Amazon MGM Studios Developing ‘The Girlfriend’ Follow-Up Series ‘The Boyfriend’

Amazon MGM Studios is developing a sequel series to its psychological drama miniseries 'The Girlfriend' titled 'The Boyfriend', Deadline understands.

THE BOYFRIEND really is a TV show like no other. it's not perfect (I hate how they use music, hate how on both seasons they prioritized the worst couples for most of the screentime and am suspiscious of the casting decisions for S02 re: almost everyone knew someone else from before), but it's damn good TV, has a very specific pacing and emotional spacing, and is proper wholesome.

I hope we get a 3rd season.

Also Reality TV ist ja schwierig, aber was ich echt mag und sehr berührend finde ist die Serie "The Boyfriend" aus Japan. Dort wohnen etwa 10 schwule Männer 2 Monate zusammen, es gibt viele gute Gespräche, Tränen und süße Momente. Und es ist eher ruhig und einfühlsam gestaltet und kommentiert.

Gibts auf Netflix (ich weiß auch eher schwierig... )

Schaut das noch wer von euch?

Oder was schaut ihr so gerne?

i have a colleague who I barely see (we're in on opposite days) and I'm in the office today as a special treat (or something) so today is the first time I've been able to talk about #TheBoyfriend with another fan...

We got to gush over Huwei...

Complain about William...

But she's only about three episodes in, so it's not quite the William and Izaya show yet, and I can't talk about what happens going forward...

I've tried to subtly hint about a new (old) arrival
