My viewing orientation is pan and mostly Thai. Give me a good story and surround the big emotions with warmth and kindness.

I watch for oxytocin not cortisol and thus rate high. 9s and 10s from me are mostly (there are rare exceptions) a combination of respect for how well I think they achieved what they set out to do and how I much I loved the experience of spending some time in that world. Moonlight Chicken stan, for the depths of emotions layered throughout and the way it cradles pain so gently. They made something truly special there <3

Chronically ill and often bed bound.

Some of my favourite and recommended series and lakorns - The Broken Us, Moonlight Chicken, The Shipper, He's Coming to Me, Last Twilight, Ghost Host Ghost House, Not Me, Stay, Rhythm of Life, Enigma, 55:15

If you've never seen a lakorn: Khun Chaai (for all that western audiences look to it for the gay romance, it's primarily a story about women)

Recommended movies because PTWs are full: The Library, Present Perfect: If You Could Turn Back Time, Bad Genius (all directed by Nattawut Poonpiriya); Low Season (delightful comedy horror); May Who? (teenage electricity)
