Is it really over? Someone pinch me. *Ouch. Ok, eleven episodes it is. Dao Kiaw Duen, The Star Courts the Moon, a lakorn title that is worth chewing over in and of itself, has come to an end. It was a great run, funny and serious at the same time- and with a finale that will make you smile. I hope it was everything you hoped for.

It’s a romcom that is actually funny, with a mixture of melodrama. This is a Broadcast Thai production after all. Plans backfire and a few truths come out, but at the end of the day, how will Dao confront the reality that she’s still lying to Khun Chai Jan? I’m just waiting for the proverbial shoe to drop, and it ain’t gonna be pretty, especially when we’ve been told that Chai Jan hates liars. Bring on the drama (but thank you for keeping it funny, Show!)

Show, why so cute and intense at the same time? Revelations are made, adventures are in store. And there is light at the end of the tunnel, this addicting show, maintaining a consistent 10 point rating in Bangkok, feels like it will be closing out in the next couple of episodes. Boo. But I’d be crazy to say that I don’t want to see how this ends.

It’s Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday. Ah, my cheek hurts. It’s another solid episode for our midweek crack- the only shining, most awesome diversion for hump day. I think I’m still alive from the workweek, although that remains to be seen. Fewer pictures due to P’Fia’s time constraint, but you’ll go on over and watch it anyway, right? So let the fun begin!

You know how I mentioned earlier that Pongjan and Ying Nim’s characters have a lot of potential to develop here, and when acted and directed properly, it can really take off? Yes and yes. Especially regarding Pongjan’s character, he gets even more fleshed out in this episode, allowing for his character write-up and even screen time pertinent to the story itself. Khunchai is still the man, but he best not let a determined Pongjan catch up, because he’s already clipping at his heels. Thankfully there’s all sorts of fun things to stand in the way of Pongjan taking over Khunchai’s number one spot in Dao’s supposed future baby daddy list. And once you find out, try not to laugh so hard.

It’s Wednesday! Who’s doing a happy dance? Yours truly is! I’m doing things a little bit differently this time: watching, recapping and then releasing the recaps as we go along. Reason being, I may not get to the whole episode by the end of the day. The good thing is, you can read along faster, the bad thing is, you don’t get to read it all at once. Time and energy are two very important factors that play into the reason why I can’t spend six hours (at a time) for any particular recaps anymore, but I’ll do my best to get as much done as possible (in between distractions we call life!) So thank you so much for your understanding. Some key points…

Can Dao repair her image? Will Khunchai redeem himself? It’s all in a day’s work of episode 5, and then some.

It has been one long week without Dao Kiaw Duen. This episode makes some headway with the relationship between Dao and Khunchai Jan. The oppositions are mounting, breaking down the fluff and forcing the leads to question the authenticity of their fake relationship. We explore the beautiful moon, true love, and the all-important trust.

No one ever said going against mainstream expectations would be easy. To what extent is Prakai Dao willing to go to in order to fulfill her dreams? It’s almost a moot question, as we watch her, to the horror of her brother and friend, try to pull off this fake relationship with Khun Chai Jantarapanu, and withholding what he must give in exchange for her help. Despite Dao’s continued strength, we start to see semblance of the consequences of going rogue, and we are forced to wonder, will Khun Chai Jan take her hand and tango, or leave her to fend off the admirers and critics alone?

How does one go about this sperm acquisition business, mission ‘find baby daddy’ with a straight face? But that’s what makes this show so funny, Prakai Dao is intent on pursuing her dreams to the extent of hilarity. But reaching her goals, as she is starting to discover, is no walk in the park, especially when you have pesky ex-boyfriend, shameless love interest and hussies standing in your way. Let the catfights (fun) begin.
