We all have shows that we simply weren't ready to say goodbye to 😢

Whether the story felt unfinished, characters were left unexplored or the source material still had more to offer... sometimes just one season doesn't feel like enough. So this week, we're talking about BLs that we NEEDED to see a second season of and sharing our thoughts as to why. 

Be sure to leave a comment with which BLs that you think deserved to have a second season 👇

Many of the BL series that we know and love are adapted from novels, manga and webtoons! 📚

This week, Kayla and Alexa sit down to discuss what changes when adapting a written material for TV, what makes a good (or bad) series adaptation and the various roles novel authors play in the adaptation process. They also discuss the BL novels they've read and how they felt about the shows compared to the novel!

Is Heated Rivalry a BL? Is BL considered queer media? If not, what DOES make something queer media and who gets to decide those requirements?

These are just a few of the questions we’ve seen floating around throughout the Heated Rivalry craze and all of the discourse that has come with it. In this episode, we’ll be sharing our thoughts on the question of whether BL is queer media or not. We’ll also be talking about the pros and cons of strict division within media and more!
