I'm not really getting all the hate for this season. I actually really liked it. I will say if you don't like angst and just want sweeeeeeeet moments then honestly just watch the last 2 episode of this season b/c its a little toothache inducing. Little too sweet for me there, but since it was right at the end it was okay. I'm a pretty big fan of angst so this season was great for me. I liked the drama and there were a lot of stomach dropping moments which is one of my favorite things. I thought the acting improved as well.

This show is so wild to me... they talk and include to some REALLY hmm dirtiness, yet it's it's weirdly wholesome. The kisses are usually barely touching lips and sometimes they just use the camera angle to fake kisses (I know bl's have changed a lot in 5 years and the cast was young during filming). It's just a funny mix. I will say this show did a good job at showing actual flirting and stuff. So many shows go beyond romanticizing that it almost takes ALL desire away from the couples. I'm not talking they need to be naked in bed constantly.. I mean they have to show that they actually like each other and are a couple. Flirting and simple touches are sometimes stripped from shows and the friends will touch more than the actual couple! So I did like that I could tell the characters actually liked and wanted each other even when most of the intimate moments were tame. I think that's needed in more shows.

(Also there were a lot of problematic moments.. especially in the first season, but if you made it to the second season you already know that)
