To be honest, I didn't really like this series at first. I honestly didn't like Nubsib's character, it felt like he was always forcing Gene to notice him and to do things with him. He was respectful, yes, but I felt like, after all, Gene didn't really have the choice to let him do the things he wanted. but since the moment they get together, Nubsib completely changed. he became sweet and even more respectful in my eyes. so, since ep 9, the story becomes really interesting and I loved it. I cried and laughed a lot. it's really a great series since the 9th episode. And I think it's a shame cause it has potential. The main couple was adorable not to mention de side straight couple who was, for me, the best!! These two had the best chemistry. But I have to say that the main couple had a good chemistry too.
anyway, to conclude, I have to say that I really didn't like the 8 first episodes, I forced myself to watch them. but it really becomes a great series since episode 9, when the main couple get together.
I hope you'll enjoy the beginning more than me and that you'll enjoy the end as much as me :)
