A mixture of a telenova, an indian series, a Thai BL with a Disney happy ending

Well, I have just finished this series. And all I can say is that when it was good, it was REALLY good and when it was bad...it was REALLY bad.

Story- 7.5/10
The story started off good, but then I think it lost me somewhere, then it got me back. I felt thatcsome things progressed too fast maybe? Also, the ending with the dad. He hated that son was gay, but in the end, in the space of ONE episode, he saw his ways and asked Ace to forgive him?! Just like that?!

Also, Moria broke up with Sky, but is getting on like a b#$ch, cause he moved on. You so don't want him to be happy that u kidnapped Ace's dog, put nuts in Ace's food, which, by the way he's allergic to, leaks a tape with both boys having sex- yet they forgive her for everything. Bullcrap!

I mean, some parts of the series was good, like Sky talking to his mom about his sexuality. Sky and his dad talking in the final episode and even Sky's brother supporting him. But then some parts were bad...and pointless.

Acting/Casting-8/10
The actors who portrayed Sky and Ace- I will give it up to them. When they did an intimate scenes- it was beautiful and believable. And the fact that they didn't do like months of workshop like how they do in Thailand is seen in some of their delivery. But, when they are together, it felt beautiful and good to me.

Some of the supporting characters were over the top for me a bit (looking at you, Ms. Becky), and some of them when needed, gave a good performance in their acting.

Music-8/10
I liked some of the songs used, so I will give it an 8.

Rewatch Value-6.5/10
Yeah, I don't think that I will watch this that soon. I mean, they were some good parts, but I will not be in a rush to sit down and watch these twelve episodes soon.

Overall-7.5/10
If you can get though the bad moments of this series, then give it a go. I found it to truly be a mixture of a telenova and indian series with it's over the top acting and storyline. A Thai BL , cause...well, if you watch it you will see as well as how everything was neatly tied up in the end like how those Thai BL's are done. And of course, it's Disney like ending, where everything is okay and the main couple lived happily ever after. If this is a show that you can see watching with these qualities, then you should give it a chance.
