Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – The School for Bad Boys
The School for Bad Boys is a 64-episode western vertical BL series that dropped on October 3, 2026 on ReelShort. This is the first of a trilogy series and the two sequels will premiere later this month. Hold on to your seats – this new series has a star-studded cast with Declan Clifford, Greg Duffy, Cayman Cardiff and Ben Ubinas. I also love that ReelShort is now making trilogy series, so we don’t have to wait and wonder if there will be a sequel or not like in the early days of western BL!

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – Honey Cut
Honey Cut is the second of the Lyonesse Trilogy vertical series based on the novel by Sierra Simone which will drop on September 15, 2026 on ReelShort. Once again, as I’ve mentioned in the post for Salt Kiss (the first of the Lyonesse Trilogy), this is NOT strictly a BL series, but a LGBTQ+, MMF (Male-Male-Female) microdrama series with bisexual polyamorous triad (ménage a trois) relationship dynamic.

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – Salt Kiss
Salt Kiss is a LGBTQ+ vertical series which will premiere on September 6, 2026 on ReelShort. OK, strictly this series is not BL but more correctly LGBTQ+ series even though I have it under the Random Ramblings on BL Dramas banner – I just don’t want to complicate my posts too much with too many categories, LOL… The drama series is based on the novel by Sierra Simone, which is the first of the Lyonesse Trilogy to be adapted into microdrama series. This will be followed by Honey Cut and then Bitter Burn later this month, also to be released on ReelShort. The Lyonesse Trilogy is a contemporary, dark, and highly erotic reimagining of the myth of Tristan and Isolde. The core relationship is not just purely LGBTQ+, but it also involves MMF (Male-Male-Female) bisexual polyamorous triad (ménage a trois) relationship dynamic.

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – Altarboy
Altarboy is a 64-episode western vertical BL series that dropped on August 27, 2026 on ReelShort. Well, this is something new for the vertical BL series, forbidden romance with religious theme, and forevermore drama with real actors which is becoming rarer and rarer in recent months… Also what’s with the xxxboy title, we already have Waterboy, Stableboy and now Altarboy, LOL, and Declan Clifford is in all three of them, AND here in this new series Cayman Cardiff is a hot priest…

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – Fire on Ice
Fire on Ice is a 56-episode vertical western BL series that dropped on August 12, 2026 (US time) on DramaBox. Yes, it is another drama set on the ice hockey rink, but at least this is with real actors… How many more ice hockey dramas are we going to get, LOL…

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – Love in the Ruck
Love in the Ruck is a 60-episode dark romance western vertical BL/LGBTQ+ series that dropped just a few hours ago on June 25, 2026 (US time) on MyDrama. This is another sport BL, but thankfully NOT inside the gazillion ice hockey rinks in the recent history of vertical series, instead it is set on the rugby pitch which I think is the first time in vertical dramas. I don’t know if calling these western vertical dramas as western BL series is strictly correct, yes they have BL elements but most of them have very macho actors in them compared to the traditional image of Asian BL from its Japanese influence that has more effeminate looking protagonists with pale skin… Anyway these “western BL” vertical series are still telling fantasy storylines instead of a more realistic LGBTQ+ representation of the real world, so I will continue to label them as western BL series, LOL…
They’re rivals on the same team. They hate each other. Everyone else can feel the chemistry.

Random Ramblings on BL Dramas – I Kissed a Star and I Liked It
I Kissed a Star and I Liked It is a 66-episode dark suspense age-gap western vertical BL series that dropped on June 19, 2026 (US time zone) on MyDrama. Also, MyDrama has another LGBTQ+/BL one (looks like rugby BL?) coming up in the next week or so! I can’t believe it, Pride Month is spoiling us with so many LGBTQ+/BL series with real actors that I have a traffic jam of posts lined up for the coming week… Keeping me busy but worth it, LOL…
