  • STAY BY MY SIDE – 2023 – Taiwan

    STAY BY MY SIDE – 2023 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★ “Thanks for letting me hear your voice.” – Quote from Stay By My Side To someone unfamiliar with the customs and culture of Taiwan, this type of a story can be intriguing. And it was indeed. While in the West (specifically the USA) while we do have ‘ghost stories’, none really match…

  • MARRY MY DEAD BODY – 2023 – Taiwan

    MARRY MY DEAD BODY – 2023 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★★ “I want someone to share my life with, take care of each other, and grow old together….I may never be able to fulfill this last wish.” – Quote from Mao in Marry My Dead Body There is so much to unpack in what initially seems like a throw-away film that was originally…

  • PAPA & DADDY 2 – 2022 – Taiwan

    PAPA & DADDY 2 – 2022 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★  “The couples that are ‘meant to be’ are the ones who go through everything that is meant to tear them apart and come out even stronger than they were before.” – Nicolas Sparks Romantic Love Quotes Romantic, sweet, and full of joy, yet with a (very small) hint of realistic pain underlying the…

  • ABOUT YOUTH – 2022 – Taiwan

    ABOUT YOUTH – 2022 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★★ “I think heaven will be like a first kiss” – Sarah Addison Allen This is the best coming-of-age series I have ever seen, be it straight or gay. It flows over you like a warm summer’s breeze. It is soft, gently, caring, and so full of warmth. That is all do to the…

  • DNA SAYS LOVE YOU – 2022 – Taiwan

    DNA SAYS LOVE YOU – 2022 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★★ “True love doesn’t have a happy ending, because true love never ends” – Divyesh Bhagat This series tricks you. It lulls you into thinking it is going in one direction, only for that to be a ‘red herring’. Or maybe not? That is what made this series so immensely enjoyable and entertaining…

  • PLUS AND MINUS – 2022 – Taiwan

    PLUS AND MINUS – 2022 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★★ “I am and always shall be – your friend” – Spock (Star Trek) This is an exceptional and phenomenal BL series that, I believe, is one of the best BLs currently out there. There is no glitz or glamor here – just good, old-fashion storytelling. Nothing pretentious and no artificial dramas. It is…

  • WE BEST LOVE: FIGHTING MR. 2ND – 2021 – Taiwan

    WE BEST LOVE: FIGHTING MR. 2ND – 2021 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★+  “You asked me to have eyes only for you. Now its my turn to fight back.” – Quote from We Best Love: Fighting Mr. 2ND Despite what you might perhaps sense, you really do have to watch Season one of this series in order to truly appreciate the depth of character of the…

  • WE BEST LOVE: NUMBER 1 FOR YOU – 2021 – Taiwan

    WE BEST LOVE: NUMBER 1 FOR YOU – 2021 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★+  “I don’t need to be number one, but I need to be your number one.” – Quote from We Best Love: Love Number 1 For You This series hit all the right notes, yet it made me still feel empty. And I am not sure exactly why. It is a simple story of…

  • THE IMMEASURABLE – 2021 – Taiwan

    THE IMMEASURABLE – 2021 – Taiwan

    BLISS RATING: ★★★★+ “The best sex is the kind where you forget everything except each other.” – SCOOPWHOOP.com This is an astonishing very short movie (24 minutes) that captures more in that short period of time than most other BLs do in 12 episodes. It is crisp, exact, intense, erotic, and has a clear message.…

  • PAPA AND DADDY – 2021 – TAWAIN

    PAPA AND DADDY – 2021 – TAWAIN

    BLISS RATING: ★★★ “The story of us is and always will be the story of love.” – LoveToKnowQuotes This is a massively frustrating series that went nowhere and literally said nothing. It should have been named snippets of Pappy and Daddy. Besides being so sanitized and non-offensive, I do not think it will satisfy anyone.…
