SELECTED POSTS
This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is
actually the index page of this website has
grown into a huge database of my almost
daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to
my heart, including gossips of the most
sordid kind. For your convenience, I have
posted a list of posts which I thought is
pretty informative in my own way that you
might find interesting. The list itself may
be long but those selected few are the ones
I thought drives home the point I wanted to
make. Do check them out in
MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].
SERIES' SUMMARIES
Sometime in 2004 I began
reviewing selected
series in an episode by
episode way, where I
called these reviews
EPISODIC THOUGHTS.
These thoughts are
mostly summaries of each
and every episode with
my opinion of that
episode included in it
as well. I may not
provide the most in
depth summaries but I am
very proud of the fact
that I could keep the
writing on such a long
winded basis each and
every night for the
entirety of the series.
I don't do this for each
and every series though
because it kills a lot
of brain cells, mine as
well as fellow netizens
who often joined in the
discussion by posting
informative stuff. These
thoughts are still open
for feedback and
discussion. Do check
them all out in
REVIEWS where it is
indicated with an
[E]
next to my name.
OFFBEAT STUFF
There is this one
section in here that
features offbeat stuff
that are not
entertainment based. The
section is known as
FUNN STUFF
[COMMENTS & OPINIONS].
PERSONAL FAVOURITES
There are 3 sections in
here that contain my
personal favourites of
all kinds.
THE DDGs [COMMENTS
& OPINIONS] which
features specially made
websites by myself with
info & all related stuff
of my favourite stars or
stars I like to talk
about,
MEDIA & MUSIC FILES
[DOWNLOADS]
which has my favourite
VODs and music files,
most of them are taken

dramas & movies and some
of which I am hosting
for my net friends and

MediaCorp Love Is Beautiful
Permanent link ▫ ▫  
I kinda suspected the actor who plays Le Tian in MediaCorp's Love Is Beautiful isTerence Cao. He may be a great actor now, he may have been wonderful before, but frankly in Love Is Beautiful, it was pure torture watching him act. But he's not the only problem with series.
Jacelyn Tay (is it Jaqueline or Jase-leen?) was wonderful, although it took me some time to be comfortable with her rather revealing off work dress. BUT her foundation on her face is like 10 layers too thick, that it was so distracting.
Qi Yu Wu looked like an Ah Beng, and looked a tad too young for the rather mature looking Jacelyn. His acting is also quite ordinary at this moment of posting.
And I finally saw Rayson Tan! But rather I didn't see, because I am at episode 4 and so far he has very little to do.
Pan Lingling's hair is so in, her acting very bitchy (it was ok) but again her make up is so 80s! I mean why is everybody (as in women) over make-up-ed in here?
And the actor who plays the father (at this moment I forgot his name) was truly wonderful in the movie I so love but truly lacked the authoritativeness as a rather stern but loving father!
Then there's the girl who was raped (I mean pity her), I wonder who is the actress because why must they show rape victims acting like psycho? You know Rou Rou (Vivian Lai) in Holland V? Why? Her acting is truly horrible. The girl who plays her sister is standard fare, anyone can do better.
BUT the worse was actually Terence Cao. He has the look of a rapist, he should switch roles with that guy who plays the rapist. He talks so slow, he rolls his eyes in a very obscene manner (I see them as obscene, you may see different), his acting is truly awful and he looks "gwai gwai shu shu" as if he has something to hide! Why? Why him?
The saving grace other than Jacelyn Tay in a very controlled performance (albeit probably suffocating under the thick powder on her face) is surprisingly another guy with the gwai gwai shu shu look, Tay Ping Hui. I didn't like him at first, but after watching Terence Cao, I count my blessings that at least he's a better actor, better looking, probably taller and looks less suspiscious.
Thus far the plot is interesting (about land) but the rest are standard fare.
And I notice and I have seen about 4 or 5 MediaCorp series straight and I notice, 3 common factors in all series which badly reflects Singapore;
1. full os rapists (as every series has at least one rape/molestation/sexual assault victim)
2. paedophile (towards children or adults with mental capacity of a child) ; and
3. inept police/detective/someone in the business of law and order.
It's quite sick also to watch in this series a very extended version of an ongoing sexual assault, with conflicting scenes. One scene had the victim running far far away, caught, dragged and raped by the sicko. Next segment of the same rape we have the victim casually walking by (not running) and she was dragged, pulled, pushed onto the floor, and the scene slowly lingers on that scene where she is assaulted as she screamed no no no and stop short of showing actual rape. Is that ever necessary at all? To pull up ratings? It serves no purpose, not to show horror except to show some you know such scenes. Because that scene was a memory type scene of the rapist himself, of course he was shown having remorse but an extended scene of such scene in the capacity of the rapist is not really good, it should be her memory (to show the horror she went through) and not his (which implied the pleasure he derived from it). The only consolation is the very brutally real scene as he was WHIPPED. GOOOOOOOOD.
Other than that, whenever Terence Cao looks at a girl, he looks like he is slowly disrobing her and thinking naughty thoughts. Who is this actor? Is his character going to do something bad which explains why he has this look on his face??
I am beginning to appreciate Tay Ping Hui. But none of the actors in this series look remotely like or has the qualities of a star and yes that includes Qi Yuwu. Totally Ah Beng like, but he did better in In the Pursuit of Peace. He should play a very poor man rising to be a very rich man.
