Hard Nights คืนนี้ผมนอนไม่หลับ (direct translation is I Can’t Sleep Tonight) is a 10-episode Thai LGBTQ+ drama series which will premiere on January 11, 2026. Finally a gay drama from Thailand featuring a middle-aged couple in their 50s… I don’t think this can be classed as a BL drama since it tackles more realistic gay relationship as opposed to fantasy storylines in BL dramas, to me BL dramas are a sub-genre under the LGBTQ+ genre. Having said that, I will still tag this post under BL as well as LGBTQ+, just to confuse you, LOL… No, seriously this is in case readers who consider all Asian gay dramas as BL, they can still find this post under the BL tag…

The Rival I’m Falling For is a 56-episode vertical Western BL series that dropped on December 30, 2025 on a few apps, including KalosTV and DramaBox. I haven’t watched it yet but from the synopsis, it is very similar to Fake It Till You Date It which was just released earlier this month! The protagonist names are also the same, so I am quite sure it is a remake of Fake It Till You Date It!

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – Waterboy
Fans of vertical BL drama Poolboy from earlier this year will be pleased to see that the two lead actors from that series are reunited for another new vertical western BL drama! The 70-episode Waterboy has quite a similar BL story that dropped on December 27, 2025 on ReelShort. Once again, it is another one of the nerdy boy being forced to wear ridiculous skimpy “uniform” in order to serve as a “slave” to the jock of the school… It stars Sky Kawai as Donovan Miller and Declan Clifford as Kaden Russell, and you will recognize another familiar face, Sean McHugh, who also played the dad character in both series of My Secret Agent Husband…

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – No, Your Majesty
More western vertical BL series keeps dropping for the holiday binging! No, Your Majesty is an 81-episode English-language Ukrainian BL series which dropped on December 19, 2025 on MyDrama. This is the app that had the debacle over the clickbait vertical BL series Wicked Game earlier this year! Although they remedied it by re-filming Wicked Game as a full series and launching it by September this year, that app still left a sour taste in my mouth, LOL… That said, both of these series are from Ukraine and their accents are pretty thick, I kept having to look at the subtitles to be sure what they are saying. Also another new Ukrainian vertical BL series starring the two actors from the reboot Wicked Game is scheduled to drop tomorrow on Boxing Day…

Interestingly, NetShort felt the need to change the Chinese names of the protagonists into English names for the English subtitles, LOL… Did they think viewers who don’t speak Chinese are unable to follow the story if the names remain as Chinese?
