TVB 2009 Lighting ceremony

Basically, Best actress is just going to fall tothe hands of Shereen Tang San Lai Lai and Best actor is just a fight between Chai Kau and Laughing Gor isnt it? The whole world knows it.

Why do they even need the lighting ceremony even?

TVB really think that Tavia Yueng will be able to defeat the 30 yrs experience Sheeren Tang and against the wishes of all the netizens and TVB fanatics? Forget it! Delaying the award cermoney will not help in pushing away Sheeren Tang with Tavia. Bad choice in their move obviously. Sheeren, after so many years, finally saw a glimpse of light in TVB. Trying to pull her down with 亲生女, Tavia Yueng is obviously not going to work, unless Tavia has some ultimate breakthrough is Scheme of Palace that will awe the TVB community, or else, chances are slim that she will make it.

However, in the race for best actor, it is defintely exciting to see who will make it to the top at the end. Laughing Gor, causes such a phenomenoem that is rare to see in this era of TVB already. His words, his action, his ultimate death, all has affected viewers and netizens so much that people petition against his death, just to let him 翻生。His FB furneral page attracted millions of netizens to pay their last respect to him. TVB even came out with the movie, Laughing Gor 之变节 for him just to satisfy the whines of viewers just to see him again. However, viewers and netizens, being people of forgetful nature, may have already forgotten about Laughing Gor and the waves have calm. The Academy 3 was screen at the first half of the year, which actually IS a long time ago. Luckily for Laughing Gor, the movie was out not so long ago and thus, managed to revive some of the memory that these forgetful animals have for him.

Besides him, the most popular choice will be Wayne Lai, Chai Gau. Kam Guok Hiu Hong, his on screen chemistry with Sheeren Tang is definetely something that is rare on TVB series these days. SImilar to Laughing gor, Chai Gau also have a huge support fan base from the netizen which is evident from the facebook group and online discussion in forums that has been on going, discussing about Chai Gau fate. More importantly, Kam Guok is being aired recently, which mean that people will be more likely to remember it better than Laughing Gor. Nonetheless the outcome, it will be interesting. As for me, i believe that TVB will give the consolation 我最喜爱的男角 to the one without best defintely, just to shut the mouth of fans from both side.

I am watching My Queen 败犬女王。。。

OK, my long over due updates.

First off :

Emergency unit

Cause an uproar in HK viewers. No, not Michael Miu this time. Not Ron or Samuel too. Its Mr Laughing.

Famous laughing GOR!

Millions partition to revive him from his death.
He is now known as the person who has the highest change of being revived next to Jesus Christ.
Some fans started FB group to revive him, but still, Laughing Gor did not make a comeback.

However, new movie, prequel for laughing Gor is in place.

Series wise, very different from its predecessors. Feel more like a TVB version of Infernal Affairs.

Yup, the story is still ok, predictable story cliche lines. But all handsome guys executing them. Its ok.

Nothing much to talk about it, since its just like another cop and undercover show.

Watching The Academy 3. Who can resist Michael Miu for god's sake. Will update when i am done. Now TVB is till 19. I am till 20. Total is 30. Hope to finish soon.

Next up will be entertainment.

Reviews


I finally got around to finish this series which is sitting somewhere on the harddisk for some time. I was always wondering about how one series has got room for this 3 male leads of different character. Well, i finally know how, but abit to my disappointment, there is little of Wu Zun. Who can get enough of him????

Anyway, i am glad that Jerry got around for some breakthrough, to be truthful, i had not seen him since Meteor Garden and in my memory, all he does is having his anger management problem. I am glad it kind of tame down, and his emotion's scene does seems like emotions scene after all.
Main lead position falls to Show Luo as judging from domination of screen time. He does seems to have alot better tearing scenes these days. But he kept his act cute entiques, which some times, i really cannot stomach. But more or less, he is still the sharpest in all the 3 leads, able to remain focus on himself.
They seems to really know how to play basketball. Not bad, quite nice, especially those special effect moves, i like Kung Fu. They had kungfu style basketball. The series was carried with very distinct anime style, fire ball, sudden illlogical twist, moves and images. But for a non anime fan like me, some parts did not work that well, especially the image part of those bad guys, turns me off, big time.
Story is draggy as foresee (which idol drama is not?) Many basketball and technical talks. But there is illustration, so still not that dry.

My Take

The name already tells u that this drama is about computer (click) and house. But it is actually more of a family show then anything else.
They make fun of msn, addiction to computers, facebook (which they call lookface), ebook, computer hacking, security and so on.
They also talk about how books are getting out with the youngster cause of internet and so on....

But the good thing about this show is not about this. But because it is a warmly feeling show. Yeah, its cliche, but it just depends on how it is being carried out that's all.
The family thing is getting a bit too mushy for me but i think that some of the family conflict part is good. It is like something we experience everyday. Different view points that raise arguments, thinking that our parents are out and we know more about stuff.

Short 20 eps series, quite beautifully executed, not much of dragging or wasting of time. Good 20 hours spend on this series.

I feel hype about ATV new series.

I think its been 10 years since i watch a "new" ATV series. The last being My Date with Vampire and the last ATV show i re-watch is also that.
Number of times that i watch an ATV show can be counted with a hand cause it being so rare and sucky most of the time. True, ATV has got real good actors, that beats some TVB First and second line fa-dans and xiu sheng. But that is not enough as a good attractive series take more than that and ATV has trouble doing that.

The cast is good from this series, anybody with sharp eyes will recognise that most of the cast has appeared in TVB most hitted series, 壹號皇庭 Files Of justice 1,2,3,4,5,6.
(Files of Justice series is one of my earliest TVB series that i had watch.)

LOL these posters. Bobby Au Yueng has hair last time! HAHAHAHA.

This show is about court case, lawyers, police, forensics.
Sounds like Files of Justice + Forensic Heroes. Hope it does not comes out too crappy.

Trivia
Lawrence Ng was said to be sued by TVB because he acted this show and also accepted interviews in cantonese even though he still have an ongoing contract with TVB. TVB issued a lawyers letter, wanting him to stop his job with ATV in 3 days time. Lawrence Ng retorted that his contract with TVB has ended in June 2008 and TVB has problems if they extend his contract without his consent.
