Naughty Babe (2023)

Well… you didn’t eat the food still there

Okay I’m going to start off by saying I enjoyed episode 1-4 I thought the plot was really good at first and I thought it had a rich story, and I thought this was gonna be a really good series, but honestly I thought wronged, after watching episode 5-8 I just have to say what the hell was the writers thinking, first of all no shade nat acting was so horrible, I never laughed so hard during a crying scene, the story felt all over the place, felt like they couldn’t stick to one topic, I have never skip spicy scenes ever before in my life of watching BL until I watch this one, the whole “I love you” then “I’m gonna ruin the wedding” then “do you even want me to stay” then “I love you” then 3 years later we are married with 2 beautiful kids and puppy…. Like what ? How did we even get here ? Plus I knew it was the brother it was a clean give away, the uncle just going proof is crazy. Towards the end it was really hard to watch I mostly just skipped through it after watching cutie pie I just couldn’t do it and I watched cutie pie as soon as it came out and I never heard of this series till now and jeez I wish it never popped up on my recommendation, now I can’t just sit here and say I hated the whole show because they’re were some scenes that I love, the puppy is the real star of the show, Yi father is a icon, low key was shipping Yi and Lian, I think falling in love all over again and yi realizing his mistakes in him and khondiao relationship was really beautiful. Aon is hot, I love yi personality but overall the story didn’t eat but it wasn’t the worst I’ve watch.

Reseña sencilla

Hasta que la empece a ver y vi a los protas y me sonaban que investigando me di cuenta que esta serie spin off de cutie pie según yo es después de los eventos de las 2 temporadas, para empezar me declaro hater #1 de las series que usan el cliché de "uno de los protagonista pierde la memoria" y aquí cala mas pq se trata de personajes que ya conocíamos, pq la vd la pareja me gusta mucho y me gusto este spin-off donde pudimos ver mas de ellos, la trama del coche y del pasado de ellos y como desde un principio digamos que es matrimonio arreglado esta interesante el desarrollo yo siento que cumple y bastante te tiene atrapado la serie, "SPOILERS" para empezar se bn fakesote el tigre del cap 2 y thanks good nos explican que Hia Yi salvo a Khondiao justo del ataque del tigre que por cierto no me esperaba que la persona que murio por el ataque del tigre fuera el papa de On (el secretario/asistente), me cago eso de que recupero la memoria super rapido lit ni un cap dejaron ademas de que no quiere que nadie lo sepa, lo mjr hubiera sido que lo ocultara pero que fuera recordando de poco a poco pero entiendo que eso se hubiera extendido en mas caps, yo entiendo que al final las razones de Khondiao fueron por malentendidos pero al principio yo sentia un ligero chantaje emocional por parte de Hia Yi pero me gusto que al final si se ve un cambio mas notorio en Hia Yi y tmb puedes llegar a comprender sus acciones cambiando un poco el tema quiero resaltar unas cosas para empezar el final del cap 4 esta papita la escena NC del cap 6 good y la escena de la boda del cap 10 y el final tmb eso de que tengan ya una familia toda bonita si me dio mucho sentimiento y alegría por ellos me hubiera gustado ver si Lian y Kuea tmb tuvieron su familia y una escena de ellos reuniéndose (yo se que es mucho pedir):)

Comedy and Drama that doesn't mix

Most really can't handle the cringe of this series, I can. But even when the cringe doesn't bother me, it's still lacking a lot. It takes a long time for me to finish this.

Things I like

The humor. They try to be funny. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I appreciate the effort.

Hia Yi and Kon Diao's interaction when they're not fighting. The hugs and kisses are really cute.

The friendship between Yi and Lian, Diao and Kuea.

Things I Disliked

The whole incident with Lele is nonsensical to me. Why wouldn't they practice extreme caution? Like a 14 year old Yi wants to take him out for a walk, a 7 year old Diao wants to pet him. I think they're old enough to understand that the pet is dangerous. This part really doesn't work for me. Too unbelievable.

Kon Diao's family. Wtf is that. The audacity that they have.

Nat is not that good at acting. He doesn't have enough range of expression. Most of the time it's just a polite smile on his face though the dialogue calls for more.

Casting. Why do Thai dramas cast actors who are way too young to be parents? Especially parents for grown adults. Yi's dad looks too young when you consider Yi is supposed to be around 30.

Diao's indecisiveness. Does he want to get married or not? Is he going to Switzerland or not? Does he love Yi or not? His thinking is hard for me to follow. I really hope rather than trying to solve his problem with his friends, he can try to deal with his family after Yi and Diao are married.

Overall, this drama is too ambitious. The combination of the family drama with the comedy undertone is too much. The beginning is more comedic and it gets serious towards the end, like the drama is made by two different people. I don't know whether I have to take this seriously or not. I thought we could unravel the family and the past properly if we have more episodes.

MaxNat brilharam, mas poderiam ter brilhado mais!

Estive esperando ansiosamente para ver Naughty Babe desde seu anúncio, já que Yi e Kon Diao sempre foram meu casal secundário favorito do universo de Cutie Pie. Esperei mais ou menos pouco mais de 1 ano e confesso que fiquei feliz com a série. Poderia ser melhor? Sim, mas eu gostei!

