My Secret Agent Husband

In order to try and escape an arranged politically driven marriage Lucas (Andrei Prunila) lies to his father, Albert (Sean McHugh), his arranged father in-law, the corrupt Senator Maverick Thompson (Jeffery Thomas Johnson), and his arranged bride Sophia Thompson (Bri Ana Wagner), that he is actually gay and engaged to his non-existant boyfriend, who after walking in on the mess that is ensuing is declared to be Wyatt (Michael Naizu) who is actually a secret agent working undercover to investigate the corruption going on at Lucas' dads company, Crypto Coin. Despite the deception, secrets, and crimes, Lucas and Wyatt inevitably fall in love for real and face the dangers head on together to save the company and his dad.

This was my first vertical series, and well, the rest is history as they say. This series has everything from cringey dancing, heart warming love scenes, corruption, lies, and hilarious scenes. Andrei Prunila is excellent in his role as Lucas, encapsulating the awkward young man who is having a VERY unplanned sexual awakening perfectly all while trying to save his dad and his company. Michael Naizu had me cackling out loud my first watch through, and the 900 times I have watched since then! And the use on innuendo was top tier.

I loved the way this series managed to include so many different facets, from the homophobic senator who secretly has boys massage a please him. Through to gangs, financial corruption and wrongful imprisonment all while we are watching these two men fumble their way together and somehow fall in love. Sophia (Bri Ana Wagner) having a real drive to be as corrupt and evil as she is, makes for a well-rounded villainess, however we do get to see some funny scenes of her, for example when she tries to break into Wyatts house... Im talking about the hair in the wind...

Don't get me wrong, this vertical show isn't exactly golden globes worthy, but for what it's worth, I went in with terribly low expectations yet it actually really took me aback by how entertaining it was.

The incredibly cheesy script and bollywood-esque direction are for the most part carried and compensated by the two main actors' pretty solid performance to create a piece that doesn't take itself too seriously and fulfills its purpose with lethal efficiency: entertaining you for a while as you're commuting to work, waiting on your doctor's appointment and so on and so forth.

It's sweet, it's ridiculously dramatic, it's fun, all in all it's a very ideal guilty pleasure to enjoy shamelessly.

Wow! The main actors did a great job together; you can see them slowly building their chemistry with each episode. You laugh at the silly scenes and get involved in their awkward scenes. Hopefully, they made a season 2 because it was really necessary, even though it ends everything well. But you finish the series wanting to know more about this crazy love. It was a good experience, and I really enjoyed their acting. They did such a good job in a small amount of time (as small as the budget). I like how they create other small stories that make you laugh as well. Most of the father's scenes are hilarious. It's completely worth watching!

I had never heard of DramaBox before, but kept seeing previews of this on YouTube. I knew it wasn't going to be a regular movie, and figured the acting would be mediocre. So with that in mind, I expected to be bored. But I was pleasantly surprised at how well this kept my attention and how entertaining it was.

It's not your steamy romance, but it has laughter as well as tender moments. Seeing the relationships progress as a result of the circumstances they were dealt was a bit unrealistic given the short length of the series, but it still was good to watch.

Definitely worth a watch, and I hope DramaBox releases more LGBT content!

DramaBox bombarded me with ads and I finally gave in and spent the money for a one week subscription so I could watch the whole series. I was actually pleasantly surprised. Is this serial a little campy & cringe? Yeah, it is. But is it actually charming & likable? Very much so.

I didn't expect to like it as much as I did - I honestly did not expect to get hooked, but here I am writing a review!!! The plot was, as I said, maybe a bit implausible, but it was a great vehicle to the leads' building affection for each other and the ultimate resolution at the end. The two leads an actually felt like they were truly developing feelings for each other and I couldn't help but cheer for them as the plot unfolded. Whoever did the casting and coaching did their job well!
