this is just fabulous. earnest lakorn angst, scheming villains, others pushed into desperate acts and scheming, gender balanced cast with central roles for women that drive the plot, family drama oh the drama, found family within the Family, side plot of a plucky young woman trying to single-handedly save her household AND refuse to marry without love, sweet kids, the best brothers, and one more thing but i'll leave that a secret 😉

I'm gonna try to make this a thread. Yay for the ability to edit posts, I suppose? I'll also link in the post(s?) that isn't (aren't?) in order.
Day 2 (Delayed):
Favourite actress discovered in 2023
I've mentioned her before, but Aya Orapan Phongmaykin. She's a face genius. By that I mean, she's just really good at animating her face. It allows her to breathe life to Yiwa, a character that both feels real, and strategically deploys larger than life mannerisms.
I love her portrayal of Yiwa. She's one of my favorite parts of the show.
Honestly, I was having so much trouble with this one initially— then having 2 to 3 candidates, and having trouble choosing. But I think I’ve got this sorted now.
First off #PrimChanikarn Tangkabodee for her role as Fa in #Eclipse. Fa as a character has a lot of range to me. From adventurous, to terrified, to smugly ahead of the game, the role really gave Prim the opportunity to shine, and she did.