Os atores fizeram um ótimo trabalho, especialmente o Max. Eu sempre fui uma fã de sua atuação e sinto que ele tem melhorado muito desde Cutie Pie! Também fiquei feliz em ver os outros atores novamente, em especial o NuNew e o Zee Pruk. Falando um pouco sobre a trama, eu achei o final realmente adorável. Me emocionei tanto no casamento quanto no desfecho, acredito que não poderia ter tido um final melhor!

Algo que me incomodou um pouco foram os efeitos especiais. Sério, eu sempre soltava um arzinho pelo nariz quando via o CGI do tigre. Isso acabou fazendo com que as cenas dramáticas do ataque do Kon Diao perdessem um pouco da emoção. Outra coisa que me incomodou foi que a história ficou um pouco corrida no final, já que não tivemos nenhum desfecho do que aconteceu com os Wongtheerawit. Acredito que isso poderia ter sido melhor trabalhado no decorrer dos episódios.

Bom, no geral, a série é muito fofa, mas diversas coisas poderiam ter sido melhor trabalhadas. Ainda assim, fiquei feliz por poder adentrar o universo de Cutie Pie mais uma vez. Espero que possamos ver mais dos MaxNat no futuro!

Nong was the star of the show.

I am so happy Max and Nat got their own series, these two have amazing chemistry and I loved watching the relationship between Kon Diao and Yi in Cutie Pie so I'm happy they got their own series.

Like it predecessor Cutie Pie, Naughty Babe is keeping with the humor and comedic moments which I very much enjoy. You get to learn more about Kon Diao and Yi's past and the reason behind some of Yi's choices and actions in Cutie Pie.

I found it hilarious the archenemies Yi got as the episodes went on. In Yi's mind, that dog really was out to get him ?.

I enjoyed the family dynamic in Naughty Babe and I especially adore Makorn and his obvious love and favoritism towards Kon Diao. I love how the show made it perfectly clear, as did Makorn a few times throughout the show, that he was Team Kon Diao and Yi better wisen up or else. Diao really developed from the character you're first introduced to in Cutie Pie, now he doesn't take any of Yi's crap and is even seen getting revenge against him. It was very amusing to watch Kon Diao's revenges.

I absolutely hate Kon Diao's family. How someone as sweet, caring and kinda naïve as Diao can come from a crook/conman like Sattha is just amazing to me.

The whole amnesia storyline was both good and bad. It helped the plot progress but it also got a little old as well. I didn't particularly like Yi lying to Diao about his amnesia but I understood the reasons for it. The romantic moments between Kon Diao and Yi are stunning to watch. Max and Nat did an incredible job showing the love these two characters feel for each other. Amazing acting from them both.

Yi accepting that his dad loves and adores Kon Diao as the son he never had is just hilarious to me.

The chase scene and that whole plan, while I understood why it was happening was odd and the whole re-proposal thing was just confusing and while it was sweet was kinda a little pointless. Maybe I just missed the mark on what it was about/meant.

And Nong strikes again turning father against his son and I don’t mean Kon Diao!! I died laughing at that whole exchange between Makorn and Diao. Nong really is Yi’s archnemisis. I love the teasing relationship they all have in this scene.

I still hate Kon Diao’s dad but I did really like how he had his chance to make amends with Dio and realize what he was actually doing to his son and hopefully change for the better. I thought the moment between them during the wedding was sweet.

Overall the acting was amazing Nat and Max really shined in this series. The plot was okay, a little boring in places but overall very enjoyable, the music was sweet and fit the scenes.

really enjoyed

this was a good story after finishing this drama I was thinking what one did I like better cutie pie or naughty babe. but naughty babe did it for me, I enjoyed the chemistry between the 2 main leads. even though their was only 8 eps, each episode showed the storyline and had emotional sides, funny sides and the loving sides of each main lead and to get their background story it all fit perfectly within these 8 episodes. the directors topped it off nicely with the wedding and showing u them years down the line where they have children and have became a proper wee family.

but I did like hia yi with the dog they just has a love & hate relationship.

goofy series to kill some time

Watched Cutie Pie first and it really got me intrigued by Diao and Yi's relationship so I decided to give it a try and hear me out: it's not as bad as you may or may not think. Alright? Gotta give it a try.

However..
The plot? I loved it at first with this whole "lost memory" play it reminded me of old times when most of series/movies had this as part of the storyline and Max's acting really did justice to it. But as soon as the 5th episode hit and everything shifted from losing memory and wanting to "fix the relationship" to Diao's family issues and him planning to cut off his own family by ruining HIS OWN wedding I just simply got lost. It's like two series in one and none of them are from the same scriptwriter, you know?

But I can't lie I still enjoyed watching it.
The chemistry between Nat and Max on screen is something so pleasant to watch it can wash away all the "bad" things.
Even despite the fact that Nat (in my opinion) isn't too good at acting and still needs to work on that - whenever he's with Max it's like a whole new atmosphere. Love to see it.
Well.. Max in my not so humble opinion carried the whole series on his shoulders and I know I may be biased since I like him as an actor ever since he starred in the previous series but he just made it so much easier to watch Naughty Babe.

