Our Skyy 2 (2023)

A lot of wasted potential

“Our Skyy 2” was meant to give us more of the good stuff (for those who – unlike me – enjoyed all the shows it was based on), but with a twist. At least that’s what I thought after watching the official trailer – which led me to believe, that some (or maybe all) episodes will be somehow connected with an overarching plot. That was proven as false very quickly; what we really got were 16 episodes of similar or lower quality than the original shows; see my thoughts on each special below - in the order in which they aired.

“Never Let Me Go” was a terrible show and its “Our Skyy 2” episodes aren’t better. For about 30 minutes of the 1st episode Phuwin’s Nueng continues to be the same annoying jerk he was for almost the entire original series, while Pond is the same boring, stiff Palm. Again, there’s no chemistry between Pond and Phuwin – something I got used to by now; GMMTV should seriously rethink pairing those two together. The twist, plot and basically only new thing this special brought – the time-travel induced role reversal – wasn’t interesting nor amusing; it wasn’t important either. Both episodes suffered from surprisingly low production quality. I rated NLMG at 2.5 (overall) and see no reason to rate the special any higher.

“Star in My Mind”. The original show wasn’t great, it was at best decent (and a good study on why communication matters in relationships), with a few finer moments (the script of the original show had much more potential; the show could have been a much better one). The special had almost no substance; fluffy, but dragged on forever and got boring very quickly. Easily forgettable piece of BL entertainment. Dunk and Joong always seem to be more interesting off screen, but at least there was something between them – not full blown chemistry, but a spark. The Satang-Winny thing came – show-wise – out of nowhere, as their characters had no interaction in the original series; it looked like an attempt to copy their good dynamic and decent chemistry from MSP. Overall rating: 7.0.

“The Eclipse” wasn’t my favorite BL (with the plot often bordering on idiocy), but Khaotung and First did a very good job there and deserved praise. Same happened with the special – which, by the way, was the first bit of “Our Skyy 2” that I enjoyed. Overall rating: a solid 8.0 for the chemistry and originality.

“Vice Versa”: the original show was okay, albeit it was a bit disappointing with the whole parallel universe thing being merely a canvas for a BL love story (rather than an important part of the story itself). I appreciated the special for standing on its own, with a self-contained small story. Jimmy and Sea look good together, but I was never fully convinced by their acting; I won’t be the first to say that they give off buddy vibes rather than BF vibes. Overall rating: 8.0.

MSP was great (I rated it at 9.5) – which can’t be said about the special. We got more of the same fluffy and cute goodness as in the original series with some minor twists and tweaks as well as some fan service added for a good measure (#TiwPorisreal). Unfortunately all of that goodness came from recycling the original show and reusing its plot. Even the title of the special – “Multiverse of Cuteness” – was misleading, as it was implying that we’ll see a different story, a new approach, familiar characters in a new setting, facing new problems etc. None of that happened, as all we got was a rehash of what we knew. We didn’t get episodes 13 and 14 of MSP; we got episodes 1-6 again, but condensed into 2 episodes. Some will say that it was great, as many have missed those characters – and now got them for 2 more episodes; other (like me) will feel disappointed by lack of any originality. Overall rating: 7.0 due to the disappointment.

“A Boss and a Babe” was a weird, partly successful attempt at comedy merged with a BL story, mixed (very poorly) with more serious stuff; tonaly the show was all over the place. The special is more consistent – It’s a comedy. It also drags a bit and feels like 1,5 episodes stretched into 2 episodes. Overall rating: 7.0.

“Bad Buddy meets ATOTS”: I won’t event try to separate the stories of episodes 13-16 of “Our Skyy 2” and will have to rate them together – which isn’t easy. “Bad Buddy” and ATOTS are wonderful (two of my all-time favorite BLs), but very different shows and merging them is a tricky business. It should happen for a reason – and I don’t see one. Pat and Pran’s plotline isn’t a continuation of “Bad Buddy” – as we already know how that story ends; this makes their part of the special seem unimportant and a bit pointless. There’s no character development and very little of what we could consider added value. OhmNanon are in good form, but have to work with too much of (deliberately) rehashed scenes and lines – hence the freshness of Pat’s and Pran’s relationship I remember from “Bad Buddy” is absent. The 4 episodes special seems much more about Tian and Phupha and their story. The script is far from being perfect, with some key issues handled in an incomprehensible way, but the main message (eventually) does come across. I got all teary during the second half of ep. 16; EarthMix did a wonderful job there, while P’Aof actually wrote a new (but not final) chapter to the Tian-Phupha story. That saved the special, making it a worthy successor to the terrific original ATOTS. Overall rating: 8.5.

Overall rating for “Our Skyy 2”: 7.0.

Sky's the Limit

I had high expectations for Our Skyy 2, too high, it turns out. I was looking forward to a continuation of stories I had come to love or at least tolerate. Unfortunately, the powers that be decided to get creative or lazy, depending on the case, with a number of these stories and those mostly failed to deliver. It's not all bad, there are some that are absolute gems, but it's not what I was hoping for and I am a bit disappointed in how it turned out.

Episodes 1 & 2 - Never Let Me Go - 5.5 Stars
Of the dramas being continued with Our Skyy 2, Never Let Me Go is my least favorite. I didn't think it was a great drama to begin with and it's one that seemed to have a pretty conclusive ending that didn't need any further embellishment so I didn't have high hopes for these two episodes. That turned out to be a very good thing as they were completely underwhelming and frankly, quite tedious to watch.

The story just seemed ridiculous. To go from the more serious tone of Never Let Me Go with being hunted down and trying to survive to these two episodes where we suddenly have fortune tellers and magical bracelets and curses and jumping through time, it was incredibly jarring. There are far too many plot holes, too many questions left unanswered and not nearly enough time to properly flesh everything out.

The few things that I liked were that Palm and Nueng did communicate. Not necessarily well all the time, but they made the effort. It was certainly an improvement over their almost total lack of communication in NLMG. Despite not feeling like it really fit with the drama, I was intrigued by the historical setting. If the special had fit in better with the original drama, I think I could have liked it. The power swap was interesting with Palm suddenly being the rich and powerful one and Nueng as a servant. It created a different dynamic between them at times though I think it could have been played with to a greater extent. I liked the side couples of Phum/Petch and Kan/Kla. I found them more compelling than Palm and Nueng, particularly as Petch and Kla. And while they couldn't be together due to the time they lived in, it was gratifying to see their descendants able to be together without fear.

These two episodes were just a mess. They didn't add anything of value to the story and just felt really out there and disconnected from the drama. If you're like me and not a fan of Never Let Me Go, don't waste your time on these episodes, you won't be missing anything.

