This series is simply an abject failure. It abandoned all the charm and creativity of Season One and instead it was replaced with a banal and boring journey of childishness and self-centered indulgences.

I am going to come right out and say it: I LOVED THIS SERIES! It is pure escapism and entertained me despite all its cheesiness, tropes, and flat-affect acting. I did not care about any of that. What it did was to allow me for a moment to become a child again and muse. Additionally, whether realized or not, I think this series is ground-breaking for several very important reasons:

This is a surprisingly good series. A bit too short, however. It does not pretend to be anything than what you see. This is no masterpiece, but it gets to a story quickly with some excellent dialogues and exchanges. The acting, sorry to say, is a bit amateurish in parts and has no real depth in the beginning. But towards the end, the two main protagonists become believable and effective.
Another amazing Pinoy BL drama; produced by Ticket2Me, Boys Lockdown is adorably cute and sweet.
