Great cast, acting, and story. We can relate as the plot is realistic and very timely.
I simply don't have words to describe how amazing this series is. As a member of the LGBTQ community, I feel deeply honored that this show pushed boundaries to tell our story as a marginalized sector. It's not your typical BL series. "Gameboys" tackled important social issues such as coming out of the closet and the importance of communication in youth development. The main actors are seriously some of the best in the industry. Despite being non-LGBT, Kokoy de Santos and Elijah Canlas portrayed their LGBT characters convincingly. Their emotional scenes are some of the best I've seen in any movie or TV show. Excellent actors.
Just watch "Gameboys." It's only 13 episodes. Really worth your time.

I have been a Bl fan for 13 years now, its not even called BL back then. I have seen tons and tons of Bl series but by far THIS IS DEFINITELY THE BEST! The show is told in a way that is very unique. So much conceptualization has been done here and you can relate to every single character. The cliche BL scenes won't be seen here. There is no dead air, the story doesn't drag and the actors are phenomenal!
If you are still not sure, at least just try watching the first episode. It's literally 10 minutes long and I am sure you won't stop there. That's the thing with this show you always want more and more with every single episode.
and did I say THE ACTORS ARE AMAZING? I didn't? I'll say it again. THEY ARE AMAZING!!!

After watching the Love of Siam in 2007, I got hook to stories and story telling that is not common in a movie or series. That is why, I am on to indie films and underrated movies in the big screen so to speak. These movies opened my mind and heart about emotional turmoils, political and social issues in the country and of the world in general. Furthermore, it also gives me the true meaning of love which indeed grows and finds its way to a person whom it truly belongs regardless of age, color and gender. GameBoys, on this matter, has delivered the elements that I am looking for; given that majority of Filipinos are conservative and not so open with the idea of "Boys Love" or long time ago, was called "Bromance". The actors are very witty, fun-loving and have the vibe that are relatable to both young and old viewers. Elijah Canlas (Cairo) and Kokoy De Santos (Gavreel) are considered newbies in the movies and films industry in the country yet they have shown finess in their acting and delivered what they are expected to do. At the very young age, they are becoming one of the sought after actors and they are making names in the field. Accompanied by the bubbly and beautiful actress Adriana So (Pearl), the series have given us the complete flavor in a BL series. The producers, directors and the rest of the crew have done well in giving the country's first digital series. What else can say? Well, it is broadcast and shown in youtube by the Ideafirst Company for free. What more can you ask for? All in all... it is a milestone and groundbreaking for Filipinos especially now that it is getting the eyes of international audience.