Episodes 3 & 4 - Star In My Mind - 7.0 stars
Between Star in My Mind and Sky in Your Heart, I much preferred Sky in Your Heart. So going into watching these two episodes, I didn't have high expectations. Imagine my surprise when I found that I actually overall enjoyed them and found them equal parts funny and endearing.

These two episodes are essentially just fluff without a whole lot of substance. Nothing dramatic happens, it's basically just Khabkluen and Daonuea being in love and telling each other how much they love the other. I liked that what was showcased was a healthy relationship. They actually communicate with each other and when things turn romantic, Khabkluen makes sure that Daonuea is okay with what is happening.

Their friends were entertaining. Their antics and the way they teased their two friends was amusing. I also liked the way Typhoon was handled. They could have made him sad or bitter, unable to move on from Daonuea, but instead they not only showed him moving on but even revealed that he was able to be friends with Daonuea.

These two episodes exceeded my expectations which, to be fair, wasn't hard since they were pretty low. Still, they made me laugh and smile and delivered some good moments. I think they demonstrated how to write a romance without the need of a lot of skinship to distract from the substandard plot or characters. I would recommend these episodes as they just tell a feelgood story.

Episodes 5 & 6 - The Eclipse - 8.5 stars
The Eclipse is one of my favorite BL dramas and I was really looking forward to these two episodes. I found what they did interesting and creative and even though it wasn't a hit with every scene, the characters are what really made these two extra episodes special. It was the characters that I fell in love with in the drama and they are what made me really enjoy this continuation of their stories.

Of the episodes that have aired thus far, I felt these two had the best combination of story and fluff. I thought going with a continuation of Wat's moviemaking was a unique choice since it played a relatively minor role in the original, but a good one. The scenes with the characters imagining themselves in various movies was incredibly cheesy, but also somewhat entertaining. It does feel a bit rushed at times, but with just two episodes, they didn't have a ton of time to fully flesh out the story and it's still good as is.

I did like that there was a clear progression in the characters' growth. They were not exactly the same as they were in the original. I liked that Akk and Aye were shown as having to actually work at their relationship. They were always a study in opposites, but with the drama from the series behind them, that comes to the fore, and they need to learn to communicate and compromise. I do wish there was more of a focus on them learning to communicate. Akk keeps things bottled up and there's no way for Aye to learn from or try to rectify the problem when he's being tight lipped. Kisses are great, but they don't solve the problem. On the flip side, I liked that Thua did communicate his feelings to Kan. There was still the element there that kisses solve problems, but I felt it was a better progression than with Akk and Aye.

I love the friendships here, especially between Akk, Wat, and Kan. The way they support each other is just so wholesome and I really love that even though Akk and Kan aren't into the indie movies that Wat is, they are still willing to encourage and support him in his dream.

My biggest qualm, honestly, was Aye pretending not to remember it was Akk's birthday. I know he was trying to surprise him, but every time I see that come up in dramas, I can't help but think it's just a recipe for disaster as it nearly always leads to issues.

I really enjoyed this special. Some of the lines from it just really hit home, like when Aye talks about the difference between "place" and "space". I think its safe to say that The Eclipse and many of these other dramas became a space for a lot of us where we feel warmth and love and I think that is just beautiful. This was a wonderful addition to The Eclipse story that you don't want to miss.

Episodes 7 & 8 - Vice Versa - 8.5 stars
Of the stories told thus far, this was the most wholesome and the most well done. It had twists and turns that were fairly well done and entertaining, good character development, good music and generally just told a very endearing story. I wasn't sure what I would think of this one based off the trailer but it completely surpassed my expectations.

I loved that the story didn't go where I thought it would. I honestly thought it was going to revolve around Tess or Pakorn's love child and Talay and Puen left having to raise the kid. And that's certainly the initial impression. But then there's the twist that he is actually Tup's nephew and he and Tou had the brilliant idea of having the kid pretend to be Talay and Puen's son to help them reconnect since work has been pulling them apart. And then there's an added twist when it comes out that Puen is in on it and a further twist when Talay overhears Puen, Tup, and Tou's conversation and puts the pieces together. He and Jigsaw plotting together was the cutest thing ever. Though I would have loved to know how Tup convinced his sister to let him kidnap her kid for who knows how long.

Again, everything about this special was so wholesome. I appreciated that Talay and Puen recognized that there was a problem and actively sought to fix it. Focusing too much on work and neglecting a partner is a fairly common issue, I feel, and I liked that it was addressed. I loved the creativity of the calendar and giving each day of the month a theme of sorts. And then when Jigsaw landed in their laps, they pretty much took it in stride. They worked together to take care of him and even when he went missing at the zoo, they really didn't blame each other. Things weren't blown out of proportion, they each took responsibility for the fact that they got distracted and apologized to Jigsaw for neglecting him.

I was impressed with the character growth of Talay and Puen. It's nothing astronomic, but it's there and with such a limited time frame, it was well done. I appreciated that they communicated with each other and had an actually healthy relationship. I loved getting to see more of Tup and Tou in this universe. They added a good dose of entertainment.

This was an excellent follow-up to the drama. I really did enjoy every moment of it and any complaints I might have are miniscule. I loved the relationships both romantic and platonic, the family dynamic between Talay, Puen, and Jigsaw, the realistic challenges faced, and the way that the characters interacted. This is one that I may come back to in the future.

Episodes 9 & 10 - My School President - 7.0 stars
There is one reason and one reason only these two episodes are getting as high a rating as they are and that is solely because of the cast. I had serious concerns after seeing the trailer for MSP and those concerns were absolutely valid. This special could have been so much more than it was and I'm truly sad at the lost opportunity.

I cannot even begin to explain how lazy the premise of this felt. They could have jumped to them in college or after college, though age wise that would have been a stretch, or, heck, the summer after they graduate. Just about anything else they could have come up with would have been more interesting and creative than what we got. It's not a word for word or scene for scene copy, but it's close enough that I struggled to stay invested because it's already been done.

Everything felt rushed, probably because they were trying to fit a 12 episode drama into 2 episodes. It also felt choppy for that same reason. The continuity was lacking and it just felt like we were jumping from one scene to the next. There needed to be a bit more filler to join everything together. I also felt like the quality was just lower. The music was pretty decent, but there were multiple times where the instrumental parts overwhelmed the vocals to the point they were very hard to hear. There was also the ballroom dance exam scene which dragged on far too long and it was painfully clear they hadn't had nearly enough time to practice because their movements were so stiff and clunky.

Now when I say the cast was the one saving grace, I am not even kidding. They were literally the only reason I persisted through both episodes. They are all so charismatic and they do have that ability to draw you in. But even they seemed to be lacking the energy that was present in the drama. Everything just felt subdued. I think I really noticed that with Sound and Win. They were such firecracker characters in MSP and it felt like the fire had gone out of them and they were a shadow of their alter universe egos. Same with Tinn and Gun to an extent. They just didn't have that same spark. I did like the Tiwson and Por got to be realized as a fully fledged couple. Their interactions were adorable and I'm happy they got more screen time. I do think trying to throw in Khajorn and Phat as another couple, albeit more of just a suggested one, was unnecessary.

