Pisces the Series (2021) Episode 1: Capricorn

It's nice to see Kelly back with a new Filipino (Pinoy) boys' love (BL) series. In a lot of ways, "Pisces the Series" is an improvement of "Even After." While both are do-it-yourself (DIY) series, the plot/storyline of "Pisces the Series" appeared more complex than "Even After." "Pisces the Series" has more characters but with each episode focused on Pisces' relationship with one character, this new series seemed more focused. Episode 1: Capricorn was about Pisces and his boyfriend Capricorn. Some character backgrounds that relate to their relationship and their studies were provided. Screenplay had cheesy lines but for the most part, it was natural and realistic. In terms of acting, although he's already better than most DIY series actors, Patrick still needs improvement. Kelly's more comfortable now with his performance. Audio-visuals can be made better. While the soundtracks "The One for Me" and "Perfect Sign" by Bianca Nicole Millare were ok, some background noises were distracting. It might be style but the grainy camera shots didn't quite provide the desired effects. But even with these issues, this pilot episode was still a decent start for this series.
