Perfect 10 Liners (2024)

A series I can watch all day and night

I have read the novel and I love it, no need to doubt Jittirain's writing skills. Personally, I think this series is adapted and modified well. They changed some details from the novel, but that makes me love it even more. The comedy, the friendship, even the love story, everything just makes a harmonious plot. It's my current comfort series, I am willing to watch it all day and night if I have nothing to do. I really can't wait to watch the new episode every week, so if you haven't started it yet, I hope you can start it now. Don't binge-watch it, you'll miss the euphoria!

A Comfort Show For All Ages

This series is funny, lighthearted, endearing and overall an easy Sunday night watch.

The cast so far is solid, Book, Poon & JJ are clearly carrying the show with their excellent comedic timing. Book’s characterisation of Arm’s naivety however is extremely endearing & sweet which makes me silently root for him.

These types of shows tend to tread dangerously closely to being cringe if done poorly, but so far everyone is bringing their A game.

Simply put, the show feels like warm well-balanced & flavourful soup on a cold rainy day

Note: Since its airing following We Are & is directed by the same Director, naturally there are a lot of comparisons. My personal opinion is that P10L has better storyline pacing and the screen times are also much better allocated. The overall cast chemistry also feels a bit more authentic.

a funny and goofy series

to be honest i don't like the plot like that but this series interested me so much. i love that arc is so confident in his feelings. yeah he teases arm and someone said that it's so rude of arc but i don't think so. arm likes it. he likes it so much. his behaviour proves it.
can't wait to see the way arc and arm' relathionship will change.
the kiss in ep 4 was so gentle. i've seen someone said that it's so weird to kiss before confession but that kiss was in the right moment. it should helps arm to understand his feelings.
i higly recommend to watch this series. it's unserious sometimes but i wanted something like that so much. this dynamic plot,a good acting deserve your attention. this series made me so happy these days.

An Entertaining Watch Indeed!

“Perfect 10 Liners”, like “We Are Series”, is a fun buddy romedy comedy series, which centers around a group of friends, who grow together and find love. Despite not having much substance, it is a feel-good romcom that is meant to be a comfort watch, with little to no tension. “Perfect 10 Liners” is your quintessential BL, you know what you’re getting and you’re happy with it, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything more than it is. The problem with this, however, is that it can be boring and seem overdone, but at the same time, it is a show that wouldn’t disappoint you with its formulaic storytelling. This is for the slice of life lovers, who just want to watch a good romance and see friends goof around while falling in love with no stakes.

A series that i don't expect that i will love this much. Watch it all day long.

I read the novel first and then waiting for the drama to airing and i tell you IT IS WORTH IT.

At first i don't think that book will portray Arm character well cause, he tall. Arm in the novel shorter than arc, only, maybe 170-ish. I just dont think that book will nail it. But when i watch the first episdoe im glad that he take arm character cause HE CAN NAIL IT. He cute (cuter than novel) not too stupid, and the feeling that he deliver, you can feel it from his eyes (one of my favorite thing, book acting with all of his body, include his eyes. He became one with the character). I'm proud of of him cause before they play this series, they shoot for peaceful property and the character is 360° How can they do that?

Arc here is more realistic than in novel. I love both. Force acting is sooo goodddd i love how he look at arm. Force is literally Arc in real life. Its crazy that he play Gun (30 yo man (? I forget gun age) top, phoom, and arc. you are so talented!

I hope everyone watch it with open minded. Because it is good. As someone who read the novel first, i suggest you to watch it! If you tired of yourlive, need laugh, cute romance, you need watch this.

For other character, they still haven't show much. I cant say anything yet, But i guarantee that they will deliver the story really good cause the cast is the most talented one. Please give it a try!

We Are, but make it worse

I'll adjust my rating as the show goes on, but for now I'm not invested. I'm entertained, yes, but not engaged. Don't get me wrong, there's a lot to like here: some of the humor, Poon, PerthSanta, Poon, how half of the GMM actors are involved in this projects, Poon, some friendship moments, Poon, AouBoom, did I mention Poon? But there are also plenty of things to dislike, and since I'm better at talking about what's bad than what's good, I'll rant my feelings now.

First, let's talk about the friendships. While there are cute moments (such as Arm and Sand both talking to their boyfriends-to-be while Pipo is laying lonely in their middle), the show fails to capture the true love aspect of friendship in the way We Are did. I'm only comparing the two shows because it is glaringly obvious that 10Liners is going for that same vibe, and so far, it's not failing entirely, but it's also nowhere near We Are levels of adorable, loving chaos. The actors have solid chemistry and the characters do have funny banter, but I think the show is trying a little too hard, and it's not landing. It sort of feels forced, like they're trying too hard to recapture something else rather than creating their own thing. While the friend group in We Are gave chaotic, lovable ride-or-die, this is giving your stereotypical BL college friend group, just a little funnier and a little dumber. I'm not getting the love vibes they're clearly aiming for, in part because some of the humor is to the detriment of the whole true friends thing. Take episode 5 for example, when Arm and Sand just leave a fainted Pipo in the middle of the courtyard. Was it funny? Yes. But it also took away from them being good, caring friends. Say about the guys from We Are what you will. They were idiots and they bickered all the time, but they came through for each other. No way in hell would any of them have left one of their gang lying there. They would've grabbed the guy by the arms and legs, and dragged him away. Which would've been equally as funny (maybe even funnier) than what Arm and Sand did, all while showing genuine care. The same thing happened in episode 8, where Sand goes into Pond's car and Arm goes into Arc's car, both driving off with Pipo left behind. I get that Pipo being single is a running-gag, but his two best friends just driving off with their boyfriends and leaving him alone when one of them could've easily taken him with them just seems cruel. You could've made him sit in the backseat and focused on his single ass while the couple in the front is being all lovey-dovey. That would've had the same comedic effect without making Sand and Arm coming across as unkind and inconsiderate. The humor actively takes away from their friendship, so that's something they need to be careful with if they want me to buy the whole friendship thing.