The one other aspect that I actually quite enjoyed was the inclusion of other BLs in their MV there at the end. I thought that was cute and clever.

These episodes have some cute and funny/cheesy moments. They do change some things up so it's not a carbon copy of MSP, but if they wanted to go with an alternate universe story, there were so many more creative ways they could have gone about it. I didn't hate it, but neither did I love it and I think I'll always be left thinking of what could have been.

Episodes 11 & 12 - A Boss and a Babe - 7.5 stars
Starting this drama, I had a moment of dread thinking they were going with a body swap story or even another alternate universe a la MSP. However, I was pleasantly surprised when that was not the case. Considering that I wasn't a huge fan of the drama, I wasn't sure what to expect from this, but it was worth watching.

One of the biggest problems I had with the drama was the almost complete lack of sensical plot. Here, there was a more clearly defined plot and it worked pretty well. The focus on getting Gun to understand that he didn't have to be so overbearing and harsh towards his employees and that work is for work hours allowed us to get to know the characters better, Gun especially. It also allowed for some genuinely comedic moments with Cher acting as the boss and Gun as the intern.

Character wise, I liked getting to know Gun better, his way of thinking and perceiving people and actions. I also appreciated getting to know Cher more. He's more perceptive than you would think and sometimes his antics can make one forget that he's actually pretty smart. While that's not shown extensively here, he does have his moments to show that intelligence. And the length he went to both to help Gun destress and show him that he needed to be more attuned to his employees feelings and needs showed how much he cared. It was very wholesome to see. And of course he got to have fun bossing his boyfriend around and getting to be the boss for a day, but it's pretty clear Gun doesn't really mind. I also enjoyed the return of Cher's friends, especially Three and Zo. That scene with them pretending to fight was pretty entertaining. The group's friendship was one of the positives from the drama and it remained so here. The fact that they were so supportive of Cher, even agreeing to his ridiculous plan, just showcased that they're the kind of friends everyone should have.

I think this addition to My Skyy 2 is my favorite thus far. It was pretty much what I was hoping for from the entirety of the series and I have my fingers crossed that they won't annihilate Bad Buddy or Thousand Stars and will stick to this formula. I enjoyed the fact that these episodes were more than just pure fluff, they actually had some depth to them. It was a good way to conclude their story and it seems fitting that they're sent off with a dash of humor.

Episodes 13 to 16 - Bad Buddy x A Tale of Thousand Stars - 8.5 stars
As these two stories were so tightly intertwined, I'm going to rate them together as it's difficult if not impossible to separate them. As every series previously had their own two episodes, I was not expecting the combining of these two and while there are aspects that I ended up liking, in the end, I do feel it was unnecessary and I don't understand why it was done.

These are two of my favorite BL dramas, so I was very much looking forward to the continuation of them. However, I found myself in many ways disappointed, particularly with the continuation of Bad Buddy. Rather than continuing where the drama left off, it decided to pick up after Pat and Pran pretend to break up. With all that goes on, it didn't really make sense from the stand point of them having to hide their relationship because they don't really seem to be trying that hard to hide it. And then trying to combine their story with that of Tian and Phupha's felt forced. There didn't seem to be a purpose for combining these two stories which made it harder for me to get on board with. After Episode 13 which was focused on Pat and Pran, the remaining three episodes felt much more focused on Tian and Phupha which means we didn't get to see as much of Pat and Pran as I would have liked. There also felt like there were multiple discrepancies between A Tale of Thousand Stars and these episodes which really pulled me out of the moment. The disagreements between Tian and Phupha felt poorly developed, ridiculous and not really in line with their characters.

Episodes 15 and 16 are where things picked up and I started to enjoy it more with Episode 16 giving us a solid ending. The story got a bit repetitive at times with them getting lost, but once that part was over, we started getting some of the sweet scenes that were generally lacking in the first two episodes. Episode 16 was my favorite both due to the play, which was very fun to watch and made me weirdly emotional, I don't know why, as well as Phupha giving Tian their thousandth star which was incredibly romantic. I also found it entertaining the nods to they gave to Bad Buddy between Tian and Phupha with Phupha asking Tian to rate his "performance" and the ending which was a combination of the endings from both Bad Buddy and Tale of Thousand Stars.

Character development felt a bit slim with all parties. Bad Buddy mostly because they didn't really have any way to grow since we already know how things end between them so it left them a bit stuck. I also didn't feel it much with Tale of Thousand Stars since I didn't feel like the characters were quite the same as they were in the series so there was a bit of a disconnect for me.

This joint venture started on a bit of a low note, but managed to end on a high note and served as a fitting conclusion for Bad Buddy/Tale of Thousand Stars and for Our Skyy 2 as a whole.

What a load of... whatever

The ratings are at best an attempt to average what would have been widely disparate scores across the 8 stories. And the scores are all dragged down by poor, sloppy writing that is out to cash in on the leads' popularity. The writers need to take time out and understand what quality writing really is because without that, even the most loyal fans will have their patience tested.

Never Let Me Go - Awful script that succeeded in making history look cringe-worthy, and continued stiff acting from Phuwin (who can speak fluent English but can't emote to save his life; not sure what his fans see in him) and Pond (whose ruffian look should really serve him better in mainstream non-BL genres). 3/10

Star in my Mind - if NLMG was awful, this takes awfulness a notch higher. What was the writer thinking?? Perhaps the original was already messy and thin, and little could be done to create any meaningful arc here. Archen should really pair with someone else because you cannot take Dunk and his very odd lips and smile seriously. It will be difficult to see Dunk mature into more adult roles. 2/10

Vice Versa - This continued the original characters' passion about movie-making, and gave everyone a fun time putting together a short film for competition. It is A LOT more than what the first 2 stories tried to do (did they even try?). Khaotung and First are not your typical leading men, but they let their chemistry and acting do the talking. Will be interesting to see how these two boyish actors grow into more mature roles. 5/10

The Eclipse - The original was a weird premise; but at least these 2 episodes tried to build a story of what it means to raise a kid as gay parents. Jimmy and Sea were rather good in their baby-sitting roles although the ending was abrupt and illogical. I really wished the kid had something to do with the alternate dimension that was the premise of the original. 6/10

My School President - This was a sloppy script. Just because Fourth and Gemini are the biggest stars right now after the original hit, it doesn't mean reversing their roles without any reason or change is excusable. Lazy, convenient and presumptuous, and the side couples just got together like it was the most natural thing to do. Thankfully, Gemini and Fourth continue to show us what raw talents they really are, and at 19, sky's the limit indeed. 5/10

