What we are expecting

(To view posters, please click here)

The three anniversary shows:
BENEATH THE CHARM (30 episodes) Cast: Moses Chan, Gigi Lai, Yoyo Mung, Anne Heung, Mandy Cho & Sharon Chan ---- well, from the cast, you can see this is a show about a guy with 5 girls, clearly, it is a female type show. What other guys are out there? Anyways, I am supporting this one fully, even though I have no love for Yoyo, or Anne or Mandy. But I love the poster, and the title, so let's hope this is going to be a good one.

LIFE MADE SIMPLE (32 episodes) Cast: Roger Kwok, Jessica Hsuan, Bosco Wong, Leila Tong, Raymond Cho & Lo Yuen Yan ---- first of all, I hate the poster, second of all, I hate Roger's hair cut. But, I still put lots of expectations to this one because I am a big fan of Bosco, Leila and Jessica. I am not sure what will be showing for 32 episodes, consider the fact that Square Pegs only lasted 20 episodes. Oh well, let's hope to see Bosco and Leila share lots of screen scenes...

REAL KUNG FU (20 episodes) Cast: Yuen Biao, Maggie Siu, Leung Kar Yan, Gordon Liu, Jack Wu & Timmy Hung ---- did TVB get lazy about translating a English name for a series? Real Kung Fu just doesn't make any interest out of me. Then, analyzing the casts, I only found Maggie Siu, who will drag me to watch this one. But, the poster reminded me of "Find the Light", since I am a big fan of that one and a big fan of Maggie, I might give this series a chance? I still don't know why this one get to be an anniversary show? Is it because of Yuen Biao?

Currently airing:
INTO THIN AIR (20 episodes) Cast: Miu Kiu Wai, Melissa Ng, Kenneth Ma, Bernice Liu, Power Chan & Hui Siu Hung ---- have you notice Melissa is getting more and more leading roles now? More like one after another. Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing. Sometimes, I am getting tired of seeing her in one show after another. Hey, I don't even watch Ron or Raymond series back to back, why should I watch her series back to back? Anyways, I will watch this one, but maybe next month.

May or may not aired this year:
LETHAL WEAPONS OF LOVE AND PASSION (40 episodes) Cast: Raymond Lam, Charmaine Sheh, Sonija Kwok, Bosco Wong, Sharon Chan & David Chiang ---- When is this series EVER going to come out?! I have been waiting for it for the entire year, and I haven't get any news about when it will get aired! Hello! It is getting towards the end of the year now. Usually, TVB doesn't air any grand production towards the end of the year. So, how much longer do I have to wait?

ALWAYS READY (30 episodes) Cast: Ekin Cheng, Bowie Lam, Charmaine Sheh, Shirley Yeung, Lai Lok Yi & Linda Chung ---- I am sending lots of good luck wishes to this series, which has very very little chance of airing in 2005. If it didn't come out in time, I can't nominate Ekin for the year's most welcomed come-back star in my year end poll. Ok, people, we are in October already...

TRIMMING SUCCESS (20 episodes) Cast: Kevin Cheng, Nadia Chan, Sharon Chan, Wayne Lai, Lau Dan & Ching Ho Wei ---- Let's hope this one won't ending up as a "warehouse series (not aired in Hong Kong)" since I am a big fan of Nadia and Kevin. The Chinese name of this series is really interesting, so I have to watch it, see you in 2006! Pretty sure this one will not be aired this year.

WHEN RULES TURN LOSE (20 episodes) Cast: Liza Wang, Myolie Wu, Sammul Chan, Har Yu, Wayne Lai & Patricia Liu ---- Looking at the poster, it reminds me a lot of "Survivor's Law", Myolie even cuts her hair short, just like the hair style she had in "Survivor's Law", that's OK, I can handle it, since it is only 20 episodes. Again, see you in 2006...

    Blogging Hepatitis C
    Nice story over at the BBC on a chap who's blogging about living with Hepatitis C, demonstrating how blogs can be used for a greater good.
    Enjoyed my visit to your blog; I'll come again next week.

    Spent ages getting this web hosting site/blog. Everyone needs web hosting at a fair price.
    Worth a few minutes of your time.

    I'm watching "Into Thin Air" and I really like it. Maybe because I like the people in it. As for Lethal Weapons, I've been waiting to see that for ages as well. Hope it comes out soon.

    Isn't it called "The Charm Beneath"? Cuz that's what it was on the last issue of TVB's programme highlights. Either they changed the name around or they just positioned the words funny on the lastest issue. I hope they don't do that on the real poster. It'll be uber confusing.
