Stunning - one of GMMTV's Best.

Seriously - 'stunning' is the only word to describe "55:15 Never Too Late". I don't even know where to start. On the surface it's just another gimmick - suppose (at 55) you woke up one morning in your 15 year-old body...what happens next? Now let the awkward old people (unable to fit into today's 5G world) try to adapt and let us start chuckling and guffawing at them old-timers. Hardy-har-har.

But then...that never really happens. What we get instead, is a beautiful essay on life and death, regret and rebirth, addressing the past and embracing the future. This series is so beautiful in every aspect. ALL of the five leads are magnificent. Just watching these young actors embody their 55 year-old selves...man, you have to see it to believe it. Just watching Thanawat Ratanakitpaisan go from excited to confused to smitten to in love within minutes - I just kept thinking, "Is this really that kid from 'Tonhon Chonlatee'? When did he become an old soul?" Of course, the standout performance, IMO, is Nanon Korapat. He is brilliant, and watching him in "Bad Buddy" on a Friday and in "55:15" two days later - mind blown. His performances in both these series is the stuff of legend.

The writing is incredible, the direction is flawless - everything is top notch. Even the Costuming Department throws in some minute details - like the five "teenagers" dressing like 1980s hipsters or Jaya's hairstyle that she refuses to change (girl, just move on from your teenage heyday!) to Jarunee's old-lady outfits. Job well done.

I really have nothing much to say except - please watch this. It'll definitely be among the best for 2022, trust and believe. Oh, just a warning - there will be crying. You can rest assured.