A Boss and a Babe - This one tried too hard to send a message about corporate politics and hierarchy, but ended with nothing new to say which we don't already know. Book tries too hard to be cute and a contrast to the stern-faced Force, so it comes across too contrived at times. Perhaps it is because Book is really older than Force but made to play someone several years younger. I like them separately, but not sure if this ship should continue to sail,. 5/10

Bad Buddy - As a standalone, it is extremely nostalgic because I've not seen a more successful pairing since MaxTul. Whatever the recent saga between the two may be, and whether real or forced by the company, Nanon and Ohm are such talented actors who can just respond to scenes and characters with their natural body language. It will really be a shame if they never share the screen again. However nonsensical the story may be, watching them play off each other is worth the time. 7/10

A Tale of a Thousand Stars - I like how Earth and Win have gotten so comfortable with each other over the years, and Win is always a natural when it comes to emoting. Like all the rest, the script is sloppy (the reason for their supposed tension is childish, even inconceivable), and I realise I miss all the other characters from the original, especially Nam the doctor (Nammon) and Longtae (Khaotung). 6/10

Bad Buddy x ATOATS - If you only have time for a few episodes, or if you really want to not waste time forwarding the draggy episodes, then perhaps just watch these last 4 episodes of the entire series. If only for some of the most legendary BL ships there has ever been, or will ever be, savor the ease with which these 4 actors play their parts - something of an acting class for the others.

ATOTS win best Our Skyy Episode (As I knew it would be)

Gosh, I was looking forward to Our Skyy 2 since it was announced, and boy was I surprised. Not really with my favorite OS2 episode (ATOTS) cause it will forever and always be a banger, but for the others, I was pleasantly surprised. I was worried that many of these would be full of wasted potential (ehh, not too far off), but honestly, it did a good job coming full circle with the previous story and the one we see in OS2. Our Skyy 2 takes us into a further developed story of some of our favorite GMMTV series couples. Looking at it from a broader spectrum, Our Skyy was actually pretty good. Just some storylines didn't work, and others were just flat-out given no second thought.

Let's Dive In.

I'll go from least favorite to the most favorite couple (which the favorite is no surprise for anyone).

8. Star In My Mind - Daonuea and Khabkluen

The 2 episodes we got of them in this was by far better than what we got in their original series. The only reason I place them last is because they still failed in a lot of places, like being way too simple in its storytelling when there were so many cool areas they could've touched on. Like, a story where they pretend to hate each other to prank their friends..? Okay, if that's the best you can think of I guess. But I did like some aspects like Kluen making the ring to give to Nuea, and their time together in the tent. And Joong and Dunk gave so much chemistry in this. It actually made me excited to watch Hidden Agenda, because hopefully, they give me more than what I received in SIMM. But like I said, it was just the worst out of all the couples in terms of story and plot. Also, Joong learned how to kiss a cheek instead of sniffing it, so that was nice. I'll give it a 6/10 overall.

7. Bad Buddy - Pat and Pran

Not including the crossover with ATOTS, the first few parts of their story were so boring that I literally tuned out and then a second later they were in Pha Pan Dao and I was like, "Huh?". I think the setup was just not very entertaining, not until you get into the actual crossover, and then I started liking their story more, which is the only reason BB isn't last. I really enjoyed Pat in this more than anything, I liked the time with Phu and the good connection they created. I just think Ohm is a fantastic actor, and he plays the role of Pat so well. I think there are some points where the feud or whatever happened with the actual actors in real life kind of crossed over a little, and some parts were pretty awkward. The ending, however, was probably the best that we got from them. The play, and the kiss on the couch as very authentically their characters, and it was a nice feeling. We also got a glimpse of Drake and Jimmy, and the iconic GL couple so that was also really cute, too bad Jimmy and Drake's characters actually never get together. I'll give it a 7/10 overall.

6. Never Let Me Go - Nuengdiao and Palm

For someone like me who dropped NLMG, I loved this so freaking much. This also just goes to show that GMMTV could make a banger historical-BL plot, so hopefully we'll get that in the near future. But seriously, I loved seeing historic Thailand since I've never seen a historical Thai series ever. I enjoyed the switch of Palm being rich and mighty while Nuengdiao was the poor slave who had to work for him. Them trying to figure out how to get back to the present was entertaining, I loved seeing Pawin again, was a little down that we don't see Chimon or Perth's characters since they were also another reason I tried finishing the series, but oh well. Phuwin and Pond's chemistry is pretty good in this too, they did a better job here than in the original series. Overall, I'll give it a 7.5/10.

5. My School President - Tinn and Gun

I was expecting to like this a lot more than I did, but I was a little disappointed at the role switch instead of building their story further. Would've much rather seen them in college thriving than see their entire story re-told with Tinn and Gun switching roles. But even with that being said, it was super cute seeing them act out the opposite role, including the side characters like Sound and Win and Tiw and Por. But we get no kiss, and some of the parts that I would've put in to be re-told weren't included, which was a bummer. But Gemini and Fourth are too cute of a pairing to put them any lower than this. They still have such good chemistry and were just perfect. I'll give it a 7.5/10 overall.

4. The Eclipse - Akk and Aye

This story is only not lower on the list because Khaotung and First's chemistry is literally so good that it needs to be studied. If ATOTS wasn't on this list, I would say Khaotung and First have the best chemistry I've seen in a GMMTV pairing ever. It's just that I think the story was a little boring. Them going on the trip was cute, but the plot revolving around them making a film was not my forte. Lots of empty space where they were talking about nonsense I could care less about. But also, I got to see the loves of my life, Kan and Thua, and they were just the cutest things ever, so nothing could make me mad. Also, there were some sound problems, like the music would be way louder than their voices during some scenes, and it threw me off a bit. But overall, I'll give them an 8/10, solely because First and Khaotung have such soul-crushing chemistry (ya'll saw that ending kiss too, right?).

3. A Boss and A Babe - Gun and Cher

So surprised, but I really liked their story. They worked on issues that weren't previously worked on in the series, so they were able to develop their characters more, and it came to a beautiful full circle. They also told it in a fun way cause it would've probably been boring any other way to tell it. I have nothing more to say than that it was cute, it was fun, it was entertaining, and seeing Cher try to be stern and stoic was adorable. Overall, I'll give it a 9/10.

2. Vice Versa - Puen and Talay

IDK what their actual names are and not their names when they were in the other universe, so I'll go with the names listed on MDL, so bear with me. But even with me not remembering their names, I absolutely LOVED this. Maybe because Jigsaw was the cutest in the history of cute, but I loved seeing how domestic they were. Even before Jigsaw came into play, I loved that they had designated days to do different things. One thing I'm a sucker for is domestic love, and they gave me just that. And when you add Jigsaw, they just look like the happiest little family on the earth, It also made me hope for a future series with dads as the main character, and I need that immediately. The only disappointing thing was that Jigsaw wasn't one of their accident babies while they were in another universe. I think that would've been fun to see play out. Also, Neo was THE STINKING CUTEST OH MY GOD. Overall I'll give it a 9.5/10.