Now for the ships...

ArcArm:
My main issue is the same problem I have with every ForceBook show: their lack of chemistry. Look, I love the two of them together behind the scenes as much as the next guy, but I really do not like them as a romantic pairing on screen. Their kisses look good in terms of mechanics, but there's no feeling. They have zero romantic sparks between them, and their acting leaves a lot to be desired. Especially on Force's end. I don't know why, but he has zero charisma in any role he's played, Arc included, which is surprising considering Force has a lot of charm in real life. Somehow, though, none of that translates onto the screen and the characters he's portraying. It's a shame because Arc especially would benefit from some damn charisma. His character is not exactly likeable with his hot temper and his 'I'll push you around until you love me' approach to flirting. If Arc had some charm, it wouldn't be so hard to watch him drag Arm around. Not that him having more charisma would make his behaviour okay. A guy you've known for about a week pulling you down on the bed against your will while he's half naked is not okay, no matter how much charm there is and how good he looks. But a bit of rizz and more chemistry would go a long way and would certainly help in making me not want to scream whenever he manhandles Arm. Sadly, though, Arc has the rizz of a piece of cardboard and the chemistry is as sparkly as a dead firefly, so I just feel sorry for Arm for having to spend all his time with this piece of work. Arc is also a little too controlling for my comfort, and jealous to a toxic degree which is one of my personal pet peeves. As for their story... Well, it's yet another uninspiring love story following all the BL clichés and adding nothing new to the table. If you've seen any other campus BL, you've basically seen this. Dressing wounds, falling on top of each other, playing in the ocean, buckling seatbelts, and so on... It's all there. Arc is the I-Will-Harass-You-Into-Loving-Me stereotype, so you could pretty much exchange him for Fighter from Why R U or Johan from Fourever You which is currently airing. Arm is also just an empty shell of your ditsy, dumb BL bottom who is the last to realize he's being flirted with. And of course a failed relationship has given him a fear of love, because everything else wasn't cliché enough. Then again, usually it's the tops who fear love, so I guess there's at least a little twist.

Thus far, my favorite part is Poon. He makes me smile every time he's on screen, and while I'm not a fan of Marc's acting, they do have more chemistry than the main leads.

All in all, this is pretty much what I expected it would be so far. I'm really just waiting for Perth and Santa to take over because they might make me throw all objectivity out the window and start squealing and kicking my feet.

Under Construction

Don't be confused by the headline, it just means that the review is under construction. I was going to wait until all of the episodes were out to write my review, but it is a three couple arc. And one just got over, and it felt right to leave a review for that one as the fuzzy feelings are still fresh, because truthfully, I see a ton more fuzzy feelings on the way watching this.

So this will be almost like three different reviews in one entry, one for each couple, in the order of their appearance. And first up..

♡ Arm and Arc
I loved it.
Everything about it. A perfect score to start this off because honestly, it doesn't deserve anything less than that from me.

The story - so simple, yet effective. Just two people falling in love after starting off on the wrong foot, but not just that. It was the losers in love energy that absolutely sold me on them. The way everyone but the two of them could see they were head over heels for each other. Seriously, even guest characters figured it out two seconds after their appearance, took Arm and Arc eight episodes.

I exaggerate, of course, but that dynamic they brought, being unbelievably in love with each other but at the same time not being able to acknowledge it (for very good reasons actually, I was impressed), it made it so much more real and romantic. The initial animosity never really went away either, it just translated into a lot of flirting and misplaced feelings. They argued like children and flirted like teenagers, and even this had me swooning and waiting for them to get together. And the wait was worth it.

The anticipation, the pushing and pulling, the tiny jealousy flaring, and so much flirting was all worth it. Because even when they weren't together, they were together. And the chemistry between Force and Book?! Click - Click - Click!!! They brought it. The perfect mix of excitement and safety, you could feel that with every one of their interactions.

Not just them though, everything was amazing. The little glimpses of the other two couples, the supporting characters with their adorable and funny quips, the comedy, the guest characters and best of all, the side couple. Sand and Pond have interactions that make you want to sigh in happiness and wrap yourself tighter in your blanket because their relationship is like a warm hug.

I have no complaints about this one, their story will obviously continue in the next couple's arc (obviously, again, not as prominently), but they wanted to tell us tve story of how Arm and Arc began dating (they actually said this in the series), and they did.

I, for one, am incredibly satisfied with how they did it. I just love Arm and Arc.
