What is your favorite TV show and why?
VERY recently I've been into "The Diplomat."
I love old TV shows, the old crime dramas, and one I burned through a few years back was Hart to Hart, which in turn was an updated version of the much older "The Thin Man" films, but more polished, less gritty. "The Diplomat" is sort of an update, grittiness restored, thanks to a husband that is definitely, Definitely, DEFINITELY of the mind that the ends justify the means.
The show is centered on a strong, intelligent, accomplished female lead yet isn't woke. She's every bit as capable as any capable woman out there, but she exists in a real world, one where people don't exist in a bubble, they don't succeed on their own. Others help them, speaking of successful people in reality, and in "The Diplomat" the woman is so strong, so intelligent that she welcomes the help and only seems to get upset over the means.
So it's a great cast, well written and the characters are not just likable -- even the bad guys -- but they're real.
Well. More "Real" than the characters on just about every other series out there...

I am finally finishing The 100 tonight. It’s started strong but the last season fell pretty flat for me.

So I was away on vacation all week and spent about 18 hours (split up into a few days) in the back of a car. I decided to rewatch Criminal Minds to keep me occupied and oh my God I forgot how much I love that show. And now I'm probably going to fall back into my obsession for it 😅

This is such a great video for anyone who has BED. I strongly suggest watching this video even if you just want to learn more about binge eating disorder or learn how to help someone who has said disorder. This person always makes sure her videos are fat positive and anti-diet culture. She makes amazing ED recovery videos for multiple types of EDs, so check her YouTube channel for her other videos if you have a different eating disorder!

Hey ABL. Just sent my doctorate for examination and for the first time since 2019 I have WAY too much time on hands. Can you suggest some binge watches? Got into bl last Feb so stuff before that would be great. Warmly, M
CONGRATZ!!!
10 Older BLs Worthy of a Binge Watch!
(in no particular order, prior to 2022)
Tumblr media
1 Seven Days: Monday-Thursday & Seven Days: Friday-Sunday
Japan 2015 (grey)
Never doubt my ability to recommend this show. One of the best live action yaois ever made, with perfectly structured angst, fantastic characters and acting, and no problematic tropes (rare in Japanese BL). The leads have excellent chemistry although it’s low heat there’s still some really cute mutual kisses.
Tumblr media
2 To My Star
Korea 2021 (Viki)
In the mood for something more grown up? TMS is a touch quirky to get into, but utterly charming once it hits its stride. This is the ultimate grumpy/sunshine pairing plus the most appealing light-filled kitchen of our dreams.
I don't like season 2 but others do. It is very clever.
Tumblr media
3 We Best Love: No. 1 For You & Fighting Mr. 2nd
Taiwan 2021 (WeTV)
How about a uni + office BL? Brilliant acting saved this show from a messy (pretty classically manga) narrative with a lot of angst. You have to buy in to a yaoi aesthetic with this one, accept that things move fast and occasionally confuse, but that everything will be okay. It’s the ultimate pining seme meets the ultimate tsundere uke. WBL successfully manages to combine the best elements of Korean, Thai, and Japanese BL as it exists right now. Couple that to the insane chemistry from the leads, and we have one of the greatest BLs of all time, cooking higher heat to a recipe I doubt anyone else will ever be able to replicate since only Taiwan is this flexible.
Tumblr media
4 He's Coming to Me
Thailand 2019 (YouTube)
With only 8 8 eps and from GMMTV this is short, high quality and bingable for Thailand. Boy and ghost boy fall in love, must solve ghost’s murder. Peak pining but also pretty tame, features my favorite sweet but important coming out sequence in all BL. The third in my precious triumvirate of unbeatable Thai BLs, that are only nominally BL because the story, acting, and production values are so good.
(Together with Until We Meet Again & A Tale of Thousand Stars - those 2 are longer so I don't consider them as bingable, but if you want something to get really stuck into? Go to town.).
Tumblr media
5 Color Rush
Korea 2021 (Viki)
A unique paranormal twist elevates this classic high school drama into a pitch-perfect allegory for the queer coming out experience and one of the best BLs of all time (I will fight you on this). Here's my battle essay.
Original trigger.
(Don't bother with season 2.)
Tumblr media
6 HIStory 2: Crossing the Line
Taiwan 2018 (Viki)
Lin Pei Yu directs this sports romance (volleyball) with a good boy/bad boy pairing, and my hands-down favorite of the HIStory franchise. There is no clear seme/uke. Ostensibly it's high school set but Taiwan doesn't care about age appropriate actors. It's a very soft sweet romance with some ridiculously easily overcome conflict. There's great kisses but it's medium heat. The side dishes are the stepbrother trope but they’re very tame, and there’s no other triggers. It's not just my favorite of the franchise, it’s one of my favorite BLs with a perfect happy ending.
(The second H2 is also pretty good.)
Tumblr media
7 Cherry Magic
30-sai made Dotei Da to Mahotsukai ni Nareru rashii AKA Cheri Maho
Japan 2020 (indie subs)
The sweetest fluffiest magical realism BL, packaged as a pinning office romance, very low heat (practically chaste) but the cutest. It’s truly great.
Tumblr media
8 Light On Me
Korea 2021 (Viki)
Korea does an elegant pastiche of traditional live action yaoi but all tropes are cleverly deployed to bolster one of the most riveting love triangles ever put on screen… and I don’t like love triangles. LoM strategically tailors classic BL tropes to 2 different semes resulting in pristine pacing, plot, and character development, explicitly serving narrative (not just to tick boxes). LoM is a master class in trope drops. (If you write fanfic or romance you should study this show.) Full review.
Tumblr media
9 Be Loved In House: I Do
Taiwan 2021 Viki
A cute classy office set BL with a few plot raised eyebrows, but no other concerns. ALL THE TROPES plus a general sweet softness that’s pretty rare from Taiwan, who usually prefer to go hard, but all their signature domesticity.
Tumblr media
10 Lovely Writer
Thailand 2021 (YouTube)
Thailand criticizes itself and the BL industry while simultaneously giving us classic seme/uke with great chemistry in a one-two punch of “we love it, but are we supposed to? and must we think this hard, yet enjoy it SO MUCH?” This show won’t appeal or make sense to those who don’t already have at least some Thai BL watching experience. What Lovely Writer does, at heart, is reexamine Thai BL has done to queerness, but in a very gentle way that has more to do with Thai BL growing up than any actual queer authenticity. It’s not parody or pastiche, but it is self reflective and trying to correct for some chronic mistakes. Whether it is ultimately successful in this matter is going to depend on the watcher’s relationship to BL and queer identity. But that’s what makes this show beautiful, interesting, and thought provoking. And I, for one, applaud the effort even if I didn’t personally connect to the characters.
If you wanted 2022 included here's my top 10 from 2022:

