I'm trying to subscribe, but each time I key in my handphone number to receive the verification SMS, it says there is an problem and asked me to try again later. This has been happening several times over several days now, even after I tried using different handphone numbers. 

 

I tried doing a live chat with Netflix customer service but they claimed the problem is with the telco, even though I've been receiving SMS from everyone and anyone else without problem at all. Other than shifting the blame to the telco, they are absolutely useless. 

 

Anyone knows what is happening here? Any solutions? 

[begleitung]

No, actually i think i subscribed online in the past. I dont even know how 2 provide them with a feedback etc. Their contact info seems not so obvious.

I like a movie called Merli. This movie about philosophy. But the side story is the character of "Bruno", the son of Merli. Bruno is gay, and become openly gay because of his father teaching. He is in love with his classmate who also closed friend of him, Pol. Let's watch it and you will understand the good of this movie.

[begleitung]

Ok, i hope i can find it. Thks!!

[begleitung]

Unfortunately that film, merli is not available here. Damn censorship or copyright or whateva. 

[caindukker]

I'm watching Ossan's Love. It's a Japanese comedy short series. Gay and funny. Plus the main character is just so cute and handsome. Pretty good story too.

I have not watched it either and dont intend to. 
 

Dogs of Berlin sbout the police and underworld is good. Perfume has lots of nude bodies. Germans r not prudes. 

[Cube3]

Money Heist: 2016 to 2019 four seasons. Starts with robbing the Royal Mint of Spain, but blossoms into loves and back stories of the gang...uninhibited sex, adultery, gay love etc. with ideologies on systemic oppression, resistance...excellent storyline, though slow to start. But heart-warming and uplifting

[JYAG-sim]

Ok, I'm gonna list my favourite series in one breath 💨:

 

1) The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (3 seasons thus far)

2) Stranger Things (3 seasons thus far)

3) 13 Reasons Why (4 seasons)

4) Castlevania (3 seasons thus far)

5) Kingdom (2 seasons thus far)

6) Sex Education (2 seasons thus far)

7) The Umbrella Academy (1 season, Season 2 soon)

 

There're also series like 'Pose', 'Doom Patrol', 'Love, Victor', 'Stargirl' and my most recent favourite 'Modern Love'. They're not on Netflix though.

Ozark, 3 seasons, best TV show ever.

[tomcat]

I like the game/variety shows more.

 

The Floor is Lava - Based on our childhood game where we jump from furniture to furniture, whoever touch the floor is killed by lava.

Awake - Gameshow where contestants stay awake for 24 hrs then have to do challenges.

 

Beastmaster - Physical challenges

 

Titan Games - Physical challenges with hotter contestants. Very good to watch before gym, I can lift more afterwards, haha.

[begleitung]

Also recently finished Stranded - Thai series. Not bad, good brainless fun.

 

Nice cinematography, beautiful shots of the island (for us who cannot travel) and surprisingly good production and effects.

 

And alot of pretty young girls and boys. The lead is so cute for an island boy.

 

 

[Guest Guest]

the most in demand netflix show now is called Under One Roof! The world is head over heals with this super witty iconic sitcom.

Same here. Also enjoyed Money Heist and am now going through Suits - enjoying most of it. Friends tell me I should watch Sex Education next.

[CharlesClark]

Two popes was a really great movie. Sex education is really promising. I am watching Money Heist now.

[Guest Netflix Recco Guest]

I would definitely recommend Sense8. It fundamentally talks about having compassion and understanding one another despite our differences, and it also features a great cast of people with varying sexual orientations. Easily one of the better shows out there for sure! 

[Tempted69]

Grey's Anatomy

[bonhomie]

Check the trailer first to see if we have the same taste 😂
 

Versailles

Outlander

Dark

The Last Kingdom

Elite

Vikings

Money Heist

I like Elite. A spanish teen drama with hot bods and gay/bi characters 2.  

 

borgen.  A danish political drama with realistic plot. 
 

 

sing it spanish : karaoke like contest

 

osamu : main stream light Gay jap drama

Are you using the torrent to do the downloading?  I used to get torrents from Piratebay and Kickass, but, both not availbale nowadays. Could you please share with us where did you get the torrents from? I"m more into high definition files(both audio and video), such as MKV type of files. Thanks.

That is not 2 bad. I thought it was very long, lol. 
 

yesterday i started on a thai show too, it is new, and i binged watched at least four episodes. About a guy who asked another to be his fake boyfriend to fend off another one; he himself is not gay. Or so he thought....

Haha, so complex. Actually in most Thai shows, they are so advanced and evolved.

 

There is a 3 way couple in Stranded, 2 guys +1 girl. And at least 2 other gay/lesbian pairings.

 

It reflects the reality of how things are in a country where sexuality and gender identification is fluid.
 

Very progressive, where as in Singapore, gay characters are still villains in dramas, or straight out crazy or problematic. lol

Lol, no, it is not complex, maybe i just did a bad job of explaining the plot. It is just a boy likes boy story, with convincing (n cute ;  )  characters. Yes, the thai movie industry is way more progressive, despite having lower budgets etc, i thinkk. 
 

stranded sounds really gd. It will be on my list next after i m done with this current one. A cure for the wanderlust now 2. 
 

exactly, if there was an lgbtq character in the first place 4 the local productions here. Mayb they r boundd by the censors etc. Still the storyline r usually zzzz.. 
 

The new thai series above is called 2gether the series. Not 2b confused with the relity /travel show, 2gether. That one is gd 2, starring both gd looking korean and taiwanese.

Just don't watch 'Double World'.

Got deceived into watching that movie cos it was trending and omg, what a massive waste of time.

 

Incoherent plot, poorly written one dimensional characters and terrible acting (especially from Henry Lau). Only redeeming parts were the decent-ish action set pieces and the CGI was relatively decent for an Asian movie (still not Hollywood standard though). 

 

After went to do some research and realised that the only reason the movie was trending was because it starred Henry Lau, who is some super popular idol who frankly, should stay away from acting cos he can't fucking act and he has no screen presence. 

[begleitung]

Does this henry lau look hot tho?

Was also "cheated" to watch this movie due to it popularity. I didnt find henry lau hot, but there is a scene why they showed his abs. Hot bod, but looks ok. In fact, i find peter ho hotter in the show

[begleitung]

Is this a local production? Nvr heardd of of the actors. 

[Gayleo]

No it's a Chinese movie.

 

To me, Henry Lau is very average looking but ya, his body is nice. Unless you are a fan of his music, doubt you will find him attractive.

[begleitung]

Ic. 
 

he is canadian apparently. Nice body a dliok korean.

Yah, he was a member of Kpop boyband, Super Junior M, and one of the hosts for I Live Alone - Korean variety show.

 

Strange but I never noticed him for his physique, but more his pillow lips.

 

He either never show off his body, or actually very lean so it does not show.

 

 

 

[tomcat]

pretty boy, and he knows it. haha
 

 

[Guest Lau Pok Gai]

 

[begleitung]

Lol, is this a henry lau fan club?

 

anybody watches jap dramas or movies on Netflix?  Dere r so few of them compared 2 the korean ones. 

[begleitung]

I find Dating around is nice. Five blind first dates, only one second date. 
 

not superficial or boring.