I just kind of wish they'd made it more on the "comedic" side of series other than the "serious" one cause it would definitely fit this one better. There are some intentionally "funny" scenes but actually most of the REALLY goofy ones are the ones that were meant to be deep and meaningful.

So.. if you're planning on watching it:
just make sure you enjoy what's on the screen without looking for any deeper meaning to it cause you might find out that there's no meaning to it lol

Also- just gotta mention that the chihuahua deserves its own fandom. They literally made this dog the third main lead ?

blah

OMG was this bad!! I was only able to watch four eps before I dropped it.
The lead actors both are eye rolling. The plot the writers of this came up with was pretty ridiculous.
Nat's character in my view was made to still look like he hadn't grown up at all since Cutie Pie.
It bothered me the still the way Max's character treated the boyfriend character like he was a child.
Even in Cutie Pie it but it was worse there. This might have been good if the story was better but I tried to watch it to the end but four and maybe about 5 minutes into the the fifth ep is all I could do.

A show that showcased their growth in acting

*happy ending*

We have been thirsty in having MaxNat in their own series and this show delivered it quite well.
Nat, especially, showed the utmost growth in acting that most of the times in the series, I cried with him. There are also times that his acting is so great that Max's acting look subpar. There was even a time that I shouted that Max should step up his game.
Nat has delivered his character well. I really felt Diao's intelligence in Nat's eyes. He is so expressive that you can see it it the screen when Diao realizes something in the conflict.

I really love Diao's power bottom personality. He is really steadfast about his ideals and what he wants and he doesn't waver in fighting for it. He is very upfront in showing love as well that it shocks Yi a lot of times.

The NC scene, especially the uncut is chef's kiss. There is still that odd feeling I always feel when watching MaxNat's NC scenes because of how really young Nat looks. But they did the mature scenes really well and realistically too.

The story, for me, is a 100 times better than cutie pie. It makes a lot more sense too. Cutie pie's conflict is not too big compared to this one. The flow and pacing is also quite well. And I understood the reasons for everything except why Diao still does not want to ride a car except if he is with Yi. When reading the comments in youtube, I can see that they did the novel portrayal very well. Though if you compared it to their cutie pie story, there will be a lot of discrepancies like lele and the timeline. But a lot said that they understand YiDiao's story more in cutie pie because of this series.

I loved watching this whole series. It is very funny, romantic, and well executed. Cant wait for MaxNat's next series.

So good!

I really enjoyed watching this series. It was so fun to watch knowing that it was a connection to Cutie Pie but the thing was I at first didn't know that it as kind of a continuation because their names were different like for example Hia Yi had Chatdecha chen and phayak in his name and I thought it was a whole different series but then I realized because of the dog haha. It was really good but the only things I had concerned for is that the dog... Nong was a white chihuahua in Cutie Pie but then now she is black and white and I was confused because she changed haha but that's not a big concern, another concern I have is that when Hia Yi got into the accident I don't even get how his car flipped over because when he was in the car I get that (because I learned driving before because of the DMV I learned that when it starts raining it gets slippery on the road) and it was storming and Hia Yi was angry because of Kuea not telling the secret house and then when he found out where he really was he panicked but then I don't get what or how his car flipped over. That scene made me cry though because it was sad and Kon Diao was crying :(... The music though I LOVE THE MUSIC IT IS SO GOOD!!!!!! It is still stuck in my head till this day. I watched the series a few months ago and my review is new because lol I just decided to make a MDL account (Just if anyone is curious bahaah) The music is so sweet and the opening like where they show photos of them was really cute. the acting was AMAZING. I loved it. The only thing that the acting lacked was that the car flipping was a good effect but the thing is what DID he flip over on or how lol. And the dog bro... the dog just dyed her fur I guess ????

better than cutie pie

In my opinion this is better than cutie pie,

The story is not great, but it is something.
The chemistry is also okay- like a 6.5/10

Over all the first half was pretty boring but I really enjoyed the second half,
It became more interesting the longer you watched and the ending was one of the best endings in BL !

The ending is really heartwarming and i shed a tear, it was great seeing all of them happy, in loving and healthy relationships !

Is it a must watch? Absolutely not lol, you can go your whole life without watching this and you will not miss out on anything

But stil... I really enjoyed it ! Its great having fluffy and wholesome series that are done well. It will maybe become a comfort show, who knows !

If you are interested in a fluffy, dramatic Bl series this is a good option, I watched for the actors and not the story and I'm glad I did, if I watched for the story I would probably have ruined expectations

Overall it was okay, maybe even good, I gave it a 7/10 because if this is what you wanted you will not be disappointed.. well kinda?
It was boring, hard to get trough the first 4/5 eps but the longer you watch it becomes more interesting!

I will not recommend this to you if If you don't watch bad story fluffy BL's
I will not re-watch it again, that being said..
It still deserves a 7/10 because you get exactly what you wanted
