Completely Disappointed

We waited 2 years for this! The whole story could have been told in 1-2 episodes max.
UWMA scenes repeated in every episode that we could've done without...why? Because we saw it all in UWMA. The locations were a school with slightly better locker rooms, some badly built sheds and a hotel with woodchip wallpaper, not even painted correctly. The beach was the redeeming feature, breathtakingly beautiful!
Teams nightmares were a lesson in stiff acting and I have seen Prem do so much better. Boun and his gorgeous smile even seemed to be lacking.
I feel that they didn't get the support they needed. We all remember how amazing they were and know they are capable of so much more.
ABC were changed and again not for the better. Why not just leave the three of them together? Weak plot and no reason for it.
It was really refreshing to see Dean and Pharm being normal and not bursting into tears in every other scene. Having read the books and knowing it doesn't happen as often in them, it feels so over the top, as if they were trying to add more drama when if wasn't needed.
BTW don't expect much in the uncut versions. Every series uses UNCUT for the NSFW/UC content..... there is none of that.
It is a very immature plot and should be rated PG only. It pretty much put one pinky toe over the Bromance line into the BL category.
Guessing studio wabi sabi is aiming for a very young audience given the lack of progress! Compared to all the other studios releasing content and getting bigger audiences, bringing in many more sponsors due to the raised quality.
Would love to see Boun and Prem in another studios production that would provide the support and experience to help them grow and reach their full potential.
Even Disney stars grow up!

Reddit saved this for me.

Apart from the terrible casting, a budget of discount travel hotel vouchers, a music score from a 50's vampire movie and many many other tragic flaws. This series does have some redemption..... REDDIT

1. Shoes on the bed
2. Water waste
3. Falling so hard on your ass, a scratch appears on your knee.
4. Giant earrings on a very beautiful cast member
5. Pirouette to sit on knee
6. Product placement
7. Mutant chin hairs
8. Worst bodyguards in the history of body guarding.

.....Basically too many to mention them all.
This has spawned Unforgotten night Bingo and many a drinking game for those of us determined to reach the end of this series.
Good luck!!

Definitely an Upgrade

I've watched both versions and can honestly say this is definitely an upgrade from the original. The chemistry between the 2 male leads is amazing and they play their respective characters well.
As with all series in this trope, there are the clichéd moments and characters. The story could do with more polishing and of course you will find yourself talking to the screen, in various exclamations! Would really like to see what happens with some of the other pairings that happened along the way, not just Bar.
Will be watching out for new series with this duo, they are just that good together x
