I did not guess that Princess was Kenji's sister - but considering how selfish they both are, I guess it fits. So where the heck did Princess run off to, if Kenji is under the impression that Joey is taking care of her??? I still think that Kenji was likely dating Wil too. That revelation came out of the blue for me too. So all the times we saw her phoning her brother to plead for help and he just kept hanging up on her, it was Kenji all the time! I also agree that it was probably Wil who was the guy at the centre of Kenji's past indiscretion that they keep mentioning now and again. It would explain why he's had so much animosity towards Kenji from the start. This show has definitely become less of a BL and more of a standard soap opera with all the convoluted plotlines, shock disclosures and characters being revealed as being related to each other. Talking of siblings, whatever happened to Wil's brother? Last we heard Wil's mother was going to arrange alternative living arrangements for him away from the boarding house. He's never been mentioned since, not even by Wil. Do we just assume he went home? And the most important question of all... where's Planty? This advert was put out by Star Digital yesterday so it doesn't look like this second chapter has that long to go: Like the natty clothing!

The small part of me willing to be charitable, suggests that Kenji really wasn't hanging up on her - he just had a bad connection wherever in the world his month long conference was being held at.
Kenji and Nuan look really good in the promo picture. I do not care for the berets.
I do agree - it has become annoyingly soapy and to convoluted.

Leave it to Pretty to be the smartest of the bunch - Baby Butch does look like the love child of Wil. Wil is an idiot though - how could he not put 2 and 2 together when Jimmy specifically mentioned that he was going out to look for Princess. I did not guess that Princess was Kenji's sister - but considering how selfish they both are, I guess it fits. So where the heck did Princess run off to, if Kenji is under the impression that Joey is taking care of her??? I still think that Kenji was likely dating Wil too. That was my thought Jimmy clearly said he was going to look for Princess maybe Wil was so focused on Joey and baby Butch he didn't hear him I did catch how Joey asked the baby if he wanted 2 fathers even though we know the baby is Wil's Joey thinks Butch is Jimmy's

No one looked good in episode 15 so far.
Joey - just because your the baby's Godfather, doesn't mean you have to be the sole guardian. Go to Madame Tusha and ask for help. If nothing else, she should be giving you a discount on your rent for taking care of her Grand-Nephew, so she doesn't have to (and I think we still have had only 1 or 2 scenes with Butch and Madam Tusha in the same room). Pretty shouldn't be expected to work as Madam Tusha's assistant - and apparently the only one Joey can hand the baby off to, in order to go to class). Asking Jimmy's friends for help was a good first step - but are they going to be reliable?
That said, Joey agreed to be Godfather to the baby - he took that responsibility and I felt that he was a bit unfair during the fight in part 2. Even if he was doing it to try to get Jimmy to finally realize what his priorities should be (it didn't help that the audio went really flaky during that scene).
Jimmy - You feel abandoned because Princess left you - how should your son feel about you abandoning him. Taking your abandonment issues out on Joey was just as bad - and frankly Joey was too nice during the fight at the end of 15 part 1.
Baby Butch - why is he wearing a necklace - isn't that a choking hazard? What is it with these 2 and caring for a kid. Frankly, Baby Butch might be a good candidate for an intervention with Child Protective Services - as he probably should be in a foster home (either that or Madam Tusha should be stepping up)

I searched through the past 4 pages of threads, but didn't see a thread for Star Digital Network's next series: The Shore BL Island. I kind of am feeling lazy, so I figured I would put the trailer here with one of their other shows and wait till it actually comes out to post a separate thread:

I didn't recognise any of the guys in that teaser, though I will admit they are very easy on the eye. It's not so long ago that SIDN put out an open audition notice for this series so maybe they are the successful actors? I downloaded this poster for the show a week or so ago when it was attached to an article about the damage done to the company's premises by Tornado Ulysses. The blurb underneath said Jules, Drei and Mitch Raymundo (who plays Wil's sidekick Lemuel) were going to be the main 'stars'. I didn't twig that it was Mitch who pushes then kisses Jules in the BTS video I previously posted until I saw him in the poster. I do wonder if the repercussions of the tornado might delay this show from being completed for a while? The article I read said the company had lost a lot of equipment such as laptops and filming tech which had been destroyed by the flooding.

Now I remember where I saw this on the board - Antistatic it was from your post on the channel's twitter feed with the clip of Jules kissing a guy from a couple pages back in this thread. I was really wracking my brain trying to find a separate thread when I posted last night. Maybe I am not losing my marbles after all Link for tomorrow's premiere of part 1 of episode 16 Courtesy of Star Image Digital Network.

I still find it strange that no one has shown Wil the video of Madama Tusha throwing Joey and Princess out - not even his minion Lemuel (who I had forgotten was quite cute - so it was nice to see him planting documents in Kenji's office).
Jimmy appears to be completely smitten with Joey - and Joey appears to be oblivious (either that or he is going back to his defense mechanism of ignoring anything he doesn't want to deal with).
I did like the fact that Joey grew a spine for a few minutes during the confrontation with Wil over their sleeping arrangements and Joey's job. And strangely, at this conversation, Joey was willing to consider Wil's jealousy towards Jimmy as a significant factor in this mess.

Getting caught up on a week and half worth of BL storylines, meant trudging through a pair of Amore clips - I have to say I was actually pleasantly surprised as they were actually mostly enjoyable. First - Nuan. The timeline of this show has always been really loose - I am honestly confused as to whether they are in their second or third semester (and it really depends a lot on just how pregnant Princess was before she decided to temporarily nest with Jimmy and Joey on how I would interpret the passage of time in this show). With that caveat, we learned about Nuan's foster father and his interest in Nuan, as well as that something had happened between the foster father and Nuan's brother Dexter fairly early on - so now we are supposed to believe that Nuan has stayed with the foster father this whole long time and that Dexter left him there? Dexter was pretty adamant the last time we saw him that he and Nuan should leave together. Wil did a good job of acting faux-nice, offering Nuan a place to stay, but I bet that there will be some serious strings attached later on when Wil's plans start to crumble. I really think Nuan should have gone to his brother - or that the show had brought the brother back in for at least a conversation or phone call. That said Nuan's red boxers were very flattering Jimmy - he is infatuated with Joey. The scenes with Madame Tusha - especially at the end of 17-1 were really good. I also liked the conversation between him and Nuan - I don't think Nuan was thrilled to put together the puzzle and find that Jimmy is also in love with Joey, but the two of them sharing what they like about Joey was really sweet. Wil - if looks could kill, Jimmy would have been 6 feet underground at the end of that breakfast. Jelay and Brenda - Jelay seemed weirdly disengaged during the conversation where Nuan confessed about his foster father issues. It seemed really out of character. I did really like the three of them hopping into the car to go along with Wil and Joey - that was actually pretty cute. Joey - I still have no idea why these guys chase after you. Even when two of them try to enumerate a list of your merits, I still find you kind of lackluster.

Whaaat? Waited ages for that new episode and it turned out to be the dramatic showdown between Joey and Wil. Ooh! I felt some of those slaps Wil got and have to say I thought it was well acted by all, especially Ivan. Joey looked excessively bloody later on. I actually thought he might be dead for a second, but low and behold the preview shows he's back in the next episode without a scratch.

Star Image have put out the trailer for their latest offering "The Alter" which will have Buknoy playing dual brother/sister roles. I'm not sure how this will be received as a series as Buknoy is seemingly a very divisive personality in the Philippines due to their controversial and provocative vlog comments.
