So Sweet It Can Never Turn Sour!
The comment section is on point for this series - It's Crack in an oven turned to a 1000 degrees.What ties this short series so beautifully; The Acting and definitely the Chemistry. The two leads held a 3 episode series with practically no assistance from side characters, and no actual "plot-line" to go by.
This series went all in on the concept "HaHaHa! Rolling on the Floor Laughing" type of feel;
With it's well known fourth wall breaks from the first season, the numerous parodies of romance tropes, the bonus of having us the viewer as one side of a hilariously insane love triangle, making fun of blatant product placement and using it to their advantage, and of course using current world events - In their case the I-TOW virus - as a means to a successful end.
But more than that, and under all that crack there is an absolutely heartwarming message; Be genuine, speak your truth and make sure to let the people in your life know that you undeniably love them.

I loved it!
Okay. These 3 follows up episodes are awesome! The first season leaves you hanging, and this season tied it all up in a nice bow! I loved it. It’s so zany, and chaotic, and perfect. The line “I worked so hard to change myself for you, when what I should have done was tell you my true feelings from the start!” OMG!!!! What we’ve ALL been waiting to hear in every BL EVER!!!! It was perfection. These follow up episodes are all about speaking your truth, telling the one you love how you truly feel, and being yourself! And dude. Talay with pigtails........ And in those skin-tight gray yoga pants will live rent free in my brain forever!!! And their love confession to each other! Omg!! It was so awesome! They had to censor every other word! Lmao! I loved it! This was so funny, and sweet, and hot, and the sexual innuendos alone were epic! Both actors did a phenomenal job with this, and I really appreciated the absence of all the side characters! Lol! I liked how these 3 episodes focused on Pun and Nott, and their relationship. I would DEFINITELY recommend you watch these special episodes. It made the first season so worth it!Was this review helpful to you?

MEANINGLESS YET ENJOYABLE YAOI FAIRYTALE
For some who enjoys light series with no in-depth plot but just bliss and fit of jokes and quirkiness. I wanna applaud the two main lead for carrying the show themselves without depending on supporting cast. The chemistry is just chef's kiss. Makes me wonder how the hell did u just let YoonTalay ship slip away just like that. I think their chemistry will boom a lot if they're given another series in my opinion. I just love their screentime and because of how they handle my attention til the end, they deserve applause.I love them cracking jokes with each other, being quirky then become serious sometimes is something I really adore. I love how unproblematic and light-hearted this series was, just the way I love it. Yaz it's a sitcom and because it's a sitcom I won't be expecting too much. They made me laugh and those sweet and sometimes cheesy interactions of both leads are cute.
I could see people hating this but this is just a plain sitcom so I think u might as well lower or let go your expectations for a better storytelling bcuz a lot of time sitcoms are there for laughs no more, no less.
This series was just something light for me who always encounter a BL with complicated plotlines and shit. Sometimes it's great to take a break watching those series. This series just succeeded making me laugh and enjoy over its sweet silliness.

Missing a decent story
The show really lacked a story. I felt like I was watching the daily life of a couple, with some cute scenes put together. The basic story is Nott trying to win Pun over after losing his trust after the first season. What they actually do in the show is playing dress ups, while running from a virus. It is not much to watch for three 1 hour long episodes.I must give credit for the quality of production and acting. It's pretty noticeable that Covid severely limited what they could do, however it is what it is. I love gay romance shows but it really needs to be more than two guys getting together.

I loved it! But you may hate it
This show is definitely a you love it or you hate it. For me, the YYY Special is everything that the original series lacked and more. It’s so cute and so funny to the perfect balanced amount. I feel like they incorporated the pandemic in an interesting way.This show might work for you if:
1. You understand that YYY was crazy and stablished that they don’t live our normal real world and that there are no limits.
2. You REALLY like the main couple and not have problem with cheesy scenes
If you keep that in mind from the very start of the first episode, you have a chance of loving YYY special.
My favorite moment is the washing hair scene with Princess Leia's towel hair and the pet names.

Not for everyone, not for me
After finishing the YYY series I was hoping that these special episodes would kind of complete the storyline and give me the ending I was hoping and waiting for.Honestly speaking, this isn’t everybody’s cup of tea and certainly not mine.
I wanted some conclusion, maybe I was hoping for more seriousness (not really). And what did I get? A plotless, meaningless scenes put together into a chaotic (unfortunately not in a good way) “something” what made no sense whatsoever.
The only bright side was acting skills which was enough to make me finish the YYY series alone, but certainly not these special episodes.
I almost never drop something I watch but I just couldn’t finish this...
