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

all kinds.

ASTRO TV Awards & AR IV
Permanent link ▫ ▫  
ASTRO TV AWARDS
There is this ASTRO TV Awards meant for Wah Lai Toi, ala TVB style. Some nominations are plain ridiculous but it is interesting to see how many stars beg for a nomination, ina good spirited way. Some nominations...
Because WAB has yet to be shown, so no nominations there. It's more like last year's TVB list.
There are Top 20 list (my favourite, Fong Nga Chai, I don't think Pang Sir is in it though Siu Sang is, and there's that dreaded Cheung Ping).
Most Memorable Villain
1. Sonija Kwok in PITNOL
2. Lau Kam Ling in PITNOL
3. Gigi Lai in that what was that series? Black Rainbow? With Ada? (I would vote her, she was memorable as a villain though over acted)
4. Lok Ying Kwan in Golden Faith
5. Sek Sau in Golden Faith
My prediction : Who knows? Probably Sonija.
My choice : Gigi Lai
Why this name's there at all huh? Sek Sau, the worst villain.
Most Memorable Kiss
Yikes!
1. Flora & Francis in TITS
2. Roger & Jess in Square Pegs
3. Gallen & Jess in Golden Faith
4. I think Annie & Chilam in Take My Word For it
5. Shirley & Ron in Find The Light
My prediction : Flora & Francis thus far is winning
My choice : Gallen & Jess, something real was going on between them
Why this name's there at all huh? Flora & Francis, for being the worst and ugliest kiss on screen & Shirley & Ron for being the most unrealistic peck on the forehead, though just a peck BUT really it is in Qing Dynasty, it is in the middle of the street and not even married couples back then would kiss in public. And I hate the sight of Shirley Yeung, the most maid-looking lead actress on TV. Why no worst performance? I would vote her.
Most Memorable Performance by a Lead Actor
Interesting.
1. Francis in TITS
2. Roger in Square Pegs
3. Bobby I think in AR IV
4. I think Kong Wah in KOYAT
5. can't remember
My prediction : Roger
My choice : If Bobby had been nominated for TMWFI, I would say Bobby but I do think Roger deserves another recognition/award
Most Memorable Scene
Debatable at best ...
1. that scene where Nick cries out for Maggie in Ups & Downs In The Sea Of Love (memorable yes for its scenery but very painful scene,Nick was very painful in his screams)
2. that scene where Roger cries when his cake fell to pieces and Jess was hiding somewhere looking at him almost crying
3. the scene where Jess tells Gallen that he can never I think be a guardian star to another girl as they parted ways in Golden Faith
4. I think the scene where Chilam and Annie were looking at fireflies and almost kissed in TMWFI
5. I can't remember,oh yes, the scene where Marco was crying and begging Joyce not to die when Joyce was lying in a brief coma after a difficult birth in AR IV
My prediction : I think Square Pegs is winning
My choice : None of the above. I have my own choices, which I believe is a more credible list because they involve memorable moments ...
1. Bobby walking into his family home, sulking and started to scold everybody, calling them garbage in TWMFI
2. the scene where Roger replied "Making love!" when asked by a teacher what he likes to do during his free time in Square Pegs
3. The confrontation scene between Raymond and Deric over Tavia in Golden Faith (this gets my vote for best acting moment)
4. the scene where Raymond tried to make Gallen suffer (in the board room) and Gallen looked at Raymond, wondering what went wrong with their relationship in Golden Faith
5. the scene where the camera focussed on Jess' expression when Anne told the court how she sacrificed for Gallen in Golden Faith (great scene)
and many more.
I am a bit surprised the scene where Charmaine and Steven supposedly die in PITNOL didn't make it into the list. It won't get my vote though.
MOst Favourite Performance by a lead actress
Sorry fans of Charmaine, no nomination for her, but Nancy Sit's in it. None of them I am particularly fond of. I thought kenix deserved a mention in TMWFI since that is the only series I really love watching her. BUT Joyce Tang for a nod for her performance in AR IV I thnk whilst Ada Choi got 2 or 3 nods in Most Favourite Characters, Bobby 2 nods. In fact in Lead Actor category, not even a mention of Bowie in Vigilante Force or even Tavia. What a list! Who compiled it??
Most Favourite Series
1. Square Pegs
2. TITS
3. Golden Faith
4. TMWFI
5. AR IV
My prediction : Square Pegs
My choice : Between Golden Faith (because of great performances, a bit sore Myolie wasn't mentioned in any of the categories) or TMWFI. My choice would be either one, both a great. Only if Vigilante Force was included, I would be in a very difficult position. Square Pegs is entertaining but compared to TMWFI, VF or even GF, sorry to say, I prefer these 3 over SP any day. But Roger rules. Unless they put in Not Just A Pretty Face, that would be so so difficult for me to choose.
Many more nominations and categories, just can't remember. I still cringe at the scene where Flora kisses Francis, ugliest kiss.
ARMED REACTION IV
Is it me or is this series like a recycled plot, again and again and again? How many times must Siu Sang fall in and out of love? How many more bad luck, jinxes and bad karma must Sam Yuen and Ah Fong go through before they're spared from further pain and suffering? It's so tragic that it is becoming funny.
And this series could boast this; the most dialogue in any one scene, and all are nonsensical dialogue. I am so sick of watching Bobby running after a woman, that is Ada hoping to marry her. he has been doing that for the last 3 instalments, then there's Frankie Lam. I was told he's a nice guy and the way Ada changes boyfriends and Bobby changes girlfrriends in this series is like we change shirts. The only true couple is Joyce and Marco. But it is like I have seen them going through a lifetime in this series, from courtship to rape to marriage to death of a child to many many more bad luck. Why are the writers so cruel?I read Ah Fong will die or disappear (depending if there's going to be AR V). I hope no more sequels. I sat through 1 hour of pure torture so that I can watch Not just A Pretty face. Such a painful long winded series.So sick so sick so sick.
And I am confused.
How old was Siu Sang in AR I? Late 30s right? Maybe 40? In AR IV, Sam Yuen's daughter (that girl with that perpetual smile, annoying after a while and yes I remember her, she was tiny Charmaine in PITNOL) is like what? 12? 11? And they have been married for like 13 years? maybe known each other for 14 years? So Siu Sang should be near retirement now right??
Why can't they find a younger girl or cut the timeline? A bit unrealistic. I mean it is realistic for Fong and Sam Yuen but with Siu Sang in the picture, it is suddenly a twilight zone.
Poor Sam Yuen and Ah Fong. I really like Ah Fong, what a great husband, and I like to watch how Sam Yuen changed from a tomboy to a feminine mother. It's like watching these two grow old and all. But sometimes good things MUST end, and must end it QUICK before the viewers die of overdose. Sorry to say, Ada''s character, Wia Ying Chi is such a caricature.
Boring boring boring.
Give me Not Just A Pretty Face anytime. Absolutely love this series, hope it ends well. DON't TELL ME THE ENDING!!
Imagine this .. Leonardo, people always say LEO but only in HK they call NARDO. WHAT a name!