1. A Tale of Thousand Stars - Tian and Phu

Is it a surprise to anybody that their story was the best? not even just my own opinion, but I legit think their story was the best told than any of the others. we develop the characters further, we also see their relationship develop, we see their communication develop, and their conflict be resolved perfectly. Wow, don't Earth and Mix make a perfect on-screen couple, I mean I don't know what it is about them, but they bring me to tears each and every time. Phu crying while prosing to Tian... yeah, I was a puddling mess. They were just gorgeous, inside and out. It was also so nice to see the village again and Tian teaching, and Yod. This was the perfect bow to tie up their already perfect story. My favorite part was definitely seeing Pat and Pran reenacting Tian and Phu's story, Ugh, it was just so good. And that ending scene? Yeah, it's forever branding on my brain. God, I love them. Overall, a 10/10 in all aspects. The only thing I wished they did was have some kind of crossover with Drake's character since he was in both series, but whatever.

Recommendation value: 8/10 - If you've seen all of the original series, then this is a really fun thing to watch. It's mostly just fluff and skinship, but I'd watch ATOTS episodes over and over again.

bad buddy X a tale of thousand stars 10/10

in all episodes of this series, , the collaboration of bad buddy and a tale of thousand stars is the best , actually i can rate them perfect 10 .. and the rest is just okay .. and I am disappointed for the episode of My school president coz the multiverse is not that good as the original because you can guess already what will be going to happen in the story , they are just only few changes hayss... its better if they just continue the story instead of making the multiverse...

I had high expectations and it didn't serve

What can I say?

To be totally honest, I really hard a hard time watching this.

I was even surprised by that.

Knowing that I am what we can call a ‘bon public’ and that I enjoyed more or less all of the series that were taken for our skyy 2, I didn’t expect to not like it that much.

In reality, other than Bad Buddy x ATOS and Vice Versa episodes (there’s also Never let me go but that is because I’m not being objective), I really didn’t like the series. I think it’s because I just didn’t find the point of most of these episodes. For me, they didn’t add anything to the stories. And for some it was even to the point to I was wondering why they even chose to gave us that.

So from my point of view, Bad Buddy x ATOS was a 10/10 and the rest was just *meh*. It wasn’t that bad either I’m not gonna lie, but it clearly wasn’t awesome. I guess I just had high hopes and expected better.

I’m just disappointed I think.

Never Let Me Go: I think it was very nice what they did. Going to another reality in the past, being gay and cute. They even made me like Petch. Palm and Neungdiao pretending to hate each other was very funny too. I would give it an 8/10.

Star in My Mind: This was GREAT. I always loved Kluen and Daonuea, but their original series was a little frustrating, because of the misunderstandings and all the crying. But it was very nice to see them being the CUTEST and KISSING a lot way more than in the original. I love them so much and it was amazing seeing them just being happy. I still can't stand Typhoon though. I liked that I didn't like Pawin's characters in any of these shows, but they made him really funny and nice in each of them. I give this an 8.5/10.

The Eclipse: This was disappointing. I LOVE this couple and everything about the series, but I don't like what they did in the special. This whole "pretending to have forgotten your birthday and gaslighting you into thinking you're the wrong one" is NOT romantic. Surprises can be nice, but not when you make your boyfriend sad and miserable for so long just to say at the end: "I didn't forget!!!" The whole story was Aye hurting Akk and then kissing him and never apologizing. And Akk always forgave him. I don't think all of this matches their characters. I was hoping for them being all lovey dovey. At least Khan and Thua were great together as always. I'm giving this a 7.0/10.

Vice Versa: I never liked Vice Versa, I only watched it because I was curious about the kid. But it was very meh. I'm not even gonna rate it because I don't have much to say.

My School President: It was just okay. I was obviously happy to see GeminiFourth again, I love everything they do. But it was lacking some creativity. They just did the same story with the actors swapped. Nothing new. I was hoping for something like a trip where they have new conversations and maybe a little kiss. But it was just the same thing. Of course some things changed so it wouldn't be sad and also they didn't have much time to do everything equal. I'll give it a 7.8 because I love all of them too much.

A Boss and a Babe: These two are everything to me and I was very happy with all they did. It was funny seeing them changing roles at work. There's nothing to say but "It was great and loved it". Hoping to see more of ForceBook. 8.5/10.

Bad Buddy/A Tale of a 1000 Stars: Now, this was GOLDEN. I want to go personally to the GMMTV building and kiss director Aof on the cheek. I haven't felt this happy in a long time. This crossover was EVERYTHING. Absolutely incredible. I didn't know I missed PatPran this much. I almost cried so many times seeing them together for so many episodes. If I was ever depressed, I can't remember. I didn't like Phupha back in the original series and I didn't like him very much in this one too, but the ending?????? The proposal with tears??? The kisses???? I forgave him. I love them. Mix is always perfect in everything he does and I loved seeing him interact with my badbuddies. Not to mention the little kid, it was so funny. I love seeing gays in the middle of nowhere, THANK YOU P'AOF, he knew exactly what he was doing with everything and he never disappoints. THIS IS A 10/10 Y'ALL

Something for everybody

As with all reviews, this is just my personal thoughts and feelings :)

Never Let Me Go
I’ll be honest, I wasn’t looking forward to this because I felt like NLMG as a series was very flat; I watched it each week but it just didn’t do anything for me. However, these two little episodes gave me everything I wanted from Palm and Nueng! I felt like we got to see the chemistry both actors have with one another and actually got to see them step out of their comfort zones and play off the storyline. I know a lot of people were dreading the whole ‘time travel’ thing, and I was one of them, but I really enjoyed these episodes and I feel like it gave me a new appreciation for the characters and the cast.

Star and Sky: Star in my Mind
I binge watched the series over the weekend before in order to be ready for these episodes since it was the only show I hadn’t seen of all those included in OS2. I won’t lie, I wasn’t a fan of the series as it felt so bland, leaving me feeling bored most episodes. I don’t think these two episodes really made me feel any different. When watching the original series, I preferred Sky in Your Heart; no, it wasn’t perfect, but Fah and Prince were much more enjoyable to watch and I didn’t feel like I was zoning out constantly. I actually would have much rather a continuation of that relationship over Dao and Kluen. (Also, we got like one mention of Fah and that was about his Condo; and what was with Prince apparently always being on the mountain or overseas? So did Fah and Prince not get married? Are they still together? I know Mek has left GMMTV so they probably didn’t want to bring him back - idiots - but they could have at least given us SOMETHING. Isn’t the purpose of Our Skyy to give us a conclusion to our favourite shows? Sorry, I just really loved Fah over everyone and I’m just bitter I watched two episodes of more or less no character expansion when I could have had more Fah and Prince.)

