BLzzzz 1: The OG ˙❥˙ (1/7)
Basically the siblings' intro to BL ╰( ・ ᗜ ・ )➝
BLs I've watched (recommend or don't recommend), plan to watch, may watch, have dropped (you 2 may like, so they're on here, anyway), know of, or otherwise think you could enjoy. You'll be able to see my personal star ratings for any dramas on this list. The ratings I give should be enough to tell you what dramas I recommend.
This list shows the ratings I've given the dramas as well as any notes I left for you guys about them. The PG, PG-13, & R have to do with sexual content (aka, the "level of hot") not violence, and are there so you know what you're in for (aka "Do I need to watch somewhere no one can look over my shoulder?"). Most are low to high PG-13. G=No kisses; PG=light to moderate kisses, no bed scenes; PG-13=innuendo/better kissing/may be a light bed scene; R=bed scenes (more or less implied/shown)/intense make-out/sexual language (Think a little above Oh My Venus or What's Wrong with Secretary Kim for these). A rating of 7 is my BL *base rating.* A "7" means I thought the drama was decent (acting, production, cast, story, etc.), so those would be okay to watch. If I give <7, that's not good; don't watch those. Obviously, if it's a 9 or 10, you should definitely watch it.
Where to watch: I will post YouTube links to the trailers & show playlists, but if the show isn't on YT, I'll put "DM" for DailyMotion or "Viki" :)
More shows & movies on other BLzzz lists. For example, more serious, mature, or sad BLs are on list #2 (BLzzz 2)
The "(1/6)" = List 1 out of 6

101. Together with Me: The Next Chapter
Thai Drama - 2018, 13 episodes
I think it was more on PG-13 side. The break-up scene was actually my favorite scene - so well done. Last few minutes of last episode (with the parents, another "couple") are just so bad, so bail before it happens and ruins your day.

103. Until We Meet Again
Thai Drama - 2019, 17 episodes
Mleh. Can't recommend; though the acting is good (esp the granny). (WinTeam getting their own series: Between Us). Worst soundtrack - laughably bad. PG-13. Watch ep 13 if looking for WinTeam CP

110. Where Your Eyes Linger
Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
YES. Def a fav BL of mine. Chemistry/tension is SO good. Drama's too short! I watched on Viki, but it's now locked so try DM. PG
-
111. Why R U?
Thai Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
YAS. S+Z are the cutest. F+T cute too (R for~ 2-3 episodes, not whole series). So close to a 10 (has one problematic area, where character acts out of character for sake of making dramatic). Great chemistry, oof tension, & affection b/w both FighterTutor (actors: ZeeSaint) and SaiZon (actors: Mii2). I'd give 9.8 if I could.

112. Winner is King
Chinese Drama - 0000, 40 episodes
Upcoming; 45 eps. It may not end up fitting this list so may be removed
One comment: "I guess you can compare them to scorpion king and Zhao Jing, though their personalities are very different." So maybe not BL though it has 'censored adaptation of same-sex work' tag??

119. YYY
Thai Drama - 2020, 6 episodes
No. It's terrible. only Talay (actor who plays King in My Engineer) was good (he's got to have the best hair of any BL actor); his "other half" was okay. think "usually bad SNL" for the rest of it https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsxepgkpcQg_lArRLvEqHiSEr1njhZcp2
