Fluke's acting deserve an Oscar!!
I just finished watching UWMA and I must say, this serie is one of the best BL series I have ever seen.First of all, the plot is excellent. It's funny, it's beautiful, it's mature and more. But most importantly, it has a good message. The story takes place in both present and past. They have to handle problems like family issues, homophobia etc.
The acting in this serie is really good. We deal with both well known actors and new actors. Fluke (one of the main actors) is such a good actor it is almost inhuman. He handles the more dramatic scenes like a true pro and it is hard not to believe that he is going through exactly what the character is. Though, he's way of acting embarrassed becomes a bit too much when he says "P'Dean" all the time. Other than that, I loved and enjoyed every single actor in this serie (which is honestly uncommon) and their chemistry in real life is also amazing and cute.
I really hope we get a season 2 which focuses on the relationship between Win and Team.
Two things I dislike about this serie: Firstly, when they show scenes from the past, it is sometimes hard to understand what time it is set in. An important part of the serie is to know that the past is set in a time which being gay was not acceptable. But you can't really understand that it is set a long time ago, it looks like present. Secondly, some scenes are really slow. I am a very impatient person, it was also hard not to skip forward since it was kind of easy to understand what was coming next. Though, I think the slow tempo is important to the plot.
I would re-watch this serie anytime.

Though, it took me some time to like the acting (not the actors, I love them). But once you get over the acting, the serie is amazing.
Something I must say I really love about this serie, is the actors chemistry in real life. They are all super funny, kind and lovely. You can see in the serie that their friendship is more than just their friendship on the screen.
