It is honestly exhausting to sit through another terrible series like this. I have noticed the same group of actors popping up in several of these subpar Filipino BL projects before, and they just don't seem to get any better. The production value is bottom-tier, the acting is painful to watch, and there is hardly enough plot here to even justify calling it a show. I get that a lot of these were made as passion projects during or right after the pandemic, but it is 2026 now, and there is just no excuse for this kind of poor execution. It really should have just been a quick short film instead of stretching it out. At least it only has six episodes that run about 15 minutes each, so you can fly through it pretty fast if you’re unlucky enough to start it. The plot is about as basic as it gets. We follow a guy named Sam who is stuck in a major emotional rut. He has been in a steady, loving relationship for years, but he can't stop obsessing over his ex, Travis. Apparently, Travis ...
Quarters (USA, France)

Rubber Duckie (USA)
In a seemingly post-apocalyptic world, consumed with boredom, Jesse and Daniel push their own limits and boundaries. But is it simple boredom or an insatiable innate appetite for more?

Boygame (Sweden)
John and Nicholas are 15 years old and best friends. They are very interested in girls but feel insecure when it comes to a first sexual encounter with a girl. The obvious solution would be to "practice" on each other. What will happen now? Can they remain friends?
Early One Summer (UK)
A short film about a first crush. When Dave goes on a camping trip with his PE teacher, he thinks something amazing will happen. It does, but it changes both their lives forever.
From Here To There (Hong Kong)
Two college boys meet again at a wedding banquet ten years after graduation, sitting next to each other, as in the past. Jae drives his drunken friend, Him, far away to his home. The trip was long enough for them to review their relationship, but not good enough to repair it.
Boygame and the one from Hong Kong were the only decent films in this collection. Rest three are easily missable. Although I binge watched the whole trilogy here, I have to say that oversell it was a bit disappointing. (3.5/10)