The Eclipse
I was most excited for these episodes because The Eclipse is my favourite Thai show EVER. Akk and Ayan are my absolute babies (heck, Kan, Thua, Wat and Namo, too) so I’ve been so hyped and nervous for this.

It was perfect.

Now, I fully admit that I am an emotional person, and I was feeling extra when these episodes aired but GOSH I just kept crying. I loved getting to see the different sides of Akk and Ayan’s relationship. I know some people felt like it wasn’t the AkkAyan we’ve always known, but it really was; this was us getting to see these boys without the constraints of Suppalo, without worrying about society’s view of them, just teenage boys being boys. We got to see an Akk who is actually very clingy and in love, but who still has doubts and is trying to find a way to fit into his own skin. We got to see an Ayan who is maybe a little more complacent because he got what he wanted (Akk) and perhaps sometimes forgets himself. (Also, did anyone really think Aye would forget Akk’s birthday? Come on!)

I love that we also got to see where the supporting cast are at in life; seeing Kan and Thua just be in love was beautiful. I had so much love for these characters and I love that Kan is exactly how I imagined in regards to being in a relationship with Thua - he tries to be the tough protector but then he literally cannot sleep for one night without him. I also loved seeing Wat chase his dreams, and even seeing Namo be worried about not mattering was just sort of cool? Like seeing little bits of characters that we love, that we never thought we’d get to see.

These two episodes were so special to me, personally, and I just kept crying! For some reason it really hit me that this is probably the last we’ll ever see of these characters (unless the rumour of that sequel novel is true and eventually we get another season - which I highly doubt, tbh). I do think this was both a cruel and perfect way to end for us; cruel, because now I’m stressing over where Ayan will go overseas for school, but perfect because they all just got to have happy moments and that will be our last memory of them. (Great, now I’m crying again.)

ViceVersa
Full disclosure, I wasn’t a huge fan of this series. I really only stuck with it because of the supporting cast. In all honesty, I think I just didn’t enjoy JimmySea in these roles? Because the whole switched universe thing is a great idea and I loved the story, but I just don’t seem to see the chemistry between Jimmy and Sea that everyone else seems to.

With the first episode of OS2 x VV I didn’t really have much of an opinion. I still don’t really see much chemistry between Jimmy and Sea, if I’m honest. I don’t know if it’s just because of the characters or if it’s them as actors; I do think Jimmy is a great actor, and I thought he was fantastic with the kid that played Jigsaw (part of me thinks the fact he’s a doctor gives him a bit of a soft touch when it comes to kids). The story felt a bit bland, and the introduction of the kid was so unrealistic; when we discover the actual origin of the kid, I didn’t find it funny or cute, just a bit uncomfortable. It all just felt too manipulative and kinda cruel, to be honest.

I just feel like VV is not as well written as it could be overall, and I’m sad about that because I was hoping these episodes might give me a little more appreciation for the original show (much like OS2 x Never Let Me Go did) but alas, I just didn’t feel much of anything.

My School President
Full disclosure, MSP is probably one of my favourite high school BLs. I thought I’d hate it, but it ended up being one of my favourites. The cast is fantastic, the writing was well done, and the whole production was great. It was so good that I was able to bypass all the singing without feeling second hand embarrassment (like I do with most BLs). So, needless to say I have been so excited about these episodes!

Sadly, I feel like they fell short, a little. They were fun, and I liked the multiverse thing and it was super cute, but you really could feel how rushed it was - like, they jammed an entire season into two episodes, so that was always going to be a bit tricky. Luckily the cast have such good chemistry and nothing felt forced. It would have been nice to have seen more of the Pat/Yo thing, because that was completely new (and throwing Korn in like that, that was surprising to me).

At the risk of being ‘that’ fan, it felt a bit weird that no one kissed? Even the ‘Bad Buddy’ kiss was faked, so it seemed a bit odd. In the original series I genuinely didn’t care if anyone kissed because it felt right, but with this I felt like it would have added to the story.

I did love the tributes to other shows (especially ‘He’s Coming to Me’ because that show doesn’t get nearly enough attention). All in all, it was cute enough, but I think the original universe was much better.

A Boss and A Babe
This was another show that I’d originally only watched because it was to be part of this series…but I fell madly in love with it. The writing was great, the whole cast had so much chemistry and ForceBook were just magnificent. So, I’m glad that these episodes were so close to the ending of the actual series because it meant I didn’t actually have to wait! In fact, it did actually feel like just two extra episodes, and I liked that!

Cher and Gun doing the whole sort of ‘king for a day’ thing, swapping roles so Gun would know what it was like to be his own employee was something you could actually imagine the characters doing in the actual series, and it was a joy to watch! Something I loved in the show was watching Gun come out of his shell outside of the workplace, so seeing how tough he can be as a boss was something new but also expected; and Cher trying to soften him in his own wacky way was just so much fun.

I really fell in love with ForceBook because of this show, and these OS2 episodes was a neat little bonus without being too out of the norm (compared to some of the other series included).

Note: I’m gonna do Bad Buddy & A Tale of 1000 Stars in 3 parts, because I think these 4 episodes call for it.

Bad Buddy
It should be no shock to anyone that I am among the legion of fans who LOVE Bad Buddy. It was one of the earlier BLs I watched and I hadn’t thought I would be that fond of it, but it became one of my top five of all time. I know this has been one of the most anticipated series to return for OS2, and I have been so, so excited for these episodes; but I’ve also been very nervous because we all know that Ohm and Nanon aren’t exactly very comfortable with one another at the moment, and I was so worried that what is going on off screen would affect their on-screen chemistry. Oh, how glad I am to be able to say that the nerves were all for nothing. You can say what you want about Ohm and Nanon, but you can’t tell me these guys don’t have amazing screen chemistry and talent. I truly felt like I was right back watching Bad Buddy once again, and getting a little canonically glimpse into their Fake Break Up Era was so much fun. It was cool to see their respective friend groups learning to be friends, especially knowing that Wai and Korn are best friends in the future.

Whilst the storyline for the Bad Buddy episodes isn’t anything overly extravagant, it was so true to what Bad Buddy was at its core, whilst still showing the development of the characters. Pat being and absolute softy for Pran, acting all tough but giving in so easily and basically tripping over himself to fawn over Pran is so on brand and I couldn’t help but giggle at him constantly. Also, Pran trying to take everything on and just being typical Pran…but also showing a bit of a soft spot for Pat. I adore these characters and I am so, so grateful we got this last chance to see them.