Low key disappointed that Earthspark is gonna drop its whole season at once on Paramount+
I’m gonna have to binge it all in 1 sitting so i dont get spoiled :(( kinda hate what streaming has done to series
I sometimes miss the days where we had to wait for each episode of a cartoon. It was a nice little something to look forward to each week.  Gave us time to discuss each episode properly and get excited and theorize for the next one

hi, which version or versions of the nibelungenlied have you read? are there any you would recommend?
omg, anon, i have no idea what i've done to deserve such a cool question because i've only ever talked about this book in reblog tags, but thank you for giving me a chance to gush about the copy my baba got me for xmas!!!
Tumblr media
this edition is (according to what i was told) the first time both the nibelungenlied and the klage have been published in a single book in english, and as a language nerd (as well as one for the material side of literary history) i absolutely loved it. every other page, the footnotes explain not only the translation choices but also the manuscript ones, as there are several fragments with subtle differences (the going theory is that the story was written down by retellers rather than whoever might have been the original author[s], so it's less exact than it might have been with, say, chaucer) and whobrey had to decide which to treat as his 'canonical' version. he occasionally talks about what previous translations have done in contrast and explains why he agrees or disagrees with those choices (and if they match what his own work has gone with), as well, which was an absolute treat. i already had half a mind to go back to studying german when i'm done with italian, but this book definitely bumped it up in my list because i'd like to see (admittedly likely in about ten years, lol) how the english translations differ from whatever version might exist in modern german.
this version also comes with a glossary of locations and characters at the end, though it is spoilery as hell so depending on how much you know of the story sometimes it's better to just stay confused a little while – and, if it makes any difference, it bears saying that other than my background as a dragon age tabletop player (which was the reason baba thought i'd like the story) i'd never had any contact with anything closer to the subject matter of the nibelungenlied than your average silmarillion fan, and i still managed to come out of it having understood it with no problem.
if you do end up reading it, please let me know what you think!!! i need other people to get my extremely loud feelings about this ridiculously melodramatic middle high german soap opera
