There is a FAQ [MAIN] database in this website where you will find info on how to link to this website, answers to some tech problems found in pages within this website as well as a great feature where you can post questions in relevant categories & I'll answer them. Try it out!


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 from Chinese & Korean dramas & movies and some of which I am hosting for my net friends and THE STORYTELLERS [WEBSITES], where you'll find stories written by amateur writers like you and I.

Do check them all out!

I noticed when I come to this site of mine as well as Shaunsation, some links are not updated when I did update them. If you encounter the same problem, please do realod/refresh your browser window.

I will add the Survivors Law review link into my TVB page later.

And thanks for the Shaun related news. Really appreciate your kind contributions.

Hi Funn, I always appreciate reading your TVB reviews. They are very in-depth analyses on the characters and I love your witty and sarcastic remarks. :) Especially the older reviews from 2-3 years ago. You haven't posted as many TVB reviews recently and the recent ones seem more toned down....

I was hoping you would post up a review of Aqua Heroes as you had started the episodic thoughts on this series but didn't continue after the first initial episodes.

As always looking forward to reading more of your reviews!

I think you're the first who spotted the change in my reviews and I really appreciate that. Sarcasm mellows with age, time and expectations. Maybe I am writing for a different set of audiences and frankly I dislike that. I haven't watched too many series these days, not news ones and I am not as eager to write as I was. In fact there are some I want to write but just too lazy to put into words. Thanks for noticing that change. You're right; my best was when I started out, when I was writing to vent my anger and to analyze what went wrong. Nowadays my expectation is so low, I am beginning to wonder do I have an espectation at all?

I need time to ponder about that.

Anyway I won't be writing for Aqua Heroes because I watched bits and pieces and frankly my impression is not positive. I can't write without watching it in whole so I have to apologise; no review for Aqua Heroes.

Thanks again. And who are you?

Hi Funn, my name is Jody and I am based in New York city. I posted the above comment btw. I have followed your page for a few years now, when your page was still at Geocities, but have never left a comment. In most cases I guess I like to remain anonymous. :) I have always liked reading reviews online because I like to see how others react to shows I have seen. In most cases, people who attempt to write series are either a fan of the show itself or of the various actors, so most posted reviews are positive in general (take SPCnet.tv for example).

I thought your reviews were hilarious to read (in a good way) since no one else wrote with your level of sharp wit on TVB series. The backgrounder on history that you wrote for various ancient series was very enlightening as well.

I was curious about what you had to say about Aqua Heroes because I started reading your episodic thoughts and found them amusing. I enjoyed the show and found the energy the young actors displayed to be fun to watch. Although it's not a great series, but it was okay to watch. I liked Bosco's character in the show as well; he is really a likeable new talent at TVB. Although his popularity seems to have slipped a little nowadays.

Hehe I have to say I like the new format of your website as well, since it promotes your personal interests. A website is only fun if you devote time in the areas which you feel is worth your time. And in this case, if there is declining interest in reviews, then that's ok as long as you're happy. I know reviews take a long time to write and sometimes the low quality of the series really isn't worth that effort.

The only thing I ask is perhaps to upload the reviews that you have already written in the past and make sure the links work so that people can continue to read your great reviews. :)
