The inaugural season of Ru Paul’s Drag Race Philippines may be over but it’s not over for us here at Amiciness. We’ll be doing a re-watch of the whole Season 1 of #DragRacePH every week, continuing with the 3rd episode “Pop-off Ate!” Drag Race Philippines S1E3. Uulitin natin ang one of the most legendary girl group performances in Drag Race Philippines, and (one of) the most iconic memes that this episode birthed. So buckle up and may the best Filipina drag queen win! Again! Mabu-Heeey!
I saw a meme saying that Tiktok videos sent by friends are like friend homework. I do believe that the Tiktoks I send are relevant and beneficial to those watching, and customize my Tiktoks based on my friend group or friend’s interests and humor. I am thoughtful like that.
Anyway, I will avoid sending Tiktoks to my friends for now and compile them in a post instead. My dear readers, here’s your friend homework.
1. My Cinderella Moment
For some reason this Tiktok has been getting a lot of engagement. Ginaya ko lang naman yung trend. Pero tawang-tawa mga nakapanuod. HAHA. And madami din nainggit. Tiktok > Reels. Move to the dark side my friends. And follow me. Jk.
If someone were to ask me who my K-pop bias (that’s K-culture slang for your #1 or favorite, usually among the members of a K-pop group), I won’t be able to answer right away. But my Korean actor bias is without a doubt, Kang Ha-neul. I first saw Kang Ha-neul as Hwang Yong-sik in When the Camellia Blooms, which I binge-watched in 2 nights. After that, I just know I had to watch whatever show or movie he is next in.
Anyway, since I am already subscribed to Amazon Prime Philippines to finishThe Rings of Power, I was notified that there is a new KBS show called Curtain Call (커튼콜). Naturally, I clicked on it and see if it’s a Go or No Go.

I’m the type of Netflix subscriber who clicks whatever Netflix hands to me. Even if that means 365 Days. But I’ve reached the age that I could decide to stop watching a series or a movie if I deem it unwatchable. Time is precious, my dears. Netflix just released the British series, The Bastard Son and The Devil Himself.

Spoiler alert for “The Bastard Son and The Devil Himself” pilot!
The Bastard Son and The Devil Himself
Caught between two warring clans: the son of a notorious witch responsible for a deadly massacre tries to find a place in the world – and his powers.
So this was the copy I read. I’m pretty sure that I first read something else but I can’t find it. Anyway. The show is an 8-episode fantasy series. Think Harry Potter x The Misfits x The Irregulars. I almost forgot the title of that last one. I’m sure I’ll forget the title “The Bastard Son and The Devil Himself” in the next month or so. It’s one of those algorithmic shows Netflix has been producing. Not complaining though. Just remind me when/if a new season is out. The show is based on a book called “Half-Bad.”
Side note: The episode starts with Amerie’s “1 Thing” playing. So sabi ko, bakit ang luma ng music!? Tapos flashback pala. HAHA.
The inaugural season of Ru Paul’s Drag Race Philippines may be over but it’s not over for us here at Amiciness. We’ll be doing a re-watch of the whole Season 1 of #DragRacePH every week, continuing with the 2nd episode “Sagalamazon” Drag Race Philippines S1E2. Babalikan natin ang saya ng palo sebo, Flores de Mayo design challenge, and some of this season’s most iconic lines. So buckle up and may the best Filipina drag queen win! Again! Mabu-Heeey!
