Another wasted potentional

When I came across this show, I was excited to see it had some of my favourite BL actors; I wasn't expecting anything amazing since it's an 'earlier' show (coming out in 2018, whilst most of the shows I've seen are 2020+), and initially I was really sucked in. Was the acting great? No. Was the script good? Also no, but there was heart in it, and it really did do have the cute enemy-to-friends vibes.

However, half way through the series it all sort of went sideways. Out of nowhere the 'love is love' supporting adult is homophobic when it's her own son, which could have worked had it been executed properly. There was also the random revelation that the two boys had been friends in the past but fell out because Mork had got a little too curious about Tee's body, which really kind of came out of nowhere if you ask me. I also don't know why Barbie and Ching were included at all, because their side story was almost non-existent and pointless.

I really am sad that the second half of the series went so poorly; I read somewhere that there was a change in director/writer/crew or something half way through and that's why it's very different, but regardless, it did ruin the show for me. If it had continued as it was, I truly think this would have been a great series.
