTV’s Lineup 2025 was a sumptuous affair with new pairings added, older pairings getting new shows and some surprise additions that might shock you. The most shocking aspect being the launch of 20 new series, out which seventeen are BL series, two are GL series & only one heterosexual romance. With same sex marriage being legalized in January, 2025; GMMTV is betting on the popularity of queer productions. This lineup could very well chart their priorities in near future. Apart from some remaining projects from the 2024 Lineup (Thame – Po (13 Dec 2024), My Golden Blood, Ossan’s Love Thailand, Revamp The Undead Story, Sweet Tooth Good Dentist, The Ex-Morning), we have19 shows to dissect, so let’s get moving!

“Reverse 4 You” Series Review (Ep.4 to 8)
“Reverse 4 You” is an interesting take on “star-crossed lovers” who have to overcome their fate and find a way to be together, not just with each other, but with their loved ones. I believe that the show would have benefitted from telling stories of Jattawa (Mae Methakarn Anektanasuwan), Vivi (Manao Natnicha Polsombat) and Four’s (Christine Gulasatree Michalsky) past and/or alternative lives to drive the story and add tension, instead of following just one timeline, because it left the ending feeling too rushed and the pay off was lacking because some crucial things were not explained or dealt with. With enough care and thought, this could have been a very compelling series, but it because boring very quickly due to the writers focusing on all the wrong aspects of it.

“Pluto Series” First Impressions (Ep.1 to 4)
When I was a little kid, we only knew about our nine planets. Since then, we’ve downgraded Pluto but have discovered that other solar systems and stars are common. So life is probably quite prevalent- Buzz Aldrin

Last week was rather dull and slow paced, with quite a few production houses dropping teaser or trailers. While we welcomed the lazy hours, it might be the calm before the storm.