BB x A Tale of 1000 Stars
Now, I’m of the opinion that this cross over was concocted by the creators because they were worried that the Ohm and Nanon drama might impact the show, so perhaps giving them other screen partners would soften that. Of course there was no need for worry because Ohm and Nanon are more professional than we ever thought and still manage to carry on their acting chemistry despite what may or may not be happening off screen.

However, I thoroughly enjoyed the crossover! Having Pat and Pran travel to a place they aren’t familiar with is just another thing that helped make it feel like we were right back in the originally series - but having them interact with other beloved characters from another beloved show was just icing on the cake. Earth and Mix can give everyone a run for their money in terms of chemistry, so seeing them face off with Ohm and Nanon was brilliant! they all stole the show and bounced off one another so perfectly.

A Tale of 1000 Stars
Yes, another favourite of mine - I’m sorry, but EarthMix are AMAZING together and I literally would watch them sit in an empty room together doing nothing, because they just have the most amazing chemistry. They just seem so comfortable with one another and it really sells their performances. I adored ATOATS and I have been so excited to see Tian and Phupha on the mountain again. As I said above, seeing the Bad Buddy boys face off with our mountain boys was amazing to watch, and I think it also really held onto what ATOATS is; Tian is always trying to help people, but does still have his own little flaws and is so stubborn he gets himself into trouble, whilst Phupha is still willing to do anything to keep Tian safe whilst also being stubborn and not showing his true feelings when he should. That all said, we still got to see character growth in that both are starting to understand the other’s limits and how they feel.

I won’t lie, getting a proposal as the last few minutes of not just ATOATS, but as the end of Our Skyy 2 was a nice touch. Out of all the series included, I think the characters of Tian and Phupha were the perfect ones to end on.

End Notes:
Over all, I enjoyed Our Skyy 2. It was fun to interact with the BL fandom each week on Tumblr as we all anticipated what episodes were airing, and I especially loved seeing different people get hyped for different episodes.

I do believe that The Eclipse, Never Let Me Go, Bad Buddy and A Tale of 1000 Stars were the standouts, but I think most episodes had something for everyone. I’m a little sad it’s over and that it’s most likely the last time we’ll see many, if not most, of these characters, but it was a lovely way to say goodbye.

fans of the series will enjoy these follow ups

Overall: I think that fans will enjoy this anthology series which showcases 8 couples from 8 recent GMMTV series. Airing on GMMTVs YouTube Channel, here is the playlist https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLszepnkojZI4h6zMFEdD2alNmOI4c9TBN

Content Warnings: violence, homophobia (Never Let Me Go)

My Favorites
- Bad Buddy and 1000 Stars, especially that ending part of 1000 Stars was extremely touching/beautiful

Biggest Miss
- I wanted to see further development with My School President not a re-hash with the actors playing the opposite character

Leia Mais

this should be called our sleep time

unless you are a hardcore shipper of those couples, if not you will feel that its a waste of time... i wonder how long it took them to come up with those scripts, 2 or 5 mins? obviously its rushed, they could take some time to come up with something good but they didnt, barely any creative and any plot, it probably vary from one story to another but no one is really good enough..
if you are here for fanservice go on, just dont expect to see a plot, and im not someone who will waste my time watching every 2 eps (1 h 30 mins) watching 2 people just doing fanservice with barely anything going on, no thank you, id rather focus on checking other series there is plenty
i just wish they put some effort in the script, and i did feel that they just depended on the fanbases not on making good content

Leia Mais

Very Disappointing overall, but what I was expecting.

I was a huge fan of the original Our Skyy Anthology Series that was also done by P'Aof (except for the Sotus epsode) and done brilliantly I thought the same would be done for these 8 episodes and their character couples and stories even though, I would not be watching 3 quarters of them as the newer generation ships of GMMTV just don't seem to have a spark or chemistry as the older generations do sorry not sorry as per when the Teaser Trailer was dropped at GMMTV Showcase of 2022.
It is funny that Neo, Phuwin & Drake are the only 3 actors from the original Our Skyy series which shows how far they have come as actors or how far they have fallen whichever way you want to take it.
I skimmed on 8x speed most episodes, except The Eclipse, Vice Versa and BBx ATOTS Crossover which was the one I was most excited about as these 2 series are still the best series ever made by GMMTV and in the Top 5 of P'Aof's greatest series ever made and I am a huge OhmNanon & EarthMix fan, the Crossover episode did not disappoint me even tho I would of preferred the BB to be set after BB series ended and for the characters to be getting ready for the Pran & Pat's wedding the same with Phu & Tian should of been getting married and should of began where their series ended, but when the trailer came out and PatPran were seen to still be in 3rd or 4th Year of University I was like ok we are just going to get some cute moments and was not sure what we would be getting from Phu & Tian.
I think with The Eclipse, I understand them focusing more on Wat and his love for Indie Films and putting his movie into a competition scenario as we didn't really get much of his backstory in the original series, the creepy relationship with the Teacher tho is not for me and I would prefer him to be matched with Namo as per the original novel.
The Birthday surprises of pretending to forget or not turning up for the episodes that did were tasteless as no way you would forget your best friend' birthday let alone your partners and the only issue I had with Aye & Akk is that they both had a 360 degree personality change since the original series and if anything you would think that they're the ones who had the body swap theme which prob would of been a better story, say an eclipse happened and it made them switch bodies or something so they could understand each other feelings better or something.
KhaoFirst & NeoLouis did very well and saved this series with their great acting skills and chemistry as couples, I am hoping for a NeoLouis Main lead BL for 2024 as they deserve it even though there are whispers that this ship will be split by GMMTV as Neo will be acting with Mark for the remainder of the year. But I prefer NeoLouis chemistry.
Vice Versa I expected a wedding as well since the characters became engaged in the last part of the original series but the story with the random kid turning up (who turned out to be Up's nephew in the end) was flat, boring and Jimmy & Sea still haven't got any chemistry together doesn't matter how many people say they do, Jimmy has more chemistry with Drake again Sorry Not Sorry, from the original series, it would of been better to go back to the "other world" and have them interact with Tess and Tun who in my opinion are more interesting characters and have an intersting dynamic of the Love/Hate thing .
All the other series were boring, the stories didn't make any sense, there was no cohesion between their original series and the special episodes, no chemistry between the actors or couples, it felt rushed, the script was a well a mess, a hot mess.
The Cinematography was beautiful though, P'Aof did well with getting the right places to shoot but all and all it could of been done better especially since as an OG BL Fan I expect more from P'Aof and his friends who are also directors especially P'JoJo and this cast as they have a lot of seasoned actors in the bunch and if there was bad scenes they should stopped and reshot them again and again until they were perfect, but it was just lazy scriptwriting.
My individual scores for each 2-part episode are: (I gave 1 because I could not give a score of 0)
1-2. 1/10
3-4. 1/10
5-6. 8/10
7-8. 1/10
9-10. 1/10
11-12. 1/10
13-14.10/10
15-16.10/10