Patrick Tam , ( Seed of Hope ) ,
Roger Kwok ( Greed Mask ) ,
Roger Kwok , Joey Yung , Kevin Cheng ( Not Just A Pretty Face )
Sonija Kwok , Deric Wan ( Legend of Love )
and dramas like Aqua Heroes , Life Begins At Forty , Lofty Water Verdant Rainbow , Love and Again and C'mom Astro not even any nominations for W Files !!???
Why don't they have everything and aks viewers to vote instead of selecting a few and asking us to vote ?
What if I my fav character is Ko Siu Chit ( acted by Roger Kwok ) in Not Just a Pretty Face instead of Ah Wong from Square Pegs ?
Isn't that unfair of Astro to ask us to vote for our fav characters and it's not even there !? Not everyone like Square Pegs you know .
Patrick Tam definitely deserves a nomination.
Btw Funn, I'm glad that u like this Not Just A Pretty Face. I like it too. Looking forward to your review of this series.
Didn't u say u r going to do an episodic thoughts for TITS? Has it been aired on Astro yet (since it's in the nomination list)?.
Kidd
Kidd, you just revealed something I didn't realise. Yeah ... how on earth they came up with that list?? TITS haven't been shown yet, I think next week so kinda strange....
Errmmm loads of big names coming this way for the awards, I think the winners maybe... aiyah it's all fixed lar...
I thougt maybe series still showing not included but yeah lor...TITS is in there ... so wierd. I am not voting, because so darn expensive. I think 80 cents per sms and you have like how many categories ...But I do like the idea of Charmaine not winning any because I didn't like how she begged for an award during the ad time ...too desperate.
