This show has a rating of 8.5 which is terrifying to me, that's the biggest insult to the original 2moons series because the original has the same rating. This show does not deserve an 8.5, here's why.
How I usually rate the shows I watch is by my overall enjoyment of it, which is what most people do, rather then rating shows in a critical pov. So I don't usually rate them by acting or story or anything like that because most Thai shows are average anyways, but this show was so bad that it was blatantly just in my face telling me how bad it was.
For starters I get that they were trying to fit both seasons into one season but omg they did it so badly, the entire first season was in the first like 3 or 4 episodes, and it felt incredibly rushed, and it degraded the importance of a lot of scenes. And because of this, the main couple felt aggressively underdeveloped, like it went from 1 to 100 real quick, and then for the rest of the series they were pretty much useless, because they were no longer an interesting plot to build onto after the first 4 episodes and turned into just purely fanservice, and then every time I thought they would be of use in a storyline with a conflict, the conflicts fell short and were just stupid, to the point they just felt like filler episodes. But that wasn't even the worst part of the main couple, they made Phana into a jealous toxic monster, like one moment he'd do something really nice and id like him, then the next he would be very toxic and way too jealous and overprotective, and then I remembered I hated him. Like his character ruined the relationship for me, cause he wasn't the lovable, cool, cold-hearted but secretly kind Phana I knew from the original 2moons, he just made me uncomfortable in this show.
Now, to talk about MingKit, I think they had the best plot out of the series, not necessarily great, but definitely not as bad as the others, and it made the most sense, and of course, was very cute. The only issue I had with it was the part with Kits brother, everything else to my memory was fine.
Moving on to ForthBeam, this was actually my favorite relationship for most of the series, despite having a worse plot then MingKit. I had a soft spot for Fouth, his character was just so cool. Plus FourthBeam wasn't a relationship that got to happen in the original 2moons because the original didn't have a season 2, though I didn't really want it to happen in the original because I didn't think the casting was good for them to be together, but in this 2moons I actually loved the casting for Fourth and Beam so it made me like them more. Like not gonna lie, the highlight of this series was Fourth for me. One thing I found weird though was Beams crush on Kit, like its common to like your best friend in shows and in real life, but usually good shows will hint at it, but to find out Beam liked Kit was so out of place and random, but not even in like a good plot twist kinda way. Also I said this was my favorite couple for MOST of the show because near the end I had realized that there were a lot of weird things that happened, like for one Fourth basically only started liking Beam because they had sex, and he legit said the next morning that "I don't do one night stands" so basically he meant, he didn't wanna just forget and move on like what Beam wanted to do, cause Fourth caught feels, which I just thought was strange and rushed, like they weren’t even close. Also, the whole sex scene was poorly directed, the whole time I was just thinking about what I could have done to make it better. Anyways other than that, I guess their relationship was cute, but how it started sucked, and some other nit picky things at the end.
Now I have to talk about acting. It was bad, like so bad. If I had to choose the best actor it would probably be the guy who played Fourth, which is just another reason I liked his character. It was still average, but better than the other peoples. Like the acting in this show pissed me off so much, especially in the first few episodes because they took my favorite scenes from the originally and turned them awful with their bad acting. The director and producers literally held auditions in the middle of a mall, so obviously this was not professional actors by no means.
BUT WHAT I HATE MOST ABOUT THIS DAMN SHOW, is the fact that the director, producers, and writers, completely ignored any idea of making a good show. LIKE THEY DIDNT EVEN TRY. You can very easily tell they only focused on fan service, as if they think the more nsfw scenes the better the show. And yeah don't get me wrong, I love good fan service, but I also like shows having an actual plot, and actual conflict, and actual decent actors. I am not kidding when I say this, this show was made so badly, that I could have written this better than them.
I don’t even know why I watched this whole thing, like even the positive things I wrote in this review were heavily overshadowed by every aspect of the tv making process being horrendous, and blending in to one big mess. Perhaps why I watched the whole thing, and the reason everyone else for some reason thinks this is a good show, is because we were blinded by the excessive nsfw scenes (which aren’t made well either). So I may have watched the whole thing but I ended up just criticizing every scene because they’re wasn’t a moment where something wasn’t just blatantly in your face to remind you that the creators did not give a shit about what they were making. They used the cute story of 2moons and created toxic waste with a bunch of fanservice, because all they actually cared about making was money. This is the worst show I’ve ever seen, but I wouldn't have even written this review if this damn show wasn't rated so high when it doesnt deserve it.