Un insieme di storie belle

Allora, questi sono commenti a caldo che facevo appena finite le due/una puntate quindi non hanno molto senso, ma servono per fare capire che quale più o quale meno mi sono piaciute tutte le storie.
Never let Me Go -> 9,5 in linea con la serie, per il più… sappiamo tutti perché
Star in my Mind -> 9 + ottima continuazione della serie
The Eclipse -> 10 e lode. Perfetto perfetto poi il limone finale…
Vice Versa -> 10- mi è piaciuto… ma c’è qualche cosa che mmmm
My School President -> 10 è cute, molto e le madri… ah
A Boss and a Babe -> 9+ finalmente due che si parlano
Bad Buddy -> 9 - se i due si fossero impegnati a recitare nei promo come nella serie avrei avuto meno paura di vederla
Bad Buddy e Tale of 1000 Stars -> 9 let’s say che sono un po’ disappointed del finale
Tale of 1000 Stars -> 9,5 e si, mi è piaciuta più della serie originale

Ma ora facciamo le cose serie e stiliamo la mia personale classifica di Our Skyy2 con delle illustri spiegazioni:
1. The Eclipse, 10L: allora se avete letto la mia precedente recensione di TE saprete che ho opinioni contrastanti sulla serie, ma devo essere onesta, questi due episodi mi sono piaciuti molto, ovviamente. Mi è piaciuto come abbiano fatto vedere una relazione in crescita, dove ci sono momenti di alti e momenti di bassi, dove ci sono delle incomprensioni e ci sono poi dei momenti in cui ci si ricapisce e ci si riscopre. Poi dei dirla tutta, First e Khao sono il mio paring preferito fra questi e si vede, hanno una chimica pazzesca che si mostra in ogni scena in cui recitano… quindi, il mio massimo.
2. My School President, 10: allora, io ho amato MSP e la storia che ci hanno portato è una storia un po’ al contrario, dove però non è solo lo “switch” fra i personaggi, quindi Gem Gun e Forth Tinn, ma sono proprio storie, che si si prendono per mano, ma che al contempo sono separate, mi è piaciuta l’aggiunta della storia fra Tiw e Por e ho apprezzato molto che il carattere delle madri non fosse invertito, ma i caratteri della madre di Gun dell’originale fossero rimasti e viceversa. È per l’appunto un take molto carino sul multiverso.
3. VIceVersa, 10-: sappiate che, come nel template originale non so perché ci sia qualche cosa che mi mancava nella serie, però è super cute, il senso di famiglia che Puen e Talay hanno (anche con il marmocchio extra) si sente molto e ho apprezzato molto il fatto che la loro fosse una “relazione adulta” dove ci si parla e si cerca di risolvere i problemi da adulti invece che fare con in molte serie che ho visto dove gli adulti si comportano da bambini e “viceversa”. Poi a me Jimmy e Sea piacciono molto come coppia (anche se li vedo un po’ scagati dalla GMMTV) quindi sono stata molto contenta di rivederli in questi due ruoli.
4. Never Let Me Go, 9,5: bella. È proprio in linea con la serie e anche qui, anche se in un modo differente abbiamo lo switch di ruoli. Poi i viaggi nel tempo, i fated mates e compagnia sono alcuni fra i miei trope letterari preferiti quindi bello. Poi Pond e Phuwin sono il mio secondo paring preferito quindi proprio il feeling il tutto. Poi c’è una cosa che è bella di questa serie e dei due personaggi, che è come se si dessero significato a vicenda e non so… è una cosa che si sente proprio. Poi, allora, avrei dato di più, ma il maledetto colore seppia mi ha fatto abbassare il voto… che aveva anche un più regalatogli da Marc e Pawin.
5. 1000 Stars, 9,4: allora, io ho odiato la serie originale, quindi io stessa mi stupisco della presenza di questa serie così in alto. Però visto il discreto salto di qualità da parte del personaggio di Earth e del fatto che l’anello che ha regalato a Tian sia una nice star (e poi la recita di fine anno degli altri due, dove, quasi in maniera inaspettata si sono invertiti i ruoli) ha fatto lievitare il voto (anche se mi sarebbe piaciuto rivedere il mio cuore di panna di Longtea, che era l’unica cosa che avevo veramente amato del primo). Poi sarò una donna materialista… ma il capo si è presentato con una Jaguar… I’m sold.
6. Star in My Mind, 9,3: c’è poco da dire su questa storia, perché è molto semplice e forse di tutte queste storie è quella che sembra una vera e propria continuazione della serie. Poi è interessante perché mentre in TE si vede una coppia in crescita qua se ne vede una che sai starà insieme per il resto dei suoi giorni. E va bene così, perché al mondo ci sono tutti i tipi di coppie. Poi, il mio Pawin che si è fatto tre terzi in comodo su tre… vi giuro mi aspettavo che Marc comparisse anche qui (e in TE). Poi super cute l’anello (si, lo so, sono una materialistic girl)(ah, per non parlare di Winny/Satang o Satang/Winny, ho come la sensazione che a breve avremmo una serie con loro come protagonisti).
7. A Boss and A Babe: 9,25: anche questa molto carina e anche questa finalmente ha due persone che si parla a e che cercando di risolvere i loro problemi, in maniera più o meno adulta, però almeno ci provano. Kudos per questo. Poi mi è piaciuto tornare a tutti i vecchi personaggi e a non vedere degli ampliamenti nelle loro storie, insomma mi è piaciuto molto che ci si sia concentrati sulla gelosia di Cher, sulla spigolosità di Gun e su come migliorare, sia come singoli che come coppia.
E ora di arriva al tasto dolente, anche se i voti che io do non sono bassi.
8. 1000Star x Bad Buddy, 9: allora, partiamo che qua è proprio un problema della storia, si perdono sempre. Un’intera puntata di gente che si perde completamente a caso. Ecco, questa è la ragione per cui non la ho apprezzata come forse avrei potuto (questo crossover che in se ci sta) ma proprio perché la trama non mi piaceva.
9. BadBuddy, 9-: che dire, come c’è scritto sopra. Mettiamola così, e chi vuole capire capisca: spero che in camera Ohn e Nanon stiano facendo un Pat e Pran post 11 episodio. Oppure sono degli attori a cui dobbiamo dare molto più credito di quanto già non se ne dia. Anyway, credo comunque lo avrei apprezzato molto di più se quando facevano i video promozionali i due attori sembrassero meno “at gun point”… non lo so…

Comunque queste singole digressioni per dire che si vede questo secondo Our Skyy è molto, non necessariamente curato, ma investito del primo e con delle storie che sono studiate e che danno continuazioni omogenee ai personaggi. E poi, ti permette di rivedere i tuoi personaggi preferiti… anche se questo comporta la chiusura definitiva dei tuoi attori preferiti.
